Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female ; He created them (Genesis 1:26)
We are here to walk with and co-labour with God to create heaven on Earth.
But because of the fall since The Garden of Eden Satan has been ruining it for us since he deceived Eve in giving her power away – she listened to him working through a serpent, rather than to God and so sin entered into her, then into Adam.
To stop it spreading into the garden, God had to separate them from it temporarily until He devised a plan to rescue them by covering them first with skins of animals and life giving blood
Sin= death
Blood = life
Hence the biblical blood sacrifices that were performed but which now since His death on the cross it is only the blood of Jesus that can give us life.
Sin is death and it kills and destroys things – that is why God hates it because it stole us from Him. Nothing on Earth was or is, meant to die. So when sin entered in through Adam and Eve the death process started and we think it is natural – it’s not.
Satan stole our inheritance and our walk with God so we are ignorant of our birthright, relationship, power and authority that God gave us right in the beginning.
But because of Jesus and his miraculous physical resurrection after his death on the cross, we can now begin to reclaim it all back.
Since the work done on the Cross where Jesus defeated death and the devil, we can begin to be restored. Jesus came to take back our power off Satan who has been ruling over the earth since the Garden, since he tricked Eve, and still is, hence all the problems, death, drugs, abortions, etc.
Many people do not believe in Satan because he masquerades as an angel of light and deceives many to this day.
Jesus is the only one who has power over Satan-the devil flees at His name!
So when we ask Jesus to come into our life, He transforms and reconciles us back to God and indeed does rescue us from the wiles of the devil (which means adversary).
Believe on his death on the cross, that Jesus did became a living sacrifice to buy us back from Satan who currently ‘owns’ people who reject or do not know about Christ. Unless we are ‘born in God’s spirit’ our DNA is still tainted by the original sin when we fell and because of this we just cannot enter heaven because sin is in our very nature, which Jesus came to rectify.
Sin=death
Death is not permitted to come into heaven, sin sits in our souls even after death so we are not capable of ever being clean enough, ever, to get back. That is why God’s plan to have us spiritually washed with the blood of Jesus which spiritually washes us and cleanses us clean.
Jesus swapped his purity (righteousness) for our sin.
He became ‘sin’ for us, taking your sin, my sin and dying in our place He gave us the gift of His goodness and life in exchange. When we accept Jesus this exchange is what is felt when we ask him to come into our heart – you just feel at peace.
No amount of higher vibrations can fix it, no good works can fix it, no religion can fix it – only the sacrifice and the blood of Jesus can.
When we confess our sin and repent from our ungodly ways, which means to turn away from sin, and turn back to God by choosing a better path we loose sin out of our lives as we go and we begin to feel better.
God’s Holy Spirit helps us, he is our comforter, teacher and guide. We get the Holy Spirit when we say yes to Jesus and ask Him to fill us with His Holy Spirit.
If there was ANY other way for us to get back into heaven there would be NO need for God to have had Jesus, His dear Son who He loves so much to have been sacrificed on the cross
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John3:16)
If we believe it in our heart and speak it with our mouth and call upon the Lord to step into our heart/life we can be ‘saved’ by God’s grace because of the sacrifice of His Son for all our wrong doings.
God judges sin – because it’s against His law and the sentence is death- He said that in the beginning of creation, so Jesus died on the cross in our place. So we could walk free. He paid the price.
Hence He is known as The Saviour
Once we accept Christ we can take authority and dominion over the Earth once again once we have Jesus and His Holy Spirit residing within us.
It’s the Good News!
We can all go to heaven once we know this and ask Jesus into our lives because once He is inside of us, our DNA is changed back to the original state and we become a ‘new creature’ in Christ to that of the rest of the world. We are ‘born of the spirit of God’ and it is ONLY this that works, as it was God’s plan to get us back – not religions’ plans but GOD’S PLAN!
You will not find God in religion but you will find him in LOVE and in Christ Jesus who so loved the world he died on the cross to get us back from Satan and eternal ‘death’, no matter how ‘bad’ we have been.
All we need to do is to say to Jesus to come into our life, knowing you cannot do it without Him, that you have sinned and need Him you will then begin to see how He comes in and does a new thing in your life. Only He and His Holy Spirit can transform us back into God’ original plan
Only by asking Jesus to come into our heart can we can take our lost power back off Satan and his demons who are running our lives on the earth. With God in our heart we can do mighty things. It’s one of God’s promises
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13)
….in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:31-39) NIV
