Before recorded time, space, reality, man, and existence, there was only
darkness. The universe was void, baron, and without form. And the
Lord our God said let there be light and then there was light. And God saw
the light and it was good! As a result of that event, thus sparks the
state of being or the essence of creation, through God's own imagination.
Undocumented moments in time pass, and God then creates what is concealed in his
own endless imagination. Space, time, and reality now immerge into
existence because of his will and now lay before his glory.
In some unknown time God then reveals what he's created to his son and to all
who exist before the creation of this life. Naturally they are all
pleased! All accept one rebellious hostile and deceitful entity.
His name was Lucifer, God's second in command at that particular moment in time.
Lucifer has many names the Accuser, the Destroyer, the Evil One, the Father of
Lies, the Devil or Satan etc… Nonetheless no matter which way you look at
it he's still the bringer of death, the harbinger of evil. He comes but
only to destroy, to defile, and to desecrate.
Consequently because of his selfish, jealous, greedy, and evil
thoughts he betrayed his own creator in a futile attempt to overthrow God, and
to gain an untold amount of power. This was the ultimate mistake. In
turn the consequences of his actions were severe. As he reverted to his
true state, he was then defeated by Michael, the leader of the Archangels and
was cast out of heaven. So to were 1/3 of heaven's army cast out of
heaven, and descended into hell along side Lucifer, in whom they trusted and
believed in.
They all dwell eternally in that place therein, that place which
they call hell. Those angels were the fallen, the ones who chose to rebel
against their creator, their heritage, their origin, their master, and evidently
their God. Sadly in the end they shall ultimately perish because of the
misuse of their God given powers that they've corrupted to serve their own evil
motives and intentions.
Time passes; God then decides to make a pristine creation, individually unique
from all others, which have since been created before and after it. It's
made in his own likeness, and is formed of the earth but is given the gift of
life through God's own breath. Perhaps the true reason why this new
creation was chosen to be created is to someday be made worthy to replenish the
ranks of the absent 1/3 of Heaven's army, which chose to rebel against God.
Upon completion of this new creation it is given a name "Adam".
He's given power over all other life forms which all dwell in
the Garden of Eden. Pleased with what he sees God then allows Adam to
interact with his immediate surroundings already inside the garden. As
Adam frolics, he brings much happiness in Gods sight. As a result God then
decides to create another, but from Adam. Possibly it was a gesture of
great love for Adam, God decided to bring as much happiness to Adam as Adam
brought to God! After the creation of the second it's given the name "Eve"
and is made equal to the first "Adam". Unlike the first creation the
second was created to accompany it's predecessor as a companion, in the gift of
life.
As they matured with one another both beings became found of each other.
Through mutual conversation, gestures, perspectives and individual preferences
they in time made a unique mental, spiritual, and physical bond between one
another. This is still unknown to all others after them even to this day.
During those unknown moments in all of existence the evil one was busily
scheming up ways on how his plan to rebel against God was going to commence.
Alas, how he gained access and acquired the power to take the
form of the snake is beyond me. Possibly man is not yet eligible to
possess such knowledge, as to it's potential consequences it could inflict on
the one who obtains it. Nonetheless once Lucifer proceeded to test
Humanity through his various forms of deception, temptation, and persuasion the
results of his insidious deeds were disastrous.
Upon the act of the first sin mankind unknowingly forfeited its
power over evil, and in turn over the Devil the one who is the very
manifestation of evil. As punishment God then bestowed upon both factions
of Humanity the appropriate consequences of their sins. Following that,
the two were then cast out of the garden and left to fend for themselves; all
awhile still not knowing that God was still with them despite their
disobedience.
Over time, unseen by our eyes the two became many and the many in turn raised
unknown masses. Birth-by-birth, day-by-day, year-by-year, the masses
flourished and multiplied hastily! Each person with it's own individual
thoughts, opinions, and choices forms unique thought patterns. As a result
they decide to depart and venture out into unchartered regions of the earth
uninhabited by Humanity, but were occupied by various life forms both visible
and invisible.
