Rick Atchley The Kingdom of God
Adolf
Hitler in Mein Kampf warns
about Rick Atchley's experiencing Spiritual Exhilaration of
hearing thousands of people making music. Adolf Hitler
speaking of HIS effort to capture and rule other people's
KINGDOM:
From the great agitator down to the
small trade-union official and the shop steward and
discussion
speaker; this work consisted of the hundreds of thousands of
meetings
at which, standing on the table in smoky taverns, these
people's orators hammered at the masses and thus
were able to acquire a
marvelous knowledge of this human material which really put
them in a
position to choose the best weapons for attacking the
fortress of
public opinion.
And it consisted, furthermore, in
the gigantic mass
demonstrations, these parades of
hundreds of thousands of men, which burned into the
small, wretched
individual the proud conviction that, paltry worm
as he was, he was nevertheless a part of a great dragon,1
beneath whose
burning breath the hated bourgeois world would some day go
up in fire and flame and the proletarian dictatorship
would celebrate its
ultimate final victory.
The mass
meeting is also necessary for the
reason that in it the individual, who at first while
becoming a
supporter of a young movement, feels lonely and easily
succumbs to
the fear of being alone, for the first time gets the picture
of a
larger community, which in most people has a strengthening,
encouraging effect.
The same man, within a company or a
battalion, surrounded by all his comrades, would set out on
an attack
with a lighter heart than if left entirely on his own. In
the crowd he always feels somewhat
sheltered, even if a thousand reasons
actually argue against it.
But the community of the great
demonstration not only
strengthens the individual, it also unites
and helps to create an esprit de corps. The
man who is exposed to grave tribulations, as
the first advocate of a new doctrine in his factory or
workshop, absolutely needs
that strengthening which lies in the conviction of being a member
and fighter in a great comprehensive body.
And he obtains an impression of
this body for the first time in the mass
demonstration. When from his little workshop or big
factory, in
which he feels very small, he steps for the first time
into a mass meeting and has thousands
and thousands of people of the same
opinions around him, when, as a seeker,
(Als
Suchender.' A Wagnerian
phrase, which
Hitler was apparently determined to use at all costs) he
is swept away by three or
four thousand others into the mighty effect of suggestive
intoxication
and enthusiasm when the visible success and
agreement of
thousands confirm to him the rightness of the new
doctrine and for
the first time arouse doubt in the truth of his previous
conviction - then he himself has succumbed to
the magic influence of what we designate as
'mass suggestion.'
The will, the longing, and also the power
of
thousands are accumulated in every
individual. The man who enters such a
meeting doubting and wavering leaves it inwardly reinforced:
he has become a link in the
community.
The National Socialist movement must never
forget this and in particular it must never let
itself be
influenced by those bourgeois
s who know
everything better, but who nevertheless have
gambled away a great state including their
own
existence and the rule of their class.
JESUS WARNED AND THE FOUND
SPIRITS WILL NEVER GO TO THESE MASS MEETINGS

be

THE CHRISTIAN ANTITHESIS:
only a small group who know that God rewards those who diligently
seek Him. Rhetoricians, singers and instrument players (hypocrites
says Christ) will attract the MASSED MULTITUDE because they are OF
the World and Jesus doesn't pray for them.

Quint.
Inst. 10 1.16 But the advantages conferred by
reading
and
listening are not identical. The speaker stimulates
us by the
animation of his
delivery, and
kindles the
imagination,
not by presenting us with an elaborate
[p. 13]
picture, but by bringing us into actual touch with
the things themselves. Then all is
life and
movement,
and we receive the
new-born offspring of his
imagination with
enthusiastic approval. We
are
moved not merely by the actual issue of the trial,
but
by all that the
orator himself has at
stake.
Quint.
Inst. 10 1.17 Moreover his voice, the
grace
of his gestures, the
adaptation of his delivery
(which is of supreme importance
in oratory), and, in a word, all his excellences in
combination, have their educative effect.
In
reading,
on the other hand, the
critical
faculty is a surer
guide, inasmuch as the listener's judgment is
often
swept away by his preference for a particular speaker,
or by the
applause
of an
enthusiastic
audience.

