The Beginning and End of Time (Eternity Begins!)

By Henry Dia

The book showcases God's plan and purpose for human existence. It gives details of the plan of God for you as an individual and decodes the mystery and obscurity that existed between God and man. It equally unraveled the cosmic confusion and the universe paradox. The book discusses the beginning (Genesis) and the end of time (Revelation). Inside the book are powerful spiritual nuggets that will change your life forever.

•The mystery of the blood: Life is in the blood or the blood is life; you cannot equate the life (blood) of animal (goat and sheep) to that of man.
•Man sinned and animal died in his stead; man sinned, man must die – Satan’s demand.
•God made coat of animal skin to cover the nakedness of Adam and Eve: The animal skin covered their bodies (physical) while the blood covered their sin (spiritual).
•Abel offering a better sacrifice of animal got the revelation of what God Himself initiated-no blood, no forgiveness.
•The wages of sin is death: we pay money for goods and services; spiritually it is blood for blood or life for life.
•The blood or life of Jesus has compensated or paid (atoned) for our sins: without the shedding of blood there is no remission (forgiveness) of sin.
•One man (Adam) sinned and everybody became sinners by inheritance. One man (Jesus) died for sin and everybody is justified by faith in Christ.
•Holiness or righteousness cannot be achieved by man, and any attempt to do so amounts to self-righteousness. We inherit holiness or righteousness from the death of the Lord Jesus (the only man that is holy).
•The child of the woman has bruised Satan’s head: Sin came through the woman; salvation or the savior came through the woman also.
•Satan bruised man’s heel – minor injury
•Jesus bruised Satan’s head – major injury
•Who is fooling who? Satan put on animal flesh (serpent) to deceive man; God put on human flesh (Jesus) to deceive Satan. The deceiver is deceived.
•God became man (Jesus) so that man could be like God or be a god.
•The Church is the bride of Christ – Marriage and honey moon to take place in heaven.
•Israel is the wife of God but had played the harlot – must pass through Great tribulation for cleansing.
•God is eternal: His love is eternal; His punishment is eternal – lake of fire forever.
•God has different methods of deliverance: He raptures the Church at the mid-point of the Great tribulation to avoid the wrath of God but protects the Israelites inside the wrath.
•He can prevent you from entering the fire so that you will not burn or protects you inside the fire so that you will not burn.
•Osama destroyed the Trade Centre to become great.
•Obama destroyed Osama to become greater.
•Therefore, Obama and not Osama is the Al- Mahdi (Muslim’s Messiah).

Acknowledgments

I gave my life to the Lord Jesus in 1980. Due to my Christian zeal I had a visionary experience of heaven where I saw the Lord Jesus on His throne. This gave me the impetus to search the scriptures intently, and then gained more insight, illumination, and revelations into the word of God.

Other book apart from the Bible that I consulted during the writing of this book is Microsoft Encarta. It was an invaluable source of historical information relating to the Bible and the Church. I acknowledge its great resourcefulness.

Foreword

Many people live in the world without purpose. Many others are confused as to the purpose of their existence. Others are faced with the great question; ‘what is the purpose of man on earth? Does God exist? Why the pain, suffering, and injustice all over the world?

Man was made to be like God. I know many people would ask, ‘are we really like God? Considering the pain, suffering, disasters and other adverse elements around us it would be difficult for many to believe that we are made to be like God. The Bible said that God made us in His image and likeness. This does not only refer to His attributes (love, holiness, power etc.) but also His supernatural existence. The devil actually used this point to deceive Eve. He told her that she would be like God when she eats the forbidden fruit. The forbidden fruit did not make man to be like God rather it made man to be like animal (Serpent or Devil). The issue is prolonged. Here we are: degraded beings. But who do we blame? Is it God, Serpent (Satan) or man? Man is a free moral agent. He has the freedom of choice. Our life on earth is a process or gestation period to Godhood. The Bible said that when Jesus comes we will be like Him. Is it all of us? No. The gestation will give birth to two groups- God-like and Satan-like. This of course is according to choice. Now is the time for you to make a wise choice.

