GOD had me receive a copy of your letter to conventioneers in Chi.,
which again proves the need of the Spirit unction upon your team.
 
GOD is nowhere in the writing of your letter: witness the comment,
"the anointing upon Jesus," as Jesus our GOD gives us (Jn14 level + up) anointing.
 
GOD in Jn3:7 is clear we "must" be anointed "to see" Jn3:3; 14:15-23 1Jn2,
so, maybe your letter meant to read, "the anointing from Him" 1Jn2:20-27.
 
GOD's holy covenant is with the holy seed, His 3rd part, copying Him 1Jn2:6,
He is "separate from sinners" and mere anointed Heb7:26 1Jn3:4-10 Mat7:21-23.
 
so

 
GOD's anointing is essential: to (or yet to) abide 1Jn2:24,27, see the Greek,
to grow up into Him Eph3:17a; 4:13b,15 till truly 4:24+5:27, then His 1Jn3:9.
 
            again we ask
 
if GOD truly called you, why do you not understand the Bible?
 
if GOD truly called you, why do you copy Judas and not Paul, Rom9?

Is45:7...I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the LORD, do all these.

 
GOD the Creator fully intended man to be challenged, to test our love for Him,
beginning with Adam facing temptation from our ongoing adversary Gen2+3.
 
GOD the Creator allowed sin to enter man, so subsequent "created man" or offspring
is His ongoing creation Is45:7, yet contrary to His divine, holy, pure will            ...so
GOD the Creator foreordained a redemption plan to satisfy His holy will, for a few
who forsake all to do His will, thru obedient faith in His grace, love, power         ...till
 
GOD the Creator literally recreates our inner being, killing our Adam nature, to join
Him Jn15; 17:20-23, to truly partake 1Cor10+11 2Cor4:11-7:1 Eph4:24 2Pet1:4, to sup Rev2+3.
 
GOD the Creator continues to test our love for Him; some attain the Jn14 1Jn2:27 level,
but very few grow into Jn15 1Jn3:6 level, so very few are truly His Zech13:9.
 
GOD the Creator fully expects most fail, so are essentially "created" to fail,
fulfilling Rom9, despite His freely given grace, love, power, so Zech13:8.
 
GOD the Creator wills all believers repent 2Pet3:9b, but very few obey
His command Lk13:3,5 Acts2:38; 26:20, so "created" for dishonour, wrath Rom9.
 

Rom9...13 As it is written, "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated."
14 What shall we say then? Unrighteousness with GOD? Certainly not!
15 For He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion."
6 So then not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of GOD who shows mercy.
17 For the Scripture says to the Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth."
 

18 Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.
19 You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? For who has resisted His will?"
20 But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against GOD? Will the thing formed say to Him who formed, "Why have You made me like this?"
21 Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?
22 if GOD, wanting to show (His) wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction.
 

23 And that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory, (Rom8:29)
24 Us whom He called, not of the Jews  only,  but  also  of  the Gentiles?
25 As He says also in Hosea: "I will call them My people, who were not My people, and her beloved, who was not beloved."
26 "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, 'not My people,' there they shall be called sons of the living GOD."

 

 
family teaching #6: love
 
 
GOD's agape or perfect love demands we obey
 
 

Deut
11

26 "Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse:
27 "The blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your GOD which I command you today;
28 "And  the   curse,  if   you   do  not   obey the commandments of the LORD your GOD, but turn aside from the way which I command you today.
 

Mat
22

36 "Teacher,   which    the   great commandment in the law?"
37 Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the LORD your GOD with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind."
38 "This   is   first    and   great commandment.
39 "And second like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'
40 "On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."
 

Jn
10

17 Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life.
 


15

 
9 "As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.
10 "If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.
11 "These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and your joy may be full.
12 "This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
14 "You are My friends if you do whatever I command you."
 

 

1Cor
13

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
2 And though I have prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so  that  I  could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
4 Love suffers long, is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
5 Does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
6 Does not rejoice iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
7 Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails. But whether prophecies, they will fail; whether tongues, they will cease; whether knowledge, it will vanish away.
9 For  we  know  in   part  and  we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know.
13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these, love.
 

 
 
 

1Jn2...5 whoever keeps His word, truly the love of GOD is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.