ABSOLUTE MARKS OF A CHURCH (SCHOOL) OF CHRIST OR
KINGDOM OF CHRIST
The Kingdom of Christ exists in territory ruled by Jesus
Christ the King of His Kingdom. Jesus didn't come
preaching the "gospel of the gospel" but:
Matthew 3:2 And
saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at
hand.
Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to
say,
Repent: for the kingdom
of heaven is at hand.
Matthew 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee,
teaching in
their synagogues,
and preaching the gospel
of the kingdom,
and healing all manner
of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
Jesus promised that some would see the Kingdom Come with
Power:
Mark
9:1 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you,
That there be some of
them that stand here, which shall not taste of death,
till they have seen
the kingdom of God come with power.
The Kingdom came with the Power of the Risen Jesus now King
and High priests. Afterward, the kingdom of God is the
kingdom of Christ because God made Jesus to be both Lord and
Christ:
Acts
20:25 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom
I have gone preaching
the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
Acts 28:31 Preaching the kingdom of God,
and teaching those things
which concern the Lord Jesus Christ,
with all confidence, no
man forbidding him.
The Church of Christ or the Kingdom of Christ has Jesus Christ
as the only Teacher when the elders teach that which has been
taught. That continues the Ekklesia, Qahal or Synagogue which
began in the wilderness. It's only role was to READ and
REHEARSE the Word of God. Church is defined as A
School OF Christ.
Because Jesus Christ is the King of His kingdom and High
Priest and only mediator, A Church of Christ has little or no
connection to the modern Worship Service Pattern which does
ACTS to try to gain God's favor and uses MUSIC which DESTROYS
the learning proces.
Matthew 28 teach
what Jesus commanded to be taught
Church is built upon (educated by) the Prophets and
Apostles.
Peter left us a memory of his eye- and ear- witness teaching
of the risen Jesus Christ.
Paul taught that the Prophets wrote by the Spirit OF Christ.
He warned that Jesus made the prophets more certain.
He wrote that this teaching was not subject to private
interpretation which is further expounding.
Paul warned that the Word must not be corrupted or sold at
retail meaning adultery.
The Kingdom of God is the
Kingdom of Christ:
Ephesians
5:5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean
person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater,
hath any inheritance
in the kingdom of Christ and of
God.
The danger of the Visible Church is
Ephesians 5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words:
for because of
these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children
of disobedience.
Ephesians 5:7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
Ephesians 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now
are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
Ephesians 5:17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding
what the will of the
Lord is.
Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is
excess;
but be filled with the
Spirit;
In this parallelism, the Will of the Lord is the Spirit
John 6:63 It is
the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth
nothing:
the words
that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they
are life.
In the Colossian version Paul makes it impossible to
misunderstand
Colossians 3:15 And let the peace of God rule in
your hearts,
to the which also ye
are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
Colossians 3:16 Let the
word of Christ
dwell in you richly
in all wisdom;
teaching and
admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual
songs,
singing with grace
in your hearts to the Lord.
Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed,
do all in the
name of the Lord [Kurios] Jesus,
giving thanks to God
[Theos] and the Father by him
Ephesians
5:19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and
spiritual songs,
singing and
making melody in your heart to the Lord;
Ephesians 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God
and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Ephesians 5:21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the
fear of God.
Colossians 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of
darkness,
and hath translated us into the kingdom of his
dear Son:
John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me
before it hated you.
John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love
his own:
but because ye are not
of the world,
but I have chosen you out
of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
John 15:20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant
is not greater than his lord.
If they have persecuted
me, they will also persecute you;
if they have kept my
saying, they will keep yours also.
John 15:21 But all these things will they do unto you for my
names sake,
because they know
not him that sent me.
John 15:22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had
not had sin:
but now they have
no cloke for their sin.
John 15:23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

Nic. Eth. 1175b.1
But
things that are akin to things of different kinds must
themselves differ in kind. [3]
A still clearer proof may be drawn
from the hindrance
that activities
receive from the
pleasure derived from other activities.
For instance, persons fond of the flute
cannot give their
attention to a philosophical discussion [The LOGOS]
when they overhear
someone playing the flute,
because they enjoy
music more than the activity in which they are engaged;
therefore the pleasure afforded by the music
of the flute
impairs the activity of study.

