Brief Description

Long before our Earth’s Creation Week recorded in Genesis 1 & 2, the Godhead (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) existed from all eternity past. The Godhead is love, eternal, the Creator of all things, and therefore existed before all things.

Why Important

This truth removes 3 lies and replaces them with 3 truths:

1. The evolutionary view for the origin of God’s vast, gorgeous, illimitable universe is replaced with the truth that this universe was created by an intelligent Being with an intelligent design!
2. The lie that our Creator is a tyrant is replaced by the beautiful truth that our Creator is love!
3. The foundation of every form of idolatry and is replaced with the beautiful truth that God loves you and has an exciting, satisfying place for you in His vast Unlimited universe that will last forever!

Furthermore, consider this 7 characteristics about God that you’ll find around the edges or border on the front of the chart:

1. God is merciful (Ex. 34:6, 7) – Front Panel 1
2. God is just (Zech. 9:9; Rm. 3:26) – Front Panel 2
3. God is self-sacrificing (2 Cor. 5:19; Lk. 12:37) – Front Panel 3
4. God is trustworthy (Ruth 2:12; 2 Sam. 22:3; Ps. 62:8) – Front Panel 4
5. God is the Author of liberty to all (2 Cor. 3:17) – Front Panel 5
6. God is eternal (Dan. 4:34 – 37) – Front Panel 6
7. God loves you so (Jer. 31:3; Jn. 16:26, 27)! Therefore, with loving kindness He is drawing you to Himself for an exciting eternity in the Earth made new! – Front Panel 7

What a wonderful Creator and an intelligent Designer-God we serve!

Therefore, share His love with all you meet!

Brief Description

Long before Earth’s Creation Week in Gen. 1 & 2, the Godhead created the vast, beautiful, and unlimited universe teeming with life in unlimited galaxies filled with planets and intelligent beings on those planet who love and obey God!

Why Important

See that God’s universe is infinitely larger than heaven and earth and their inhabitants in the vast and unlimited size of God’s vast and magnificent universe!

Suggested Reading

Consider these 8 Items (A – G) Before Going Farther

Size of God’s Vast Universe

No limit!

Isa. 55:8-9, ⁸For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. ⁹For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Since God is comparing the height of heaven above earth to the height of His infinite thoughts that have no limit above our finite thoughts that do have limits, then the literal heigh of God vast universe is also without limit! Awesome!

This means we will never exhaust the limits of God’s vast universe for all eternity to explore!

Beings in Universe

1. Angels in heaven.
2. Intelligent beings (Job 1:6; 2:1) on the unnumbered worlds (Heb. 1:2; 11:3, KJV)

Contents of God’s Vast Universe

1. Worlds (Heb. 1:2; 11:3, KJV)
2. Galaxies
3. Intelligent beings (Job 1:6; 2:1).

Law of God’s Unlimited Universe

Law of selfless love

God’s law = love…

• Love God
• Love mankind

What society can live without that love?

Age of God’s Universe

Key Point

God’s long suffering character (2 Pt. 3:9; 1 Cor. 13:4; Mal. 3:6; Heb. 13:8) expands the age of the universe beyond earth’s approximate 6,000 years.

Consider The Evidence

The following evidences expand the age of God’s vast, illimitable, and breathtakingly beautiful universe and maintain:

• God is the Creator of the entire universe vs. an evolutionary origin of God’s vast universe.
• God performed Earth’s Creation Week about 6,000 years ago.
• God created this vast universe much longer before Earth’s Creation Week in Gen. 1 & 2.
• There is no need for the Bible believing Christian to be caught between 6000 yr earth or evolution. That’s the Fallacy of Bifurcation:
  • Either you believe the earth is about 6,000 years old, or you’ve given into the evolutionary origin of the universe. Really? Why? Upon what Biblical reason?

Evidence 1

God Suffers Long With Every Sinner

• God is long suffering towards all sinners (2 Pt. 3:9; 1 Cor. 13:4; Mal. 3:6; Heb. 13:8).
• Satan sinned in heaven (1 Jn. 3:8; 2 Pt. 2:4) and drew 1/3 of the angels (Rev. 12:4, 7-9).
• God suffered long with him and the 1/3 of his followers.

