The Original Hater of Reality - Lucifer son of the Morning

Lucifer, God’s greatest of all God's creation (Ezek. 28:12, 15), in eternity past enjoyed a relationship to Almighty God. I truly believe there was a point in his existence that he loved and adored and the Triune God with all his heart. He had the chief place as Protector of the Holiness of God (Ezek. 28:14) and was the worship and choir director of Heaven (Ezek. 28:13). Lucifer enjoyed all the heavenly blessings of his rank and position. As events proceeded, though, there came a time when he became proud, arrogant, envious and bitter. In his foolish heart he sought the place of his Eternal Creator and Sovereign for himself, and he led a delusional rebellion against Almighty God in which he and his followers were cast out (Isaiah 14:12-15; Ezek. 28:15-18; Jude 1:6; Rev. 12:4). Lucifer could have remained in his highly honored position indefinitely, enjoying the eternal blessings and fellowship with His Creator. In his madness, however, Lucifer chose rather to abandon the confines of absolute reality and perfection for a vain existence in the darkness of make-believe and delusion. In his attempt to exalt and preserve himself at all cost, he rejected and abandoned all that was real, becoming a murderer of souls, a tyrant of humanity, a despot to the fallen angelic host and a mastermind of slander, false truths and darkness. He is known as the Prince of Darkness (error, delusion and vain imagination) for thus is his reality (Isaiah 14:17-17; John 8:44; 1 John 3:8, Rev. 12:9).

"Lucifer chose rather to abandon the confines of absolute reality and perfection for a vain existence in the darkness of make-believe and delusion"

Facing Reality

In the end Lucifer will give a complete account for his godless existence, in which he will be damned (sentenced) forever in the eternal prison called the Lake of Fire. He will finally have to face the reality of absolute truth for all eternity in a place of torment prepared by Almighty God for him and all his followers (Matt. 25:41; Rev. 20:10).

Lucifer (Satan, the Devil) will be tormented forever and ever by the reality of absolute truth and the righteous perfection that Almighty God demands. The very REALITY that he sought to rebel against and alter will be his eternal abode forevermore.

Are You A Lover of Reality?

As we live in this current delusional day when lawlessness and anarchy are dominating almost all facets of American life, may Almighty God be your trust and provide for you all your expectations. Do you know Jesus Christ as your Personal Savior? If not, may you do so even today. He will provide you with the ABSOLUTE TRUTH (REALITY) and you will never be the same! (John 8:32,36)

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Haters of Reality - Part 2

Rule It All Joy!

"My brethren, count (rule it) it all joy when ye fall (surrounded, into a pit) into divers temptations. Knowing (experiential knowledge) this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience (endurance). But let patience (endurance) have her perfect (complete) work, that ye may be perfect (complete) and entire (whole), wanting nothing (content and ready to roll). If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed (James 1:2-6)"

One might ask, how can anyone “count it all joy” when they fall into many divers (different) testings? Ah… my friend, the fruit and spiritual wisdom that will be harvested from the adversity and testing will make the child of God to truly shout Alleluia! For at the end of your testing, the possession of the treasures of heavenly wisdom will indeed make you shout for joy! It will have been well worth your adverse journey!

Trials and tribulations here in time - in the will of Almighty God - for the child of God, will only bring us closer to our Savior (John 8:32). These trials will also develop and enlarge our minds and hearts. They will broaden our heavenly vision - in the light of temporal time - with greater eternal understanding (1 Peter 1:7).

The exercising and application of God’s Word in a believer’s life produces a heavenly wisdom and comprehension that transcends this earthly realm. Apart from Almighty God these riches can never be obtained by earthly means. By faith in Almighty God we access an entrance into an arena and realm that very few comprehend let alone grasp (Rom. 11:3, Col 2:2-3).

"The exercising and application of God’s Word in a believer’s life produces a heavenly wisdom and comprehension that transcends this earthly realm"

.
There Are No Short Cuts

Many try to manufacture and produce the heavenly joy and experiential wisdom by earthy carnal means, but the end results of these are the eventually collapse and shipwreck of the child of Almighty God on the rocks of unbelief (Matt 7:26-27, 1 Tim 1:19, Heb. 4:2, James 1:22).

Only when the mind of the child of God is absolutely fixed (Is 26:3) and locked onto Almighty God’s never changing Word - by faith with application - will the child of God enter into a realm of spiritual treasure and knowledge that transcends the confinements of time (Prov 4:7, Rom. 11:3, Col 2:2-3, 1 Peter 1:7). It is only when Almighty God’s Word is applied and exercised in the life of the child of God that spiritual growth will take place (John 15). It does not come cheap and is well worth the price (1 Peter 1:7).

