Luke13:31 On that same day, some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."
Luke13:32 He said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.
† The Son's being forsaken on the cross seems to have been expressed by the Son as becoming perfect.[1] After finishing His work, the Son will eventually die on the cross.
Luke13:33 Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it can't be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.'
† But the Son said that He would not be killed by Herod now. The Son uses 3 days in Hades, today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.
Matt.12:40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
† The Son stayed in the tomb for 3 days and rose on the 3rd day. He stayed in the tomb for 3 days according to human date calculation, However, even according to God's date calculation, the Son preserves Hades, the tomb of the creation world, for 3 days before judgment. Just as He makes lights in the expanse on the 4th day[2], the Son comes at the end of the 4th day. The Son who is the light comes into the expanse of darkness.[3] This is the 4th day. The 4th day that the Son came, is today. The 5th day is tomorrow. At the end of the 6th day, the day after tomorrow, that is, the 6th millenium, the Son makes Satan a footstool of His feet by causing the firstfruits who are redeemed from among men, to be brought forth.[4] The Son did not judge Hades on the 4th, 5th, and 6th day, that is, today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, but preserves it. When the 6 stone water jars are filled to the brim[5], and the 144000 firstfruits[6] who obey God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus[7] are produced, the water in the 6 stone water jars is turned into wine for the wedding[8], and the truthfulness of the commandments is proved, and Satan's lies are exposed.
† Each of the 6 stone jars symbolizes 1000 years. The Son who came on the 4th day, at the end of the 4th millenium, after He created Adam[9], was resurrected and is now seated on the true throne in the heaven of angels. The Son will wait on the throne 2000 more years after His resurrection until 6000 years are full. When the firstfruits, the bride, are ready[10], the Son will come again into Hades and imprison Satan fraudswarms in the abyss[11], and establish His kindom for 1000 years. Therefore, in the creation world, the rest begins on the 7th day, at the beginning of the 7th millenium, after He created Adam.[12]

| 2020 AD | Adam 6022 or Adam 6227 | ||||
| Generally, the year of birth of Abraham who was born in Adam2008, is considered to be 2166 BC. (I don't know how this view came about.) According to this view, Adam was made in 2008+2166=4174 BC. (Sin the year of Adam was created is 0, and Adam2008 is 2166 BC, it is added as it is. I am now counting the year following the creation of Adam as the 1st year of Adam. Adam2000 is 2174 BC and Adam2010 is 2164 BC. If 4174 BC is Adam 0 and 4173 BC is Adam1, then 1 BC is Adam 4173 and AD 1 is Adam 4174. So AD 2019 is now 4174+2019-1=Adam6192. (There is neither 0 BC or AD 0. Since AD 1 is Adam4174 not AD 0, add 2019 and then subtract 1.) Now in 2019, the academic world believes that the LORD Jesus was born as a creature in 4 BC, and I am counting 4174 BC as Adam0. 4 BC is 4174-4=4170 years from 4174 BC., that is, 4170 years from Adam0, so 4 BC. becomes Adam4170. When calculating the number of days of creation, the Bible sees one day as 1000 years.[40] If the LORD Jesus came as a creature in Adam4170, did the LORD Jesus come at the beginning of the 5th day, not the end of the 4th day? If it is AD 2019, the year of Adam6192, the 7th day, that is, the 1000-year kingdom should have already come to pass, but the LORD Jesus has not yet come again. If so, is it wrong to try to calculate the approximate time by counting 1 day as 1000 years? My thoughts are this. It is certain that Abraham was born in Adam2008, but it is not certain whether Adam2008 was indeed 2166 BC. I think it is too much to try count the days of creation in 1000-year units as exact dates. It is the 70-weeks prophecy, a more specific prophecy, that must be calculated with the exact date. One week in 70-weeks is literally 7 years[41], and 1260 days in a week is literally 1260 days.[42] Even if it is true that Abraham was born in 2166 BC, and if it is true that the LORD Jesus came as a creature in Adam4170, and it is true that the LORD Jesus has not yet returned in Adam 6192, even if it is true, it is undeniable that AD 2019 is the last time which is the phenomenon of the end times appearing as it is. The LORD Jesus will surely come again soon. And I guess the claim that Adam2008 is 2166 BC would not be accurate. I believe that the LORD Jesus came at the end of the 4th day and I believe that AD 2019 is now near the end of the 6th day.[43] |

