God’s Works; Jesus Always

From the beginning of creation God made the universe to be a standard in which His Son, Christ Jesus, would be the life of all creation. The Spirit Of Truth, in the world who testifies of God’s Truth as He hears it, shall testify of the Son, Jesus, also. Let the truth of the Word Of God come unto you.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
<
The same was in the beginning with God.
<
No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.
<
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
<
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
<
Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.
<
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
<
The following passages is a parable telling of the coming of the Son Of God to set up His kingdom that shall last forever.
<

MATTHEW; 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,

3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.

4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.

5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:

6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.

7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

God the Father anointed His Son giving Him the power to set up His kingdom forever. Also, God identified with the One, Jesus, as His Son.

And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
 <
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
 <
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD

By Will Myers

God created the world by and through His Son, Jesus. The Old Testament has His Son concealed within it. Of course, the New Testament reveals Jesus, the Son Of God. God’s works are to make people believe in whom He has sent; firstly, He sent His son, Jesus.

During the 16th century the belief that only the clergy could own and interpret the scriptures and talk with God on behalf of a commoner. This was the law with a possible death penalty if broken. During the 16th century, there was a movement that any or all could own a Bible and talk with God personally. The movement was given momentum by Martin Luther from Germany and others in England and Rome.  A couple clergy was actually burned at the stake for their participation in this movement. As we all can guess, they WON. We can now have Bibles and talk directly to our Heavenly Father. We have been in the age of a Personal Relationship With God for over 300 hundred years. Shamefully, the majority of the people is attacking religion instead of eagerly developing their personal relationship with God, our Creator.

In the following passages, one can understand that one soul is being spoken to mostly. The word “you” is used many times in the Bible; enough to believe that “you” are the main priority with God.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
 <

Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.

If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God.

David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard?

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, “So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’” And yet his works have been finished since the creation of the world.

For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: “On the seventh day God rested from all his works.”

for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his.
 <
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.

The Most Persuasive Scientific Reason to Believe?

How do you respond when someone challenges you on one of your strongly held beliefs? Not long ago I faced such a challenge when someone showed me a published paper indicating that the universe did not have a beginning.

I first heard the scientific case for the beginning of the universe when introduced to Reasons to Believe during my years as an undergrad. For the past decade I have written and spoken extensively on how big bang cosmology (along with the associated space-time theorems of general relativity) demonstrates the scientific accuracy of the biblical account of cosmic creation.

The person who challenged my view argued that scientists need a quantum theory of gravity to know with total certainty whether or not the universe had a beginning (a noncontroversial and correct statement), and yet the sufficiently developed theories of quantum gravity point to a universe with no beginning! As I investigated his argument more closely, I recognized it carried some weight, and I acknowledged to him—and myself—that it required a reasoned response.

Furthermore, the experimental data to test the validity of these models still resides in the far distant future, at best. Second, the past hundred years is littered with theoretical models that attempted to explain away the beginning of the universe. All these models share one common history: the observational data eventually drove the scientific community back to models that include a beginning! The multiverse serves as one of the more recent examples.

I don’t know exactly what the proper theory of quantum gravity will look like, when and if we’re able to develop it, but studying the history of cosmology over the last 100 years makes me more confident of an important truth: If the Bible genuinely describes a universe with a beginning (and it certainly appears so), then the scientific data will eventually affirm that same conclusion.

Reasons to Believe recently produced a DVD titled How Do We Know the Universe Had a Beginning? that describes my experience in grappling with this challenge. I hope it will give you greater confidence in the reliability of Scripture and encourage you to share the hope of the gospel with your family, friends, and coworkers.

While many Christians and non-Christians see faith and science as in perpetual conflict, I find they integrate well. They operate by the same principles and are committed to discovering foundational truths. Read more about Dr. Jeff Zweerink.

Biblical Prophecy That The Devil Want Erased

By Will Myers
 <
There are prophecies in the bible that has come true or is nearly coming true that approaches supernatural predictions. The book of Isaiah predicts that Israel would become a nation again. It took over 5 thousand years but it happened in 1947. The only nation to become a nation again. This prophecy coming true is incredible.

Isaiah 11:12-14; (NIV)

12 He will raise a banner for the nations
    and gather the exiles of Israel;
he will assemble the scattered people of Judah
    from the four quarters of the earth.
13 Ephraim’s jealousy will vanish,
    and Judah’s enemies[a] will be destroyed;
Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,
    nor Judah hostile toward Ephraim.
14 They will swoop down on the slopes of Philistia to the west;
    together they will plunder the people to the east.
They will subdue Edom and Moab,
    and the Ammonites will be subject to them.

