Always remember, God has a plan and purpose for life and when that purpose in that Plan is completed that believer is finished and there is NO WAY for any believer to survive the Plan of God for our death. Having a “terminal” disease is meaningless and IF God wants the believer’s life prolonged, maybe he does and maybe not, then He can, from his Essence and Sovereignty perform a miracle and keep him alive.
The fact is that every believer lives one day at a time from the courtesy of God. No believer can continue in life apart from Logistical Grace support from God because Satan has the power to cause physical death and would remove the believer 1 instant after his making Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God IF HE WERE PERMITTED TO DO SO BY GOD. (Eph 2:14-15).
However, God, under his Grace Plan, delivers the believer from death on a day by day basis until his purpose is completed in this life. (Job 5:20, Ps 33:19, Ps 56:13) The Sovereign decision of God regarding the believer’s death is based on God’s prior Omniscient knowledge of all the facts from Eternity Past. It is also essential for the believer to remember that Physical death, which is defined as the separation of the soul from the body results in that person no longer living on planet earth. However, Physical Death cannot separate the believer from God because the true person is in the divinely created and provided Soul Life of the individual which is Everlasting once created. (Rom 8:38-39) There are situations in which God can and does prolong life on this earth for His specific purposes. (Ps 102:19-24, Ps 118:18, Prov 14:27)
Satan and Physical Death
Satan does NOT have the authority to produce physical death for anyone. However, it is true that Satan administers physical death at times under the Sovereign Permission of God for
special Divine Discipline purposes. (1Cor 5) Satan does have the power of Spiritual Death which he acquired at the point the fall of man in the garden. Satan being the ‘Sovereign’ of Spiritual Death refers to the dominion of those who are spiritually dead and under the Plan and Power Systems of Satan. Since the Fall of Adam in the Garden, all members of the Human Race are born physically alive and spiritually dead. Therefore, through physical birth man enters into the kingdom of Satan a kingdom of spiritual Death. As Sovereign of Spiritual Death, Satan has and holds the Ruling Power of spiritual death and has had this from the fall of man and will continue to have it until at the 2nd advent of The Lord Jesus, The Christ. At that point The Lord Jesus, The Christ, as a Human Being having a Resurrection Body and thus being infinitely superior to all angelic creatures, will perform a Coup De Tat and supersede Satan as ruler of this world and forever remove this power from Satan. Therefore, as part of Phase II of the Plan of God in the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial, Satan holds man in his power from his very birth by means of Spiritual Death as a Jailer holding a prisoner until man makes a personal decision to accept the true legal release provided by the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ for his personal sins.
Physical Death in the Human Race
The believer should be constantly reminded that physical life hangs by a very fine thread and his continued existence in his life on this earth is strictly because of the Sovereign Grace and Page #88 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Permission from God. However, nothing, including physical death, can separate the believer from the Love of God. (Rom 8:38-39) For the believer who spends his life under the Cosmic Dynasphere system, death is horrible. However, better an end with horror than horror without end. The believer living in the cosmic system very often dies under maximum divine discipline of the sin unto death, (1John 5:16, Rev 3:16) but he cannot and does not lose his Eternal Salvation. Therefore, the only real preparation for the believer’s death is the spiritual life.
God’s Sovereign decision regarding the timing, manner, and place of the believer’s death is related to the whether he has executed the spiritual life and completed his part in the Protocol Plan of God or not. Therefore, as Paul said, Living is Christ and dying is profit, for the winner believer, the one who has reached Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God and achieved the tactical victory in the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial. (Phil 1:21) The death of the believer, as God’s Sovereign decision, glorifies God and at the same time brings the greatest blessing in life to the one who has reached Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God.
The death of the believer is a Sovereign decision of God and is backed up by His perfect
Righteousness, Justice and Love and therefore the death of any believer who has functioned in his life under Positive Volition toward God and the Word of God, is neither unfair, unjust nor uncomfortable except when that believer is under the Charlie Grace of Divine Discipline because of reversionistic involvement. However, Eternal or Everlasting Life WITH GOD is the end for all believers no matter what kind of life they have lived on earth and they will spend eternity with God after their death. The trinity is Omnipresent and the believer as Royal Family of God NEVER dies alone, ever, and They are always with each and every believer at the end of his life. (Ps 23:4) Based on the Veracity of God, those who are under consistent Positive Volition toward Bible Doctrine will always have certain common characteristics which will exist in their death and therefore the believer should have no more concern about death than he should have about anything else in life. The Believer is commanded to not worry about anything in life and his death is part of life and it may be tomorrow or a long way in the future. He is in a perfect plan and under Logistical Grace support provided by God which will culminate in a perfect and wonderful end.
