Figure= One.

I've been asked, but more frequently= hear the question asked on radio; “why did a Holy God create an evil SatanR= 21;? The answers coming from some of those on radio, indicates that they don't u= nderstand who God is and what He purposed in the beginning. My answer to this questio= n is simple. He didn't! I'm immediately confronted with the fact that all things were created by The Holy One. Of which I agree! Not only was all thi= ngs created by The Holy One, but a= ll things created by Him in the beginning was purposed to be Holy also! That is why I say, The Holy One did not create an evil Satan! Then I'm immed= iately asked; “is Satan a god that coexisted with the pre existing SPIRIT Jehovah”? Although there are many who believe this, my answer to the question is, absolutely not! To be able answer these questions and others, regarding why= bad things happen to good people, we must have a Biblical knowledge of who our = adversary is and why! So, let's go back to the beginning and build a Biblical underst= anding of our opposition.

Using the graph in figure one above; let's establish an imaginary point in time of our Biblical beginning. Holy creati= on, represented by C, is marked in= our made-up time table by a zero. In other words, this would be the very instant that THE SPIRIT started forming His Holy creation in the natural. On= e is the end of a 24 hour period as we know it, and the beginning of day two and= so on. W on the graph represents = THE SPIRIT’S wisdom exc= lusively, in the Spiritual! I hope you have learned from Chapters 1 and 2 that this= SPIRIT has the wisdom and power to create all things absolute, perfect, and Holy! You can see on the graph that the W is placed under the numb= er eight to the left of C, implyi= ng eight days before creation. It doesn't matter if it were eight days, eight years, or eight trillion years, the point is still the same; THE SPIRIT = Jehovah was there independently = and had the Holy wisdom to plan a Holy creation and to foresee any glitches in = His creation! Those that can not grasp this Holy knowledge are the ones that are led into believing in man’s wisdom, his philosophy that the world and= the world’s inhabits were the result of a big bang, and have evolved into= today’s order through Billion of years of evolution!= [2] This belief comes from man’s own n= atural reasoning and experimentation, which in the absent of THE SPIRIT’S Holy wisdom, is heavily persuaded by demonic= influences! That is why the Bible exhorts us in the book of James; <= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'>if any of you lack wisdom, let him ask= of THE SPIRIT, that giveth to all mankind liberally, and upbraide= th not; and THE SPIRIT’S Holy wisdom shall be given you.[3] We can have the intellect or knowledge of THE SPIRIT’S Holy wisdom that planed and purp= osed a Holy creation, if we seek and abide in His Holiness!= [4] However, if we fail to glorify and seek THE SPIRIT’S Ho= liness and deceitfully lie against His Holy Absolute True wisdom with harsh= contentious rivalry, promoting our own natural wisdom instead; think not that you will receive any Holy wisdom from THE S= PIRIT.= [5] This wisdom you promote descendeth not from T= HE SPIRIT above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife against THE SPIRIT is, there is confusion and every evil work. = But the wisdom that is from THE SP= IRIT above is first pure (Holy), t= hen peaceable, gentle, and ea= sy to be intreated, full of mercy and good (Holy) fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.= [6] In the verses above James further exhorts us not to fail to give glo= ry to THE SPIRIT for H= is Holy Wisdom; or to be a double minded,= [7] by having a harsh and strong objection to this Absolute True wisdom by deceiving ourselves with deliberate falsehoods, based on our own sensual and devilish= reasoning! James gives us this warning because it is the foundation of our relationship with THE SPIRIT! If we abi= de in THE SPIRIT’S Holy wisdom, we will be at peace with Him.= = [8] However, if we don’t then we are subject to His wrath. For the wrath of God is revealed from = heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold THE SPI= RIT’S truth in unrighteousness; Because that (Holy wisdom) which may be known of THE SPIR= IT is manifest in them; for THE SPIRIT hath shewed it unto them. Fo= r the invisible (Spiritual Holy wisdom) of THE SPIRIT from the creation of the= world are clearly seen, being understood by the (Holy) things that are made, ev= en THE SPIRIT’S (Ho= ly) eternal power and Godhea= d; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew T= HE SPIRIT’S Holy wisdom, they glorified him not as THE SPIRIT of Holy wisdom, neithe= r were thankful; but became vain in th= eir imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise (in their own wisdom), they became fools, And changed the g= lory of the uncorruptible THE SPIRIT into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore THE SPIRIT als= o gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of THE SPIRIT’S Holy wisdom int= o a lie, and worshipped and served the creature’s (wisdom) more than THE SPIRIT Creator’s (wisdom), who is blessed for ever.= [9] So everything that THE SP= IRIT purposed to create, was planned out of His Holy wisdom, to be perfect and H= oly. Does this sound anything like an evil Satan? No! And if Satan co-existed wi= th the preexisting SPIRIT before crea= tion, then Satan would also be deserving of the name Jehovah, since Jehovah means the preexisting one before creation. However there is only one Jehovah! So from= the time between W and D in figure one, there is only THE SPIRIT and His Holy Wisdom.

