The
American
Wisdom Series
Presents Much
of the Bible is the story of God's plan to bring His Son Jesus Christ
into this world to save our souls from His necessary
destruction
because we have all sinned.
To do that He needed to preserve
one female descendant, of pure flesh and blood pedigree from the eighth
day (I
say 8th day only because it happened after the 7th day of
rest) forming of the individual man, Adam, and his wife Eve, to
eventually give human birth to His Son who would be named Jesus, who
would provide the way for all of us, His children, to salvage our soul.
Concerning the individual man, Adam; the Hebrew word translated
"man" in Genesis chapter 2 verse 7 is "'eth-ha adham", with the
article and particle ('eth-ha), and it means "this same man, Adam". It
means a specific man, not mankind in general. The creation of mankind
in general is recorded in Genesis chapter 1 verse 26; the Hebrew word
translated "man" in Genesis 1:26 is "adham", without the article and
particle. It means mankind in general; They were created on the sixth
day.
The
above notes about the original manuscripts for
Genesis chapter 1:26 and chapter 2:7 are taken from margin of The
Companion Bible. See Massorah protection of original manuscripts below.
The Massorah. (The Massorah is called "A Fence to the Scriptures" because it locked all the words and letters in their places.This Is Appendix 30 From The Companion Bible.
All the oldest and best manuscripts of the Hebrew Bible contain
on every page, beside the Text
(which is arranged in two or morecolumns), a varying number of lines of smaller writing, distributed
between the upper and lower margins. This smaller writing is called
the Massorah Magna or Great Massorah, while that in the side
margins and between the columns is called the Massorah Parva or
Small Massorah.
The illustration given below is a reduced facsimile of a Hebrew
Manuscript (16.25 x 12.375), written in a German hand, about the
year A.D. 1120.
The small writing in the margins in this particular Manuscript is
seen to occupy seven lines in the lower margin, and four lines in the
upper; while in the outer margins and between the three columns is
the Massorah Para.
The word Massorah is from the root masar, to devliver something
into the hand of another, so as to commit it to his trust. Hence the
name is given to the small writing referred to, because it contains
information necessary to those into whose trust the Sacred Text was
committed, so that they might transcribe it, and hand it down
correctly.
The Text itself had been fixed before the Massorites were put in
charge of it. This had been the work of the Sopherim (from saphar,
to count, or number). Their work, under Ezra and Nehemiah, was to
set the Text in order after the return from Babylon; and we read of it
in Nehemiah 8:8 1 (compare Ezra 7:6,11). The men of "the Great
Synagogue" completed the work. This work lasted about 110 years,
from Nehemiah to Simon the first, 410-300 B.C.
The Sopherim were the authorised revisers of the Sacred Text;
and, their work being completed, the Massorites were the authorised
custodians of it. Their work was to preserve it. The Massorah is
called "A Fence to the Scriptures," because it locked all words and
letters in their places. It does not contain notes or comments as such,
but facts and phenomena. It records the number of times the several
letters occur in the various books of the Bible; the number of words,
and the middle word; the number of verses, and the middle verse;
the number of expressions and combinations of words, etc. All this,
not from a perverted ingenuity, but for the set purpose of
safeguarding the Sacred Text, and preventing the loss or
misplacement of a single letter or word.
This Massorah is not contained in the margins of any one
Manuscript. No Manuscript contains the whole, or even the same
part. It is spread over many Manuscripts, and Dr. C.D. Ginsburg has
been the first and only scholar who has set himself to collect and
collate the whole, copying it from every available Manuscript in the
libraries of many countries. He has published it in three large folio
volumes, and only a small number of copies has been printed. These
are obtainable only by the original subscribers
When the Hebrew Text was printed, only the large type in the
columns was regarded, and small type of the Massorah was left,
unheeded, in the Manuscripts from which the Text was taken.
