The THREE scientists: the fallen ones

Look to our genes, the seeds we plant, the food we eat, the production processes, the industries created from each other, the economic standards of life, work, and survival, anything we ingest, in heart, mind, body, and spirit.

How far we have deviated from what GOD intended us to be, to do, and to have.

How hard the enemy worked, to corrupt GOD's creation, through us, and in us.

Since the fall from grace, we've all had it harder on earth.

The curse was upon us:

Genesis 3:16-19

King James Version

16 Unto the woman he said,

I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception;

in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children;

and thy desire shall be to thy husband,

and he shall rule over thee.

17 And unto Adam he said,

Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife,

and hast eaten of the tree,

of which I commanded thee, saying,

Thou shalt not eat of it:

cursed is the ground for thy sake;

in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee;

and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;

19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,

till thou return unto the ground;

for out of it wast thou taken:

for dust thou art,

and unto dust shalt thou return.

But all is not lost.

GOD gave us JESUS.

In JESUS is our hope.

If we but believe in these:

Deuteronomy 8:3

King James Version

3 And he humbled thee,

and suffered thee to hunger,

and fed thee with manna,

which thou knewest not,

neither did thy fathers know;

that he might make thee know

that man doth not live by bread only,

but by every word that proceedeth

out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.

Matthew 4:4

King James Version

4 But he answered and said,

It is written,

Man shall not live by bread alone,

but by every word that proceedeth

out of the mouth of God.

John 6:48-51

King James Version

48 I am that bread of life.

49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness,

and are dead.

50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven,

that a man may eat thereof,

and not die.

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven:

if any man eat of this bread,

he shall live for ever:

and the bread that I will give is my flesh,

which I will give for the life of the world.

Mark 1:15

King James Version

15 And saying,

The time is fulfilled,

and the kingdom of God is at hand:

repent ye,

and believe the gospel.

John 3:5-7

King James Version

5 Jesus answered,

Verily, verily, I say unto thee,

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit,

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh;

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.

John 3:16

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world,

that he gave his only begotten Son,

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,

but have everlasting life.

John 11:25

King James Version

25 Jesus said unto her,

I am the resurrection,

and the life:

he that believeth in me,

though he were dead,

yet shall he live:

Acts 4:12

King James Version

12 Neither is there salvation in any other:

for there is none other name under heaven

given among men,

whereby we must be saved.

Acts 16:31

King James Version

31 And they said,

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,

and thou shalt be saved,

and thy house.

Colossians 3:1-4

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ,

seek those things which are above,

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above,

not on things on the earth.

3 For ye are dead,

and your life is hid with Christ in God.

4 When Christ, who is our life,

shall appear, then shall ye also

appear with him in glory.

Take heart.

Have faith in JESUS.

All matter to GOD.

Psalm 118:6

King James Version

6 The Lord is on my side;

I will not fear:

what can man do unto me?

Our times are in GOD's hand alone.

No amount of modification, manipulation, or corruption can destroy man, unless it be GOD's will.

The enemy can keep trying, but we are all subject to GOD's WILL.

TARES among WHEAT

Matthew 13:27

King James Version

27 So the servants of the householder came

and said unto him, Sir,

didst not thou sow good seed in thy field?

from whence then hath it tares?

The world can be likened to wheat, and tares.

There's the good seed, and the bad seed.

The pure, and the contaminated.

Both must exist.

Both are allowed, for GOD's purpose.

In the parable JESUS gave, tares were sown by the enemy:

Matthew 13:24-25

King James Version

24 Another parable

put he forth unto them, saying,

The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man

which sowed good seed in his field:

25 But while men slept, his enemy came

and sowed tares among the wheat,

and went his way.

So, the servants ask:

Matthew 13:27-28

King James Version

27 So the servants of the householder came

and said unto him, Sir,

didst not thou sow good seed in thy field?

from whence then hath it tares?

28 He said unto them,

An enemy hath done this.

The servants said unto him,

Wilt thou then that we go

and gather them up?

And the householder wisely answers:

Matthew 13:29-30

King James Version

29 But he said,

Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares,

ye root up also the wheat with them.

30 Let both grow together until the harvest:

and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers,

Gather ye together first the tares,

and bind them in bundles to burn them:

but gather the wheat into my barn.

Whatever people are doing now, to contaminate pure efforts to help others, will take its own course.

People will have to make a stand:

To serve GOD, or mammon?

