It was clear to them that it was nothing more than the Semitic myth that the morning star fell from heaven. Myth means an invented story of an imaginary person, or thing coming down from the past which many people have believed. And it is this that the fate of the King of Babylon is compared in Isaiah 14:12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThere is no Scriptural teaching that the Devil was one time an angelic being in heaven, or that he is a fallen angel. That is wholly a myth or legend passed down through the ages of heathen people, and is heathenish teaching. Semite, meaning the descendants of Shem, a member of the white division of the human race. In ancient times including the Babylonians, Assyrians, Armenians, Phoenicians, and various other people of Southwestern Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe theory that sometime, somewhere, God created certain angelic beings and put them on probation is wholly unscriptural, and false. The only created, creature of God, put on probation was man. Probation means nothing more than during a time of living on earth man is to live by the rules of God. But during this time there will be periods when he will have temptations, trials, testing his conduct and character. Mankind is the only created creature of God placed in this realm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eGod’s created, angelic beings are the Spirit of God, which was part of God himself, with no power of choice. They could do nothing more than the will and bidings of their creator. It is absurd to think that God would rebel against Himself, and put part of Himself out of heaven, to corrupt and destroy his only creation of an intelligent being (man) that he desired to enjoy daily communion and companionship with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe people of the New Testament whom Peter, and Jude wrote referring to the Angels that sinned, understood clearly that the writer was dealing with the Patriarchs before the flood, who kept not their position as holy men of God, designed to be leaders of God’s people during the antediluvian age, but fell from this high plane, to the lowest state of sin, rebellion, and corruption. They did not need a long treatise on who the writer had reference, but it was clear to them, as well as the statements about Sodom and Gomorrah, Lot, and Egypt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIt is tragic to see how since the time of the 16th Century Reformation, and especially during recent times this false theory has interwoven itself so strongly in the dogma of denominationalism and supposedly evangelical religion. The basic reason for this is to destroy the eternal phase of God’s glorious plan of eternal salvation. If an angelic being created of God, the Spirit of God, part of God, with no power of choice can rebel, there is no assurance that man a created being with the power of choice will not at some time rebel in heaven, get put out, and lose his eternal state and home in glory. The plan of God is eternal. When once in heaven, one will forever be with the Lord. To expose the false and give the true Scriptural truth is very disturbing to the Devil and his messengers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTherefore, with love let me say, get your Bible and prayerfully peruse this book with one thing in mind, that what I believe and teach must be Biblically sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eYours for the Truth,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003eLawrence J.

Closer Look at God's Church: A Biblical Evaluation of Key Beliefs of the Church of God","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Church of God Reformation Movement began in the early 1880s under the leadership of D. S. Warner and those who joined with him in search of a unified church. Their goal was simply to be God’s holy people free from all denominational division. After more than 135 years of existence, this movement has grown so that it has congregations located around the world. Those affiliated with the Church of God have included well-known individuals such as Charles Schulz, the creator of Charlie Brown, and singers and songwriters Bill and Gloria Gaither. So what is the Church of God? What are its beliefs and have those beliefs changed since its inception? In this book, Mark Jackson examines ten key beliefs of the Church of God and evaluates them in light of Scripture. These beliefs are the authority of Scripture, salvation and church membership, the assurance of salvation, church ordinances, victory over sin, the work of the Holy Spirit, conditional security, divine healing, Christian unity, and the kingdom of God. Whether affiliated with the Church of God or not, this book offers to readers a clear and biblical presentation of beliefs that should be important to all Christians.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reformation Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Softcover","offer_id":46639493054692,"sku":"JB-XWX6-BJSH","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/9773\/0532\/files\/ACloserLookatGod_sChurch.jpg?v=1755897730"},{"product_id":"salvation","title":"Salvation","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“What must I do to be saved?” This is one of the greatest questions ever asked. It was a question posed by a jailer in the ancient city of Philippi. The answer he received from Paul and Silas was clear: “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household” (see Acts 16.30-31). This book is about salvation. It explains what salvation is, how God’s plan to save us preceded creation itself, how to receive salvation for ourselves, how to be assured of our salvation, and much more. Salvation simply means deliverance. To be saved is to be delivered or rescued from the consequences and control of sin. If you have already experienced salvation in Christ, this book will deepen your understanding and appreciation of salvation.
