GOD'S MASTER PLAN - THE TRUTH by Prof. F J de Waal, UDW

FINITE (LIMITED) MINDS SHOULD BE CAREFUL WHEN DEALING WITH THE INFINITE (LIMITLESS ONES)! Ecclesiastes 5:2 Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter [any] thing before God: for God [is] in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.

Job 11:7 Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection? Job 37:23 [Touching] the Almighty, we cannot find him out: [he is] excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.

Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret [things belong] unto the LORD our God: but those [things which are] revealed [belong] unto us and to our children for ever, that [we] may do all the words of this law.

BEFORE SIN AND LATER CREATION GOD PREPARED THE PLAN OF SALVATION! Re 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

THE DIVINE ONES (ELOHIM) AGREED AMONGST THEMSELVES THAT ONE OF THEM WOULD ADOPT THE ROLE OF A FATHER AND THE OTHER THE ROLE OF THE SON! Ps 2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou [art] my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Zec 6:13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both. Zec 13:7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man [that is] my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones. Php 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Php 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

BY AGREEMENT CHRIST STEPPED DOWN FROM A POSITION OF EQUALITY IN THE GODHEAD TO BECOME MAN'S SACRIFICE! GOD IN HIS FULL GLORY COULD NOT BE INCARNATED AND 'TASTE DEATH FOR EVERY MAN' (HEB 2:9)! Rev 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending,} saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Colossians 2:9 For in him (Christ) dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. John 10:18 {No man taketh it (Christ's life) from me (Christ), but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Joh 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

SIN ORIGINATED IN THE COVERING ANGEL IN HEAVEN, AS GOD ANTICIPATED, A THIRD OF THE ANGELS ARE DECEIVED AND FALL FROM SINLESSNESS TO SINFULNESS! Eze 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone [was] thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Eze 28:14 Thou [art] the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee [so]: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Eze 28:15 Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. Eze 28:17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

GOD IS HOLY AND SIN/SINFULNESS DOES NOT SURVIVE IN HIS PRESENCE! THERE IS A WAR IN HEAVEN! Re 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, Re 12:8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. Re 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

SATAN AND HIS EVIL ANGELS ARE CONFINED TO THIS WORLD, DARK, VOID, WITHOUT FORM OR FIRMAMENT AND SURROUNDED BY A WATER MASS! Re 12:12 Therefore rejoice, [ye] heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Re 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man [child].

AT THIS POINT THE EARTH, DARK, VOID, WITHOUT FORM OR FIRMAMENT AND SURROUNDED BY A WATER MASS, IS CREATED TO ITS ANTEDILUVIAN STATE! Ge 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Ge 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep (WATER MASS). And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Ge 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. Ge 1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which [were] under the firmament from the waters which [were] above the firmament: and it was so. Ge 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry [land] appear: and it was so.

MAN IS CREATED AS A UNIQUE SPECIES WITH A SINLESS NATURE IN GOD'S IMAGE AND LIKENESS! Ge 5:1 This [is] the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;

THE FORMER COVERING ANGEL, NOW SATAN, ENTICES MAN INTO SIN! Ge 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? Ge 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: Ge 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make [one] wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

MAN BECOMES A SLAVE TO SIN AND RECEIVES A SINFUL NATURE! Ge 3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they [were] naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. Ge 3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou [wast] naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?

GOD IS HOLY AND SIN/SINFULNESS DOES NOT SURVIVE IN HIS PRESENCE! SINFUL HUMANS ARE EVICTED FROM EDEN AND DIE AS GOD SAID THEY WOULD! Ge 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life. Ge 5:5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

GOD PROMISES THAT MAN'S SEED WILL CRUSH THE SERPENT'S (SATAN'S) HEAD! Ge 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

GOD IS MERCIFUL AND FORGIVING, BUT MAN'S SINFULNESS HAS NO BOUNDS! Ge 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man [was] great in the earth, and [that] every imagination of the thoughts of his heart [was] only evil continually.

THE FLOOD BECOMES UNAVOIDABLE AND ALL BUT NOAH'S FAMILY DIES! Ge 6:13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. Ge 7:7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

MAN CONTINUES TO REBEL AGAINST GOD AND ARE DISPERSED THROUGH THE EARTH! Ge 11:4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top [may reach] unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. Ge 11:6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Ge 11:7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. Ge 11:8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

GOD CHOOSES ABRAHAM AND HIS DESCENDANTS (ISRAEL) AS THE CONDUIT/CHANNEL FOR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HIMSELF, HIS GRACE AND THE SALVATION OF MAN! Ge 12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: Ge 12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: Ge 22:17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which [is] upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

GOD STILL HAS 7000 FAITHFUL ONES LEFT IN ISRAEL IN THE DAYS OF ELIJAH! 1Ki 19:18 Yet I have left [me] seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.

