The Cleansing of Truth
From The
Headship of Christ Through the Apostle Eric:
Take a peek at
the process through one student's participation |
See Dr. VonAnderseck's New Web Site:
Calling
All Apostles
Believers today are
hungering for the truth of Jesus Christ. They are tired of running here and
there every time a minister is claiming the presence and power of Christ. They
are weary of listening to all the claims of healing and deliverance, weary of
trying to learn 'how to tap into these for themselves'. They are tired of seeing
their money used for extravagances, tired of serving time at an altar that
leaves them in the same state of hunger, and thirst, and bondage.
After years of buying into
every kind of spiritual remedy, believers are still in confusion, searching for
truth, struggling with sin, and seeking God through the traditions of man. They
have become a victim of many seducing spirits that allow them to seek God and
serve Him in their own way without the restrictions of faith.
This is the condition
Israel was in when they came out of Egypt. They had assimilated the ways of
Egypt into their lives. When God brought them into covenant with Him, He chose
the Levites to serve Him through what God called a 'priesthood'. Those Levites
were first cleansed before they could function as priests.
Who gave the cleansing?
Moses did. How? When Moses cleansed the Levites it symbolized their separation
from Egypt and preparation for the priesthood. The knowledge of the first
covenant flushed out all the dead knowledge in the heart and set in order the
proper knowledge of God, so that the service rendered to God at the altar was
perfect, according to the terms of the covenant given to Moses.
In
I Pet.2:9 we read,
"But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an
holy nation, a peculiar people, that you should show forth the praises of Him
who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light." Why
is the apostle Peter talking about christians being 'priests'?
I Pet.2:5, "You also as lively stones, are built up a
spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices,
ACCEPTABLE to God by Jesus Christ." Why is the apostle Peter
talking about christians making spiritual sacrifices?
Each believer is chosen of
God to serve Him in a holy priesthood at the altar of Christ. Each believer (as
the Levites) must be cleansed and prepared for the priesthood in order to know
how to offer the spiritual sacrifices that glorify God. This is why Jesus washed
the feet of His apostles. He was symbolically doing as Moses did, and leaving
His apostles with the example to do the same.
Cleansing comes through
truth, and this is why doctrine comes through apostles.
The entire Christian Church
is in the same spiritual condition as Israel in Egypt. Having changed the truth
into a lie by adopting the traditions of men for the commandments of God, the
gospel is no longer pure, but has become perverted. Each believer is in need of
doctrinal cleansing so they can be prepared to serve God at the altar of Jesus
Christ.
This is why God is now
restoring the gospel of the grace of God in truth through the apostle Eric.
Through the doctrinal cleansing, Jesus is providing His headship just as He did
in the early Church. All believers can be separated from the false
indoctrinations and traditions of man, and given the true knowledge, tools and
traditions of Jesus Christ, setting these things in the heart as the original
foundation our faith is to be built on.
|
1. Why is it important for
christians to come to the apostles for their separation and cleansing?
|
|
Student's response:
It’s important
for Christians to come to the APOSTLES because they are whom the Lord
chooses to use to preserve the knowledge of the second covenant.
|
1. What is this student
gaining? This student is gaining the
understanding that God has appointed the apostles' office to preserve the
knowledge of the Second Covenant provided in Christ (the Pattern, and the
Plan of God for salvation). This student has gained the knowledge that
apostles are CHOSEN servants, not lords. This student is gaining freedom
in Christ. Pastors told believers they would not be safe without their
headship; this believer has gained freedom from that tyranny.
2. What is this student losing?
This student is losing the fear of apostles (the church
said they were all false). This student is losing the false
indoctrination that said the knowledge of the Mystery of Christ comes
through the pastor, through precept and line bible study, through the Holy
Spirit's guidance, and through the revelations all believers have as
individual pieces of the "big picture." This believer in Christ is losing
the aspiration that drives the church to "discover truth" by mixing
scripture with their own principles and imaginations (which created a
false pattern for faith). This believer is also losing ambiguity. Pastors
were falsely teaching that the mystery of Christ was "Christ in us," and
that's all a believer had to know.
3. How is truth preparing this student for spiritual
priesthood? This student is no longer wandering
from church to church, pastor to pastor, book to book, seminar to seminar
trying to discover "purpose" or the "will of God". This student is no
longer trading one form of darkness for another in search of truth, but
now understands we must submit to God's spiritual government for the
cleansing of our false indoctrinations so we may serve Him with perfect
faith in our spiritual priesthood. Only through joining ourselves to God's
authorized government will our instruction in the ordered knowledge be
made full and complete. |
|
2. Explain
the example that Jesus set by washing the feet of His apostles.
|
|
Student's
response:
Jesus was
establishing spiritual government through the washing of the Apostle’s
feet. Those whose feet are being washed must submit to the One who does
the cleansing. |
1. What is
this student gaining? This student has gained
the correct understanding of the foot washing. Jesus was showing
symbolically what His Headship would do for each convert coming into the
faith. This student is understanding that apostles serve the Body by
cleansing each disciple of its false knowledge and perceptions of Christ,
and setting in them the proper foundation and pattern of truth. God does
not require believers to search their whole life to gain an understanding
of how to know Him, and what He expects of us as christians; each believer
can know now how to serve God with perfect faith.
