Bethel v Bethaven
Bethel is a House of God. Bethaven is a house of vanity, of nothingness. Choose the House of Worship that Worships God and follows His Word and not that of the traditions of men.
II John 1:10-11 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Luke 16:15 And He said unto them, "Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
II John 1:10-11 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Do Not Add & Do Not Take Away
Whether in ignorance or on purpose, it is not wise to add to or take away from God's Word. All the tinkering with the translations does this. Preaching vain lessons from man's mind and not God's Word does this too. Check out everything for yourself and only study with those who check out!
Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.

Satan's Plan: The Church
So Satan's plan to impact Christ's seedline went bust. Neither through Cain, nor the Fallen Angels did it alter God's prevailing plan. Satan's other end run has been to impact God's message. From the 1st earth age to the Garden of Eden throughout all of history the evidence of Satan's twisting of Truth is abound. Should it surprise anyone who studies God's Word to know that Satan has infiltrated the Church?
Again, Satan does not come in this evil bad guy role. He compliments, cajoles, disarms, etc., etc., to twist truth and reality just enough to work in his favor. The very traditions of men throughout history and especially today are fraught with his handy work.
II Corinthians 11:13-15 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
The ministers of Satan present themselves as the ministers of Christ. Little difference to any of the false prophets and teachers in history or than the Sadducees and Pharisees of Christ's time.
The Kenites impacted the writings as scribes to the Israelites I Chronicles 2:55. The further away from the Manuscripts, the more diluted and misrepresented the Scriptures. If you compare common translations of today's Bibles to that of even just the King James Bible it is heart stopping how changed and misrepresented the texts has become.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ:
Mark 7:9 And He said unto them, "Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition."
The traditions of men with just even looking at "Easter" and "Christmas" celebrations in the Churches today is heartbreaking .... so much of what goes on is from pagan tradition in place of what God stipulated in His Word. Through ignorance we have allowed Satan to take over these very practices. Matthew 15:14; Hosea 4:6; James 1:5; Romans 16:17-20; I Peter 1:14-16

Christ Became Our Passover
Been a Long Time Gone
September 29th Christ Was Born
As mentioned in the post Christ Became Our Passover the laws were not what was nailed to the Cross but the blood ordinances. Most churches today are misrepresenting that the Old Testament does not apply to us today. This is so not the case nor is it scriptural. The New Testament and Christ's teachings stipulate just the opposite.
II Peter 2:1-3 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord That bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
Matthew 23:26-28 speaks to the false teachers who white wash their deeds and work at making it seem so clean, wonderful, and righteous.
So why are the churches filled with people so blind to God's real Truth and so willing to listen to the false prophets who themselves are mislead? Because it sounds good. It sounds so sweet and so easy. It doesn't make anyone feel uncomfortable or really responsible. How do you tell if a church is teaching God's Truth? 1) Check out everything for yourself in God's Word to know what's Truth and what's false. 2) If they tell you more what they think and give you more written speech than God's Word and what He thinks, then you most likely need to search beyond them. 3) If they teach false traditions of men more than God's Truth, then they are not teaching Truth. (partaking of an apple in the Garden of Eden, that you don't have to understand Revelation, that you are going to be "taken" in the end times and not to worry about anything (post forthcoming on the Rapture), that Easter tradition is Biblical and do not teach about Passover, they beg for money, they don't teach the Key of David, etc., etc., etc.) Isaiah 30:8-17; Ezekiel 13; I Peter 2; II John 1:10-11; Matthew 24:11-24
Ezekiel 13:1-3 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, "Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, 'Hear ye the word of the Lord; Thus saith the Lord God; 'Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
II Timothy 4:1-5 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, Who shall judge the quick and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
Out of the seven churches spoken of in Revelation only two of them was God pleased because only those two taught His Truth. Be wiser than the Serpent. Study God's Word for yourself so as not to be deceived! God's judgment begins at the pulpit so even those meaning well will have to answer for their deception through their own ignorance. We all individually answer for our own actions....we are all responsible for our own knowledge!
Jeremiah 23:1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture! saith the Lord.
Jeremiah 23:30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that steal My words every one from his neighbor.
All of Jeremiah 23 addresses false prophets and fake preachers of God's Word.
I Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

Famine Of The End Times
Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:
In this day and time where the Bible is published in almost all languages and available to almost anyone who seeks it, how can there be a famine for hearing His Words? Simply the mistransliterations of the Manuscripts combined with the lack of true knowledge and understanding of His Word. If only folks would spend the time chapter by chapter and verse by verse; subject and object seeking the simplicity of His Word there would not be such a famine. That is not the case however! Don't let ignorance derail your walk with God! Study to show thyself approved!

