IN THE BEGINNING
In this
article we will look at the plan that God has had for
His created beings and His offspring. This article
will contain new knowledge for most, if not all of its
readers. Before anything else existed, God the Father
was alone. He is called the one true God because He
alone has existed for all eternity. “BEFORE
THE
BEGINNING GOD THE FATHER” God the
Father is the self-existent One, He has always
existed. God the Father inhabits eternity. He had no
beginning. God the Father is the one and only true
God. There is only one true God, which is one God who
has existed forever and that is the Father. That is
the definition of being a true God. Isa 57:15 For thus
says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity,
whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy
place, With him who has a contrite and humble
spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to
revive the heart of the contrite ones. Joh 17:3 And this is eternal life, that
they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus
Christ whom You have sent. God reveals
many things to us, especially if we are obedient. Deu 29:29 “The
secret things belong to the LORD our God, but those
things which are revealed belong to us and to our
children forever, that we may do all the words of
this law. What does
God the Father look like? We do not know what He looks
like. Humans have never seen God’s face. We know that
He looks like us because man was made in His image. 1Co 11:7 For a man
indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the
image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of
man. Exo 33:20 But He
said, “You cannot see My face; for no man shall see
Me, and live.” Moses was
able to see God’s back, but he did not describe God.
In the past God the Father has appeared to people in
six ways. They are in a cloud, in fire, in a
whirlwind, in a vision, invisible or a dream. “A
POINT
IN TIME CALLED THE BEGINNING” In the Old
Testament Jesus is not called Jesus, He is called God
or the Word. God the Father is called LORD in the Old
Testament but He is also called God, He and Jesus are
also known by other names too. God the Father and
Jesus are a family they are Father and Son. Unlike God
the Father, God the Word (who later became Jesus
Christ) has not existed forever. God the Word is God
the Father’s Son. God the Word was born in a time God
calls the beginning. Everything that was made, was
made by God the Father through Jesus Christ. Joh 1:1 In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God. Joh 1:2 He was in
the beginning with God. Joh 1:3 All things
were made through Him, and without Him nothing was
made that was made. Eph 3:14 For this
reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ, Eph 3:15 from whom
the whole family in heaven and earth is named, God the
Father has only one Son. The following scriptures show
that truth. Joh 1:14 And the
Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld
His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the
Father, full of grace and truth. Joh 3:18 “He who believes in Him is not
condemned; but he who does not believe is
condemned already, because he has not believed in
the name of the only begotten Son of God. SONS
OF
GOD AND ANGELS After Jesus
or the Word was born to the Father, it was decided
that Jesus would have sons born to Him. We feel that
the sons of God may have been born before the angels
were created. We base this on the following scripture. Job 38:7 When the
morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God
shouted for joy? The sons of
God are in fact sons (or grandsons) of God the Word.
Notice the following scripture. Job 1:6 Now there
was a day when the sons of God came to present
themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came
among them. In the above
scripture the word God used is Eloheem which is Jesus
or the Word. The word LORD is Jehovah which is God the
Father. So the
scripture with the meanings of the words in the above
verse is as follows: Now there
was a day when the sons of God the Word (Jesus Christ)
came to present themselves before the Father and Satan
also came among them. Lucifer is
also a son of God. This is how we can identify him as
a son of God. Isa 14:12 “How you
are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the
morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who
weakened the nations! The name
Lucifer means morning star. The above scripture calls
Lucifer son of the morning. How are you fallen from
heaven O morning star son of the morning. Jesus is the
bright and Morning star. Lucifer is the son of Jesus. Rev 22:16 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to
testify to you these things in the churches. I am
the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright
and Morning Star.” In Job 38 v
7 the morning stars sang together, that would have
been God the Word and His son Lucifer, there may have
been other morning stars also but at the time of
writing, we can only identify two. It is
thought that the earth was created approximately 4.5
billion years ago. Gen 1:1 In the
beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Once God the
Father and God the Word created the universe, they
decided that the sons of God could live on earth.
