END-TIME SCENARIO
In the beginning, God did not create man to live in heaven. The earth was a physical heaven created for His offspring. God’s plan before creation was not for mankind to return to him in human form. “The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’S; but the earth He has given to the children of men.” (Ps 115:16 NKJV) In heaven God’s children in pure spirit form are idle. They have no idea of what it means to have dominion, portray royalty or exercise leadership. Earth is heaven’s colony for the children of God.
Hypostatic Chips as I choose to describe God’s children in pure spirit form had always been with the Father in heaven and before creation. The rebellion of a third of angelic hosts created a vacuum in heaven. No spirit or personality can alter the plan of God.
Angels are spirit-beings created to serve God and His children in heaven and on earth. They have the capacity to change to human or other form required to accomplish their assignment.
All angels are servants of God but Lucifer had the additional responsibility of heading the worship of God in heaven. Jesus said that God is looking for those who will worship Him in spirit and in truth. That is the primary purpose of the Church. Other purposes include assisting the Lord Jesus Christ rule the earth for one thousand years to begin with. Saints are kings and lords with an elite corps as Priests in the similitude of Levitical order and Aaronic Priesthood. Saints are worshippers of God and the Lamb but Priests are the choir leaders both in heaven and on earth. All saints will inhabit the universe eternally but glorified saints will live in New Jerusalem which is midway between heaven and earth while saints in human body will inhabit the earth permanently. Earth’s dwellers are perfected human beings whereas glorified saints have humans and angelic characteristics.
Mankind was created in Adam. As a result of his disobedience to the commandment of God Adam fell short of the glory of God. The Hypostatic Chip that made him a god was withdrawn. His body was to return to the dust that was used in forming it while his innerman comprising spirit and soul was to be confined in the lake of fire at the end of human dispensations. The offspring of Adam inherited the same punishment. “For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.” (Rom 5:19 NKJV)
So, since all that come into the world are deemed dead, one must be born of God to be translated from death to life by the infusion of eternal life, which is resident in the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, to see life one must be born of God the Holy Spirit, live as one born of God whose sins have been washed away by the blood of Jesus and abide in Christ to the end, which could be physical death or Church rapture, whichever occurs first. The final word is to fulfil destiny as inscribed in every believer’s Hypostatic Chip and enter heaven in grand style by occupying preordained position in eternity.
Entering heaven?
Entry into heaven is a function of discovering and following one’s ‘Growth Path’ to the end of life on earth. Growth Paths are programmed into Hypostatic Chips, the life-giver from God received at the point of salvation. The Chip is activated through obedience to the Holy Spirit who uses the programs in the Chip to form Christ in yielded human vessels. Total sanctification of spirit, soul and body is the cut-off mark for entry into heaven. Perfection is possible for it is the work of God.
The idea that being born again is sufficient to gain entry into heaven is grossly in error. Only those who overcome the allurements of the world system and the temptation of the flesh can enter heaven. Those who overcome the devil, the world, their flesh and the ‘little foxes that spoil the vine’ have a chance of inheriting and ruling the new earth while living in the New Jerusalem. Have you ever wondered where Jesus lodged during the forty days’ interval between His resurrection and ascension into heaven? He lived in heaven while supervising operations on earth until the Holy Spirit assumed duty.
Success in life does not depend on what you have but who you are and who has you. Prosperity is a function of character. Character depends on integrity. Your integrity is measured by who you know and not the quantum of your material possessions. Wealth acquired without God is wicked prosperity. The quality of your relationship with the Holy Spirit determines the level of your integrity. Success in life without Christ is an absolute failure. It is easy to be a hero in nothing. At the end of life in the flesh, the vital questions will be:
-
Did you live the abundant life on earth? Abundant life is life lived in the power of the Holy Spirit.
-
Did you make it to heaven? Only those who satisfy the Master’s conditions can enter heaven.
-
In heaven, did you attain your expected end? Jesus said: ‘Behold I come quickly and My reward is with Me’ (Revelation 22:12). The reward of Jesus is to be as close as possible to Him in heaven.