In The Beginning.....God's Plan: Freewill or Predestination
God will not interfere in the life of anyone with freewill, but He will lead, guide and direct anyone who asks Him to...and anyone with predestination. So what's the deal with predestination and freewill? Back in Why The 2nd Earth Age Post, I mentioned the 1/3 of God's children in the 1st earth age that followed Him outright and stood against Satan (with a 1/3 choosing Satan, and the other 1/3 that were wishy washy undecided). These 1/3 God knows He can count on without question....These 1/3 are not "special" and not "prejudged" for their actions in this 2nd earth age...other than to say they earned their stripes (so to speak) in that 1st earth age, and because of their choice and actions in that 1st earth age, they are predestined in this 2nd earth age to impact God's Plan through His direction and interference in their lives (such as the prophets for example). These predestined are God's Elect. Again, not better than anyone else, just directed based on their decisions and actions in the 1st earth age. These Elect throughout history and ongoing until Christ's returning in the 7th Trump carry out God's Plan and bring forth His Truth through His interference in their lives and His direction.
Ephesians 1:4-5 According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
The "foundation of the world" remember is that katabole ... end of the 1st earth age. So based on their actions prior to this 2nd earth age, God predestinated them in this 2nd earth age.
Romans 8:28-30 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also called: and whom He called, them He also justified: and whom He justified, them He also glorified.
Romans 8:33 Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God That justifieth;
Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Also, among others not mentioned: Romans 11 & II Timothy 3:14-15
That 1/3 that stood for God in the 1st earth age were the "first" to stand and will also come "last" to stand in the end of this 2nd earth age. They stood against Satan in the 1st earth age and will be of the last generation who will once again stand against Satan as antichrist.
Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few are chosen.
Luke 13:30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.
Ephesians 1:4-5 According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
The "foundation of the world" remember is that katabole ... end of the 1st earth age. So based on their actions prior to this 2nd earth age, God predestinated them in this 2nd earth age.

Eyes To See & Ears To Hear
Romans 8:24-26 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit Itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
*verse 24 is written to God's elect (Freewill or Predestination). If you want to be bound by hope then be careful what you ask God to reveal to you, because once it is revealed, it is reality and not hope or faith.
*verse 25-26 relays that God will help the elect with their weaknesses. He will move them to do what He wants done.
Romans 11:7-8 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded (According as it is written, "God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear:;) unto this day.
Matthew 13:10-16 And the disciples came, and said unto Him, "Why speakest Thou unto them in parables?" He answered and said unto them, "Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, 'By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.' But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. {Esaias = Isaiah}
Isaiah 44:18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.
The epitome of those that "hath not, from him shall be taken away" would be in Christ's Parable of the Sower (Matthew 13:3-23; Mark 4:2-20; Luke 8:4-15) in that the seeds by the wayside, the seeds on stony places, the seeds that were scorched, and the seeds among thorns neither had depth, fertile ground, or atmosphere to develop .... those without ears to hear/eyes to see neither have the depth, fertile mind, or surroundings to develop the full fruit of understanding. To some degree this is for their own protection.
II Thessalonians 2:10-11 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
Only God can blind someone's mind to the Truth of His Word if it is for their protection, and only God can open the seed of Truth for someone previously blinded. We are not to judge why someone does or does not see or is or is not worthy. This is not to take away from our duty to participate as fully as we are able. II Timothy 3:16-17 & II Timothy 2:15 Upcoming posts will lay out the rest of God's Plan with regard to the Millennium, Judgment Day, the one and only Unforgiveable Sin, and Salvation through Christ; as well as, Satan's Plan and how he has tried to impact God's Plan, and the purpose for this 2nd earth age and the age to come.

Only God Can Make A Seed Grow
Only God can make a seed grow and only God is the decider thereof upon which seeds take root and when. Don't let this discourage you, from planting seeds because the very seed you plant today may not take root until the very end, but had you not planted it, it would not have been able to make a difference in that person's life when it was most needed! (Freewill or Predestination & Eyes To See & Ears To Hear)
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The soul is the self. Your soul is who you are, the very essence of you. The spirit is the intellect. Your spirit is your intellect, your thought process that God can resurrect.

Seeds, Growth, Rewards I Cor 3
I Corinthians 3 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? For while one saith, "I am of Paul"; and another, "I am of Apollos"; are ye not carnal? Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God That giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. For we are laborurers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buidleth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. Know ye not that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the Temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the Temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. Let no man decive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, "He taketh the wise in their own craftiness." And again, "The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain." Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
The milk of salvation is awesome, but beyond that milk we need to mature to eat the meat of God's Word with understanding. We need to follow God and God's Word and teachings and not that of man. To be invested in the riches and knowledge of the world is to be ignorant and foolish in the knowledge of God. Be in the world, not of the world. We are all one many, membered body in Christ and dwelling there in one thought of mind is more peaceful and more profitable in Heaven than anything Satan or this world has to offer. The only thing you can take with you are your good works (and your unrepented sins) so anything gained of this world is fruitless in the next.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ:

