SECTION 1 During these first nine lessons I would like to talk about why we are here on this planet called Earth. I do not believe we are here by chance or by some cosmic accident. It is obvious there is a purpose for our existence and that is what Lessons 1-9 are about. LESSON 3 ─ Why is life so difficult? (part 2) Bible References: Colossians 1:13 (1)Genesis 3:1-24/Romans 5:17-18/Ephesians 2:1-3 (2)Genesis 1:24-25 (3)Matthew 25:34 (4)2 Peter 3:10-13 (5)1 Peter 1:3-11/Romans 12:2/Ephesians 4:22-24 (6)John 18:36 (7)John 3:3-8 (8) Good morning and welcome to another Lesson From The Tent. I hope this past week you have begun to see that everything wrong in life is actually the result of this domain of darkness.(1) I also hope you have been able to see that this is not a problem that you can just wish away and everything gets better because that’s not ever going to happen. The core of this problem is us – all of us. It is you and it is me, but multiplied, by seven billion other blindly ignorant people. And then there is the issue of Satan and his demonic followers who have made it their chief goal to keep us blindly ignorant people thinking this world we live in is ok. This leaves us in a real predicament; we humans have no ability to rescue ourselves out of this mixed-up life even if we understand how awful it is. And this brings us to the only solution to our dilemma. God is the only one capable of all that is needed to address what is behind this powerful and deceiving, blindly ignorant world of freewill. Let’s first look at the reason our ability to make our own choices is so messed up. Because God did not create us humans this way. Our ability to make wrong choices came as the result of the first two people God created when they were deceived by Satan and then ignorantly choose to disobey God’s one rule He gave them. The moment they did, this instantly killed their natural ability to choose right.(2) From that moment on, this world has only gotten worse with every new generation because broken things don’t produce something better. Every person born as the result of these first two fallen people has a powerful and natural bent towards making wrong choices and there is nothing any human can do to change that. Let me give you an illustration of what I mean. You can educate a monkey every day for thirty years and he will never be able to make the choices necessary to build a hospital. And neither can more education change us blindly ignorant humans back into the innocent and righteous people God originally designed us to be. God made all living things to produce after their own kind. Elephants produce elephants, cats produce cats and broken people produce more broken people.(3) This is why there are seven billion blindly ignorant humans on earth. And you have got to realize it is these same broken people who make the rules and grow the culture you and I live in. But when you understand this, how can something so integrated into the basic fiber of everyday life ever be changed back to its original righteously innocent state? As we learned last week though, God does have a plan to rescue us from our predicament, and this is where things really get interesting. If you remember from the first lesson, God’s ultimate goal for us humans is to become favored by Him so we can inherit the kingdom. (4) God’s solution to the domain of darkness world that we live in is the kingdom of His beloved Son. And how all this takes place is what these Lessons From The Tent are about. Let me try to whet your appetite for what God is doing. His plan is to rescue us out of this impossible situation. But He is not going to do away with this powerful domain of darkness world. At least not right now.(5) Instead, He has established His kingdom to reign on earth, and it is immensely more powerful than the domain of darkness world. If you have been transferred to the kingdom of God’s beloved Son, you will still have a physical home in this blindly ignorant world and still go to work in it every day. But, at the same time, you will also be living in a completely different world that is unlike anything you have ever experienced before. Does that sound a bit confusing or even too challenging to believe? I will be the first to admit, it really does. But we are not talking about something that we humans can do. God is outside the realm of the world we know, and He has the power and the ability to fix this complex problem. And this is what is so great ─ His kingdom is a world unlike anything you could ever imagine. It is as real as the ground you walk on, but it is as invisible and necessary as the air you breathe. What is so unique though is when God transfers someone into the kingdom of His beloved Son, they begin a life that is constantly changing for the better as they start a process of growing back into what they were originally created to be.(6) This transformation is designed by God to take place daily, ...