When translators came to the printed Hebrew Text, they were
necessarily destitute of the information contained in the Massorah;
so that the Revisers as well as the Translators of the Authorised
Version carried out their work without any idea of the treasures
contained in the Massorah; and therefore, without giving a hint of it
to their readers
This is the first time an edition of the Authorised Version has been
given containing any of these treasures of the Massorah, that affect
so seriouly the understanding of the Text. A vast number of the
Massoretic notes concern only the orthography, and matters that
pertain to the Concordance. But many of those which affect the
sense, or throw any additional light on the Sacred Text, are noted in
the margin of The Companion Bible.
Some of the important lists of words which are contained in the
Massorah are also given, videlicet, those that have the
"extraordinary points" (Appendix 31); the "eighteen emendations"
of the Sopherim (see Appendix 33); the 134 passages where they
substituted Adonai for Jehovah (see Appendix 32); and the Various
Readings called Severin (see Appendix 34). These are given in
separate Appendixes; but other words of any importance are
preserved in our marginal notes.
Readers of The Companion Bible are put in possession of
information denied to former generations of translators,
commentators, critics, and general Bible students.
For futher information on the Massorah see Dr. Ginsburg's
Introduction to the Hebrew Bible, of which only a limited edition
was printed; also a small pamphlet on The Massorah published by
King's Printers.
1 The Talmud explains that "the book" meant the original text;
"distinctly" means explaining it by giving the Chaldee paraphrase;
"gave the sense" means the division of words, etc. according to the
sense; and "caused them to understand the reading" means to give
the traditional pronuciation of the words (which were then without
vowel points).
American Wisdom Series NOTE:
This
"'eth-ha adham" (Genesis 2:7) and
"adham" (Genesis 1:26) would be the Hebrew words translated "man" in both cases as entered
in the original manuscripts as protected by the "Massorah" whereby
Ezra and Nehemiah set the text in order upon their return from
Babylon captivity.
This
would be prior to the Kenite scribes who later, after affixing
themselves to the Jews, altered texts to suit their grandfather Satan's
wishes.
The "Massorah" contains information necessary to those whose trust the
Sacred Text was committed, so that that they might transcribe it, and
hand it down correctly.
These are the people Jesus tells us about in Revelation 2:9 and 3:9.
Revelation 2:9 "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, [but thou art rich] and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan."
Revelation 3:9 "Behold, I will make them of the syna-gogue of Sa'-tan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee."
Those of the "synagogue of Satan" are the "Kenites", and they have no hold over the Philadelphia church.
If
they do exist in the Philadelphia church, they've been converted and
worship right along with the rest of the church, and love the Lord
Jesus Christ, also.
They are no longer Kenites, but sons and daughters of the living God.
The church of Philadelphia will not allow the Kenite mind of deception and confusion to take any hold in their church.
They are equal in praise with the church of Smyrna, from our Lord Jesus Christ.
Of the seven “End Time Churches” only the
Smyrna and Philadelphia churches have learned the "parable of the Fig
tree", and can identify the good figs from the bad figs,
therefore, they are the only two “End Time Churches” that Christ finds no fault
with.
The "bad figs" in the "parable of the fig tree", are the Kenites.
They are of the synagogue of Satan, "and say they are Jews, but are not".
They
don't believe in Christ's deity, His virgin birth, His resurrection,
and in fact they don't even hold God's word as inspired by God.
Remember what Jesus warned us to do in Matthew:24:32"
Matthew 24:32 "Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:"
Matthew 24:33 "So likewise ye, when ye see all these things. know that it is near, even at the doors."
The Kenites who make up a large part of that little country in the middle east, called Israel today, put forth a lot of leaves, but no fruit, i.e. they don't believe in Christ!
Matthew 24:34 "Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these thing be fulfilled.
Matthew 24:35 "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away.
Jesus commanded each of us to learn the parable of the fig tree, this was not a option, but a command.
This command was given to us who live in the latter days, while all these events are taking place.
By
knowing the events and those that are causing those things to take
place, there can be no confusion to the times and prophecies of these
times, so that you will not be deceived.