① Day 1 (the 4th day after Adam was created): The Word coming as the light into darkness.
Gen.1:2 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
Gen.1:3 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
Gen.1:4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.
Gen.1:5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
† The Son, the light, came into the earth after being with His Father.[44] (I am now thinking as a creature that cannot escape time. The Son is the Maker[45] and Sustainer of space-time.[46])
John1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
John1:3 All things were made through him. Without him was not anything made that has been made.
† The Creator who is the true light has come to this world.
John1:9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
John1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn't recognize him.
John1:11 He came to his own, and those who were his own didn't receive him.
John1:12 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name:
John1:13 who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
John1:14 The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
† The Word became Adam.[47]
Gen.1:14 God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
Gen.1:15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of sky to give light on the earth," and it was so.
Gen.1:16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.
Gen.1:17 God set them in the expanse of sky to give light to the earth,
Gen.1:18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.
Gen.1:19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
† God gave light to this land. This light is the Son. When we consider 1 day in 7 days as 1000 years[48], 2000 years pass from Adam to Abraham and 2000 years pass from Abraham to the Son. That is, when Adam was created and the Son came to this earth, about 4000 years have passed since Adam. The Son came at the end of the 4th day.
② Day 2 (the 5th day after Adam was created): The Word being baptized.
Gen.1:6 God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."
Gen.1:7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse, and it was so.
Gen.1:8 God called the expanse sky. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
† God made the expanse between the waters. The expanse[49] and the waters under the expanse[50] are realm where our enemies work.
John1:29 On the next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
† The Son was baptized on the 2nd day. He was baptized with water by John, and on the cross He was baptized with fire, like burning on the altar of burnt offering. When the Son was baptized by water, God the Holy Spirit came like a dove, and when He was baptized by fire, He took away the sins of the world and was forsaken by His Father.
Mark10:38 But Jesus said to them, "You don't know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"
† The forsaken of the cross is also baptism.
Luke12:50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
† The Son was baptized by God the Holy Spirit and baptized by fire. He was baptized by fire on the cross and forsaken by His Father.
Gen.1:20 God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of sky."
Gen.1:21 God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.
Gen.1:22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."
Gen.1:23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
† God placed fish in the waters under the expanse, and birds in the expanse. The birds of the expanse[51] and the fish in the waters symbolize the power of Satan[52], the prince of this world[53] who has taken power in the air.[54] In the sea under the expanse are Leviathan the gliding and coiling serpent. God will slay the tanneen of the sea.[55]
③ Day 3 (the 6th day after Adam was created): The Word judging the enemy.
Gen.1:9 God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear," and it was so.
Gen.1:10 God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters he called Seas. God saw that it was good.
Gen.1:11 God said, "Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with its seed in it, on the earth," and it was so.
Gen.1:12 The earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with its seed in it, after their kind: and God saw that it was good.
Gen.1:13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
† God separated the earth from the waters in which the enemies were active, and brought forth fruits from the earth. The waters are the world, the realm of sin[56], and the place where the enemies reign.[57] Those who overcome the enemy and are freed from sin are represented by plants bearing fruit on the ground. The seed is the word of God.[58] Only those who have the word of God produce the fruit that God accepts.[59] The fruit that God accepts is the fruit of God the Holy Spirit[60] and can only be produced when we are in the Son.[61]
† In the days of Moses, God parted the waters of the Red Sea[62], and in the days of Joshua, God parted the waters of Jordan[63], and dry land was revealed. The LORD Jesus also treaded on the water of the sea of Galilee.[64] The parting and treading of the sea symbolizes treading on the forces of Satan in the sea. The revealing of the earth from the sea means the coming forth of fruits with seeds which are the word. It means that the images of God with the word come forth.[65] When the images of God who receive the word and keep the commandments appear, the lies of Satan fraudswarms who ran wild in the sea, are revealed and judgment is confirmed.[66] Just as the sea raises a great wave[67], Satan claims lies. But God's evidence is clear and God rules His creation world with His everlasting word. Therefore, the coming forth of seed-bearing fruit from the dry land means the crushing of Satan's power in the sea, that is, his head.
John2:1 The third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. Jesus' mother was there.
John2:7 Jesus said to them, "Fill the water pots with water." They filled them up to the brim.
John2:8 He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the ruler of the feast." They took it.
John2:9 When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and didn't know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom,
† There is no wine at the feast where there must be wine. There is no life of God in the creation world where the life of God must exist. Without wine, a wedding banquet cannot be successful. The wedding feast is the wedding between the Son and His bride which will take place when the Son returns.[68] The Son is the Bridegroom and the new Jerusalem is the bride.[69] Only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life enter the new Jerusalem.[70] Only those who overcome are written in the Lamb's book of life.[71] Therefore, there must be wine in order for the wedding of the Son and the overcomers to take place.
† The wine is the blood of the Son[72], and is God the Holy Spirit.[73] The new covenant is confirmed by the blood of the Son.[74] Through the cross on which the blood of the Son was shed, the creatures come to know God's love[75] and enter into God's life.[76] Witnesses to prove the truthfulness of God's commandments come[77] and the wedding feast takes place. Those who have received forgiveness of sins through the blood of the Son, enter the new covenant through God the Holy Spirit.[78] Those who are in the new covenant, overcome sin by being governed by the law of life of God the Holy Spirit.[79] These are the witnesses who prove the justice of judging Satan and prepare the way for the Son to judge Satan. Therefore, God establishes witnesses through the blood of the Son and God the Holy Spirit to judge Satan.
† A stone jar is filled with purifying water. Water is the word.[80] The stone jar filled with the word and purifies, is the Son who came as a man.[81] Just as the 10 commandments are engraved on stone, so the word is engraved on the Son.[82] On the 3rd day after the Son was resurrected[83], the judgment of the enemy is confirmed and the life of God is filled in the creation world. Therefore, the event of turning the purifying water in the stone jars into wine at the wedding banquet shows that the Son, the Word, is determined to restore the rest of His creation world by taking the cross. When the Son forgives the sins of the saints with His blood of the cross, the new covenant is confirmed and God the Holy Spirit comes upon the saints. Witnesses who receive God the Holy Spirit become the bride of the Son. If the sin of Satan, the enemy of the bride[84], is exposed through the bride, the Son will come again to judge Satan fraudswarms, and finally, the wedding between the Son and the bride will take place and the rest will be completed in the creation world.
† For those who follow the Son who is the Word, the Son writes His word in them through God the Holy Spirit.[85] When the water of obedience to the word is filled in the stone jars for purification, the water becomes wine. When we obey the word placed within us, God the Holy Spirit takes over us and fills us with the life of God.
† There are 6 stone jars for purifying water.[86] The event that water turns into wine when the water in the 6 jars is filled, foreshadows the creation world being purified with the blood of the Son when 1000 years have passed 6 times since the creation of Adam.[87] After 6000 years have passed since the creation of Adam, the Son will come again to judge those who do not obey Him, and fulfill the rest from the 7th 1000-year onward. The rest of the 7th day will be fulfilled.[88]
John4:17 The woman answered, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You said well, 'I have no husband,'
John4:18 for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly."
† For this woman, 5 husbands and 1 non-husband, 6 men, could not be true husbands. Just as Eve could not be Adam's true bride and Adam could not be Eve's true husband, so adam defiled by sin cannot be the true bridegroom of sinful bride. The only one who can be the true bridegroom of the imperfect Adam who still has to do with sin, is the pure seed, the Word, the Last Adam.
† The woman has now met the true groom. The 6 false husbands that the woman passed through, symbolize Satan who has acted as a violent husband to Adam under sin for 6000 years since the 1st Adam. Now that 2022 has come, we are approaching the end of 6000 years. As the beginning of the 7th 1000-year draws near, the Son, the true Bridegroom of humans, will soon come. Only true brides with fidelity[89] who are awake to welcome the Son who is to come[90], will be able to participate in the wedding feast with the Son.[91]

