IN THE BEGINNING |
| In heaven God is surrounded by heavenly bodies (angels) ** Those bodies have different duties ** But what they all have in common |
| They all offer worship unto God ** Lucifer was the leader of the heavenly worship unto God |
| The bible says he was the most beautiful & most perfect (Ezekiel 28) ** Satan became full of himself and said he will take the place of God (Isaiah 14) |
| The Devil wanted to be worshiped ** he tempted/convinced other angels to help him take the thrown of God |
| A war took place in heaven ** Satan Loss ** He and all of the angels that helped him were cast out of heaven |
| An angel said woe unto the inhabitants of the earth for Satan comes full of wrath & vengeance |
| The Bible says The Devil comes to Kill, Still, and Destroy ** he is described as the father of lies |
| On earth Adam was dwelling and communing with God ** The angels new that God had placed man at a position of high esteem (Hebrew 2) |
| No longer able to influence the heavenly bodies the Devil turns his wrath on the next best thing - man |
| Lucifer can not make us do things, he tempts us through our senses, by what we hear, smell, taste, feel, see, but mainly through thoughts |
| Satan puts thoughts in our mind and we feed & develop those thoughts into actions ** So Satan tempted Eve |
| Resulting in Adam and Eve getting cast out of the garden of Eden ** Adam & Eve's decedents populated the earth |
| Satan tempted the population to be so evil that GOD destroyed them all, save Noah and his family ** Noah had three sons Shem, Ham, & Japheth |
| Ham begot Cush, Cush begot Nimrod ** the bible says Nimrod was a mighty hunter before the Lord (Genesis 10) {HUNTER of WHAT? HUNTER of SOULS} |
| The beginning of Nimrod's kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh in the land of SHINAR (Babylon) |
| As a servant of the Enemy/Satan Nimrod developed a religion that was not of the 1 and only God, but mimicked it |
| Nimrod's religion had a trinity, himself - his wife - his son. Like father - son - and holy spirit |
| Nimrod required the people to worship him as a god on earth |
| The religion established in the land of SHINAR would grow and evolve as the people migrated and populated the land |
| The religion became the foundation or genesis for many future religions in particularly the Egyptian Empire & Babylonian Empire |
| As these Empires where concurred, the concurring Empires would assimilate some of the aspects or characteristics of the Nimrodic religion into their own society |
| This ensured that the most powerful country (having the most influence over the greater amount of people) would spread the religion either overtly or hidden or ignorantly |
| Persians concurred Babylon * Greeks concurred Persians * Romans concurred the Greeks * Romans established and influenced much of Europe |
| Over the ensuing millenniums European Kingdoms would spread their influence across the globe |