The D stands for THE SPIRIT'S Decree of the Spiritual= Holy One Son in the Spiritual. Therefore, this decree was before creation, because all things where created for the decreed Holy One Son and by the decreed Holy One Son! Satan takes this lack of knowledge of the beginning and wants people to think that he was back with = THE SPIRIT, before the Decree. = Just ask the question; when did Satan become Evil? You'll get an answer something like this. “I don't know for sure, but way back in time,” imply= ing that Satan and THE SPIRIT were coexisting and that they were both go= ds.

In the beginning The decreed Holy One Son = created (C) the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form,= and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the decreed Holy One Son = moved upon the face of the waters.= And the decreed Hol= y One Son said, let there be light and there was light.[10] The earth is the only thing in the Bible, during creation that mentions any resemblance of anything that is not perfect, good or Holy. Anything that The Holy One creates, that can stand by itself, has the potential of being without form and void; dead. In the case of earth, The Holy One move= d and light; life, good or THE SPIRIT'S Holy wisdom, was establishe= d! And The Holy One saw the light that it was good and The Ho= ly One divided the light from the darkness. And The Holy One= called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and the morning w= ere the first day.= [11] = We can see that on the very first day of creation, The Holy One establi= sh a division between light and darkness! Between THE SPIRIT'S Holy wisdom and earth’s natural wisdom! Eternal Holy life and death! Good = and evil! Holy and unholy! This is very important in our study of The Holy O= ne and our Spiritual battle. The= Holy One is Holy and eternal, therefore He has established a barrier between= Himself and death or iniquity! And T= he Holy One saw every thing that H= e had made, and, behold; it was Absolute, Eternal, and very Holy. And the evening and the morning were = the sixth day.= [12] = <= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'> For by The Holy One<= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'> were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thron= es, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created = Holy by The Holy One<= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'>, and for The Holy One![13]<= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'>
We now have moved up on our grap= h to Six days after the beginning of a Holy creation, with no reference to an un= holy Satan. Our only hint of evil comes back in day one when The Holy One separated the darkness from the light! And again I remind you, this is a very important factor, as The Holy One will never allow any darkness in His Holy Kingdom!= The Seventh day The Holy One rested and sanctified His work. On the Eight day[14] The Holy One commands Adam; <= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'>be Holy; for I am Holy.[15] And of every Holy tree of the garden Adam, <= i>thou mayest freely eat. But of the tree of the knowledge of Holiness and Iniquit= y, thou shalt not eat of it, for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.= [16] You shall have no fellowship with the unfruitful unholy works of darkness, but rather repro= ve them.[17]<= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'> See, I have set before thee this day = life and Holiness, and death and evil; In that I command thee this day to love THE SPIRIT Jehovah thy God, to walk in His Holy ways, and to keep His Holy commandments and His Holy statu= tes and His Holy judgments, that th= ou mayest live [18]<= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-family:Arial'> and multiply: and THE SPIRIT Jehovah thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess= it. But Adam if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them; I denounce unto you this day, that= ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your= days upon the land.[19]