God commands Adam not to eat the fruit of good and evil, and immediately after that, He makes a helper meet for Adam.[99] This is because it was not good to be alone in order to protect the garden of Eden from sin and to rule it according to God's will. God created suitable candidates for Adam and led them to Adam[100] to fight with Adam against the enemy so that Adam could overcome the test of fruit of good and evil and protect the garden of Eden.[101] But among the beasts and birds, Adam could not find a helper for him. God caused Adam to fall into a deep sleep, die, so He formed Eve from the rib that was taken out of Adam's side and led her to Adam. Adam rejoices greatly in Eve, and regards Eve as bone of his bones and flesh of his flesh, and makes her as his helper.
Adam should not have chosen a woman as his helper. Adam should have chosen God as his helper. If that had been the case, Adam would not have eaten the forbidden fruit. However, this may be the right choice for Adam as an individual, but it is an imperfect idea when considering God's decree to eliminate the possibility of transgression in the whole creation world. If Adam had chosen God as his helper, Adam would have passed the situation without becoming a slave to sin. However, since Adam's understanding of God's love and justice is still uncertain, Adam's state that the possibility to sin still remains, does not change, so there is no guarantee that Adam will not sin if he stands before the fruit of good and evil again. God knew Adam would sin before He created Adam. God uses Adam's fall to expose the evil of sin, to condemn Satan, and to keep other creatures from choosing sin forever.
If Adam had been a creature who would not eat the fruit, God would not have put Adam to the test of the fruit of good and evil and would have proved God's love and justice in another way. (This is impossible and is merely an assumption for the sake of explanation, since there is no creature that has been granted free will, that will never sin before knowing God's love and justice through the cross.[102]) If Adam had been a creature who would not eat the fruit of good and evil, Adam's free will could have been perfected without pain, just like the angels who overcame Satan's deception. And the process of completing the creation world would have been different than it is now. Of course, if God who already knew all the choices of each creature, would have made another man who would eat the fruit of good and evil as the 1st Adam instead of the victorious Adam, it would not have been much different from now.
In other words, if Adam had not eaten the fruit of good and evil by choosing to forsake his dead wife and submit to God, it would have been the right choice for Adam as an individual. But if Adam would have made such a choice, God would have decreed a different method than now to complete His creatures before He began to create the creation world. Before the beginning of creation[103], God predestined to perfect the free will of His creatures by making them understand[104] His love and justice.[105] God proves His love by suffering death on behalf of Adam who ate the forbidden fruit, and proves the truthfulness of the commandments by being clothed with a cursed body with the sinful desires and obeying His Father even to death. Creatures who realize God's love and justice, come to love God without any doubts and be perfected as creatures that does not sin.[106] This plan of God proceeds and appears after Adam eats the fruit of good and evil in space-time. It does not mean that it is right for Adam to eat the fruit of good and evil, but it does mean that God began to create after God knew in advance that Adam would eat the forbidden fruit and decided to be crucified as Adam.[107] Long before the creation of humans[108], God ordained the cross as a way to complete creation.[109] In space-time of the creation world, the fall of Adam, the atonement of the cross, the victory of the church, and the completion of creation proceed in sequence. However, I believe that God who made time and is not limited by it[110], already knew every choices of His creatures before the beginning of creation, and is seeing the consequences in eternity.
It seems that Adam died and was driven out of Eden because of the woman, and eventually perished. But the 1st Adam is the pattern of the Last Adam to come.[111] God revealed Adam's sin through the woman, and the Son came as the Last Adam to overcome sin and to allow the creatures to overcome sin. Adam's sin represents the possibility of departing from God, hidden in the depths of the hearts of all creatures granted free will, not just Adam alone. Although God revealed the hidden sin of His creatures through Adam, the unfallen angels still have the possibility to leave God as well by loving others more than God, like Adam. Had the angels not been able to fall, Satan fraudswarms would not have fallen either. And when we see that God is trying to prove God's love and justice to the angels through Adam, the angels still have doubts about God. The possibility to sin still remains in the unfallen angels.[112]
If there is no creature that will never sin, that is, if there is absolutely no creature that can love God in the first place, then is Satan's claim that the commandments cannot be kept, correct? It can never be. God decreed the cross so that His creatures who are granted free will by God, would never sin.[113] Creatures who have accepted the love of the cross, never sin and can always keep the commandments. God made His creatures who had sufficient possibility to sin by giving them free will[114], to understand God's love[115], and by making them love God[116], He makes them into creatures that will never sin.[117] That is the cross.[118]
In order to make a choice, the creatures must first be able to choose not only God's love but also the pleasure of sin. Free will is meaningless if we cannot choose. In order for free will to be meaningful, we must also know that we can choose other things other than loving God. That is why God placed the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden, and keeps Satan alive for a while. Satan deceives and kills humans[119] with the pleasures of sin.[120] The saints choose to know God's love and to love God in the fight against sin. However, for the angels in heaven who have already overcome the test once, even if they do not need to fight sin as hard as humans do, it seems sufficient to complete their free will just by allowing them to see the truthfulness of God's love and His commandments, revealed in the course of the battle between Satan and humans.[121] As God proclaimed in advance[122], the angels will see Humans become the firstfruits who keep the commandments of love[123], and will be completely convinced that Satan's accusations are false and that God is the true One who reigns in righteousness.
