DAVID WAS ONE or
THE ELECT CHURCH

David was one Of the elect Church
Of God, anoin,ed as such the same as
Christ. Proof, Psalms LXXNlX-iS "a
25, For the Lord is our defence and
the Holy One Of Israel Is our King
Then thou spakcst in vision 10 thy
Holy One, and saidst, | have laid help
upon one that is might. ] have ex-
allied one chosen out Of the people.
have found David My servant: with
Ny Holy OIL | have anointed him
With whom My hand shall be estab-
! lished; Mine arm also shall strength
en- him. (2l yer). Psalms LXXXIX-
"a 10 40 ver.). But My failthfulness
and My mercy shall be with him; and
in My name shall his horn be exalted
He shall cry unto Me, Thou art my
Father, my God, and the rock of My
salvation. Also ! will make him My
firstborn, higher than the kings of the
earth. My mercy will | keep for him
for evermore, and My covenant shall
stand fast with him His seed also
will | make to endure forever, and his
throne as the days of heaven My
covenant will | not break, nor alter
the thing that is gone out Of My lips.
Once ] have sworn by My holiness,
that | will not lie unto David. His
seed shall endure forever, and his
throne as the sun before me. II shall
be established forever as the moon,
and as a faithful witness in heaven
So David was anointed to the Church
Elect, and of the heavenly calling,
Gods word says so. Matt XXLV-35.
Brother r. in his sermon of Jan. Is,
1915 also says He DAVID was not
followed of Christ. He was a follow
or of Christ Christ was God, the son
of God. In the beginning John I-1-2-
l4). Brother r. says: His (Christ's)
blessing of resurrection will be to
human nature, earthly nature, and his
reward will be share in that restored
Paradise, which will eventually be
world wide. He (Bro. R.) claims at
Christs coming in the first resurrec-
ton the reward Of the just will then be
in Paradise, and this earth is Para
disc, The word says Paradise is in
heaven where Gods throne is. (II Cor
MIA Rev 2-7). The tree Of life
is in the midst of the Paradise of God |
IN heaven, not on this earth. Again
Bro. r. pictures Jesus leading forth
multitude of captives (Eph. VS.