 <

The prophecy in Revelation about the beast who has the number 666 has come true virtually because the chip is being implanted as I write. As we live, the move from the dollar unto only electronic transfers for buying or selling is happening. Within the next 30 years this process shall be completed. Incredibly, this prophecy was given over 1500 hundred years ago.

Revelation 13:16-18; (NIV)

16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.

18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[a] That number is 666.

<

Unbelievably, in the book of Job it was prophesied that the Earth was suspended and not hanging on anything. This was over 6 thousand years ago. Only 3 hundred years ago was this prophecy verified.

Job 26:7
He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing.
 <
In the book of Revelation it was predicted that two witnesses of Jesus shall lye in the street for all nations to see. Of course, this was impossible until the recent invention and proliferation of the television.
 REVELATION
9 For three and a half days some from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial. 10 The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts,because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.
 <
Experts from most scientific disciplines has predicted that we are in the end times. Their innovation of a cosmic clock based on the age of the universe (14.5 billion years) yielded that we are two cosmic seconds away from total destruction. Now that we have satellite communication, we can witness the gospel to everyone. This application is nearing complete in that everyone would have heard the gospel.
And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
 <
The fulfilling of the above prophecies is a testimony from God giving almost supernatural credence to the Word Of God in the bible. The devil desires to eliminate the Word Of God and deceive the people easily. Unfortunately, the devil is the main influence of the atmosphere above the earth. He runs to and fro in the Earth consuming whom he can.

GOD’S SPEAKS THROUGH THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH

By Will Myers

Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

John 4:24; 

 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Ephesians 6:12-17;

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

The above scriptures connects the spiritual world to the material world and makes known our weapons in this world in which God is omnipresent; He is every where at all times. God is imposing on us and humans are imposing on God.  The Spirit Of Truth is in the world and we can also say that the Spirit of Truth of God emanates attributes of Christ Jesus. The Spirit Of Truth does not speak of himself but speaks what He hears. What God says in the universe is about His Son, Jesus who the Spirit Of Truth hears and speaks of.

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
May we all be filled with God’s Holy Spirit by accepting the Son Of God into our lives.

Why Would an Infinite Creator Employ the Same Designs?

Because I am a Christian, I see evidence for design in the biological realm. But for me, the converse is also true. Because I see design in the biological realm, I am a Christian. In fact, the elegant designs of biochemical systems convinced me as a graduate student that a Creator must exist and be responsible for life’s origin, paving the way for my conversion to Christianity.

Yet, many skeptics see the features of biological systems very differently than I do. They maintain that life’s origin, design, and diversity are best explained as the outworking of evolutionary processes. As evidence for this view, biologists point to the shared biological and biochemical features (homologies) possessed by organisms that naturally group or cluster together.

Homologous features may perform different functions and superficially appear different, yet they are fundamentally built around the same design. The quintessential example of a biological homology is the vertebrate forelimb—the human hand, the whale’s flipper, a dog’s paw, a bird’s wing, etc. Though these forelimbs are structurally distinct and perform different biological tasks, they are fundamentally built around the same design. The forelimb of every vertebrate consists of a long bone (humerus) in the arm, an elbow, two bones in the forearm (the radius and ulna), wrist bones (carpals), bones in the “hand” (metacarpals), and “fingers” (phalanges).

Evolutionary biologists interpret homologous structures as evolutionarily derived from ancestral features possessed by the common ancestor of the group. With respect to the vertebrate forelimbs, biologists maintain that the forelimb of the first tetrapods had the same design as all vertebrate forelimbs. However, through the course of evolutionary history, natural selection altered the vertebrate forelimbs to perform a variety of functional roles.

However, as a creationist and a design proponent, I maintain that homologous structures have been designed around an archetypical plan that existed in the Creator’s mind. To put it another way, homologous structures reflect common design, not the outworking of common descent.

My view on shared biological features led my Facebook friend Phil, a skeptic, to ask the following questions:

“Just think about the diverse range of creatures an actual creator could have made. And yet we see creatures appearing like and acting like family cousins instead. What would compel an actual designer with unlimited power to design all creatures with the same template, as if the design was a restriction on the designer? Perhaps it was to make belief more difficult, to make only rebellious (non-credulous) hearts disbelieve?”

Interesting questions, to be certain. This question gets to the core reason why evolutionary biologists reject the arguments for intelligent design. For these many biologists, homologous structures only make sense from within an evolutionary framework.

