A beloved brother was a little late today. We joked that he was a latter day Saint. He mentioned the prophecy of Joel which ties into the latter day Saints.
Jol 2: v28. And it shall come to pass afterward, [that] I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
V32. And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of Yahweh (Yahweh of the Old Covenant was Messiah. 1Co 10: v4. And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Messiah.) shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as Yahweh hath said, and in the remnant whom Yahweh shall call.
Peter quotes the same.
Act 2: v1. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
V2. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
V3. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
V4. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues (different languages), as the Spirit gave them utterance.
V12. And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
V13. Others mocking said, These men are full of wine.
V14. But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:
V15. For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day (9am).
V16. But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
V17. And it shall come to pass in the last days (the last 2 - 3,000 years since Messiah's death), saith Messiah Yahshua, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh (called at that time): and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
V21. And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of YahwehShua shall be saved.
V22. Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Messiah of Nazareth, a man approved of Yahweh the Father among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which Yahweh the Father did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
V23. Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of Yahweh the Father, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have impaled and slain:
V24. Whom Yahweh the Father hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
V32. This YahwehShua Messiah hath Yahweh the Father raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
V33. Therefore being by the right hand of Yahweh the Father exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
V34. For David (physical death; body returns to dust and the spirit or mind returns to the Father asleep: Ecc 12: v7. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto Yahweh who gave it.) is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, Yahweh the Father said unto my Yahweh the Son, Sit thou on my right hand,
V35. Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
V36. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that Yahweh the Father hath made that same Messiah, whom ye have impaled, both YahwehShua and El.
V37. Now when they heard [this,] they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men [and] brethren, what shall we do?
V38. Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of YahwehShua Messiah for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit (Spirit of Messiah).
Joel’s prophecy also has future implications. The words “all flesh” could also be speaking of the millennium. Peter mentioned the last days which could also include the Millennial Sabbath which is a day, and the Last Great Day which is another day or a thousand year period. Everyone who is not one of the 144,000 Saints will have their physical life extended into the Millennial Sabbath and learn everything there is to know about our Creator since the evil spirit is put away. The only thing entering your brain will be of the Holy Spirit!
Psa 145: v21. My mouth shall speak the praise of Yahweh: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
Jer 31: v34. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know YahwehShua: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith YahwehShua: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
V35. Thus saith YahwehShua, which giveth the sun for a light by day, [and] the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Yahweh of hosts [is] his name:
No growth of Messiah will occur in humans at that time (during the Millennial Sabbath) since the adversary is put away. There's no overcoming. Overcoming the adversary and repentance is mentioned in Revelation, chapters 1 through 3, over and over to the 7 True Assemblies (Assemblies that are being perfected). This allows the growth of Messiah in you. Gal 4: v19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until YahwehShua Messiah be formed in you.
A sister mentioned the first hundred years of the Last Great Day the prophecy of Joel will apply. When the adversary is let out during the first hundred years of the Last Great Day will be another chance for people that have learned about our Creator perfectly for a thousand years during the Millennial Sabbath to have their chance to overcome the adversary and be part of the family as part of the Innumerable Multitude. Thus, Joel's prophecy of the Holy Spirit being poured out would also apply to the first hundred years of the Last Great Day. It's obvious that more Holy Spirit will be required to overcome the adversary.
Thus the latter-day Saints are all the Saints since the first Pentecost of the New Covenant involving Peter.
Thus Saints of the 144,000 are ones that have overcome and have Messiah fully formed in them by the 7th Trump.
There will be Old Covenant Saints as well as part of the 144,000.
Jhn 10: v16. And other sheep (Old Covenant Saints) I have, which are not of this fold (New Covenant Saints): them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, [and] one shepherd (YahwehShua Messiah).
All flesh not part of the 144,000 will have their physical life extended into the Millennial Sabbath and be perfectly begotten in YahwehShua.
And if they're able to overcome the adversary when he is let out during the first hundred years of Last Great Day, they'll have their chance to be in the family as one of the Innumerable Multitude. They would be another type of New Covenant Saint, much like the Levites (symbolic of the future Innumerable Multitude were in service to Aaron and his sons the priests symbolic of the future 144,000 Saints).
Mutual voluntary submission and service to one another with a definite chain of command top down from Father Yahweh.
Father-Son-144,000 Saints-Innumerable Multitude Saints-Rest of creation purified by the lake of fire and living outside the kingdom family eternally, including the fallen angels in the New Heavens and Earth.
HalleluYahwehShua!
