5. Heavenly Kingdom and Paradise Paradise refers to the realm in the spirit world for those spirit persons who have attained the level of life spirits. There they remain in waiting until the day when the gate to the Heavenly Kingdom is opened.

6. Spiritual Phenomena in the Last Days The Last Days are the time when people throughout the world return to the spiritual level reached by the first human ancestors just prior to the Fall. Just as Adam and Eve could communicate with God, today many people on earth can communicate with the spirit world.

Revelation – “You are the Lord.” 1)Lord and dominator of the whole creation Through the misinterpretation of this revelation many antichrists will appear in the Last Days. 2)The Lord’s representatives in their particular areas of responsibility

To evaluate this revelation one must know the qualifications for the LSA. 3) Elucidate the full contents of the Bible, show the way of salvation for all humanity 1) Know God’s situation and Heart 2) Solve the fundamental questions of life and the universe

Spiritual mediums are often confused and fall into conflict among themselves. Reason: 1) Differences in the level of the spirit world with which they are in communication and in the content of the revelations they receive 3) Revelation “You are the best!” 2) Focusing only on their vertical relationship with God

Temptations of satanic love, which Adam and Eve failed to overcome at the top of the growth stage

7. The First Resurrection Rev 14:1-5 Then I looked, and lo, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads.... No one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the earth. It is these who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are chaste; it is these who follow the Lamb wherever he goes; these have been redeemed from mankind as first fruits for God and the Lamb, and in their mouth no lie was found, for they are spotless.

Meaning of the first resurrection The resurrection enabling the fulfillment of the purpose of creation for the first time Who shall participate in the first resurrection? Those who are the first to believe in, follow and attend the LSA, assisting him in fulfilling all the indemnity conditions worldwide and in accomplishing the providence of restoration. They will be the first to have their original sin removed, become divine spirits, and fulfill the purpose of creation.

Meaning of the 144,000 (12 x 12) e.g., Jacob 12 sons Moses 12 tribes Jesus 12 disciples In order to complete the providence of restoration, the LSA must lay the foundation of victory over Satan’s world. He must set up horizontally, in his lifetime, the people who can restore through indemnity the positions of the saints and sages who have been invaded by Satan in the courses of the providence of restoration. These people are the 144,000.
