Veritation Value-Leaving Out The Old Leaven

When you receive the Seal you will find there is a bad kind of "leaven"--the pride of sin spreading through the whole Bread and Body of Christ. We purge this leaven out and become pure through veritation. Then we can be leavened again with the Leaven of God.

When the apostle Paul was founding churches he heard of sinful acts happening in one of them. A man was fornicating and the group had not rejected him. Yet this was no ordinary fornication--he had been with his Father’s wife.

This was something that would have been considered wrong even among the licentious unbelievers. The unbelievers would have punished the man or at least have officially ruled that it was wrong to do.

The Group was puffed up instead of mou
ful. They were actually boastful! They were not sorry. This was gratification of lust and they boasted of it instead of realizing how much worse it was for them now than ever before.

Paul condemned the sinful man to Satan for the purpose that he might be saved at the end. He said he would be delivered to Satan for the breaking down of the flesh so the Spirit could eventually be saved.

Jesus would claim the man in the end because he had believed on Jesus. And meanwhile Satan would ruin any chance he had at seducing any more of the saints. The destructive power of Satan was useful.

Paul called the sinful boasting of the group leaven. A little leaven spread into the whole of the Dough until all of it was leavened. The pride of sin had spread through the whole Group, affecting everyone.

The leaven we unlea
is the teachings of traditional religious leaders who do not speak the Words that God is speaking today. But we guard ourselves against any sinful beliefs spreading through our Group.

The leaven of one person can affect the whole batch of Dough. One member can affect the whole Body. It is spread through the Dough by the kneading which mixes it together. That which mixes us together may also corrupt us.

Just as we unlea
the teachings we also purge out the old leaven of sin and its pride. We become a new batch of dough without the teachings and without the pride of sin. We become unleavened.

We are wheat seeds--believers in Jesus--ground down by opposition, yet bound together by the Water of the Holy Spirit. We can be prepared as the Bread and Body of Christ without any leaven at all.

Jesus was the Passover Lamb sacrificed for us. Therefore we may celebrate the festival of our holiday, not with old leaven or evil leaven but with purity and truth. We are pure since we are not leavened and we are true because Jesus is true.

Yet even the teachings of Paul are a necessary holy Leaven. And the teachings of the sealed are Leaven giving new Life to the Bread and Body of Christ. Once we are unleavened, we may be leavened anew so we live the singular corporate Life.

When we first purge out the old leaven of teachings and sin we become pure and true as a body. This is our veritation when we become true since the only one teaching us is Jesus Christ Himself.

Once our veritation is complete we allow ourselves to be leavened with the teachings of the Seal. God the Father then seals our corporate body with new Life just as He sealed each of us individually.

It seems rather odd to refer to any of what follows as secrets. For one thing, the word “secret” implies that something is hidden and the wisdom below is anything but secret. In some form or fashion, you could find these in virtually any spiritual tradition. Second, “secret” implies that the spiritual wisdom that would lead one to the life he/she really wants is really only accessible by a few. And, the unfortunate tendency is not to regard your self as one of the select few. But, of course, you are.
