This Present Evil Age

Friend, the Apostle of Jesus Christ, Paul, writes about this present evil age in Galatians Chapter 1:4; saying that Jesus gave Himself as a Sacrifice for us who have a sin nature, and for us who might be set free in this evil age we have been born into.

The believers in Galatia had heard about Jesus and had become followers. However, their other kinfolk and friends still under The Law, were doing satan's work by admonishing the new believers about their new found belief; quoting The Law.

They were well meaning, but the new believers were being drawn back into The Law, questioning what Jesus had done on The Cross.

Instead the believers should have been proclaiming the Truth they had found, but they were weak in Knowledge; yet all would have had their own personal testimony of being freed from The Law.

The battle between Good and evil is real. Many would think they were born here by mistake.

Not so.

Everything God does is Perfect and has a Perfect Purpose.

We are born into this world for a Purpose.

Everyone. All have a purpose here. We come at the Perfect time. 

We enter the world with the blessing of God to do so.

It's not by chance.

There may be many workings behind the scenes of what we can see, or know, while on earth; but we come by God's Design for our soul.

Once we settle that in our heart, and know that He is our real Heavenly Father, who cares for us, and wants us to succeed in the calling He has put on our life, to know His Son, we should not continue to have any bad thoughts about Him.

We should understand that being our creator and Father He is Good.

Any sinful ways in us is from our choices. We may have observed generational sins within our families and been drawn into those sins but God says, they can be overcome with His help.

The time we have on earth is for coming into close relationship with God.

If we wait till the last moment of life, we will have wasted many wonderful years of fellowship with Him.

Our Saviour has His arm outstretched to us at all times. He's saying that He didn't go to The Cross for nothing. He went there to accomplish a Great Plan; one that would settle the requirements of The Law; God Himself.

Mankind is just one tiny creation in the great cosmos; yet God wants to be intimately connected with us individually. We're not just a bunch of souls indistinguishable from another. No we all have the imprint of our Maker within.

He can instanty recognise each of us, each animal, plant, pebble and mountain. Everything is created by Him and known by Him; therefore, owned by Him to do with as He pleases.

He loves us but when we don't reciprocate and our inner core is filled with hate for Him, we will be like the fig tree that wouldn't produce it's fruit for Him.

Ultimately those who hate Him will be removed from His Realm of Goodness, Truth, and Power and cast aside into a place prepared by The Law.

While on earth, we have a chance to hear His Word, to grow in Knowledge about Him, to make wise choices with the help of The Spirit.

We just need to have ears that are ready to hear, eyes that will read The Bible, a mouth that will pray and praise and a heart surrendered to know Truth.