Satan's Plan: Altering the Seedline...The Fallen Angels
Our spiritual bodies have shape, form, and substance. To be absent from these flesh bodies is to be present in our spiritual bodies (both from the 1st earth age onward, Spiritual & Flesh Bodies). When the Israelites were in the wilderness God sent them angel's food (manna) to consume (Exodus 16). When there are the instances in the Bible when the men (angel's) of God visited upon man, they sometimes ate with man, & in these cases were able to consume our food (Genesis 18 for one). When these angels (men of God) were present with us to deliver messages/intervene they were seen by man (Joshua 5:13-15; Judges 13 for just two examples). Just as Satan was able to seduce and produce offspring with Eve, so too did the fallen angels. The Garden of Eden
Genesis 6:1-2 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
The sons of God were angels. Angels are simply anyone in heaven in their spiritual bodies (archangels are different and apart, we are just talking the standard angel). Angels are not special, just as we are not special above anyone else, we just are who/what we are. These sons of God (angels) are not flying around with wings and are not little cherub babies. In the first earth/heaven age, God created all souls. In that first earth/heaven age, we were all in our spiritual bodies. When we are not in our flesh bodies in this second earth/heaven age, we are in our spiritual bodies. The "fallen angels" are what is being discussed here and they are those that decided to disobey God's Plan and not be born of woman in this 2nd earth age and rather come to earth as spiritual beings with full foreknowledge of the 1st earth age and procreate with the "daughters of man" (meaning having offspring with women who were born of woman and in the flesh). Why? Simply another game changer that Satan threw in to impact the seed line to Christ if possible, but also to impact the knowledge of the 1st earth age here on earth in the 2nd earth age to try and sway the outcome and purpose of this 2nd earth age.

Brief Recap of God's Plan
Satan's Overall Plan
Jude 1:6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, He hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
The fallen angels left their first estate, heaven, and came to earth outside of God's Plan. All of Jude deals with these angels. Because of their dreadful sin they are the only ones beside Satan that are already condemned to die the 2nd death (spiritual death) and are chained until the 6th Trump when they will be loosed with Satan. Revelation 9:1-3; Revelation 12:7-9; Revelation 11:13; II Peter 2:12
Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
The offspring of the fallen angels ("nephilim") and woman were "gibbor" (geber) and they were giants. The mixing of the supernatural with the flesh produced not only a supernaturally large/strong race of people, but also a group that had foreknowledge of that 1st earth/heaven age. Going back to that 1/3 that outright followed Satan, these were a wicked minded bunch with some awesome power over those just of the flesh. Numbers 13:33; Deuteronomy 2:9-10; Deuteronomy 2:20; Deuteronomy 3:11; Joshua 17:15
Genesis 6:5-7 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart. And the Lord said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth Me that I have made them."
So here God was right back to the decision He had to make when Satan sinned in the 1st earth age...destroy all of His creation/children....or....
Genesis 6:8-9 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
It does not say here that Noah was perfect, just that his generations were perfect....meaning that neither he nor his sons had mixed with any of the nephilim and that their line was still pure and clean. Through this adherence to God's Plan, God preserved all of the races and only eliminated the evil that existed and moved forward with His Plan of the 2nd earth/heaven age. Whether you believe that there was a universal flood or just a local flood of complete destruction....either way all races were preserved and carried forth (two of every kind), including the 8 Adamic souls (through Noah...seed line to Christ) & the Kenites. The wicked offspring of the nephilim, the gibbor were who needed to be removed.
Satan; however, did not let this go with just that first influx. There were two others to follow the Flood. Three influxes of fallen angels in all: 1st was that during Noah's time in Genesis 6. 2nd was the Canaanites (residents of Canaan not Kenites) about 400 years after Noah's Flood in Genesis 12:6; Genesis 13:7. 3rd will be during the end of this dispensational time referenced in I Corinthians 11:10. Don't forget that in the end times, it will be like that of the time of Noah. Matthew 24:37; Luke 17:26
Genesis 6:1-2 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

So that "after that", i.e., after the Flood, there was a second irruption of these fallen angels, evidently smaller in number and more limited in area, for they were for the most part confined to Canaan, and were in fact known as "the nations of Canaan". It was for the destruction of these, that the sword of Israel was necessary, as the Flood had been before. ~Appendix 25 excerpt