All the prophecies of the end times will take place in the life span of one generation. (ours)
The
starting point of this generation was the planting of the fig tree
shoot in Palestine, of the nation of Jews returning to their homeland. That
date is either May of 1948, when the Balfour agreement was signed at
the United Nations, establishing Israel as a Nation, or in 1967 when
the Jews took possession of Jerusalem to be their capital city. In any case, we are well into that generation.
Within
the so-called Christian churches, many Kenites are present, causing confusion, misinterpretation of God's Word,
gossip, and conflicts of all sorts, however the Philadelphia Church
does not allow it into their congregation. When it starts they deal with it immediately.
Revelation 3:10 "Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation [trial], which shall [that hour that is to] come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth."This
hour of temptation is the five months leading up to Christ's
return, while Satan will be here claiming he is God. When those
Christians of every race and nation who have the "Seal of God" in their foreheads will not bow down and worship at Satan's feet..
The
people in the Philadelphia church know the order that the two "morning
stars" will appear, and wait for the true morning star, Jesus Christ.
They
hold fast in the "hour of temptation", when most of the people of
the entire world are tried and chase after the false star, the
Antichrist.
Revelation 3:11 "Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown."
You
will have a special crown if you are able to understand God's Word, and
not bow to the Antichrist, nor take his name or his number, or his
system.
Revelation 3:12 "Him
that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he
shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and
the name of the city of my God, which is new Je-ru'-sa-lem, which
cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new
name."
The "pillar" is what supports the church, the true temple.
These pillars, are the true believers, and are what Jesus builds his Millennium kingdom around.
Once you overcome in this age, your position in Christ's kingdom is an
eternal position that God set aside just for you. You are important
where it counts, in God's kingdom.
I call "'eth-ha adham", eighth day man, only because it happened after the sixth day when God created
mankind, including the races and God's day of rest which was on the seventh day, as recorded in
Genesis chapter 1.
This forming of
this individual man, "'eth-ha adham", is recorded in Genesis chapter 2. This is not the creation of all flesh and blood mankind as
recorded in Genesis chapter 1, the Hebrew word "man" used in verse 26
is "adham", without the article and particle.
But, the story
really starts millions, even billions of years before this, when God
first created the souls of all of us, His children, as spirit beings
with celestial bodies. He then, sometime later, created the earth for
us to live on, i.e. the first earth age (the age of the dinosaurs).
Tragically 1/3 of us (our brothers) were led astray
(approximately 4 1/2 billion of us), by our very charismatic
religious leader, Lucifer who was a priest at that time. Lucifer, since
his rebellion in that first earth age, is now called Satan
SATAN'S SIN
Isaiah 14:12
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art
thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will
exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount
of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
SATAN caused 4 1/2 billion of us to side with him when he rebelled against God.Revelation 12:4 "And
his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them
to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to
be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born."
The "stars" of heaven are the "sons of God". This "old dragon"
caused one third of all of God's creation to follow him. One third of
God's children, are all those in their "soul bodies", are also called
"angelic souls". What
it is saying here, is through Satan's fall in the first earth age, he
drew one third of God's children to him. He caused them to fall, and
they worshipped him, and believed in him to be their God. That is also
his desire for this age; to cause you and me, the children of God,
to worship him.
God
did, after Lucifer/Satan rebelled destroy that earth age in His fierce
anger and sentenced Lucifer/Satan to die in "The Lake of Fire", i.e. TO
BE NO MORE!!! The death sentence to be carried out at the close of the
Millennium, after God has used Satan to test our love for "What is
Holy"(Jesus) verses "What is Profane (Satan).
God completely
destroyed that first earth age with a devastating flood i.e. "Lucifer's
Flood"; The ice age, the end of dinosaurs on earth, which happened
during the (un)recorded gap in your Bible between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2...THE BEGINNING
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was (BECAME) without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
According to the notes in the "Dake's Annotated Reference Bible" the Hebrew
word hayah in the KJV is Trans. (became) 67 times, (becamest or came to
pass) 505 times, (become) 66 times, and (come to pass) 131 times, but for
some reason in Genesis 1:2 it is translated (was)! That
sure changes the way a person perceives the original creation of the earth,
doesn't it? Gen. 1:2 And the earth
was
(became) without form, ... Having said that,
let us continue with our "Key Knowledge" lessons.
