OTY: The Revelation "BEGINNING TO THE END" (A) -Gospel Truth

BIBLE PROPHECY

BEGINNING TO THE END

THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD: FROM THE BEGINNING TO ETERNITY
FROM "IN THE BEGINNING" TO THE DEATH OF JACOB

    IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD, AND THE WORD WAS WITH GOD, AND THE WORD WAS GOD-Jn 1:1. Jesus is the Word. And GOD CREATED THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH-Gen 1:1.
    And God created man in His own image, and God blessed them-ref Gen 1:27,28. Then the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, and there put the man-ref Gen 2:8. And the Lord God commanded the man telling him that he could eat of every tree of the garden, except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

God warned Adam of the penalty of disobedience by telling him that in the day he would eat thereof, he would surely die-ref Gen 2:15-17.


    Now the serpent, which is Satan, the devil, was more crafty than any of the wild animals that the Lord God had made-ref Gen 3:1. He began sowing doubt in Eve’s mind by asking her, "Has God said, ‘Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?’ " Then he contradicted what God had said by telling her that she would not surely die.

Thus, the fear of God’s judgment had been eliminated by Satan’s lie. Her emotions chose to believe a lie rather than God’s Word. And when she saw the tree was good for food, and pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she did eat-ref Gen 3:1-6. She also gave to her husband, and he did eat. They had sinned. They had disobeyed God’s command-ref Gen 3:6. Then their eyes were opened, and they realized they were naked-ref Gen 3:7.


    And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said, "Where are you?" Because they had sinned and were naked, they were afraid and hid-ref Gen 3:8. And the Lord God said, "Have you eaten of the tree?"-ref Gen 3:11. Then Adam blamed his wife by saying, "She gave me, and I ate it"-ref Gen 3:12. The Lord God asked the woman, "What have you done?" She blamed the devil by saying, "The serpent deceived me"-ref Gen 3:13.

Adam and Eve had sinned, and were now spiritually dead. They were without hope. Their sin was separating them from God.


    Now God begins to reveal His mercy and plan to redeem people from their sins. He begins to reveal the coming of Messiah. And as we now know, it is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ that we can be reconciled to God through faith. The Lord God said, I WILL PUT ENMITY BETWEEN YOU (Satan) AND THE WOMAN (Israel), AND BETWEEN YOUR OFFSPRING (the offspring of Satan, the son of Satan, the Antichrist which is yet to come, as well as the children of the devil) AND HERS (the Son of Man, the Son of God, Jesus Christ);

HE (Jesus) WILL CRUSH YOUR HEAD, AND YOU (Satan) WILL STRIKE HIS HEEL-Gen 3:15 NIV. (Satan was defeated at the cross, and, ultimately, will be cast into the lake of fire; however, Satan was allowed to cause the death of Jesus, but to his own defeat.) Adam had sinned, but now, God has shown His great mercy in announcing the coming of the Messiah. So the Lord God banished Adam from the garden of Eden, and from the tree of life-ref Gen 3:24. God put a curse on the ground, and told Adam, "To dust you shall return"-ref Gen 3:19.

   

Now Eve, Adam’s wife, gave birth to Cain and Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain worked the soil. In the course of time, Cain brought the fruit of the ground for an offering unto the Lord. (This indicates that God had instructed them in some manner concerning offerings.)

Abel brought of the firstborn of his flock, and of the fat thereof. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on Cain and his offering He did not look with favor. So Cain was angry. The Lord said to Cain, "If you do right, will you not be accepted?"-ref Gen 4:1-7. It may be noted there is a right attitude and a wrong attitude. There is a right way and a wrong way. The right attitude is one of repentance and believing God. The wrong attitude is one of no repentance and not believing God. The right way is doing it God’s way. Abel’s offering was of the best of the flock.

Cain’s offering was of the ground that was cursed. Note, God accepted Abel, and as a result, his offering which was correct, was also accepted. However, God did not accept Cain for he did not do that which was right. As a result, his offering was also not accepted. In addition, he also brought a wrong offering, which may indicate he did not believe in doing it God’s way. Still, God left the door open for repentance, as He said to Cain, that if he did right, would he not be accepted? The right way is repentance: a transformation, a conversion, and coming by faith in Jesus Christ, Who shed His blood for our sins.

The wrong way is coming without repentance. If you come by believing in Jesus Christ, you must also come by "His" way and by believing "His" Word.
   

Cain had a wrong attitude. Afterwards, Cain killed Abel-ref Gen 4:8; and God pronounced judgment upon Cain-ref Gen 4:11,12.


    And Adam had a son, and called his name Seth-ref Gen 5:3. It was from the lineage of Seth that, ultimately, Noah would come forth. The number of people greatly increased upon the earth.
   

It came to pass that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and God was grieved that He had made man-ref Gen 6:5,6. God made a decision to destroy man and animals, including the creatures that went along the ground, and the birds; but Noah found grace in God's eyes-ref Gen 6:7,8. Noah built an ark at God's direction-ref Gen 6:14-22. Noah entered the ark, and his family, and all the creatures that God had determined to keep alive came into the ark, and the Lord shut him in-ref Gen 7:13-16. The flood came, and all flesh died that moved upon the earth-ref Gen 7:17,21-23.

All the high mountains were covered with the water-Gen 7:19. Finally, the waters receded, and Noah and his family, and all the living things left the ark-ref Gen 8:15-19. Then Noah built an altar to the Lord, and God made a covenant with Noah-ref Gen 8:20-9:15. Through the sons of Noah, the whole earth was repopulated-Gen 9:18,19. After the flood, the earth was of one language. Man again rebelled against God. Then God confounded their language, and scattered them all over the earth-Gen 11:1-8.


    From the lineage of Noah and Shem, came Abram. From Abram (Abraham) came Ishmael and Isaac. Ishmael was born of the bond woman, and Isaac was born of the free woman. These two half brothers were at odds with each other. It was originally expected that Ishmael would be Abram's heir; however, GOD SAID...IN ISAAC SHALL THY SEED BE CALLED-Gen 21:12.

Many of the Arabs today are descendants of Ishmael. They believe the land of Israel should belong to them as they are the offspring of the firstborn of Abram. But God said the heir would be the offspring of Isaac. Thus, there is what appears to be an unsolvable problem in the Middle East. This same feud between Ishmael and Isaac goes on today. This forms the basis for much of the Bible prophecy that is yet to happen. God's covenant is with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and their seed.


    Sodom and Gomorrah, in which ten just men could not be found, was destroyed-ref Gen 18:32; 19:22-25.
    Abraham begat Isaac. Isaac begat Jacob, whose name was changed by God, to Israel-ref Gen 35:10. From Jacob came twelve sons, which would become the twelve tribes of Israel-ref Gen 35:22-26. Israel went to Egypt.

Prophecy Digested

Prove All Things knowing that all Prophecy is about Jesus and God revealing His Son…To us..for our…Salvation. We post material that is questionable, objectionable, and in the opinion of the Editor of the Prophetic Perspective, valid to use as God chooses to. Sometimes that is highly suspect as material setting “dates” of the Rapture is, but often these posts, may have pieces that are correct to futher study.
