The Good God and the Evil World

-

 God is the author of light and perfection (Gen. 1:1; James 1:17; 1John 1:15), He made all things good at the beginning and blessed the earth and its inhabitants. Everything God made is good because He is a good God and there is no evil or darkness in Him, He created the world Good and perfect and the human in it, the animals and the heavenly bodies and the oceans, mountains and valleys are testament of His good works.



WHY DOES BAD THINGS HAPPEN IN A GOOD WORLD?

Satan was the author of everything bad and evil, he was a perfect creature of God until sin was found in him. (Ezik. 28:15) He was the first to rebel against God and subsequently lead other Angel's to rebel against their maker. (Rev. 12:7-17; Isaiah 14:12-15) when he was finally casted down to earth, he has no other mission other than to go after man which God has created and he succeeded in making man to disobey God (Gen. 3:1-7). It was from this day on that bad things began to happen in a good world.

WAS GOD TAKEN BY SURPRISE?

God is omniscient (all knowing) so nothing takes Him by surprise, He is the one who knows the beginning from the end, He is the author and finisher of our faith. Before the devil introduced sin into this world, God from the very Foundation of the world has made provision for redemption of man through His son Jesus Christ (Rev. 13:8; Heb. 9:26). No one can question God for He created the earth and all that is in it for His own pleasure. I see the earth as God's own laboratory where He mixed different agents and allowed them to react and will finally make fine products out of it.

God has not rejected the world and all that is in it, He is only patient with sinners who are His genuine sons and daughters to return home just like in the parable of the progidal son. God will not destroy the world but the evil ones who lives in it. The day of the Lord is at hand and there will be no mercy at His return, but today is the day of mercy, the acceptable year of the Lord, the door of salvation is still wide open to all who wishes to come in but as soon as the master of the house shuts the door, their remains no more sacrifice for sin.

Don't wait till it's too late! Resist the devil today and he will flee from you, open the doors of your heart and let Jesus Christ in.

THE LOVE OF GOD

  The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. (2 Corinthians 13:14|KJV- The Love of God is God's compassion for mankind, He loved the world and all that is in it and sent His son Jesus Christ to salvage it from destruction.  How can we measure the love of God? 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. (Romans 5:8-11|KJV- The love of God is not something we can measure or say, He loved us ahead of time, before we became sinners and while we were yet sinners He loves us and died for our sake. His love demonstrated on t

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. (Galatians 5:19-23|KJV Today we want to make clear the labour, now for the fact that you were asked to go out for evangelism or clean the church does not per se mean that you are a labourer, that you go out every morning for morning cry or always preaching in the bus does not make you a labourer in this context. That you own a ministry and run marathon activities does not mean you are laboring. Now what does it really mean to labour in the Kingdom

 What is sin? Sin is an immoral act considered to be transgression against divine law.(1 John 3:4) Sin according to the scripture is act or omission against God by despising his person and Christian biblical law and by extention to others. Hence rebellion against God and neighbors(Deuteronomy 9:7, Joshua 1:18) SATAN SINNED Who is Satan? Satan was once an archangel who once sat before the throne of God. He lost his position before God the very moment inequity was found in him (Ezik. 28:15). He was the author and architect of sin and rebellion against God; he led other Angel's to rebel against God (Rev. 12:7-9) and deceived man to sin against God (Gen. 3:1-5) Luke 10:18 describes Satan as "LIGHTNING FALL FROM HEAVEN". Jesus in Luke 10:18 further noted the defeat of satan and how he has been casted down to earth from his previous position cf (Rev.12:9), this is to teach Christian people how powerless the satan has become. Also  John 8:44 referred to Satan as a murderer and a