These
are pamphlets containing knowledge, we believe, you must have to fully
and accurately unlock and understand the Word of God.
(un)recorded gap in your Bible between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2 (continued) ... and Peter tell us about in 2 Peter 3:5-7. (It was a complete destruction of earth's elements,
but not of the earth itself, and is described by Jeremiah in Jeremiah
4:23-26 and also in Psalms 104)
In chapter 3 of 2nd. Peter, Peter tells us about all 3 heaven and earth ages:
1) The
world that then was, which perished, Verse

Jeremiah's Vision of the first earth age destruction
BETWEEN GENESIS 1:1 AND 1:2
Jeremiah 4:23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
26
I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the
cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his
fierce anger.
This flood is not to be confused with
"Noah's Flood" which happened later.
Lucifer's Flood
Psalms 104:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty.
2 Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
3
Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the
clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.
6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.
WATERS OF THE FIRST FLOOD (LUCIFER'S FLOOD) FLED AWAY AT THE LORD REUKE (Not to be confused with Noah's Flood where the waters receded over many months.)
Psalms 104:7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.
8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.
9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
Let's compare Lucifer's Flood to Noah's Flood

Ps.104:9
Gen.1:6-12, 8:2
God did choose not to
sentence those 4 1/2 billion of us who followed Lucifer/Satan during his rebellion, to death at that time. Instead He devised this plan whereby
our souls might still be salvaged. He restructured the earth and
decided to place us all back on it; But this time He would place us
here, one at a time, in our turn, in the order of His choosing, without
memory of our previous existence, in animal type (Terrestrial) bodies.
His plan is to save many of our souls from spiritual death, WHICH ALSO
IS TO BE NO MORE; The same punishment as Satan will receive. God's hope is that by the example of our witnessing the permanence of the
physical death of our loved ones who we can then no longer communicate
with will teach each us a lesson about the permanence of death and we
will therefore, see the reason why we should be anxious to accept His
offer of salvation by His grace during this earth age. (Physical death
is only the shadow of the real death. Real death being the destruction
of our soul!!! The death of our soul is what we need to prevent, and our faith in Christ can accomplish.)
The purpose of this eighth day forming of
"'eth-ha
adham" and his help meet Eve were to produce a female descendant of pure pedigree to give
flesh and blood life (birth) to His only begotten Son Jesus the Christ
who, then, being both "man" and "God", would, therefore qualify, through His
shed blood on the cross, to become the savior of the world (the savior
of the soul of, us, if we will only accept His Son Jesus, by faith, and
claim His shed blood to cover our sins; If we will only have faith to
believe in Him and invite Him into our heart to change it to become
perfect, like Him).
God did, with His creation of mankind, as
described in Genesis chapter 1 (day 6), start placing the soul of each
of us back here on earth born to a flesh and blood women. That part of
the story is now history; It has been accomplished; Jesus was born to a
pure eighth day formed man, "'eth-ha adham" and his also formed wife
Eve who are ancestors of the virgin, Mary who was born of pure "'eth-ha
adham" pedigree. Although it did require that God flood that part
of the world again (Noah's Flood in the middle east) in this second
earth age when only eight souls still remained, from this eighth day
forming of Adam and Eve, who were of pure pedigree. (those 8 being Noah and his
family)
NOAH'S FAMILY STAYED AWAY FROM AND DID NOT SEXUALLY MIX WITH THESE FALLEN ANGELS 8
But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and
perfect in his generations (had a pure Adam and Eve pedigree), and Noah walked with God.
Jude 4 "For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ."