Was Satan one of those other gods THE SPIRIT warned Adam about? And = if so, does that mean Satan co-existed with God? The Holy One is mak= ing it very clear to Adam, that there will be no darkness, no iniquity, no ungodliness, and no other gods, real or imaginary, in His Holy Kingdom. In = the Book of Romans, Paul tells us that Adam and Eve had no excuse,[20] regarding the fall. Now if there was an = unholy Satan and The Holy One = didn't warn Adam specifically about him, wouldn't that be grounds for an excuse? T= he reason that we can find no evidence of Satan or any other gods up to this p= oint is, because up to this point, they didn't exist. So where did these other g= ods come from? To answer this question and whether Satan was one of those other gods, we need to go back into creation and get an wider understanding of THE SPIRIT’S principalities and their powers.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations![21] Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the = King of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith The Holy One THE SPIRIT Jehovah<= span style=3D'mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'>: Thou sealest up the sum, fu= ll of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. Thou hast been in Eden the garden of The Holy One. Every precious stone wa= s thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold. The workman= ship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou w= ast created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth, and = The Holy One has set thee so. Thou wast upon the = Holy Mountain of The Holy One. Thou hast walked up and down in the midst = of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect (Holy) in thy ways from= the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.[22] By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned, therefore, I The Holy One will cast thee as profane out of th= e mountain of The Holy One, and I The Holy One will destroy thee, O covering cheru= b, from the midst of the stones of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty; thou hast corrupted thy wi= sdom by reason of thy brightness. I The Holy One will cast thee to the ground, and I will lay thee before kings, that they m= ay behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries[23] by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick, therefore, I The Holy One will bring forth a fire from the mid= st of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth i= n the sight of all them that behold thee.[24]

The Holy One created and anointed a Holy Cherub = by the name of Lucifer, who had the liberty, or the power of choice!= [25] Lucifer was in Holy heaven, the abode of The Holy One and the stars.= [26] Although Hol= y Lucifer is responsible for weakening the nation or church, he wasn’t created = for that purpose! Nor was he given the name Satan at his creation![27] Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisd= om, and perfect in beauty. The question here is; who or what is the sum = full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty? Traditionally you have been taught that t= his is implying to Lucifer, but it is not! Holy Lucifer was anointed to ministe= r to the sum full of wisdom and perfect in beauty, Holy Adam! Thou hast been = in Eden the Garden of The Holy One. The Garden is where The Holy One dwelt in Holiness with His Holy people. The world translates this as a natural place. However spiritually, The Holy One dwells in us; so spiritually the Garden of Eden is within us. Thou art the anoi= nted Holy Cherub that covereth= and I have set thee so. Thou wast upon the Holy Mountain of The Holy One. Thou hast walke= d up and down in the midst of the Stones of Fire.[28] You don't enter the Holy Mountain and you can't walk in the midst of the Holy Kingdom of The Holy One's Holy people, if there is any iniquity in you.= We can see that as Holy Lucifer, he had complete freedom to mingle with The Holy One and His Holy people in the Holy Kingdom. What was Lucifer's purpose in the Holy Kingdom? He was a covering Cherub, and was decreed and anointed by The Holy One to cover and protect. Cover what? Holy Adam! It makes no difference if he w= as there to protect Adam from falling into iniquity or to seal in Adam's Holiness. T= he fact is that The Holy One had separated Holiness from iniquity and ungodliness from day one of creation, and iniquity and ungodliness was the = only thing that Adam was forbidden to touch.= [29] Adam was Holy, just as The Holy One who created him was Holy, and that enabled The Holy One to dwell in him.= The Tree of Good and Evil is no more then the mixing, the defiling of Holiness = with iniquity and ungodliness.= [30]Remember what happened after = the fall? The Holy One drove out Adam and Eve (out of His Holy Garden of Eden), a= nd The Holy One placed at the east of the (Holy) Garden of Eden, Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turn= ed every way, to keep the way of the Tree of Life.[31] Before the fall the only thing th= at Holy Adam couldn't do or touch, was the Tree of Good and Evil. After the fall, he couldn't touch or enter into the Tree of Life. The <= st1:PlaceName w:st=3D"on">Holy Kingdom! Was Holy Lucifer decreed and anointed to guard and keep Adam from the Tree = of Good and Evil, just as the Cherubim's in the verse above, covered and kept = the Tree of Life after the fall? If we could pict= ure the Holy Garden of Eden in our mind in the beginning, we would see Holy Ada= m, The Holy One, and a perfect Holy Cherub, guarding against touching or enter= ing into iniquity. What went wrong?
Thou wast perfect, Holy, in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity, ungodlines= s, was found in thee. By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned, by rejecting Holiness, therefor= e, I will cast thee as profane, unholy, out of the mountain of The Holy One and I The Holy One will destroy thee, O covering Cheru= b, from the midst of the Stones of Fire, The Holy One’s Holy people. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy b= eauty; thou hast corrupted thy Holy wisdom by reason of thy brightness. I w= ill cast thee to the ground. I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of t= hine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. [32] What was the one thing that would cause The Holy One to destroy Lucifer? = Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, thy ungodliness! If anyone o= f The Holy One’s creations defiles the temple of The Holy One, him shall The Holy= One destroy; for the temple of The Hol= y One is Holy, which temple you are.[33]