The View of Biological Homologies before Darwin

Part of the response to my friend Phil’s question can be found in the theoretical work of Sir Richard Owen, a prominent biologist from the UK who predated Darwin. One of the world’s most important anatomists in his day, Owen played a key role in discovering, describing, and interpreting biological homologies. Owen understood homologies from a design perspective. Specifically, Owen saw these mutual features as manifestations of a common blueprint that existed in the Creator’s mind, and, in turn, were physically manifested in the created order.

Archetypes and God’s Creativity

Instead of seeing the concept of the archetype as restricting God’s creativity, Owen regarded the archetype as reflecting teleology of the highest order. In his presentation to the Royal Institution of Great Britain, Owen lectured: “The satisfaction felt by the rightly constituted mind must ever be great in recognizing the fitness of parts for their appropriate functions; but when this fitness is gained as in the great toe of the foot of man or the ostrich, by a structure which at the same time betokens harmonious concord with a common type, the prescient operations of the One Cause of all organization becomes strikingly manifested to our limited intelligence.”1

In other words, Owen marveled at the way the Creator generated so much functional diversity from a single template—for example, the pentadactyl architecture of the vertebrate forelimb.

In fact, the diversity of life on Earth today—even throughout life’s history—built from 30 or so body plans (corresponding to the known animal phyla) is nothing short of mind-boggling. So, apparently creating life on Earth around design templates has done little to limit the Creator. In fact, I would argue—as Owen did— it highlights God’s ingenuity.

Designed for Discovery

There are a few reasons why God would have created life’s diversity using a limited set of templates. But, perhaps the most important reason is discoverability.

The universal nature of biochemistry and the homologous and convergent biological systems allow scientists to generalize what they learn studying one organism to the entirety of the biological realm, in some instances. The universal and homologous designs in biology allow the scientific community to make use of organisms as model systems. For example: by studying DNA replication in bacteria, we have gained key insight that allows us to understand DNA replication in all life on the planet. Studying gene regulation in yeast helps us understand gene regulation in human beings. Studying the developmental pathways of the nematode C. elegans has yielded important knowledge that helps us understand growth and development in many multicellular organisms. Studying genetics in the fruit fly Drosophila has provided key understanding regarding inheritance.

If, as my friend Phil wants, the Creator used a near infinite array of biological designs when he created, it would be virtually impossible for us to know anything about the living realm. The process of discovery in biology would become cumbersome and laborious.

Because the living realm is intelligible, it is possible for human beings to take advantage of God’s provision for us, made available within the creation. As we study and develop an understanding of the living realm, we can deploy that knowledge to benefit humanity—in fact, all life on Earth—through agriculture, medicine, conservation efforts, and emerging biotechnologies.

Ultimately, I believe that God has designed the biological realm for discoverability because He wants us to see, understand, and appreciate his handiwork as a Creator, so through his creation we can know him.

“It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.”

–Proverbs 25:2

God’s Perfect Righteousness Giving Perfect Order To All Things (Uspace)

By Will Myers
Faith works by love. Love never fail. Before my discourse into the subject,  I must give  honor to God’s supreme law of love in which all laws of God hangs on. The laws can not give life, only the spirit of God. The laws are guilds unto God’s perfect righteousness who is His Son, Jesus; such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever God does is perfect and He demands perfection as the laws of physics are perfect whether man has full knowledge of them or not. God’s creation was created with perfect order. The book of nature is perfect. The Word of God is perfect in spirit and truth. One can not correct the other because perfect is perfect, but one or the other can help correct a false interpretation of a biblical scripture.
And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course,

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

“But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre (Authority) of righteousness is the sceptre (Authority) of thy kingdom.” This scripture lets us know  that the Son’s  authority for righteousness is God’s Kingdom in spirit and truth.” The Kingdom has perfect order in all things just as God created the laws of physics in the beginning of the universe.
Acts 21:24
“Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.”
The law reflects the righteousness of God. The law  must be righteous in order to seek God’s Kingdom.
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.
“Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.” The word is law. 
“And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs.”
 <space>
The laws of physics can not lie. The laws of physics has perfect order even if humans can not observe the perfect order in a nuclear bomb blast. Humans can observe some order and some chaos. God sees no chaos. God sees only His perfect order from all things.
 <space>
You can bring Jesus (God’s perfect order) down from the heavens or delve into matters and bring Jesus up from the grave. Everything is connected to Christ Jesus, the Son Of God. Any way that an intellectual researches, the one is going to be compelled to acknowledge the man, Jesus.

