00:15 Welcome to "Battles of Faith."
00:16 We're your host, Ivor and Atonte Myers, 00:19 and we're with Power of the Lamb Ministries. 00:23 You know when you are lost, you need a map. 00:26 I know that, we've been lost many times 00:29 driving and praise God, we didn't have a map, 00:32 but we had a GPS. 00:34 And that helped us to find, where we needed to go. 00:37 And, God, has been so good, 00:40 that He has given us a map, 00:42 a blueprint to lead us home, to show us how we can 00:47 have salvation and live in heaven eternally with Him. 00:50 That's right, Atonte, this program 00:52 that we're gonna be doing this, 00:54 this 13 part series is actually showing, 00:57 God's Plan of Salvation, in such a clear way 01:01 that none need be confused as to how to be saved. 01:05 We're gonna be covering the entire Plan of Salvation, 01:11 from the Fall of Lucifer, 01:12 all the way down to the end of time. 01:14 And so if you've ever wondered 01:17 how you could get a clear picture of the, word of God, 01:21 this is the right series you've tuned into. 01:24 And we're excited about what, God, is gonna be teaching us 01:29 through His word. 01:30 And so we invite you to get your Bibles 01:33 and we want to start of 01:34 with the Book of Hebrews, Chapter 4. 01:36 We're gonna be discussing in this particular program, 01:40 the Fall of Lucifer from Heaven. 01:42 How the controversy began 01:46 and what that first war was all over? 01:50 And you know, I'm so excited that we're starting 01:52 there at the beginning of the rebellion, 01:56 or where, Lucifer, first fell, 01:57 because so many people have questions about that. 01:59 They don't understand 02:01 how this could happen, I mean in such a-- 02:03 In a perfect place, that's right. 02:04 And so there is always many questions about that. 02:07 People who aren't sure about the Bible or don't know 02:10 if they believe their God, in God, or not, 02:13 they're always asking that question. 02:15 How could this happen, in such a perfect place? 02:17 I think it's also important, you know Atonte that, 02:21 if we're not certain about how the war began? 02:24 What it was over? 02:26 As Christians, we run the risk of not knowing 02:32 what we're fighting for in this day and age. 02:36 So I think it's critical that we-- 02:39 that we understand the issues that were involved 02:42 in that first conflict, so that we can better 02:44 understand the conflict that we face on earth in our time. 02:49 That's right, because if we don't understand, 02:51 then we can become very complacent. 02:52 That's right, but, when you understand and you have, 02:56 just you understand your purpose, 02:58 then you can be really engaged and it's exciting. 03:01 Yeah, and we're excited just reading this Bible study. 03:03 Alright so, let's go 03:05 to the Book of Hebrews, Chapter 4. 03:08 And Atonte, would you read for me verse 1 and verse 9? 03:13 Okay, Hebrews Chapter 4 verse 1 reads, 03:17 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left 03:22 us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem 03:25 to come short of it." 03:26 Okay, and I'm going to stop right there, 03:29 a little bit of background, what's going on here is, 03:31 Paul, is writing and he is, 03:34 he is admonishing the Christians 03:36 of his day to fear, to-- 03:41 Seem strange, yeah, yeah! 03:42 Fear, he wants-- he wants you to fear. 03:44 Right, what does he wants them to fear. 03:45 Well, well the story of-- the story that comes to mind, 03:50 the story that, Paul, is actually relating back to. 03:52 He is making a comparison 03:53 between the children of Israel and their journey 03:56 into the Promised Land and our journey 03:59 into the Kingdom of Heaven. 04:01 He says, "Let us fear, lest a promise being left 04:03 to us of entering into his rest 04:06 any of us should seem to come short of it." 04:10 The children of Israel had been led out 04:12 of Egyptian captivity and they were journeying 04:15 to this Promised Land, the Land of Canaan. 04:19 And we know that many of them did not make it, 04:22 because they either murmured were complaining, 04:26 or just rebelled in the sight of God. 04:29 And so many of them did not make it 04:30 into the Promised Land and, Paul, is basically telling us 04:33 here that we too are on a journey and we must be careful, 04:38 lest we are on that journey, 04:41 begin to murmur as they murmured. 04:43 But that's just little bit of background. 