NOT ALL MEN ARE PREDESTINED TO LIVE UNDER For disobeying Jehovah God, and listening instead to his wife's voice, the first man Adam lost the opportunity of gaining everlasting life. (Gen 3:17). But those that have listened to God through His Christ Jesus, will have opportunity to "sit, each one under his vine" and be "free of disturbance", even to inherit everlasting spirit life. (Micah 4:4) (Isaiah 14:7). As for their enemies, those with satanic worldly authority who did "drive [others] to work", they will come to a stop, as the prophecy states. (Isaiah 14:3,4. 65:22-24). It would not be in accordance with the Spirit of God's justice for men whom He has declared righteous to still be under the original curse of Adam. (Rom 8:33). Indeed if they were, it would have made The Christ's ransom sacrifice on their behalf redundant.
PREPARED ONES "BEFOREHAND" Interesting to note is that His mercy does not extend to obstinate ones. (9:18). The administration of His mercy is so that His Name is declared in all the earth (9:17), and in the places where it was said to His beloved people: "'You are not My people,' (where once they were rejected and ostracised) there they will be called 'sons of the Living God.'" (9:25,26). 30/7/86. |
