The True Remnant

The following observations are from The Epistle to Diognetus, Chapters 5and 6, written circa 100-200 A.D

“For the servants of Christ are distinguished from other men neither by country, nor language, nor the customs which they observe. For they neither inhabit cities of their own, nor employ a peculiar form of speech, nor lead a life which is marked out by any singularity. The course of conduct which they follow has not been devised by any speculation or deliberation of inquisitive men; nor do they, like some, proclaim themselves the advocates of any merely human doctrines. But, inhabiting Greek as well as barbarian cities, according as the lot of each of them has determined, and following the customs of the natives in respect to clothing, food, and the rest of their ordinary conduct, they display to us their wonderful and confessedly striking method of life. They dwell in their own countries, but simply as sojourners. As inhabitants, they share in all things with others, and yet endure all things as if foreigners. Every foreign land is to them as their native country, and every land of their birth as a land of strangers. They marry, as do all (others); they beget children; but they do not destroy their offspring. They have a common table, but not a common bed. They in the flesh, but they do not live after the flesh. They pass their days on earth, but they are citizens of heaven. They obey the prescribed laws by surpassing the laws by their lives. They love all men, and are persecuted by all. They are unknown and condemned; they are put to death, and restored to life. They are poor, yet make many rich; they are in lack of all things, and yet abound in all; they are dishonoured, and yet in their very dishonour are glorified. They are evil spoken of, and yet are justified; they are reviled, and bless; they are insulted, and repay the insult with honour; they do good, yet are punished as evil-doers. when punished, they rejoice as if quickened into life; they are assailed by the Jews as foreigners, and are persecuted by the Greeks; yet those who hate them are unable to assign any reason for their hatred.”

Raptured at Law

David Z, Brugger

Isaiah 51:22 and especially verse 23,

Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people, Behold, I have taken out of thine hand the cup of trembling, even the dregs of the cup of my fury; thou shalt no more drink it again:

But I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; which have said to thy soul, Bow down, that we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as the street, to them that went over.

This is why our voices have been as a faint murmuring of a familiar spirit coming up out of the Earth, (Isaiah 29:4) because of the weight of these fictitious Persons/Corporations/Principalities/Idols/gods (See sons of Belial) that stand on our backs because we and our imagiNations are the only ground they have to Stand on. If we take Christ’s hand and are lifted upright then they fall off our backs and into the bottomless Abyss(Rev.9:1-4) we conjured them out of never to be seen again. Then rather than laying in adultery with our faces plowed down into the dirt with us having to look upward to see eye to eye with serpents then rather are heads are in the clouds with Christ high above all principalities and powers where we should be. That’s “Raptured” At Law. Real Men don’t bow before other men or Things and when they do they become less than women, females make better women than males do, and a Maxim of Law says that when a Man fails to maintain his proper Jurisdiction (position) he confounds the Order of All Things. That is why God says at (Hosea 4:13+14) that he will not blame our spouses and daughters if they be in whoredom, because they are separated from him as a chain is broken before their link from Him. His Peace be with you as you strife to repair the chain that keeps all connected to God Our Father through Christ His Word and us as His Lawful Assembly so that through us the women and children may find a place of shelter in the midst of a Crooked and perverse nation where we shine forth as light unto the World that is in darkness. (Philippians 2:15)

I am Convinced that

I am convinced that Christ, Moses and Abraham were all trying to teach men how to come together and be free souls under God;

That evil creates the same type of system over and over because:

  • God does not change,
  • Evil does not change and
  • Man does not choose to change.

God does not want to force you to:

  • Trust him
  • Obey him
  • Walk with him…
  • Instead God wants you to LOVE him.

Evil is not so particular in his goal for you to:

  • Join him (usurp God)
  • Judge him or
  • Judge anyone

Man is made in the image of God.

Because he turned from God he lost sight of:

  •  who he is,
  • who he should be
  • Who he was meant to be.

If Man learns to love his fellow man he has learned what evil refuses to learn.

If Man learns to sacrifice his life for others he has learned what evil does not want him to do.

If he learns to forgive others he becomes what evil cannot tolerate.

  •  Forgiven.

