Alteration and Civilisation

Alteration and Civilisation

Ecclesiastes 1:9 -10 The thing that hath been, it [is that] which shall be; and that which is done [is] that which shall be done: and [there is] no new [thing] under the sun. 10 Is there [any] thing whereof it may be said, See, this [is] new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

Throughout the ages it has been shown to be true that if given enough time and space, there are two very important fundamental Biblical facts which most Believers will eventually forget. And by failing to remember these details, Believers have always become more susceptible to the manipulations of those outside influences who have become aware of this bout of ignorance. And by seizing upon this momentary lapse in memory, those outside influence have led them to embrace and accept various false doctrines and manners of behavior. These are those doctrines and behaviors which are cleverly manufactured to appeal to the individual's base instinct, while simultaneously appearing to aid mankind. But unbeknownst to those who have fallen, is the fact that these innocuously and beneficially seeming modifications, have in fact been constructed for the purpose of disablement. And after disablement, Believers would then eventually face neutralization.

The authors of the Scripture were very much aware of this recurring fact. And in an effort to counter this cyclical process, along with the incalculable destruction which always follows it, these writers have made an attempt to inform future Believers. Through several passages in the Scripture, One is able to find their warnings and notifications. But as always, these notices are always greeted with the same reception; they are ignored by many and understood only by a few. And to the detriment of those who have failed to heed, that degenerative process is once again repeated.

Fortunately all has not yet been lost. Because of God's Grace and Mercy, there is still a small but sufficient amount of time to repent and remember those things which were forgotten. And after full repentance is made, One must busy themselves to prepare for those first works which were done by those earlier generations.

The first of the two fundamental Biblical facts which Believers must remember, deals with God's nature. God is. And therefore, because he is, his fundamental nature is immutable. It does not change and it will not change. This means that the way that he is in the past is the way that he is in the present, and it will be the way that he is in the future. Though some may have come to believe so, the change of society and technology has no affect on this nature. He exists to change man and not for man to change him.

The second fundamental Biblical fact which One must remember is found in (Eccles. 1:9). Since time is cyclical, reality repeats itself. Therefore, in (Eccles. 1:9), we are reminded that there is no new thing under the sun. This may be summed up as, "Everything that was, is. Everything that is, was. And everything that was and is, will be." There are no new trials, pitfalls, obstacles, and tribulations. All the trials and tribulations which come with this life did not just miraculously appear in this age (1 Cor. 10:13). They have been here during past generations and they will be here in generations to come. There are no new sins and violations. All the sins and violations which are prevalent in the earth today are the same types of sins and transgressions which were prevalent in the earth of old. There is no new End Times. The End Times that Believers are living in today has been and when it is finished, another one will follow. And when that one finishes, another End Times will appear. And the cycle will repeat itself for eternity.

Since God's fundamental nature has not changed and there is no new thing under the sun, then One should logically come to five fundamental conclusions:

First, in the presence of God, sin is still sin. And since this is still the case, then this means, that no matter the situation or the person, lying, stealing, killing, adultery, bearing false witness, and covetousness are still considered to be sins.

Secondly, God has not altered his Judgements. Since sin is still sin, then his Judgements for those infractions are still the same. Therefore, regardless of One's self- designation or affiliation, the Judgement for sin is still death. This means that whether One is an individual or a nation, the sentence for violations is still death (Ezekiel 18:4)

Thirdly, God has not altered his policy of accepting repentance. Since God has not changed his Judgements and Grace and Mercy are part of his inherent nature, he still accepts and welcomes repentance. Instead of man's destruction, God still prefers to see the repentance of souls. (Ezekiel 18:32, Ezekiel 33:11Deut. 5:26). He still punishes those who disobey and he still rewards those who are obedient (Prov. 26:10). He still changes the positions of nations and rewards those who have truly forsaken all for him; thereby, making the first last and the last first (Matt. 19:30)

C. Since all is the same, then salvation and the deliverance of Believers still remains the same. God will save and deliver this generation in the same way that he has delivered previous generations of Believers. Some have postulated that there is a new method of deliverance which was not revealed to the ancients. This is categorically wrong. There is no such thing as a new and improved way of deliverance.

D. Since all is still the same, then there are no new outcomes. The only thing that changes is the combination or sequence of events which leads One to arrive at a certain conclusion. Therefore, the wages of sin, still remains death. The way that two people may arrive at that death may differ, but at the end, both will arrive at the same conclusion

Fifthly, the role of Messias has not changed: Everything that he had to accomplish in the past to obtain the title Messias has not changed. His clerical duties have not changed. His teaching and feeding of the multitudes has not changed. The inability of the people to recognize him has not changed. And the attempt by those in power to kill him has not changed.

Finally, these two fundamental Biblical principles do not change. In the past, they have not changed. And when comes the future, they will not change. They have been around since the Start of the physical universe. And they will be there at its Finish. An old artifact is new to him who stumbles upon it. But to him who lost it, that artifact is not considered as new. That artifact may have been around for thousands of years. Its subsequent discovery only makes it new to the discoverer. So, Believers must understand that in essence nothing has changed. In essence nothing is new. That which is considered to be new by many, is only new because it has not been seen in this life before. Over countless ages, the ancients through the spirit of God became aware of this fact. And for those who will become alive, they compiled these details in the Scriptures for their preservation.
