God's Blueprint for Humanity Illustrated

God's blueprint

As you see from what we illustrate above, whether as individuals or as humanity in the whole, we will go through five stages as we live on this earth.

Although when we were born we appeared to be innocent, we carry the seed and impact of Adam and Eve's fall from their sinless state. Even if Satan's temptation and our first parents' consequent fall are too remote for us to grasp, we face the devil's temptations on a daily basis and are tossed about between standing or succumbing to his ploys.

Though we do not want to face our own destined end, but in another way we experience death everyday, our separation from the heavenly Father. For that reason, we can hardly accept the Bible's teaching that after death there will be judgment.

Rebirth through our faith in the death of the second Adam is indeed the highlight of our life on earth -- just as exciting as when Israelites miraculously crossed the Red Sea. After this critical moment, the followers of Jesus are challenged by their Master and Lord to carry our own cross daily (Luke 9:23), just as Israelites had to travel two years and go through 42 stations in the Old Testament time.

Next comes the "confusion point" -- can we enter the riches of God in Christ by faith alone? If we have no faith at this point, we will waste a huge amount of time fighting with our own flesh without going anywhere. Israelites failed here and, therefore, 38 more years were to be spent on the desert wandering even though it took only two to get to the edge of Canaan.

Nevertheless, as Israelites' hope was to wait to be ushered into Caanan, the hope of all true Christians is to wait to be raptured up in the air to meet the coming Jesus!

To many, being raptured is perhaps a strange and funny idea. Indeed, it takes a faith like that of the matured Abraham to not laugh at it. This biblical teaching has already been distorted by different kinds of cults who decide that suicide is the way to be taken to "heaven" by extraterrestrial aliens who pass by our planet once in a while. Yes, the devil can imitate Rapture, but he cannot do it right and ever achieve it. Even true believers fear to mention the rapture of the Church and the coming of Jesus in public as many misconnect these events with the annihilation of the earth; they fail to perceive the Bible's teaching that the earth will last at least one thousand years after Jesus' coming.

You may wonder why we say "Repent, for the kingdom of God is leaving" as you read what we show you so far. Shouldn't we say "the kingdom of God is at hand" as Jesus says in Mark 1:15?

You are right in saying so. But according to the Bible, before the second coming of Jesus, the earth will go through a horrible tribulation, unequaled to from the beginning of the world (see Matthew 25:21). When this tribulation (the worse of which will last for three and half years only) happens, many will die without hearing the gospel. And even worse, many will die without knowing their personal Saviour and receiving the Spirit of God as their seal for salvation. Yes, they may go to church and tithe every Sunday, but they only know what is modern Christianity; they do not know Christ! They have simply missed the true mark completely. This is the saddest of all. This is even worse than being unchurched!

Yes, God will draw away His Spirit along with His true children, just as God's glory departed with reluctance the First Temple of Israel and drew with Him the heart of the prophet Ezekiel (chapter 10).

The Spirit of Truth must leave because His children have once again allowed evil spirits and the devil's teaching to have seats in today's churches (Rev. 2:13, 20-23).

God must leave because His children have once again become corrupt on this earth (Exodus 32) and the Spirit will depart so that the Son of God can come to judge the world.

The Counselor must leave because His own shepherds do not seek His counseling; therefore they cannot feed their flocks with truth and life but only with man's knowledge and falsehood (Jeremiah 10:21 23:1-40).

The Holy Spirit must leave because His own people fail to testify about His holiness; they have become lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, brutal, treacherous, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God... (2 Tim. 3:5)

The Lord must leave because this world craves for her own king and has rejected God to be their King. For this rejection God will cast down her king, the prince of the air, on to the earth and give his representative, the last antichrist, the right to rule this earth for a short time before the real king arrives (compare king Saul to David, 1 Samuel 8:4:20).

May the Spirit of God lift you up, not only from the pit of death, but also from the net of confusions. Hold fast to Jesus of Nazareth and His Cross, then the door to peace and joy will open for you, even to your physical eyes :-)

The hope of true believers depends on the fact that the Son of God had gone through all five stages on our behalf, yet He overcame in each every one of them! He was indeed the second Adam who never failed! He was (and still is) the true and absolute overcomer. We cannot overcome but through Him and Him alone!