04:45 We really want to get into verse 9 04:47 because verse 9, reads this, 04:50 it says "There remaineth therefore 04:52 a rest to the people of God." Now again-- 04:57 Some of the promise, there is a promise 04:58 and this rest once again is speaking about that promise 05:03 that to come in the future. 05:04 It's talking about the heavenly Canaan, 05:07 the Kingdom of Heaven. 05:08 We're all on the journey from this world 05:11 into the Kingdom of Heaven. 05:13 And we don't want to murmur, 05:15 or complain, or make the same mistakes 05:18 that the Israelites made, that kept them 05:21 out of the earthly promised land. 05:23 But there is something interesting about this verse, 05:24 that's going to give us an understanding 05:27 of the great conflict in heaven and how it started, 05:30 because the word here, rest, in verse 9 05:33 is the Greek word, "Sabbatismos, Sabbatismos." 05:39 If you consider this, the word "Sabbatismos" 05:42 it actually means rest. 05:44 And because we know that, God, 05:47 here is speaking about the Kingdom of Heaven, 05:49 we understand that heaven is God's rest 05:53 or we might call it His, 05:56 the Greek word His Sabbatismos. 06:00 Heaven is a land of rest. 06:04 It's a land of peace, where we get to rest 06:07 from the trials of this world, then the hardships. 06:10 And so, well, we need to understand a little bit 06:13 about how heaven is, is considered 06:16 to be a land of rest. 06:18 Wanna go to the Book of Leviticus, 06:20 Chapter 26 because just as we're looking 06:24 forward to the land of rest, the Bible described, 06:28 Canaan, in the Old Testament as a land of rest. 06:33 In Leviticus 26, we're gonna discover 06:35 what it means, when it says 06:37 the land is at rest. 06:38 Leviticus 26 verse 33. 06:41 Okay, get me right, you read that Atonte. 06:43 "And I will scatter you among the heathen, 06:45 and I will draw out a sword after you, 06:48 and your land shall be desolate, 06:49 and your cities waste." 06:52 And it took, follow it to verse 35. 06:54 "Then shall the land enjoy her Sabbath, 06:57 as long as it lieth desolate, 06:59 and ye be in your enemies' land, 07:01 even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her Sabbath. 07:05 As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest, 07:08 because it did not rest in your Sabbath, 07:11 when ye dwelt upon it." 07:13 Okay, so, the land was set to be at rest 07:17 when the people where obedient to God. 07:19 When there was disobedience in the land 07:21 there was no rest, 07:23 There was no rest, we might say 07:25 there was unrest in that land. 07:27 And so this is one of the definitions of what it means 07:29 for a land to be at rest. 07:31 We know that heaven was a land of rest, 07:35 because all the angels way back 07:38 in a distant past were, in harmony with God. 07:41 They were all submitted to the, will of God. 07:44 There's another verse we wanna look at 07:45 its found in the Book of Judges, Chapter 3 and verse 30. 07:50 Judges 3, verse 30. 07:52 "So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel 07:57 and the land had rest for score years." 08:00 Okay, so once again we see here, 08:02 this concept of land having rest 08:05 and in this particular context, 08:07 because there was no war in the land, 08:10 it is said that the land was at rest. 08:13 So basically, we're simply seeing here 08:15 that for land to be at rest, it means that land had. 08:19 There was no war, there were conflicts going on. 08:22 And all the inhabitants of that land 08:24 were submitted to the, will of God. 08:26 So as we take this concept, this understanding 08:29 of what it means for land to have a rest. 08:32 And see that in the New Testament 08:34 heaven is actually called God's Sabbatismos. 08:38 We see that heaven is a place of rest, 08:41 a place where there is no war. 08:45 Where everyone -- And where there is perfect obedience. 08:47 Perfect obedience to will of God. 08:49 So let's take this concept now. 08:50 We're gonna go all the way back 08:52 to the beginning of time, as we can understand it. 08:56 Right, a heaven was God's Sabbatismos, 09:00 His place of rest. 09:03 All the angels were in perfect harmony 09:06 to the, will of God. 09:08 There was no war, there was no strife. 09:10 We can understand heaven being God's Sabbatismos, 09:13 because this was the law if you will, 09:17 that ruled the land. 09:20 But, we know, that according to the, word of God, 09:22 there was a change, because Book of Revelation, 09:25 Chapter 12, verse 7 says, "And there was war in heaven. 