The Holy One had put Holy natural Adam in His Ho= ly natural temple here on earth, both to reside and to preserve![34] If Adam destroyed or allowed the Holy temple to be defiled with iniquity and ungodl= iness, then The Holy One would cast Adam out of His Holy Kingdom into the s= hadows of death and outer darkness![35] Your temple was purposed for The Holy One and allowing iniquity or ungodliness to enter into it, defiles His Holy temple. Therefore God will d= rive you out of His Holy Kingdom to be destroyed just like he did Adam! Adam was= a principality with power! That is he was a first of his kind with choice! Li= ke Adam we too have the power of choice! To continue living in the shadow of d= eath of the first Adam and be destroyed, or to be born again by the second Adam,= [36] the Holy life giving SPIRIT, and l= ive in Holiness! However, for now we need to pause and ask the question; who was A= dam battling with spiritually after the fall? If you answered Satan, you are in= the majority. However, it is God! Satan was not the one who threw Adam out of t= he garden and forbid him to touch the tree of Life and it is not Satan that has the power to destroy Adams or your soul = or spirit in hell![37] Satan didn’t destroy Sodom and Gomorra or cause the great flood as an example of what is going to happ= en to those that live in ungodliness, God did! I recently heard a group of men discussing the subject of why bad things happen to good people. Each had th= eir own ideas. When I asked them who destroyed Sodom and Gomorra, not one of them said= God! When I asked them why they didn’t believe God could have done that, t= hey replied; “because God is love and he would be unjust if he did so!= 221; Is God unjust when He protects and preserves His Holiness?[38]

Back to our reference time chart= in figure one. We were at day eight after creation = [39] and THE SPIRIT was instructing Adam as to the options of his choice. Lucifer the anointed guar= ding Cherub was there also and heard every word of instruction to Adam. However = at this point in time Lucifer had not become an adversary to God! As to what p= oint in time from this moment until the fall, that Lucifer begin his plan to bec= ome an adversary, is uncertain. Nevertheless Lucifer of his own free will set in motion a plan to steal THE SPIRIT’S Holy Adam!= [40] Lucifer had a major problem. No one incl= uding Lucifer could pluck <= /span>Adam out of his Father’s hand.[41] Lucifer was helpless to bind the strong man, or THE SPIRIT, and take Ad= am by force. Lucifer was helpless to bind Adam, as long as he was abiding in THE SPIRIT. Realizing that he was powerless when it came to THE SPIR= IT, Lucifer devised a plan to steal, kill and destroy Adams Holy inheritance, knowing that THE SPIRIT would = cast Adam out of His security.