God does not prevent humans from choosing the pleasures of sin. God allows humans to voluntarily choose whether it is the pleasure of sin or the love of God. The more we choose the pleasures of sin, the closer we get to sin. The more we accept God's love, the more we love God. After the time of choice has passed and the creatures have made a sure choice so that they can no longer be changed[124], God will respect their choices by dividing them so that those who forsake God will never return to God[125], and those who come to God will never leave God. If God were to change the choices of His creatures that surely decided their own destiny, then God would be interfering with the free will He gave them.[126] If God would do that, He would not judge His creatures. God will perfect the angels who choose to love God to never sin again by seeing the Son on the cross and the bride who proves the truthfulness of the commandments.[127] God will put a spiritual body on those who choose to love God[128] so that they will never sin again.[129]
The 1st Adam is the pattern of the Last Adam which shows what the Last Adam will do when He comes. The 1st Adam did not forsake the woman who died after eating the forbidden fruit, but because he loved her, he ate the fruit that the woman gave and chose to die with the woman. Even the Last Adam did not forsake Israel who ate the forbidden fruit[130] (largely humans[131], and even more angels and humans[132]), but chose to bear the sins of Israel and to be forsaken by His Father in place of Israel, the church, the bride.[133] The Last Adam paid the wages of sin[134] that the bride had to pay for disobeying God and eating the fruit of good and evil, that is, death.[135]
The fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is eaten by the guilty.[136] It does not mean that eating the fruit itself is a sin, but rather that eating the fruit reveals the sin of disobeying God in him/her. Therefore, the creatures whose free will is not perfected because they do not know God's love and justice, will choose to disobey God, so someday they will have no choice but to eat the fruit of good and evil. Thus, through the cross, God makes His creatures come to know God's love and justice[137], and through His love[138], God makes them impossible to disobey God.[139] Nevertheless, there are creatures who reject God's love.[140] Those who refuse to be loved by God, refuse to love God.[141] They reject the reign of the commandments of love.[142] They reject the Son who rules with the commandments.[143] They do not obey the commandments.[144] If God keeps them alive, they will keep trampling their neighbors as long as they live.[145] God is obliged to throw them into the lake of fire. Thus, through the cross, the creatures that will survive and those that will perish are separated.[146] Only those who follow the Son and take up their cross and kill their own greed, can keep the commandments.[147] Only those who receive the Son can take up their cross and follow the Son.[148] Therefore, those who receive the Son who is the life of creatures, survive and remain, and those who reject the Son, are thrown into the lake of fire.[149]
If the Son had not manifested God's love on the cross through being forsaken by His Father in behalf of His creatures[150], the free will of the creatures would not have been perfected unless God had shown His love in some other way.[151] For if God leaves His creatures as they are, with the possibility to sin remaining in them, they will someday sin in the extension of time. Of course, God would have given His creatures enough light[152] so that they would not sin outwardly[153] until God gave them perfect light through the cross to complete their free will.[154] God does not allow temptations[155] beyond what we can bear.[156] Even the 1st Adam whose flesh would later be cursed[157], must have been in enough light[158] to reject the fruit of good and evil.[159] The reason Adam was in the garden of Eden was to protect the garden by rejecting the fruit of good and evil.[160] The purpose Adam was created was to reject the forbidden fruit. God does not force us to keep a law that we cannot keep.[161] Even if Adam himself would not have been able to fight[162] and overcome Satan's deceptions[163], he was able to flee to God.[164]
The completion of free will is possible only with the light of love revealed through the cross.[165] Only those who will love God will be able to love God. Only those who will receive the love of the cross will be able to receive the love of the cross. A creature can love God only when God grants him/her the grace to love God. Creatures can love God only by grace.[166] If a creature loves God, it is because God has given him/her grace[167], and he/she has not rejected that grace.[168] Those who would reject God's love, will reject God's love, so even if God shows them His love through the cross, they will not accept God's love.[169] God does not force those who would not love God, to love God by forcing them to receive His grace to love God.[170] A creature can sin whenever he/she wants to sin.
Even if a creature is allowed to sin with his/her free will, if God placed the creature in a situation where he/she can never choose to sin, it would not be said that God gave him/her free will. Free will is only meaningful in situations where sin is possible.[171] Not choosing to sin in a situation where we can sin, is really keeping the commandments. God makes His creatures come to know God's love[172], so that they can love God[173], and complete them as creatures that cannot sin under any circumstances.[174] However, if God made creatures in a state in which they can never sin from the beginning, it would not be possible to say that God gave His creatures free will. Through the love of the cross, God will make His creatures who have sufficient potential to sin, into creatures who love God and never sin.[175] Accordingly, God's creation is still in progress.[176]
Therefore, if God allows time to pass without perfecting the free will of the creatures, it may be necessary to destroy His creatures who are granted free will and the entire creation world in which they live. If God had determined to do so and began to create, it could have been. But that cannot be, because God began the creation with the will to perfect the free will of His creatures through His love. The God who made time[177], is not limited by time[178] and is already at the end of the completed creation.[179] Therefore, the cross, in which the Son bore the curse that Adam should have borne, and was forsaken by His Father, is God's will to sustain the entire creation world forever.[180] Creation world can only exist in the Creator.[181] Because God gave creatures free will and allowed them to rebel against their Creator, the creatures can be judged and destroyed.[182] Therefore, in order for creatures to live forever, they must be in the Son who is the life of His creatures.[183]
