The Lord God is wonderful and awesome. He is holy and righteous. He is the Just one, the Truth! He ALONE deserves all glory and honor and praise. FOREVER!! AMEN!!

I began in the garden of Eden. And I went on a journey. I saw the first sin, I saw the first murder. I saw the world destroyed with a flood. I saw 8 souls saved. I saw the birth of a new people. I saw Abraham, Isaac, Jacob. I went with Israel into Egypt. I felt their affliction. I saw them delivered from Egypt by a MIGHTY hand. I saw them in the wilderness. I saw the law given to them. I saw them raise up idols. I saw them destroyed in a generation in the wilderness. I saw Joshua lead them into the promised land. I saw them dwell in peace. I saw them forsake the Lord again, I saw them desire kings instead of God. I saw their idolatry again. I saw their destruction again. Yet, again, I saw their restoration again.

Time and time again Israel fell away and was restored, after repentance when the Lord finally would lift the burdens of their own sins from off them. They pollute themselves with idols and call out to God when they are deep in it. God has destroyed them and restored them and destroyed and restored. Was it a never ending cycle?

I saw the kingdom go and the kingdom come again. I saw the TRUTH!! I SAW THE KING OF ISRAEL! I saw him ride into Jerusalem on a donkey. I saw Israel mock him. I saw Israel scourge him. I saw him heal the blind and the sick. I saw him feed the multitudes. I saw him hung on a cross. IS SAW HIM RISE AGAIN!! I saw him ascend into heaven. I saw him next to the Father. And I saw him descend in like manner. I saw him coming as a lion fierce in judgement. I saw him as a consuming fire. I saw it all. But I did not see his righteousness.

But then he showed me his righteousness.

(I will continue it in a second post.)

So, one day I was asked to give a bible lesson. And at the time, I was learning about righteousness. And so, I just wanted to share what the Lord was teaching me, that is all. The name of my message was ''Righteousness.'' I know the spirits jerked.

The message was not of force, nor of reprimand. It was as the Lord spoke it. And then I received the most terrifying hostility I could ever know. The words, ''WE ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW.''

And I said, ''I am not talking about the law, I am talking about righteousness.''

Hostility! Was this a test? But my soul was depressed. What is it about righteousness that causes such a fear in people? What is it that causes this violence? And then I was given the revelation of the garden of Eden again.

WOW!! HALLELUJAH!! AMEN!!!

YES!!! Now, we are back in the Garden of Eden again!! I saw again that serpent and his ugly head. I saw him entice the woman. And I saw the beginning of the enmity. And soon in Christ I would see the Peace of God. But this peace of God is not peace for the world. In the world it is a sword, but for us it is eternal life.

It was called the chastisement of our peace. Only Jesus could be bring that peace. But now the world seeks another peace.

Satan is hostile and contrary to righteousness, because God is righteous, and he is unrighteous. Satan despises Jesus even more, because Jesus defeated death and hell, and SIN!! Jesus defeats sin in us again, but Satan says that we cannot be sinless. It is a lie. Anyone who believes is is deceived. Jesus Christ works righteousness in us until we come into his image. And Satan is against that image. He has always been after it since he rebelled. That is why he was after the man, as he was made in the image of God.

Jesus was killed because he was righteous, and because the world was full of sin. And as we also ourselves have had our part in it, in our own hostility, we killed him also. Now then, should we continue to kill him by our sin? No murder will enter his kingdom. And Jesus said, anyone who has hatred and anger in his own heart is the same as a murderer.

How long will we not cease to crucify him again and again?