While here on earth, THE SPIRIT Jehovah savior Son, Je= sus, spoke parables to the public as they were able to hear. A parable is a story or an account of something in the natural here on earth that resembles a fact in = the Spiritual Kingdom. All parables without exce= ption were designed to reveal Spiritual mysteries of the <= st1:PlaceName w:st=3D"on">Holy Kingdom. Jesus would explain these parables to His disciples in private. To them and anyone seeking the Holy Kingdom, it was giv= en to know the mysteries of the Holy Kingdom. One of the= se parables stands alone in my opinion as describing what we have just learned about the early creation and fall of Adam.

There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round ab= out, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandm= en, and went into a far country. And when the time of the fruit d= rew near, The Holy One sent His servants to the husbandmen, that = they might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandmen took His servants, and beat one, and killed another, and sto= ned another. Again, He sent other servants more than the first, and they= did unto them likewise. But last of all He sent unto them = The Holy One Son, saying, they will reverence my Son. But when the husbandmen saw the S= on, they said among themselves, this is the heir, come, let us kill Him, and le= t us seize on His inheritance. And they caught Him, and cast Him out of the vineyard, and slew Him.[42]

In the Spiritual, the householder would be The Holy One! The builder of all things; who planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about and digged a winepress in it.= Vineyard is symbolic for people of the Kingdom! Hedged around is symbolic of separat= ing these people from coming together with anything that might defile them. Winepress is symbolic for producing fruit, wine; which is symbolic of blood. Everything inside this hedge would be called, The Garden of Eden. In the spiritual the Garden of Eden is THE SPIRIT’S temple or our bodies. If we look at this parable as describing our body, then the hedge would be our skin and the winepress wou= ld be symbolic for blood: the life of = all the flesh is in the blood.[43]

And He built a tower. Tower is symbolic for being able to watch and protect from a= ny direction. Lucifer would be t= he one assigned this role. And let it out to husbandmen. Adam is the husbandman. It was through Adam that all mankind would come. Adam was the one to produce H= oly fruit. And The Holy One blessed Adam, and The Holy = One said unto Adam, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and sub= due it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the ai= r, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.[44] Remember from our earlier understanding that Adam means; The Blood of God or the Blo= od of The Holy One! Remember also= that we said these parables were explained or given in the accessibility of ones understanding. For those who exercised little or no Spiritual understanding, this parable would be to them a vineyard. To others this parable would be a spiritual description of The Garden of Eden, while still others would see t= his parable as The Holy One creati= ng Adam and assigning him the Spiritual role of multiplying The Holy One’s Holy blood through out the entire earth. We would expect the parable to end with the householder sending<= span style=3D'mso-bookmark:FOOTNOTE_8'> servants that returned with the good news that in fact this Holy Blood was being multiplied. However instead we see Adam the husbandman rejecting the servan= ts hostilely and the hostile killing of the son of the householder, the heir to the vineyard. Why? Because the husbandman and his fruit wanted the inheritances= of the son! Why would the husbandmen and his servants want to kill the son? Th= ey wanted to steal something they didn’t have and that was eternal Life! After the fall, what was the one thing that Adam couldn't touch? The Tree o= f Eternal Life! What went wrong? Adam became disobedient and allowed a thieving Cheru= b to work in him, an adversary to the householder, a Cherub adversary that wante= d to be householder and receive fruits of disobedience from the Householder̵= 7;s vineyard. Not Holy fruits as purposed by the Householder, but unholy fruits. This Cherub thief came to <= /i>Adam and Eve for one reason; to steal, and to kill, and to destroy Adam&#= 8217;s Holiness.[45]