They were "before of old ordained to condemnation", that means they committed to their ways even back in the first earth age. They came from that first earth age, and they entered this world age of the flesh to change the very words of Christ. The Word of God is eternal, unchanging from age to age, and these "certain men" that crept in unawares, are the fallen angels. This
is addressing Satan's little followers, that came to earth on a mission
for Satan, to disrupt the order of events which are and will come to
pass according to the Word of God. These men are the "Sons of God" that we read of in Genesis 6, that came to earth to take in marriage the daughters of Adamic men.
Genesis 6:1 "And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,"
Genesis 6:2 "That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose."
The men that were multiplying were Adamic men in the flesh. The "sons of God" who came down to earth and married these daughters were the fallen angels of Satan. When they took the daughters of Adam, their intent was to pervert the plan of God. For
it was promised that it would be through the woman, Eve, that the
Messiah would come to smash the head of the serpent, who is Satan.
Live Link to- Angels impregnating Adam's daughters
Live Link to- These
sons of God, i.e. angels, i.e. our brothers, didn't wait their turn to
be born in the flesh and came to earth impregnating daughters of flesh
and blood men.
Live Link to- Yes, there were giants in the earth in those days (Gen 6:4)
Genesis 3:15 "And I [God] will put enmity between thee [Satan] and the woman [Eve], and between thy seed [the Kenites] and her seed [Jesus Christ]; It [Jesus Christ] shall bruise thy [Satan's] head, and thou [Satan] shalt bruise His [Christ's] heel."
This is the first promise that God made, after Eve sinned and brought Adam into the sin act also. It is the promise from God that Satan would be defeated at the cross of Christ. Eve's seed is our Lord Jesus Christ, while Satan's seed are the children of Cain [the Kenites], even to the last generation, that came from that sexual union between Eve and Satan, who is called the serpent after the role of deceiver that he played. Satan is called both the "serpent" and "the tree of the knowledge of good and evil", and God is telling us that He will put trouble between Eve's children [through Adam and Seth] and the children of Cain, the son of Satan through this sexual union between Eve and Satan.
Live Link to- What happened in the garden
There can be no doubt that the seed mentioned here are children, for in the Hebrew text the "seed" is called "zirmah", and the Greek is "sperma". In the English "zirmah" is called "sperm".
The Strong's Hebrew Dictionary #2233 "posterity, carnally, child
fruitful". We are talking about the birth of babies that grow into
mature adults. Yet to defend their false doctrine, many [including Christian churches] try to spiritualize away what happened in the "garden of Eden" between two men and a woman. They create fairy-tales about apples to hide the true meaning of God's holy Word. It is no wonder the Christian community is so biblically illiterate when their churches refuse teach the truth.
The two men were Satan and Adam, and the woman was Eve. From this orgy came Cain, the son of Satan, and Abel, the son of Adam [paternal twins]. Cain murdered Abel and became the first murderer, and thus the Adamic blood line did not come through Abel but through Seth. Abel had no children. The other races of mankind did not come through Seth, but were created years prior to Adam, as recorded in Genesis 1:27-29, they were the sixth day creation, and therefore; not through Adam and Eve, who were created on the eighth day, [which is recorded in Genesis 2:7-3:24], The promised Messiah would come from the man, Adam, and his wife Eve through a virgin descendant; who was to be perfect in her generations. [not mixed with any other blood line]
The
eighth day women were under attack because it would be through Adamic
woman that Jesus Christ the Messiah would come, and that is why not
only Satan, but also his fallen angels would also continue to attack
them. This is why the saying, "Eve the mother of all living" in Genesis 3:20. Through
Eve came Christ in a future generation, and if you do not have Christ,
you do not have spiritual life, which can only come through Him.
These fallen angels, which are the men that crept in unawares, are perverts even from the first earth age [the world age that then was],
and because they followed Satan, God sentenced them to death along with
Satan after the millennium. All of these fallen angels will be coming
back very shortly when Michael casts Satan out of heaven, upon the
earth for the great tribulation, also called the great deception. These
fallen angels are spoken of in Revelations 11:13, when seven thousand
of them will be killed in the streets of Jerusalem when the seventh
trumpet is sounded and Christ returns.