Since the Creator began creation with a determination to perfect the free will of His creatures through Adam, God does not forsake Adam. Through the 1st Adam, God foreshadowed the death of the Last Adam. The 1st Adam ate the fruit of good and evil and followed the woman who died eating the forbidden fruit and died. The Last Adam bears the curse that the woman who ate the forbidden fruit should bear, and dies in her place.[184] Either the 1st Adam or the Last Adam died because of a woman. Either the 1st or the Last Adam suffered death, the wages of sin of eating the forbidden fruit. But the 1st Adam died for his own sin, and the Last Adam died for the sins of the 1st Adam, the woman, the bride. The 1st Adam ate the forbidden fruit and died with his bride because he loved her even though she had fallen. Even though Israel has fallen, the Last Adam loves Israel and comes to Israel as the offspring of Israel, the woman. The Last Adam bears the sins of Israel and dies for Israel by Israel. The Last Adam gave birth to true Israel through the blood of the cross.[185] The Last Adam will expose the serpent's lies through His bride Israel, killing the serpent and taking away sins.[186]
The Son bore the sin of His bride and was forsaken for His bride. The creatures who are granted free will, are those who have the potential to eat the forbidden fruit someday, even if they have not eaten the fruit now. Since the groom bore His bride's sin and was forsaken, the bride who comes to know the groom's love, no longer eats the fruit of good and evil. As the 1st Adam died because of his bride, the Last Adam bore the sins of the 1st Adam, His bride, and was forsaken by His Father. When the Last Adam takes His cross, God's love is proved[187], the reality of sin claimed by Satan is revealed[188], and the creatures who are granted free will, turn from their sin and come to God.[189] All creatures who came to know the love of God and obey God, will not eat the fruit of good and evil forever.
Adam chose a woman, the same human being, as the helper meet for him.[190] But Adam should have chosen God as his helper. The woman is not true helper. The Son is the true Helper.[191] God the Holy Spirit is the true Helper.[192] But God used it for the purpose of perfecting the free will of His creatures, knowing in advance that Adam would choose a woman as his helper and fall by the woman.[193] [After God has brought forth all the appointed number of firstfruits, the bride, necessary to prove the truthfulness of the commandments.[194]] Now, the free will of the creatures is perfected by the blood of the Son, and sins are purged from the creation world. The creation is completed. The Son makes the church born of the Son His bride, and becomes the true Helper of the bride, the 1st Adam. The 1st Adam, the church who was reborn from the Last Adam the Bridegroom[195], becomes the bride[196], and helps the Son the Bridegroom as His helper meet for Him[197], and never sins again.[198] Of course, the time when the sin and death of the creation world are annihilated and the creation is completed, is the time of the great white throne judgment when death and Hades are thrown into the lake of fire.[199] However, since those who will participate in the 1st resurrection and stay in new Jerusalem will never sin again. Therefore, from the point of view of the bride, I believe that the creation of the bride has already been completed when the 1000-year kingdom begins.[200]
The 1st Adam should have chosen God as his helper, not Eve. However, the 1st Adam chose Eve as his helper, so he died. The 1st Adam should also have been Eve's true helper.[201] Although the 1st Adam could not be Eve's true helper, the Last Adam becomes the true Helper of the 1st Adam.[202] The 1st Adam who was reborn in the Last Adam[203] through the blood of the Last Adam[204], is now the helper meet for the Last Adam in God the Holy Spirit[205], the true Helper. The 1st Adam the bride becomes the helper meet for the Last Adam the Bridegroom, and helps Him complete His creation by proving the truthfulness of the commandments. The 1st Adam who became a true helper of the Last Adam, has eternal life[206] because he overcame sin[207] through the Last Adam.[208]
There may be a feeling of regret that 'It would have been better if Adam had chosen God as his helper rather than Eve from the beginning'. However, in fact, Adam could not have chosen God as his helper from the beginning without going through Eve. Until he realizes his sin through the law[209], Adam cannot come to the LORD Jesus who redeemed him from his sin through His blood.[210] In this way, Adam who did not realize through the tree of the knowledge that he was already dead, could not proceed to the tree of life. Adam who loved Eve more than God, was already dead.[211] (In a broad sense, all creatures whose free will is not yet perfected are all dead, since they have not yet died, but are bound to die soon. To such creatures, the Son becomes their life, so that they may live forever.[212]) Adam would not have wanted to have God as his helper until his sin was revealed through the tree of the knowledge and until he realized that God, not Eve, is the only life that can overcome the fruit of good and evil. Because Adam saw his sin revealed through the fruit of good and evil[213], Adam realized his weakness to be defeated by the fruit of good and evil, helplessly by his own strength, so that Adam can finally come to the LORD Jesus[214] and come to serve Him as His helper through God the Holy Spirit.[215]
Even if Adam had chosen Eve as his helper, if he had overcome the test of the tree of the knowledge, the situation Adam had to face before his free will was perfected, would not have been as difficult as it is now. God must have ordained another way to perfect Adam's free will, and the way would have been more easier for Adam.[216] But God determined to prove the truthfulness of the commandments through Adam who has the sinful desires rising from his cursed flesh.[217] If Adam had passed the test of the tree of the knowledge, Adam's body would not have been cursed, and keeping the commandments in an uncursed state might not have been enough to prove the truthfulness of the commandments. If that had been the case, perhaps God would have had to prove the truthfulness of the commandments in some other way. However, God began the creation only after He had determined in advance to use the fall of Adam who will not pass the test of the tree of the knowledge, before creation.[218]

