The Restoration of Truth
By - M. John Allen
Almost two thousand years
ago, a great Newscaster came to this earth with a startling revelation. This
revelation had never been made to mankind before.
He was killed for bringing
that message. Most of those who came after Him, bringing that same message, were also killed.
Beginning about AD 50, this
message was brutally and treacherously suppressed -- many times by the VERY PEOPLE ENTRUSTED WITH PROCLAIMING IT!
This message was once again restored
in part starting in AD 1934, but after the death of the messenger in 1986,
those entrusted with proclaiming this message to the world once more
perverted and suppressed it.
But, THIS MESSAGE MUST NOW BE
PROCLAIMED AGAIN! Prepare now to read a truly amazing story, so marvelous and
so amazing that the powers that be in this world try everything they can to
suppress it every time it surfaces!
Introduction:
It seems that most of us simply
drift through life. We go lazily downstream with the flow
of life’s current, neither thinking nor caring where are, how we got
there, and where we are going.
Most are content to sit home
with a remote control in hand, dispassionately flipping form one boring
television program to another until they come across the ready made daydream
that is to fill yet another evening so that they can forget about everything.
One of the reasons for this is
the pain that people experience daily in today’s society. Despite the empty
rhetoric offered by the politicians about us becoming a “kinder, gentler
nation,” most of us know deep down inside that this is not the case.
More and more Americans lack
health insurance at a time of upwardly spiraling medical costs. Gangs are
taking over our cities. The ozone layer is being destroyed faster than
originally thought. Global warming is already raising sea level, threatening
to erase many islands from the map, and inundate many coastal cities.........
The list of woes goes on and on, not the least of which is the fear of
another great depression, terrorism (perhaps someday even NUCLEAR terrorism),
and the fact that our education system is turning out a nation of illiterates
-- and this despite the fact that we spend more per student on education than
almost any other nation!
“What is wrong?” many ask, realizing
in the back of their minds that this is somehow a different country now than
it was even ten years ago. Gone is the boundless optimism that used to be the
hallmark of Americans. Gone are the endless horizons, the hope with the dawn
of a new day. Every day seems to start out as dreary and depressing as the
one that came before, ending, seemingly, only in the ultimate eventuality of
death.
It used to be when times
were hard that people could at least depend on their families for comfort and
support. But, sadly, even the comfort of home and hearth has been replaced by
far to many with strife, bickering, and the
loneliness of single life after the family blows up. Or, for the spouse who
has to take care of the kids after the divorce, there isn’t loneliness --
only the heavy burden of raising children as a single parent in a hostile,
dangerous world.
It is no surprise,
that, amid all of this bad news, this gloom, doom, and feeling of
impending disaster, that so many sit in front of their television sets night
after night to escape the realities of a hopeless life. At least there is an escape
into a world of comedy, music, or adventure -- whatever we might desire to
keep our minds occupied.
When a few people do have the
guts to look the right questions square in the face -- questions like, “Who
am I? Why am I here? Where am I going?” -- it seems
that no one has a clear and definite answer -- the SOLUTION to our pain and
suffering!
There are, of course, the
platitudes of psychiatrists and psychologists, gently purring in our ear that
it was somehow all someone else’s fault, that we are not to blame for our
problems and suffering. It feels good at first. t
seems to make us feel better, but, in the end, we are still faced with life,
and we still don’t have the answers.
Some have thought to turn to
religion. There is any type of religion available in the world that one could
want. There is happy religion; sad, melancholy religion; guilt religion;
exciting religion, and, finally, for those who really
want to think they are better than others, fear religion.
Unfortunately, even religion,
which is supposed to supply the ultimate answers, seems to have a hollow ring
to it. It just doesn’t seem to solve our problems, no matter how many Sundays
one might sit and listen to the little tidbits and platitudes from this
world’s pulpits.
It seems that nobody knows the
answers to the really BIG QUESTIONS IN LIFE, questions like: “Why was I
born? Where is my life going? Is there some meaning or purpose to life, or is it just some kind of
lonely, empty game we play, at the end of which we all lose any, so what’s the
use of playing anymore?”
These questions have bothered
mankind throughout history, yet, rarely, have the answers been given. Yet, if
man’s eyes had been open to the truth, he would have known that there was
someone who came about two thousand years ago who claimed that HE had the
answers to these questions of the ages! And yet, when we look around us
today, we can’t see those answers unless we look real
hard.
The simple, plain truth is that
someone DID COME to give us the real
life answers to all of the questions of man down through the ages -- but man
suppressed it and rejected it!
That statement may sound
startling when you first read it. I know it startled me when I first saw it.