To serve JESUS, or ambition?

To serve others, or self?

By the fruits of our labor will our hearts be revealed.

Galatians 6:9-10

King James Version

9 And let us not be weary in well doing:

for in due season we shall reap,

if we faint not.

10 As we have therefore opportunity,

let us do good unto all men,

especially unto them

who are of the household of faith.

Psalm 1

King James Version

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not

in the counsel of the ungodly,

nor standeth in the way of sinners,

nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord;

and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree

planted by the rivers of water,

that bringeth forth his fruit in his season;

his leaf also shall not wither;

and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4 The ungodly are not so:

but are like the chaff

which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly

shall not stand in the judgment,

nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous:

but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Whatever seed we plant -- literally and figuratively -- we're all responsible for it.

JUDGMENT comes, through JESUS.

Revelation 20:12-13

King James Version

12 And I saw the dead,

small and great,

stand before God;

and the books were opened:

and another book was opened,

which is the book of life:

and the dead were judged

out of those things which were written in the books,

according to their works.

13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it;

and death and hell delivered up the dead

which were in them:

and they were judged

every man according to their works.

Man became CONTAMINATED

Genesis 2:15-17

King James Version

15 And the Lord God took the man,

and put him into the garden of Eden

to dress it and to keep it.

16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying,

Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:

17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,

thou shalt not eat of it:

for in the day that thou eatest thereof

thou shalt surely die.

There was a time GOD walked with man.

And man walked with GOD.

Scripture testifies of it.

Genesis 3:8

King James Version

8 And they heard the voice of the Lord God

walking in the garden in the cool of the day:

and Adam and his wife hid themselves

from the presence of the Lord God

amongst the trees of the garden.

But man became corrupted.

And here are TWO instances.

Man's thinking was corrupted.

What is called the "original" sin.

From which all other suffering resulted.

Genesis 3:1-7

King James Version

3 Now the serpent was more subtil

than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made.

And he said unto the woman,

Yea, hath God said,

Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

2 And the woman said unto the serpent,

We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

3 But of the fruit of the tree

which is in the midst of the garden,

God hath said,

Ye shall not eat of it,

neither shall ye touch it,

lest ye die.

4 And the serpent said unto the woman,

Ye shall not surely die:

5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof,

then your eyes shall be opened,

and ye shall be as gods,

knowing good and evil.

6 And when the woman saw

that the tree was good for food,

and that it was pleasant to the eyes,

and a tree to be desired to make one wise,

she took of the fruit thereof,

and did eat,

and gave also unto her husband with her;

and he did eat.

7 And the eyes of them both were opened,

and they knew that they were naked;

and they sewed fig leaves together,

and made themselves aprons.

Man's genes and heart were corrupted by the fallen ones.

Genesis 6:1-7

King James Version

6 And it came to pass,

when men began to multiply on the face of the earth,

and daughters were born unto them,

2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men

that they were fair;

and they took them wives of all which they chose.

3 And the Lord said,

My spirit shall not always strive with man,

for that he also is flesh:

yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

4 There were giants in the earth in those days;

and also after that,

when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men,

and they bare children to them,

the same became mighty men which were of old,

men of renown.

5 And God saw that the wickedness of man

was great in the earth,

and that every imagination

of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

6 And it repented the Lord

that he had made man on the earth,

and it grieved him at his heart.

7 And the Lord said,

I will destroy man whom I have created

from the face of the earth;

both man, and beast,

and the creeping thing,

and the fowls of the air;

for it repenteth me that I have made them.

Jude 6

King James Version

6 And the angels which kept not their first estate,

but left their own habitation,

he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness

unto the judgment of the great day.

And you know the story.

GOD instructed Noah to build an ark.

The flood came.

All but Noah and his family (all eight of them) remained.

Including the pair of animals GOD instructed He bring along.

What now?

Have we got a chance to redeem ourselves?

Only THROUGH JESUS, can we be saved.

Acts 4:12

King James Version

12 Neither is there salvation in any other:

for there is none other name

under heaven given among men,

whereby we must be saved.

We may have sinned.

We may have been corrupted.

But GOD is merciful.

He allows all -- both good and evil -- to exist.

For there will be a "harvesting" in the end.

Matthew 13:30

King James Version

30 Let both grow together until the harvest:

and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers,

Gather ye together first the tares,

and bind them in bundles to burn them:

but gather the wheat into my barn.

More on the "contamination" in the next post.