It's possible that those that were invisible were actually
fallen angels belonging to the devil, but concealed in multiple false
appearances dwelling at various locations in the world. Nonetheless they
thrived and replenished their numbers while adapting both mentally and
physically to their new surroundings. Just as animals utilize vital
knowledge when they conform to their native habitats, based on the previous
wisdom they've inherited from their ancestors.
With precise contemplation all groups of people forge various cultures and
civilizations. All filled with unique agricultural, domestic, educational,
and spiritual, views. Views of which originate from a collection of
factual, and possibly fictional information passed down from generation to
generation by their original predecessors. Ultimately because of the
presence of ignorance, greed, selfishness, envy, hate, jealousy, or fear in the
hearts and minds of certain members of Humanity hardened their hearts. The act
of war was now coming into to full swing.
As the ages pass by untold numbers of people, be they men,
women, or children alike were slaughtered. What for you ask, all in their
foolish quest to gain power and to wield it over others. Absolute power
corrupts absolutely and it often destroys the ones who seek to possess it.
In time era by era recedes into past factions of history. Incomprehensible
amounts of individuals immerge and depart in and out of the physical world, but
only a few chosen are really awake.
They're mentally aware of the visually concealed events, which
transpire in and around them, every instant in time that they exist within their
solitary vessels in this reality. For the duration of their lifetimes
they've accumulated an array of different experiences both natural and
supernatural. At various periods in the lives of the few they all
eventually come to the same broader conclusion.
"Humanity shouldn't concern themselves on ways of devising plans
on how to destroy itself, we all should unite together and prepare to challenge
the true evil.” He has many names, and forms which spans many different
cultures, but in the end he brings only death and despair to those who seek him.
Turn to him and fool no one but yourself. “One should not tamper with
things that are not of good in nature, it is not the true way of things."
The meaning of life is to exist in peace with one another, to respect all of the
creatures of God, to grow to maturity in God the father, to protect the earth
and all who live therein. For you see we are all members of a higher
order, we are all children of God the Father! Since he created us we
should obey and act accordingly to his words. In my own opinion the whole
reason for this life is quite simple. Before we were sentient,
self-conscious, and self-aware individuals, individuals with the gift of freedom
of choice, the whole essence of our very beings existed through God. And
in God we were pure, holy, and sinless. Eventually we all immerge into the
world unwillingly, frightened, but in time we learn to adapt, becoming new
members of Humanity.
Some of us are supposed to come into the real world, and some
aren't. Not all of us are meant for this world; some of us have more
pressing matters to tend to. Ultimately it's God's decision to make in the
end, and he owes us all no immediate explanation as to what he decides for us.
We are his creations he is not our creation. You see those who choose to
believe in God, choose to believe in the truth, like it or not. So you see
you need not question the actions of God because he's greater than us, and he
greater than any evil. As a result they who truly believe in him, yielded
to his glory, and have done good works in the Lord's eyes shall reap what they
have sown.
Life is a test filled with trials and tribulations, some good some bad and it's
up to us to choose which path we’ll take in this life. I think that we
were all born in this world because God wants to see what path we will choose to
take in life. God just wants to see what our true intentions will be in
the end so that he can make his final decision upon where we will consequently
end up. So that when we are remade into new beings, the whole cycle
of war in heaven won't repeat it's self all over again. Who
knows, perhaps once we are remade into new creations we'll be able to join the
ranks of Heaven's hierarchy based on the core of our beings.
To know God is to know the truth, the way, and the life!
Everyone already knows this, somewhere deep in the depths of our hearts, minds,
bodies and souls. It's up to you and me to choose which path we want to
take. But know this, it's God's wish for all to live our true lives with
him again forever and ever, why because this is our birthright so saith the
Lord! In the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit amen.