Therefore, there is no excuse for any believer ever having to be afraid of dying, regardless of how he dies, as long as he has consistently used the Spiritual Skills during his life. Fear is an emotional sin reflecting the believer’s failure to use the Spiritual Skills. The fear principle explains the dying Divine Discipline of the Sin Unto Death. (1John 5:16) Because of failure to execute the Protocol Plan of God there is the function of worry and anxiety in living which then results in the function of fear in dying. This is a sin believers commit while taking the journey through their very own death shadowed valley (Ps 23:4), fear, reaction to the fact of dying even bitterness regarding the end of life. (Ps 56:3-4) If the believer has followed the pattern of Christian Apostasy and Christian Degeneracy, dying WILL BE the most miserable experience of his miserable life. And that would be the implosion (self-fragmentation), explosion (polarized fragmentation), resulting from entanglement in the Interlocking System of Arrogance (Christian Degeneracy) and Reversionism (Christian Apostasy) inevitably leading to the destructive opposition of the Interlocking System of Antagonistic Page #89 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Emotional Hatred. During the living phase of the Christian life the believer has options.
Options to learn doctrine and to apply it or NOT! Options to understand the mechanics of the 10 Problem Solving Devices and use them or NOT! As a result of choosing to exercise these options then the greatest experience that he will ever have on this earth is going to be the experience of dying. Because God has provided so wonderfully for the believer’s life in time when he has responded, he will be able to handle the greatest of all pressures of his life in dying. One of the greatest parts of dying, which causes it to be so fantastic, is that it is a surprise, as it were, because it comes to us totally apart from our own volition.
Technically speaking dying must be distinguished from the moment of death. Dying can be
short or prolonged, painless or painful, enjoyable or miserable. From the very moment the believer begins to die, he is totally in the hands of the Sovereignty of God. The volition of the believer may coexist with the Sovereignty of God while living, but once he begins to die, the function of his volition ends and his dying falls to the Sovereignty of God. In the living stages of the protocol plan of God, the believer through the use of his own volition, has control over his life for success or failure in the execution of God’s plan. This means that while the believer has control over his life to become a winner or a loser in the protocol plan, he has no control over the time, place, or manner of his death. How well the believer accepts the Sovereign decision of God for his death depends entirely on his spiritual status quo. The only real preparation for dying is spiritual preparation, which means the execution of the protocol plan of God, becoming an invisible hero, and thereby glorifying God. All invisible heroes die well, because their dying is profit to them. (Phil 1:20-21) This profit for the dying believer is based on his successful and total use of every aspect of the Faith Rest Drill (5 Stages).
Handling properly physical death for the believer is a matter use of two Problem Solving
Devices:
• Grace Orientation
• Doctrinal Orientation
God knew in eternity past exactly when one would be born and exactly when he should die.
God very often does not stop a suicide because the free will of man and Sovereignty of God coexist in human history based on the Divine Decree. However, in every case the death of every believer is always a matter of God’s Grace. Since God has eternal, personal love for each and every believer, it is impossible for God to do anything incompatible with His perfect love for the believer. Therefore, the believer has no right to question the wisdom or justice of God, when someone he loves dies. (1Thes 4:13-18) What the righteousness of God demands for the time, manner and place of one’s death, the justice of God MUST execute for both the spiritual and carnal believer. Apart from the Rapture generation, ALL believers will experience physical death and should have comfort in dying, knowing that God has saved the best for
them until last. The mature believer is not afraid of death but the reversionistic believer is fears death above all else. Living and dying are part of the same package of the Spiritual Life which is recognized by the Mature believer. It is the FEAR of the carnal believer which
distorts his dying into a horrible experience. Dying is profit for both the spiritual and carnal believer because both are absent from the body and face-to-face with the Lord and there is no distinction in heaven between them after death. They are both possess an interim body with Page #90 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
great happiness. (Heb 9:27) The fact is that the believer cannot ever have a true idea of the perfect happiness that will come to him when he checks out of these corrupted bodies. What is known is that it will be a state of perfect happiness because everything related to the human body that can produce pain is gone and the Old Sin Nature is destroyed with the body. (Rev
21:4) However, when the unbeliever approaches the grave, it is a time of no hope, a time of death and separation and the end of everything even remotely pleasant in life. (1Thes 4:13-18) Therefore, IF one lives as an invisible hero, as a believer who has reached and maintained Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God using the Spiritual Skills, who enjoys his Escrow Super – Grace blessings for time, he is in fact enjoying the most fantastic six-course dinner spiritually. However, the dessert of dying, for him, is so fantastic and such a great surprise because it is manufactured by the Sovereignty of God totally apart from the Christian’s personal volition.
Grace is part of Dying for both the winner and loser believer, the spiritual believer and the carnal believer. That is based on the Integrity of God as God’s victory in Death for the believer. The difference is that the believer in Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God under his Escrow Super – Grace blessing of Dying Grace goes through the death-shadowed valley with maximum blessing, whereas the carnal believer, having not acquired his Escrow Super – Grace blessings for time, creates his own misery primarily through some aspect of Mental Attitude Arrogance during his dying. The “season” for one’s death is not determined by age or human volition but by the Sovereignty of God. “Stacking of grain” is analogous to one’s soul and spirit departing from his body of corruption in physical death and transferring to heaven. Since God stacks the grain at the right time, when it has sufficiently ripened, one’s death is God’s victory. This is whether it occurs on a battlefield or in bed, whether in youth or old age, whether in perfect health or under a prolonged degenerative disease, death is always God’s call and His Victory. Thus as Paul indicated in Phil 1:20-21, The Lord Jesus, The Christ will be glorified in the body of the dying mature believer because it is the BODY which dies and the Human Spirit and Soul which goes to be with Him. For the mature believer “dying is profit, because every believer gains infinitely more in eternity than the wealthiest, most powerful, most privileged person who has ever lived. (Rev 21:4) Suicide
Even Believers who attempt to commit suicide cannot die without the Sovereign Decision of
God. There are No Exceptions, because precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints, Church Age believers. Suicide infers that this person has run out of choices and uses volition to make one last choice taking his own life apart from the Plan of God. However, the Plan of God is His Plan and depends totally on Him and not ever on man, therefore, Suicide is total entanglement in the Arrogance Complex under Legalism and still requires approval from the Righteousness of God to be successful.
