By Tumisang Mabe

God is building a kingdom were his government will govern throughout all eternity. God started this with angels and some of them failed by disobeying Him. God tried this with men but they also disobeyed. God tested both angels and men to practice their own will in choosing Him. It will interested you to know that the test of God is still going on we are all in this test. Those who will conquer are those who will do the will of the Father by following Jesus. When the first men and women failed the test by eating the forbidden fruit. God never stopped with this test because He sent His Son to be a provision of what was lost. Jesus brings eternal life life. You are tested and I am tested everyone is being tested by been allowed to choose for themselves which kingdom we will belongs to throughout all eternity. Many people want God to make them to follow Him but I tell you God cannot do that because he gave every men free will to choose for themselves. Many think that it is not fair for God to bring them in this chaos called the earth but we are missing the point! The same test God put Adam is the same test we are given. If one chooses Jesus they choose life but if one chooses sin then they choose death. God placed two trees in the garden of Eden the tree of life and the tree of death and men choose death instead of life. The great question all men must answer is what are you choosing? Are you choosing life or are you choosing death. Many of us will say we choose life but the fruits of our lives will determine what we really choose.

CHAPTER 1

Why men are here?

G

od is  looking for men to fill positions when we get to heaven, what a believer does here on earth will determine what they’re going to be and what they are going to do in heaven. God is a creator; right now the universe is expanding faster than the speed of light. God is looking for people who are determined in their call in Christ, so that he can filter them in different positions available in heaven. Eternity is forever and people will not just sit there and say we are victors, no there is enough activity in heaven for everyone!

In the book of the Watchers written by Enoch we are told that angels came on earth and they had intercourse with women and giants when born, one may ask, was this the will of God? No it was not, the book classifies that these angels were Watchers over men. God had assign them to guide men. When we read on we hear that men were increasing greatly and these 200 angels saw that there were born among men fair (beautiful) women and these watches desired them. They came and chose one for themselves and defiled themselves with the daughters on men. As a result these angels taught men secrets of heaven; how to read stars, astrology, how to make swords, shields, how to make colored dyes, perfumes, even ink and how to write and more! (Reference of this in scripture read Genesis 6), God gave this judgment to the watchers, You have been in heaven, but all the mysteries had not yet been revealed to you, and you knew worthless ones, and these in the hardness of your hearts you have made known to the women, and through these mysteries women and men work much evil on earth. Chapter XVI. There are mysteries in heaven and these angels taught some of the secrets to men.  Because of what those angels taught men we read that there was much evil on earth and men cried out to God. As a result God destroyed men with a flood in the days of Noah and arrested those angels beneath the earth.

Who will fill positions in heaven?

Those who go on the rapture are the people who will fill positions when we get to heaven. Those people in the Millennial kingdom; they’re not going to have the same body we will have, they’re are going to have the body we have now with its limitations, they’re going to have to eat of the tree of life to stay alive, they’re going to have to eat of the leaves for the healing of the nations, but those who go on the rapture will have a new body like Jesus. We will have Gods nature flowing in our veins. Do you know what kind of a body that is? It’s a spiritual body which does not operate by the rules of gravity; with that new body we will be able to go through the walls, able to disappear and appear somewhere, distance will not be a barrier. Ascend and descend to heaven and earth as much as we want.

We are called to fill these positions

What do you think Lucifer was when he sinned, he was not in heaven; he was here, assigned as the guardian of the mineral earth, so he coveted an office, a position, he coveted, a ministry! For thou has said in thy heart I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. (Isaiah 14:13) The stars of God there is the angelic level so he said I’m going to go beyond the angelic level, so the place he was coveting was beyond the angelic level ‘I will exalt my throne’ and notice he was a throne entity so he had a throne. If we see that he had a throne it means that he was part of Gods senate. In God’s senate there is a number of angels that must be present, they are reporting agencies that must be present in the court of heaven before God will sit to judge. And all these ranking angels have thrones, there is also an aspect
