The Two Types of Creation Part [1] 10/22/2025 (Evening thought)

Revelation 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people.

The everlasting gospel spoken of in our first passage consists of 3 specific aspects of the gospel that are relevant to our day which feature some of the most significant truths that are to prepare the world for the soon coming of Christ. In those three messages of Revelation 14 you would not find anything that directly mentions Christ in His capacity as Redeemer, even though His redemption is implied by extension.

The reason for this is that His role as our Redeemer is not the problem in our day, it is His Creatorship that is being questioned by the majority of scientific and religious views. And because of this, the focus of the first message, written in our introductory passage, rests squarely on the great fact of creation and the issue of origins of species. This is the all-important question that’s on the front burner of the 1st angel’s message.

And it is the one that will bring earth’s final crisis to the forefront of the minds of earth’s inhabitants. The first of the three specific aspects deals with the universal issue of worship and calls our attention to the Creator of the heavens and the earth. Jesus is to be worshipped in His capacity as Creator, and in His capacity as Redeemer, but His role as Creator comes first, for without creating us there would be nothing to redeem.

Revelation 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!

When God’s Justice Is Questioned. Part [20] 10/21/2025 (Morning thought)

Daniel 4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

[Prophets & Kings pp 499] Nebuchadnezzar revoked the decree for the destruction of the wise men. Their lives were spared because of Daniel’s connection with the Revealer of secrets. And “the king made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon. Then Daniel requested of the king, and he set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel sat in the gate of the king.”

In the annals of human history, the growth of nations, the rise and fall of empires, appear as if dependent on the will and prowess of man. But in the word of God the curtain is drawn aside, and we behold, above, behind, and through all the play and counterplay of human interest and power, and passions, the agencies of the All-merciful One, silently, patiently working out the counsels of His own will.

We therefore end with a passage of Scripture that would help us to navigate all of the noise that has been accumulating for centuries. And it is the will of God that those individuals who are preparing for prime time, will harbor only the Biblical perspectives on God’s prerogatives, His instructions, and a balanced view of His love. In doing so we will avoid the snare of questioning His justice, whenever He begins His strange acts.

Deuteronomy 32:1 Give ear, O you heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. 4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.  

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