What ever you are going through today; take this opportunity to trust Almighty God and apply His Word in your life by faith and watch what God will do for you. He will enlarge your mind and heart. He give you a heavenly vision that will help you comprehend and know in your heart that Heaven is our home and that God truly loves you and wants only the highest and best for you (Rom 8:28). The world will see that in deed Christ in you is wise and their famished soul will desire the wonderful fruits of the Spirit in your life (Matt 5:16, Luke 8:8, Gal 5:22-23).

My Beloved, bring along your notebook and pencil and pay close attention to what Almighty God is seeking to teach you. Have faith in God with great thanksgiving! You will never be the same! Never!

Faith Is The Victory That Overcomes The World!

Daily bombardments from the world rattle and destroy the faith of the men and women of God. It is sad to say that many are now shipwrecked on the rocks of unbelief and self-pity. Satan in his attempt to overrule truth (reality), absolutes and the Eternal Person of God seeks to destroy the love and dedication of God's children. The Bible states:

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8), and: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12).

The truth of the matter is that we are in a Great Spiritual War for the hearts, souls and minds of men. Many are oblivious to this fact. Satan, in his rebellion against Almighty God, seeks the ruin and destruction of anyone that practices the absolute truths of the Creator and His Word.

There is adversity upon adversity, calamity upon calamity in this fallen world. There is no peace, no Utopia. To think otherwise is a delusion and a lie. Be not deceived! This is not our home. Jesus said, These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world (John 16:33), and: exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God (Acts 14:22). The good news is that Christ will set up His Kingdom at His Second Coming to earth and establish His kingdom in righteousness (perfection). Then - and only then - will there be world peace.

As we wait for His soon coming, looking into God’s Holy Word, the Bible repeatedly speaks of His great love for us. God's love, as defined therein, wants only the highest and best for the object of His love. The highest and best is the person of God and His will and way for each individual. God, who is infinite, gives all of His Eternal Person to finite man.

David stated; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour (Psalm 8:4,5),

Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered (Psalm 40:5).

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:35-39),

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16).

.

"God loves you!!! Don't let your own heart or Satan tell you otherwise!

.

Passing through trials and adversities, it might seem to some that God is our enemy and that He doesn't care. Oh Beloved, this could not be further from the truth. Satan the slanderer loves it when we are deceived into thinking and believing this. But by faith in God and His Word, we can defeat this strategy of the enemy of our souls. The Bible states: For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? (1 John 5:4,5).

The victory is gained when a person puts his or her faith and trust in The Person of Almighty God. As believers in Christ, we can by faith get through the adversity and calamity that comes our way, knowing that God indeed loves us and has a plan to make us winners, not losers. Listen to this promise: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Romans 8:26). God has a wonderful plan for you!

In these last days may we be strong and of good courage and have faith in Almighty God. May we see - with the eyes of faith - past this physical world into the very throne room of Heaven, and be more than a Conqueror in Christ.

Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place (2 Cor. 2:14).

Remember, Beloved: Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you [i.e., Christ], than he that is in the world [i.e., Satan and his minions] (1 John 4:4).

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

The Tea Party Convention and America's True Tyranny

(In light of the National Tea Party Convention)

In the days leading up to the American Revolution, the Boston Tea Party was a direct action protest against the British government by British-American subjects in the Massachusetts Bay colony of Boston. On December 16, 1773, after officials in Boston refused to return three shiploads of taxed tea to Britain, a group of colonists dressed up as Native American Indians boarded these ships and destroyed the tea by throwing it into Boston Harbor. This event remains one of the most memorialized historic events to transpire in U.S. history, and it has been recently referenced due to excessive U.S. government growth and its outrageous spending.

"We must do all we can, of course, but our hope and expectation must derive from Almighty God. In Him alone is there true deliverance in light of the oncoming tyranny at hand"

Today we have seen an exponential growth of Government and Taxation unprecedented in any other time in our 400-year history. Today, Big Government is reaching into every facet of our life, and no one or no thing is safe from the brand and bondage. As our God given freedoms and moral rights are being aggressively removed by this constitutionally apostate President and Congress, we Americans find ourselves facing a new kind of Governmental tyranny and bondage from which we likely will never be liberated. We must do all we can, of course, but our hope and expectation must derive from Almighty God. In Him alone is there true deliverance in light of the oncoming tyranny at hand.

A Far Greater Tyranny

The Lord Jesus talked of a far greater tyranny to man than Big Government, excessive taxation, burdensome mandates and ceaseless intrusions into the lives of its citizens.

Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant [slave] of sin (John 8:34).

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned - For if by one man's offence death reigned by one - That as sin hath reigned unto death (Rom. 5:12, 17a, 21a).

