OUR LORD GOD AND SAVIOUR - PART 26

In spite of the obstacles, the New Testament made its grand entrance, standing in opposition to those who might present a different gospel. The Word of God that was in the beginning with God, and indeed, the very same Word that was in the world brought forth all that is seen and unseen. Jesus' words that were spoken on earth are the same words that were with God in the beginning. This Word is not another person. It is God’s own words proceeding from God's Spirit voice that continues to emanate from His throne. The voice of God who is Spirit and the one God who fills all things.

One cannot hide from God. He knows exactly where you are. Indeed, God has no language barrier to contend with. Remember too that God curtailed man's steps by doing something no one could have possibly thought could happen. At the tower of Babel, God did the opposite to the thinking of astronaut Neil Armstrong, who said, "One small step for man, one large step for mankind." Well, similar conditions existed at the tower of Babel, when man said let us build a tower that reaches to the heavens. God took a small step and man took a great reverse step backwards.

The comparison to the world today can be likened to the same time frame as the tower of Babel. We may, once again say that since the earth is of one speech that we should build us a tower that reaches into the Heavens. God intervened before. Maybe God will intervene once again. Satan has always desired ascending into the heavens out of which he had been cast. But the scriptures state that these days will be shortened for the elects sake. If these days were not to be shortened, there would be no flesh saved.

In terms of Biblical prophecy, the moon has already been turned into blood when man stepped onto its surface. God has a time table. Beyond His plan of salvation for mankind, He also has an agenda which will surely be fulfilled. I think we ought to remember what the scripture advises. This we will do only if God permits. You may want to go to Heaven too. Surely, as God is God. believers will go to heaven. The scriptures state that we will just be gone, caught up in the twinkling of an eye. This is the language of the scriptures.

Like Phillip, when he was taken by God’s spirit from a revival meeting in Samaria and planted in a desert place. God's business is to seek and to save those who are lost. Throughout the scriptures, Jesus declared that He must be about His Father’s business. In fact, the Father's business was to redeem man from the house of bondage. The only way that this would be accomplished was by God himself coming from Heaven to earth. Salvation does not come as a consequence of people on earth cruising the Heavens. Satan, as the god of this world system, promises that if you will only fall down and worship him, he will give you the sun, moon and stars. Unfortunately, man falls for it.

The problem is that satan is a liar. He is the father of liar because neither the sun, moon or stars are his to give. God’s promises are yea and amen because He is faithful. God is faithful. God knows that we are incapable of accomplishing the mission that He commissioned us to do. He by Himself accomplished His mission, which was, to onlookers an impossible mission. He being housed in a generational sinful body, tempted and tried by every demon in hell who had lodged themselves into Adams fallen race brought us salvation, if only we would accept Jesus.

Adam’s race was completely unaware of the plan of salvation because they thought they knew God. Talk about being on the wrong wave length. Jesus is the unseen God. Jesus is the very same God that walked on earth, displaying the one true God. For indeed, as stated in the scriptures, He is the one true God appearing as a son. We by ourselves could not without God’s spiritual power inwardly dwelling, finish the mission on our own. But now that the Spirit of Jesus fills us, we will run this race bringing mankind to Heaven. For greater is He who now dwells within us than he that is in the world.

Stand in the offering plate. Peace to all who are in Jesus.