Sovereignty & The Free Will of Man and Angels
As a part of the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial, the Sovereignty of God and the free will of man coexist in human history by divine decree. (Rom 9-11) The Sovereignty of God has selected a Page #91 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
short period of time, called human history, for each individual to exercise his own free will in positive volition toward God’s Will, Plan, and Purpose for mankind. The Sovereignty of God made a decision to create a counterpart to His Sovereignty, a free will in every person for his independent function during human history as a means to resolve the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial. The Angelic Conflict resulted because of choices or decisions of Angelic Creatures to oppose the Sovereign Will of God in Eternity Past. Under his Creation plan God chose to provide both volition and freedom to two categories of rational and responsible creatures: • Angelic creatures beginning in Eternity Past
• Human Beings in human history
Therefore, the Sovereignty of God and the free will of angels coexisted in the prehistoric times of Eternity Past and now the Sovereignty of God and free will of man coexist in human history by Divine Decree. The Sovereignty of God decided to create beings with the power of choice and free will but God rules over these creatures with power, justice, wisdom, and through the mechanics of his Grace Plan. Under this system and based on His Sovereign decisions He has given to both angels and mankind the freedom to reject or accept His plan, and for mankind to reject or accept His offer of restoration to a relationship with him and Eternal Salvation.
The Lord Jesus, The Christ in Eternity Past Sovereignly made the decision to engage in the incarnation of the 1st advent. Then, Jesus Christ had to make a decision from His humanity to submit to the Cross and receive the imputation of, bear the judgment for and render the
payment for the sins of the entire Human Race. In addition, God the Father had to make a
Sovereign decision to impute the billions of sins to Christ on the Cross and then to judge them in him. Now, and throughout all of Human History, man must make a decision regarding
Christ and His Substitutionary Spiritual Death on the Cross for his individual personal sins.
Under positive volition using FAITH ALONE in Jesus Christ the individual receives restoration to a relationship with God and eternal salvation, while under negative volition rejecting the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of Jesus Christ he places himself under eternal condemnation.
(John 3:18, John 3:36) This exemplifies the coexistence of the Sovereignty of God with the Free Will of man in Human History. God under his Grace Plan is obligated to provide information so man can make free will decisions, but He never coerces human free will.
According to 2Pet 3:9, God does not want any human beings to fail and come under eternal condemnation, therefore, the fact that people reject the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of Jesus Christ clearly indicates that human volition is a valid factor the Plan of God and Human
History.
God permits his Sovereignty to coexist with Human Volition and Self Determination and because this is a means of resolving the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial he provides OPTIONS for man’s volition:
• The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden and told man NO!
• The Tree of the Cross of Christ and his Substitutionary Spiritual Death and throughout
Human History tells man YES!
However, he does not ever coerce man’s volition in making these choices as He did not coerce the volition of Angels when it came to choosing the Grace Plan of God vs the Evil Plan of
Page #92 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Satan. Therefore, the Sovereignty of God allows other kinds of free will to exist and function in history and respects the systems of volition which he invented. This is why blaspheming God does not cause immediate physical death. The principles under islam contend that the Sovereignty of God precludes the free will of man and any choice man makes has already been determined by God. This is the means of justifying anything one decides to do by actually blaming it on God. The contention is that IF God's will is truly Sovereign then mans free will must be predetermined, and this is FALSE. The truth is that the Sovereignty of God is true and has foreseen all that man will or could decide to do and has decreed that the decisions of man will be as they will be, fully knowing what they are and their outcomes and their good or bad results. However, they are the decisions of Man and therefore Man must take total responsibility for them. Therefore, the choices of man are truly free and the Sovereignty of God renders these choices certain because He in Eternity Past based on His Omniscience knew what they would be and proclaimed them under his Omnipotence to be what they would be.
Therefore, God SOVEREIGNLY DECREED free will in man as a certainty.
If man does not have free will then what is the purpose of the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ on the cross for man’s sins in the first place. If man’s decisions are not free how could they put him out of the Will of God and Plan of God by SIN. Man is NOT impeccable but is able not to sin from his own decisions while still being susceptible to temptation. However, despite man’s choices against God’s Sovereign Will, His Will always comes to fruition in Human History, whether man decides to enter into or to stay in the Plan of God or reject it or leave the Plan of God. Therefore, the Plan of God moves forward despite, but inclusive of, the choices of mankind and the point of Grace is that man can ride along with the plan and benefit from it or reject and oppose the plan and suffer as a result of his every own personal decision. The fact of Human History and the Christian Way of Life is that the choices one makes are not predetermined but they were KNOWN AHEAD OF TIME and determined by God to occur as they are decided by each individual human being.