09:30 Michael and His angels fought against the dragon 09:32 and the dragon fought and his angels. 09:34 So watch this, here we have this environment 09:37 of perfect rest, perfect peace, perfect harmony. 09:41 But then, and its called God's what? 09:43 His Sabbatismos, His place of rest, 09:46 His land of rest. 09:48 But then we now have introduced this war, 09:52 this conflict introduced by none other 09:56 then an angel named Satan. 09:59 Or Lucifer, Or Lucifer, at that time, 10:02 so what did, Lucifer break, 10:06 when he began this rebellion in heaven. 10:10 He broke God's Sabbatismos. 10:14 The rest, The rest, The peace. 10:16 He brought unrest and we might say civil unrest 10:20 to the Kingdom of Heaven. 10:22 So what we need to discover now is, how is it all, 10:26 what is it that, that Lucifer did, 10:28 to bring about this state of unrest. 10:31 So let's go to the Book of Ezekiel, Chapter 28, 10:34 because Ezekiel 28 is going to give us some 10:37 further insight into this conflict, how it began? 10:41 So Ezekiel Chapter 28, let's begin with verse 13 10:45 and we will read to verse 14. 10:48 "Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God, 10:50 every precious stone was thy covering, 10:53 the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, 10:56 the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, 11:00 the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold. 11:02 The workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes 11:06 was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. 11:10 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth 11:12 and I have set thee so. 11:14 Thou wast upon the holy mountain of God, 11:17 thou hast walked up and down 11:18 in the midst of the stones of fire." 11:21 I'll read one more verse to 15, 11:23 "Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day 11:25 that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee." 11:29 Okay, so, here the Bible is telling us about this angel 11:33 that was created, this covering cherub 11:36 and the word cherub simply means 11:38 an angel that was created. 11:40 And is important to understand that this angel 11:43 was not created imperfectly, but rather perfectly. 11:48 The angel is said to be a covering cherub 11:52 and this is where our study really takes a turn, 11:56 because in order to understand what, Lucifer, 11:58 actually did in heaven. 12:00 What was his role in heaven? 12:02 We need to understand this term covering cherub? 12:06 Because what was he covering. 12:07 Right, what was he covering? 12:08 Well, to understand this term, 12:10 we've to go back to an Old Testament 12:15 map if you will that, God, had instructed, Moses, 12:18 and the children of Israel to build, 12:20 it's called the sanctuary. 12:23 We've a nick name for it, we call it God's GPS, 12:27 because that sanctuary basically contained 12:30 the entire Plan of Salvation 12:32 and the entire story of Salvation. 12:35 It was like a little story book, 12:36 like a little object lesson that, God, 12:40 had instructed, Moses, to build. 12:41 And as you look at the articles of the sanctuary 12:46 and how it was build and how it was structured, 12:48 you begin to see, lessons that actually 12:51 reveal the Plan of Salvation, even down to how, 12:55 Lucifer, fell and what caused him to stumble. 12:59 Okay so, we're gonna take a look 13:01 at one of the rooms in particular that 13:03 God, have instructed, Moses, to build in this sanctuary. 13:06 Now before you read Exodus 25, Atonte, 13:09 just wanna stress that this, 13:12 this most holy place was like a miniature model 13:15 of the throne room of God. 13:17 So as we read we're gonna, I want you pay attention 13:20 to what you are reading, what you are hearing, 13:21 because you're gonna catch a allusions of God's throne 13:25 and He is the foundation of His throne. 13:27 So let's go ahead and look at Exodus 25, verse 17 to 21. 13:32 It says "And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold, 13:37 two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, 13:41 and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof. 13:44 Okay pause right there, I know I'm sorry but, 13:47 consider this mercy seat, this mercy seat basically 13:50 represented the throne of God. 13:52 And that's why we, you know, talk about 13:54 coming boldly to the throne of grace 13:57 that we may obtain mercy in the time of need. 14:00 So this mercy seat again was a symbol of God's throne. 