This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us

[gordon7777]

The church was founded before the foundation of the world as told, and it was manifested for you in these last days, made known to you, not that it was just achieved now, but that it is testified now. This was promised and prepared of God before the world began(this is Spiritual understanding foolish to natural man)

Upon this rock He builds His church, He establishes it in the earth, and when man is aware of it they are part of that household of God that already existed, this is the mystery in Christ, He was from the beginning, He calls things that be not as though they be(the church from the beginning always was) and now has commanded all men to repent, and then gave assurances to all men He has risen him from the dead.

Romans 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.

Titus 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
3 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;

Church, when ? Purposed in Himself from before the foundation of the world to gather all things in Him in Heaven and earth(this is the church of God)This had to be done in the fulness of time,  but is the predestined purpose..

Ephesians 1:9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:
10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

The Gentiles also are built up a spiritual house, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ, wherefore it is testified in Sion He lays a chief corner stone(Christ the cornerstone of the churches foundations) and in time past the Gentiles were not a people, but were a people born to this existing built church, which we see also, the builders were Israel who also always rejected these foundations..

1 Peter 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

The Gentiles were Aliens from the commonwealth of Israel(the tree that was the church always seen in the world) These covenants of promise, and were made nigh by the blood of Christ, and made peace breaking down the middle wall of partition, now no more strangers but fellowcitizens(members of the same church) with the saints(the prophets of the Lord) and of the household of God(the church from the foundation of the world) These Gentiles then, it is testified and explained now, are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone(from forever of course) and now together the building is framed together unto an holy temple in the Lord, and we Gentiles are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit..

Ephesians 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

We see that same church that was in the wilderness then, and the Angel that spoke to Moses in the wilderness to give the lively(living) oracles unto us(To Israel and to everyone in the world) Jesus Christ was with Israel all the way setting up the faith of His church in this world, but the Most High dwells not in temples made with hands(earthly churches)  Heaven is His throne and earth is His footstool already made..

Acts 7:37 This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.
38 This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:

Acts 7:44 Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
45 Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
46 Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47 But Solomon built him an house.
48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
49 Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?
50 Hath not my hand made all these things?

To anyone spiritual, it makes perfect sense that the church was before the foundation of the world, and now in these last times it was manifested to the rest of the world to know and believe in Christ's sacrifice for all, then the Gentile churches were established, and joined with what already existed as testified, the tree always was and did not beciome new, only the people were born....

Romans 11:17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

Romans 11:24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

Acts 16:5 And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily.

Psalm 22:31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.

The church began with the foundation of the prophets, Christ is in them prophets long before the Gentiles time 2000 years ago, making the foundation of the church through His Spirit in them..

1 Peter 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.

Again, read and actually see, all the examples of Israel persecuting the prophets and punished for our admonition, are upon whom the ends of the world are come, which is the foundation of the world and the church of the Lord..

1 Corinthians 10:6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

When was the Kingdom(the church) prepared ? From the foundation of the world, and all the blood of the prophets(the foundation of the church is the prophets and Christ chief stone with them, with the prophets) The works were finished from the foundation of the world(all was done by faith already) Christ was foreordained before the foundation of the world to begin the church and finish all by faith of God already. The Lamb we see testified, was slain from the foundation of the world, now manifested for you, seen by Abraham before it was done in earthly mans times, the harvest was always white already to be reaped, this is the Lord of Heavens faith after all, if we do not want to stay with earthly man, we need to see His own testimonies and cease from man..

John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
John 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.(the day of Christ is the end of this world seen already)

Matthew 25:34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

Luke 11:50 That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

Hebrews 4:3 For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

1 Peter 1:20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Romans 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

1 Corinthians 10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

1 Peter 2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