The People And The State Of America

By Will Myers

Our government is continually working and creating innovations that shall keep each of us safe such as eyes in the sky that are positioned above each city with capabilities to identify a person and read a license plate; tracking devices are becoming very accurate, long range, and easy to apply. Lie detectors are soon becoming so dependable that their determinations are going to be allowed in court; expect this within 15 years. Fast forward 50 to 75 years, we shall have mind readers with wide expanded applications such as strategically positioning them in public places.

We have lost the protection of a search warrant, the privacy of our financial records alone with our right to private communications. Any police can search based on suspicion. Financial records of any common person can be pulled without a search warrant alone with their phone records.

All of our privacy rights have almost been eroded at a time that massive amounts of private information exist in a computer base which targeted each private citizen. The novelist thinks that if they are law abiding than they have nothing to worry, but what the novelist is not aware is that they are being placed in a behavior-suit in which the powers that be can manipulate them alone with determining the powers to be. As this comes into being than our democracy shall begin moving toward fascist leading unto hyper-communism where the elitist (Oligarchy) owns the minds of the people. Election of the present Republican politicians has guaranteed such to be successful in the near future.

It’s very hard to comprehend that our controlling Elite class prefers hyper-communism rather than a high-quality democracy. In a democracy, the people can vote to diminish the capital power of the Elite in favor of the needs of the people. The communist state would allow the free exercise of mental enslavement of the people by the Elite controlling class. This is why the Elitist controlled Republican party jumped on Obama and began to shout that he was a socialist because Obama moved to help the people to possibly get free health care. In general, a move toward socialism is a move toward the people owning the state; thereby, taking the capital power away from the Elitist.

At this time, we are moving toward fascism with the election of our present leaders. This is a tight relationship between government and corporate powers at the cost to the people. Fascism leads to communism due to the natural merging of government and corporate powers; this is why the Republicans so disparately wanted to stop any move by Obama and the Democrats toward ownership of the state by the people. The people must be in solidarity in order to prevent being placed in a behavior-suit by the Elite which leads to mental enslavement.

The government wants us to think that everything that they do is in our best interest. This is the furthermost from the truth. We heard from former President Bush state that we are in a new world order immediately after 911. This worked as a way to set up an entrapment for the common people to become entangled in the new order of things; whereas, all the new apparatus for the new social machinery for controlling the people slowly place. This is not in the best interest of the people or else we would be out and out told gladly. Of course, we are going to be continually told that it is for our safety and well-being. The Police State shall continually proclaim that all is for our welfare and safety. There are so many laws on the books until they shall be used arbitrarily to punish any person that deviates from the program of the Police State which is a surrogate of the controlling Elites who are the controllers of the One World Order, the government.

If one read and study the biblical book of Revelations then One shall see that all of the scenarios in the book are now running in smaller proportions. Antichrist shall grow out of the One World Order ruling class.  We are living in the last days.

Being With The Lord Is Home Forever

By Will Myers

Feeling at home is more than being in your physical home; one’s mental state is in play also. Are you satisfied and happy? The feeling that you are fulfilled in life is a blessed state of mind. Our minds works continually to overcome all shortcomings and expectations of shortcomings (insecurities). The Lord Who has God’s Holy Spirit has overcome all things because He is the perfect righteousness of God. One only has to let the Lord do it; just get our of the Lord’s way and let Him do the work. For He is your Lord and Savior.

1 Corinthians 2:9; However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him—

2 Corinthians 5:1-10

For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. …
But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God , then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.

THE COMFORTER WHO GOD HAS SENT IN THE NAME OF CHRIST JESUS

 

By Will Myers

God’s Holy Spirit works in different manners and those are the Comforter (Holy Ghost to humans) and the Spirit of Truth. The Comforter is emphasized below in the scriptures. It is more powerful than the Spirit Of Truth because Jesus said that the spirit within you is stronger than he that is in the world. Since the Spirit Of Truth as explained in John 15:26  is in the world and only speaks what He hears, not about Himself, and also testifies of Jesus Christ’s teachings. Humans hear God’s Truths in a fragmented manner from the world while accessing piece by piece, precept after precept, until all mysteries are revealed by God’s Holy Spirit; the glory and the power. This is the expedient works of the Holy Ghost, Comforter, that shall be with us forever. The works of God is to make us believe in whom He has sent; He has sent His Son, Christ Jesus. He is our Savior, providing our needs from the Father in His name.

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
 <space>

And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
