Iniquity Causes Destruction, A Separation From God's Righteousness

AN EXODUS CALLING, DIRECTING ALL TO EVACUATE SPIRITUAL BABYLONIAN PRINCIPLES


The Deceiver, Satan, has formulated two Worldwide erroneous Judgment Days: May 21, 2011 and December 21, 2012. Such deceptions, once accepted, function as delaying mechanisms, providing a false sense of security, de-emphasizing the priority of urgent well-needed Character Perfecting goals and Victory over sin (Matthew 5:48, 1John 3:9). "But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father" (Matthew 24:35-37, Mark 13:32-37).

While de-popularizing and ridiculing the pursuit of undefiled biblical Truth and its "Berean-minded" Seekers, Satan has darkened the minds of human beings concerning God’s Character and Law with lies and false accusations (Isaiah 8:20, Acts 17:10-11, Revelation 12:17, 14:12). However, it remains clear that Satan is a deceiver, liar and murderer from the beginning (John 8:44, Revelation 12:9). Satan has represented God’s law of love falsely as a law of selfishness, declaring that mankind should instead obey the precepts of self-righteousness. Concerning the fall of Adam and Eve, Satan has made claims that God is responsible for sin, destruction and death. Christ entered our world to unveil satanic deceptions, exposing that “...God is light, and in him is no darkness at all” (1 John 1:5). 1 John 5:3 reveals that we must keep His Ten Commandments, and that they are not grievous, revealing that God is love and His nature is love (1John 4:8, 16, 19). Satan suggested that there is darkness in God and that His Ten Commandments are grievous, and thus in Revelations 12:9 we learn that Satan is a deceiver, misguiding the entire world regarding the Ten Commandments, the Character of God. The Great Deceiver has caused a wrong concept of God’s law. Satan at the origin of the mystery of iniquity claimed that there is darkness in God; however, Christ came to reveal eternal TRUTH that the Ten Commandments [God's Immutable Character Transcript] are to be kept, as they are not grievous (Exodus 20).

Satan has misrepresented God’s law of love as a law of selfishness, suggesting that God is a dictator, disallowing freedom of choice (Romans 5:5, Desire of Ages page 21, Steps to Christ page 77). The Great deceiver has minimized the issue of sin, portraying God as an unjust Creator who is dark and persecutory. Christ came however, to reveal the light of God’s unchanging love. Revealing that our Creator is truly ADORABLE, God has provided mankind with freedom of choice, allowing the development of genuine character and happiness. Creating humans as robots would not have provided spontaneity and the output of genuine love. God gave mankind genuine freedom of choice, allowing mankind to choose their behaviors, its results and consequences.

Sin is destructive. Fallen nature sadly may perceive sin as being sweet and appealing, however, by principle, sin separates righteousness and wisdom from power. All the powers made by God, are made under the control of wisdom and righteousness. Whenever power is separated from wisdom and righteousness, it becomes perverted and prone to disaster. Before the flood and before the fall of man, no hurricanes and storms were present. All power was under the righteous power of God, every creative power worked perfectly under infinite righteousness, producing only good. When Adam voted Satan’s government into planet earth, sin began to separate power from wisdom and righteousness. Wisdom is the righteous use of power to produce good. Sin separates power from wisdom and righteousness fully due to its falsifying, perverting nature (Romans 6:23, James 1:15, 1John 3:4).

Natural disasters are a direct result of satanic sin, controlling the world with perverted power, resulting in disaster (Revelation 16:1-21). Similar to the human body, we have organs that require God’s power to control its function in perfection, protecting it from destruction and death. Romans 5:12 proves that disease and human death, are as the result of sin. Sadly, humankind’s act of diverting from the righteous and wise power of God caused self-destruction, leading into death. Mankind’s perverted, sinful diet and lifestyle choices have caused human destruction and consequential death. Romans 6:23 edifies that “… the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord”.

Sin is a malignant contagion. Although Satan presents sin as attractive and appealing to the senses, sin is malignant and produces death, perverting perfect wisdom and righteousness in God's creations. Satan camouflages the cancerous disease of sin by deceiving the masses, but sin ultimately produces death (James 1:15). Selfishness and self-exaltation are principles of Satan's worldly governments. God is love (1John 4:8, 16, 19). It was God’s intention that all of God’s creations live under the complete righteous power of unchanging, eternal love (Romans 1:20, 5:5). The state of planet earth today can be attributed to selfishness and self-exaltation, a principle of Satan’s spiritual kingdoms and government. God intended that His creations would live under the provisions of His perfect, eternal, self-sacrificing government. At the point of Adam’s disobedience, selfishness entered the universe.