Throughout Human History this coexistence is essential to resolve the Angelic Conflict. At the time of the Exodus of the Jews from Egypt, God did not tamper with the free will of pharaoh but had the genius to use the opposition and Negative Volition of Pharaoh to advance his perfect plan in Human History. As pharaoh’s free will expression of his Negative Volition gathered momentum and continuously increased, God used this momentum of opposition to accomplish his purpose and intention as his efforts on behalf of the enslaved Jews with the presentation of the plagues on Egypt which became know to the entire world. Therefore,
clearly, the only conflict which exists between God and man is when his authority is rejected by man. As an extension of the Angelic Conflict Appeal, the Sovereignty of God chose to make human volition the common denominator of Human History thus all human beings in Human
History are responsible for all of their personal thoughts, motives, decisions and actions.
Therefore there is a concept of reality with regard to the fact that the Sovereignty of God and the freewill of man coexists in human history. This is that the Sovereignty of God may reach down through the Justice of God along with motivation from the Love of God and punish man
based upon man’s violation of the Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of His Absolute
Righteousness, or His Sovereignty can prosper man also based on motivation from the Love of Page #93 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
God through the Justice of God based upon his alignment with these Absolute Righteousness Standards of God; however, He never interferes. Therefore, there are two sources of judgments and disasters in Human History: (Historical Trend #26)
• Sovereign decisions of The Lord Jesus, The Christ
• Erroneous decisions of mankind
In the garden the issue for mankind was to choose between obedience or disobedience to one divine prohibition. That indicates that the free will of man coexisted with the Sovereignty of God at the beginning of the human race on this earth. As a result of disobedience in the garden, now man is born into this world unequal and lives under systems in a society where there is always inequality and unfairness. There are two reasons for this: • Satan as the ruler of this world and gives preferential treatment to his own cosmic
slaves, believers and unbelievers who choose to function exclusively under his Cosmic
Dynasphere System.
• The Sovereignty of God has made free will volition the issue in the Angelic Conflict
Appeal Trial.
These both contribute to the reality of the impossibility of equality in the human race. Volition is the absolute issue in Human History and for volition to function properly there must be freedom. Where freedom does not exist there is still inequality due to the overriding will of tyranny and the inescapable function of volition even in total slavery. Hence, there are two sources of inequality in this world: • Tyranny sponsored by Satan’s Cosmic Dynasphere system.
• Freedom sponsored by the Laws of Divine Establishment under the Divine Dynasphere.
In addition there is physical inequality at birth combined with the quality of opportunity, which means that one fails or succeeds on the basis of his own volitional use of his abilities and opportunities in life. Therefore, human history is the record of man’s volition subordinated to divine Sovereignty versus man’s volition revolting against divine Sovereignty. Therefore, Evangelism is the first issue for man and his subordinating himself to the Sovereignty of God by expressing personal faith in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ OR NOT!
The ‘Civilization Bowl’
There are two coexistent forces which started the ‘CIVILIZATION BOWL’: the essence of man and the Essence of God. God is Sovereign; man has volition; with a positive and a negative pole. These are coexistent forces that began when the ‘civilisation bowl’ began. When God breathed into man the breath of lives, immediately there were two factors coexisting on the earth and they still coexist, the Sovereignty of God and the free will of man. Interestingly, the only place where the Sovereignty of God and the free will of man can meet and be compatible is at the consideration of the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ on the cross. From that point on man enters into Phase II of the Plan of God or Not!
This is the Christian Way of Life whereby the issue is always, ‘Am I doing the Will of God?’
The whole Bible is written so that man, particularly the Christian, might know and understand when he is functioning under the Will of God and when he is not, and when not, how to get
back under it. The Will of God is determined by the Word of God, but the Will of God starts Page #94 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
in 1John 3:23. The doctrines of the Sovereignty of God and the free will of man are wheels that interact but never collide.
The Sovereignty of God bestowed this independent volition on man as a means to DEMONSTRATE the consistency of his total essence for the angelic creation and to resolve the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial. This Volition or free will or Divine Institutions #1 gave man, as it did the angelic creatures, the right to choose for himself even in contradiction to the Will of God. Although God may intervene in angelic and human events, He never coerces the freedom of choice of His creatures. Therefore, He allows each individual to make his own decision concerning the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ, although it is His true desire that all human beings make Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God by faith in Christ and receive eternal salvation. (2Pet 3:9) The Sovereignty of God and in this dispensation of the Church Age, the free will of the believer coexist during Phase II of the Protocol Plan of God for the Church, the Royal Family of God. The fact that the Church Age believer can reject or fail to execute God’s plan or even refuse to do the Will of God is a very clear reason for the existence of homo sapiens in human history. The fall of Satan and his prehistoric revolt which resulted from the use of his volition to oppose God, followed by warfare in heaven and the eventual judgment of all fallen angels, is directly related to the creation of mankind and the beginning of human history. Satan was judged, found guilty and sentenced to the Lake of Fire, he then appealed the sentence, and God under his Grace policy approved the appeal and the sentence was postponed for the insertion of His DEMONSTRATION as human history. In Human History mankind was created to DEMONSTRATE the use of his own God given volition
to resolve the prehistoric angelic conflict by DEMONSTRATING to all angelic creatures that the Essence of God always functions in total coordination whether it is Blessing or Disciplining His Creatures.
