When I left off last time, I had stated that God and His angels lived in the spirit realm, along with the devil and his demons (fallen angels). I use the number one best seller of all time for my reasonings: the Bible. The Bible tells us that God existed “in the beginning”. Some folks don’t believe in God. That’s OK. Let’s just take a ‘wait and see’ approach. The Bible also tells us that God created ALL things, and I have to believe that includes the devil, too. You see, I believe ( everyone say – this is what he believes ) that the devil was an angel, created by God. This angel was named Lucifer, and in his original state, he actually led worship to God. Then, he looked in a mirror one day, saw how beautiful he was, and decided he wanted to be, not just LIKE God, but to BE god, the object of worship rather than the leader of worship. God said, “NO!”, and cast Lucifer forever from the dwelling place of God. Lucifer convinced a third of the angelic host to follow him, as he was descending from God’s presence; and the ‘war’ was on: satan (the devil or Lucifer) versus God. When satan got to earth, he caused so much devastation, that we’re told, ” .. the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep.” – the Book of Genesis, chapter 1, verse 2.
Sometme thereafter, God spoke, His Spirit responded, and creation ‘happened’! Again, to re-emphasize, this is what I believe. You are free to exercise your right to disagree. I will continue this explanation in yet another article. This could become ‘days of our lives’ ‘as the world turns’ for ‘all my children’ … a never-ending saga of hope for the hopeless. Come on back for more. Thank you.