Lucifer had to bind Adam before he could spoil the house or the vineyard. Or else how can the Cherub enter = into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong ma= n? Then the Cherub will spoil his house![46] Adam was indeed the strong man and = had control over Lucifer. We see that Lucifer planed to steal The Holy One's= people and have a people of his own. This opposition to all that are called Holy is what earned him the name of Sata= n. Satan means; the adversary. Adam was the strongman of the vineyard; he was the one with authority and power to uphold that authority. In other words, if Adam = had any problem with Lucifer, then all he had to do was usurp his authority. If Lucifer rebelled then the householder, The Holy One, would abolish h= im and him only!

We have effectively answered one of our original questions of why would a Holy and loving God created an unholy adversary, Satan. He didn’t! He created a Holy Cherub that had the will and libe= rty to choose whether to remain in his Holy habitation[47] or rebel and move out on his own in ungodlines= s. This Cherub totally disregarded the consequences of The Holy One’s judgment[48] of those who become; unequally yoked togeth= er with unbelievers. For what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousne= ss? And what communion hath Holiness with iniquity?[49] The Holy One set the standard for His vineyard (Kingdom). This standard is called righteousness. Any deviation of this standard is called unrighteousn= ess. To put it simply, righteousness means the way it was decreed, that being Ho= ly! In the verse above we see that The Holy One will not tolerate any deviation from His Holy decree. The Holy One has decreed it and it is unchangeable. No mixing of Holiness and iniquity. Lucifer was created in Holiness, and because of all his beauty as light, he begin to think that he could survive by himself, outside of Holiness, which means that he could survive without abiding in The Hol= y One! Thinking that you can exist without The Holy One is what the Bible calls pride!

The words merchandise and trafficking come from the same Hebrew word. The word carries a modern natural meaning of buying, selling, or trading. I doubt if there was a Mall of America in the Garden of Eden, so this doesn't make sen= se, until we dig deeper into its Spiritual meaning of the word. I might add that this is where many mistakes are made interpreting the scriptures. We are qu= ick to use a modern meaning of the word, instead of digging for an archaic mean= ing that was more then likely used in Scriptures to convey a Spiritual meaning.= The interpretation of words change in meaning as years go by, and some dictiona= ries show you all of the meanings, leaving it up to you to determine how it was = used in that particular reading. The archaic meaning of traffic[50] is to go out from, deviate from. It implies experimentation with rebellion! So Lucifer begins to go out from The Holy One's decreed purpose of Holy light and function in the area of darkness that was not permitted. Let's ta= ke a moment and look at a verse that will explain this situation. But every m= an[51] is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when l= ust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin, and sin, when it is finished, bringe= th forth death.<= /span>[52] This verse explains what happened to Lucifer. The word lust means to have strong desires for something that is forbidden of The Holy One! Exa= mple: A young single male looks upon his neighbor's single daughter with a strong desire to marry. This is okay because for a single man to leave his parents= and marry a single female is honorable in the eyes of The Holy One. However, in that same situation, if the neighbor's daughter is married, that desire becomes unlawful, or forbidden of The Holy One. Lucifer lusted afte= r The Holy One's people (bride) to worshipping him and become his wife, which= was forbidden. Sin is brought f= orth when lust is conceived, that is the very moment you act to do something to bring= it to pass. Sin means to miss the mark, and the mark is The Holy One’s Holiness! This doesn't mean anything until= you realize that Lucifer was created a perfect Holy cherub. For Lucifer to miss= the mark, was for him to move away from what he was created for, and that was t= o be a Holy covering Cherub. To get Adam to worship him, would mean that Adam wo= uld have to move away from being the s= trong man of the house, and allow Lucifer to be god![53] Once you bind the strong man, then you can divide the spoil and succeed in defiling the dwelling place.[54] Then The Holy One will destroy the one who allowed His dwelling plac= e to be defiled. All this is extremely important, as we move towards understandi= ng the fall. Lucifer, wanted to be like The Holy One and have a people where he could be their Supreme Spirit and they would be his people. And th= at was forbidden in the Holy= Kingdom! No one cou= ld take The Holy One's Holy people out of His hands[55] So to get a people or church of his own, Lucifer had to weaken Adam. To do thi= s, he had to move Adam away from The Holy One's Holiness, knowing that = if he did, The Holy One would cast Adam into outer darkness.[56] Adam and Eve had been told that they were never to depart from The Holy One, so Lucifer became the serpent. The word serpent is being commonly interpret= ed snake. Remember what we learned a couple of paragraph back? Sometimes we ch= oose a modern translation over an archaic original. That is what was done here a= lso. The archaic meaning of the word serpent is to be a beguiler or to beguile.<= i> But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent[57] beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from t= he simplicity that is in The Holy One.[58]

