God's purpose for EVIL
the serpent is a rod of discipline in the Lords hands
when the children take the hand of the serpent through
disobediance and accepts the spirit of rebellion..the
consequences of evil and all the suffering of it..
can make the child repent and return unto the Father.
All mankind down here on earth are children..and the heart
of a child is full of folly. Do not forsake the rod of discipline.
The law of sowing and reaping applies as long as we remain in
the flesh on this earth. And when we do repent from sin..and
suffer evilfor doing good ...the rod tests us..For he who has
suffered[for doing right] has desisted from sin.
Obediance is perfected through suffering.
good and evil will be sown as long as the earth exists...
and harvest time will also continue as long as the earth exists
He that loves His child does look for him with discipline
The adversary is needed until the children mature and learn
obediance.Repent,turn to doing right then suffer for doing right
Now our big brothers and sister's in heaven...holy angels
have already been perfected and cast satan out of the heavens
They suffered evil while obeying God [ex; Michael not daring to
rebuke satan in the dispute over Moses body]
During that spiritual warfare in heaven satan and his
messengers were not strong enough to overcome God's
obediant angels..they suffered satan in heaven.
Now satan is confined to the earth, and the angels of heaven
are in union with their little brothers down here still dwelling on
the earth. Now we are at a disadvantage due to the weakness
of our flesh and our power is small..but they are powerful and
will come with Jesus to help us win the spiritual war.They are
the true saviours of Mt Zion. Michael will stand up refers to this
very thing.
They will ride the more mature children down here as horses in
the spiritual battle.. And as they are united with us in heart
as the weaker vessel..so too, we are united in heart with those
here on earth that are weaker vessels, and serve as saviours
on Mt Zion to them.
It is all spiritual warfare and conducted righteously and not
against flesh a nd blood..because flesh and blood is not the
enemy but the enemy is spiritual.
God Himself finishes our training..and those that are glorified
in heaven[angelic brothers and sisters]suffer for doing God's will
in this way.Putting up in love with the evil that is present in
our flesh, loving us and ministering to us. you all know that
the Holy spirit[and all holy spiritual children] are distressed
with evil and malice and it greives them. Just as we with
token are greived in the presence of evil in ourselves and
others. So, you can see why enduring evil and suffering
for doing righteousness does lead to perfection in the spirits of
mankind.
This serving of one another will even apply to the animal
Kingdom. As angelic sons of God have battled for and with us
in our interest when we were as beasts..so too, the taming of
wild animals and the learning of dwelling togather in unity will
occur. This is part of the dominion of the Kingdom also.
Adam was given dominion over the earth..and the subjecting
of the animal kingdom is referred to in several places in the
scriptures. The lion will lie down with the Lamb,kid and leopard
etc, child and the poisoned asp etc on His Holy Mountain.
Yes even the animals will have the spirit of love for one
another and quit devouring one another.
All things must be subjected..
Older brothers and sisters assist with younger etc...
a little child will be the leader of them all speaks of the
youngest in our heavenly numbers assisting in taming the
the animals.
The Kingdom of Heaven is as when a woman hid leaven in a
jar and then all the flour was leaven..this is what that is
speaking of.
All of this sowing and reaping is transpiring now
simultaneously. Litle children are making freinds of their pets
cats and dogs,birds and cats..we have all seen these things in
the news. This goes all the way up to the top of heaven. The
more mature serve the less advanced.
By the same token the kingdom of darkness continues in it's
sowing and reaping and will continue as long as the earth
exists. And we,too, see the evidence of this in the news and
in our daily lives.
As long as the earth exists refers to as long as we dwell in
the earth,or as long as the earth literally exists.
When someone dies and is resurrected in heaven,He is taught
how and in what way He will serve the Father, He has been
delivered from the sin in his flesh,but must suffer the sin in
other's flesh that he serves on earth. Therefore he is perfected
by suffering evil in obediance.
Now when everyone is clothed on High..the rod will no longer
be of use/needed and becomes obsolete..just like the law is
faded away so too the rod. For the law was written against
the lawless and the rod against the disobediant and for the
testing/perfecting of the obediant through the suffering for
obediance.
All the children will be placed in the BODY/FAMILY where
Father places them,and they will find contentment and
fulfillment where they are placed by Him..for He forms us for
this very purpose.
There is a real difference between a free gift and a talent.
The free gift requires no effort on our part..but a talent
requires our effort for it's increase. We want to increase our
Father interests/business. If Father has 'sanctified' us for His
use on earth now..our talents will require some effort on our part
But,He does not sanctify all of mankind for His use on earth at
present..that does not mean the free gift will not be given them
for they will bear fruit in heaven after they die,just as we
bear fruit now,to the extent we put to death the wicked works
of disobediance in our life to the benefit of our Father's interest.
Does everyone get a 'talent' in this life ? Everyone gets at
least one , but if he be overtaken by the wicked spirit
completely he will not have increase. That human will receive
the free gift through no effort of his own, but that rebellious
spirit will be cast out.For every knee will bow and every tongue
will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.

not increase
