“Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour
thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live
long on the earth.” Eph.6:1-3 Among the supreme aspirations given
to humanity is the desire to have children to care for and love, and to carry forward to future generations the life of their
parents at their passing. This stands among the most profound needs in our emotional
constitution: to have the comfort in the knowledge that our name and our posterity continue, to live, to serve, and to love.
Many a life has turned from one of a reckless course to one of integrity to see to the blessing, protection and happiness
of their child. There is no greater wave in love’s display than when a mother holds and nurses her baby. The depths
of her love for her baby goes far beyond human language. And there is no greater drive for a father than to guard his vulnerable
child from the many threats in this world.
GOD affirms this heaven-born desire in a variety of ways. He took special precautions to preserve the lineage of every
family. From the beginning the gift of life’s perpetuation has been provided by GOD: “And God blessed them, and
God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of
the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.” “For thus saith
the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not
in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.” Gen.1:28; Isa.45:18. But with the entrance of sin, the increasing weakness
of man’s character to live up to his heaven-born aspirations has been a constant threat to life’s security and
happiness. So GOD gave to man the tangible reminder of the virtue that our conscience has always acknowledged as righteous,
but had become so depraved over succeeding generations that a new heavenly influence needed to be introduced: “And he
gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone,
written with the finger of God.” Ex.31:18. It is this Law that GOD promises to write in every willing mind and heart
through the power of the Holy Spirit. Within
the boundaries of the Ten Precepts of Jehovah is found every blessing, including the sacrifice of Jesus Christ: “the
Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Jn.1:29. The Ten Commandments commanded GOD Himself to save His
children from sin. This is why they stand harmonious with His character, whose perfect display is found in the life and love
seen in Jesus Christ. The Bible declares
that anything that threatens the security and perpetuation of life, be it lies, theft, war, pollution, abortion, homosexuality,
drug addiction, etc. GOD calls it sin. And men need to take GOD’S wisdom to heart in these issues of life's security.
Every safe boundary given to preserve life is revealed in His Word.
While the Apostle Paul focused on identifying the Ten Commandments as the means of Judgment against sin, the Apostle
James referred to them as the “law of liberty” (Ja.2:8-12) on whose foundation rests eternal life. And so, to
step outside of the boundaries of the Law's jurisdiction to bless life is to abandon the security of life that is received
through their jurisdiction. In the
long history of men circumventing GOD’S Holy Law is seen every corruption that has ever existed in government, business
and religion. The rise and fall of every nation can trace its steps to ruin with its increasing allowance of sin to rule within
its borders. Every man who denounces
their authority and leads others to stand with him in his rebellion, the Spirit of GOD can have no place in that soul. This
is because sin is seated on the throne of their heart; and GOD and sin cannot share the same throne. And yet, if all people
from every nation upheld the virtue that GOD calls for from every man, woman and child, prisons would be turned into gardens
and every weapon of war dismantled. Bible prophecy assures that one day this everlasting liberty will come to rule the Earth.
But today, most everyone pursues
a belligerent posture against GOD’S Law. As children will test the boundaries of disobedience until the hand of restraint
comes on them, so men in leadership roles stretch their rebellion against GOD'S Laws preserving life. It is this increasing
display of sinful authority that accounts for every social injustice and affliction, and will one day reach its summit in
the battle of Armageddon. But after
this conclusion of sin’s authority on the Earth a promise will be fulfilled: “For as the new heavens and the new
earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come
to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith
the LORD.” Isa.66:22,23.

Commandment
Keepers invites every Christian to join the closing work of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and establish twelve member groups
within your respective country, heralding the titles: Commandment Keepers Kenyan Assembly, British Assemby,
Brazilian Assembly, etc. As the Bible teaches, the redeemed of earth will come from "every nation, and kindred,
and tongue, and people." Rev.14:6. And all will have stood faithful to Christ's Words, "But if thou wilt
enter into life, keep the commandments." Matt.19:17. To meet the specific cultural
needs of the different peoples of the world, a custom tailored witness is vital for successful evangelism. While the
message of Salvation through the Creator/Christ is universal in its scope, people's cultural affections vary greatly from
land to land. What can bring tears of joy to one group can actually harden the hearts of another.
To receive this ministry outline click "The Evangelists" below. It contains all the materials needed to succeed
in this invaluable type of ministry. Two reasons for the need of small church
companies at this time in history: 1. There are six branch ministries, which cover all areas of the closing gospel
work, providing each member with an invaluable task. Teamed up in pairs for each of the branch ministries, none
will sit on the sidelines, feeling useless, and where each have equal value to the success of the ministry's
work. 2. Economic streamlining has become an essential factor in the closing work. As America
and other countries proceed in their place in Bible prophecy a structure of ministry must be in place to carry out
the Savior's closing work on the minds and hearts of the people just at the time it is needed the most. This efficient, low cost approach to the closing work will be lavished with
GOD'S blessing. Each of these small church companies will be given an eloquent, persuasive testimony
by GOD: to share in the most privileged work on Earth: enlightening the world with His Glory: His redeeming love found in
the truth, as the truth is in Jesus:" as Creator of heaven and earth; what He has done: as
bearing the punishment for the sins of men; and what He is doing: interceding on behalf of His faithful children who are continuously
accused of the devil; and what He will do: deliver His faithful children when He comes again.
Through His Presence, Guidance and Intervention, the faith of Bible literate and obedient Christians will swell
to a lofty summit, preparing them for the coming of the LORD. Lastly,
no tithe is required except to budget your ministry's needs.
