Preached by Apostle Aje Pelser

Harvester Reformational Church, Cape Town

Scripture: Isaiah 4

These glories of Church help to raise the standard in your Church life.

1. The Branch of the Lord’s Church is beautiful and glorious.

He is the Vine and we are the branches! Abide in Him and bear much fruit!
Glory: H3519, kâbôd, BDB Definition:
“glory, honour, glorious, abundance, riches, honour, splendour, glory, dignity, reputation
reverence,”
Beauty: H6643, tsebı̂y, (Say: tseb-ee’), BDB Definition:
“beauty, glory, honour, decoration, roebuck, gazelle; perhaps like the rare beauty of an extinct animal”

2. The Fruit of the Church is excellent and appealing.

Jesus said: “You shall know them by their fruit.” Matt. 7:16; John 15
Psa 147:1 Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant (Delightful, sweet: H5273); and praise is comely (Strong’s H5000: beautiful).

3. The remnant of Church Zion will be called a holy, peaceful church.

Jerusalem is a city of peace. But we seek the heavenly Jerusalem, no the earthly one. In fact, the heavenly Jerusalem is the Church of the Firstborn registered in heaven. It’s amazing how few Christians actually realize that we are a part of that heavenly Jerusalem by faith, they are waiting for the earthly Jerusalem to be restored – keep waiting, we’re already there by faith in Jesus name – Hebrews 12:22-24 is our ticket!

4. The records of Church will preserve life and knowledge.

We are to rejoice because our names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, in heaven: Luk. 10:19,20Rev. 20:12;
The Book of Remembrance
Mal 3:16 Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, And the LORD listened and heard them; So a book of remembrance was written before Him For those who fear the LORD And who meditate on His name.
Mal 3:17 “They shall be Mine,” says the LORD of hosts, “On the day that I make them My jewels. And I will spare them As a man spares his own son who serves him.”
Mal 3:18 Then you shall again discern Between the righteous and the wicked, Between one who serves God And one