God is eternal – lives forever. His love is eternal – forever. His judgment is eternal. Everything about God is eternal – everlasting. That is why His judgment of Hell or lake of fire is forever and ever. There is also a part of man that does not die physically. The breath of God in man that made him a living soul lives forever. When the body (material) of a man dies the soul that have been activated by the breath of God lives on in Heaven or Hell accordingly.

Introduction

God is the Master planner. He made the whole world. He spelt out the purpose for human existence in the Bible. Man’s high prospect, dignity as predestined by God in His word astonished David in his meditation upon it and said,

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet-Psalms8:4-6; Hebrews2:6-7

The book of Jeremiah Chapter 29 verse11 has a lot to tell about the plan of God for us. This plan was foreknown and predestined by God. God is far from having a bad plan for you. He said in a certain place in the Bible,

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end – Jer 29:11

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Matthew7:11

This plan in its nature is devoid of hatred and full of Love – ‘a plan of good and not of evil. It is not stagnant but progressive and futuristic; it flows with you as you move from one life situation to another –‘that you may have an expected end. It is characterized by love, patience and hope. You surely will not have a better plan than His plan for you. We need discover His plan for us and more so we need to follow it. Israel wavered from the plan of God and made the journey to the promise land forty years instead of forty days. May He give us His grace to follow in Jesus Name!

As you probe into this book, you will discover the plan of God for you as an individual, the plan for the nation of Israel, the plan for the whole world and of course His heavenly plan. - Henry Dia.

The Individual Plan

God has plan for each and every one of us. He wants you to be saved and enjoy your Heavenly home which He has prepared for you.

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. John14:2

The Earth is the cradle of our existence while heaven is the final destination (the real home). The Earth is like a farm to God: a place to propagate the seed and enrich His barn. The good wheat will be harvested and preserved in the storehouse while the tares and rotten ones will be gathered together and burnt. Can we blame the farmer for burning the rotten things (rubbish)? Many people believe that a loving God cannot confine someone to Hell (everlasting torment). The Bible told us that God is a consuming fire - Hebrews12:29. It is very clear that it is not rubbish that He consumes but human beings that are disobedient to Him. And the process of consumption is eternal (forever) because He is eternal. Mind you the human soul that have been activated by the breath of God never dies just as God or His breath is eternal. Therefore the death of the soul or second death is the suffering or isolation from God in the Lake of fire - Rev20:10-15

The Sin Factor:

Sin is the one and only thing that can put in obscure the plan of God from you. It can also distract you from the plan or make the fulfillment of it seemingly prolonged. Man can take himself out of the plan of God but man cannot change the plan of God. The Garden of Eden was in a perfect and Heavenly state until sin entered. When Adam and Eve sinned, it did not alter the plan of God but rather makes it seemingly prolonged. Though they were driven from their heavenly garden, they had hope on a heavenly city. God’s ultimate plan for man is not a Heavenly garden but a Heavenly city (The New Jerusalem)

The word of God is immutable. This has been the target of the devil. He is either trying to change the word and alter His plan for you or pointing an accusing finger. When man sinned in the Garden of Eden, it was the plan of Satan to terminate and make total annihilation to human race and thereby altering God’s plan to multiply and inherit the earth. God said to Adam,

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. Genesis2:17

The soul that sinneth, it shall die. Ezekiel18:20

For the wages of sin is death; Romans6:23

Capitalizing on these Bible verses, Satan convinced and deceived Adam and Eve to sin against God. This is an attempt for the devil to wipe out the human race and enslave them perpetually in Hell. The principle of divine justice is that the soul (life or person) that sins shall die. The word of God is unchangeable. Therefore, Satan expected God to fulfill His word by killing Adam and Eve and make them Hell bound because they have sinned against Him. If God had allowed the death of Adam and Eve at that material time, you and I wouldn’t have been born. The world would not have existed. God’s plan would have been defeated. The number 1 rebel leader (Satan) had the plan to stop or alter God’s plan. In any case, God is God. He is Omni-potent- all powerful. He is Omnipresent- Present everywhere at the same time. He is Omniscient- He knows all things (past, present and future). The rebellious act of Satan was not a surprise to God.
