1. Was it not the vainglory of satan, which tempted Eve to disobedience? His vanity made him use God's name in vain, to further his own ideals in idolatry. In so doing becoming the anti- Christ, this represents the anti- commandment. Genesis 2: 16-17. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shalt not eat of it; for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die. Genesis 3: 4-5. And the serpent said to the woman, You shall not surely die: For God knows, that in the day you eat of it, then your eyes shall be opened; and you shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. This is the first example of using God's name in vain. Satan uses the anti- commandments in his objective, thinking that he can overcome the Lords gracious guidance to become godly himself. On the other hand, Jesus Christ regenerates the Commandments, restoring the True way of the pilgrimage unto His Heavenly Father. John 14: 6. Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth and the life; no man comes to the Father; but by me.
The difference is, satan, wants to unduly be in the position of power, whereas Christ knows that Godliness is an infinite pilgrimage in becoming, thereby insuring everlasting life. One should not prematurely think that the position of God Almighty could be attained completely. Also, understanding that this position is not; and can not be exclusively filled by anyone, due to it being a philosophical ideal (lover of wisdom to better humankind); and not an actual material existence. To eat from the tree of good and evil, would mean to know absolutely everything; and become someone whom Adam (first man) presumed to be God. Eve's persistent curiosity encouraged her to challenge this irresistible concept, which eventually brought about their disgrace. Their conscience told them not too; but their ignorance and disbelief in themselves conflicted with their first and better judgement; of not presuming that, all can be known. Hence, the desire to know it all, at the expense of what was good; notoriously inaugurated the concept of what was evil. The controversy between the two, is to this day still a challenging belief, which can only be proved by the ultimate survivors of history. The question remains, whose side does one take, the good or the evil, or a combination of both? More importantly, what distinguishes the difference? What defines good or evil? What is one man's meat may be another man's poison. Surely, that which is good for both would be the better option? Hence, the scripture, Proverbs 16: 7. When a man's ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
All that now remains is to find common ground in law making. Laws which must be respected for the common good of all humanity. Not outwardly respected, due to fearing the punishment by an individual, or an organisation; but inwardly respected for the benefits that these laws will ensure. Laws ought to be derived from the heart of every individual, without issuing a penalty if broken; breaking a law should be punishment enough. For example, if an individual contracted HIV, should they be punished for committing adultery or fornication? No, their sin in breaking the law is punishment enough. The laws should be there as a warning to the consequences of sin; and not to the benefit of the ones in power making the laws. Otherwise, it would mean that the lawmakers depended on the laws been broken. Punishment by paying materially, beating or jailing in inhuman conditions, if the offender were to be unable to pay the material penalty would enforce the hold of these unjustly laws. Hence, the scripture, Luke 6: 29. And to him that smacks you on the one cheek, offer also the other; and him that takes away your cloak, forbid not to take your coat also.
There is no difference in brutality; of legal governments or terrorizing thugs, who make laws so unbearable that eventually all become a victim to them. All historic, legal and non-legal empires have eventually expired, due to their dishonesty and corruptibility. More good can be derived in forgiving, than in executing punishment. An evil unforgiving heart is created by an evil world; and not by a society, that is forever forgiving one who has fallen short of the law. Luke 6: 37. Judge not; and you shall not be judged; condemn not; and you shall not be condemned; forgive; and you shall be forgiven. Hence, the Love of the Lord allowed the serpent, in the garden of Eden, to fulfil its desire to the point of self-destruction. Giving it the possibility of repentance, in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, the only one that fulfilled the gracious law of the regenerated commandments.