Eternally Thankful
Romans 5:1-21 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By Whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given unto us. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by Whom we have now received the atonement. Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of Him That was to come. But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification. For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by One, Jesus Christ.) Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of One the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of One shall many be made righteous. Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Moses' Father-In-Law
Abraham's second wife after Sarah died was Keturah. Keturah had six sons with Abraham, one of which was Midian. The Midianite priests referenced in the Bible descended from Abraham through Midian. Genesis 25:1-2
Moses' father-in-law was a Midianite priest as stated by Scriptures and goes by several names, Jethro, Reuel, Raguel. All of these names reference the same Midianite priest and are all one-in-the-same, Moses' father-in-law. One name is his actual name and the others a title. Exodus 2:16, 18; Exodus 3:1; Numbers 10:29 to name a few references.
In Judges 1:16 it stipulates that Moses' father-in-law was a Kenite. It is impossible for him to have been a Kenite (descendant of Cain) as it is well documented that he was in fact a descendant of Midian and a Midianite priest. This stipulation would have to do rather with the fact that Jethro and his family were from the land of the Kenites (difference again in genealogy versus geographical location of residence). Kenites, Jews, and Judah

Kenites, Jews, and Judah
There are several ways in which a group of people become known (referenced to, designated by, etc.). Here we are going to discuss the main two: One is by geographical location and yet another is by family name. We are going to dissect the differences in a few that get really confused.
As laid out in The Garden of Eden post, the Kenites were the offspring of Satan through Cain. Kenites simply means, sons of Cain. This does not refer to their location, but their family name. In the Hebrew it is Qayin and means of the Oriental tribe of Cain. Note that this is different than the Canaanites...as they were not offspring's of Cain. "Canaanites" refers to a location of people (people from the land of Canaan....Hebrew word Kenaaniy).
The Tribe of Judah is but one of the 12 tribes of Israel. Judah was one of the 12 sons of Jacob. Jacob's name would later be changed by God to that of Israel. Israel's sons & his son's offspring would be referred to as "tribes" (tribes of Israel or Israelites) or by their tribe's names (tribe's names would simply be the name of the particular son as in the tribe of Judah). {In a different discussion (post) for another day we will get into the "13th" blessed tribe.}
Jews can refer to either those people of the Tribe of Judah or to those people geographically from Judaea (making them Judaean not necessarily also of the Tribe of Judah). Ioudaios is the Greek word for Jew meaning from or of Judaea.
A significant part of Satan's interference in God's Plan and His Word is twisting who the "Jews" are. Traditions of man have so played into this twisting that commonly the entire 12 (technically 13) Tribes of Israel would be lost to most and just referred to as "Jews" (meaning the isolation of but one of the tribes). To further convolute matters, most do not know the differences between simply those who were residents of Judaea versus those that descended through genealogy from Judah or any one of his 11 other brothers.
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty (but thou art rich), and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
The only two churches that God was pleased with in Revelation were the two that taught the difference between the Jews that were simply the residence of Judaea; the Jews that were of the Tribe of Judah and descendants of Israel; and the Jews that were actually Kenites and had interwoven themselves into Judaea and became known and confused as being also of the Tribe of Judah but were in fact descendants of Cain (thereby Satan) instead. Knowing who the Kenites are is to have the Key of David and know the important distinctions in genealogy and the misleading of the churches in teaching not of God's Word but of Satan's twisting of the Word.
Kenites call themselves Jews but are not of Judah. Kenites started mixing into the Israelites as scribes back in I Chronicles 2:55. Not by coincidence that Satan's offspring would make themselves "useful" as the scribes to God's people.
This is not to at all imply that Kenites are doomed to anything other than what they doom themselves to. Only Satan and the fallen angels are yet judged to die the 2nd (spiritual) death and beyond that, there is only one Unforgivable Sin for which no one has yet had the opportunity to commit {will be discussed very shortly}. Kenites, just like anyone, descended from anyone, have the opportunity to believe upon Christ and follow Him. The Jews of today are a mixed race and just as God had promised to scatter Israel, they are scattered (all tribes) and whether they be descendants from Judah, descendants from those merely residing post captivities in Judaea, or actual descendants from Kenites is irrelevant as far as what they are able to choose to accept and/or how to live today. The only key importance from a scriptural standpoint is knowing the differences in Scripture and the traditions of man. For it is by this knowledge that Satan cannot deceive you in the 6th Trump. Matthew 16:15-19
Isaiah 22:20-22 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah: And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
Luke 11:52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered."
Scripture lawyers will do that when they do not have the Key of David. Luke 11:45-52
John 8:31-44 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, "If ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." They answered Him, "We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest Thou, 'Ye shall be made free?'" Jesus answered them, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill Me, because My word hath no place in you. I speak that which I have seen with My Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father." They answered and said unto Him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus saith unto them, "If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham. But now ye seek to kill Me, a Man That hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. Ye do the deeds of your father." Then said they to Him, "We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God." Jesus said unto them, "If God were your Father, ye would love Me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of Myself, but He sent Me. Why do ye not understand My speech? even because ye cannot hear My word. 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.
Knowing the difference in who the descendants of Israel (& the different tribes including that of Judah) are ... from those who just resided in Judaea after the captivities and had no direct genealogy with the offspring of Israel ... from those who descended from in whole or part from Kenites makes a huge difference in understanding the Pharisees and Sadducees and persecutors of Christ both then and now (Matthew 23:31-33). It also helps in understanding how God's Word has gotten mistranslated so poorly from the original manuscripts and how the churches have been led so astray as to celebrate pagan traditions and traditions of man over the Truth of God's Word. Satan's deception is rampant in interference with the teaching of God's Word. "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." II Timothy 2:15