God
is fair in all things, but these angels received condemnation because
they would not listen to God's instructions, and they still follow
Satan and are trying to make void the Word of God. They
are our brothers from the first earth age, who left their first estate.
Did not wait their turn to come to earth and be born of water, like God
commanded. We are not speaking of evil spirits here, but actual angels, "nephilim" fallen angels.
Jude 5 "I
will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how
that the Lord, having saved the People out of the land of Egypt,
afterward destroyed them that believed not."
Jude is telling us that he wants to write and warn us about all this cotton candy type Christianity that has turned into nothing but tradition and fairy-tales, but he couldn't do that without warning you again about the fallen angels. Jude is saying that if in this earth age people follow those fallen angels they will lead them to Satan.
God is going to destroy them again just as he did His people after they
left Egypt, that followed them. God wiped out an entire generation in
the wilderness because of their foolishness and idolatry.
We are being forewarned about the results of messing around with the fallen angels. When
in ignorance Christians chase after Satan, the false-christ thinking he
is the True Christ, there will be no grace offered to them, yet some will still be saved out of the Millennium age, but it will be by their works only during the Millennium, for grace, by faith, is not offered in the Millennium age, because we will have Christ with us then, and all souls will have full understandging. Jude is telling you to remember this.
Jude 6 "And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, He hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day."
The only habitation for any angel is heaven, and in defiance of God they left heaven and came to this earth. "Habitation" in the Greek tongue is "Oiketerion, oy-kay-tey-ree-on, a place of residence." Jude
is reminding us that common, simple salvation is beautiful, and is the
first step; however, you must keep in mind all the other things that
have happened because those things will happen again. The
coming of Satan and his fallen angels will happen again near the end of
this earth age, just as it happened both before and again after Noah's
flood, and my fellow Christian, you are living in the final generation.
[We are over sixty five years into the planting of the Fig Tree.]
Note: Jesus
said learn "The Parable of the Fig Tree" if you want to know when
the end will be. He said the end will come during the generation of the
Fig Tree,
Live Link to- "The Parable of the Fig Tree"
All other souls in that part of the world, even
descendants of "'eth-ha adham", were contaminated by the sexual union
with and having children to Satan's fellow fallen angels (another of
Satan's attempts to ruin the pure pedigree of descendants of
"'eth-ha adham") and prevent God's plan to bring His Son into the world
born to a descendant of pure pedigree.
Satan's fallen angel's (who came
to earth directly, bypassing the womb of woman), and Eve's daughter's hybrid offspring needed to be destroyed to protect that
pure eighth day creation pedigree.
Now for the second part of
the story.
While all of this re-population of the earth is taking
place God has had Satan locked up in heaven ever since he seduced Eve
in the Garden of Eden, when she bore Cain, the father of the Kenites,
(Satan's first attempt to contaminate the "'eth-ha adham" line of
humans). Satan is not allowed to come to earth in person right
now, although he can still influence us spiritually.
God will in
the very near future allow Satan to return to earth again, in person
(passing himself off as, and claiming to be be Jesus), five months
prior to the return of the real Jesus Christ, which will shortly happen
and will end this flesh and blood second earth age.
God is using
Satan to test those souls of all self-proclaiming Christians, to see
if they really have faith in Jesus and have learned to tell the
difference between, what is holy (Jesus) and what is profane (Satan)
before granting any souls eternal life when this earth age ends,
based on their faith and trust in Jesus. This is "The First
Resurrection to Eternal Life" or if not granted then, another
opportunity, during "The Millennium" when we will all, both the saved
and those still liable to die (the death of our soul), be reborn back
into their celestial bodies (you might call it 1000 years of
summer school, 1000 years which will include special instruction and
discipline by Jesus and those of us who have already been granted
eternal life i.e. God's Elect ).
After "The MILLENNIUM", those not
already saved, at Christ's return, will be judged at the "Great
White Throne of Judgment" based
on their works during those 1000 years.