Evidence 2

It Takes a Long Time to Go From Loyal to Disloyal to God

• It takes a long time for each intelligent being to go from total loyal to God to total rebellion against God according to Mt. 24:12 (KJV, See below). That is, no intelligent being goes from full loyalty to God to total rebellion overnight. This process of apostasy is a long process spanning a long time.
• You may see the final result of a defection suddenly, but the process did not occur rapidly, but gradually, not overnight.
• This principle is seen in the word “wax” in Mt. 24:12 (KJV): “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
  • See the Strong’s Concordance number for this English word “wax”: 5594. ψύχω yuxō, psoo’-kho; A primary verb; to breathe (voluntarily but gently; thus differing on the one hand from 4154, which denotes properly a forcible respiration; and on the other from the base of 109, which refers properly to an inanimate breeze), that is, (by implication of reduction of temperature by evaporation) to chill (figuratively). :–wax cold.
  • Therefore, Matthew 24:12 reads, “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall [gently, gradually grow] cold [or disloyal to God].”
  • Therefore, this word “wax” adds this additional piece that also expands the age of the universe!

Evidence 3

The Number of Fallen Angels Lengthens Time

There were untold numbers of angels that fell with Satan (Rev. 12:4, 7-9), meaning that since each disloyal angel also went gradually from loyalty to God to disloyalty, this war in heaven spanned a lo-o-o-o-ong time! For each angel that fell went through his own, individual, gradual defection process spanning a long time! So add the total time of each individual angel that fell gradually from total loyalty to total rebellion, you discover that this rebellion took a lo-o-o-ong time….because God’s character suffers long with every prodigal that strays from His long-suffering love…not willing that any should perish! What a patient God we serve!

Let’s pause to consider just how many individual angels fell with the devil:

• Good angels:
  • Many with Elisha (2 Kg. 6:14 = great host; v. 16 = “…for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
  • 1 per person who fears God according to Ps. 34:7 = an enormous number of people worldwide = includes you & me: (Ps. 34:7), “The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.”
  • 60,000 for Christ if He requested them according to Mt. 26:53 where Christ said if He asked God for 12 legions of angels (c. 5000 / legion x 12 legions = 60,000 angels), God would have sent 60,000 angels for Him!
  • More than 100,000,000 around God’s throne in Dan. 7:10: 10,000 x 10,000 = 100,000,000

• Bad angels:
  • Since devil took 1/3 of heaven’s angels with him and Dan. 7:10 says there are at least 100,000,000 good = 2/3 good (Rev. 12:4, 7-9), then bad angel count = at least 50,000,000.
  • Then how long would it take 50,000,000 individual angels to gradually slide from loyal to God to disloyal to God? A lo-o-o-o-ong time!
  • What a patient God and Lo-o-o-o-ong suffering God we serve! God is Love (1 Jn 4:7, 8), and Love suffers L-o-o-o-ong (1 Cor. 13:4).
  • 5000 fallen angels for 2 demoniacs (Mk. 5:9, legion (c. 5000 with just 2 men = 2,500 per person)

Evidence 4

• Satan is the father, author, and originator of sin (Jn. 8:44; 1 Jn. 3:8).
• Then they were cast out of Heaven (Eze. 28:16).
• Satan came to Eve at the Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil as an already fallen foe (Gen. 3) seeking to lead her and Adam into rebellion as he had already rebelled against the God of the universe.
• The purpose of the Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil was to test Adam & Eve’s loyalty to God if they would obey Him.
• God doesn’t tempt anyone to disobey Him (Jm. 1:13). Instead, that’s the work of Satan, the originator of sin.
• The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil was a fruit tree (Gen. 2:17, 18; 3:1-3).
• God created fruit trees on Day 3 of Earth’s Creation Week (Gen. 1:11).
• God created Adam and Eve on Day 6 of Earth’s Creation Week (Gen. 1:26 – 28; 5:1 ,2).

