Mai Ke didn't give everyone too much time, because for the understanding of some things, it doesn't matter much if the time is longer or shorter.

No just won't!

If you don't understand, you don't understand!

Mai Ke understands these things, understands God's will, but he doesn't dare to say that it's because he is smart, he is more knowledgeable than others.

He understood that he became a pastor because God decided to be a pastor, raised him up to be a pastor, and gave him the ability to be a pastor, including an understanding of the Bible.

Another important example in the Bible is Esau and Jacob, who, according to Genesis 25, were born first as the eldest brother, and Jacob was born later as the second brother.

In the end, however, it was Jacob who succeeded Isaac and received his blessing. What is the reason for this?

Please open the book of Malachi, the last book of the Old Testament, and see what verses 2 and 3 of chapter 1 say.

"'Is Esau not Jacob's brother, saith the Lord, but I love Jacob and hate Esau.'"

"If we are not clear about this passage, let's look at the New Testament and ask the brethren to turn to Romans 9:12-16, where God has revealed to us that 'God said to Rebekah, 'In the future the greater will serve the lesser.'

As it is written, Jacob is my beloved, and Esau is my hate.

So what can we say, is there any injustice in God?

For he said to Moses, "Whoever I will have mercy on, I will have mercy on whomever I will."

From this it is not the will. and does not care about him who runs, but God who has mercy. ’

From this, we can see that Jacob was a brother and was served by his brother Esau because of God's love for Jacob, and so was Manasseh.

However, all the verses of the Old Testament refer to Jesus, and therefore, both examples are the inheritance of the Lord Jesus in heaven and earth. Foreshadowing and foreshadowing were made. When we read the Old Testament, let us look forward to the coming of the Lord Jesus.

For it is only after the coming of the Lord Jesus that He tells us what the will of God is, that is, the Lord Jesus through himself. Sue us. He is the manifestation of God's will.

We understand these basic Bible teachings. It is very necessary and important for us to be sober and clear Christians. But it doesn't end there.

For God's greatness is not something that we should be amazed by, like watching an exciting performance or admiring a great work of art.

God has revealed His will to us so that we may be with God and receive God's incomparable blessings, and the only way to receive this blessing is to be one with the Lord Jesus.

"How can you be one with the Lord Jesus?

What do we learn from this? Jesus became the firstborn, and we are all firstborn!

That is to say, all Christians have been given the title of firstborn through the Lord Jesus, and have received the blessings of the firstborn.

That's my understanding of what the Bible reveals about the firstborn and why God gives birthrighthood to some people who weren't firstborn.

"Do you have any questions or additions to this question?"

"I want to confirm that at the beginning of Exodus 13, after the Passover was decreed, God said to Moses that every firstborn of Israel, whether man or animal, must be consecrated to God.

"What is the relationship between this firstborn attribution to God and the firstborn we just discussed? Is the firstborn attributed to God equivalent to God's salvation and God's special blessing?"

Wang Quanzhou was a little unsure, but finally asked.

"Very good question, Brother Wang! It shows that you are very serious about the Bible and that you have the point in listening to what I have just discussed!

"This is a very critical issue. I'll try to answer first, and if it's not right or complete, Mike and the brothers will correct and add to it.

The firstborn is God's, but it's actually the firstborn, and this requirement is to give God the best to thank God for His grace.

The firstborn here, the firstborn with the Lord Jesus, is the firstborn, and God's blessing is fulfilled through the firstborn.

Note: When God made some people who were not firstborn, he did not deny the special status and function of the firstborn, but he deliberately gave him more grace to make him the firstborn.

Therefore, God's actions are consistent and consistent, and the firstborn blesses her chosen ones.

Now we are blessed in the Lord Jesus. ”

Mai Ke really fulfilled his duties as a pastor, and turned to God's grace with three or two clicks.

Then they raised some specific questions, and they were all given a concise and full discussion.

Mai Ke announced that the discussion of the Bible was over, and he entered the board meeting, and also approved the newsletter.

Then Mai Ke asked everyone if they had any questions, and if not, they would make the following arrangements.

Hong Xiuquan asked a question, saying that since he changed his name, few people called him a new name, and he was still called his original name, Hong Xiuquan.

Everyone burst out laughing, and sure enough!

Even everyone here still calls him by his original name.

Mai Ke asked everyone to seriously understand the hardships of Brother Hong Xinfu, how depressed it should be if there is a name but no one calls it!

So, under the advocacy of Mai Ke, everyone neatly called "Hong Xinfu" three times in a row!

Everyone laughed, and it really deepened the memory.

Since then, the name of Hong Xinfu has been widely known.

The next thing is that Mai Ke reported the situation.

Mai Ke told everyone that the entire Indian subcontinent had been returned to the kingdom of heaven, and three covenants had been established, and at the same time, the two major mountain ranges of the Tibetan Plateau had been established as a base area.

When everyone heard that Hima Kunlun was connected and the 14 peaks were in a loop, they were all a little eager to try and go to watch.

Mai Ke thought that while watching, he told them about the anti-Qing war that was about to start. So they started the train and planned to take them around the middle and upper floors.