14:04 Okay let's read on. 14:06 "And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, 14:08 of beaten work shalt thou make them, 14:11 in the two ends of the mercy seat. 14:14 And make one cherub on the one end, 14:17 and the other cherub on the other end 14:19 even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims 14:23 on the two ends thereof. 14:25 And the cherubims shall stretch forth 14:27 their wings on high, covering the mercy seat 14:30 with their wings, and their faces 14:32 shall look one to another, toward the mercy seat 14:36 shall the faces of the cherubims be. 14:38 And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark 14:42 and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony 14:45 that I shall give thee." 14:46 Okay, so very profound thought here. 14:49 We've the mercy seat which is symbolic of God's throne. 14:53 But that mercy seat is resting upon something, 14:56 it's called the Ark of the Covenant. 14:59 What was inside that Ark? 15:01 It was the Ten Commandment law, the law of God, 15:06 and so get the picture here. 15:08 The mercy seat which represents God's throne 15:12 or His government is founded upon God's law. 15:17 God's kingdom in heaven rests upon His law. 15:21 That's very important to understand, 15:23 because when we get to this issue of, Lucifer, 15:26 being a covering cherub. 15:28 We begin to see that, that picture of the, 15:31 you see a picture of two angels. 15:33 Facing each other, on either side of the mercy seat, 15:35 or the throne of God, they're covering 15:39 the mercy seat and the Ark of the Covenant. 15:42 That were covered, it actually means 15:45 to defend or protect. 15:49 Now get this, Lucifer, was one of the angels that stood 15:52 in the very presence of God. 15:56 His job in heaven was to protect 15:59 or defend the law of God 16:03 which is the foundation of His throne. 16:06 As long as all heaven was subjected to that law 16:10 and that law we might sum it up in one word, 16:13 the law of self-sacrificing love. 16:18 As long as heaven was subjected to that law, 16:20 all heaven was at rest, all heaven was in peace. 16:25 Heaven was God's Sabbatismos. 16:28 But you remember that in the Book of Ezekiel, 16:31 we read that, Lucifer, was found, was created perfect 16:35 until something was found in him. 16:38 What was found in him? 16:39 Until sin was found in him, that's right, 16:42 the Bible says iniquity was found in him. 16:44 So what we want to discover now is 16:46 what in the world is iniquity or sin. 16:49 What is the biblical definition of sin? 16:53 First John, Chapter 3, verse 4, the Bible says, 16:57 "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law, 17:03 for sin is the transgression of the law." 17:08 And this is the law that was in the Ark of the Covenant, 17:11 and this is what, Lucifer, was supposed to be guarding. 17:14 Protecting and guarding. 17:16 In other words, Lucifer, turned 17:19 against the very law that was, 17:22 that he was commissioned to protect, to defend, 17:26 to stand in defense of. 17:28 And not in defense of as though there were people, 17:30 you know, angels attacking this law, 17:32 but simply to show the reverence of that law. 17:34 Right, Lucifer turned against that law. 17:36 The Bible says, iniquity was found in him. 17:39 And this is what broke the rest of heaven. 17:44 This is what broke the peace of heaven. 17:46 So sum this all up, the very first conflict 17:52 to take place, took place in heaven 17:55 and it took place over the law of God. 17:59 Lucifer rebelled against God's law, 18:03 which is the foundation of his throne. 18:06 Thus the Bible says, there was war in heaven. 18:10 Michael and his angels fought the dragon 18:13 and his angels fought. 18:14 So now we come to the question, but wait a minute. 18:18 How did, Lucifer, convinced other angels 18:22 to go along with this rebellion? 18:25 Because it was such a foreign thing, 18:27 I mean they had just known this holy perfect loving God, 18:33 and how can someone convince 18:36 these angels that have lived with God, thats right. 18:39 From the, you know from their creation 18:41 and to see His loving character, 18:43 how could he convince them. 18:44 That's right, you know, I often asked 18:48 people the question, do you think, Lucifer, 18:50 said to the angels, hey, angels I think 18:52 I want to stage a rebellion, I like to be evil. 18:55 Who wants to come with me? 18:56 They wouldn't fall for that. 18:58 I don't think the angels would have fallen for that. 18:59 Lucifer, had to have promoted a lie so deceptive 19:06 that it deceived even intelligent holy angels 19:12 and that's what happened, angels that were once 19:15 subject to God, now turn to follow Lucifer. 