2. It is very important for elders in the church, not to compel anybody to give, what some preachers refer to as, "first fruits" (ten percent of their wages). This is to avoid losing fellowship. I must remind you what happened to Peter in Acts 5: 1-10. The compulsory giving of ten percent of one's wages is Old Testament practise; Hebrews chapter seven, Jesus Christ paid the price for all sinners who believe in Him. Religious leaders must rely on faith that the Lord will provide. They must not falsely state that the water of life is free; but the plumbing is an expense, which is compulsory to its followers. I would suggest that the priests in question - enrol in a plumber's course, so they may learn how to correctly guide the Holy Spirit freely. Yet, Jesus occupationally said, He would make us fishers of men. They must believe that through Christ all things are possible. Christ Himself said that we would find the solution in the mouth of a fish. Matthew 17: 26-27. "Against the foreigners," Peter replied. "Well, then," Jesus said, "the citizens are free! However, we don't want to offend them, so go down to the shore and throw in a line; and open the mouth of the first fish you catch. You will find a coin to cover the taxes for both of us; take it and pay them." Metaphorically speaking, fish represents deeper meaning, not milk but meaty knowledge from Christian Elders. This faithful talk is the elaborated words of Jesus, which will pay for all sins that are due for sacrifice. We are here to fulfil the Kingdom of Heaven, not to promote capitalism for the minority. Money is the root of all evil. The church must grow in faith, not on the money of a sick world. A priest can not serve two masters, God and mammon. How much can one person possibly eat and wear to preach the gospel? To the poor the gospel must be preached; and not their wealth provided for, let them go and work like everybody else has to do. If we work in love, we will work forever and be rewarded. If the people are sick, let the priest heal them first, if he can not after he has tried, what kind of a priest is he, or how faithless is that patient, if the priest refuses to heal them? Luke 7: 22. Then Jesus answering, said to them, Go and tell John what things you have seen and heard; that the blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. Priests must be faithful servants, not sly opportunists.
3. This is an elaboration to the First Four Commandments, so that it can become clearer to the reader. I must inform - that the Catholic Church has been led astray, established by Saint Augustine, regarding this matter. (Number. 2066 and 2067 of The Catechism of the Catholic Church.)
"2066. The division and numbering of the Commandments have varied in the course of history. The present catechism follows the division of the Commandments established by St. Augustine, which has become traditional in the Catholic Church. It is also that of the Lutheran confessions. The Greek Fathers worked out a slightly different division, which is found in the Orthodox Churches and Reformed communities.
2067. The Ten Commandments state what is required in the love of God and love of neighbour. The first three concern love of God, and the other seven love of neighbour.
As charity comprises the two commandments to which the Lord related the whole Law and the prophets . . . so the Ten Commandments were themselves given on two tablets. Three were written on one tablet and seven on the other."
The dispute in question refers to the number of Commandments on the First Tablet, concerning love for God; and the number of Commandments on the Second Tablet, concerning love for neighbour.
As I have explained in the chapter, The Revealing of the First Four Commandments, the First Commandment is an invitation, by the Lord, to save us from hell. The Lord proclaims His authority as saviour, responsible for delivering us out of bondage; but not out of the woods yet (wilderness), metaphorically speaking.
The First Commandment reassures the believer to continue to follow the Lord in faith, witnessed by the miracles of the ten plagues performed in Egypt; and the crossing of the Red Sea. If one refuses to believe and follow, after witnessing such miraculous deliverance, then one is guilty of sin, disobedient to the First Commandment (blessed is he who has not seen and believed). The choice of not accepting this invitation would be parabolic to going back to slavery. It is the free will of every individual - to either accept or reject this invitation from the Lord, independent of, afterwards, accepting or rejecting the Second Commandment - of not turning back, after having accepted the First Commandment. Turning to other gods can only become conscious sin if the True Lord has made Himself known, to some extent; and has been acknowledged as Lord firstly. For this reason, animals are blameless but also ignorant of eternal life; they have no concept of turning to other gods. Yet man still turns to sin; but is forgiven if he wholeheartedly repents, faithfully believing that there is a merciful Lord. In this act of repentance, he has remained faithful to the First Commandment while disobeying the Second, knowing that he remains a sinner until the infinite last day when all will be revealed, through the daily purification of his soul. If these Two Commandments were constituted as one commandment, there would be no hope of redemption; either of the two sins would amount to blaspheming against the Holy Spirit, due to the sin of turning back and disbelief in the One and only Lord - being one commandment. A sinner can always be redeemed; but for a stubborn nonbeliever there is no hope. He who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit can not be forgiven. (The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit are One)
By faithfully obeying the First Commandment, we commit ourselves to continue to follow the same Lord. If we at a later stage decide to turn away, that action would result in disobedience to the Second Commandment, of having other gods before the Lord whom saved us from bondage. Again, the result would be going back to slavery - if unrepentant.