Mai Ke led these people to sightseeing, but the spirit rhino moved as fast as lightning.

What is it up to?

It turned out to be Mai Ke's ghost idea again.

Ever since the team arrived, the twenty-three had never had a chance to get together.

The last time Mai Ke got married, the brothers of the Tongxin Deed and the Brotherhood League got together urgently, came in a hurry, said a word of congratulations, and hurried away.

I didn't even have the time to say a word.

In fact, they flew over and flew away again without landing.

This anti-Qing war is imminent. Mai Ke decided to gather the brothers together. The first is to prepare, the second is to say goodbye, and the third is to remind each other.

After this meeting, we will have to wait until after the end of the war. to see you again.

So the Bible study of the disaster of Mai Ke began. He assigned this task to Lingxi.

In less than half a day. Lingxi not only wanted to transport these people over, but also to find them first, and many people didn't even know where Mai Ke was.

Mai Ke took the people of the Bible study team to inspect the strategic projects here. He handed over the reception task to Bai Yuyun, and he also prepared a jasper snow lotus for these guests, one for each person.

It didn't take long for members of the Concentric Pact and the Brotherhood Alliance to arrive.

Lingxi didn't wait for everyone to gather and send it together, but found one and sent it to another.

Therefore, it is necessary to know in advance where to come first.

Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng were the first to arrive, because the two were in the Karakoram and Himalayas, and Li Xiucheng came to be stationed at Qiaogori Peak.

And after Chen Yucheng solved the saints and the crusaders, he was with the strength of Stephen and Timothy, and was getting acquainted with the situation.

They were the youngest of the Brotherhood except for Mai Ke.

At the same time, the two of them are equal to half of the landlords, so they come before others, so that they can arrange related affairs and be responsible for entertaining everyone.

Then there was Peter, who came from across the Indus Valley.

After establishing three covenants, Mai Ke did not let him go back immediately, but asked him to help establish the sailors here.

Peter directly commands the fleet here, but remotely controls the Sacred Mountain Celestial Naval Base, the Celestial Warships in the oceans, and the naval forces scattered throughout the place.

The brothers and sons went to the top floor together, which was the place where Mai Ke and the others had studied the Bible before, and Bai Yuyun welcomed them on behalf of the White Eagle Clan, and then offered an iceberg snow lotus.

Mai Ke had long told them about the scarcity and function of these snow lotus, and told them to keep them well.

When the brothers and sons were reminiscing, Feng Yunshan and Wei Changhui came together.

Both men were the first leaders of the Heavenly Covenant, one ruling over the Mekong Valley and the other over the Pacific islands and surrounding countries.

They were also the kings of the south and the north in the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Then Xiao Chaogui came, he went to the Indian Peninsula to inspect the work, and it took a lot of effort to find him, so although he was not far away, he arrived later.

Yang Xiutian and Lin Fengxiang came together, the two of them have been running the Yang family army, and now they are full of 30,000 people, whether it is the Eastern Expedition or the Northern Expedition, they are a decisive force.

The situation of the two of them is somewhat similar, that is, almost the original crossing object is still alive and well, and is close to the heavenly army, and they have become brothers in the Lord with one heart and one mind.

In fact, Yang Xiuqing is the military commander of this military force, equivalent to the army commander, and Lin Fengxiang is the commander of the first division.

In the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, was not only killed in the Tianjing Incident, but also suffered defeat in the Eastern Expedition and Northern Expedition led by him.

Lin Fengxiang, as the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, died heroically after the defeat.

Shi Dakai and Hu Yihuang arrived together, and after the victory of the second anti-Qing suppression, the two of them have been stationed near Jintian Village, one resting and training the Heavenly Cavalry, and the other resting and training the Heavenly Army.

Their military strength was different from the army trained by Zhang Yuan.

These officers and soldiers were all battle-hardened, while most of the troops trained by Zhang Yuan were new recruits who rarely went to the battlefield.

Zhang Yuan came later, he was not only the commander-in-chief of the Celestial Army, but also the chief instructor of all armies, except for those who started with the militia, most of the members of the Celestial Army were his students.

Even those militia groups and the army that threw themselves into the reorganization had the style of Zhang Yuan's training. Because all the junior and middle-level officers of the army are in the teaching regiment, and the teaching regiment is trained by Zhang Yuan.

After the end of the anti-purging campaign, Zhang Yuan had already led his troops back to the Holy Mountain and continued to train those troops who participated in the battle at the Holy Mountain Training Base.

Along with Zhang Yuan was Paul, the deputy who took Peter's place to manage the daily training of the Heavenly Mariners.

Peter was running around and needed someone to sit in battle, and it turned out to be David.

After David came over as commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet, he blamed Paul on the matter of guarding the stall.

Paul coped with these things well. It's more organized than Peter himself.

Between words. David also arrived.

He, the commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet, did not sit at the headquarters, but went to the junction of the Atlantic Ocean to carry out the next strategic plan of the Space Force. Two-way attack. Capture the Atlantic and its coastal countries.

with him. It was another fellow brother, Charlie, who was also a distinguished member of the Navy.