19:17 So let's see how did this happen? 19:19 I want to go over to the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 14. 19:23 Isaiah, Chapter 14, and let's take a look 19:27 at verses 12 to 14 and I'll read that. 19:30 And we invite you to get your Bible out 19:33 and turn with us because -- amen. 19:35 I mean it's so good to see 19:37 the word of God for ourselves, amen. 19:39 Bible says in verse 12, "How art thou fallen from heaven, 19:41 O Lucifer, son of the morning! 19:44 How art thou cut down to the ground, 19:46 which didst weaken the nations! 19:48 For thou hast said in thine heart, 19:49 I will ascend into heaven I will exalt my throne above 19:52 the stars of God I will sit also upon the mount 19:56 of the congregation, in the sides of the north. 19:59 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, 20:02 I will be like the most High." 20:05 That's the key phrase I want to focus it on. 20:07 I'll be like the Most High. 20:11 What is the Most High like, Atonte? 20:12 He is loving, He is kind, He is long suffering. 20:19 He is patient, He is patient, He is righteous. 20:21 Yes, Lucifer, what he told the angels what he tried 20:27 to convince the angels was, is profound. 20:31 Lucifer was saying, I can be like, God, that is loving, 20:35 kind, righteous, holy like God, without, God, 20:43 giving us instruction on how to do it. 20:47 In other words, I don't need a law telling me 20:50 how to be holy and righteous. 20:52 I can be like, God, without God's instruction. 20:57 I can be righteous without, God, telling me what to do. 21:01 We hear talk like that even today. 21:04 Thats right, I can be a good person, 21:06 I don't have to go to church, or study the Bible, 21:10 or pray to God to be a good person. 21:12 I can just be a good person. 21:13 Right, it's we'd call it the argument 21:16 of self-sanctification or self-righteousness. 21:22 Lucifer, convinced the angels by simply saying look, 21:25 God, doesn't have a market on righteousness. 21:27 We're already holy, we're already good. 21:31 We don't need a law telling us how to be righteous 21:34 and if we're truly free, why we need a law. 21:38 And, Atonte, I just find it absolutely amazing that 21:41 these are the very same arguments 21:44 we hear today on this earth. 21:46 We don't need, God, in order to be good. 21:48 I pay my taxes, I take care of my children, 21:51 I am a good person. 21:52 I don't need God and I don't need, God, giving me a law 21:55 to tell me how to be righteous, 21:57 its self-righteousness. 21:59 And this is the argument that deceived one-third of angels. 22:04 It was the concept that, that they could be righteous 22:08 without, God, and without His law 22:11 as a guideline to righteousness. 22:15 The way I look at it, Atonte, is a kind of like 22:19 Democrats and Republicans. 22:21 You know Democrats and Republicans, 22:22 they love to demonize each other. 22:24 The Democrats, they are the ones 22:26 that are destroying the nation. 22:27 Right, no, the Republicans, they are ones 22:28 that are destroying the nations, right. 22:30 The nation and each side 22:31 thinks that they're doing what's right. 22:33 The best thing for the country, 22:35 Lucifer, was the master politician 22:38 and basically he argued, 22:39 look God's government needs reform. 22:43 We're not truly free under His government. 22:45 In fact his argument was, 22:48 we've too much big government. 22:50 We don't need government telling us 22:51 what to do and how to do it. 22:54 We need government out of our lives 22:56 and they were angels that actually fell 22:59 for this argument and said yeah, we can be righteous 23:01 and we should be able to rule ourselves and this is how 23:07 the rebellion began in heaven. 23:09 And it is crucial for us to understand that, 23:11 because we see the very same things going on earth today. 23:15 Men saying, I don't need a law 23:17 to tell me how to be good. 23:18 I don't need, God, to tell me how to be righteous. 23:20 I don't need, God, dictating every area of my life. 23:25 But that's just contrary to God's perfect plan. 23:30 And may be because of sin and because we have fallen short. 