In my previous book, the "Vastness of God" a New Dimension,
I wrote about the first two chapters of Genesis, of
the inspired Version.
In that book, I gave a rendering, as best as I could, about God
setting up the eternal table of grace and mercy and an invitation to eternal joy for mankind.
Was it by mere chance that someone named Satan came
along to throw rocks into an eternal plan?
I dare say it, a myriad of souls could have wandered into the eternal sewer of darkness.
Could it be as the elements settled among all that God created,
that one being became the eternal opposer?
Now........I believe that each one of us has elements of the
eternal Godhead in us, in varying amounts, perhaps as individuals, all having an equal chance of climbing back upon
an exceeding high mountain.
But, unlike Satan, we were not the chief among many at the first.
What I believe is that Satan fell, to what I can only describe, (weakly),--- to an implosion of horror.
What caused Satan to fall? One clue.....pride.
Do we not all have somewhat elements of this same pride?
Now, do we wonder just how Satan led a third of the hosts of
heaven to not take upon them flesh and blood?--but left their
first estate?
Pride.........heh?
Pride cometh before the what? fall....
Satan was described as the highest archangel in heaven,
a post that usually one puts trust in mightily, right?
Why was Satan on top of the mountain?
Satan too had elements of God.
Was he created?
Well, yes, and no. All of us were created by God, and at the first,
as Paul described brilliantly, we were all lined up at a perhaps
fantastically long line perhaps as long as the universe is wide,
and like I said in my previous book, looked for the high calling of God, not one single soul thinking anything but reaching to the finish line.
And the first thing that we noticed upon being spoken into existence, spiritually, is that we were different, and individuals,
different from one another, perhaps some by a mere quark particle, but all different nevertheless.
What happened then is we must have started comparing those
differences and wondered as to why we were different.
Now, what happened? Jealousy, and all yet not hate.
Then Satan came to the Heavenly Father and thought he could present to him an offer that he thought God could never refuse.
I guess that Satan then painted himself into a corner that he could never escape from. He proposed that when reviewing the eternal and perfect plan of God, that he would make it possible that not one soul would be "lost" to God,....wow, he thought...what a brilliant plan, no one lost, wallah, perfect, right?
Then Jesus walked up to the Father and proposed a very simple plan, the Perfect
Will of the Father, declaring, "Thy will be done."
Gen:3:3----and glory be thine forever....
Satan wanted God to give him "his honor?"
God, knowing the heart of Satan, knew that this thought was to his undoing,
as God could not allow the complete destruction of his perfect plan.
Now dear brethren in Jesus---this is the first among many provocations of Satan
from the very beginning, and could it have been that only he by chance brought
Spiritual Warfare to the table?
Think with me, the highest archangel, probably adored by nearly every single soul,
stood before the great God, as you perhaps gleaned from my earlier book and prayed
with unwavering faith hopefully, -----we all viewed this monster as a very beautiful
being---and boy, how beautiful?---I do not even know at all just how beautiful
he was--(but later we find that the appearance of Jesus was so far removed as to
that beauty?)
Well, anywho.....boy oh boy on boy, what a sight!!!!---everyone was there, you and I
standing there, and the very first challenge to
God broke forth...and ever since, he comes along, and tells us not to believe
anything that God says!
(gen:4 :13)
We find in gen:3:4---that the very throne of God was sought by the supreme adversary,
and boy, did he go for it, ,,,---it is like, he sought to steal the very seat of power eternally.
I believe that if God did not stop Satan then and there, not one of us would end up anywhere near God, oh no, but if you read further in the book of Revelation, all of us,
except for Jesus, were snookered by the beauty of a very powerful deceiver.
Did Satan know the mind of God? No!!!!
Do we know the mind of God right now? The saints are trying to know his mind,
and trying to put on Jesus.
Why, even God is trying to refine his greatest eternally, into knowing his mind.
By the power of Jesus, from that time forward (gen:3:4) ---that supreme opposer
became Satan. and it says in Gen: 4:13...that men born on earth , this earth,
began to wander from the Perfect Will of the Father, becoming carnal, stimulating
and devilish.
Wow,. what a drastic change!!!---Everything before that time was in perfect harmony,
abundant peace, and absolute joy beyond measure, but no one, absolutely no
one yet knowing God!
We see the march of history happening, and the division among men, so great, as to cause some to enter into a horrible pact of evil
in Lamech and such....
And the advent of Jesus was prophesied even then....
then comes Methusaleh...ooooh boy, what a prideful fall did he take!!!
Who brings upon us death? God? ...absolutely not, as verse 29 of chapter 6 reveals that "they have brought upon themselves death."
When we accept sin, in any fashion, no matter how small, unwittingly and unknowingly, we bring upon our selves death.
So who has God provided for the only escape route from death? Jesus.
We find in chapter 6 of Genesis that a book was written--I believe even by holy angels, by "the
finger of God."--"in the language" ---- that all understood (at that time only one earthly language)
And in that same language, Enoch Spoke forth the words of God--as the people "trembled" and
"could not stand in his presence"--6:48
(could this be the spiritual language of the Holy Ghost, of the Godhead?) (and could have
Enoch spoke by the power of Jesus given to him?)
Jesus revealed our fallen state, and our critical need to repent, or turn from our sins, and receive
life eternally with God. (Now, note, there was no Terrestrial or Telestial laws established at that time.) (the celestial was offered to the Zion of Enoch's day and is specifically made for that kingdom only--with God and his only begotten forever as one.)
I believe at that moment, there was only one law to follow, the Law of love, and that to have
that love manifested among men, there had to be that supreme law, as well as the law of forgiveness,
and repentance absolutely needed----how many times have we loved others not as we should?
