Last Segment-6

18 But I say, surely they have never heard, have they? Indeed they have;

“Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the [b]world.”

 (Romans 10:17)

A revelation occurred when the wife of the man took the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. There was no convincing the woman otherwise, it was either believe the deception of the serpent or remain in perfect harmony with God. That deception is still occurring today…the words of that serpent are still in the ears of this world. People often question why a follower of Christ imposes their belief on this world, or are annoyed at the concern that someone is going to Hell. The reason for that concern is the revelation of Eve—a repercussion.

At the time of the first man and woman before their deception, everything existed in perfect harmony with God. But at their deception something just didn’t seem to add up. Because the consequence by their disobedience was to die. And they didn’t die but seemed to have…upgraded, “behold the man has become like one of Us knowing good and evil;…”. What? So…they become like God, or as…gods?

Hold up. Let’s go back one verse, verse 21 of Genesis 3. How did God make garments of skin for Adam and his wife Eve, to clothe them? Did something need to die? Reader, you and I both know that we are alive to eventually die, but what is death? Death is our flesh of sin that we live in. We inherited it from the skin of Adam and Eve. But this skin is different from flesh, it was given as a covering of grace, because we shouldn’t exist. We are not worthy to exist unless God is our reason for…Love. To love someone is to willingly die for them.

We inherited a seed of life from this death we live because of the Love of God. There is only one worthy to die that we might live, and that one, my dear reader, is the Son of God…Jesus! No one, nothing proves worthy of salvation for creation other than the innocence of God. That is the only way to transfer innocence. That an innocent one die for the guilty one. The sin of man and woman attempts to justify their wrong. Whereas love understands to tell the truth. The revelation of Eve is in her seed (Genesis 3:15). That seed, was the seed of God by way of the Holy Spirit of God. Jesus Christ is that seed born innocent by the virgin Mary. Because he was not born of the seed of Adam…which is to inherit sin.

God took the blame of our sin. Jesus remained silent when acused falsely, although innocent, He took the blame because it was decided by God before the beginning. That was the mystery. God decided how He would save us before we decided to break His command. That is the revelation of Eve—the revelation of creation is the innocent body and blood of Jesus, as the perfect Word of God for reconciliation to God. It is by grace through faith in the resurrection of Jesus from the dead by the power of God that a believer is saved. He is preparing a place for those that are saved, right now.

…the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven… (Colossians 1:23)

Juneteenth Freedom Day or Emancipation Day for Zero Tolerance

Leave a comment

America,

You have no need to become educated by what this day represents. In celebration and concern to commemorate today, I write this post. Have you heard the news? Look and see! Slaves are free! Here you go, let it be!

It infuriates me to learn about such injustices of our history, prompting so many questions that quickly induce an emotional high on the subject. It’s ironic that today, in our news, we are faced with evolved injustices as result of those previous. An example is given by how we are treating people at the border of Mexico and the U.S. that prompts more questions evident by widespread uproar. I will not dishonor our president in obedient practice of what is learned through the teaching of the gospel, as every believer who fears the Lord would quickly remind themselves.

16 Act as free men, and [a]do not use your freedom as a covering for evil, but use it as bondslaves of God. 17 Honor all people, love the brotherhood, fear God, honor the [b]king.

18 Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but also to those who are [c]unreasonable. 

—1 Peter 2

Mr. President of the United States of America:

There is an abundance of information that proves indignant regarding the zero tolerance policy?

People of America:

There is a different way of conducting ourselves to provide a point of influence, but the war is not against our President or flesh and blood! That needs to be clear!

1 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not against [a]flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.

—Ephesians 6

The Mother Of All Living

Segment-5

“…because she was the mother of all the living.” (Genesis 3:20)

I’ve experienced the pain of passing a kidney stone… It was excruciating! And, I’ve been told that, that it is the closest resemblance of pain a man can experience to a woman giving birth. Personally, I don’t think it compares—even though there is a sense of pride by having that relation.

After reviewing the previous segment, hope to have appropriately used the marital love scenery between man and woman (male and female) to describe the level of intimacy God has for His Wife (creation). That intimacy exemplifies to educate the soul about love and how that Spirit of Love is producing life to our vessels of flesh. You should be able to see how a Father and Mother (God) breathed genesis into the first human being. We are all made in the image and likeness of God (man and woman, male and female). The art of a man and woman features the mind, heart, and nature (Personality) of God as Love living in everything to apply reason, purpose, and practicality. I believe this to be so important to understand as this world has been twisted into a falsity. There is a purely innocent act of pleasure to procreate, but has, and is…become more and more perverted with unnatural desires for release to an addiction. Our tool of technology is dangerous, but useful with the right skill. An ability to provide a plethora of information that connects each of us to one simple understanding… We’re addicted. Addicted to sin. But the skill manipulating the tool of technology is more importantly resolved by rejoicing—in the providence of God. Take biology as an example (use google to research biology).  There are several branches to the tree of biology, but I’ve become fixated on the cell. Research, ‘What is a cell‘ and find out how cells “…are the building blocks for all living things”. In the process of my learning more about the cell find a peculiar theme that dominates the study: conversion. What happens to a person who smokes? Their lungs convert to tar. Those cells are revealing information that relay a message, “This is not natural. You! Are! Going! Tooo! DIE…”. Cells seem to be the “tattletales” of your body’s condition, reporting the news whether heathy or unhealthy of and for your survival. Cells also describe your personality. By this, I see, the providence of God. Can you see the reason why life is conscious? How not only that we’re aware of being alive, but how we can relate to God and God relate to us? Can you see the reason we can understand right from wrong? We’re not limited by the ground of which we were made, but limited by the grace through faith in Whom we believe converts us—conversion. The power of God.

Is it difficult, or possibly scary, for you to be…subjectively objective…of an eternity not your own—living in the mind of God for the purpose of God as a child of God? And is it scary because your not in control of God, or…is it that, you are not the judge of your own reality? Time in the Word of God, is time with Jesus in the Kingdom of God… You begin to learn the environment of eternality! An evil nature is lived as rejecting the truth of our purpose; which is described as denying a relationship with God by choosing our own (sin) nature verses subjecting ourselves to our original nature (before sin); meaning that we are a conflicted nature in need of restoration due to inheriting condemnation at the beginning. That condemnation is by deception, but reconciliation is by revelation of conception (conceiving the Word of God)—the Spirit of the living God is then being produced in the believing soul as a baby waiting to be born. (Just as the Spirit of God hovered over His creation {the virgin Mary} to conceive Jesus, the Child of God—so too, do we Christians, conceive the Word of God {Jesus} to live reflecting the testimony of Truth and Love so that you might believe and have everlasting life)

20 Now the man called his wife’s name [h]Eve, because she was the mother of all the living. (Genesis 3)

Why did the man name his wife, Eve, and why “was” she the mother of all the living. Can you see the truth within our nature and reason to believe? (God is revealing the Character of Himself, *Himself*, meaning a perfect relationship between a male and female God, no different that a woman taking on the last name of her husband). So a Holy Invisible God is nurturing us into a life of understanding. Understanding the eternal nature of God by enlightenment of revelation through inspiration of the Holy Spirit of God. If you are choosing to deny that understanding… Why?
