This post continues from where I have left off at Pharaoh King of Egypt (Part 22), where I have discussed from scripture how the “mystery of iniquity” is at work in mankind to bring about a change, so that that man of sin, the son of perdition might be revealed in his time.
thank you Max, my brother, for opening our Lord’s word with such diligence and clarity -
Psalm 1: 1-2 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.
I’ve never seen that point made about the two trees being represented through the two women, the true faith and the mystery religion. Very profound observation.
I reread those chapters in Genesis after reading your essay. It stood out to me when the serpent beguiles Eve, they become fixated upon the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, totally ignoring the tree of life.
Kinda like a lot of these pastors nowadays, but I digress haha
That's true brother. The pharisaical churches today are pointing us to the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, instead of the tree of life. However, an honest and good heart will always seek the truth, and will find the truth. The love of the truth in a born again believer will ensure that he will find the truth, just like what happened to brother King Nebuchadnezzar or brother Nicodemus.
