God's "Will" for the World and YouNovember 1, 2006
Article By: Tom Demeter Understanding God's Plan Dear Friend, Unless you understand God’s
purpose and plan for humanity, you can’t understand God’s “will” for
the world and for you specifically. Christians
believe that they know God’s purpose and plan for us, yet Christ’s
definition of His religion tells us that they don’t!
Christianity is the biggest religion of the world, about twice as big as
the next that is Islam. Christ’s
defined His religion for this age or “dispensation” Eph.1:10 as small,
for to know “the way” to
eternal life is given in this age to a
“few”
only Mat.17:14, to the “many” of
humanity and the angel kind it is not given Mat.7:13.
A person’s, a nation’s or the
world’s identity is based on believes
or religion. This truth will be clearer progressively to all of us, as we
come to the End of the World.
If you ignore this fact you will be its victim.
Our laws, money, politics, government, commerce, society and civilization
are all based on “beliefs,” and its corresponding God.
Those who “believe” that God does not exist, also base their lives on
beliefs. This issue for Christians boils
down to the enigma, what Eve had to solve in the Garden of Eden.
Can Christians believe our Creator Eph.3:9, who said that if we “SIN”
(disobey God’s laws or instructions IJn.4:3) we “die” Rom.6:23.
We can also believe the Serpent, the Anti-god, who
“deceived” Eve by saying
that if you sin, (eat from the fruit when God told you not to do it,)
“you shall not
die” Gen.3:4, but
“be as gods knowing good and evil”
V.5, and by assumption will
be like God and find eternal life. Christianity
and all the religions of the world follow Eve, and “believe” that when you “sin,” disobey God, you
don’t die, but your eyes will be “opened,”
to know what is “good and evil,”
as the serpent, the Anti-god said. Eve
and Adam proved the serpent “truthful”
and right, and God a “liar,”
by experience. This
is why Christianity and ALL
other religions believe the “immortality of the
soul” doctrine, which say that when you DIE, you
DO NOT DIE,
but go to heaven and have a spiritual existence.
In essence the difference between the Creator’s
SALVATION
to gain eternal life, and the Anti-god’s is rapped up in the issue or
doctrine concerning DEATH!
This is why Christianity of the “many”
claim that Jesus ONLY
had to die for our sins, to pay the
“penalty” for our sins.
This is why we don’t die at death, but
“pass on” to our eternal
existence, from our physical one. Jesus
came to correct Satan’s “deception,”
and to “reveal”
God’s true plan of salvation, which was not given in the Old Testament.
Salvation is only through
Jesus, our Christ!
There is no other religion, church or belief or person or savior by which
we can be “saved” or gain eternal life Acts.4:12! Christ and His word tells us that if we SIN we DIE! Adam and Eve died the same day they sinned! It was “revealed” four thousand yeas later that God counts one day as a thousand years 2Pet.3:8. Adam lived 930 years and died Gen.5:5, as God PURPOSED, pre-ordained it for all of us. We were “appointed to death” by our Creator ICor.4:9, that we may gain eternal life through death. We or the angels were NOT made “eternal,” but “carnal,” temporary to die Gen.3:19. This is why we see in the Old Testament that “the soul that sins, it shall die” Ezek.18:4. The New Testament conforms by saying: “the wages of sin is ‘death’ “ Rom.6:23, not life in heaven. We are told that death is a “sleep,” an unconscious state, when we “know not a thing” Ecc.9:5; IThes.4:13-15. This is why Jesus was the “first born FROM the dead” Col.1:18, and Lazarus was “sleeping” or DEAD Jn.8:53. Paul confirmed that ONLY Jesus “has immortality” ITim.6:16, for no other has been “resurrected” FROM death ICor.15:52, to “ascend (rise) up to heaven” as a being but Jesus Jn.3:13! All the righteous are dead waiting for their resurrection, which will take place at Chris’s second coming ICor.15:52; IThes.4:17. If DEATH is not real, than we don’t need to be “resurrected!” We don’t need to be SAVED! and we don’t understand why Jesus had to DIE, and be resurrected! How is God's Plan and "Will" ExecutedA
true Christian must “prove what is that good, and acceptable, and
perfect WILL
of God” Rom.12:2.