The systems that Jesus, Moses and Abraham were teaching were systems of voluntary:

  •  Forgiveness, Trust, Faith, Hope and Charity.
  • And also: Liberty, Industry, Diligence and Sacrifice,

The system created by evil is a system that is dependent upon just the opposite:

  •  Selfishness, Judgment, Deception, Entitlements and Covetousness.
  • And also: Control, Apathy, Avarice and Indifference.

How far these aspects can reach in our lives is dependent upon the direction of our heats and minds.

If we have been seduced, lead or are following the system of evil we should turn around, repent and follow the system of life.

One is a snare that draws us to death, the other is a path that leads us to life.

In both directions we will face death but in one we shall be devoured and in the other we shall be raised up.

The only true choice we have in this world and the next is the direction we choose to go. One is the kingdom of God that leads to life and the other is the world, the flesh and evil, bringing death and destruction.

One way brings illumination and the other brings illusion; one is transforming and the other is transfixing.

In either case we began in the world. We learn to be of the world or of the kingdom of God.

On the best advise of Jesus Christ, I am going to preach the kingdom of God is at hand.

I am further convinced that the kingdom is a form of government based on freewill aspects mentioned above where people come together for the promotion of those precepts and ordinances of Jesus Christ. The world and the order it imposes seduces, deceives and entices all to do the opposite of Christ’s Kingdom at hand.

The enemy of freedom wishes to divide and conquer the people who seek freedom and liberty under God and have found no greater alley than modern religion.

But Christ did not preach religion. He taught precepts of faith, hope and charity in a national brotherhood where its ministers could not exercise authority one over the other and rights and responsibilities remained with the children of God.

Peace on your house

House sitting in Stayton

We have spent the winter in Stayton, house sitting for a friend. During our time house sitting David has been on “paltalk” and has met many people desiring to be separate from the organized religion and from the world’s system. It has been a blessing to be able to minister and to be ministered by many of them. We don’t know what else is down the road for us but we pick the way and God chooses the steps. We are so grateful for having a place to stay, and for the provision of the Lord. We have found rest and peace during this winter. Hoping to have the right heart to seek the Lord in what He would have us do in the future, since our host is soon returning to his residence.

Released from jail

David has been released from jail. After 29 days in jail, and all charges were dropped. The charge of giving false information to a police officer is what was dropped. He fasted all the days and was in solitary confinement, he lost a total of 30 while being imprisoned.

Arrested in Stayton

David and I were stopped in Stayton Oregon, by Marion County Sheriff, and David was arrested, the charge is giving false information to a police officer. He gave his “born again” date of birth. As of this date he has refused to plead guilty or not guilty and has on several occasions denied his right to face his accuser. He is fasting and praying for them and he is on day 28th of fast. He will see it until the end. His next court date is April 11th.

For unto us a child is born

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

Gone to Texas

David has gone to Texas to help out a friend, he is still there as of this date, December 29, he is looking forward to traveling to Panama if the Lord wills.

Once again thanks go to those who have helped this ministry, to those who have donated and those who have just given a word of encouragement, your reward shall not be denied, the Lord will surely bless you.

In Idaho and Colorado reflections

Returned from Colorado a week ago, have been rather busy with catching up with all the goings on in Idaho, but thought I would take a moment to share with you all that occurred while in Colorado. Well we made it there and back, only one slight problem with the alternator on the car, but was able to fix it, we received donations from a few people on our trip, one was from a wonderful lady in Fountain, she gave us all her tips that she had for that day. The visit with my children went well, it was hard leaving them and we also got to minister to their dad, and help him pack up his house because they were moving on property he bought, so they can be away from the city and start fresh. It rained most of the time while there and even though I didn’t have a camera, I have pictures in my heart. Next we went to Denver and visited some friends there, they are separate in their own way, and we were able to share much with them and they with us. Thank you very much for giving us a place to sleep and great conversation and donating to the ministry. We traveled onward to Rifle Colorado and visited with a friend, I personally have never been treated so well in my life, they made us feel so welcome and gave us so much while there, we spent a couple nights late, talking about a lot of things, and it truly was a blessing to be there for a visit. We left with a big truck don’t know exactly what it is called but we had gas to drive it all the way back to Idaho. I drove the metro and Ambassador David drove the truck all went well but I got sunburned. The Lord is quickly replenishing what we spent in Colorado and we are excited to see what the Lord will do next in this place we are stationed at. Fonda Zion