By remaining faithful to the first two Commandments, the Third Commandment comes into effect. It would be taking the Lord's name in vain if one were to follow two masters, so to speak. We can not follow the Lord and satan; and still expect to be saved without repenting. If one were to choose to facilitate satan, then one would be falling into condemnation; the disobedience to the other Commandments would confirm this. Taking the Lord's name in vain is consciously being a hypocrite. That two minded act would not save one from hell. The First and the Second Commandments establishes a choice between Good and evil (follow the Lord or satan). The Third Commandment prevents the perversion of the First Commandment and the other Nine Commandments - as being acceptable to the Lord without being repentant. The Lord knows our deepest of hearts; all other Nine Commandments can be forgiven through repentance, except the disobedience in the First Commandment. The Lord can not save anyone who refuses to believe that He can save them.
The Fourth Commandment prevents us from totally forgetting the pilgrimage unto the Father. By observing at least one day, out of seven, for the Lord - will teach us not to forget who saved us from bondage. It also allows us the opportunity to work out all these Truths. Eventually, if we continue, we will observe every day as the Sabbath. If we forget the Sabbath, we will forget the Lord who saved us from bondage; and we will recreate bondage again, resulting in death.
In believing what has been explained above - it being Four Commandments from the First Tablet, the Second Tablet must consist of Six Commandments. The dispute arises again in the Tenth Commandment. Saint Augustine proclaimed that the Tenth Commandment is presumably the ninth and the tenth commandment, due to him proclaiming that the First and Second Commandments, explained above, is one and the first commandment. By forcing the above First and Second Commandment to be one commandment - he had no other option but to split the Tenth Commandment into two commandments.
To covet our neighbour's belongings or our neighbour's spouse is the same sin. It is a sin of a coveting heart, which can be attributed to planning anything against all Ten Commandments, which includes desiring to covet. So there is no reason to separate; coveting our neighbour's wife - as the ninth commandment; and coveting our neighbour's goods - as the tenth commandment. To plan in one's heart the anti Commandments is a sin, even if one does not carry the act through. It is dangerous to dwell mentally in sin; and can lead to actually performing that sinful act, backsliding with dreadful consequences. It also promotes sin - by wishfully thinking it, causing others to stumble in this influential evil aura of sin.
The layout of the precise order of the Ten Commandments is of utmost importance; it determines the divine accuracy in design of The New Jerusalem. To understand this spiritual plan, enforces the faith of the believer with a solid foundation. It protects the Kingdom of Heaven from moral decay, caused by flaws of inaccuracy, which results in schism, by them who have not an accurate knowledge of the Truth. It is easier for the righteous to forgive - than one, who is in deep sin, due to the fact that the faith of the righteous is more solidly built - than the faith of someone who is ignorant and confused. If one sees the light more brightly, it would be less likely that they would fall into darkness more rapidly than someone who is less informed.
The design of the Menorah; and the vision the Apostle John had - in the book of Revelation - is further evidence that the Ten Commandments are positioned - four on the one tablet and six on the other. The whole design of the Ark of Jesus, together with scripture, firmly fits together - bearing testimony of its accuracy and Truth.
The conclusion of the matter in question - is that we still sin, irrespective if we believe in the Lord, due to the fact that we do not wholeheartedly know Him. Thanks must be to Jesus Christ - that repentance of sin can only be forgiven through the sacrifice of His own Body and Blood. By turning to idols of sin, then repenting in the name of Jesus Christ - there is still hope; but by refusing to believe in the Lord and continuing to still commit idolatry - regarding the two commandments as being one commandment, what hope is there? For if the two commandments is one commandment; and a believer commits the latter part of that sin, who - will forgive? Only a Loving and merciful Lord can forgive because He knows our weaknesses. If the first two commandments is one commandment - then there is no hope; and we will all die forever without any hope of redemption. We are constant sinners, yet we cling onto the hope that we believe in the Lord to purify our hearts unto His Perfect Self. By removing that hope of believing in Him, we are condemned eternally.
I truly hope and pray that I have clarified this misunderstanding that Saint Augustine created. May his soul now rest in peace regarding this matter.
Romans 7: 25. I thank God, through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
John 8: 14-16. Jesus answered and said to them, Though I testify concerning myself, yet my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. Ye judge after the flesh, I judge no man. And yet if I judge, my judgement is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
Let Baptism; kill the fleshly desires of an evil world, so that the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ - be resurrected in its place.
1st Peter 3: 18-22. For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive by the Spirit. By which also he went and preached to the spirits in prison; who formerly were disobedient, when once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was preparing, in which few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water. The like figure to which, even baptism, does also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh; but the answer of a good conscience towards God) - by the resurrection of Jesus Christ - who is gone into heaven and is on the right hand of God - angels, authorities and powers being made subject to him.