Possibly around this time the angels were created
also. The sons of God and the angels were put on the
earth. God the Word had many sons and or grandchildren
or great grandchildren to God the Father. When the
universe was created the sons of God were obedient to
God and happy with the prospect of their new home. Job 38:7 When the
morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God
shouted for joy? At this time
the dinosaurs possibly lived on the earth. The
dinosaurs are thought to have roamed the earth
approximately 245 million years ago. Now all
those years ago the sons of God, the angels and the
dinosaurs were on the earth. It is believed that the
dinosaurs were on the earth for approximately 165
million years. Possibly the sons of God and the angels
were on the earth for this amount of time. WHAT
IS
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE ANGELS AND THE SONS OF
GOD? The sons of
God can have children born to them and are born sons
of God. The angels cannot reproduce and are created
beings. We have
clearly shown how the sons of God are sons of God the
Word, now notice how they reproduce with mankind. Gen 6:1 Now it
came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face
of the earth, and daughters were born to them, Gen 6:2 that the
sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were
beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all
whom they chose. Gen 6:3 And the
LORD said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man
forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall
be one hundred and twenty years.” Gen 6:4 There were
giants on the earth in those days, and also
afterward, when the sons of God came in to the
daughters of men and they bore children to them.
Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of
renown. Notice also
how the serpent or Satan has seed, therefore he is a
son of God. Gen 3:15 And I will
put enmity Between you and the woman, And between
your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.” Angels are
created and cannot reproduce. Mar 12:25 For when they rise from the
dead, they neither marry nor are given in
marriage, but are like angels in heaven. Heb 1:5 For to
which of the angels did He ever say: “YOU ARE MY
SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU”? And again: “I WILL
BE TO HIM A FATHER, AND HE SHALL BE TO ME A SON”? Heb 1:6 But when
He again brings the firstborn into the world, He
says: “LET ALL THE ANGELS OF GOD WORSHIP HIM.” Heb 1:7 And of the
angels He says: “WHO MAKES HIS ANGELS SPIRITS AND
HIS MINISTERS A FLAME OF FIRE.” Heb 1:13 But to
which of the angels has He ever said: “SIT AT MY
RIGHT HAND, TILL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES YOUR
FOOTSTOOL”? Heb 1:14 Are they
not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister
for those who will inherit salvation? Now we have
clearly shown the difference between the born sons of
God who can reproduce themselves and the angels who
were created beings and who cannot reproduce. Back now to
the earth, the sons of God, angels, and dinosaurs have
possibly inhabited the earth for millions of years,
the dinosaurs are dated at inhabiting the earth
approximately 245 million years ago. There is no way
of knowing when exactly the sons of God and the angels
began to live on the earth, we only know the
approximate dates of the dinosaurs and use that as a
rough guide. After some
time, things changed. The sons of God and the angels
who were content and happy, were being led down a
different path of disobedience by Lucifer. He was a
son of God, and probably along with Satan who is the
arch deceiver and murderer, and also another son of
God, formed an alliance to push for more power, many
of the sons of God and angels joined this rebellion.
Lucifer was more than likely in a very high position
here on earth, possibly sent to govern the earth by
carrying out God’s laws. He was possibly over all the
sons of God and angels on the earth. Notice in the
scripture below how he had a throne. However he
coveted more power, he wanted to be greater in
authority than God the Father, in fact he wanted to
take over the very throne of God. The
following scripture does not mention Satan, but it is
a very good assumption that he was right in the thick
of these negotiations. Isa 14:12 “How you
are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the
morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who
weakened the nations! Isa 14:13 For you
have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I
will also sit on the mount of the congregation On
the farthest sides of the north; Isa 14:14 I will
ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be
like the Most High.’ This
alliance and rebellion caused catastrophic destruction
to the earth. This rebelling army consisting of the
sons of God and angels could have numbered in the
millions. As they joined forces to take over the
throne of God. The ensuing battle resulted in the
earth being left without form and void as described in
Gen 1 v 2. It was at this time that the dinosaurs all
perished. It is thought that the dinosaurs died
approximately 65 million years ago. Therefore, the
sons of God and the angels may well have lived on the
earth in peace and harmony with God for millions of
years. However, this is only speculation as to how
long they were content to live under the authority of
the Father and God the Word. We can only assume these
dates based on what scientists estimate the age of the
earth and the time the dinosaurs lived and died. The
following scripture shows the horrific state of the
earth after the rebellion by the alliance of angels
and sons of God to fight against the Almighty God, God
the Word and the faithful angels. If any sons of God
remained faithful they would have fought along with
God as well. Gen 1:2 The earth
was without form, and void; and darkness was on the
face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering
over the face of the waters. As we can
see in the above account, a lot of time and a lot of
events happened between Genesis 1 v 1 and Genesis 1 v
2. After this
terrible catastrophe and the dreadful condition of the
earth, God decided to make the earth able to be
inhabited once more. This time
with humans instead of spirit beings. THE
EARTH
WAS RENEWED AND ORIGINAL MAN CREATED Psa 104:30 You send
forth Your Spirit, they are created; And You renew
the face of the earth. Now we come
to the creation of original man. As you no doubt have