ISRAEL FAILS AND ARE FINALLY GIVEN 490 YEARS TO TURN FROM THEIR SIN! THIS PERIOD ENDED IN 34 A.D.! Da 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Da 9:25 Know therefore and understand, [that] from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince [shall be] seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. Da 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof [shall be] with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. Da 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

ISRAEL CRUSIFIED THE MESSIAH AND PERSECUTED GOD'S CHILDREN! Mt 27:25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.

GOD EXTENDS HIS GRACE AND SPIRIT TO 'WHOSOEVER' WANTS TO BELIEVE! Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

THE EARLY NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH SERVES GOD WITH PURE HEARTS AND ARE PERSECUTED! Re 2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus (FIRST - 100 A.D.) write; Re 2:2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: Re 2:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.

PERSECUTION STOPPED AND BAPTIZED PAGANISM ENTERED THE CHURCH! Re 2:12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos (THIRD - 323-538 A.D.) write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges; Re 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, [even] where Satan's seat [is]: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas [was] my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

FOR 1260 YEARS POPULAR CHRISTIANITY, DENIED MAN FREE ACCESS TO THE BIBLE AND KEEPS MANKIND IN DARKNESS! Re 2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira (FOURTH - 538 A.D.-REFORMATION {16th CENTURY}) write; Re 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

THE COMMANDMENTS, TRADITIONS AND CUSTOMS OF MEN BECOME CHURCH DOCTRINE! Re 3:1 And unto the angel of the church in Sardis (FIFTH - REFORMATION 16th-1798 A.D.) write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. Re 3:2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.

THE PROTESTANT REFORMATION ATTEMPTS TO IDENTIFY THE ANTICHRIST AND TURN PEOPLE BACK TO THE BIBLE! THE BIBLE BECOMES THE ALL TIME BEST SELLING BOOK IN THE WORLD! Re 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia (SIXTH - 1798-1844 A.D) write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; Re 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. SINCE 1798 THIS WORLD ENTERED THE 'LATTER DAYS' THE BOOKS OF REVELATION AND DANIEL ARE UNLOCKED TO MAN'S UNDERSTANDING!

GOD WILL HAVE THE THIRD (LOST FROM HEAVEN) BACK FROM THIS EARTH! Zec 13:8 And it shall come to pass, [that] in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off [and] die; but the third shall be left therein. Zec 13:9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It [is] my people: and they shall say, The LORD [is] my God.

WHEN THE FINAL PERSON, TO MAKE-UP THE THIRD, CHOOSES THE DOOR OF PROBATION CLOSES AND THE SEVEN LAST PLAGUES FALL ON THE EARTH! Re 7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. Re 15:7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. Re 15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

GOD'S COMMANDKEEPING CHILDREN SUFFER ECONOMIC SANCTIONS AND FINALLY A DEATH DECREE! Re 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Re 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Re 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Re 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

AS WICKED MEN ARE ABOUT TO KILL ALL GOD'S CHILDREN CHRIST COMES IN GREAT POWER AND GLORY TO REDEEM HIS OWN AND KILL ALL THE LIVE WICKED! Re 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him [was] called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. Re 19:12 His eyes [were] as a flame of fire, and on his head [were] many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. Re 19:13 And he [was] clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. Re 19:14 And the armies [which were] in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Re 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. Re 19:16 And he hath on [his] vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. Re 19:19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.

GOD'S RESURRECTED (DEAD) AND TRANSLATED (LIVING) SAINTS MEET CHRIST IN THE AIR AND SPENDS 1000 YEARS WITH HIM IN HEAVEN! 1Th 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 1Th 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

THE SAINTS JUDGE ALL THE LOST, INCLUDING WICKED ANGELS! Re 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received [his] mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

AFTER THE MILLINIUM THE NEW CITY, JERUSALEM, DESCENDS FROM HEAVEN AND LANDS IN A VALLEY CREATED BY THE MOUNT OF OLIVES, WHICH SPLITS OPEN! Re 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Re 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. Re 21:3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, [and be] their God. Re 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Re 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. Re 19:21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which [sword] proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

THE SAME FIRE MELTS THE ELEMENTS, RECREATES THE EARTH AND CLEANS THE ATMOSPHERE! 2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 2Pe 3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 2Pe 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

THE THRONE OF GOD MOVES TO THIS EARTH AND GOD AND HIS CHRIST LIVES HERE WITH THEIR REDEEMED FOREVER, WITHOUT SIN!

YET IN THE LAST DAYS OF THIS EARTH'S HISTORY MAN IS LUKEWARM AND NEEDS TO REPENT! Re 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; Re 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. Re 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Re 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: Re 3:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and [that] the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. Re 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
