Good day, I am engaging in a difficult and most peculiar subject. By no means am I to find documentation to support the overall concept of what I am delving into, so the grace of the lord shall need to define what is to be thought upon and what is to be delved into. I was in the process of researching other writings on heresies and this topic came to mind.
The laws of spiritual attributes concerning gifts and denizens, has been a mystery to many people for quite some time. For some time people have tried to develop a way of identifying ghosts and other phenomena as either real, superstitious hoax, ignorance, charlatans, Hysterical or some other intuitive undercover activity that causes people to believe in things they cannot see.
Short of becoming one of those purveyors of false belief’s in something that has little or no merit I am attempting to simply begin identifying what Laws are.
As we begin I don’t ask anyone for an open mind, keep it closed or open it, as you see fit, but prove what I write on your own merit, I will try to cover both pro and con, and not attempt to sway opinion to my findings. Simply accept what it is you wish to accept and accept what god provides your eyes to see.
Let us begin
What is a LAW?
We as a society live by a certain rule, do unto others as you would have others do unto you. This is a general code, not perfect as the human mind can become desperately wicked, the golden rule. It is based on the thought that no one likes to be treated poorly, so don’t treat another poorly. Sort of an, “Karma” type of retribution is that if you do something to someone bad then bad will come to you. Now why am I mentioning this? Laws are accepted and rejected based upon this type of a premise in the land of men. But in Gods kingdom, bad things occur as well as good things. God is not biased, so both good and evil and the ability to perform both are in his power to determine and use as he sees fit. So you will find both acceptable laws and unacceptable laws in the study of God. Anything in the MIND of god is not a law, because it is not a created thing. Everything that is created is created not out of the mind of god, but in Gods “speaking it into existence”. Thus every animal, plant, insect, element is spoken into existence and placed in its place and determined what to do by God. This “speaking” brings us into the laws of creation. The Law is our pendulum for salvation, There is both obedience and disobedience thus both life and death in the law.
Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish [ought] from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Law of creation
Now regarding everything that is created there is a law that keeps this created thing from being and doing something that we don’t find natural as we see it today? Why doesn’t a poppie flower hunt down and kill and eat an antelope, or why doesn’t an elephant bubble up from beneath the earth and spew and become the formation of land? Why doesn’t the wind simply one day just stop moving across the planet and simply hurl itself into the ocean. It is not enough to be created. But the thing that is created must have a design to it’s creation. It must have a reason for it’s creation.
(Psalms 33:1-9)
Everything that comes from god comes with a law of what it is to do and how it is to interact with it’s environment.
(genesis 1 – God said, then at the end God Saw)
Piranha are fish that swim in the water and eat flesh, they keep the waters cleaned and remove decay. Lions kill and eat prey keeping the destruction of herbivores down on the land sustaining both predator and prey. Even though gods initial law in creation to the animals of the planet were for them only to eat the “green herb. I submit:
Genesis 1:30 and to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was soThese things we as human observers call “nature” or natural instinct, but why doesn’t a lion eat grass? Well it must eat meat, because it’s body is designed to kill and eat. The garden of Eden was a beautiful place, God is said to have placed both animals, plants and insect including mankind in one location and they existed together. It never stated that lions or wolves a something else killed something and ate it in order to survive. We just pretty much assumed that the rich cluster of herbs and game was ideal for each animal on the planet at the time to sustain them.
That’s just the earths/gardens environment since it seems that God created everything on the planet as we see it now demonstrated in nature. Not true, God populated the planet with animals then God moved mankind into a certain place and gave both man and animals the same law to eat the herb. So when did this law change? After the fall, when god had to “kill” the two animals in order to cover mans sinful presentation. When mankind died in the garden after eating of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, what kind of death was it? The serpent told them they wouldn’t “surely” die but since he didn’t tell them what would die in them, he committed a great sin and in honesty killed off mankind from the law he was created with. Not only did he enable the breaking of mankind’s law but he destroyed the law given to the beasts and fowl and fish in the sea as well. It opens them up to be used and to perform activities not in their original design.
I will state once again that everything created has a law, because of gods speaking that thing into existence. Mankind was created with a law spoken by god to be fruitful and multiply and to have dominion upon the earth. We have a basic fundamental law in our creation bestowed upon Adam .
