The Two Types of Creation Part [11] 10/27/2025 (Evening thought)

Isaiah 14:19 But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.

[The desire of Ages pp 761] By shedding the blood of the Son of God, he had uprooted himself from the sympathies of the heavenly beings. Henceforth his work was restricted. Whatever attitude he might assume, he could no longer await the angels as they came from the heavenly courts, and before them accuse Christ’s brethren of being clothed with the garments of blackness and the defilement of sin. The last link of sympathy between Satan and the heavenly world was broken.

As we bring this first segment to a close, we owe it to ourselves to discover why the sacred truths about God, in His capacity as Creator are so important to the you and me in the here and now, and how they can be applied in your everyday experiences. Let us go back to the two basic methods by which The Lord creates. [1] He does not necessarily need any raw materials to bring things into existence. [2] He doesn’t need vast periods of time to get His will done.

Again, just to recap: [1] With evolution, you must have some sort of raw material in order to produce. [2] You will need vast periods of time for any kind of development. When the two kinds of creation employed by God are understood, it greatly changes our perspectives and our expectations of Him, whereas the guiding principles of evolution tend to place severe limits on what can be done.

Isaiah 40:25 To whom then will you liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One. 26 Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one fails.

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

The Two Types of Creation Part [10] 10/26/2025 (Morning thought)

Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

The two phrases: “Cast out” and “Cast out into the earth” represent two different casting out. When he was first cast out, the earth was not in existence and that’s the reason why the first phrase stops at cast out. The second casting out refers to that time at the cross, when he was forever banished from going even near the gates of heaven. Up until the Cross, satan and his angels could reach as far as the gates of heaven.

This is why the scripture tells us that he showed up when the sons of God, the representatives of the other unfallen worlds, were called to a summit. At that time satan showed up as the representative of earth, because he had succeeded in taking over the dominion from Adam, through transgression. Job 1: 6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them.

[Early Writings pp 39] There is perfect order and harmony in the Holy City. All the angels that are commissioned to visit the earth hold a golden card, which they present to the angels at the gates of the city as they pass in and out…. But after the Cross, satan and all his minions were barred forever from the gates of heaven, and they were restricted to this earth alone. These truths should be understood clearly by all, so as not to be confused by all the noise out there.

Revelation 12: 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God, day and night.

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