Enemies are judged.[233] Rest is fulfilled in the creation world which has been defiled by sin.[234] Creation is completed.[235]

[34] Gen.50:26 So Joseph died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
[35] [View1: 430 years from the Abramic Torch Covenant to the Exodus] Gen.15:13 He said to Abram, "Know for sure that your seed will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them. They will afflict them four hundred years.
Gal.3:16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He doesn't say, "To seeds," as of many, but as of one, "To your seed," which is Christ. Now I say this. A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Christ, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect. = Adam 2523 Exodus
[36] [View2: 430 years from Israel’s entry into Egypt to the Exodus] Ex.12:40 Now the time that the children of Israel lived in Egypt was four hundred thirty years. It happened at the end of four hundred thirty years, even the same day it happened, that all the hosts of Yahweh went out from the land of Egypt. = Adam 2728 Exodus

[42] Rev.11:2 Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don't measure it, for it has been given to the gentiles. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.

[46] Col.1:16 For by him were all things created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.

Luke8:12 Those by the road are those who hear, then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
[52] Zeph.1:3 I will sweep away man and animal. I will sweep away the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and the heaps of rubble with the wicked.

I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place: the name of the idolatrous and pagan priests,

[68] Rev.19:7 Let us rejoice and be exceedingly glad, and let us give the glory to him. For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready." It was given to her that she would array herself in bright, pure, fine linen: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. He said to me, "Write, 'Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.'" He said to me, "These are true words of God."
[69] Rev.21:2 I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband.

[73] John6:54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

John4:14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life."
John7:37 Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink! He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water." But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified.
[74] Heb.9:15 For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. For where a last will and testament is, there must of necessity be the death of him who made it. For a will is in force where there has been death, for it is never in force while he who made it lives. Therefore even the first covenant has not been dedicated without blood. For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God commanded toward you." Moreover he sprinkled the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry in like manner with the blood. According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.
[75] Rom.5:8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
[76] Col.1:20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross. Through him, I say, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens.

Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
[79] Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death. For what the law couldn't do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh; that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
[80] Eph.5:26 that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,
Deut.32:2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain; My speech shall condense as the dew, As the small rain on the tender grass, As the showers on the herb.
Is.55:10 For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and doesn't return there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater; so shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Ezek.36:25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

John3:5 Jesus answered, "Most assuredly I tell you, unless one is born of water and spirit, he can't enter into the Kingdom of God!
1Cor.3:6 I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase. So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.
Heb.6:7 For the land which has drunk the rain that comes often on it, and brings forth a crop suitable for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receives blessing from God;
[81] Rom.9:32 Why? Because they didn't seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone; even as it is written, "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; And no one who believes in him will be put to shame."
1Pet.2:4 coming to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious. You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Because it is contained in Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious: He who believes in him will not be put to shame." For you therefore who believe is the honor, but for such as are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected, Has become the chief cornerstone," and, "A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense." For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, whereunto also they were appointed.
[82] John1:14 The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
1John1:1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life (and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us);
[83] Mark8:31 He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
[84] Gen.3:15 I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel."
[85] 2Cor.3:3 being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh.
[86] John2:6 Now there were six water pots of stone set there after the Jews' manner of purifying, containing two or three metretes apiece.
[87] Lev.16:14 He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times. "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat: and he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting, that dwells with them in the midst of their uncleanness. There shall be no one in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel. "He shall go out to the altar that is before Yahweh and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull's blood, and some of the goat's blood, and put it on the horns of the altar round about. He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
Heb.9:22 According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission. It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Col.1:20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross. Through him, I say, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens.
[88] Gen.2:2 On the seventh day God finished his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
[89] Rev.14:4 These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb. In their mouth was found no lie, for they are blameless.
[90] Matt.25:10 While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.
[91] Rev.19:7 Let us rejoice and be exceedingly glad, and let us give the glory to him. For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready." It was given to her that she would array herself in bright, pure, fine linen: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

[96] John19:34 However one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
[97] Eph.5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;
[98] Song6:10 Who is she who looks forth as the morning, Beautiful as the moon, Clear as the sun, Awesome as an army with banners?