(Genesis 1:28)
This law was passed down through the generations of eve in the command”….be fruitful and multiply”. Thus any law given to Adam from creation was our law as well. In speaking Adam into existence the law given to Adam was in place in Adam. He instinctively knew how to interact in the manner of the law of creation upon the physical form of mankind’s creation. The animals all ate the herbs and so did man.
Through the Creation of man we are indwelled with our law. Man was to have dominion over the earth, tend to the needs and desires and to care for everything upon the earth, and man was to multiply upon the earth so that as the earth’s denizens grew greater in number man would be able to compensate.
The laws apply to the denizens of the lords hosts as well. As these laws determine the overall functionality of Gods kingdom, the sons of God are created with the expressed intent that they will willingly perform the will of god in their creation.
Strong angels can hold the other angels in check while the others perform the desires of god as he intends. No angel operates outside the will of God by their own desire to do so. God has never forced even those created with the expressed intent to operate within the guidelines of their created laws. They all have the ability to do that which is not desired of god. They must reap the rewards of their actions however. Thus taking us to what happens when they break that simple law of creation. We all die when the law of god is broken. The form of death varies however.
Laws of perspectives
What is meant by the laws of perspectives? The perspective is that which is defined by the one performing the viewing of an action, also the relationship of aspects of a subject to each other and to a whole. If one man see’s an event he interprets that event in his mind as one thing or another. He may apply many different possibilities but once the dust settles, he generally chooses one road or the other. He establishes his belief of the situation based upon what he sees as the most valid position on the matter. Two men viewing an event may come to the same conclusion on the matter or two completely different conclusions altogether, or two similar positions but expressed differently. The ability to determine for ourselves the best course of action in any given scenario is the law of choice, or the law of perspectives. Everything created has a choice in its life and that choice comes with ramifications of one type or another, it is the pendulum. A lion was created by God to eat an herb. Now we see lions eating other animals, thus the lion changes position in perspective and begins to slay and eat other animals. This goes against the initial intention, because it is against what god told the beasts of the earth to do. So what does god do? Does he slay all animals? YES
Remember the story of Noah, his vengeance covered both man and beast and he did save every beast on the planet, he probably didn’t even kill every animal on the planet, but what he did do was exact vengeance upon creation and then gave the surviving creation new laws.
Whether you allow a belief of the flood in “Gilgamesh’s version or in the Moses biblical account, the fact remains that in relation to God, The world went through a “cleansing. Through that flood, thus it is important to note that the perspective of the indented laws to mankind and beast was altered.
The laws of eating herbs was closed, they could now eat meat, the laws of multiply upon the earth was closed and thus the ability to choose not to have children was available “so to speak” the law of eating of the tree of knowledge was closed and thus men could seek knowledge on their own behalf. These things were commenced through the flood.
One of the things about baptism is that it is an “emulation” of the flood. The flood itself represented a commencement of LAW, In other words all that was given the law, and had broken the law died in the flood, as far as god was concerned. Since Noah and his sons were redeemed through their obeying the law, they were spared the judgment of the law. Yet because they were products of creation they were still subject to sin, and could therefore break any law given there after. What laws were given to moses?
Genesis 8
- I will not again curse the ground anymore because(for mans sake) of man. Why-because the imagination of mans heart is evil from “HIS” youth. (reference to the curse upon Adam as being revoked here)
- Neither will God smite (kill) every living thing again. (he will not cleanse the earth by killing everyone again)
- As long as the earth exists God will tend to it.
Genesis 9
- And the fear and the dread of man will be upon every beast and every fowl of the air and all that moves upon the earth and upon the fishes of the sea and into the hand of man are they delivered. (The beasts of the earth are ours to eat)
- He told Noah and his sons to be fruitful and multiply as his seed will be blessed. (this is different than the law given to mankind)
- Every living moving thing shall be meat for man, as well as the green herb.
- The flesh of men we are not to eat and if you do kill and eat man, then every beast and every man can be used to kill that man that does this thing. (cannibalism is unacceptable) My guess is that prior to the flood this must have been occurring to some unacceptable scale. Historical evidence suggests that many early peoples practiced cannibalism. Perhaps certain groups were given titles and names, which is a consistent documented event in the bible (genesis 6:4), associating them with these practices and many mythological stories grew out of peoples interaction and migration of these tribes. This gives rise to the belief of “devourers of souls” structure in demons on earth. Just a thought mind you.
- Whoever murders a man, his life is forfeit, because God made man to live.