2. What is this believer losing?
This believer is losing the false indoctrination that makes
faith dead by turning the foot washing into a tradition of man. This
believer is losing the tradition of man that attempts to demonstrate faith
by mimicking Jesus' actions and words. Believers are losing the false
gospel of 'What would Jesus do?', and are losing the need to depend on the
imagination to drive an aspiration to project a faith in God through the
water, soap, and the aesthetic environment that surround the foot washing
ceremonies we see today.
3. How is truth preparing this student to participate in
the spiritual priesthood? This student is
understanding that just as Jesus prepared his apostles by separating and
"washing them" with the water of his words and they were "clean" through
these words he spoke to them, so do apostles also "wash" believers with
pure quintessential TRUTH. This (doctrinal) washing in truth equips
believers with the knowledge of how to serve at the
spiritual altar of Christ and offer the sacrifices of faith according to
the terms of the New Covenant. |
|
3. How do
the apostles cleanse christians? |
|
Student's
response:
The Apostles
cleanse Christians by setting the one foundation of truth while Christians
must separate themselves from all false indoctrination that was once held
dear to them. |
1. What is this
student gaining? This student is gaining the
understanding that apostles cleanse the Body using truth, setting the ONE
foundation in the heart of believers - the knowledge of the pattern for
faith provided in Christ. This believer sees that apostles personally
instruct believers with perfect and wholesome doctrine, thus using the
knowledge of Christ to give their faith the proper form and boundaries for
acceptable _expression toward God.
2. What is this student losing?
This student is losing the false indoctrination that says
apostles have already given the church the foundation of truth by writing
the epistles. This student is losing the confusion this false doctrine
sowed into the church as each person privately interpreted those epistles
creating each their own blueprint for serving God. This believer is losing
the burdensome yoke of precept and line principles of faith that was
taught by those God did not call to steward His word. This student is
removing the foot from the snare of the devil which promised cleansing,
healing, and deliverance through the laying on of hands, or prayer.
3. How is truth preparing this believer to function in
the spiritual priesthood? This student is
understanding that the earthbound tools the church gave to express faith
must be removed and replaced with the true tools Christ sprinkled his
blood on. This believer understands that apostles equip believers with
these spiritual tools and thus they will be prepared in truth to function
as a New Covenant priest unto God with unblemished faith. This student
will be able to read the word of God and understand the revelation of
Christ that the early apostles wrote of and not need any other
revelations. This believer is understanding that although Jesus' blood
paid for her redemption, there is a responsibility on our part to serve
Him in righteousness. Truth will prepare us to do so. |
|
4. What is
spiritual government? |
|
Student's
response:
God is using the
Apostles to cleanse the believers with truth just as He used Moses to
cleanse the Levites. The Apostle is not greater than Jesus. The Apostle
cannot project a truth that is greater than Jesus. |
1. What is this student
gaining? With the understanding of spiritual
government, this student is gaining the knowledge that Jesus Christ is the
Head of the Church, and He rules the Church through the representation of
that Headship through apostles (given as the first office in the spiritual
government of God.) This believer is gaining the understanding that
disciples don't learn how to follow Christ through laboring over
concordances, lexicons, commentaries and searching and reasoning out the
language syntax, but that God has specifically designed the function of
the apostles' office to deliver all the necessary doctrine and function
for perfect faith.
2. What is this student losing?
This student is losing the false indoctrination that says
apostles are not for today, and is losing the autonomous spirit given by
the false church government that led believers into self ruler ship. This
believer is losing the false doctrine of 'spiritual covering' that
enslaves christians to be accountable to relationships instead of
accountable to truth, and is losing the false indoctrination that taught
that pastors decide what is proper function and doctrine for the church,
and is losing the false indoctrination that said that 'church' was in a
building, and if you are not in that 'building' you are not part of the
Church. This believer is losing the false indoctrination that says that
apostles are missionaries.
