“Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker?” Job 4:17
Satan’s downfall was wanting to be God, mans downfall was
wanting to be God. Satan told Eve, "And the serpent said unto the
woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat
thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good
and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it
was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took
of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and
he did eat." Genesis 3:4 – 6 It was Eves desire to be like God,
to treat God as though He did not know what He was talking about, “Ye shall
not surely die:” then Satan’s next lie was “then your eyes shall be
opened, and ye shall be as gods,” Eve’s down fall was believing Satan over
God, but God called Satan a liar, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the
lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and
abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie,
he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” John
8:44 and this is why people follow Satan’s advice and not God’s, this is
why people refuse to hear God’s words. “Why do ye not understand my speech?
even because ye cannot hear my word.” John 8:43 Eve ignored the warning of
God, “But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God
hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.” Genesis
3:3 but Satan told her that she would not die, and if she eats then she
would “ye shall be as gods” Today some 6,000 years later man still
cannot trust God, they would rather believe the lies of Satan over the Truth of
God’s Word. Therefore, they will change the meaning of the bible, but to do
what, to show the creature is as powerful, or more powerful than God. “Who
changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature
more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.” Romans 1:25 Notice
God said “served the creature more than the Creator” than is to
eliminate God and do-it-yourself. This is all taught in humanizing salvation,
power, grace, etc. They use words like decision, choice, turning over a new
leaf, praying the sinner’s prayer, works of all sorts, baptism, church
membership, or anything else in accomplishing salvation except Jesus Christ.
This is the very same as saying “I don’t need God or His, love, mercy, grace,
Jesus, the gospel, or the power of the Holy Spirit, because I can do it myself “I
am god”, this is defined under the word humanism. Our forefather and
foremother Adam and Eve eat of the forbidden fruit, Their eyes were opened, and
because of that they thought they could see what God was hiding from them, that
we can be gods and we do not need the salvation of God. Therefore, people will
change the truth into a lie and salvation is do-it-ourselves. These same people
are liars whom preach this hearsay from their pulpits also lie about God,
listen to this lie, {God wants everyone to be saved} or {God loves everyone} or
{God can’t change your will} or {salvation is your choice}. All of these
contradict what God says in His word, “Salvation belongeth unto the LORD:
thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.” Psalms 3:8 His blessings are
upon His people, not everyone, people go to hells flames every single day and
most likely every minute of every day. Many will stand before the Great White
Throne and tell the Lord of all their good works only to hear Jesus tell them
that He never loved them because He knew them not as His. “Many will say to
me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name
have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will
I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”
Matthew 7:22 – 23 The lie is from Satan and the world believes the Satan’s
lie’s over the Truth of God and it will land them in hell’s eternal fire. Man,
outside of Christ is nothing like God, God is pure, righteous, holy, and
powerful, man has none of these attributes and what we did have in creation was
lost in the fall of our fore-parents Adam and Eve. God is the Creator of all
things including mankind, it is within His will and power what to make us or
not to make us. God owes no one anything, He does not have to love you, nor was
God obligated to make you a vessel of honor. God saves only by grace, through
Jesus Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit, and if you were not elected
before the foundation of the world, you are not a vessel of honor and nothing
you do in life will ever change that. People can demonize God, the bible, the
churches, and Christians, but it will not change God not His word. Just because
you believe it does not make it true, just because you were raised in church
believing something does not make it truth. The only truth is God’s word,
everything else is a lie. God is truth, Jesus is truth, and those whom God has
blessed to believe the truth is right, all else is a lie and the lie of Satan.
“For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of
God without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as
it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest
overcome when thou art judged.” Romans 3:3 - 4