read in newspapers or books, remains of ancient humans
have been located. These human remains have been dated
as old as 360,000 years. The Bible
tells us that there was a creation of man before Adam
and Eve, we have called them original man. Let’s look
at the account in Genesis and compare the differences. In the verse
below which is the original man, male and female were
created together. However, in Gen 2 v 7 Man {Adam} was
created on his own, it was not till quite a while
later that woman {Eve} was fashioned from his rib. Gen 1:26 Then God
said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to
Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish
of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the
cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping
thing that creeps on the earth.” Gen 1:27 So God
created man in His own image; in the image of God He
created him; male and female He created them. Both
original man and the animals were created as
vegetarians. Gen 1:29 And God
said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields
seed which is on the face of all the earth, and
every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall
be for food. Gen 1:30 Also, to
every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air,
and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which
there is life, I have given every green herb for
food”; and it was so. Animals were
created before man in the original creation. When Adam
and Eve were created the animals were created later. Gen 1:24 Then God
said, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature
according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and
beast of the earth, each according to its kind”; and
it was so. Gen 1:25 And God
made the beast of the earth according to its kind,
cattle according to its kind, and everything that
creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God
saw that it was good. Gen 1:26 Then God
said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to
Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish
of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the
cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping
thing that creeps on the earth.” The winding
up of the original creation of man. Gen 2:4 This is
the history of the heavens and the earth when they
were created, in the day that the LORD God made the
earth and the heavens, Original man
was created with the Holy Spirit of power and
therefore had the knowledge of eternal life. Original
man, built ships, no doubt cities, they were well
developed in trade, notice the following verse. Psa 104:26 There the
ships sail about; There is that Leviathan Which You
have made to play there. Unfortunately,
original man did not want to obey God, they slowly
went against God. They turned to become sodomites and
lesbians. Rom 1:18 For the
wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress
the truth in unrighteousness, Rom 1:19 because
what may be known of God is manifest in them, for
God has shown it to them. Rom 1:20 For since
the creation of the world His invisible attributes
are clearly seen, being understood by the things
that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead,
so that they are without excuse, Rom 1:21 because,
although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as
God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their
thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Rom 1:22 Professing
to be wise, they became fools, Rom 1:23 and
changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an
image made like corruptible man—and birds and
four-footed animals and creeping things. Rom 1:24 Therefore
God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts
of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among
themselves, Rom 1:25 who
exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and
worshiped and served the creature rather than the
Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. Rom 1:26 For this
reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even
their women exchanged the natural use for what is
against nature. Rom 1:27 Likewise
also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman,
burned in their lust for one another, men with men
committing what is shameful, and receiving in
themselves the penalty of their error which was due. Rom 1:28 And even
as they did not like to retain God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to
do those things which are not fitting; Rom 1:29 being
filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality,
wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of
envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they
are whisperers, Rom 1:30 backbiters,
haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors
of evil things, disobedient to parents, Rom 1:31 undiscerning,
untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; Rom 1:32 who,
knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those
who practice such things are deserving of death, not
only do the same but also approve of those who
practice them. How
disappointing these events must have been to God.
Firstly, the rebellion of the sons of God and the
angels. Then the original creation of man rejected God
and His laws and degenerated into sexual deviates. God had no
choice other than to destroy these rebellious people
off the face of the earth. God then destroyed them
with a flood. Note that the flood in Noah’s time did
not destroy the earth. This verse refers to two
different floods. Noah’s flood and the flood that
destroyed the original creation and the earth. Gen 9:11 Thus I
establish My covenant with you: Never again shall
all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood;
never again shall there be a flood to destroy the
earth.” Psa 104:29 You hide
Your face, they are troubled; You take away their
breath, they die and return to their dust. ADAM
AND
EVE After
original man disobeyed God and wanted no part of Him
in their lives, they were destroyed with a flood and
then sometime later God created Adam. Remember that we
stated above that human remains have been discovered
and have been estimated to be 360,000 years old. That means
that it could have been over 350,000 years after
original man was destroyed before God created Adam. If
the reader takes the time to look at and study Genesis
Chapter 2, they will see that this is a completely
different creation then the one mentioned in Gen.