- And “YOU” now be fruitful and multiply. (this is to mankind when he used “you” he is stating “everything that you are” so to speak.)
- And the covenant was established with Noah his sons and their seed (meaning mankind, and all beasts that existed afterwards,
- That the Bow would be the token covenant that signified God will no longer kill all things in a flood again.
These are the laws and covenant upon the flesh of every man that exists today, be they believers or non-believers they are the basic laws upon mankind, these are life. They are not much different in overall structure from the laws given to the “children of Israel”, but there are definitely fewer.
He also gave Laws to Abraham after he was called out.
Genesis 17
1 Walk before me and be thou perfect (now looking into this a little more is a whole sermon that may take like two days of intensive listening, but I will be brief…he was to be perfect because the instructions god was giving him were perfect. So if he “obeyed god” we would not err.
2. Covenant, He would multiply the seed of Abraham
a. Father of many nations…. (source of the believers of god in both Judaism and Christianity)
3. Covenant – there will be a continuation of the covenant with the seed of Abraham, and it won’t stop with his initial children but commence with his children’s children.
4. Covenant – All the land of canaan will be the inheritance of the children of the seed of Abraham in which to dwell.
5. Token that the covenant is remembered by God will be that every man child will be circumcised.
Now I won’t go into all the laws given to Moses, because they are too numerous to mention, But you get the gist of where I’m coming from. Laws are established by god in the basic of format for mankind through Noah, then to the children of Israel through Abraham then to the nation of Israel through the LAW Messianic.
So what of Christ?
As I’m speaking of laws and such, what about the Christians, what laws are we given?
Well we all as being mankind are subject to the laws given to mankind through Noah. That is that God expects those laws to be followed by mankind. If we sin it is because we as humans have broken one of those laws. Now looking at the laws given to Moses, one would ask where have I broken a law unto God to be called a Sinner?
I state the following which has made us all sinners, for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth. Now, one would say OK, but you never mentioned there was a law that covered this. I say to this, yes I did, I just didn’t mention it directly. The bible states that, God will no longer curse the ground because of man’s evil thoughts. In other words, because mankind will break any law given him by God, then God considers all mankind evil and sinners from their youth.
This seems a bit of a stretch for those who are looking at it, because it seems that I am saying “because you are going to do evil, god considers you evil”. Gnostics believed in this manner which was why it was easy for them to come up with the Valentinism and the Marcionite doctrines.
What I am stating is that the flaw exposed (nice way of putting it) of mankind in the garden and the laws given thereafter are still in effect not because of what God placed on man, but of what Man has come to be because of the knowledge he has acquired. Is this to say that Knowledge is the root of all evil, NO, but the pursuit of knowledge, leads one down the road of evil intentions.
What knowledge? Gnosticism is the pursuit of knowledge. Now am I stating that God wants us “ignorant” of things in this life? NO, the knowledge we are to seek is in God himself. Through our pursuit of God we are to approach his word as children ready to be taught by the spirit he has imparted unto us through Jesus Christ. There is what man can glean of god, and what God can teach of himself. These are two separate paths of obtaining knowledge, not the same knowledge however. Two separate ones.
Wide is the path of the unrighteous, but straight and narrow if the path of the redeemed. Why? Is it because more people are evil? No, Its because righteousness is defined by the validation of the holy ghost in logical reasoning. While non-validated conclusions based upon self validated points are the stuff of unrighteousness, or non-validation.
If a man is righteous, he is righteous because of what? Because the law outlines is actions as such? No, because the spirit of God agrees with the actions taken.
You say, but we have teachers, preachers, deacons, ministers that bring the word of the lord unto us, Do we not need a church in this case?
We are instructed by the apostles to adhere to the ministry of the church, for it profits us well in our understanding of the kingdom of God, nevertheless we are also encouraged in learning of the very same holy spirit imparted unto us by our king. Knowledge of another is that mans knowledge, your knowledge must be sound and founded, it must be validated by the holy-ghost, Not your own logical conclusions.
The under-Shepard job is to assist the Shepard. The flock belongs not to the assistant but to the owner of the flock. We do not lend such title of nobility in the kingdom to anyone other than the shepard. Too many people get caught up with the under-shepard rather than with Christ, yet they relegate within themselves that they have a relationship with Christ.
If you can’t distinguish between the voice of the law-presenter and the law-maker, then you have a serious problem. The emissary is not greater than the king who sent him.