After Christ our Creator Eph.3:9 has “called” you Jn.6:44, you must
prove God’s words in your life. A
true Christian must know and believe that God’s
WILL for
us is
to DIE, that
through death we may find eternal life Mat.16:25.
This is the whole reason why God created
“evil” and
“death” for us Isa.45:7.
If you understand God’s “mystery,”
given to Apostle Paul Eph.3:3, God’s true operation of salvation
Col.2:12, you know that God’s
true “knowledge of SALVATION”
Lk.1:77 is based on our “alienation”
and “reconciliation” from Him Col.1:21,
20 and to Him through Jesus our Christ! “God’s
way” and the “Anti-god’s way” are
OPPOSITE! God’s way
is the way of “life,” and the Anti-god’s way is the way of “death” Jer.21:8.
Why? For Jesus our Creator
said: “ I AM
the TRUTH” Jn.14:5, while
the “god of this world” 2Cor.4:4, ruling the world in the place of Christ
has “NO TRUTH in
him” Jn.8:44.
This is why “we can’t
serve two masters” Mat.6:24.
This is why Christians can’t serve or do things the “world’s
way,” because they are the opposite
of the way of God. If we
“obey,” or serve the world, we become sinners and idolaters, for
“his servants you are whom you obey”
Rom.6:16. This
is why Christianity is based on us willing to
LOSE our lives to
FIND eternal life Mat.16:25.
We must be willing to “sacrifice”
our lives as Christians, instead trying to
“save” our lives, as we learn in our Christian churches. This
is how the “gospel” of Christianity and of Christ’s are opposites.
This is why we must “come
out” of Christianity and the world not to be idolaters
Rev.18:4. We were
made “carnal”
to become
“spiritual” through
CONFLICT!
This demands from Christians to “endure”
our sacrifices Mat.24:13, and even “death”
in this conflict. The
Christians’ aim is to save you FROM
conflicts, sacrifices and death, while the Creator demands it.
Christians are a “living sacrifice” to God, like Paul was, who said:
“I am crucified with Christ, yet I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me:
and the life I live in the flesh I
live by
the faith
of the
Son of God” Gal.2:20.
This is a continually increasing sacrifice, as we
“grow in grace and knowledge”
2Pet.3:18, until we become
“perfect in God’s love” Mat.5:48;
IJn.4:18. God
to create this conflict is using Satan, to be the Anti-god, holding up the
“evil” side
of the His system based on “good and evil,” where our Creator is holding up
the “good”
side Gen.3:4. Satan and his
angels, and our human nature, our “spirit of man” ICor.2:11 are working
against the “many”
of humanity. to stay and become more and more
“carnal,” until
our “sins are full,”
like the Amorites’ Gen.15:15. When
our “sins are full” Satan must “kill
and destroy” us Jn.10:10.
Jesus and His angels are working with the
“few,” who
have God’s “holy spirit,” or
one of the spirits of God’s seven angelic churches Rev.2 and 3 to help us
become “spiritual” and to become “perfect” in God’s sacrificial love
Jn.15:13, that we may qualify to be in the resurrection to eternal life. This
is why you see through out history that a society starts out free, good,
obedient to God’s laws, money system and religion, and as it becomes more and
more “successful” or
carnal, fall away from God’s blessings, freedom and prosperity
religion, until they are destroyed by supernatural events, war, pestilence and
moral corruption. Humanity
can’t learn
from history,
because it lacks God’s “holy spirit” which would allow it to do it.
We are locked
into failure, destruction and
death! This is why “knowledge is
easy to them who have understanding” Prov.14:6.
Satan
the serpent, by “deceiving” the whole world Rev.12:9 controls us, and keep
us in bondage. Humanity by
believing that we don’t need to be
AFRAID of
DEATH, and the consequences
of “sin,” set themselves
to get an advantage by disobeying God’s
LAWS to become
successful, and by it cause their destruction!
Once God’s “laws”
are eliminated and God’s “money”
there is no standard for righteousness, and
“confusion” rains
Dan.9:7,8 bringing moral corruption, violence, war and every “curses
of God” Deut.28 which brings the downfall of that society. We
are now at the “End of the World” and we see this very clearly.