Originating in Heaven, the conflict between God and Satan’s government has become localized on planet earth and freewill permits mankind to choose righteousness or sin. If one chooses God’s government and righteous power, they will receive eternal life, however, conversely if one chooses selfishness, Satan’s government, a perverted power, they will taste the second death (Revelation 20:14). James 1:15 edifies that sin is like a cancer, resulting only in death. The world reflects sin as sweet and attractive, causing Worldians to believe that God is a destroyer interrupting their fun, a deceptive teaching of Satan (Revelations 12:9). God is unchanging and the use of force contrasts His Divine Principles (Desire of Ages page 22):

"And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon [as per Strong's Concordance Hebrew, meaning destroying angel], but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon [as per Strong's Concordance Greek, meaning destroying angel]" (Revelation 9:11).

"The exercise of force is contrary to the principles of God's government; He desires only the service of love; and love cannot be commanded; it cannot be won by force or authority" (Desire of Ages page 22).

"God could have destroyed Satan and his sympathizers as easily as one can cast a pebble to the earth; but He did not do this. Rebellion was not to be overcome by force. Compelling power is found only under Satan's government" (Desire of Ages page 759).

"It is thus that the great deceiver seeks to conceal his own work. By stubborn rejection of divine love and mercy, the Jews had caused the protection of God to be withdrawn from them, and Satan was permitted to rule them according to his will" (Great Controversy page 35).

Undeniably, sin is malignant requiring a cure. Christ Jesus is the sole cure for sin, allowing the unselfish, infinite, eternal love of God to deliver mankind from the bondage, darkness and selfishness of sin. Christ achieved our victory over iniquity, as He was born into sinful fallen flesh, the second and last Adam, embracing all mankind, resisting temptation; and remaining fully under the will and control of His Father’s love (John 16:33, Hebrews 4:15, 1Corinthians 15:45-58). Christ exercised complete faith, perfectly exhibiting the love of God for us, tasting the second death for the righteous, setting His saints free while preserving their positions in His eternal kingdom (John 3:15). By faith, those who obey and receive God’s mercy will be delivered from the perversion of sin and its deceptive unrighteous powers. The University of Heaven will be a wonderful experience for those who choose to align with God’s righteous empowering government, receiving wisdom and the perfect, infinite power of God (Romans 1:20, 2Peter 3:18). Christ’s righteousness is a free gift (Ephesians 2:8-10, Philippians 3:9-11). Galatians 5:6 edifies that faith works through perfect love, as we fully surrender to God, keeping His non-grievous Ten Commandments, the Decalogue, written with the finger of God (Exodus 20, 31:18).

God’s remnant will keep His character transcript, the Ten Commandments, adhering to perfect righteous power, love and wisdom, abstaining from selfish principles and the perverted power of sin that results in death (Deuteronomy 6:4, Proverbs 8:22-36, John 1:1-3,14, Romans 1:16-20, 5:1-5, 1Corinthians 1:30). Christ came to unveil all satanic deceptions, revealing that God is complete light and within Him there is no darkness (1John 1:5). God’s love is eternal, infinite and unconditional: it is a love that made a supreme sacrifice, as God sacrificed His only begotten Son for the cause of sin in our planet earth (John 3:16). Overcomers thus require God’s perfect sin remedy, which separates us from the condition of the world today, a planet contaminated with iniquity (Revelation 2:7, 3:21). Mankind must thus love each other, while clothed with Christ’s perfect righteousness. God is not the author of sin or death, but He is the author of Eternal life, granting all complete sovereignty, a plan of salvation centered in Jesus Christ, bringing those who choose to accept Him back to everlasting righteousness, the Law of Life, the Spirit of Beneficence (Daniel 9:24, Romans 5:5, Steps to Christ page 77, Desire of Ages page 21).

Henceforth, while engaged in God's willful actions and behaviors, may we all remain fixed on Christ, receiving His SEAL in our foreheads, preparing for TRANSLATION (1Corinthians 15:51-53, Revelation 14:1).
