What If ….

Isaiah 64:4 For since the beginning of the world men have
not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside
thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

We will now take a fanciful leap into our HEADLINE and drill
down on what human eyes have not seen and man’s ears have not heard, things
that never entered man’s heart to ponder.
So fasten your seat belt and let’s ride!
Have you ever wondered about what it means to be a “child of
God”? Accept the spirit reality, all men
created are the sons and daughters of the Most High God. Men have been curious about what is really
happening in this world, and we speculate about the hereafter. Many today do not have a grasp on their
heritage. As spirit children of the Father
we have His immortal spirit-DNA quality of being eternal beings “created in His
image and likeness”. We have seen the
death of the human body (clay mold), but we cannot see what really
happens. The living spirit son or
daughter spirit is redeemed and re-made (reborn) upstairs (in Heaven) into the
glory of angelic children. Even that
fact is too much for many human minds to concede and grasp. But it is true anyway despite the doubts of
the darkened human mind.
We have been told that we, the children, are God’s
stars. We are children of light, little
images of the Great Light (the Father), who shines brighter than the sun. From modern science we have learned that our earthly sun is a distant star, one of millions and millions in our
universe. It is hot, bright and fiery
with a huge mass that is so much bigger than the Earth. Are you ready to speculate?
And what do you suppose we will be doing for eternity? Will we be singing, praising and dancing in a
never-ending party all the time? I don’t
think so. Exactly WHAT do we inherit that
never entered out heart, our eyes have not seen, which has never been told to
man? You who read the GOOD NEWS are
fortunate because you are the first to read this.
It is written that, “You are gods and all of you are
children of the Most High”. When Jesus
was going back home, he told the disciples, “In my Father’s house are many
mansions” and “I go away to prepare a place for you”. Let’s deal with “mansions”. We see in our minds that a mansion is a very
large and lavish estate house. But
“mansions” is Sion’s man or Mother’s
sons. So in Heaven the Heavenly
Hosts are our glorified (angelic) brothers and sisters. You cannot count their numbers because they
are truly God’s stars. Jesus was telling
us that our family above is exceedingly huge!
He said he is preparing a place for us.
We have learned that in the cosmos the stars are constantly undergoing a
metamorphosis of exploding in supernovas and regenerating new stars from star
dust. This is the process by which God
creates the matter (chemistry) that is star dust. All the elements in the periodic table are
derived through this process. There may
be new chemicals on distant stars that do not exist on earth. A real scientist would love to get his hands
on some of them and test their properties.
Even today as I write the stars are still preparing new places for residence.
What did I just say? Will we each
inherit a star or a planet for a residence?
As you know, “all that exists” is God.
He is so HUGE and indescribable that the cosmos is within Him. We live within Him and even so, He has called
the planet Earth “my footstool”. So we
actually live inside His foot. But He
has taken a form that pleases Him so we can see Him and appreciate Him as our
Father-Creator. That super-bright Light
resides in the Headquarters of the Highest Heaven. We look like Him having a head, torso, arms
with hands, and legs with feet. Our
spirits while in the flesh have our true glory masked so that as long as we are
in clay bodies our light will not be seen.
Jesus has been gone from the earth for more than 2000 years and during
that time stars have been preparing to be gift “places” for God’s sons and
daughters. How can you be sure,
John?! We will go to the beginning in
the Garden of Eden “pattern”.
Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image,
after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and
over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over
every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his
own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and
replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the
earth. 29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which
is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of
a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. 30 And to every beast of the
earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the
earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it
was so. 31 An God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.
And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Adam was given a whole planet to live on and to play
on. It was his to explore, enjoy and
build structures on from the resources found in and on it. God also gave him a mate for a companion
named Eve. This was Adam’s PATTERN HERITAGE, an example of
the goodness that we can anticipate from God.
We have seen the kinds of things that we can do with the resources found
on this planet. During the human tenure
on the earth-stage, we have gone from stone-age culture to the affluence and
excitement of the technology age. We
have gone from walking to space fight even to the moon and back. This is what it means to inherit the earth
and to subdue it.
How many times have you read in the Bible that we are God’s
stars? It has very great meaning. Adam was just a pattern son to show us what
we can expect from our Father-Creator.
The STARS are our heritage, home worlds for each male-female pair to
dwell upon and to subdue. When we are
each given possession of our home-house-star, we will need an eternal life to
explore it, subdue it and make use of the resources upon it. You will not need a sun for light because you
and your mate will shine brighter than the sun we see in our sky and together
you will light up the place. This will
be a tangible, physical gift for you and your companion. What you will do with it during your eternal
life is yet to be seen.
Lucifer and Babylon
screwed up while they were residents in Heaven.
They never gave themselves time to learn about the Creator and discover
His great goodness. They and their
offspring lost out on having a star all to themselves. Jealousy, hatred and envy are serious
character flaws that led them to sin, warfare, judgment, and destruction. They will not be a part of our future
life. Father will erase them with fire
and ban the memory of their existence to oblivion.
Now that this thought has entered your heart and you have
read this idea with your eyes, you have something to think about and discuss
with your fellows. This is what it means
“to learn of God”!
Isaiah 42:16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they
knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make
darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do
unto them, and not forsake them.
Isaiah 40:12 Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of
his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the
earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a
balance? 13 Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being his counsellor
hath taught him? 14 With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and
taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him
the way of understanding?
Isaiah 45:3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness,
and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD,
which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.
Psalm 91:14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore
will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. 15
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I
will deliver him, and honour him. 16 With long life will I satisfy him, and
shew him my salvation.
Glorify god!
God did it!
