HAVE YOU, CHILD OF GOD, EVER WONDERED WHY GOD CREATED YOU? DO YOU THINK THAT GOD CREATED YOU TO BE A SALESMAN, OR A TEACHER, OR A DOCTOR? THE BIBLE, THE WRITTEN WORD OF GOD TELLS US WHY GOD CREATED US. GOD CREATED US TO GIVE HIM PLEASURE. THE FOUR, AND TWENTY ELDERS THAT SIT BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD SAID THESE WORDS.

Rv:4:11: Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. (KJV)

YOU WERE CREATED CHILDREN OF GOD, TO GIVE GOD PLEASURE. NOW THE NEXT QUESTION BELOVED IS, DO YOU BELIEVE THAT YOUR LIFE IS GIVING GOD PLEASURE. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GIVE GOD PLEASURE, SAY SOMETHING NICE ABOUT HIS SON, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. ANOTHER WAY TO GIVE GOD PLEASURE IS TO KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS. IN THESE VERSES OF SCRIPTURE JESUS CHRIST IS SPEAKING, AND HE SAYS THESE WORDS RECORDED IN,

Jn:14:11: Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

Jn:14:12: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Jn:14:13: And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Jn:14:14: If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

Jn:14:15: If ye love me, keep my commandments.

THERE ARE SEEMINGLY MULTITUDES OF MEN THAT BELIEVE IN THE DOCTRINE OF EVOLUTION. THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY EVOLVED FROM A LOWER FORM SUCH AS A MONKEY, OR APE. SOME MEN BELIEVE IN THE DOCTRINE OF THE BIG BANG THEORY. BUT AS FOR ME, I BELIEVE THE BIBLE ACCOUNT OF CREATION. I BELIEVE THAT IN THE BEGINNING OF CREATION, GOD THE FATHER CREATED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, HIS BLESSED SON. JESUS CHRIST WAS THE BEGINNING OF CREATION. JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY GOD EVER FORMED, OR EVER SHALL BE FORMED.

Is:43:10: Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

Is:43:11: I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.

IN THE BEGINNING OF CREATION GOD THE FATHER SPOKE, AND HE TOOK HIS WORD, AND HE SHAPED IT, AND FORMED IT IN SUCH A WAY, THAT THE WORD OF GOD, BECAME THE SON OF GOD.

Jn:1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (KJV)

JESUS CHRIST WAS THE FIRST BORN OF EVERY CREATURE. WHAT IS A CREATURE? A "CREATURE" IS SOMETHING THAT WAS CREATED.

Col:1:15: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: (KJV)

TO BE A FATHER YOU MUST PRODUCE A CHILD, TO BE A SON, YOU MUST HAVE A FATHER. GOD THE FATHER CREATED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. JESUS IS THE FIRST BORN OF EVERY CREATURE. WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD? EVERY ONE THAT BELIEVES THAT JESUS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD, IS BORN OF GOD.

1Jn:4:15: Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. (KJV)

ANY MAN THAT DOES NOT BELIEVE IN BOTH GOD THE FATHER, AND JESUS CHRIST THE SON, IS NOT A CHRISTIAN AT ALL THEY ARE ANTICHRIST.

1Jn:2:22: Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. (KJV)

GOD THE FATHER, BY JESUS THE CHRIST, CREATED ALL THINGS VISIBLE, AND INVISIBLE. TO GIVE YOU SOME IDEA OF THE POWER OF JESUS CHRIST, JESUS CREATED THE SUN, AND THE MOON, AND THE STARS, AND PLACED THEM IN SPACE IN ONE DAY.

Eph:3:9: And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: (KJV)

JESUS CHRIST CREATED ALL MANKIND, AND PLACED THEM IN ADAM IN ONE DAY.

Gn:2:7: And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

WHY DID GOD CREATE WOMAN? GOD COULD SEE THAT IT WAS NOT GOOD FOR MAN TO BE ALONE. THEREFORE, GOD CREATED WOMAN TO BE A HELP MEET TO MAN.

Genesis:2:18: And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

Gn:2:21: And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

Gn:2:22: And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

Gn:2:23: And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

LISTEN CAREFULLY, MAN WAS NOT CREATED FOR THE WOMAN, BUT THE WOMAN WAS CREATED FOR THE MAN. THE APOSTLE PAUL WAS INSPIRED OF GOD TO RECORD THESE WORDS ABOUT THE CREATION OF THE MAN, AND WOMAN.

1Cor:11:8: For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man

1Cor:11:9: Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

THIS FACT MAKES A GREAT DEAL OF DIFFERENCE WHEN IT COMES TO DIVORCE. THE MAN CAN DIVORCE HIS WIFE FOR FORNICATION, AND REMARRY WITHOUT LIVING IN ADULTERY. BUT THE WOMAN CANNOT DIVORCE HER HUSBAND, AND REMARRY WITHOUT LIVING IN ADULTERY, AS LONG AS SHE HAS A LIVING HUSBAND. NOW CONCERNING MAN DIVORCING HIS WIFE. THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS SPEAKING TO THE PHARISEES IN THESE VERSES OF SCRIPTURE,

Mt:19:3: The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

Mt:19:4: And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,

Mt:19:5: And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

Mt:19:6: Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Mt:19:7: They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?

Mt:19:8: He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.