Because the ROLE of the synagogue--ekklesia is to SPEAK one
to another that which is written for our learning. NOTHING
written for our learning is set to a meter and cannot be
sung tunefully. Rather, the synagogue or COME
TOGETHER is for the SYLLOGISM or reading the WORD and coming
to an agreement; A DISCIPLE of Christ is a student of Christ
and does not do music in any modern sense.

- The church
#1577 ekklesia - assembly,
called out
ones, set apart ones, congregation; in Hebrew this
word is #6951 qahal
(kahal) - a "synagogue" (E. W.
Bullinger, Commentary on Revelation, p.
165-166),
an
assemblage, congregation, company from the root #6950
qahal meaning specifically a
coming together, an
assembling, a convocation, congregation; this
word
is used mostly for religious purposes
(see William Wilson's Old Testament Word
Studies, p. 92)
The
LXX uses the word
ekklesia to translate the Hebrew
qahal. Qahal
means to call, to assemble, and the noun form means a
congregation or
assembly. Solomon is called
koheleth the Preacher,
translated by the LXX ekklesiastes.
The earliest known occurrence of the word is found in Job
30:28, I
cried in the congregation. In the books of the
law, qahal
is rendered by the Greek word
sunagoge,
showing that the synagogue is the beginning of the New
Testament
church. Stephen in his speech which ended in his martyrdom
referred to
the history of Israel, and dwells for considerable length
upon the one
great leader Moses, saying in Acts 7:38:
- And
Moses commanded
them, saying, At the end
of every seven years, in
the solemnity of the
year of release, in the feast of tabernacles, Deut
31:10
-
- When
all Israel is come to appear before the Lord thy God
in the place which
he shall choose, thou
shalt read this law
before all Israel in
their hearing. Deut 31:11
-
- Gather (h6950) the people together, men, and women, and children, and thy stranger
that is within thy
gates,
that
they may hear,
-
and
that they may learn,- and
fear
the Lord your
God, and observe to do all the words of
this law: Deut 31:12

[4] The same thing occurs in other
cases when a man tries to do two things at once; the
pleasanter activity drives out the other, the more so
if it is much more pleasant, until the other
activity ceases altogether.
Hence, when we enjoy something very much, we can hardly do
anything else; and when we find a thing only mildly
agreeable, we turn to some other occupation; for instance,
people who eat sweets at the theater do so especially when the acting is bad.
[ 5]
And since our activities [of the flute] are
sharpened, prolonged and improved by their own pleasure, and
impaired by the pleasures of other activities, it is clear
that pleasures differ widely from each other. In fact alien
pleasures have almost the same effect on the activities as
their own pains; since, when an activity causes pain, this
pain destroys it, for instance, if a person finds writing or
doing sums unpleasant and irksome; for he stops writing or doing sums,
because the activity is painful.
Aristotle
on Politics 8

whether we ought rather
to think that music
tends in some degree to virtue
(music being capable of producing a certain quality of
character
just
as gymnastics
are capable of producing a certain quality of body,
music
accustoming men to be
able to rejoice
rightly);
3.
or that
it contributes
something to intellectual entertainment and culture (for
this
must be set down as a third alternative among those
mentioned).
Now
it is not difficult to see
that one must not make amusement the object
of the education of the young;
for amusement
does not go with
learning--learning is a painful process.
Jesus said that
preaching the Word is a painful process: it will get you
despised, rejected and killed.
Learning is a painful process: that is why THEOLOGY has
replaced the WORD and you can just parott what the doctors of
the Law tell you and force you to confess to make YOU a doctor
of the law so that YOU can take away the key to knowledllge.
Never get neutered by a "musical worship service" which the
texts Paul and John read trying to SILENCE the Words of Christ
in song and sermon:
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him:
for he that cometh to
God must believe that he is,
and that he is a
rewarder of them that diligently seek him. [ekzēt-eō
,]
1Peter
1:10 Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and
searched diligently,
who prophesied of the
grace that should come unto you:
1Peter 1:11 Searching what, or what manner of time the
Spirit OF Christ which was in them did signify,
when it testified
beforehand the sufferings of Christ,
and the glory that
should follow.
1Peter 1:12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto
themselves, but unto us they did minister the things,
which are now reported

which things the
angels desire to look into.