1st Peter 4: 1-11. Forasmuch then as Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind - for he that has suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin - that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh, to the lusts of men - but to the will of God. For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revelling, banqueting and abominable idolatries - In which they think it strange that you run not with them to the same excess of riot; speaking evil of you - who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead. For, for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. But the end of all things is at hand; be ye therefore sober, and watch to prayer. Above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity will cover a multitude of sins. Use hospitality one to another without grudging. As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If any man speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man ministers, let him do it as of the ability which God gives - that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ; to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
James 2: 7-11. Do they not blaspheme that worthy name by which you are called? If you fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, "You shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," you do well - but, if you show partiality, you commit sin - and are convicted by the law as transgressors. For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not kill." Now if you commit no adultery, yet if you kill, you have become a transgressor of the law.
4. There have been many debates in reference to Paul's letter of recommendation to the Romans. The sensitive debate, quite frequently, argumentatively arises - whether the obedience to the Ten Commandments is the means to salvation - or were they nailed to the cross.
I must begin this explanation with the verses of Romans 10: 14-17. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? How shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? How shall they hear without a preacher? How shall they preach, except they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things? However, they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah said, Lord, who has believed our report? So then, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. In the above verses, it is quite clear that faith comes from believing the Word of God. Confirming the Lord's knowledge strengthens our faith and will bring us unto His perfect self.
There are four stages to Paul's letter.
Firstly, Paul professes to the practise of the Ten Commandments. Romans 2: 13. For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. With this profession he later expresses that some people think it is good to sin, which shows God's grace. Romans 3: 5. " But, " some say, " our breaking faith with God is good, our sins serve a good purpose, for people will notice how good God is when they see how bad we are. Is it fair, then, for Him to punish us when our sins are helping Him?" (That is the way some people talk). Paul explains later in chapter 5 verse 20 and 21, the reality of God's grace. The Ten Commandments were given so that all could see the extent of their failure to obey God's laws. But the more we see our sinfulness, the more we see God's abounding grace forgiving us. Before, sin ruled over all men and brought them to death - but now God's kindness rules instead, giving us right standing with God and resulting in eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Secondly, Paul expresses that it is impossible to keep the commandments without faith in Jesus Christ, which means coming and believing the knowledge of His Word. Romans 3: 20-24. Now do you see it? No one can ever be made right in God's sight by doing what the law commands. For more we know of God's laws, the clearer it becomes that we aren't obeying them; His laws serves only to make us see that we are sinners. But now God has shown us a different way to heaven - not by "being good" and trying to keep His laws - but by a new way (though not new, really, for the scriptures told it long ago). Now God says He will accept and acquit us - declare us "not guilty" - if we trust Jesus Christ to take away our sins. And we all can be saved in this same way, by coming to Christ, no matter who we are or what we have been like. Yes, all have sinned; all fall short of God's glorious ideals; yet now God declares us "not guilty" of offending Him if we trust in Jesus Christ, who in His kindness freely takes away our sins. Romans 3: 31. Well then, if we are saved by faith, does this mean that we no longer need obey God's laws? Just the opposite! In fact, only when we trust Jesus can we truly obey Him. We are saved by faith in Jesus Christ to send the Holy Spirit, which will strengthen our capacity to fulfil the Commandments. Romans 4: 11-12. It wasn't until later on, after God had promised to bless him because of his faith, that he was circumcised. The circumcision ceremony was a sign that Abraham already had faith and that God had already accepted him and declared him just and good in His sight - before the ceremony took place. So Abraham is the spiritual father of those who believe and are saved without obeying Jewish laws. We see, then, that those who do not keep these rules are justified by God through faith. And Abraham is also the spiritual father of those Jews who have been circumcised. They can see from his example - that it is not this ceremony that saves them, for Abraham found favour with God by faith alone, before he was circumcised. Romans 8: 4. So now, we can obey God's laws if we follow the Holy Spirit and no longer obey the old evil nature within us. Romans 5: 5. Then, when that happens, we are able to hold our heads high no matter what happens and know that all is well, for we know how dearly God loves us. We feel this warm love everywhere within us because God has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with His love.