O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? (Rom. 7:24)

(Other verses: Job 14:1-4, Psalm 51:5, Eph 2:1-3, Rom. 3:23, 5:12, 17a, 21, 7:14-25)

Satan's Oppressive Rule Over Fallen Mankind

And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me. Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage (Heb. 2: 13-15).

How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him (Acts 10:38).

And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others (Eph. 2:1-3).

[In light of Lucifer, i.e., Satan] That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? (Is. 14:17)

(Other verses: 2 Cor. 4:4, Luke 4:6-7, Rev.12,13)

True Freedom and Deliverance

Only in Christ is there great freedom and deliverance from the bondage of Satan and our human depravity, and the terrible consequences of the outworking of sin (John 8:32, 36, Rom. 7:24-25; Heb 2:14-16). Humanity has never and will never be able to govern itself, not in this fallen world. Tyranny and the unbridled passions of man will always win the day. Six thousand years of human history has testified to that fact. Our Founding Fathers realized that truth, and that only a moral and God-fearing people would ever have a chance of outworking the kind of human government that could check the depraved appetites of fallen humanity while preserving the basic liberties and freedoms endowed by their Creator. We as a nation today have discarded a sense of healthy morals and ethical guidelines, and are sadly reaping the tyrannical social consequences. Oppressive tyranny is not too far off here in America. When this tyranny and its fearful ramifications fully manifest themselves, what then?

"We as a nation today have discarded a sense of healthy morals and ethical guidelines, and are sadly reaping the tyrannical social consequences"

Ask yourself this very simple question. How can an imperfect humanity who lives in an imperfect world bring about an absolutely perfect “Utopian” society? (see Romans 7:24) The answer is a no-brainer yet extremely hard for humanity to digest: it never can. The only hope and deliverance for humanity today is found in its wonderful Creator and Redeemer, The Lord Jesus Christ.

Do you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior today? Only He can deliver you from the oppressive tyranny of Satan and the World System. He is the only deliverer from our bondage to Sin and all its awful consequences (Rom. 6:23). He has come to set at liberty the sons of men (Rom. 4:17,18, 6:14,17-18, 22, 7: 24-25, 8:2,21, Gal. 5:1, Eph 4:8). May it be your sincere desire to put your trust in Him today!

And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free (John 8:32).

If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed (John 8:36).

The Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand!

Babelology - Ideologies and Their Origins

Babelology is the delusional, godless ideology and philosophy (religious or political) that is outworked and practiced here in time by unregenerate (i.e., Fallen) man (see Romans 7:15-24; 8:5-8). This vain ideology seeks to exclude the reality of Almighty God - His Word, His Attributes, His Absolutes, His Natural Laws, His Righteousness, His Salvation, His Judgment and His Sovereignty as Creator - from one’s thoughts and actions. It is manifested in a life led by self-will, ruled and dominated by man's fallen nature marred by sin (Romans 5:12,19; 8:5-8; Gal. 5:16-17) and a deceived heart (Jer. 17:9). Unbelief (godlessness) is one of its main fruits (Matt 15:16-20; Gal 5:19-21; 6:7-8). During the whole time of earth’s history (which Biblically is approximately 6000 years), Babelology has expressed itself through human defiance and unbelief (see Romans 1:18-22).

Babelology may be found in many different religious and political manners and forms (Left/ Right, Subjective/ Objective, Absolute/ Relative, etc.), and purports that man can exist in time and eternity without a vital relationship to the Eternal Creator and Sustainer established in truth and righteousness (Rom. 1:23-32). It is an existence that functions in darkness - not in light, in error - not in truth, in unrighteousness - not in righteousness, and in godlessness - not in godliness. The end result of this delusion is the absolute damnation and eternal ruin of its practitioner in Almighty God’s eternal prison for rebellious (lost) men and angels: Hell, or the Lake of Fire (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14; 1 Cor. 15:50; Rev 20:11-15; 21:8,27; 22:11).

Mother Babel - The Originator of Ideologies "Religious and Political"

Babel to Present - (See Chart)

Ever since the Tower of Babel rebellion about 4,200 years ago (Gen 11:1-9), the vast majority of mankind has been governed and ruled by this godless political and religious system. This idolatrous ideology has indeed developed and deepened throughout the world system for ~ 4,200 years. Civilizations and cultures, ideologies and philosophies, religions and societies, cities and nations, morals and traditions have all sprung forth from this event. God in His judgment scattered the people (Gen 11:8-10; Deut. 32:7-8) to the “four corners” of the earth. It is these God-rejecting rebellious seeds - planted by the founders of Babel - that now dominates the world. The great hope and aim of this godless ideology is to achieve a global Utopia in which man's fallen nature and the fallen creation will be in harmony with one another. This Godless philosophy and hope is absolutely doomed to dismal failure (Rom. 8:20-22, 1 Cor. 1:18-31).

