The Steward of God’s Grace

Are apostles living today? Does the church need apostles today?Chief Apostle Dr. Eric vonAnderseck teaches and preaches through apostolic appointment. The revelations that God has blessed him with over a 30 year span is for the transition of the church back to the vine of Christ’ covenant.

The Touchstone of Truth is again given to the church, which is the sign of true apostolic stewardship.

Jesus Christ is the King of the covenant, He is the King and steward of our faith, but He remained hidden and unread in the 6th week when the church strayed from Apostolic Governance. Although the church sought long and hard for the key, looking in the text, in themselves, in their passions, in reformers and in charismatic personalities, the key is in appointed steward of God’s choosing.

The key is the steward who is prepared of God with the revelation to transition the church back to her first love. The steward has the key of David for the purpose of giving direction to the church.

God wants to teach the church the true stewardship of His grace and to grow confident in her gifts. God calls a single steward to lead His people, not a company of stewards as the Bible declares: “And by a prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he preserved” (Hos.12:13).

The Spirit of the Lord works with the revelation through the steward. Those who seek to walk in the revelation apart from the steward is as the gold of the temple taken from the house of God and profaned in the house of Baal.

The church is now entering into the Second 8th Week, which is a new dawning and new door of grace, mercy, peace, and healing. A new week is a time of new direction. The door of the 6th week is closed and the door of the Second 8th Week is open. It is time now to build faith in the true history of God, to return man to the true testimony of His Oath. A time of clemency is determined by God for those who will come into covenant with Him and abide under the shadows of His wings in the sanctified house of His praise. God is now restoring the church through the steward of His grace to bring the church into one faith. The direction of the church will change as the Christian leaders and believers begin to use this new compass for faith. Below you will find the revelations God blessed Apostle Eric with to bless the church. Each revelation is a groundbreaking point of restoration and transition for the church. His doctoral thesis, gap reports, and doctrine of Christ is setting new standards for Christian education. Through this stewardship God is establishing the church in the true image of Jesus Christ.

Restore True Stewardship

Moses was the knowledge steward of the First Covenant. God gave Moses the commandments (words) of the First Covenant and Moses gave these commandments to the people. The pattern of the covenant came through Moses and that made him the chief steward of God’s house (Heb.3:2). Everything Moses shared in that pattern was to contribute to that house, and not taken for one’s own use. By this God established this testimony: The person who receives the revelation of the pattern, which is the record and mystery of Christ is God’s steward.

• True stewardship of the church is through Apostolic Governance. The true steward of His grace measures faith to Christ as the original pattern and provides the tokens of the covenant of Jesus Christ, which provides substance for the soul to build with.
  


• The true steward of His grace has the divine foundation of truth, which possesses equity of knowledge in the equity of the Spirit, binding the saints in faith in the jubilee of Christ.
  


• False stewards supply the church with tokens of promise, which provides no substance for the soul to build with, but rather drives the soul into confusion.
  


• False stewards provide the pattern of the flesh for faith to be examined, which reflects the record of man. Faith is answerable to the flesh and the soul journeys in dry places.

Restore the True Testimony of God

To turn the hearts of the people back to Himself God is reestablishing His true testimony upon the earth and claiming authorship of all creation and reclaiming the God-Code by the Oath of His Word, thus revealing the secret of life in Himself and restoring man’s hope in Him.

• By establishing the testimony of God in the Record of Jesus Christ and the true Oath of the Lord the steward of His grace returns the church to her true roots and memorial of God. A sword is given to the righteous in the Second 8th Week to return mankind to the true testimony of God to understand their true origin, purpose, and destiny in Him. This history of God is inscribed within the heart of every man. Dr. vonAnderseck's new publication "The God-Code: The Secret of Life" will unfold more of these revelations.
  


• False stewards preach the history of man's fall, which is a false history for it tethered to Satan's oath. The roots of the confusion of the church is her confidence in this false knowledge gained by Satan's breach.
  

Restore the True Worship of God

Over the years much time and money has been spent trying different worship styles to find something that satisfies the soul and is acceptable to God. From the grand choirs and pageantries to the simple bended knee, every believer strives to make his worship meaningful. The early church did not experience this same difficulty of deciding which track worship must follow. The apostles were present to give order to doctrine, and the function of the church naturally followed that due order. For we read in Acts 2:42, “And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.”

• All the tokens of Christ are being restored to the church through the steward of His grace, including the priesthood of the believer. Pure praise is returned to the lips of the saints as they are again taught how to offer spiritual sacrifices of prophecy, which is the doxology of faith. Dr. vonAnderseck's new publication "Pure Praise: Spiritual Doxology of Faith" will help the church transition into her priesthood.
  


• In the house of God the living waters continue to spring forth with new life every assembly; The grace of God always keeps things fresh and sprouting like spring. The knowledge of the Lord as the light of His presence never decreases, never grows weak, never diminishes, and never wearies the soul.
  


• False stewards engage God in worship on the grounds of their own passions, hoping to stir faith in the heart. Revival in the house of Baal depends on the enthusiasm of one's aspiration to empower the will. But the power of God's grace is not sustaining the will and not giving substance to the soul, so believers have to look for new challenges. When something new comes along like the laughter movement or the false prophetic movement or the false purpose movement, believers are caught in the wave of fleshly zeal; And because it speaks so loudly to who they are as a fallen Adamite and who they want to be, as one risen from the ashes of defeat, they call it "spiritual" and catch hold of it for a while.