Rom
13

8 Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.
9 For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not covet," and if any other commandment, are summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
10 Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love (is) the fulfillment of the law.
 

Gal
5

14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
 

Eph
3

that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
18 May be able to comprehend with all the saints, the width and length and depth and height -
19 To know the love of Christ which passes knowledge.
 

1Jn
4

11 Beloved, if GOD so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
12 No one has seen GOD at any time. If we love one another, GOD abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.
13 By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.
16 And we have known and believed the love that GOD has for us. GOD is love, and he who abides in love abides in GOD, and GOD in him.
17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.
19 We love Him because He first loved us.
20 If someone says, "I love GOD," and hates his brother, he is a liar, for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love GOD whom he has not seen?
21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves GOD love his brother also.

 
 
 
 
 
Deut  
34

10 But since then there has not arisen in Israel a prophet like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face,
 

2Chr  
7

14 If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
 

Job
33

24 Then He is gracious to him, and says, 'Deliver him from going down to the pit; I have found a ransom;'
25 His flesh shall be young like a child's, He shall return to the days of his youth.
26 He shall pray to GOD, and He will delight in him, he shall see His face with joy, for He restores to man His righteousness.
28 He will redeem his soul from going down to the pit, and his life shall see the light.
30 To bring back his soul from the pit, that he may be enlightened with the light of life.
 

42

5 I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees You.
 

Jn
16

16 A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.
 

2Chr 
7

14 If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
 

Lk
13

3 I tell you, no; but unless you all repent you will all likewise perish.
5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.
 

Acts 
2

38 Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." (Rom6:23)
 

26

18 'To open their eyes, to turn from darkness to light, and the power of satan to GOD, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.'
19 Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,
20 But declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to GOD, and do works befitting repentance.
 

 
family teaching #7: true heirs
Part 1
 

Rom8..14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of GOD, these are sons of GOD.
15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."
16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of GOD,
17 And if children, then heirs - heirs of GOD and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer, that we may also be glorified together.

1Jn3..8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of GOD was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil (in us).
9 Whoever has been born of GOD does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of GOD.
10 In this the children of GOD and the children of the devil are manifested: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of GOD, nor he who does not love his brother.

 
GOD's holy, eternal covenant from Gen15 applies to true descendants of the faith, never
mere offspring (witness Ishmael and Esau), tho they claim to believe, but are false.
 
GOD's covenant continues in spiritual Israel or sons of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob or true Jews
Deut10:16; 30:6 Rom2:29 Col2:11, so Rom11 Rev3:9, as very few come or grow to full belief.
 
GOD's standard in Abraham demands we "walk" Rom4 Jam2, till we qualify Rom6,
to belong to Christ Gal3,4,5, then are we truly His children, born of Him, His heirs.
 
GOD's very few true heirs copy Him in all things, daily overcoming all evil.
 

Zech13..9 I will bring the third through the fire, will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, 'This My people;' and each one will say, 'The LORD my GOD.'

2Cor6..17 Therefore "Come out from among them and be separate, says the LORD. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you."
18 "I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the LORD Almighty."

 
Note: Ps1:5
Rev16:19; 18:4

1Pet4..17 For the time for judgement to begin at the house of GOD; and if with us first, what will the end of those who do not obey the gospel of GOD?
18 Now "If the righteous one is scarcely saved, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?"

see Concepts #2
see Concepts #5
 
GOD's hard standard to be just or right is clear in Rom2:13; 6:16, rarely believed, lived,
taught in the current church, so very few are truly His people, pure, holy, copying Him.
 
GOD's true people are free Mat1:21 Gal1:4; 4 Rom6, know Him Deut34:10 Job42:5 1Jn3:2,6; 5:20,
blessed Mat5 Rev20:6 Rom9, endure Mk13:13 Rom10:13 Heb3:6,14 Rev20:4, thru Rom12:1,2.
 
GOD's true house, people, temple is His 3rd part, His holiest Heb8:2; 9:3, 10:19-22,
His Zion 1Cor3:9,16 Eph2 Heb12:22,23 Rev21:2,3,22, till Mat24:22 Rev6:9-11; 11:7; 19.
 