Chapter 1. This is now
the creation of Adam. Gen 2:7 And the
LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and
man became a living being. Notice the
following verse is the first mention of the garden of
Eden. There was no mention of the Garden of Eden in
the Original creation of man. Gen 2:8 The LORD
God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He
put the man whom He had formed. There is
quite a bit of time and events between when God made
Adam and when He made woman {Eve}. Gen 2:21 And the
LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he
slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up
the flesh in its place. Gen 2:22 Then the
rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made
into a woman, and He brought her to the man. Eve was only
referred to as “the woman” until just before they left
the Garden of Eden. Adam named her Eve just before God
made them clothing. Gen 3:20 And Adam
called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the
mother of all living. It wasn’t
long before Adam and the woman were tempted by the
serpent. God had instructed them not to eat of the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil. However, the
serpent lied to them and Adam and the woman were
deceived by him. In the
garden of Eden a lot more happened than just eating of
the fruit of the tree. The trees in the garden were in
fact sons of God. ‘Pleasing’ means desirable.
‘Desired’ means ‘lusted’. Eve lusted after the sons of
God, and ate of them. Adam also followed suit. Gen 3:6 So when
the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that
it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to
make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She
also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. Notice in
this scripture how the trees envied the other tree,
that is because they were sons of God not trees. Eze 31:9 I made it
beautiful with a multitude of branches, So that all
the trees of Eden envied it, That were in the garden
of God.’ In the
following scripture we see that a created covering
cherub was also in the garden and also had rebelled
against God. Eze 28:13 You were
in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was
your covering: The sardius, topaz, and diamond,
Beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and
emerald with gold. The workmanship of your timbrels
and pipes Was prepared for you on the day you were
created. Eze 28:14 “You were
the anointed cherub who covers; I established you;
You were on the holy mountain of God; You walked
back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. Eze 28:15 You were
perfect in your ways from the day you were created,
Till iniquity was found in you. Adam and Eve
were thrown out of the garden, sin had entered the
second creation of man. Once again rebellion occurred
as Adam and Eve decided to disbelieve God and follow
the advice of the serpent. No doubt the sons of God
and other rebellious beings, who were in the garden,
played a part in their decision. Adam and Eve
had children and soon the earth began to have a large
number of humans dwelling on it. The
following verses have to be read carefully. Adam had
sex with Eve, and Cain was born. Cain was ‘of that
wicked one.’ Cain was ‘from the Lord.’ Cain was of the
evil God seed {evil sons of God}, not from the good
seed created in Adam and Eve. Due to the fact that the
sons of God had sex with Adam and Eve, it was possible
for them to reproduce through mankind whenever it
suited them. Gen 4:1 Now Adam
knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain,
and said, “I have acquired a man from the LORD.” 1Jn 3:12 not as
Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his
brother. And why did he murder him? Because his
works were evil and his brother’s righteous. Corruption
was rampant on the earth, and God was sorry that He
had created man. By this time there was an influx of
sons of God who had married daughters of men as
mentioned in Gen 6 v 2. God decided
He would destroy man and all animals off the earth. But Noah
found grace in the eyes of the LORD. Notice the
following scripture Noah was perfect in his
generations. What that means is that the sons of God
had not infected his bloodlines. His bloodlines were
perfect. Therefore God could rid the earth of the
infected humans and start again with Noah. Gen 6:9 This is
the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect
in his generations. Noah walked with God. However
while the ark was being built, the sons of God had sex
with one or all of the women who were going on the
ark. 1Pe 3:19 by whom
also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, 1Pe 3:20 who
formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine
longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the
ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is,
eight souls, were saved through water. The sons of
God could not wait to ruin the plans that God had for
mankind, they are so full of hate and envy of God, His
plans, and the family that God is creating here on
earth. The result
of the disobedience of the sons of God means that
their children could and were carried on passed the
flood. The sons of God had children born to them by
one or all of the women on the ark. Look at the
example of Canaan, he sodomised Noah. Gen 9:20 And Noah
began to be a farmer, and he planted a vineyard. Gen 9:21 Then he
drank of the wine and was drunk, and became
uncovered in his tent. The above
verse means that Noah, had his clothes removed for the
purpose of sex. He was drunk and did not know what was
happening to him. Gen 9:22 And
Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his
father, and told his two brothers outside. Ham saw what
had happened to Noah and told his two brothers about
it. Gen 9:23 But Shem
and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their
shoulders, and went backward and covered the
nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned
away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness. Shem and
Japheth were very respectful of Noah and did not look
at his naked body. Gen 9:24 So Noah
awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son
had done to him. In the above
verse younger son can and should be translated as
grandson. Gen 9:25 Then he
said: “Cursed be Canaan; A servant of servants He
shall be to his brethren.” Noah cursed
