Ambassadors of the New World!

 

Until 1979, the world knew only two Superpowers in term of politics, namely the United States of America and the Soviet Union.

But in 1979, a speaker of a third Superpower made his appearance! This speaker is also a prophet and he made all the cover pages of the newspapers at that time. His name is Pope John Paul II! One year before, He was indeed selected to become the Chief of the

Worldwide Roman Catholic Church.

This event took place during the feast of the Tabernacles (Sukhot) during the seventh month according to the calendar of the Lord.

During circa twenty five years, the Pope carried out a hundred trips in 129 countries.

He is the first Pope invited at the White House at the request of the President of the United States!

You go account of the importance symbolic system of this single event in the history of the U.S.A.?

This Pope was also the catalyst leading to the fall of the Iron Wall and the disappearance of one of the Superpower: the Soviet Union!

In the same order of idea, by His speeches, He contributed to the reinforcement of Europe while helping with the repair of the two broken pieces which were Europe of the East and the West. Lastly, He also visited the Holy Land just before this one is expected to fall down in chaos.

 

According to an analyst of the French newspaper Express, the impressive mediatic success of these missions of Pope John-Paul II is the fruit of the Vatican diplomacy, a diplomacy based on the art to seduce. Several opponents of the catholic system claim that the "Holy See" at the end times is symbolized by the Beast coming out of the earth and described in the book of the Revelation of John, chapter 13 and verses 11 to 18:

 

"11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 14And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. 15He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666." 

 

 

But there are another group of Ambassadors with a completely different Diplomacy!

 

But side by side with the diplomacy carried out by the army of ambassadors of the "Holy See", there is another diplomacy, the one of the Kingdom of the Father, a diplomacy achieved by a host of Ambassadors that most probably you are unaware of. This Heavenly diplomacy is not based at all on the art of seduction by untrue statements which will never materialize but, on the contrary it is built on the Truth as written in the Bible of the Lord!

This diplomacy is the DUTY OF THE BELIEVERS as stated by Paul in his second epistle to the Corinthians, chapter 5 and verse 20:

 

"20Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though Elohim were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to Elohim"

 

Each believer, each congregation of faithful people are to some extent as many Ambassadors and Diplomats to the service of another world, the New World To Come from the Kingdom of our Father, the Supreme Creator !

 

How to become a good Ambassador, How to make a good diplomacy?

 

Do we fit in? Are we ready to become good Ambassadors or good Diplomats? Do we exert our mission well? Here are some advices to encourage you to discover all the aspects of this mission in the future and to improve your performances.

 

Be open to the world and don't close yourselves to it!

 

What would you think of an embassy which would not be opened to the country where it sits, an embassy where, on the contrary, people would be living between themselves with no contact outside their embassy? What would you think of Diplomats and Ambassadors who would seek primarily the company of their compatriots and who would flee the presence of the inhabitants of the country where their Embassy is located?

Such an embassy, if it really existed, should be quickly closed. And yet, it is often the bad tendency of many groups of believers and churches to meet between themselves in their closed world like in a club. Few others are convinced that they should live alone.

If such is the case, we would not follow at all the examples left to us by Jesus, our Lord, during his life on earth. Let us read about it in Luke, in the chapter 7, verses 2 and 6 to 10:

 

" 2And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die…

6Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof. 7Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. But say the word, and my servant will be healed. 8For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, "Go,' and he goes; and to another, "Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, "Do this,' and he does it."
9When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, "I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!" 10And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well who had been sick." 

 

In this short account, we find Jesus-Christ in contact with a Roman occupant and handling his pressing and important personal request.

 

A little further, let us read verse 34 of the same chapter:

 

" 34The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, "Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!" 

 

Here again, Jesus is shown sitting with publicans and other people with bad reputation. Let us not forget either that he also spoke with prostitutes. But note also that Jesus did not run towards people to seduce and ask them to follow his way of thinking, quite to the contrary, crowds of people ran after him and followed him everywhere because they were so thirsty for his good teachings.