3. How is truth preparing this believer for the
spiritual priesthood? As the Levites recognized
Moses as the true government of God and allowed him to cleanse them in
preparation of entering their priesthood, so too, by recognizing and
embracing the true government of God through apostles, and being washed
and prepared in truth to serve God, this student is prepared with the law
of truth that is in Christ Jesus. Mal.2:4-7 "...My covenant might be with
Levi, says the Lord of hosts. My covenant was with him of life and peace;
and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid
before my name. The law of truth was in his mouth........for the priest's
lips should keep knowledge......" The Church is without peace and life
because they have abandoned their spiritual priesthood through Christ. |
|
5. What is
a false apostle? |
|
Student's
response:
A false Apostle is
an Apostle who follows the wrong direction and the wrong pattern perhaps
because he lacks all truth and he lacks the total vision of the pattern
set by Jesus. |
1. What is this
student gaining? This student is gaining true
discernment. The earthbound gospel that false apostles teach confirms
man's frailty and needs. Their gospel sends Adam in the wrong direction
concerning faith. These false apostles preach the gospel of Adam's fall,
but not Christ's redemption. This believer is gaining the understanding of
the whole gospel true apostles possess versus the "in-part" gospel false
apostles carry, and is learning that we do not need to "eat the meat and
spit out the bones" by listening to every man's teaching, gleaning here
and there nuggets of "spiritual principles." This believer is learning how
to experience the true healing and life of God through the original
pattern for faith that true apostles deliver. This student is learning how
to discern the genuine Witness of God over the false witness created by
false government.
2. What is this student losing?
This student is losing the false indoctrination that taught
her we all "see in part" and that our participation in the covenant of
Christ cannot be perfect, because no one vessel has all the truth of
Christ. This believer is losing the contact points of Moses which false
apostles teach, and is losing the false witness and imitation voice of God
that all false apostles hear. All pastors are really false apostles. They
have put themselves in the position of 'steward of the mysteries of
Christ' without the calling. When you listen to those indoctrinated by
pastors, they all sound alike, all speaking in the same ambiguous terms
about Christ, glorifying the pastor, seeking personal relationships. Like
pastor, like people. This student is loosing this false connection and
being made free from this assembly line type of christianity.
3. How is truth preparing this student for the spiritual
priesthood? Because this student is learning the
difference between true and false apostleship, there is no hindrance to
the preparation to confirm Christ by one pattern of truth. This believer
is being cleansed of the many patterns and doctrines (idols) created over
the centuries by men who were not authorized by God for this office. The
knowledge of Christ being kept pure, charity is also undefiled. |
|
6. What is
a false prophet? |
| Student's
response:
The false
Prophet may or may not give evil or false counsel. He may prophecy some
truth but he will not confirm nor conform to the direction and pattern set
by Jesus through the Apostles. |
1. What is this
student gaining? This student is gaining the
understanding that although there are many prophets prophesying of God's
intentions, they are like Balaam, outside the covenant, not conforming to
the direction or pattern of government of God set by Jesus through the
apostles. While they claim to speak for God, they refuse His yoke, and
refuse His true spiritual tools of the covenant instructed by true
apostles, thus their message is void of the grace of God, taking the
knowledge of Him in a false direction. This believer is learning that the
'prophets' of the 'Prophetic Movement' are not inspired by the Spirit and
their utterances have no divine weight.
2. What is this student losing?
This student is losing the false indoctrination that
teaches that prophets prophesy concerning your giftings and calling, your
wounds of the past, your personal and family matters, your potential
future in prosperity and health that God wants you to have, direction for
daily decisions, etc. This student is removing the foot from Satan's
snare. The wiles of the Devil are in the voice of the inclination, the
voice of the conscience, and the voice of the character, these are the
voices of Wilson that Satan uses to imitate God, to cloud God in
aspiration and principle.
3. How is truth preparing this student for spiritual
priesthood? Through the understanding believers
gain concerning true prophets and false prophets they are enabled to offer
the true spiritual sacrifices of faith that glorify God. This believer is
being cleansed of the shadow leadings and impressions that false prophets
use in their earthy prophecies; and is understanding that true prophets
confirm the ONE plan of God through Christ, not the needs, infirmities,
and giftings of Adam. This believer is learning that although there is a
calling of 'prophet' all believers are prophets of the Lord as proclaimed
by Moses, "...would God ALL the Lord's people were prophet, and that the
Lord would put His Spirit upon them," Num.11:29. Fulfilled in Christ and
confirmed by the apostle Paul, "For you may ALL prophesy one by one, that
all may learn, and all may be comforted," I Cor.14:31. Again, God has
provided a covenant of life and peace which He gave Levi, which is not
fulfilled through the spiritual priesthood in Christ. |
|
7. How do
christians recognize the Headship of Christ? |
|
Student's
response:
We recognize the
headship of Christ by recognizing the need for the Apostles to separate
and cleanse us and prepare us to serve God in truth (God’s divine
knowledge). |
1. What is this
student gaining? This student is gaining freedom
from the wiles of the devil. The devil will sympathize with the doctrine
of submission, as long as it is to a pastor and not a true apostle. Satan
knows that pastors and false apostles and false prophets have no doctrinal
authority and that the christian who submits to them are not really
recognizing the headship of Christ, and cannot function in their spiritual
priesthood, but taking on the bondages that these false ministers carry.