Satan's Plan: Altering the Seedline...The Garden of Eden
Excerpts from The Bullinger King James Companion Bible Appendix 19:
We established in The Tree of Life & The Tree of Death & Ets vs Atseh posts that Christ was the Tree of Life and Satan the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. The fruit from Satan was two fold and against God's Plan all the way (1. twisting God's Words and sharing misinformation & 2. Christ's seed line). Satan's biggest initial try at altering God's Plan for His children was to impact the seed line for which Christ was designated to come (God's Plan: 2nd Earth Age Creation & Brief Recap of God's Plan). Satan would temporarily accomplish this by deceiving Eve.
Genesis 3:3 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.'"
The word "touch" is the Hebrew word naga in the original manuscript and means to lie with a woman (have sexual intercourse).
Genesis 3:13 And the Lord God said unto the woman, "What is this that thou hast done?" And the woman said, "The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat."
The word "beguiled" here in the Hebrew is nasha meaning to lead astray, to seduce. It is important to be able to take the words back to the Hebrew (Old Testament) and Greek (New Testament) to know the difference in meanings (e.g., the word "beguiled" in Genesis 29:25 is ramah and means to deceive or betray in Hebrew....a completely different Hebrew word than that in Genesis 3:13).
II Corinthians 11:2-3 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
Eve was beguiled by Satan. Beguiled here in the Greek is exapatao meaning to be wholly seduced. (Note that the "chaste virgin in Christ" has to do with your mind and Satan's attempt to alter God's Plan in the 5th & 6th Trumps....all to be discussed with the Trumps).
Genesis 4:1-2 Adam "knew" his wife and she conceived. Adam had sexual intercourse with Eve chronologically after Satan had done so. Eve carried fraternal twins (Cain was the offspring of Satan and Abel the offspring of Adam). Genesis 4:2 "and she again bare his brother Abel"... "again bare" means to continue in birth ("again" is the Hebrew word yacaph meaning to continue). Eve gave birth to Cain in verse one and continued in labor and gave birth to Abel in verse two. Fraternal twins are where two separate eggs or ova are fertilized and come from two separate bags of water, meaning they had two separate conceptions. Fraternal twins can be fertilized anywhere from two to six weeks apart.
Remember that the "repopulation" of the earth was already going on outside of the Garden of Eden with all of the races that were made with the 6th day creation. Adam and Eve's purposes were for the seed line of Christ.
Cain was the first murderer referenced in John 8:44 (as he killed his brother Abel Genesis 4:3-8 & I John 3:11-12). Cain was not found in the genealogy of Adam in Genesis 5 because he did not descend from Adam but Satan (Abel is not listed there either as he was slain and had no resulting offspring). Cain's genealogy is found in Genesis 4. Note that Cain's descendants are "Kenites" meaning simply "sons of Cain". The Kenites are that seed spoken of by Christ in the Parable of the Tares in Matthew 13:35-42 "tares are the children of the wicked one" {more on Kenites as well as the Parables of Christ in future posts}
"There were 130 years before Seth was born and substituted for Abel in the line of the promised seed." (Bullinger, Appendix 20)
Hebrews 2:14-16 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily He took not on Him the nature of angels; but He took on Him the seed of Abraham.
Christ came in the flesh, born of woman, just as God has required all of us to do in this 2nd earth age. He died in pain, in the flesh not saving Himself on the cross, for our sins and for us to live forever with Him in paradise in the rejuvenated 3rd earth/heaven age. He came to take away the "2nd death" (the death of the spirit) from us, to take that power from Satan, who is death. He came to destroy death, which is to say Satan. He came through the untainted (by Satan or fallen angels) seed line of Abraham (Adam).
The sin in the Garden of Eden was that of partaking in the fruit of Satan. There is no apple mentioned, nor did Adam and Eve cover their mouths with fig leaves but there private parts for that is from where their sin was committed and for what part they were ashamed.
It only shows the power of tradition, which has, from the infancy of each one of us, put before our eyes and written on our minds the picture of a "snake" and an "apple": the former based on a wrong interpretation, and the latter being a pure invention, about which there is not one word said in Holy Scripture.
Never was Satan's wisdom so craftily used as when he secured universal acceptance of this traditional belief: for it has succeeded in fixing the attention of mankind on the letter and the means, and thus blinding the eyes to the solemn fact that the Fall of man had to do solely with the Word of God, and is centered in the sin of believing Satan's lie instead of Jehovah's truth.
This is his [Satan's] object in perpetuating the traditions of the "snake" and the "apple", because it ministers to the acceptance of his lie, the hiding of God's truth, the support of tradition, the jeers of the infidel, the opposition of the critics, and the stumbling of the weak in faith.
We cannot conceive Eve as holding converse with a snake, but we can understand her being fascinated by one, apparently "an angel of light" (i.e., a glorious angel), possessing superior and supernatural knowledge.
We established in The Tree of Life & The Tree of Death & Ets vs Atseh posts that Christ was the Tree of Life and Satan the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. The fruit from Satan was two fold and against God's Plan all the way (1. twisting God's Words and sharing misinformation & 2. Christ's seed line). Satan's biggest initial try at altering God's Plan for His children was to impact the seed line for which Christ was designated to come (God's Plan: 2nd Earth Age Creation & Brief Recap of God's Plan). Satan would temporarily accomplish this by deceiving Eve.
Genesis 3:3 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.'"
The word "touch" is the Hebrew word naga in the original manuscript and means to lie with a woman (have sexual intercourse).

