Have you ever

Have you ever, thought that the world is out to destroy you?

  Well I have news for you, it is not the world who wants to destroy you. The entity that wants to destroy you is evil. In the darkness lurks a spirit determined to keep you from, the most loving as well as only God available for you.

  This evil was an angel that used his pride to believe he could become God, he led two thirds of the angels in a revolt against God. He was cast out of heaven and down to earth, He then set out to condemn God through his creation. (Genesis 3:1) He used the serpent to entice the image of God to believe they too could be like Gods by knowing good and evil. How sad that the knowledge of good and evil, allowed the image of God to see how they failed God (Genesis 3:5-15). But because God loved his creation so much, he gave even Adam and Eve a way to forgiveness. Through Sacrifice of Animals the spilling of animal blood (Genesis 3:21) when God made leather clothing for Adam and Eve, showing them how to do this. This was continued by the son of Adam (Abel, Genesis 4:3-5), as well as Cain Who did not follow the correct procedure, when he brought his sacrifice to God. Evil then had his way with Cain, causing Cain to Kill his brother Able (the first murder) God placed a mark on Cain forever as well as a curse on anyone who killed Cain. God who loved Cain despite the Murder of Able, did not put him to death but cursed him to wander the earth homeless never finding peace. The God in heaven loved all but was separated by the Sin of Man, what would God do to bring Man back. After several years 2000 he had to squelch his anger with how evil Man had become, but he did not want to destroy the work he began. How would God do this? He searched for a family that would meet his standard, righteousness through belief, he found Noah. Noah believed God, God counted this as a new beginning, God had Noah build an ark. This allowed God to start the creation over, however this would not be enough God had to do something about sin. A plan had been set forth to save all of creation from the evil that infected it. Through 2000 years this plan finally came to fruition, A Child born to a virgin Mary, to whom she would give the name JESUS which means (the lord saves). This Gift of his only Son to the Image of God, would not be without trial. Jesus was Crucified (sacrificed on a tree to cover all who believed, in Jesus). A once and for all sacrifice to cover the image of God, allowing anyone in the image of God to become a child of God through belief in and through Jesus. Can you imagine what evil did next, evil set forth to convince all who would listen, not to believe in the saving Grace of God through his Son Jesus. Evil does this in so many ways, but the greatest is the idea that you don’t need forgiveness you have done nothing wrong. Here is one fact, deep in your mind, your heart, and your gut you know good and evil, and you know you have done wrong. Even you who, by Adam where given the knowledge of good and evil, know what sin is, you are separated from a Father who would care for you in your deepest need. Evil does not want you to see the truth of good and evil, evil wants you to continue to believe you are ok. That there is no sin, which is the greatest lie ever told, because if you don’t listen to yourself you will not see through the lie, that feeling deep in your gut calling to you to listen, this is God calling out for you to see Jesus as your savior, freeing you from your sin. Use this moment to get sin free accept Jesus as your lord and savior. It’s not that hard, first believe, then receive, ask the lord Jesus to come into your heart. A simple prayer (God I know that I am a sinner, I ask for your forgiveness, please Lord Jesus come into my heart) God will answer that prayer.