This believer is gaining the true rest which is in Christ. No longer
having to labor under the false yoke when the headship of Christ is
absent. [when the headship of Christ is absent, believers cannot simply
talk about Jesus without talking about what their pastor will allow or not
allow]. 2. What is this student losing?
As the believers begin to yield their will to the grace
of God's true Headship, they are removing the crown (of honor and
authority) they have placed upon the pastors (which gave them a false
authority to set policy for doctrine and function in the church) and
replacing the crown (of honor and authority) back on the head of Jesus.
This believer is being made from the spirit of error who used the false
doctrine of autonomy as liberty for private interpretation of scripture.
The spirit of error teaches all christians that they can serve God their
own way. Having again the Headship of Christ, this believer is losing the
dominion of Satan as master, and is losing the false indoctrination that
teaches anyone can write a book or teach doctrine to the Church. Believers
are now able to refuse all the extra revelations that come through these
avenues that cannot be confirmed in scripture. Believers are losing their
former stance to despise government as they learn that Christ rules the
Body in equity and truth through vessels He calls as apostles. |
|
8. How are
we joined to Christ? |
|
Student's response:
We are joined to
Christ through (spiritual) government. (Christ, Apostles, Prophets,
Preachers and teachers, Evangelists) We are joined to Christ through
truth. (God’s divine knowledge as it is received and taught by Apostles).
We are joined to Christ through His Spirit. (He accepts us because we have
acknowledged his pattern brought to us by His Apostles) |
1. What is this
student gaining? Being joined to Christ through
His government, His truth, and His Spirit, this student is glorifying
Jesus, and is able to cease from sin; to bring to a halt the acting powers
of sin because faith, being joined to Christ, is no longer on the
battlefield of the flesh. This believer is gaining the true commandments
of Christ through the ordered activity of the New Covenant, and is able to
love God by keeping these commandments. Being joined to Christ, this
believer is able to glorify Jesus by celebrating the death and
resurrection of Christ through the communion of Christ which is the feast
of the Holy Ghost. When this believer gathers with those who are also
joined to Christ, they are feasting on the things that the Holy Ghost
supplies through each vessel.
2. What is this believer
losing? Being joined to Christ through His
government, His truth, and His Spirit, this believer is losing the false
reference point for the knowledge of Christ, and removing the foot from
another of Satan's snare. Through his wiles Satan sowed the lie that
'knowledge' is gnosticism, that we have the ability to love Jesus without
knowledge. Without the knowledge of the covenant we would not know how to
abide in Christ. Knowledge without the Spirit is Gnostic, the knowledge of
Christ born of the Spirit is the living waters that Jesus spoke of.
Jn.6:63, "The WORDS I speak unto you, they are SPIRIT, and they are LIFE."
3. How is truth preparing this student for spiritual
priesthood?
Having joined herself to Christ through His government,
through His truth, and through His Spirit, this student is able to confess
Jesus Christ as Lord, to proclaim the authority of Jesus' headship over
His framework of truth. This student is able to confess the word of God
[that which God has already been provided for our faith], and is able to
confess the witness of God, what God provides for our experience with
Him. This believer is able to glorify the Son of God and able to also
glorify the Father. |
CLOSING REMARKS ---- God shows us repeatedly that He does not confirm the
honor of man, but confirms Jesus Christ only. Satan has beguiled christianity,
he has controlled your thinking with a principle. Satan can provide a form of
knowledge without truth and control your thinking through that principle, so
beguiling you. You think you are glorifying Jesus Christ, but you are simply
holding to a principle about Christ and preaching the gospel of Adam's fall.
God is restoring spiritual government through Jesus Christ despite Satan's
objections. As God is restoring spiritual government, He is restoring
CONFIDENCE. Confidence comes with refection upon the grace and truth of God.
Our faith in God cannot be recreated, as if God will send Jesus down a second
time to die on the cross. Although pastors, and televangelists, and prophets,
and teachers, and false apostles have sought to redeem themselves through
another message and another Jesus, faith in God has never changed. Being joined
to God through our Lord Jesus Christ through His government, His truth, and His
Spirit is not new. This is the word of faith that we (apostles) preach. this
knowledge, this understanding, this government brings confidence and the
confidence brings the fear of the Lord. Now we can birth the kingdom of God in
us, reflecting the face of the father.
Take on the true yoke of Christ and be made free.
Yours in Christ,
Eric vonAnderseck, Th.D., D.D.
