We're not that old; not that different from the first man/woman, despite what the revisionists say. We are in a cosmic play/trial, and the performance isn't that long.

I’ve long said that life on earth is just the great cosmic placement test for eternity.

No we are not that different. The revisionists are akin to closet Nazis. They believe themselves as “specially” in tune with “the times”, with “advanced evolved races”, ET like connected people.

These people are completely nuts.

and for all the funny little atheists on Big Bang Theory and other shows, quantum physics and advanced astronomy proves what you say about time and reality…….as science slowly catches up to the Bible...

The Bible gives the factual account of Lucifer’s rebellion in heaven...

Any reference on this? What book/verse?

Interesting. Just earlier today I posted a quote from Sir Isaac Newton in reference to the modern day Humanistic science environment.

When presented with the tired, old “You cannot be a scientist if you believe in God.” I simply ask if that means Sir Isaac Newton was not a scientist. I mean, he is considered to be one of, if not the, greatest scientists to ever live.

“Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but it cannot explain who set the planets in motion. God governs all things and knows all that is or can be done”
- Sir Isaac Newton -

I believe God is everything.

But here is a Science Fiction story that often plays in my head. Of course I don’t necessarily believe this, I often ponder on the physics of God.

God is everything and everywhere. He is the Universe from beginning to end. Our souls are part of Universes energy that he has given to us to distill and purify into goodness. When we die, what is good and pure ascends to God and becomes part of Heaven. What is bad descends to Satan and becomes part of Hell. What is grey is mixed back into the energy pool and drawn again for another soul to be born.

Our finite minds cannot conceive who or what God really is....

His Word gives us a template to see and understand to a degree....a small one...

We humans have not changed ONE iota in all of our entire human history. Not an iota.
We are healthier, more educated, longer living and very high tech.

However, we are NOT happier, nicer or better people--not ONE iota.
We are STILL Adam and Eve and some of us still INSIST on believing in Lucifer's lies. There are even Satanic cults. How EVIL and useless is that?!

Transcribed portion of a sermon from BH Clendennen to pastors

Let God deal with ourselves before we ever deal with anybody else, that's a message of God Don't come pointing a way, let em follow you in "the way" is the message that's here.

You know the Message of Pentecost I told ya, "Is God the Father, through God the Holy Ghost, revealing God the Son, through a human vessel called The Church".

Now that should govern everything that we say, every message that we preach, everything that we do, all of God's purpose is summed up in that one line.

We have seen how, in "the fall", man's spirit was so violated, that he sank down, in subjection to his soul, and man became an altogether different creature than God had made him. He is spirit died toward God so he no longer has the capability to communicate with God, he'd become an altogether different man.

Adam didn't just need forgiveness, that nature could never come back to God. So God drove him from that garden, which was symbolic of His presence, set a Cherubim and a sword at the gate, that said "your kind can never come back in here.

Now through the life, death, and resurrection of The Lord Jesus Christ, God has secured a new race. Jesus being first born of that race. Now through His death, a "new and living way" was opened up to God, Man can be "born again"

He who knew no sin, became sin, that you and I might actually become the Righteousness of God. Now this "transformation" is accomplished by replacing one life with another life. Only this way, when a man is "born again", there's a new creation, but there's still that "old" to be dealt with. It is "this body", in "this body" there's two people, "the old" and "the new", and that's what brings on the "warfare" that you read about in Romans 7.

When that, there was no problem in Abrahams tent until Isaac was born. Ismael was 13 years old when the "spiritual man" Isaac was born, no need dividing the tent folks, one of em has to get out of here.

There's never going to be any peace until one way or another, that we settle this "warfare". Paul says the flesh lusts against The Spirit, and The Spirit against the flesh, so that you and I as men of God and women of God, cannot do what we would. That's as plain as it comes. Not the devil, but that flesh, that's the body of the devil.

Just like the spiritual "born again" new creature is the Body of Christ, that "old nature" is the body of Satan.