“One must look outside the box of this world system and believe Almighty God and His Word! Then and only then can one find the answers of life, and see the reality of what life and existence in time and eternity is all about.” (see 1 Kings 8:60; Isaiah 45:21-24; John 14:6)

Almighty God is the reality of time and eternity! All gods, ideologies, philosophies and traditions are absolutely bankrupt and an abomination before Him (Exodus 20:3; Deut. 4:23-25). Almighty God’s Word states:

I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me (Isaiah 45:5a).

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me (John 14:6).

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (John 17:17).

For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven (Psalm 119:89).

Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever (Psalm 119:160).

The Bible states that Man must be rescued from his fallen humanity (i.e., lost condition). This is achieved when one puts their trust and faith in the Savior of the world, Jesus Christ (Romans 7:24, Acts 16:30-31). In Christ is found all the provision for the sinful soul (1 Cor. 1:30).

Almighty God will one day remove this fallen world (1 Peter 2:7-13; 1 John 2:15-17) and create a new Heavens and a new Earth (Isaiah 65:17; Rev.21:1). Then, and only then, will all things be redeemed and in harmony with Almighty God, the Creator of all (1 Cor. 15:26-28; Rev. 21; 22:1-5).

In these last days come out of the godless ideologies of the day - religious and political - and put your sole trust in the God of Truth and Reality (2 Cor. 6:17-18)! Your hope will be sure and you will never be the same!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Ideologies, Philosophies and Biblical Reality

There are endless ideologies - political and religious - that have developed and have dominated the human race since the Babel dispersion 4,200 years ago (Genesis 10, 11:1-9). These ideologies are all rooted in the fallen humanity (i.e., inherent depravity) of man, and are ruled by his sensual nature (i.e., the five senses that govern fallen man in this physical world).

There many different varieties of color gumballs in the gumball machine, but all are made with the same basic ingredients. So also is humanity. There are many different cultures, races, religions and philosophies (i.e., “colors”) in the world but all are of Adam's fallen race (i.e., the same humanity) - Romans 3:23, 5:12. All humanity is fallen and all need the Savior! (John 3:16, 17)

Ideology
Webster’s Dictionary defines this as: 1) visionary theorizing; 2a) a systematic body of concepts especially about human life or culture; 2b) a manner or the content of thinking characteristic of an individual, group, or culture; c) the integrated assertions, theories and aims that constitute a sociopolitical program.

The countless fallen ideologies of fallen man may work to some degree in time (based on the moral laws of nature and inexplicable causes, some more than others, etc.), but they are all absolutely bankrupt for Almighty God's holy and perfect heaven in eternity (1 Cor. 6:9-11; Rev. 21:8).

Religious Ideology Definition
Religion is the spiritual philosophy or ideology that attempts to answer the basic need of the human heart, which is the longing to fill an eternal void that exists in the absence of a right relationship to its Creator. This ideology is prevalent throughout the multitudinous cultures and various societies of Adam's fallen race. All human history attests to this fact throughout the last 4,200 years since the scattering of people over all the earth after the Tower of Babel.

Political Ideology Definition
Politics is the governmental philosophy or ideology that pertains to managing the natural or physical world in which man lives. Political ideologies establish beliefs (theories) and practices to best govern man in the light of the natural and moral laws of time. Political ideologies are primarily dominated by the religious ideologies of fallen man.

Reality
As humanity develops and out-works these ideologies and philosophies in time, the eternal spiritual absolutes (truths) and natural (moral) laws of Almighty God never change, nor will they ever. That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation (Hebrews 6; 18a). For I am the LORD, I change not (Malachi 3:6a). My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips (Psalm 89:34). Almighty God and His Word can be totally relied upon.

In Romans 1:18-32 God tells us what happened after Babel and what were the end results thereof. Humanity had abandoned truth and reality for a delusion and a lie. They had replaced the righteousness of Almighty God with unrighteousness. For about 4,200 years, humanity has been out-working their godless, unrighteous ideologies and philosophies and have been reaping the consequences. The consequences and end results are vanity and death (Eccl. 1:14; Rom. 3:23). The Reality of life is that Almighty God sent His Son (John 3:16-17; Rom. 8:3-4) to redeem man and restore a right relationship between man and Himself (John 3:3-7).

Almighty God's Word states;

God is a Spirit; and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me (John 14:6).

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (John 17:17).

Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever (Psalm 119:160).

Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? To know Him is to know Reality. To know Him is to know Truth. May you be sure that your "ideology" and "reality" is rooted in the absolute reality of Almighty God and His never-changing Word. Your whole eternity depends on it.

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