23:34 We do need Him to come in 23:36 and shine light in every area of our life if you will, 23:41 because you know, our hearts are deceitfully wicked 23:44 and we can think of something is good, 23:46 but without the Holy Spirit, without God's direction, 23:49 we don't really know good from evil. 23:52 From evil, that right, so we need Him. 23:53 We need to depend on Him. We need to depend on Him. 23:55 It's interesting, Atonte, that when, 23:57 when God creates planet earth 23:59 and this is after this whole rebellion. 24:01 We'll get into more of this in our next study, 24:06 Our next program. Program, that's right. 24:07 But when, God, creates earth, the Bible says 24:11 at the end of every day, He saw that it was good. 24:15 Good, there was no rebellion on earth. 24:17 There was, Adam and Eve, 24:20 after He created them were in perfect 24:21 submission to His will. 24:23 And its interesting that after, God, 24:25 created all of earth and the, Garden of Eden, 24:27 and, Adam and Eve, 24:28 and finished that work of creation, 24:32 the Bible says that, God, rested or Sabbath which, 24:37 which is I find very significant. 24:39 It's almost as though in-resting on earth, 24:42 He was saying, listen this earth has become 24:45 somewhat like heaven. 24:49 Very much like heaven except the location. 24:51 This earth has been sanctified, it is My rest. 24:58 All earth is in harmony to Me, it is with Me, 25:01 it is subjected to My laws. 25:03 It is, there is no war going on. 25:06 That Sabbath rest I think was very significant, 25:09 because, God, was taking almost as it were 25:13 the entire principle of heaven which is rest in, God, 25:18 trust Him, submit yourself to Him 25:21 and in resting on that seventh-day, 25:23 He was saying to earth listen as long as 25:26 you submit yourself to Me, you will be at rest, 25:29 you'll have peace. 25:31 It's interesting the Book Ezekiel 25:32 Chapter 20, verse 12. 25:35 We're told that one of the reasons 25:37 that mankind was given the Sabbath and to-- 25:41 and was instructed to keep it was to keep them 25:43 from that very deception that, Lucifer, 25:46 pulled off in heaven. 25:48 Ezekiel 20, verse 12 says this, it says 25:53 "Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, 25:55 to be a sign between me and them, 25:57 that they might know that I am the Lord 26:01 that sanctify them." 26:02 You can't sanctify yourself, 26:04 I'm the one that sanctifies you. 26:07 You can't work your way to heaven, 26:09 you've to rest your way to heaven. 26:12 And I find it interesting, Atonte, even if you look 26:14 at the Ten Commandments. 26:16 Those commandments all begin with thou shall not. 26:19 Like God is saying rest or cease from lying, 26:23 cease from killing, cease from committing adulteries, 26:27 cease from coveting. 26:30 It's like all the commandments deal with rest. 26:32 Right, even the commandment dealing with 26:34 honor your mother and father, it's saying rest in 26:37 what your parents say, don't resist them, rest, amen. 26:40 And then the fourth commandment begins with what. 26:42 Remember the Sabbath day, rest. 26:44 The commandments are all about 26:46 resting not what, working. 26:49 So God says, we rest our way to heaven, 26:51 not work our way. 26:52 We can't sanctify ourselves by doing our own thing. 26:55 We've got to be submitted to the, will of God, 26:58 and to the, law of God. 27:00 This is what caused angels in heaven to fall 27:03 and now that we understand oh the war on earth is that, 27:07 Lucifer, is trying to convince mankind 27:10 of the very same thing. 27:11 We don't need to keep God's commandments 27:13 in order find the rest. 27:15 Jesus says, come on to me, and I will what? 27:18 Give you rest, I'll give you rest from your lying ways, 27:21 rest from your, you know thieveries, 27:23 rest from your covetousness. 27:25 He wants to give us that rest 27:27 that ushers in the Sabbatismos. 27:30 And will ultimately usher us in to God's place of rest. 27:34 By the way if we're unwilling to rest here, 27:38 we'll not rest there. 27:41 God cannot allow us into that kingdom, 27:43 because we'll refuse to rest there. 27:45 Because the angels had lived 27:48 their entire life if you will, resting. 27:51 And as soon as they started working 27:54 thinking they could do it on there own. 27:55 That's when all havoc break out. 27:58 That's right Wow! 27:59 Well, I'm excited just for our future 28:03 studies and programs. 28:04 You don't want to miss the rest of God's GPS, 28:08 God's Plan of Salvation. 28:09 Until next time God bless. |