If found worthy they also will be granted eternal life. Still saved by
the shed blood of Christ, but by their works; No longer by faith
because Christ will be here and visible to all. This will be "The
Second Resurrection" to eternal life.
After "The MILLENNIUM"Revelation 20:12"And
I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were
opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the
dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books,
according to their works."
Notice there are two sets of books here. The first called "The Books" is to judge the unsaved. The second is the "Book of Life"
where only the names of the saved are recorded. The saved have had
their sins removed from God's judgment and blotted out. Though they
were committed, the blood of Christ has covered them from being used
against us.
Notice how all these souls will be judged "according to their works". Does it talk about faith here after the Millennium? No. The "great white throne judgment" will not take faith into consideration. The first resurrection takes faith into consideration. That was back on "the Lord's day". That was Jesus Christ's "great day". On the last day of the Millennium age, souls who were not part of "The first Resurrection" (which took place on the first day of the Millennium) are judged by works only.
Why are you judged for works only? Faith is something hoped for but unseen. You
don't see Jesus Christ on earth today, you will see His wonderful
works, and be led by Him and His Spirit in the Millennium age. Today He
is in heaven and not walking on this earth. However, in the Millennium, He will be here on earth, and all will have full intelligence, with full recall of the first earth age restored and will be taught discipline. The
Heavenly Father honors all those with grace, that have accepted His Son
by faith through repentance without Christ's physical presence here on
earth during this earth age, if they believed in His Word.
To those who are not under grace in the Millennium, their salvation will be only through and by their works. It will still be covered by Christ's shed blood at the cross; But not by faith because Christ will now be here with us. There will be no ignorance, and or physical handicap, for you will see, know, and experience Our Lord first hand.
If
they follow the Antichrist, the first Christ to appear, before our real
Christ's return they will have forfeited their salvation in this earth
age. They will not be under the grace of God, and their works will be the only
thing that matters on the last day of the Millennium, the day of
judgment. They will be judged by works alone, for they have seen Jesus Christ, and are then without excuse.
Special Note: The
"rapture theory" leaves believers defenseless against Satan, for they
will be taken in by Satan's deception, when he claims he is the Christ. Thinking he has come to rapture them out of here and save their little old physical bodies, which in five months will be rotting and useless, anyway! Why? Because when Christ actually returns, we will all be changed!
We'll all be changed at Christ's return. Ref. Scripture 1 Cor. 15:51-57
We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body
1 Corinthians 15:51 ¶Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
When? Are you all sealed? Good, we're ready for the 7 Trumpet.
At the last trump!
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this
mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the
saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. See pamphlet #4000 for more info on mortality/immortality and natural/spiritual bodies and corruptibility/incorruptibility.
Revelation 20:13 "And
the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered
up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man
according to their works."
The
sea is the massive number of mortal souls that follow Satan. These are
those souls who did not overcome, There it is again! "According to their works."
They did not endure untill the end! They were among the first taken from the field. See Live Link to->>> Endure until the end
See Live Link to->>> The Walking Dead
See Live Link to->>> The Great White Throne of Judgment
Don't
be frightened by this! For we are now under grace, and the Antichrist
has not yet arrived. You are going to face the truth now, or be judged by your works from the thousand year Millennium age.
Eternity is a long time, so much so that our minds simply cannot comprehend it.
Or if they are still found not
worthy, sentenced to eternal death in "The Lake of Fire". (The death of
their soul, to perish just like Satan's soul will perish, and BE NO
MORE!) God, in the Bible, calls this the second death!
Read
and study your Bible! YOU NEED TO KNOW THESE THINGS!!!; THIS
STORY WHICH GOD TOLD US ALL ABOUT THROUGH HIS PROPHETS and had recorded
for our study and understanding in both TESTAMENTS, THE OLD and THE
NEW!
The time frame when this will all happen and the details
about the two resurrections to eternal life and "The Great White Throne of Judgment" and the basis for those decisions!
To study the Bible is the
noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the
guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