Ets vs Atseh
Ets in the Hebrew is "tree" and means a tree; wood; [actual] timber.
Atseh in the Hebrew is "tree" and means the spine; as giving firmness to the body; back bone.
Ets is an actual tree & Atseh is a symbolic tree representing a man. The Tree of Life & The Tree of Death
Genesis 2:9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Genesis 3:1-3 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, "Yea, hath God said, 'Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?" And the woman said unto the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 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.'"
The red highlighted "trees" in the passages above are the Hebrew word ets and are referring to actual fruit tress. God does not have anything against any of the trees He has created for us (or them) that bare actual fruit for us to consume. In contrast, the bolded "trees" in the passages above are the Hebrew word atseh and are referring to actual beings (in these instances Christ=Life; Satan=Death). Satan goes by many names and here, the "serpent", is but just one. Satan could take on any form he so chose as he is a supernatural being, so it is not a far stretch to imagine the beautiful and awe inspiring form he presented himself as to Eve. To partake of Satan is to partake of death because to believe his lies and follow him is to go down the path to a final death, the death of the soul.

The Tree of Life & The Tree of Death
Revelation 22:13-14 I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Christ is the Tree of Life and Satan is the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Satan is also death as in the spiritual death through him and the death that Christ came to destroy Hebrews 2:14. "Tree" in Hebrew is either actual timber or the spine of backbone as in the trunk of the body depending on which Hebrew word is used. In these instances it is the Hebrew word atseh meaning the trunk of the body (specifically, the spine, giving firmness to the body, the backbone).
Genesis 2:9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
The Bible uses symbolism all throughout and taking the words back to the original Hebrew/Greek meaning helps decipher as does knowing figures of speech (e.g., today if you state that you want to "paint the town red" you do not literally mean you want to obtain a bucket of paint and paint the town but rather you want to go out and have a great time) as does paying attention to the subject and object at hand. The "trees" in Genesis 2:9 refers to "men" as "trees" (their spine is the trunk and their limbs are the branches; their fruit is what comes from them ... what is produced from them ... good works or bad works....just as today you can be producing good fruit for the Lord or bad fruit for Satan). The symbolism in Isaiah 14 speaking of the king of Babylon and the fir trees rejoicing and him being cast into the "grave like an abominable branch" are some other of many, many such examples.
Ezekiel 31:3 Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon, with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs.
Satan was and is that very box cedar; that cheap imitation of Christ.
Genesis 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."
Satan had full knowledge of the 1st earth age and the most to gain by destroying God's plan for this 2nd earth age. Partaking in Satan's "fruit" and gaining knowledge from him was surely poison to anyone past or present. Satan poisons anyone's thoughts away from God who allow him to do so.