Thirdly, In Romans Chapter 6, Paul explains that God's grace is no excuse to continue in sin. Sin's power over us is broken in baptism, verse 2-3. Of course not! Should we keep on sinning when we don't have to? For sin's power over us was broken when we became Christians and were baptized to become part of Jesus Christ; through His death the power of your sinful nature was shattered. In verse 6, Paul says that our sinful nature was nailed to the cross, not the Commandments, as so many people seem to think. Your old evil desires were nailed to the cross with Him. That part of you that loves to sin was crushed and fatally wounded, so that your sin-loving body is no longer under sin's control, no longer needs to be a slave to sin. For when you are deadened to sin, you are freed from all its allure and its power over you. Important next verse 15-18. Does this mean that now we can go ahead, sin and not worry about it? (For our salvation does not depend on keeping the law, but on receiving God's grace!) Of course not! Don't you realize that you can choose your own master? You can choose sin (with death) or else obedience (with acquittal). The one to whom you offer yourself - He/he will take you and be your master and you will be His/his slave. Thank God that though you once chose to be slaves to sin, now you have obeyed with all your heart the teaching to which God has committed you. And now you are free from your old master, sin; and you have become slaves to your new master, righteousness. Paul continues to explain that The Ten Commandments are good. Romans 7: 7-12. Well then, am I suggesting that these laws of God are evil? Of course not! No, the law is not sinful but it was the law that showed me my sin. I would never have known the sin in my heart - evil desires that are hidden there - if the law had not said, "You must not have evil desires in your heart." But sin used this law against evil desires by reminding me that such desires are wrong and arousing all kinds of forbidden desires within me! Only if there were no laws to break would there be no sinning. That is why I felt fine so long as I did not understand what the law really demanded. But when I learned the truth, I realized that I had broken the law and was a sinner, doomed to die. So as far as I was concerned, the good law which was supposed to show me the way of life resulted instead in my being given a death penalty. Sin fooled me by taking the good laws of God and using them to make me guilty of death. But still, you see, the law itself was wholly right and good. We need to trust in our Lord Jesus Christ to send the Holy Spirit, to fill us with His Word. That in turn will kill our sinful nature, which is keeping us in sin. By allowing Jesus Christ to become our Housemaster, the evil spirit that occupied our souls will leave, becoming a new person in righteousness, all becoming part of Jesus Christ's Body. Romans 7: 6 and 13 and 21-25. Romans 8: 24. Romans 10: 8 and 13. Romans 12: 4-5. By not accepting Jesus Christ who was the perfect sacrifice, our sins will continue. By giving a sacrifice of meat, grain, money or punishment for our sins - will not take away the desire to sin. Man shall not live by bread alone, but by the Word of the Lord, Matthew 4: 4. The Lords perfect Word is the only bread that can fill our minds with faith to withstand the powers of evil. John 6: 35, 41, 48, 50, 51 and 58. No other sacrifice or punishment can remove sin, which is why prisoners tend to repeat crime if not taught in the Lord.
Fourthly, Paul professes that by keeping the Ten Commandments, you are professing that you are a true Christian. Romans 13: 9. If you love your neighbour as much as you love yourself, you will not want to harm or cheat, kill or steal from him. And you won't sin with his wife or want what is his, or do anything else the Ten Commandments say is wrong. All ten are wrapped up in this one, to love your neighbour as you love yourself. Paul's message in 1st Corinthians 7: 19. For it doesn't make any difference at all whether a Christian has gone through this ceremony or not. But it makes a lot of difference whether he is pleasing God and keeping God's Commandments. That is the important thing.
5. 1st Peter 3: 17. For it is better, if the will of God is so, that you suffer for well-doing, than for evil-doing.
You may well ask what does this verse mean. In reference to the Church of Thyatira, regarding sexual sin - some priests and other people - who see themselves as leaders in society, openly proclaim that contraception is not sinful. Instead of teaching people to abstain from sex, reserving that fruitful act for procreation, they teach it is a sweet and necessary need, as common as brushing ones teeth. In so teaching, abusing that act to idolatry of the flesh. As result, life-threatening diseases such as HIV and AIDS have developed, becoming that perverted act's fruitage. Due to a bad conscience, those same priests and leaders then project themselves in the media as toiling angels of mercy, piloting anti AIDS campaigns; and further promoting condom use. They do not realize that what they are in fact suffering in their toil, is the fruits of their evil-doings. There is no glory in cleaning up ones own mess. The Lord finds no pleasure in people who suffer whilst they are cleaning up their own evil mess.