Obviously then, creature volition is the issue of creation and particularly of human history. In all fallen angels, angelic volition rejected God and followed Satan. Therefore, in eternity past, the Sovereignty of God and the free will of angels coexisted. Satan had free will and began a revolt against God. “I will be like the Most High God.” (Is 14:12-15) Clearly, the volition of the elect angels was compatible with the Sovereignty of God while the volition of the fallen angels contradicted the Sovereignty of God. The divine judgment against fallen angels sentenced them to the Lake of Fire at the end of the prehistoric angelic conflict. (Matt 25:41) However, as a result of the appeal of Satan and the impugning of the character of God, the sentence will not be carried out until the end of human history. (Rev 20:10) Therefore, the creation of mankind and the entirety of Human History is the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial.
Therefore, as part of the DEMONSTRATION to angelic creatures members of the human race
glorify God by making their volition compatible with the Sovereignty of God. There are two ways in which this is accomplished:
• Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God through faith in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ alone. (1John 3:23)
• Consistent function using the 10 Problem Solving Devices and Motivational Virtue directed toward God and Functional Virtue directed toward mankind.
Page #95 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Sovereignty & Human Responsibility
Divine Sovereignty and human responsibility are not contradictory in human history either.
When mankind fails to function under the Will of God, this is a contradiction toward God and there is the inevitable result under personal responsibility. (John 3:18, John 3:36) God uses human means to accomplish His will and purpose in history, yet such means never involves
coercion. Coercion is the Evil of the function of human beings within the Cosmic Dynaspheres who try to get their way in life and who refuse to take responsibility for their failures.
Therefore, the Sovereignty of God does not minimize nor compromise human responsibility in history. No one can exist independently of the Sovereignty of God because as creator and Sovereign of creation, He keeps every creature alive to reject or to accept His will. The attempt to live independently of God is the quintessence of arrogance and blasphemous insolence. (Ps 14:1, Ps 53:1) In fact, God’s plan is never deterred by human negative volition but while divine Sovereignty remains supreme, man’s responsibility in the use of his free choices is real. The function of mankind under the Divine Policy of Grace in conjunction with human volition and man being held responsible for his volitional choices, remind Satan repeatedly that he, himself, bears the full blame for his own revolt against God and must take full responsibility for it.
Human history as the appeal trial of the angelic conflict clearly reveals the true nature of the Essence of God. He is gracious, but because He is also Sovereign, His plan must go on.
Sovereignty implies that His patience toward mankind in delaying judgment and His kindness in granting opportunity after opportunity to accept His Grace cannot go on indefinitely. This is powerfully illustrated in the 1st advent of Christ, when Christ turned away from unbelieving Israel and founded the Church. Sovereign God must ultimately proceed with His perfect plan.
Satan and his fallen angels and human unbelievers will ultimately suffer the full and eternal consequences of revolution against Sovereign, Omnipotent God, while this same God proceeds to bless believers forever in the eternal state all completely revolving around the use of their own Volition. THIS IS GOD’S DEMONSTRATION! Considering the Sovereignty of God OUTSIDE of the Divine Decree, even though the Sovereignty of God desires for all mankind to be saved this does not mean all people will gain life with him after physical death. It is also the Sovereign Will of God OUTSIDE the Divine Decree that all believers reach Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God but with Negative use of Volition toward the Plan of God on the part of the believer, God will give to him great Divine Discipline and misery in an attempt to show him the error of his ways but if this is a consistent status quo he will end his life under the greatest Divine Discipline of the Sin Unto Death and thus he will never reach Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God. Therefore, it is the Sovereign Will of God to bless all believers but ONLY what is in the decree is what will occur and this depends totally on individual human decisions regarding the Plan of God. (2Pet 3:9, John 7:17, Phil 2:13) The volition of man provides that there are 3 categories of alternatives for him in life: • #1 – Believe in Christ and receive eternal life or reject Christ and receive eternal judgment.
Page #96 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
• #2 – After Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God execute the Plan of God through consistent Post Salvation Epistemological Rehabilitation by Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible Doctrine and have a meaningful life or neglect or
reject intake of Bible Doctrine and be miserable in and never understand life constantly
under self-induced misery from entanglement in Reversionism, the Interlocking System of
Arrogance and the Interlocking System of Antagonistic Emotional Hatred.
• #3 – Die well, possibly under maximum blessing, when God decides from His Sovereignty or die under maximum divine discipline from the sin unto death.
Sovereignty & Phase II
After Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God, there are two stages to the Christian Way of Life:
• The living phase
▪ The Sovereignty of God and the free will of the believer coexist by divine decree
for the purpose of resolving the angelic conflict.
• The dying phase
▪ Strictly a matter of the Sovereignty of God.