We are living at the time when these conflicts will be very open, not
hidden. All the “truth”
and the “errors”
will be revealed Mat.10:26, that we may learn by experience. We were deceived by experience and we learn the truth the
same way. God's Plan and "Will" for ChristiansYou
might think it strange that God’s
“will” for us is
to “sacrifice and
die,” when
we are taught in our churches that God loves us, and we only need to “believe” in
Him and we will be saved Jn.3:16. Knowing
God’s “mystery” given to Apostle Paul, you have a more advance,
accurate knowledge of God’s true salvation Lk.1:77, not the partial
one given to the Twelve Apostles. After
Paul died, Apostle John accepted
“Paul’s gospel” Rom.2:16, and defined God’s character for
us, by saying that “God
is love” IJn.4:8.
He loves every one of us. God
is not a “respecter of persons” to love one, or the
“few” more than the
“many” Acts.10:34.
God is like our human dad, who loves all his children.
God has a family and children born into the family in progressive
order ICor.15:23. God’s
family is a kingdom, and we “born” into it at our “resurrection,” when
we change from this carnal, temporary body to our eternal body
ICor.15:52, not when we are baptized,
as the churches teach. When
we are baptized, we only “begotten”
by God’s “holy
spirit” ICor.4:15 that we, like a human child may grow up in the
“knowledge of God,” to
become “perfect”
Mat.5:48 in His character of
“sacrificial love” Jn.15:13, to be “resurrected”
into eternal life. You
can’t gain God’s sacrificial love unless you are willing to
sacrifice, and the ultimate sacrifice is
DEATH! Without
DEATH there
is no salvation. The practical
application of
this truth
is that if
we want to do God’s will,
we must go against our carnal self, our family, society or the
“kingdom of this world”
and its “god.”
God’s will for us, and our aim in life will be not to
SAVE it,
or to
“get ahead in life,”
but to LOSE
it to “find”
eternal life Mat.16:25. God
will not ask you, how many you have
“converted,” or
souls you have won, but how much you were willing to give up, lose your
life to be more righteous and holy.
The “higher”
in God’s government you want to be, the
“lower” you have
to be in this world, like the Apostles, who were
“made as the filth of the world, and off scouring of all
things” ICor.4:13. You
are asked to obey God’s LAWS
and to use His MONEY and to “live
by FAITH”
Rom.1:17, not by the Anti-god’s
lawlessness or “codes,”
and “credit”
system without money,
and by “insurance” or
limited liability. You must
at least use Satan’s system in a way it is
“acceptable” to
God. We are now in a
situation that you can’t live without using Satan’s system.
As you grow in God’s way of salvation, the less you will be in
the world, until you will have to
“FLEE”
from the world Rev.12:6, or to give up your life as a martyr for
Christ. The showdown
between God’s kingdom and Satan’s kingdom will be deadly, that you
may show to your Creator whom you are willing to obey Rom.6:16! As
the world will compromise and fall away more and more from God, morally
and every other way, you will shine more and more as righteous in this
darkened world. For this
you will be more and more persecuted also, unless you are willing to
“obey” your Creator. We are told that the whole Bible is written to us,
“upon whom the ends of the world are come”
ICor.10:11. God
promised that He is faithful, and will
“not suffer you to be tempted (tried) above that you are able;
and will with the temptation (trial) also
make a
way to escape,
that you may be able to bear it”
ICor.10:13. The show
down will
be “deadly”
because God requires that you overcome your
“fear of death” Heb.2:15, for “fear”
has “torment,
and he that FEARS
are not ‘made
perfect in love’ “ IJn.4:18, and can’t be in the resurrection, but
will be in the “second
death” Rev.21:8 or
eternal death Mat.10:28. If God has “called” you Jn.6:44, which is a great honor to be one of the “few” in this dispensation or age of God, you are required to fulfill certain “requirements” to become a student, “disciple” of Christ. You can read the qualifications in Lk.14:26,27,33. God’s “WILL” for you is to establish His Kingdom’s Embassies that “God’s ‘will’ be done on earth as it is in heaven” Mat.6:10. God rules the world using Satan, to hold up the “evil.” God is using YOU, a Christian, who follows His “first begotten son” Heb. 1:6 on the earth, to hold up the “good” on the earth, as a “witness of God” and good Acts.10:41. You have to witness the good, that people may see the difference between “good and evil” that God’s system