On the other hand, the Lord finds much pleasure in people who remain faithful through all adversaries. In them who keep their bodies clean (Temple of the Lord), clean in obedience to the Commandments. In them who toil by professing the Truth; and who shows mercy to them that repent in Christ Jesus. Glory can only go to them who labour for the sins of their repentant fellow. In that loving act, the Lord finds much pleasure. This does not mean that repentant evil doers leave their cleaning up - to good doers; it means that evil doers must clean up their mess in humility, without blowing their own trumpet whilst they are doing it. Cleaning up is a penance that must be done to rectify the wrongs done against the Lord's good plans for humanity. Yet, how many countries celebrate victoriously when they prematurely presume to win war battles? They think they have done a good deed towards humanity, killing each other in revenge attacks, suffering much loss of life to their own nations as a result. To the Good Lord it is not pleasing. The loss suffered is due to unforgiveness, deserved as a direct consequence of their actions. To live by the sword eventually means to die by the sword. 1st Peter 2: 20. For what glory is it, if, when you are buffeted for your faults, you bear it patiently? but if, when you do well, and suffer for it, you bear it patiently, this is acceptable with God. Matthew 26: 52. Then said Jesus to him, Put up again thy sword into its place: for all they that take the sword, shall perish by the sword.
Love on the other hand is eternal, more precious than diamonds that wear down if put to practical use.
Geneses 2:24, Matthew 19:5-6, Mark 10:8. Husband and wife shall become one flesh.
6. Spiritual oneness.
In the Kingdom of God we all take up space which in total forms the Temple of God .
God dwells amongst His people. To explain it in simple terms just imagine that each person represents a cube that constitutes the Temple. When the time is right God's Holy Spirit brings together two soul mates (male and female) they become one person in this temple.
So how can two people become one person in God's Kingdom and grow spiritualy infinitely? If they remain just one set cube there is no room to grow, just like the blocks of stone that make up the pyramids of Egypt. So how does God allow us room to grow and expand infinitely to fulfill His Kingdom? The reason why it's important to expand infinitely is because many civilizations have tried and have all crumbled in their attempt to survive. Their ideals were not infinite but rather a selfish one.
So below I will explain how it is possible for a civilization to grow infinitely with the right ideology in place.
We all may know what a cube with a value of one is, it is just one cube, but what is one? To find the answer a cube has to be divided into 1000 equal cubes, that is 10x10x10. As a single person everyone begins their journey as one cube in the Kingdom of God , which when divided equals 1000 smaller cubes.
What happens now is that the 1000 cubes are divided into two, 500 + 500. The cube root of 500 is 7.937005... to infinity for both sets of 500 cubes, please note that the decimal place is moved up one place to make it less confusing to understand. To make infinite room to grow a part of both sets of the cube root 7.937005... must be given back to God in Trust so that what remains is a whole cube, that being two cubes with a value of 7 each. Therefore the .937005... is returned to God.
You will understand why this is so important to realize infinity and space to grow in the next few steps.
A cube of 7 means that the length, high and width containes 7 x 7 x 7 = 343 smaller cubes. The next step is to wrap the 343 smaller cubes from the one set of 7 around the other whole cube of 7, by doing this the cube can grows infinitely, so the cube root of 686 is 8.81944734926411215337047425094... now you just bring the decimal place back to get the true figure of point .881944734926411215337047425094...to infinity. Now, there is infinite space to grow between the original cube with the value of 1 and this smaller cube within, with the value of point .881944734926411215337047425094... to infinity. This creates infinite space between each whole cube assigned to each single person or marriege union (see diagram here expaining the gap in square root of 2). This infinite space is part of the Holy Spirit which is throughout the New Jerusalem.
An easier way to calculate and understand the cube root of 686 which is the two sets of 343 cubes from the two whole cubes of 7 is just to multiply the cube root of 2, which is 1.25992104989487316476721060727... to infinity by 7 or .7 to accurately show the result, decimal point .881944734926411215337047425094... to infinity. See how to calculate and understand the Cube root of two.