Therefore:

• The existence of evil was already present in the universe 3 days before Adam & Eve were created!
• God suffered long with Satan and his followers before being cast out of heaven.
• And there’s no record of how long Lucifer and his followers were loyal to God from the day they were created “till iniquity was found” in Lucifer’s heart (Eze. 28:15, 16; Isa. 14:12 – 14).
• There are 2 “longs” in this story:
  • A long time from the day Lucifer was created till iniquity was found in his heart (Eze. 28:15, 16).
  • A long time from Satan’s rebellion till he and his followers were cast out of heaven.

• Therefore, God’s long-suffering character expands the age of God’s vast, unlimited, and breathtakingly beautiful universe beyond Earth’s 6,000 year existence!

Condition of God’s Universe Prior to Sin

Peace and harmony where every being throughout God’s vast created universe loved, worshipped, and adored our Creator God, and lovingly, selflessly served one another!

Characteristics of the Originator & Father of Sin Prior to His Fall

1. Beauty (Eze. 28:12)
2. Intelligence (Eze. 28:12)
   • Wiser than Daniel (Eze. 28:3) who was 10 times wiser than the best that Babylon could produce (Dan. 1:20).
3. Authority – had a throne (Isa. 14:12 – 14)
4. Musical talents – pipes plural (Eze. 28:13). Perhaps he could sing multiple parts at once!
5. Moral condition = perfect till iniquity was found in his heart (Eze. 28:15).

The sad reality is that the devil still retains all these characteristics, except the moral one, after his fall, which makes him a formidable, but thankfully, not an invincible foe…through our relying constantly and totally upon God’s Word, written and Living – Jesus Christ our mighty, invincible General Whom the Psalmist describes in Ps. 24:7-10 in these faith-sustaining words:

⁷Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

⁸Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

⁹Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

¹⁰Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory.

Why Important

The reason the entire universe was in harmony and filled with peace is everything was in harmony with God, His selfless character and His law of liberty which they knew and delighted to keep throughout His vast universe. And as long as everything throughout God’s vast universe was in harmony with God’s selfless character and lived in harmony with His great law of liberty, harmony and peace would remain without one discordant strain anywhere throughout God’s vast universe!

But unfortunately a change did come that brought disharmony, pain, tears, suffering, and eventual death where once had been only peace, joy, harmony, and love.

God’s 2 Options

Option 1: Instantly destroy Satan as soon as iniquity was found in his heart to spare the universe of all the suffering that would follow. But the result would be that the angels and inhabitants of the universe would serve God from fear and not love.

But God can only accept obedience that is based upon an intelligent appreciation of His character.

This left Him with only one other option…

Option 2: Give Satan time to develop his principles and let his own works condemn him in the sight of the entire universe.

Why Important: This major event in sin’s history illustrates:

• Humanity knew God’s command after leaving the ark to fill the whole earth (Gen. 8:15 – 19). But the majority disobeyed God by staying in one place – the plain of Shinar – because they did not believe God and were rebellious against Him.
• The disbelieving and rebellious people built the tower intending that the entire world would honor them. They would be as gods and rule over the people. This tower was calculated to exalt the builders.
• Evil may appear to triumph for a time. But sooner or later, God will place a check on evil. For God would not permit them to complete their work. Then all individuals, leaders, and nations will discover the truth the psalmist penned in Psalm 33:10-11 (KJV): ¹⁰The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.¹¹The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

(Abbreviation)

Date: 1485 – 1445

Location on Chart

Brief Description: x

Why Important: According to Paul in Galatians 3:8, the Scripture existed in Abraham’s day since the Scriptures preached the gospel of justification by faith for the nations to Abraham:

Gal. 3:8, “And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.”

Now how could the Scripture preach the gospel to Abraham unless the Scriptures existed in Abrahams day and Abraham knew and had access to the Scriptures…that preached the gospel of justification to all nation by faith?

