The following revelation was given to David in Ohio on November 15, 2018. In this revelation, the prophet David is told to start the Council of 50 for the Church of Jesus Christ in Christian Fellowship, in preparation to organize the Fellowship. The Lord calls Allen to be the first member of the Council. This revelation was voted and accepted as scripture by the Council of Elders of the Fellowship January 5, 2019. We ask members of the Fellowship to read this revelation prayerfully to determine if it should be added to the Fellowship canon in preparation of the vote April 6, 2019
- After meeting for the second time with Allen, I inquired of the Lord to see if he had been called to help organize the Fellowship;
- After praying on this the voice of the Lord came to me saying: Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you, my servant David: I am well pleased with your offering and service to my cause which you have made;
- For unto this end have I raised you up and set you apart, that I might show forth my wisdom through the weak things of the earth after they have been humbled.
- Your prayers are acceptable before me, and in answer to them I say unto thee: You have been called to make a solemn proclamation of my gospel, and to teach all they that will hear my voice and heed the direction of my Spirit.
- You have come unto me seeking direction for my servant Allan and for the Fellowship and behold I shall give you both.
- ¶ Verily, verily, I say unto you my servant Allen: Listen to the voice of him who speaketh, to the Word of the Lord your God, and hearken ye unto the calling wherewith you are called,
- For behold, I have called you in the past and I am calling you even now to be a High Priest in my Fellowship, and to give counsel unto my servant David.
- As I have said in the past: if you have desires to serve God you are called to the work; and the field is white already to harvest;
- Therefore, thrust in your sickle with all your might, and I will bless you, and you will perish not, but bring salvation to your soul and unto many others.
- And I say unto you: Labor in my vineyard; call upon the inhabitants of the earth, and bear testimony, and prepare the way for the commandments and revelations which are to come.
- But behold, as I have said before, faith, hope, charity and love, with an eye single to the glory of God, will qualify you for this work; and if you have not these you will strive in darkness and in vain;
- Have faith, therefore, and I shall be with you, and my Spirit shall go before you to prepare the way for all those you would teach my Gospel.
- ¶ And behold, you did feel my Spirit give the call to the Quorum of Seventy within the Offices of the Priesthood, and as a Seventy you will be called to preach my Gospel and help organize those that would fellowship in my name.
- But this is not all; at the first you will be called to the Council of Fifty within the Order of the Ministry to help organize the Church of Jesus Christ in Christian Fellowship.
- And these roles you shall fill until others are called that you may focus fully on your role both in the Offices of the Priesthood and in the Order of the Ministry as a Seventy in my name.
- And this command I give to you, and this shall be your charge: Desire this ministry with all your heart; for if you have this desire you are called of God to go into the world and preach my gospel.
- Therefore, never cease striving until you have seen me face to face; strengthen your faith casting off all doubts, repent of your sins and all your unbelief;
- I say unto you, do this and nothing can prevent you from coming unto me;
- Your ordination will not be full and complete until both God and man have laid hands upon you.
- ¶ And unto my servant David I say: You shall lay hands upon my servant Allen and set him apart as soon as you are able;
- Be faithful, doubting not but believing, and I shall make a straight path for you that my will shall be done.
- ¶ And this I say unto you: All that are called shall be called to the Council of Fifty within the Order of the Ministry until my Church, the Fellowship, is established.
- Therefore, go thee unto the world crying repentance in my name;
- And this commandment I give unto all the Elders of the Fellowship, that everyone that will embrace their call with singleness of heart may be ordained and sent forth, even as I have spoken.
- I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God; be clean ye that bear the vessels of the Lord. So mote it be. Amen.