If the two sets of 500 cubes equaling 1000 cubes, which is the original one larger cube, were left as it was then there would not be any room to grow spiritualy, neither would there be an omnipresent Holy Spirit around the people of God that would provide the spiritual growth. So by growing we get closer and closer to God as illustrated here. Draw close to God and He will draw close to you. James 4:8. The space inbetween is the river of life that flows through the Kingdom providing the nourishment to the 12 kind of trees producing 12 crops of fruit and the leaves a healing of the nations. The 12 kind of trees is the 12 tribes of Israel, and the leaves is the written word. Back in Jesus time they still wrote on papyrus leaves Revelation 22:2.
That is how a single person grows spiritualy closer to the Lord. Now I'll explain how married couples become one person in marriage and grow spiritualy closer to the Lord.
This is realized in a similar way as the single person except that each partner in the marriage, male and female are restored to their original cube of 1000 smaller cubes each, Then each of the two whole cubes are divided again so that the couple have four sets of 500 smaller cubes. Now one sets of 500 smaller cubes from each of the couple who are about to be married are cube rooted, the result being two larger cubes with a value of 7 each and two sets of remaiders with a value of .937005... each. The remainder together with the other two sets of unrooted 500 smaller cubes is contributed back in God's trust to propagate the children. So each of the couple is now a cube of 7. The male in the relationship is the one that God uses to cover his bride's perfect whole cube of 7 just as in the single person's calculations explained above. The difference is that the couple become one whole body in union through the Holy Spirit and the single person one whole body in union through the Holy Spirit. Happy families made joyful by God though the Holy Spirit. This may give a new meaning to cubism, cuba and cubans.
It is the will of God that we become fruitful and fill the earth, however it needs to be done in faith of the seven churches, which is the light to our souls. By keeping faithful and true, the calculations can continue in our spiritual growth--by repenting if or when we sin, God can continue with the accurate calculations in keeping up the growth so we can grow closer to godliness. As you may now understand the expansion and fulfillment of the cube can only continue if the calculations are perfectly accurate so no gaps are made to corrupt and stop the journey to God. God will not have any part in our sins for if He does He would be guilty of them.
For example if a couple commit adultory or a single person commits fornication how can the calculations add up to what they suppose to be, a perfect cube. If they are now mixing cubes with the wrong person other than their spouse, who are on different spiritual growth levels in the calculations the figures will not add up correctly and the cube will crumble. Once you understand how the calculations (cube root) are done you will understand what I mean. Sin disrupts this Holy procedure because God has no part in sin. Revelation 2:22. 2nd Peter 2:14. James 2:11. Galatians 5:19. Romens 2:22. Luke 16:18-20. Mark 10:11-12+19. Matthew 5:27-28+32 also 19:9. Repent and God will forgive if we repent with an honest heart, only He knows our deepest of heart. Let God be the judge because only He knows how to correct us in our spiritual growth in making all things good again.
Humans with all their knowledge and help with computers can not accomplish this in a perfect way, in which God can, how to calculate the Cube root of two in an omniscient way. All we do know is that it is infinite as God is infinite and His Kingdom as well. It's not about the size of the cube that matter but the process that is important, it's not the destination but the journey to God that is important. So don't be in a hurry enjoy the honest process, it's going to be a long and narrow happy road of joy. For wide and disgracefully short is the way to destruction if one is messing up and does not have faith to repent. Proverbs 10:27+29. Psalms 102:23. Job 20:5. Matthew 7:13. Luke 13:24. There is only one sin that can not be forgiven and that is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, which is total disbelief in the only power that can save one. Mark 3:28-29. Jesus told us He would send the Holy Spirit, if we reject it, it will be the short and wide road to destruction.
I mentioned above that it's not the size of the cube that matters but the process of growing closer to God is. There is another reason for believing that size is not the goal, and that is that the New Jerusalem has a finite set number of cubes in its construction, other than the infinite Holy Spirit and the White House of Jesus Christ who are the departed in Christ, with whom we will be reunited on Christ's return. The 686 cubes as stated above can represent a long line of family members each being one cube within the original cube where the whole process is recalculated as above with every cube. So in fact each original cube in the contruction of the New Jerusalem can become another galaxy or univerce. If we are to live forever we will need the infinite space of the cosmos. For example to humans one metre is 100 centimetre but to an ant one meter is about one of our millimetre, our measured dimension relative to an ant is the same, one metre--hence the scripture 2nd Corinthians 8:15. Exodus 16:18.