During the living phase (the Christian Way of Life under the Protocol Plan of God), the believer has full use of his volition to exercise all options available under God’s plan, will, and purpose for his life. The Sovereignty of God provides everything necessary for the execution of His plan, therefore, the Sovereignty of God has provided for all believers equal privilege and equal opportunity for the execution of the Protocol Plan of God. In this living phase, the believer should constantly use his volition in a positive expression of interest toward Bible doctrine, the revelation of God. Consistent Positive Volition should mean that Bible doctrine becomes the number one priority in his life. Consistent Negative Volition invariably means Bible Doctrine is set aside as an incidental in life and is only a secondary consideration. This choice results in the various pressures, adversities and disasters in life and generates incredible misery. There is therefore, a conflict between positive and negative volition in every believer. Therefore, in the living phase of the Protocol Plan of God, the emphasis is on the believer’s volition in response to Bible doctrine and the status of his life under the Grace policy of God.
Sovereignty and Man’s Objective in Life.
While the Sovereignty of God and free will of man coexist in human history, the objective of the Christian way of life is for the believer’s volition to line up with the Sovereign Will of God as much as possible. This is only possible through the Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of the mystery doctrine of the Church Age. Until the believer has metabolized a saturation of Bible Doctrine into his Right Lobe of the Soul he does not even have a clue as to what the will, plan, and purpose of God for his life really is. Therefore, there is no substitute for the spiritual gift of pastor-teacher, which when properly prepared with a clear understanding of the original languages of Scripture and the historical background of its writing is designed to provide for the believer a clear understanding of the content and intent of the Word of God. There are many divine mandates expressed in the word of God which relate to fulfilling the Sovereign Will of God and to understand clearly these mandates requires the Page #97 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
analysis and presentation of the Bible Doctrine principles contained in them by a properly prepared man with the spiritual gift of Pastor Teacher. It is only by this means in the Church Age that God has revealed His Sovereign will to the believer so that the individual member of the Royal Family of God can actually execute that will, plan, and purpose of God for his individual life.
Contradictions between the believer’s volition and the Sovereign Will of God are always caused by ignorance of Bible doctrine or willful rejection of divine mandates where cognition exists.
This causes the controlling functions of the Old Sin Nature to dominate the soul resulting in spiritual weakness and therefore malfunction of the Problem Solving Devices of the Protocol Plan of God. During the period of the operation of one’s free will, each individual has the opportunity of making many decisions, the most important of which is to accept the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ for his personal sins. After this Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God, the believer has many opportunities to exercise his free will in the fulfillment of the Protocol Plan of God. This is strictly related to Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible doctrine. (Eph 3:19-20) Therefore, ultimately, what happens in history, whether the fall of Satan, the fall of Adam, the rejection of Jesus Christ by Israel, or the final Great White Throne Judgment, is a result of God’s Sovereign choice to make history the way it is based on the results of creature volition reaching its unobstructed result.
The Sovereignty of God is His absolute dominion over all created beings and this means that the plan of God is not thwarted by the believer’s failure. Although the believer decides to fail, the plan of God is not derailed in any way by such failure. In the plan of God, if everyone on the team fails, the team still wins. While man has free will, all things depend on God’s will, and nothing is certain apart from God’s will. Everything desirable in life depends on the Will and Sovereignty of God and this is the reason the believer must learn Bible Doctrine so that his will and volition comes into conformity with the Will of God in a nonmeritorious way. The point is that the free will of man never detracts from the Sovereignty of God under his Grace Plan and Policy. Since it is the Sovereign Will of God that all members of the human race be saved and since as a result of using his own human volition Christ placed himself in a position to be judged on the Cross for the sins of everyone, the exercise of man’s free will is a demonstration of the Grace solution to the angelic conflict. Christ’s strategic victory of his Substitutionary Spiritual Death on the Cross resolved the angelic conflict; man’s consistent positive volition toward Bible Doctrine in phase II of the Christian Way of Life, results in a tactical victory in the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial. Although God wills all mankind to be saved, some are not saved because He honors man’s free will, which gives man the responsibility for acting either in conjunction with or independently of the Will of God.
Sovereignty & Fatalism
There is a false parallel to the concept of the coexistence of the free will of man and the Sovereignty of God which exists for the Human Race in the divine decree. It basically says that the Sovereignty of God precludes the free will of man and any choice one makes has
already been determined by God. This says that if God's will is truly Sovereign then man’s Page #98 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
free will must be predetermined. This is what islam and many other religions say. The truth is that the Sovereignty of God is true and by means of his omniscience God has foreseen all that man will or could do and has Sovereignly Decreed that the decisions of man will be as they will be knowing what they are and their outcomes and their good or bad results.
Therefore, the choices of man are truly free and the Sovereignty of God renders these choices certain as he in omniscience knows what they would be. Thus, God decreed free will in man as a certainty. If man does not have free will then what is the purpose of the substitutionary spiritual death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ on the cross in the first place. God decreed that man’s decisions would certainly take place and be totally free and real and that these decisions would exist despite whatever they might be. If man’s decisions are not free how could these decisions put man outside of the Will of God and Plan of God and make man susceptible to judgment by God? Man is NOT impeccable and he is only able not to sin from his own free
will decisions while still being susceptible to succumbing to temptation.