[100] Gen.2:18 Yahweh God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him." Out of the ground Yahweh God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.
[101] Gen.2:15 Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

[103] 1Cor.2:7 But we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds to our glory, which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn't have crucified the Lord of glory.
[104] Eph.3:9 and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ; to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord;
[105] 1John3:1 Behold, how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn't know us, because it didn't know him.
[106] 1John4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
[107] 1Pet.1:19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, the blood of Christ; who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed at the end of times for your sake,
[108] Rev.13:8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
[109] Eph.1:4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without blemish before him in love; having predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire, to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely bestowed favor on us in the Beloved,

[117] Rom.6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
[118] Rom.6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer? Or don't you know that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him through baptism to death, that just like Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
[119] John10:10 The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
[120] Prov.9:16 "Whoever is simple, let him turn in here." As for him who is void of understanding, she says to him, "Stolen water is sweet. Food eaten in secret is pleasant." But he doesn't know that the dead are there, That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

[129] Luke20:35 But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. For neither can they die any more, for they are like the angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
[130] Rom.11:25 For I don't desire, brothers, to have you ignorant of this mystery, so that you won't be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in, and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, "There will come out of Zion the Deliverer, And he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob. This is my covenant to them, When I will take away their sins."
[131] Hos.11:7 My people are determined to turn from me. Though they call to the Most High, He certainly won't exalt them. "How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, My compassion is aroused. I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim: For I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of you; And I will not come in wrath.
[132] Eph.3:9 and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ; to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord;
[133] Matt.26:53 Or do you think that I can't ask my Father, and he would even now send me more than twelve legions of angels? How then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that it must be so?"
[134] Is.53:4 Surely he has borne our infirmities, and carried our diseases; yet we esteemed him stricken, struck by God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was on him; and with his stripes we are healed.
[135] Rom.6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[136] Gen.2:25 They were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Rev.3:17 Because you say, 'I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing;' and don't know that you are the wretched one, miserable, poor, blind, and naked; I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may become rich; and white garments, that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see.
Is.59:6 Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
[137] Rom.5:8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
[138] Col.1:20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross. Through him, I say, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens.
[139] 2Cor.5:14 For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died. He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.
[140] Luke20:13 The lord of the vineyard said, 'What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.' "But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.' They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
[141] Matt.23:37 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her! How often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and you would not!
[142] Rom.13:10 Love doesn't harm a neighbor. Love therefore is the fulfillment of the law.

[144] Jer.25:4 Yahweh has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, (but you have not listened, nor inclined your ear to hear,) saying, Return you now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that Yahweh has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forevermore; and don't go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and don't provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; and I will do you no harm.
[145] Eccles.5:8 If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of justice and righteousness in a district, don't marvel at the matter: for one official is eyed by a higher one; and there are officials over them.
[146] John3:17 For God didn't send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him. He who believes in him is not judged. He who doesn't believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only born Son of God. This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the light, and doesn't come to the light, lest his works would be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God."
[147] Luke9:23 He said to all, "If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same will save it.
[148] John8:12 Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life." The Pharisees therefore said to him, "You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid." Jesus answered them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you don't know where I came from, or where I am going.
[149] John3:35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand. One who believes in the Son has eternal life, but one who disobeys the Son won't see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.”
[150] Rom.5:8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
[151] 1John4:9 By this was God's love revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
[152] Is.6:2 Above him stood the seraphim. Each one had six wings. With two he covered his face. With two he covered his feet. With two he flew. One called to another, and said, "Holy, holy, holy, is Yahweh of Hosts! The whole earth is full of his glory!"
[153] Heb.11:33 who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, grew mighty in war, and turned to flight armies of aliens. Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment. They were stoned. They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. They went around in sheepskins, in goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated
[154] Heb.6:4 For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for themselves again, and put him to open shame.
2Pet.2:4 For if God didn't spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to pits of darkness, to be reserved to judgment;
[155] Matt.10:29 "Aren't two sparrows sold for an assarion? Not one of them falls on the ground apart from your Father's will,
[156] 1Cor.10:13 No temptation has taken you but such as man can bear. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
[157] Gen.3:17 To Adam he said, "Because you have listened to your wife's voice, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground for your sake. In toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. Thorns also and thistles will it bring forth to you; and you will eat the herb of the field.
[158] Gen.3:8 They heard the voice of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden.
[159] Gen.2:15 Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat: but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it: for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die."
[160] Luke4:5 The devil, leading him up on a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. The devil said to him, "I will give you all this authority, and their glory, for it has been delivered to me; and I give it to whomever I want. If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours."
[161] 1John5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
1Tim.1:9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;
[162] Job1:9 Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? Haven't you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face." Yahweh said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power. Only on himself don't put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of Yahweh.
[163] Luke4:8 Jesus answered him, "Get behind me Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.'"
[164] Is.37:1 It happened, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he tore his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of Yahweh. He sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz. They said to him, Thus says Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of rejection; for the children have come to the birth, and there is no strength to bring forth. It may be Yahweh your God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to defy the living God, and will rebuke the words which Yahweh your God has heard. Therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.