Restore True Discernment

God established the difference between the record of your soul and the record of Jesus Christ, the difference between the issues of man and the faith of God, the difference between truth and error, the bitter and the sweet, light and dark. But there is no discernment in the dark. Discernment is only by the light of God’s grace.

• The steward of His grace gives eyes of discernment back to the church. The knowledge, pattern, tools, system, temperament, and fruit of the kingdom of God are clearly revealed in sharp contrast to the knowledge, pattern, tools, system, and fruit of the kingdom of darkness. The flesh follows the spirit of the kingdom it is tethered to and the temperament of each kingdom is manifested-for the virtue of the kingdom is the tool you use. To the righteous, the virtue of their tool is Christ: Grace carries the image of Christ. But to the wicked (those who have an evil heart of unbelief), the virtue of their tool is their logic: Logic carries their own image.
  


• False stewards want their image to stand out as the face of God. The aspiration carries the person instead of faith and the believer uses self as a testimony-their faith carries a testimony of themselves in place of the testimony of God. When the aspiration carries faith it produces envy, strife, and division. One's logic replaces reason for faith. People can comprehend truth by their own logic and fail from the grace of God. How is this possible? First, they mold their confidence with their ability to intellectually unfold the doctrine of Christ and faith follows the rhythm of their own logic. Second, flattery, which is false grace, enters into their passions and follows the thread of their imagination. Charity is a product or expression of their own hands and not the working of the Spirit. Equity of faith is absent for they miss the reason of faith. When our reason falls into our own logic faith falls back into the rhythm of nature to confirm the illusions one has of oneself.

Restore the Second Covenant

God made a promise to Himself and to humanity concerning the terms of our redemption, and then He restricted His covenant terms to the Oath He made, that our faith might be made living and perfect only in Him. God takes ownership of your soul when you are in covenant with Him. The steward of His grace serves the church by restoring her to the terms of the Second Covenant: the knowledge, the tools, and the work of the Spirit.

• Apostle Eric established the Apostolic Institute of Theology to raise up a new generation of Christian leaders who are equipped to teach and preach the Second Covenant of Jesus Christ. He also established the World Wide Apostolic Assemblies as places of worship where believers can hear the Second Covenant taught in its fulness by confirmed apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers, and participate in the true worship of God.
  


• This stewardship is establishing this pattern: covenant, faith, and promise. We must understand that God set faith in order by covenant not by the promise. By covenant God ordered the behavior of the children of Israel. By covenant the children of Israel understood the hope of their calling.
  


• False stewards remove faith from the covenant to the promise When faith is removed from the covenant and moved to the promise faith is being defined by the promise rather than the covenant-faith is taught in reverse and man tries to live by the promise and not by the covenant. When man lives by the promise and not by the covenant he preaches the promise, not the covenant, and he tries to force God's hand to meet his needs and call this "standing on the promises of God."

Restore the Spiritual Tools of the Second Covenant

God gave us the tokens of our faith in Jesus Christ, the spiritual tools by which faith is measured to Him. The covenant identifies the standard (Jesus Christ) that measures the fulness of God to us; And this is why our faith is expressed by the tokens of Christ and not expressed by our frailty.

• Restoring the church to her first love by setting in her hands the sanctified tools of Jesus' covenant apostle Eric preaches and teaches the church how to touch Jesus with the virtue of His tools that He may touch her with the virtue of His grace. The Christian labor of faith, cycles or growth, service to God, purpose, body ministry, and spiritual warfare are tied to the tools of Christ's covenant.
  


• When your stewardship is not properly established in God's covenant and His grace, it will be misdirected by the flesh and this is why we see today's church placing much emphasis on God's purpose for you in regard to carnal tools of skills, talents, signature and gifts. By focusing God's purpose on your inner self, Christ is brought down to the level of the flesh and the priesthood is defiled.

Restore True Reciprocation in Kind

The church has always desired a deep intimate relationship with God but failed to understand God’s expectation of reciprocation and increase by His Spirit. Christians did not understand how reciprocation is reflected in the Second Covenant commandment to “grow” in the “knowledge” of the Lord.

• The divine plan, pattern, and tools of our reciprocation is again given to the church through the steward of His grace. As the church returns to her first love by embracing the tools of Christ's covenant believers will increase in faith, virtue, and charity by our reciprocation of Christ to God. When the soul carries the virtues of Christ, in His knowledge (the power of His record), the Spirit carries that work within the soul, (witness) and our lips reciprocate that testimony to God.
  


• The spirit of the world has long taken the grace of God to bring it down to the level of one's own psychology and cleverly develops a false priesthood for it's utterance and reciprocation. Those who minister by the spirit of this world loop themselves and those who hear them to a continued experience of death.
  


• Those engaged with a fleshly priesthood cannot discern what they are struggling with. Their struggle has to do with resolving the conscience and therefore their priesthood is always trying to puzzle together their reason and give value to their suffering. Their suffering does not have anything to do with God's longsuffering, but with their ignorance-the conflict of their conscience and circumstances.