September 29th Christ was Born....
September 29th is when Christ was born and therefore a very special day indeed! His spirit did in fact begin to dwell with us at His conception, which was December 25th, so you are still good with your remembrance of Him then as well ;-).
Luke 1:1-56 Is the genealogy of Mary and therefore Christ, and the timeline of Christ's conception--not birth--an in depth breakdown is provided in Appendix 179 from The Bullinger King James Companion Bible (attached below). Some of my notes from Pastor Arnold Murray's "Christmas" lecture follows (complete lecture - tape/cd can be ordered through The Shepherd's Chapel).
Zacharias was a Levitical priest thereby making Mary's cousin Elisabeth a full Levite as well. Both
Zacharias and Elisabeth were mature in age and had no children. The angel, Gabriel, appeared before Zacharias (at the time of incense) and delivered the news unto him that his prayers had been heard and that Elisabeth would bear him a son--who would be named John (John the Baptist). Zacharias asked for a sign, so Gabriel announced that he would be unable to speak until the day that those things would be performed (since he did not believe Gabriel's (God's) words). The appearance of Gabriel took place during "the order of his (Zacharias) course" -- the course of Abia. This would have been the time of which Zacharias could not travel (June 13th - 19th). These days lasted until June 20th. At which time Zacharias returned home and Elisabeth conceived (John the Baptist)--on June 23rd or 24th.
Elisabeth hid herself five months (until November 24th). In the sixth month Gabriel was sent from God to Nazareth (of Galilee) to inform Mary that she would bring forth a Son, Jesus Christ. Christ's conception was on December 25th (Jesus was born on September 29th). Upon conception of Christ, Mary ran to tell Elisabeth (her cousin) the news--John (the Baptist) leapt in Elisabeth's womb because of the presence of Christ. Christ began dwelling with us on earth (in Mary's womb) on December 25th.
Elisabeth, being of the daughters of Aaron, was a full blood Levite; and being the cousin of Mary, whose mother would have been a full blood Levite--made Mary half Levite. Mary's father was of the Tribe of Judah making Mary half of the Tribe of Judah in addition to that of Levi. Notice also the genealogy in Luke 3:23 is of "in-laws"; rather than the language of "begat" it is the language of "was supposed" or "by law" meaning in-law.
John the Baptist was six months old when Christ was born; therefore, the conception of Elisabeth would have been six months preceding the conception of Christ.
For a complete breakdown of the course of Abia, timelines, and further proof of Christ being born in September versus the winter month of December read the following text in Appendix 179.

Seeds, Growth, Rewards I Cor 3
I Corinthians 3 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? For while one saith, "I am of Paul"; and another, "I am of Apollos"; are ye not carnal? Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God That giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. For we are laborurers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buidleth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. Know ye not that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the Temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the Temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. Let no man decive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, "He taketh the wise in their own craftiness." And again, "The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain." Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
The milk of salvation is awesome, but beyond that milk we need to mature to eat the meat of God's Word with understanding. We need to follow God and God's Word and teachings and not that of man. To be invested in the riches and knowledge of the world is to be ignorant and foolish in the knowledge of God. Be in the world, not of the world. We are all one many, membered body in Christ and dwelling there in one thought of mind is more peaceful and more profitable in Heaven than anything Satan or this world has to offer. The only thing you can take with you are your good works (and your unrepented sins) so anything gained of this world is fruitless in the next.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ:

Only God Can Make A Seed Grow
Only God can make a seed grow and only God is the decider thereof upon which seeds take root and when. Don't let this discourage you, from planting seeds because the very seed you plant today may not take root until the very end, but had you not planted it, it would not have been able to make a difference in that person's life when it was most needed! (Freewill or Predestination & Eyes To See & Ears To Hear)
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The soul is the self. Your soul is who you are, the very essence of you. The spirit is the intellect. Your spirit is your intellect, your thought process that God can resurrect.

Brief Redirection
The next week we will briefly redirect topic for a very important purpose and get back to the subject at hand (of Satan's Plan) the following week. There will be three posts to follow: two regarding seed planting and God's Word, and one on Christ's Birthday.

Where Is Satan?
Back in the Garden of Eden and in the time of Job, Satan roamed the earth freely.
Job 1:6-7 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them. And the Lord said unto Satan, "Whence comest thou?" Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, "From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it."
Satan roamed to and fro until he tempted Christ in the wilderness & Christ ordered Satan behind Him Matthew 4:10 & Luke 4:8. Satan was cast into the pit Isaiah 14:12-19 where he is chained until the 6th Trump, guarded by the Archangel Michael Jude 1:9 & Revelation 9:11 & Revelation 12:7-9. Following the 7th Trump, he will then be rechained for the teaching of the Millennium and then will be released for one final testing at the end of the Millennium just prior to Judgment Day Revelation 20:1-3.
Satan ceased physically being allowed to roam the earth after he tempted Christ in the wilderness. Spiritually, however, he is still very much involved in this 2nd earth age. Christ has given us power over Satan Luke 10: 17-19. Rebuke Satan from tempting you. Study God's Word to be armed with the gospel armour II Timothy 2:15.

