| "The unforgiveable sins this earth must confront and overcome are
Nationalism, capitalism, and hoarding. The idea of every nation
should be forgot, price should be struck from the commons, and
princes should be seen for the devils they are. The sins include
our church, secret societies, and other religions which make of
the spirit of God a divide."
Last rites declaration of Ioannes Paulus PP. II (Karol Wojtyla)
2nd April 2005
--
who are well informed.
The prophecies, which represent Him as poor, represent Him as master of the
nations. Is. 52:14, etc.; 53; Zech. 9:9.
The prophecies, which foretell the time, foretell Him only as master of the
nations and suffering, and not as in the clouds nor as judge. And those,
which represent Him thus as judge and in glory, do not mention the time.
When the Messiah is spoken of as great and glorious, it is as the judge of
the world, and not its Redeemer.
He is to be the victim for the sins of the world. Is. 39:53. etc.
He is to be the precious corner-stone. Is. 28:16.
He is to be a stone of stumbling and offence. Is. viii. Jerusalem is to dash
against this stone.
The builders are to reject this stone. Ps. 117:22.
God is to make this stone the chief corner-stone.
And this stone is to grow into a huge mountain and fill the whole earth.
Dan. 2.
So He is to be rejected, despised, betrayed (Ps. 108:8), sold (Zech. 11:12),
spit upon, buffeted, mocked, afflicted in innumerable ways, given gall to
drink (Ps. 68), pierced (Zech. 12), His feet and His hands pierced, slain,
and lots cast for His raiment.
He will rise again (Ps. 15) the third day (Hosea 6:3).
He will ascend to heaven to sit on the right hand. Ps. 110.
The kings will arm themselves against Him. Ps. 2.
Being on the right hand