Next came Gavin, Luther, and Methodist. A team of top pastors in the kingdom, including Gavin as the chief pastor, Luther as the chief pastor, and Methodist as the chief minister.

The triumvirate was having a pastoral meeting, and they happened to be carried by the spirit rhino together.

Otherwise, it would be a long time to delay Lingxi's movement, because the three of them were running around, especially Methodist, whose work was focused on preaching the gospel to the people of the enemy-occupied areas, and had penetrated deep into the northern regions.

Then, the largest group arrived!

They were Job, Mani, Chas, and Loel from the Holy Mountain.

Job was in charge of production, all kinds of production, industry and agriculture, transportation, processing, etc., and was equivalent to the Minister of Industry.

Mani, temporarily in charge of the finances of the Kingdom of Heaven, is equivalent to Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Chas, who is responsible for adjudicating all kinds of violations of law and discipline, is equivalent to the chief judge and the chief procurator.

Lao Ye, who is responsible for defending those defendants against unjust, false and wrongful convictions, is the equivalent of a general counsel.

The duty of labor is actually a challenge to Chas, and the fundamental difference from those of later generations of lawyers is that they are all part of the government.

Since it is a part of the government's functions, there is no need for those who are defended to pay out of their own pockets, thus ensuring fairness to the greatest extent.

At this time, Mai Ke finished his Bible study team inspection and returned to the top floor.

Although the top floor is big enough, it is still a little crowded, after all, there are more than 30 people in the two groups together.

Some of you know, some don't, and you have a preliminary understanding, and everyone knows that they will soon be fighting side by side.

After the introduction, Mai Ke asked Lingxi to help and send back the ten members of the Bible study team.

Then everyone sat down, Mai Ke was in the horizontal position, with a concentric contract with his left hand and a brotherhood alliance with his right hand.

Everyone suddenly quieted down and looked at Mai Ke.

Mai Ke also glanced at the brothers who shared life and death with him.

The eleven brothers on the left are not short: Peter, Paul, Gavin, Ruth, Wesley, David, Job, Mani, Chas, Labor, Charlie!

The brothers on the right are headed by Zhang Yuan, and they are Yang Xiutian, Feng Yunshan, Wei Changhui, Xiao Chaogui, Shi Dakai, Lin Fengxiang, Hu Yihuang, Li Xiucheng, and Chen Yucheng...... Hmm? How do you leave a space in the middle?

That's Brother Jiu's position! Wu Renxiao! Why hasn't Brother Jiu come yet?

"Who knows what's going on with Brother Jiu?" Mai Ke asked loudly.

"I'm here, the first one to come, haha!" A voice came from above, who is not Brother Jiu?

Mai Ke was checking the records of the Spirit Rhino's movements, which said that it had been found and transported.

Hearing the voice, I looked up, and at a corner of the top cover, there was a vague shadow, which was vaguely visible, it was Brother Jiu, and I really couldn't find it if I didn't pay special attention.

Mai Ke knew Brother Jiu's professional habits, there was no need not to show up in front of people, he was always careful, he probably went there to prevent accidents.

So I asked him to come down, and those eagle friends were in charge of the guards, and not a single mouse wanted to come in.

Wu Renxiao came in and bowed to everyone: "I have seen all the brothers, I have seen the arrival of each and every brother, and I am very pleased to see everyone alive and well. ”

"Brother Jiu, sit down quickly, I know that you don't look at people, and I won't blame you. Mai Ke said.

Everyone laughed, but Peter said, "When you drink for a while, you can just punish a bottle of wine." ”

Hu Yihuang echoed casually: "This has to be done!"

While Wu Renxiao was seated, his face changed, from a melon to a bitter melon.

Drinking, which was not a problem, was not a problem, but his profession forbade him to be like a normal person, lest alcohol affect his acumen and judgment.

"Brothers, thank God for keeping us safe and sound for more than half a year, and thank God for making all of us a great harvest!

"I am especially pleased that all of the eldest brothers of my brotherhood have become brothers in Christ, and I have seen that all of my younger brothers have made great progress in Christ!" Thank God for allowing us to have a meaningful meeting, the first meeting of our 23 brothers in Christ, in the highest place in the world, at a critical juncture in history.

"What others don't know, but brothers know, because we all come from another time and space, and we don't come here out of our own preference, but are sent by God to take on the mission God has given us to build the kingdom of heaven.

"Although it is not of our own sake, we are willing, because we all value the Lord, and the Lord's needs and dispatches are the meaning of our lives, our highest mission, and therefore we work for the Lord, regardless of the hardships, and always have joy in our hearts.

"This is a very critical moment because we have completed our preparations and are about to begin the general offensive to overthrow the Manchus.

"It's set for January 8 next year, a full month before today.

"We will have a larger meeting this afternoon, but no matter how large the meeting is and how many people participate, all the brothers here are the core of the core and the backbone of the backbone!

Because we are the only ones who have been commissioned by God to come through and they are all co-workers who help us.

Therefore, I especially remind our brothers not to forget our mission, not to fail to live up to our mission!

"Finally, pray that God's protection will be with all the brothers, and a year later, we will be the same people who will be gathered here again!".
