 And so it began, the ages passed and the process
began to take place. First a place for man
was spoken into being and man was created to oversee the place made for him. The foundations of the earth were
laid with the earth set at the exact angle and rotation to allow gravity. Afterwards, the star we call the
sun was spoken into being at the perfect distance to create the seasons and rule the day. Then its smaller
brother the moon was spoken into being so it could rule the night. Souls were conceived and every one of
their days was written before one of them came to be. The perfect God made the perfect plan and set it into
motion. In order for man to become the very image of the holy God he must acquire all the attributes of the
holy God and to accomplish this he must become redeemed man. Fully engulfed in his sin, Lucifer wanted not
only to be like God but to BE God and passed those same desires down to all who would believe his lies.
Alas! Alas for Lucifer and the angels he deceived, for there can be only one God the Father. Alas! Alas
for man, for he was created in the very image of God but again there can be only one God the Father,
only one Alpha and Omega. Only one all powerful and almighty God, there was no God formed before Him nor
shall there ever be after Him. (Isaiah 43:10) But through God's perfect plan for humanity there has become
redeemed man and redeemed man can through the sacrifice of the Word become sons and daughters of God. Only
redeemed man can reach a higher plain or attain a higher purpose than even the angels. 1 Corinthians 6:3A Know ye not that we shall judge angels? Through the sacrifice of the Word the door was opened, the stage was set and the
second act of the play was set in motion. 1 Corinthians 15:54-57 54So 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.
55O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
56The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. God's plan had come to fruition; the Impossible King had now made it possible for
each and every soul to overcome sin and death
thereby bringing about redeemed man a much higher form than even the angels. Bob Goulding © October 2007 Go to:
