The word that is proclaimed on the first time is not inherited until the second time. Furthermore, the period between the first and second times is the trial of faith. The trial of faith is the season of our fellowship in the sufferings of Christ, in which the faith of the Son of God, which we receive through the word of faith, produces the virtue of Christ in our lives. The fruit of the trial of faith, which is the formation of Christ in our lives, is more precious than gold. 1Pe 1:6‑7. In relation to the word on lampstand churches, the last fifty years have been a trial of faith, where the word of the Lord has tried us for the purpose of reforming our culture so that it is consistent with the fellowship of Yahweh.
Notably, it was the two prophetic dreams of Pharaoh that initiated the fulfilment of the second time for Joseph. When Joseph interpreted the dreams, he said, ‘The dreams of Pharaoh are one; God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do.’ Gen 41:25. Furthermore, he said, ‘The dream was repeated to Pharaoh twice because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.’ Gen 41:32. This statement highlights the second-time principle. That is, the one word of God is fulfilled by God in the second time.
The Lord is now proclaiming the word on lampstand churches a second time because we presently live in the latter phase of the seventh world kingdom. We are fast approaching the time when the Father will take His seat to judge the seventh world kingdom and establish His kingdom on the earth. When the Father takes His seat, it will initiate all the events that belong to the time of the end. Christ is presently restoring the administration of presbyteries and lampstand churches in every nation because it is the only administration that is suitable for the fullness of times.