This raises another interesting question: How could the Scriptures be available to Abraham since the Bible was not begun in written form (key phrase) until Abraham’s great-great-great-great-grandson, Moses, began to place the Bible in written form (key phrase) some 400 years in the future of Abraham?

Simple: God has continually spoken to mankind:

• Before the fall – face to face
• After the fall – through
  • Christ
  • Heavenly angels, and
  • The Scriptures:
    • Fall to Moses – Word of mouth
    • Moses to Second Coming – Written form
• Second Coming – face to face once again for all eternity!

How to Prepare

An Attempt Has Already Been Made in Liberty Loving America on…

May 21, 1888

USA speaks through legislative & judicial enactments.

It seems impossible to imagine intolerance could ever rear its ugly head here in liberty loving America. But the attempt has already been made, but thankfully defeated.

Legislation

Blair Bill

By US Senator H. W. Blair of New Hampshire proposed a national Sunday law

At the 50th Congress, 1st Session

S. 2983

Sec. 1. “In the Senate of the United States, May 21, 1888, Mr. Blair introduced the following bill, which was read twice, and referred to the Committee on Education and Labor:“A bill to secure to the people the enjoyment of the first day of the week, commonly known as the Lord’s day, as a day of rest, and to promote its observance as a day of religious worship.”Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representative of the United States of America in Congress Assembled. That no person, or corporation, or the agent, servant, or employee of any person or corporation, shall perform or authorized to be performed any secular work, labor, or business to the disturbance of others, works of necessity, mercy, and humanity excepted; nor shall any person engage in play, game, or amusement, or recreation, to the disturbance of others, on the first day of the week, commonly known as the Lord’s day [Sunday], or during any part thereof, in any territory, district, vessel, or place subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States [National]; nor shall it be lawful [Law]or in a person or corporation to receive pay for labor or service performed or rendered in violation of this section.

Sec. 2. No mails or mail matter show here after be transported in time of peace over any land postal route, nor shall any mail matter be collected, assorted, handled, or delivered during any part of the first day of the week; Provided, That whenever any letter shall relate to a work of necessity or mercy, or shall concern the health, life, or decease of any person, and the fact shall be plainly stated upon the face of the envelope containing the same, the postmaster-general shall provide for the transportation letter.

Sec. 3. That the prosecution of commerce between the States and with the Indian tribes, the same not being work of necessity, mercy, or humanity, by the transportation of persons or property by land or water in such a way as to interfere with or disturb the people in the enjoyment of the first day of the week, or any portion thereof, as a day of rest from labor, the same not being labor of necessity, mercy, or humanity, or it’s observance as a day of religious worship, is hereby prohibited; and any person or corporation, who shall willfully violate this section, shall be punished by a fine of no less than ten or more than thousand dollars, and no service performed in the prosecution of such prohibited commerce shall be lawful, nor shall any compensation be recoverable or be paid for the same.

Sec. 4. That all military and naval drills musters, and parades, not in time of active service or immediate preparation therefore, of soldiers, sailors, marines, or cadets of the United States, on the first day of the week, except assemblies for the due and orderly observance of religious worship, are hereby prohibited, nor shall any unnecessary labor be performed or permitted in the military or naval service of the United States on the Lord’s day.

Sec. 5. That it shall be unlawful to pay or to receive payment or wages in any manner for service rendered, or for labor performed, or for the transportation of persons or of property in violation of the provisions of this act, nor shall any action lie for the recovery thereof, and when so paid, whether in advance or otherwise, the same may be recovered back by whoever shall first sue for the same.

Sec. 6 That labor or service performed and rendered on the first day of the week in consequence of accident, disaster, or unavoidable delays in making the regular connections upon postal routes and routes of travel and transportation, the preservation of perishable and exposed property, and the regular and necessary transportation and delivery of articles of food in condition for healthy use, and such for transportation for short distances from one State, district or Territory into another State, district, or Territory as by local laws shall be declared to be necessary for the public good, shall not be deemed violations of this act, but the same shall be construed, so as far as possible, to secure to the whole people rest from toil during the first day of the week, their mental and moral culture, and the religious observance of the Sabbath day.”