Canaan, it was Canaan who had sodomised Noah, the
grandson of Noah, The sons of Noah were very
respectful towards him. Now the influence of the sons
of God had entered mankind after the flood, also the
way for them to continue to reproduce with humans was
once again available to them. People with
eyes to see will be able to read the scriptures and
understand what they mean with this new knowledge on
creation. Since Noah,
man has continued on moving away from God and going
down the path of darkness, let us look at some of the
scriptures which possibly have not been understood
before this time. The parable
of the tares. Mat 13:24 Another
parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a
man who sowed good seed in his field; Mat 13:25 but while men slept, his enemy
came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his
way. Mat 13:26 But when the grain had sprouted
and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. Mat 13:27 So the servants of the owner
came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good
seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ Mat 13:28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has
done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want
us then to go and gather them up?’ Mat 13:29 But he said, ‘No, lest while you
gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with
them. Mat 13:30 Let both grow together until the
harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to
the reapers, “First gather together the tares and
bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the
wheat into my barn.” ’ ” The parable
of the tares explained: Mat 13:36 Then Jesus
sent the multitude away and went into the house. And
His disciples came to Him, saying, “Explain to us
the parable of the tares of the field.” Mat 13:37 He
answered and said to them: “He
who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. Mat 13:38 The field is the world, the good
seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares
are the sons of the wicked one. Mat 13:39 The enemy who sowed them is the
devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the
reapers are the angels. Mat 13:40 Therefore as the tares are
gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at
the end of this age. Mat 13:41 The Son of Man will send out His
angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom
all things that offend, and those who practice
lawlessness, Mat 13:42 and will cast them into the
furnace of fire. There will be wailing and
gnashing of teeth. Mat 13:43 Then the righteous will shine
forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear! The
following scripture shows that one of the disciples
was in fact a son of God, that was Judas Iscariot. Joh 6:70 Jesus
answered them, “Did I not
choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a
devil?” Joh 6:71 He spoke
of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he
who would betray Him, being one of the twelve. Other
examples of seed of sons of God. Joh 8:44 You are of your father the
devil, and the desires of your father you want to
do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does
not stand in the truth, because there is no truth
in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his
own resources, for he is a liar and the father of
it. 1Jn 3:12 not as
Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his
brother. And why did he murder him? Because his
works were evil and his brother’s righteous. Jdg 19:22 Now as
they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men
of the city, certain sons of Belial, beset the house
round about, and beat at the door, and spake to the
master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring
forth the man that came into thine house, that we
may know him. 2Th 2:3 Let no one
deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come
unless the falling away comes first, and the man of
sin is revealed, the son of perdition, There are
people who God has called. These are special people
who want God in their lives, they want to learn about
God, they want to obey God. Some of course put in more
effort than others, let’s look at this following
parable. Mat 13:18 “Therefore hear the parable of
the sower: Mat 13:19 When anyone hears the word of
the kingdom, and does not understand it, then the
wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown
in his heart. This is he who received seed by the
wayside. Mat 13:20 But he who received the seed on
stony places, this is he who hears the word and
immediately receives it with joy; Mat 13:21 yet he has no root in himself,
but endures only for a while. For when tribulation
or persecution arises because of the word,
immediately he stumbles. Mat 13:22 Now he who received seed among
the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares
of this world and the deceitfulness of riches
choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. Mat 13:23 But he who received seed on the
good ground is he who hears the word and
understands it, who indeed bears fruit and
produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some
thirty.” Since the
Adamic creation there have been some wonderful people
who were called by God, Abraham, Moses, Noah, the
disciples and many many more. These people were
spiritual giants, loved by God and will hold very high
positions in the kingdom of God. Today, those who are
called, have the Bible to read and understand and
study. This today is the way God speaks to us, through
His written word. In times past God spoke to people in
various ways, in the case of the disciples, they were
fortunate enough to have Jesus living with them and
teaching them. Today, if we
are baptised, we have the holy Spirit living in us. If
we allow it, the Spirit will lead us and shows us the
way to live, act and think. But we must
be led by the spirit of God. Rom 8:14 For as
many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons
of God. We must
strive to overcome, grow and learn more about God
every day. Spend time with Him getting to know Him. If
we please God we will be in the kingdom with God
helping to teach people His way of life. God has been
disappointed by so many things in the past, let us not
be a disappointment to Him. Let’s show our love to God
by being vigilant to study and pray and be worthy of
the precious calling we have been given. |