7. There is God and there is a creation. The creation is the visible part of God we call light. Before God created the light He was darkness, through His creation He emerged from the darkness. The darkness back then was not evil because good did not exist, nothing existed other than God's thought by His Spirit. His desire was and is still today to become brighter still in all His Glory. Well you may ask is God not already omnipotent, yes He is but that does not stop Him in becoming greater still. There is no other God to compete with Him so there is no competition to become greater. He is becoming greater out of love for Himself who is His creation. Growth in the light stops decay, which is backsliding.
The moment He created the
first kindle image of Himself—the light—He at the same
time became good. There was then the possibility of evil to exist
which is backsliding back into the darkness. The moment God created
the light which is good the possibility was there for the light to
be switched off again which is the concept of evil. There is a
tremendous gap between the darkness and the light and we who are the
light have this constant tendency to want to know the darkness
because we only know the light. God on the other hand knows both the
darkness and the light. God never goes back into the darkness but we
who are the light have the free will to choose if we want to be
God's loyal subjects and continue in God's light or become evil and
return to the darkness. Evil just means returning to the darkness.
We can never return to the full extent of darkness because it
will become too unbearable for us, which is hell. That does not stop
us from trying but God knows we can never succeed, He allows the
will of the light to experience evil so that the light can
understand it can never succeed and therefore will continue in the
light.
The reason why we have free will is because we don't know God, we can only have faith in God, which means believing in God without fully knowing Him. How can we fully know God when we don't know the darkness nor do we know the full extent of God's brightness. Whatever brightness we may know God knows more. So because we don't know God we can not blame God for the predestination caused by His omniscience. Faith in God does not prove God exists, it is just a belief without knowing the existance of God. This gives us “who are the light” the concept that we have a free will to choose between good or evil, continue in the infinite greatness of the light or return to the infinite depth of darkness.
So just because we may
believe in God does not give us the reason to blame Him for the
choices we make, if or when we choose to pursue the darkness. We are
God's creation “the Light” therefore we are the best
part of God which excludes the darkness and for that reason also we
have free will just like God has free will being a part of Him. It's
a simple concept really, we are part of God's body let us not become
cancerous, every cell has a free will to grow well for the benefit
of the whole body or rebel and become cancerous to bring the body
down where both cancer and body will burn in hell—the cancer
will burn—be surgically removed—not God's body because
God's body has immunity, it immerged from darkness. God has made
thoughtful surgical provision for this by the way of hell. If we
choose the darkness we create our own hell, God never created hell
we create it if we choose to pursue it by backsliding.
The
prohibition to take the apple in the garden of Eden represented the
darkness and we should never backslide to try to be like God. Only
God has this knowledge of being the darkness. God was never evil
even when He was alone in the darkness because the light did not
exist then. He was just a thought in the darkness and He emerged
from it, so God was never evil. Only we who are the light and who
try to go back to darkness become evil because we lose faith in God
and stop being God's loyal subjects by pursuing the darkness.
We must let God give
us the prohibited fruit not take it ourselves because we don't know
how to digest it. Only God can present it to us in a fruitful way
for the benefit of the greater light.
This is why Abel was
killed by his brother Cain. Abel did everything good for the light
and Cain chose to pursue the darkness to the point that he killed
his brother so that the light
could be extinguished.
However the light can never be
extinguished, it can only be removed from where the pursue of
darkness is. Darkness is the absence of light, at any point those
who have chosen to pursue the darkness can repent and turn towards
the light again. The light may seem far just like when we look up in
the nights sky and see the stars far away.
The light who is God's loyal subject can never be destroyed because they are who God wants them to be and have remained faithful to Him. So God has no part in evil those who where the light have chosen to become dark or evil not God. God made the light but the light can choose to be extinguished as far as they can bear. It will become very unbearable for them because light is life and darkness is an endless death in hell. We can be born again—meaning—we as the light can experience death by sinking into darkness but can be reborn by accepting God's light again. God the Father through His Spirit emerged from His darkness and became His Son who is the Light of the Universe, we all are THIS LIGHT if we choose to follow Him.
So did God create evil? We who are the light and choose to backslide create evil and we who are part of God the Father are responsible for the evil we create. God the Father and His Spirit are not responsible for our backsliding simply because our faith in God can not prove God exists. This is how God can allow us to believe in free will so that we can share in His creation, God remains anonymous by His Omniscience. God's desire is for the light to become like Him so that we can become fully aware that we are Him. God became man so that man may become God. Only a God can know God, which is what God wants. Then we will know for sure it was our will all along.