[166] Gen.20:4 Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, "Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation? Didn't he tell me, 'She is my sister?' She, even she herself said, 'He is my brother.' In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands have I done this." God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I didn't allow you to touch her.
[167] Eph.2:8 for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast.
[168] 2Cor.6:1 Working together, we entreat also that you not receive the grace of God in vain,
1Cor.15:10 But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace which was bestowed on me was not futile, but I worked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
[169] Mark15:31 Likewise, also the chief priests mocking among themselves with the scribes said, "He saved others. He can't save himself. Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe him." Those who were crucified with him reproached him. When the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is, being interpreted, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, "Behold, he calls Elijah."
[170] Rom.1:28 Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
[171] 2Thess.2:9 even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn't receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Because of this, God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie; that they all might be judged who didn't believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
[172] Rom.5:8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

1John5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
[175] 2Cor.5:14 For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died. He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.
[176] Rev.21:4 He will wipe away from them every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more. The first things have passed away.

[177] Rom.8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[178] Is.46:10 declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not [yet] done; saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure;

[180] Col.1:20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross. Through him, I say, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens.
[181] Acts17:27 that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 'For in him we live, and move, and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also his offspring.'
Heb.1:3 His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification for our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
Col.3:11 where there can't be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all.
[182] Ezek.18:30 Therefore I will judge you, house of Israel, everyone according to his ways, says the Lord Yahweh. Return you, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, in which you have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you die, house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies, says the Lord Yahweh: therefore turn yourselves, and live.
[183] John5:26 For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.
1John5:12 He who has the Son has the life. He who doesn't have God's Son doesn't have the life.
[184] Matt.27:46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" That is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
Gal.3:13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,"
[185] Acts20:28 Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of the Lord and God which he purchased with his own blood.

"But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.' They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
[189] 1John3:1 Behold, how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn't know us, because it didn't know him.
[190] Gen.2:18 Yahweh God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him."
Gen.2:21 Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. He made the rib, which Yahweh God had taken from the man, into a woman, and brought her to the man. The man said, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man." Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.
[191] 1John2:1 My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous.
[192] John14:16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever, --

They cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" A long white robe was given them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, completed their course.
[195] John3:3 Jesus answered him, "Most assuredly, I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can't see the Kingdom of God."
[196] Eph.5:31 "For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will be joined to his wife. The two will become one flesh." This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and of the assembly.
[197] Gen.2:20 The man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper suitable for him.
Rev.20:5 The rest of the dead didn't live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him one thousand years.
[198] Luke20:35 But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. For neither can they die any more, for they are like the angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
[199] Rev.20:14 Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.
[200] Rev.19:7 Let us rejoice and be exceedingly glad, and let us give the glory to him. For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready." It was given to her that she would array herself in bright, pure, fine linen: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
[201] Gen.3:11 God said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?" The man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate."
[202] Eph.5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;
[203] 1Cor.15:45 So also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living soul." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
[204] Heb.9:13 For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness of the flesh: how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
[205] John3:3 Jesus answered him, "Most assuredly, I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can't see the Kingdom of God." Nicodemus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born?" Jesus answered, "Most assuredly I tell you, unless one is born of water and spirit, he can't enter into the Kingdom of God!
[206] John8:51 Most assuredly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death."

[208] Gal.5:18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
[209] Rom.3:19 Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God. Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight. For through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
[210] Gal.3:24 So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
[211] Gen.2:25 They were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Rev.3:17 Because you say, 'I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing;' and don't know that you are the wretched one, miserable, poor, blind, and naked; I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may become rich; and white garments, that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see.
[212] 1John5:20 We know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
[213] Rom.7:22 For I delight in God's law after the inward man, but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
[214] Acts2:37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Brothers, what shall we do?" Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized, everyone of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

[216] Lev.26:14 But if you will not listen to me, and will not do all these commandments; and if you shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhor my ordinances, so that you will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant; I also will do this to you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. I will set my face against you, and you shall be struck before your enemies: those who hate you shall rule over you; and you shall flee when none pursues you. If you will not yet for these things listen to me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins.
[217] Gen.3:17 To Adam he said, "Because you have listened to your wife's voice, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground for your sake. In toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. Thorns also and thistles will it bring forth to you; and you will eat the herb of the field.
Rom.7:22 For I delight in God's law after the inward man, but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
[218] Eph.1:4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without blemish before him in love; having predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,
1Pet.1:19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, the blood of Christ; who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed at the end of times for your sake,
Rev.13:8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.

[223] Eph.2:2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the powers of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience;
[224] Eph.6:12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
[225] Rom.8:19 For the creation waits with eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now. Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.
[226] Gen.2:1 The heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. On the seventh day God finished his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
[227] Eph.2:1 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the powers of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience; among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
[228] Ps.49:20 A man who has riches without understanding, Is like the animals that perish. A Psalm by Asaph.