Lucifer, means; morning star, shining one, or light bearer. This light bearing perfe= ct Cherub became Satan when he purposed to be in opposition to man and The Holy On= e.[59] He became the serpent (beguiler), wh= en he set out to deceive (beguile) Adam and Eve. We could spend a lot of time her= e on this subject however, at this point; I'm just going to emphasize some forem= ost facts. First, we need to realize that Lucifer, Satan or Serpent, was a beautiful sight. Just go back and read your Bible's description of him. Sec= ond, that he was an anointed Cherub sent to minister. Lucifer was created and anointed to minister to Adam and Eve. We see beauty and trust because The Holy One put him there, pure and perfect. However this is not what is c= ustomarily believed. In its place we see him as a snake, or a man with red horns, one = who could be picked out of a crowd. We can now see what I meant when I stated t= hat Satan was not created. Lucifer a beautiful Holy Cherub was. Lucifer became Satan of his own will, in opposition to The Holy One's will.

You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He = was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is= no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he= is a liar, and the father of it.[60] This verse confirms what is stated above. Lucifer (Satan, Devil, Serpent), was t= he father[61] of lies. What he spoke was what he desired and lusted for. He falsified The Holy One wisdom or what The Holy One had said or decreed. Let's = go back and take a brief look at the fall. First we need to look at the graph = for a time reference. From day eight through day ten The Holy One instru= cted Adam according to The Holy One’s will. Sometime between day ten and day twelve, Lucifer began lusting for The Holy One’s people and purpo= sed in his mind to become the adversary[62] of THE SPIRIT. In his mind, he was planning the fa= ll, and consequently his victory over Adam. Lucifer became the Serpent[63] the very moment he approached eve with the intent to deceive her. On our ti= me table this would be more then likely be on day thirteen.[64]
Now the beguiler<= i> was more subtil than any beast of the field which The Holy One THE SPIRIT Jehovah had made. And= he said unto the woman, Yea, hath The Holy One said, you shall not eat of every tree of the garden?[65] This verse states that Lucifer was = more subtil than any beast of the field. It doesn't necessary say that he was a beast of the field. However his identity as being more subtil is clearly portrayed. Look at how he approaches Eve. He quotes The Holy One = falsely! The Holy One di= dn't say Adam couldn't eat from all of the trees of the Garden, just not from the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil! Eve is quick to correct him; And the woman said unto the beguiler= , we may eat of the fruit of the Trees of the Garden: But of the fruit of the tr= ee which is in the midst of the Garden, The Holy One hath said, you shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die= .[66] Eve knew what was decreed. I've heard those who say that she didn't fully under= stand, because she added her own; "neither shall you touch it, lest you di= e." But I believe that she understood more than some of us, because The Holy= One doesn't even want us to touch it. And the beguiler said unto the woman, you shall not surely die: F= or The Holy One doth know that in the day you eat thereof, then your eyes s= hall be opened, and you shall be as The Holy One, knowing good and evil.[67] You shall not surely die. Where did the beguiler get this idea? Was he just hoping that this statement wasn't true, or did he really understand what death The Holy One was referring to? Remember= the word trafficking? We learned it means to go out from. Lucifer had been doin= g a lot of experimentation, which could have been a factor in that statement. L= ook closely at this statement. One little word is all that is changed to make t= he statement false. You shall not surely die. Have you found it? You shall (not) surely die: The word is not. If you take not out, the quote= is true. For THE SPIRIT doth know that in the day you eat thereof, then your eyes sha= ll be opened, and you shall be as THE SPIRIT, knowing good and evil. This is a false statement because THE SPIRIT knows no evil![68] If you have a relationship with evil (darkness), then you will be separated fr= om The Holy One. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband = with her; and he did eat. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew t= hat they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves ap= rons.[69]

