Where did we come from? Here is a topic that deals with several beginnings.
There is a physical body, and there is a separate living soul.
Science attempts to explain the physical origin of man from a single celled animal. But when it comes to the origin of consciousness, it has nothing to plagiarize.
In an attempt to explain things, science is both educated and confounded by that which already exists. It is ironic that science is a copy of things that it can only recreate best.
It creates nothing. And yet we trust the trial and error over the obvious nature of the original.
Science discounts anything that it cannot prove as an accident. Yet it constantly makes revisions and retractions to its very foundation.
In a dark and godless world, we are educated to believe that life was an accident. Not one accident, but trillions of accidents that continue to reproduce a better version than the predecessor.
As an example, did the eye evolve? The eye does not produce light; it is a perceiver of light. And every creature in the light can see it.
What accident had to occur for the eye to determine that the natural state of light is incoherent?
In order to interpret light correctly, it must become focused.
Even more astonishingly, the eye automatically and instantly refocuses when looking at objects with different distances The perception of distance can only be measured with a pair of eyes in binocular vision.
Consider the unique consciousness of every human, which is also private and sovereign. Consciousness defines and establishes who we are. More than living clay, we are living souls.
I Submit that each and every one of us is in our own parallel universe, making a unique interpretation of creation.
Where did the ability to conceive the heavens come from?
This is more metaphysical than any other topic and demands more than a mere scientific explanation.
My belief is deeply rooted in the creationist view of reality. It is the bedrock foundation of my belief system.
Unlike astrophysics and advanced mathematics, the origin of humankind is revealed through a documented history. The book of Genesis gives an account of man’s creation. This is the perspective into the purpose of man.
After six days, God rested from all that he had created. Thus, every one of us, we are living souls, which had been created by the end of the sixth day.
This is supported by the references made to those whose names were written in the Lamb’s book of life before the foundation of the world.
It was when God separated the light from the darkness that he separated good from evil.
This was no trivial event. We were all there. We all witnessed his glory and saw his face.
For God is light and in him there is no darkness at all.
God created evil, but it was born in the darkness of the free will of the heart.
Isaiah fourteen records the birth of evil
How have you fallen from heaven, o day star, son of the dawn? You have been cut down to the ground, o destroyer of nations.
You said in your heart, “I will ascend to the heavens. I will raise my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the Mount of Assembly in the far reaches of the North.
I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will make myself like the most high.
But no, you will be brought down to hell, to the lowest depths of the pit.
Lucifer, in his pride, thought of himself more highly than he ought. Choosing himself to be a worthy mate for God, he challenged God by elevating himself, giving birth to pride.
This is where the light was separated from the darkness as good was separated from evil. One third of the heavenly hosts were deceived by the beauty of Lucifer.
Why was Lucifer not struck down by God?
So certain is God that his plan will withstand any test. He accepted that challenge. In order to be the king of kings and the lord of lords, God must utterly defeat evil.
Lucifer sought in his own self-worth to be joined with God.
It has become clear through the message of creation that God cannot be joined to another until imperfection, until the imperfection of disobedience is resolved.
The free will of every soul created is sovereign, but not preeminent. Each one of us endured that first estate, witnessing the rebellion with a determinate outcome.
From the beginning before the foundation of the earth, by our own free will, we made a choice. We were either marked in the Lamb’s book of life or doomed to the lake of fire.
By the grace of God, before the final judgment, every one of us will be retested through this trial in the flesh.
Here in this lifetime, our hidden eternal status is revealed. We are either wheat or tares.
Born in the flesh without the knowledge of God or our past, our prehistoric status is preserved. We are delivered into our destiny through our own free will.
God himself, through Jesus Christ, and Lucifer through the Antichrist, will have lived a life on this earth.
Each living soul in the flesh will be found to be either for or against Jesus Christ.
In his grace, God gave us life. In his mercy, he granted us a lifetime to prove our nature.
Because none of us are perfect, we all fail this test. He makes us worthy by accepting his ransom payment and receiving his forgiveness.
I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember them.
God knows each of us intimately.
He has withheld the knowledge of our first estate from us so that our choice remains free as we are tested by fire.
All disobedience against God has been purchased and nailed to a cross.
By your word, you are justified, and by your word, you are condemned.
Confess that Jesus Christ is the son of God who died to pay for your failure. Turn away from your sins and you will be saved from the wrath to come.