Mt:19:9: And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

MAN CAN DIVORCE HIS WIFE FOR FORNICATION, AND REMARRY WITHOUT LIVING IN ADULTERY. AND NOW CONCERNING THE WOMAN PUTTING HER HUSBAND AWAY, AND REMARRYING. A WOMAN CANNOT PUT HER HUSBAND AWAY FOR ANY CAUSE, AND REMARRY WITHOUT LIVING IN ADULTERY, AS LONG AS SHE HAS A LIVING HUSBAND.

Rom:7:1: Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?

Rom:7:2: For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

Rom:7:3: So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.

WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT FOR A PERSON TO KNOW THIS LAW? BECAUSE ADULTERY DESTROYS THE SOUL.

Prv:6:32: But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. (KJV)

MAN IS A TRINITY IN UNITY. HE HAS A BODY, SOUL, AND SPIRIT. THE BODY OF FLESH, AND BLOOD SHALL PERISH. IT IS THE SOUL OF MAN THAT SHALL LIVE IN ETERNITY. FOR THE SOUL OF MAN IS RENEWED DAY, BY DAY.

2Cor:4:16: For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. (KJV)

WERE MEN, AND WOMEN, CREATED EQUAL? NO, FOR ANY TWO THINGS TO BE EQUAL THEY MUST BE IDENTICAL. AND MEN AND WOMEN WERE CERTAINLY NOT CREATED IDENTICAL. I BELIEVE THAT THEY WERE CREATED EQUAL IN THIS RESPECT, THEY ARE BOTH ENTITLED TO LIFE, LIBERTY, AND A PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. WHY WERE THE WICKED CREATED? THE WICKED, THE CHILDREN OF SATAN, WERE CREATED TO BE TAKEN, AND DESTROYED.

2Pt:2:9: The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:

2Pt:2:10: But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

2Pt:2:11: Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.

2Pt:2:12: But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;

2Pt:2:13: And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;

WHY WERE THE ANIMALS, THE FISH, AND BIRDS CREATED? THEY WERE CREATED AS MEAT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD. WAS THE HOG, THE RABBIT, AND THE CATFISH, AND OTHER PREVIOUSLY UNCLEAN ANIMALS, BIRDS, AND FISH MADE FOR US TO EAT. YES, OUR FOOD IS SANCTIFIED, BY THE WORD OF GOD, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND THANKSGIVING.

1Tm:4:1: Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

1Tm:4:2: Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

1Tm:4:3: Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

1Tm:4:4: For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:

1Tm:4:5: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

1Tm:4:6: If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.

I BELIEVE THAT WHEN GOD CREATED THE ANIMALS, BIRDS, AND FISH, AND OTHER CREATURES, THAT ALL THINGS WERE CLEAN. BUT BECAUSE OF THE ORIGINAL SIN OF ADAM MANY OF THE ANIMALS, BIRDS, FISH, AND OTHER CREATURES BECAME UNCLEAN. WHEN WERE THE PREVIOUSLY UNCLEAN ANIMALS MADE CLEAN? I BELIEVE THAT WHEN CHRIST JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED, THERE WAS A FOUNTAIN OPENED THAT CLEANSED THE ANIMALS, BIRDS, AND FISH, AND MADE THEM ACCEPTABLE TO EAT, AFTER BEING SANCTIFIED, BY THE WORD OF GOD, AND THANKSGIVING. LISTEN AS I READ THE SCRIPTURES CONCERNING THIS CLEANSING.

Acts:10:9: On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour: Acts:10:10: And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

Acts:10:11: And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:

Acts:10:12: Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

Acts:10:13: And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.

Acts:10:14: But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.

Acts:10:15: And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.

Acts:10:16: This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.

CHILDREN OF LIGHT, ARE YOU AWARE WHAT GOD HAS CREATED IS FOR EVER? YOU HAVE BEEN CREATED AND YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND ETERNITY SOME WHERE. FOR WHATSOEVER GOD DOES IS FOREVER. GOD INSPIRED SOLOMON TO RECORD THESE WORDS, CONCERNING CREATION.

Eccl:3:14: I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him. (KJV)

COME INTO THIS KNOWLEDGE, SAINTS OF GOD, ONLY THE ELECT OF GOD SHALL BE SAVED ON THE DAY THAT GOD JUDGES US. THOSE PREDESTINATED FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, TO WALK THE STREET OF GOLD, PREDESTINATED TO EAT OF THE TREE OF LIFE, AND TO DRINK OF THE CRYSTAL CLEAR WATER OF LIFE. THOSE CREATED TO BE HEIR, AND JOINT HEIR WITH JESUS IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD. IF YOU PLAN TO MAKE HEAVEN YOUR ETERNAL HOME THERE IS A WAY THAT YOU CAN MAKE SURE OF YOUR CALLING, AND ELECTION.

2Pt:1:4: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

2Pt:1:5: And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

2Pt:1:6: And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

2Pt:1:7: And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

2Pt:1:8: For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

2Pt:1:9: But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

2Pt:1:10: Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

2Pt:1:11: For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

SAINTS OF GOD, HAVE YOU RECEIVED THE HOLY GHOST SINCE YOU BELIEVED? IF NOT, HOW WERE YOU BAPTIZED? REPENT, AND BE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST FOR THE REMISSION OF SIN, AND YOU SHALL RECEIVE THE HOLY GHOST.
