No sooner had
I finished my latest book God’s Key To
Tomorrow - in which I mentioned the sometimes vicious opposition of
Christians to The Key Of David revelation – than somebody who was a Facebook
friend posted “Down with the monarchy” on his profile. The timing was more than
coincidence, since I had not uploaded the ebook site to my own profile.
This poor
soul is typical of those entrenched in a Sardis mentality – “loving” Jesus
while rebelling against God’s anointed monarchy and spouting abuse to those of
us to whom God has revealed The Key Of David. The humorous part was that this
person claims that the British monarchy is in an unholy triumvirate of
antichrist conspirators along with the Rothschilds and the Vatican, hellbent on
ruling planet earth in defiance against the Lord Jesus. He is clearly aware of
the conspiracy, then. The humorous thing is that he, along with commendable
zeal in professing fealty to Jesus, also just as equally promotes his own
communist political affiliation. Perhaps he is unaware of the Rothschilds’ well-documented
role in creating communism and their alleged funding of Karl Marx himself?
The tragedy
of this is that this deluded soul is typical of those who reject The Key Of
David. Being short on intelligence and information cannot be balanced by
excessive zeal. Many opponents of The Key Of David are fervent believers in
Christ; however they all exhibit a closed-minded approach to things. They
believe their zealousness will make them impervious to error when, in fact, it
keeps them from truth. Sadly, they also resort to abusive comments, most of
which are said behind your back.
The vehement
hatred of those who are still stuck in a Sardis paradigm is a great grievance
to those of us in Philadelphia. There is the strong desire to bless people with
The Key Of David which motivates us, yes, but it is very difficult for those
who have this Key to comprehend that some of the most fervent Christians we
know will never receive it. Frankly, this continues to shock us that the Lord
Himself is aware of it and has deemed it to be that way! Revelation 18:4 shows
that God is well aware that some will choose to stay in Babylon, even while it
is suffering plagues of divine judgment. Also, history shows us that many
Christians lived their lives rejecting the latest truth to be revealed –
healing, Pentecostal outpouring, Charismatic movement etc.
Some have a
real terror, it seems, of being led into deception. This terror motivates them
to be so “on guard” that they reject new revelation from the Holy Spirit. It is
like an over-protective computer program that won’t allow the things you need
and want in its determination to protect you from viruses and malware.
I thank God
for mentors, including the Lord Himself, who taught me to be open to new truth
and revelation. Acquiring data to feed head knowledge is not the same as
revelation knowledge. Sadly, many believers are never taught to receive
revelation knowledge; in fact, the very notion of it is often discouraged by
some teachers. There are some things flesh and blood cannot reveal to you; they
must come from the Father. Those who have truly received The Key Of David have
done so by Holy Spirit revelation. Studying it won’t necessarily hurt but you
need to hear this truth in the inner man.
Maybe one day
we will be more relaxed about those who are hostile in their rejection of The
Key Of David. I don’t think so, however. The Key itself is the inner witness of
concern and compassion for those who are not yet walking in it. To be casually
accepting of its absence in the lives of others is, perhaps, more worrying
proof of its absence in ours. May it never be so.
My Facebook friend and I parted ways. I had to unfriend him as he got abusive about the monarchy. Proverbs 24:21 says we are not to be joined or fellowship with those who are like that. Sometimes all you can do is hit the unfriend button.