I could hardly believe it. I read, in black and white, that CHRIST’S TRUE GOSPEL
MESSAGE WAS BRUTALLY SUPPRESSED not long after His death, and has not, by and
large, been proclaimed to the world since! That is quite a startling
revelation, yet it is, as I shall soon demonstrate, never the less true.
You see, mankind has always been
apart from God, since the very first man and the very first woman walked this
earth. But, when one realizes the shocking truth that it was man, not God, who cut
himself off from his Creator, the true light of what has been going on
throughout history is revealed.
But, I am getting ahead of
myself here. We cannot fully comprehend what is going on today -- what is
happening in YOUR LIFE THIS VERY MOMENT -- without going back and looking at
everything in perspective. As a great servant of God once observed, by
looking at how things are now lonely, and trying to solve those problems from
that perspective, is like walking into a movie theater when the last few
minutes are playing, and trying to figure out what is going on from there. It
is not possible. What the actors say and do won’t make any sense. We can’t
solve any of their problems for them, because we do not understand what the
problems are!
And that has been the story of
mankind since creation. Man has cut himself off from the only Source that
would show him the solution to his problems. He doesn’t understand some very
VITAL EVENTS IN HISTORY, and so, consequently, without a proper historical
perspective, he CAN’T POSSIBLY solve any of his problems now.
Once one comes to this
understanding, one is finally ready to start looking for the answers, but not
a moment before.
This story is the most
fascinating story of all times, because it UNLOCKS THE DOOR to knowledge that has been
cut off since creation. Few will accept this knowledge. Few will apply it and
understand its importance for their lives, but those few will be blessed
beyond imagination! Let’s open our minds now to understand this precious
truth -- this truth so rare, so DANGEROUS, that Jesus Christ Himself, as well
as most of the original apostles, were martyred for proclaiming it!
It seems that every time God
reveals this knowledge to mankind, he either ignores it, or, like a filthy
pig, tramples it underfoot. We have even had a repeat in this very century of
this knowledge being restored, but as soon as God’s messenger of this Gospel
died, men began, just like in the first century, to treat it with contempt.
They sneer at it, belittle it, try to suppress it and ignore it. But, the
truth of God cannot be ignored. We have reached the very end of this age.
This Gospel has been proclaimed, in modern times,
only since about 1934, but was then suppressed by the wickedness of men,
starting in approximately 1986. Further, the apostates have now gone so far
as to SUE a minister loyal to this truth for copyright violation for daring
to reprint the book they have suppressed and burned (yes, they actually
gathered together copies of that book, Mystery of the Ages, and had a
huge bonfire with them; further, they had previously gathered up copies of
that book from church members under the guise of donating them to libraries
with the premeditated purpose of BURNING THEM!).
But this Gospel WILL GO to all the world as a witness before that great and terrible
day of the Lord! There is now before
God’s people an open door in Europe, and to over half of humanity formerly under the yoke of
communist bondage. No man can shut this door until this Gospel has been
preached before the entire world! [Rev. 3:7-8]
It is now God’s time to revive
the preaching of His precious Truth in MORE POWER THAN EVER BEFORE IN
HISTORY! If you are reading this material, it is possible that He is calling
you into His end time Work. If that is true, then you will receive the
blessing in your own personal life that comes with a
knowledge of God’s Truth. Unlike any other phase God’s Church has ever
went through, He is now on the verge of the RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS to His
people. In the last few months deceptions and misconceptions have come off my
mind like a veil being lifted. I think the reason some of this has not been
understood since about 50 AD or so is that the FIRST FEW YEARS OF GOD’S
CHURCH TURNED THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN, in the words of the religious leaders of
that day. I believe that when God’s knowledge is fully restored to His
Church, including the knowledge of how we should conduct our daily lives in
serving Him, and in understanding and acting like our brothers and sisters in
the Church really are brothers and sisters, and understanding the TRUTH
ABOUT OUR FAMILY IN GOD, then, and only then will God’s Work, for a very
short moment, ONCE AGAIN MAKE AN IMPACT UPON THE WORLD!
That day of restoration is now
dawning! You are seeing it start right before your very eyes. God has
foretold this, and He is even now restoring His precious Truth and
understanding to His Church after these long centuries BECAUSE THE FINAL HOUR
IS NOW HERE!
Let us understand, then, this
Gospel. Let us also understand how you came to the knowledge, attitudes, and
modes of thought that make up what is you. Wh en we go back to the beginning of the movie, so to
speak, we can then understand what the answers are for our day. May God
reveal this to your mind now, WHILE THERE IS STILL TIME!