 

In the same chapter 7 of Luke, let us read verse 36 and we will see that Jesus either did not hesitate to go and sit at the table of a Pharisee, accepting his invitation:

 

36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee's house, and sat down to eat. "

 

And yet this same Jesus will have very hard words for the Pharisees as you can read it in the chapter 23 of the Gospel of Matthew. He treats them among others of hypocrites, whited sepulchres, sons of murderers, snakes and of generation of vipers.

 

But individually speaking, Jesus, our example, is always ready to meet and speak with anyone in his circle who is looking after him possibly for help. Jesus never rejected somebody since even Satan, the Devil and his fallen angels could discuss with Him! None of their questions remained unanswered.

 

In the same way, we, servants of Jesus-Christ, must invest much of our time as valuable representatives of the Kingdom of our Lord, in the outside world. In our contact, we should not show any discrimination of race, religion, social class and age! See how the Ambassadors of the nations are unceasingly representing their country outside. In the same way, we should spent much more time outside of our closed circles and be ready to accept in the positive and constructive way the invitations we might receive!

 

 

 

A great prudence!

 

Another essential quality of good diplomacy is prudence in our behavior before any action. It is necessary at all costs to avoid mishap and to be respectful of the laws ruling the Kingdom we represent abroad.

This is why official declarations made by Ambassadors are extremely rare but they are also very useful.

 

We must in the same way as representatives of the Kingdom of the Heavens speak with a lot of care, wise as a snake (Matthew 10: 16), because our words must fall in the right time and right place:

 

"A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold
        In settings of silver. "

 

(Proverbs 25: 11)

 

Thus it is our duty as candidates Ambassador or Diplomat of the Kingdom of Heavens to train to speak very little, but wisely. One should not be afraid to make mistakes but, then, like a child who learns how to walk, stand up and persevere!

 

A Good Smell!

 

It is another duty of an Embassy to spray smoothly the knowledge about its country of origin and the way it is done should be tasty. Its mission is well fulfilled when it attracts the people who live in the country of its residence, when it gives a desire to follow its way life. It is a little what Paul says to us in a picturesque way in his second epistle to the Corinthians, in chapter 2, when we read the verses 14 to 17:

 

"14Now thanks be to Elohim who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place. 15For we are to Elohim the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing. 16To the one we are the aroma of death leading to death, and to the other the aroma of life leading to life. And who is sufficient for these things? 17For we are not, as so many, peddling the word of Elohim; but as of sincerity, but as from Elohim we speak in the sight of Elohim in Christ." 

 

Stand up and let's go back courageously in the narrow path to life!

 

Now we are reaching the end of this small meditation, you will close your computer or your laptop and will go out again in this world but not as in the past. Now we will behave like Ambassadors of our Father, the Kings of the Kings. You know very well the plan of your Government in the Heavens as he has no secret for you. You know that your mission will become increasingly difficult. Indeed, you will be persecuted although the relations between this world and our Father are not broken yet. You are the testimony of the existence of these relations.

But why will we have to go through these persecutions? There are two reasons for that:

          1.     Our Father by the means of persecutions is teaching us to be submitted to Him as He did also with his first Son.

          2.     Then, by our persecution, our Father will show in a dramatic way that He is the only One to be Powerful! Indeed after our persecution, a similar event to the one which took place in Egypt for the Hebrew will occur but this time on a worldwide scale (Exodus 1: 8-12):

 "8Now there arose a new king over
Egypt, who did not know Joseph. 9And he said to his people, "Look, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we; 10come, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they multiply, and it happen, in the event of war, that they also join our enemies and fight against us, and so go up out of the land." 11Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh supply cities, Pithom and Raamses. 12But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were in dread of the children of Israel." 

 

But if at that time Egyptians saw with some fear the physical growth of the Hebrew population, this world will be scared to assist to the powerful and unheard appearance of the spiritual family of our Lord. Indeed the book of Revelation reveals that after these ongoing persecutions, some still to come, and symbolized by the fifth seal, there will be the marking of the 144,000 of the twelve tribes of Israel followed just afterwards by the birth of the huge crowd who will have rejected the Devil and his Beasts, perhaps thanks to you today. They either will not hesitate to face the martyrdom to be able to adore their Father and Creator.

 

This is why we should persevere with courage in our mission about the Gospel, the Good News of our Kingdom soon to come!