Sovereignty & Salvation
The application of God’s Sovereignty to mankind is found in Acts 13:22, Eph 1:4-6, Phil 2:13.
Even before the creation of man, God in His omniscience knew that man would fail the most
simple test of the prohibition of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden and that a barrier would consequently exist between man and God. He knew each factor in this
barrier that would separate man from God:
• Sin
• The result of sin, spiritual death
• Physical birth & Spiritual Death, precluding a relationship with God
• Human or relative righteousness in opposition to God’s Absolute Righteousness
• Man’s position in Adam, devoid of a Human Spirit and Eternal Life
Because God loved mankind and wanted to express His love toward them, He predesigned a
Plan for the removal of the barrier. This Plan, originating from God’s Sovereignty and was motivated by His perfect love. Consequently, He freely decided to treat man under a policy called Grace. Grace is God’s maximum love expressed according to the standards and values of his Absolute Righteousness through the function of his Absolute Justice so that man cannot earn what God does for him, he does not deserve it and cannot work for it. The barrier could be removed only by the production of Divine Good under the Grace Plan of God based on the Sovereign Decision of God in Eternity Past and the Free Will decisions of the perfect Humanity of The Lord Jesus, The Christ in time during his life on earth.
The Purpose of God
Man is born spiritually dead and sinful and God cannot accept him nor have any relationship with him except for condemning him under Spiritual Death. However, God made a Sovereign
decision to allow his LOVE to break through the situation by establishing a Grace based connection with man. This Grace connection, the Grace Pipeline, has a meeting point between the Sovereignty of God and the Free Will of Man, it is at the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus the Christ on the cross for man’s sins. The Lord Jesus, The Christ was born into this world from a virgin mother as true humanity but without a human father thus NOT
Page #99 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
having the genetic Old Sin Nature and not being subject to spiritual death at his birth. He lived a sinless life and had perfect righteousness as a result so that on the cross upon receiving the imputation of all human sins he satisfied Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God the Father. When He accepted Judgment for these sins and paid the penalties for them with his own Substitutionary Spiritual Death He satisfied the required implementation of the sentence for sin by the Justice of God the Father. (Matt 20:22) Therefore, God is freed to LOVE the believer and bypass his Righteousness and Justice for
condemning, which has already been satisfied by the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus the Christ on the cross for all sins, all causes of spiritual death. However, God is only free to do this IF the individual expresses Positive Volition at Gospel Hearing and makes the free will decision for Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God through Faith alone in The Lord Jesus the Christ alone. The Sovereign Will of God is for the unbeliever to become a believer but He will not use His absolute will against the volition which he gave man when he chooses to reject this offer. (2Pet 3:9, John 7:17, Rev 22:17) Therefore considering the barrier between God and Man: •
The problem of sin is resolved by redemption (1Pet 1:18-19)
• The penalty of sin is removed by the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of Christ (1Pet 2:24)
• The problem of physical birth is overcome by regeneration (Gal 3:26)
• Man’s relative or human righteousness is solved by the imputation of divine righteousness
• The Integrity of God (Absolute Righteousness & Absolute Justice) is resolved by propitiation, God the Father being satisfied by the perfect righteousness of Jesus Christ
taking the place of the sinner paying the Spiritual Death penalty for sin (1John 2:2, John
4:10)
• The barrier of being born with temporal life is resolved by regeneration and the imputation of Eternal Life to the new Human Spirit. (1John 5:11)
Therefore, through the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ on the Cross for all human sins, the barrier is removed and man is reconciled to God by faith alone in Christ alone and enters into a personal relationship with God! By this means the present relation of God to the Cosmos ruled by Satan, beyond His Sovereign permission and restraint of it, is to save out of it an elect people for His heavenly glory and condemn those who reject this offer. Here we find the Sovereignty of God involved in what might be classified as an act of humiliation. Jesus Christ Himself from the Sovereign Volition of His own deity made a decision in Eternity Past to become true humanity and because of this decision eternal salvation, and man’s very existence and his eternal future resulted.
While the unbeliever as a spiritually dead person can express his positive volition by listening to the Gospel, which is a nonmeritorious function, he cannot actually comprehend the significance and ramifications of the Gospel information. Therefore, in evangelism and personal witnessing, God the Holy Spirit is the Sovereign executive and He will use what is accurate and true in the field of Biblical concepts regarding Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God under the ministry of common Grace to enable the spiritually dead human to clearly understand the significance of Gospel information. (Eph 1:13) It is not God’s desire for anyone to perish in the Page #100 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents Lake of Fire; therefore, if anyone does so, it is by an act of his own free will. God has provided everything necessary for anyone to avoid this last judgment condemnation. No one perishes by God’s direct will and although there is only one way of salvation (John 14:6), every member of the human race is free to accept or to reject that way! However, at the very point of Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God, the Sovereign Will of God comes into play and it is HIS Sovereign will that the positive believer have Eternal Life and Eternal Salvation and this is HIS work under His Grace Policy in His DEMONSTRATION, therefore it is permanent. It was the Sovereign decision of God the Father to impute to Christ the sins of the entire world.