Satan's Overall Plan
There will be several posts regarding Satan's Plan as we explore how he has attempted to alter God's Plan along the way and continues to do so and will up and until the very end. This will be just a brief overview before we start breaking it down piece by piece.
Ezekiel 28:14-15 Thou art the anointed cherub that coverth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
Satan was God's perfect cherub in the 1st earth age. He was the cherub that covereth the very Mercy Seat of God.
Ezekiel 28:2; 17 ...'Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a GOD, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas;' yet thou art a man, and not GOD, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness:...
Satan got the big ego and started thinking he was a god and from there started the deception for those that would believe and follow him. Remember that God created all souls in that 1st earth age. Satan deceived a 1/3 of God's children in that 1st earth age and many more could have been swayed. Don't mistake Satan as this overtly evil, mean character as he is so often portrayed. Satan is a beautiful and supernatural cherub and deceives through cunning and usually flattering means. God had to shorten the end days for His very elect's sake because Satan is that good at deceit (all to be covered when we get to the Trumps).
Ezekiel 28:18-19 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.
Satan's big end runs have been to initially impact the seedline for which Christ would come and then to impact the Truth of God's Word through mistranslations of the Manuscripts, traditions of man instead of God in worship and High Holy Days, through the churches and their teachings, and through who the Jews are (the tribe of Judah was but one tribe of Israel yet through Satan's deception that is all anyone focuses on and even at that get who the tribe of Judah and those residing of Judea mixed and incorrectly portrayed).
Satan goes by many names, cherub, serpent, king of Tyre, king of Tyrus, that Assyrian, box cedar, death, glistening one, dragon, antichrist, etc. Satan's big modus operandi from the Garden of Eden, to tempting Christ in the wilderness, to current times in the churches, to Christ's return, to the millennial period is to just slightly twist God's Words around such that it sounds right or looks right or "feels" right and trips folks up.
Satan deceived those in the 1st earth age and Eve in the Garden. He tortured Job and tempted Christ. He derailed so many throughout history and continues to do so now. Be wiser than the serpent and dig into God's Word to know the Truth for yourself, so when a mere turn of phrase is misconstrued you know the difference!

Brief Recap of God's Plan
So we have established that the 1st earth age was destroyed in Satan's overthrow and that God has given us all a chance without prior knowledge of the 1st earth age in this 2nd earth age that was the recreation outlined in Genesis. That the 2nd earth age was to be repopulated. That there is a distinction between 6th day man and 8th day man.
In Genesis 1:26 God created man in their own image. In the image of their spiritual bodies. This was the 6th day man. Beyond the man created on this 6th day of creation, repopulation of the earth began and all were born of woman as God's Plan dictates (reference explanations of born again in Why The 2nd Earth Age). This 6th day man accounts for all the races which were very good.
Geneses 1:31 And God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
God's Plan was for Him to come in the flesh (Jesus is God with us in the flesh) on earth as He is having His children do in order for them to be born innocent of the 1st earth age. Him coming through woman in this flesh age, flesh body, meant that the line (genealogy) for which He would come would have to be untainted of Satan (this will be made so very clear in forthcoming posts). God formed that man from which Christ would descend on the 8th day of creation (Adam).
God, just like any parent wants all of His children to live in the eternity with Him. The only children that are condemned to die a spiritual death prior to Judgment Day are Satan and the 7,000 Fallen Angles (all to be discussed soon). Satan, however, is more than happy to take as many souls with him and has tried to do just that since the beginning of God's Plan being put into action in the Garden of Eden with His set aside man for which Christ would be born. We will now turn our attention to Satan's Plan and how he has tried to impact and detour God's Plan since that time.

So Here We Go ;-)
I am finally gearing up to continue this work with the direction and guidance from God! If you are new to this site, please start at the bottom of last page (oldest Posts) and work your way up. If you have been here before or are on e-mail updates, please review before we get back to it, as this is definitely deep subject matter. Know that all of this is a first approach on this very layered material and I will be delving deeper once we have taken a first pass over everything for some foundational information from which to build. The next Post will pick up where we left off, so get ready to dig deep....
Also, know that my husband came across another site offering free access to The Companion Bible, King James Version (also referred to as the Bullinger King James Companion Bible). Here is a link for those interested: http://www.levendwater.org/companion/frameset.htm?The%20Companion%20Bible%20-%20Bullinger/index.htm&inhoudsopgave_companion.htm
God Bless!

In The Beginning.....God's Plan: The 3rd Earth Age
So following The Millennium & Judgment Day this earth (and heaven) get rejuvenated and renewed and the eternity with God will most definitely be heaven on earth! There will be no sin, no sorrow, and no more death.
Luke 12:4-5 And I say unto you My friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear Him, which after He hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear Him.
Following Judgment Day and those who were blotted out there will be no more fear or turmoil.
Revelation 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
II Peter 3:5-13 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heaven and the earth which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
These verses start in the 1st earth age and then cover the katabole (this is not talking about Noah's Flood here as the earth was not destroyed in his flood, but Satan's overthrow) ( Became Void & Without Form / Became Void & Without Form Part 2 / Why The 2nd Earth Age / Satan's Overthrow); and then takes us through the 2nd earth age, the 7th Trump, the Millennium, Judgment Day and the 1st day of 3rd Earth Age. The earth will not be destroyed and a new one created for the 3rd and final earth/heaven age, but it will be rejuvenated and put back perfect (north axis and all). All the evil rudiments (elements) destroyed (not the earth itself).