What happened in the fall? You = will hear every thing from Eve having sex with the serpent, to eating an apple. Let's look at what really happened. For the wrath of The Holy One= is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men,= who hold the truth in unrighteousness.[70] Because that which may be known of = The Holy One[71] is manifest in them for The = Holy One hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of The Holy One from the crea= tion of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even The Holy One’s eternal power and Godhead, so that = they are without excuse. Becau= se, that when they knew The Holy One, they glorified Him n= ot as The Holy One Sup= reme, neither were thankful, but became vain in their imaginations, and their foo= lish heart was darkened. Profe= ssing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the uncorruptible Holy One into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.[72] Verse 18 makes it quite clear th= at The Holy One will not tolerate anything outside of what He decreed. Verses = 19 and 20 makes it very clear that Adam and Eve understood that light, not darkness, was The Holy One's will. Verses 21 through 23 show their desire to worship, follow, = and listen to anything other then The Holy One’s wisdom. They were breaking the f= irst commandment. Thou shall have no other gods before The Holy One. Idolatry! Idolatry is giving gl= ory to anything other then The Holy One. What Adam and Eve should have said= in their temptation was what Jesus said at His; Again, the devil taketh The Holy One up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth = The Holy One all the kin= gdoms of the (natural) world, a= nd the glory of them. And saith unto The Holy One, all these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith The Holy One unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: fo= r it is written, Thou shalt worship The Holy One THE SPIRIT Jehovah Supreme, and Him only shalt thou= serve.[73] To get Adam and Eve to worship h= im was the intention of the Beguiler in the garden. Satan wanted a kingdom of peop= le that knew good and evil, knowing that he could rule over them. Adam and Eve should have declared what they knew. Thou shalt worship The Holy = One THE SPIRIT Jehovah Supreme, and Him only shalt thou= serve. It makes no difference what o= r who you worship, real or imaginary, other then The Holy One, the results= are the same. You are worshipping Satan as god! What say I then? That the id= ol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? = But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice = to devils, and not to The Holy One. And I would not that you should have fellowship with devils. You cannot drink the cup of The Holy One THE SPIRIT Jehovah Supreme, and the cup of devils. You cannot be partakers of The Holy One’s<= /b> table, and of the table of devils.= [74] When you glorify something other than <= b>The Holy One, then you're in fact worshipping the Devil or his demons. You cannot be both good (Holy) and bad (evil). A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure= of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the he= art his mouth speaketh[75]= = = No man can serve two masters: for either he will= hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise t= he other. Ye cannot serve THE = SPIRIT= and mammon.[76] You are either one or the other. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work, = only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be rev= ealed, whom The Holy One shall consume with the power of His decree, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming. Even him, whose coming is after t= he working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish, because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause The Holy One shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie, that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had plea= sure in unrighteousness.= [77] Paul understood what was going on in the Garden and in the desert with Jesus. Satan wants people to worship him. He = is looking for a dwelling place where he can rule. The mystery of iniquity<= /i> is Satan's plan to get people to worship him. For example: we give glory to= an idol called Santa Claus. We are led to believe that this is a Godly man who goes around doing good. However, it is part of the mystery of iniquity; the= tacit worship of Satan.