could work. God is using you, to witness now and later when he will judge all humans and angels to aid them in their process of death, His process of true salvation. Those who live now will able to help those who lived before this time all through human history. If you don’t do God’s will who will do it? God's "Will" for You is to Preach the "Gospel of Faith"God promised to warn the world when He intervenes in world events. “Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but He revealeth His SECRET to His servants the prophets” Amos.3:7. Now at the End of the World God will change the rulership of the Anti-god, Satan the Devil and his angels over humanity, with the reign of Christ and his saints over humanity and the angel kinds. This is when Christ will start the angel kind's waited “reconciliation” 2Cor.5:18. Jesus the “son of man” gave His new “gospel of faith” to His Twelve Apostles and Israel first, and through them to the Gentiles. Jesus’ followers were asked to “live by faith” Rom.1:17, like the “fowls of the air” Mat.6:26, and the “lilies of the field” V.28. Christians were asked to let God supply their daily need. This gospel was based on a “higher,” more advanced “laws of faith” Rom. 3:27, where “whatsoever is not of faith is sin” Rom15:23, is not yet heard or known in the world.Jesus foretold that “This gospel (of faith) of the kingdom ( based on the laws of faith) SHALL be preached in ALL the world for a ‘witness’ and then shall the End (of the world) come” Mat.24:14. There are many “gospels” preached, aimed to “save” people, instead asking them to “sacrifice” themselves. God now “restored” for us, His gospel of faith as it was promised Mat.17:11, by God’s First Witness of His “Two Witnesses” Rev.11:3. God will also “restore” the Old Testament religion, given to Israel by God’s Second Witness of His “Two Witnesses,” because it was also corrupted, as it was pre-ordained by God’s will.The preaching the “gospel of faith” of the New Testament, and the “gospel of flesh,” based on the old “laws of flesh” or sin Rom.7:23,25 of the Old Testament is God’s “work” at the End of the World Acts.13:41. Since these gospels are given to the “few” in this age Mat.7:14, the world's majority, the “many” will not be able to respond to it. They can’t respond because God will not pour out His “holy spirit” on all people just yet Acts.3:19 but only on a few. God is not “reconciliating” all His children at one time, but through out the “ages to come” Eph.2:7.The
“few” who are “chosen” must sound the
MIDNIGHT CRY of the Beast and of Christ’s second coming Mat.25:6, and
warn the nations of the End of the Worlds coming Mat.24:3, which will be more
devastating than the flood in Noah’s day Mat.24:37. This
“gospel of faith” is a difficult spiritual message, because you will
not receive “rewards”
in this world, and this life, but in the world to come, when Jesus comes
again Mat.16:27. This is why for
those who are not called and have not received God’s “holy spirit,” to
stand up for the truth, and to sacrifice for it is just plain “foolishness”
to the un-converted ICor.2:14. You
have to have faith to “believe” that Jesus is “the rewarder of them that
diligently seek Him” Heb.11:6. In the world we will face tribulations,
difficulties and DEATH,
but through voluntary death we gain eternal life.
This is the hard and difficult way of Christ, to find eternal life.
We have to have spiritual strength to “endure” our trials to the end
of the world Mat.24:13. You are not
going to be given mighty power like in the
Old Testament, but “little
strength” Rev.3:8
that you may “endure”
your suffering as a “testimony” for those who are not yet called,
that when they will be called they may remember you, as we remember the saints
of old, giving them to whom we testified strength to endure their afflictions. Since
we live at the End of the World, the most difficult time of all human history
Mat.24:21, we are given also the greatest “rewards”
in Christ’s coming kingdoms. As
you know Christ has three kingdoms. One
is going to be on the “restored” and re-created world for human beings. Second, the Kingdom of Heaven will be for the resurrected
saints, who will be in a “better resurrection”
Heb.11:35, ruling from heaven over the people of the world, like
Satan’s angels ruling over the governments of the world now. God’s third kingdom is the Kingdom of the
“Godhead” or God family
Acts.17:29; Rom.1:20. I
ask you to know God’s will and to apply it in your life to love others to gain
eternal life. In the reality of Christ's eternal love, your friend and brother, |