GOD in 2Pet3 promised new heavens, in Lk23:43 promised Paradise (2Cor12:4), as in Rev21:1.

family teaching #7: true heirs
Part 2
 
GOD's 3part church Jn14:6 Mk4:28, or global Babylon 1Pet5:13 Rev, is being ruled thru His
promised shepherds, overcomers, 7 eyes, yet they fear and obey Him 1Cor9:27 Phil2:12 or Heb6; 10.
 
GOD's true servant-shepherds have incredible spiritual power Rev11, if they obey Christ 100%,
as co-workers with Him, for others' souls, since most believers only spirit saved Mat10:28 1Cor5:5.
 
GOD's heirs gladly copy Paul Acts20:18-35, sharing and teaching all Acts26:18-23 Col1:28,29,
since He comforts His own 2Cor1:3-12; 4:11-7:1, so we refuse satan, self, sin that we overcome Rev2; 3.
 
GOD's heirs act in His authority Mat16:19; 18:18 Jn20:23 to forgive, but have no power
of themselves, apart from Him, to do His work of baptism for the remitting (or ceasing) of sin, Acts2:38.
 
GOD's heirs point the hard way to His effectual work in the obedient faithful, as He
alone fire baptizes, circumcises, sanctifies thru Job Acts14:22 Rom6, taking away sin.
 
GOD the Son bore witness to the Father's work Jn5:36; 9:3; 10:25-38, as He was then in flesh, and
pointed to Spirit power works available thru obedient faith Jn6:29; 10:17,18; 14:10-12; 17.
 
GOD the Son was manifested 1Jn3:5,8; 4:9, that He "might" bestow Spirit gifts, see Gal1:4,
as Spirit works must be experienced personally, hence 1Jn1:9 "may forgive, may cleanse."
 

1Jn3..5 And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.

8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of GOD was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil (in us).

1Jn4..9 In this the love of GOD was manifested toward us, that GOD has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.

 
GOD's heirs truly obey Him, believing His command, "sin no more" Jn5:14; 8:11,
till their sin is truly taken away, then may enter our holy, pure Christ.
 

Jn5..14 Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you."
 
Jn8..11 Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more."

 
family teaching #7: true heirs
Part 3
 
GOD's true heirs are His spiritual Israel, sons of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob or true Jews,
grafted into Christ thru obedient faith, never mere mouth or lukewarm-anointed.
 
GOD's 3rd part is holy, pure, fully believing in His grace, love, power, as Abraham,
tho most claim that mere confession is required, since Christ died and saved us from sin.
 
GOD's 3rd part truly live the gospel, as Christ; not making a pretense, merely talking,
as most in the current church, making false claims, but destined to hell.
 

Rom11..16 For if the firstfruit holy, the lump also, and if the root holy, so the branches.
17 And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,
18 Do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, you do not support the root, but the root supports you.
19 You will say then, "Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in."
20 Well. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear.
21 For if GOD did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.

22 Therefore consider the goodness and severity of GOD: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
23 And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for GOD is able to graft them in again.
24 For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who natural, be grafted into their own olive tree?
25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;
27 For this My covenant with them, when I take away their sins."

 
Rom12..I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of GOD, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to GOD, your reasonable service.
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what that good and acceptable and perfect will of GOD.

 
GOD's true heirs overcome "the wicked one;" impossible for mouth + most anointed,
due to their lack of obedient faith, so join Esau and Judas thru hell into outer dark.
 
GOD's overcomers see His glorious promises Rev2; 3, never mouth + most anointed,
since most believers are outside Christ and despise His rule, so Lk19:27 2Thes1:8,9.
 
GOD's overcomers share in His inheritance Rom8 Rev21:7, never mouth + most anointed,
since they refused Christ's offer to be fully saved 1Thes5:23 Rev2; 3, to be His body, bride, etc...
 

Rom8..28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love GOD, to those who are the called according to purpose.
29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.
31 What then shall we say to these things? If GOD for us, who against us?
32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

36 As it is written: "For Your sake we are killed all day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."
37 Yet in all these things we are more than overcomers through Him who loved us.
38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,
39 Nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of GOD which is in Christ Jesus our LORD.

 
1Jn2..13 I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one.

14 I have written to you, fathers, because you have known Him from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of GOD abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.
 
1Jn5..4 For whatever is born of GOD overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world - our faith.
18 We know that whoever is born of GOD does not sin; but he who has been born of GOD keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.

 
Rev21..7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his GOD and he shall be My son.