Sovereignty planned the cross at the perfect time when every type of volition was designed to kill Jesus and God’s overruling will ensured that Jesus Christ would get to the cross. However, once on the cross, then Sovereignty again took over and imputed all human sins to his humanity and then judged them in him removing Sin permanently as an issue in the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial and Human History.
In addition, The Lord Jesus, The Christ was willing to redeem mankind and without His willingness, without His human volition there would have been no redemption. The redemptive work of Christ on the cross was an act of His own free will. In eternity past His Divine Sovereignty was willing to redeem mankind on the cross, so a part of the Divine Decree is the record of the Sovereign decision of Jesus Christ in eternity past to go to the cross for the judgment of and payment for all human sin. This means that in time His human volition had to coincide with His Divine Sovereignty and His human volition was also willing to go to the cross. The Lord Jesus, The Christ was totally obedient to the Father’s plan in His Sovereignty and in His human volition. (Luke 22:42, Rom 5:19, Phil 2:8) However, when the opportunity for Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God is rejected God has the Sovereign right to condemn and judge just as when Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God is accepted God
has the Sovereign right to impute his righteousness and at a future time to impute blessing to that imputed Absolute Righteousness.
Sovereignty and the Believer.
It is both awesome and thought provoking to realize that sinful, stupid and spiritually dead man can set his volition up against the perfect volition of the Sovereignty of God. Truly therefore God has a sense of humor to even permit the existence of the free will of man and make human volition the basis for solving the Angelic Conflict. His sense of humor is also clear in His making volition the basic principle in the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions. In the Plan of God this human volition can only respond to the Grace system of the Plan of God in a nonmeritorious way and God did not design human volition for any MERIT in his entering or participating in the Plan of God. This means Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God is ONLY by FAITH and spiritual growth by the Royal Family of God is a
totally Grace system and based again totally on a nonmeritorious system of perception. The principle of unlimited atonement is compatible with this in that The Lord Jesus, The Christ was judged for ALL human sins on the cross and did not only die a Substitutionary Spiritual Death Page #101 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
for the ELECT but for the entire Human Race. Therefore, since angelic volition was clearly involved in the fall of Satan and the angelic revolution against God, Man’s volition is used under the Grace Plan of God for resolving that entire revolution and the justification of the resultant condemnation by God. Thus, Human History is the record of man’s volition subordinated to the Sovereignty of God vs Man’s volition revolting against the Sovereign Will of God. Under this concept, evangelism is the first issue and man subordinates self to the Sovereignty of God by personal faith alone in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ alone. Once one chooses to make Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God HE CANNOT GO BACK AND CHANGE The IMMUTABLE Will of God. Human volition nonmeritoriously acquires salvation provided by the Sovereign Will of God and, therefore, this salvation is Eternally Secure. No one can lose his eternal salvation; that would be God denying Himself. God has the Omnipotent power, the Sovereign will, the Divine organization, and the determination to keep every person who makes Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God by faith alone in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ alone saved forever, NO MATTER HOW HE MIGHT FAIL after making this decision. (2Tim 2:13) Therefore, the Eternal security of the believer is a part of the policy of the Omnipotence of God and the Decision of the Sovereignty of God. (1Pet 1:5) Therefore, every time a person makes the decision for Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God through Faith in The Lord Jesus, The Christ the FALLACY of Satan's position and the doom of his revolution is demonstrated to all mankind and all angelic creation. The believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, must realize that he is God’s guest on this earth. By His Sovereign decision, everything one possesses could be swept away in a moment of economic or natural catastrophe.
On the other hand, whether in time of national prosperity or of national adversity, God in His Sovereignty can provide all that the believer counts as wonderful. Regardless of circumstances, the issue is not the possession of money or other accouterments of life or the lack of them but the accumulation of Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the Right Lobe of the Soul, providing the alignment of Human Volition with the Sovereignty of God. The believer is here for a purpose related to thought. The power and glorification of God is in one’s thinking, not in service, works, or action. The implications of this principle are extremely important: • Compliance with the Sovereignty of God is the way in which mankind glorifies God.
▪ Faith alone in Christ alone for eternal salvation.
▪ Postsalvation epistemological rehabilitation by consistent Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible Doctrine.
• Contradiction or rejection of the Will of God is the means of human failure.
▪ Rejection of Christ at Gospel hearing.
▪ Rejection of Absolute Truth, Bible doctrine including the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions.
Sovereignty & The Unbeliever
Regarding the unbeliever, God’s will is that all should be saved (2Pet 3:9, Rev 22:17). Those who accept His will for salvation and believe in Jesus Christ receive everlasting life; those who reject Him, everlasting condemnation. However, God will not use his supreme Sovereignty and Page #102 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents Will against the volition of man to force man to be saved. (John 7:17, Rev 22:17) Only one’s personal Negative Volition at God Consciousness and/or Gospel hearing hinders salvation. Since it is OBVIOUS that NOT all members of the Human Race are saved, it is also obvious that the free will volitional decision of man, himself, is the basis for his unsaved status. Man, having chosen to reject the only means of Eternal Salvation then finds himself face to face with the Sovereign Right of God to condemn him to the Lake of Fire for eternity.
Sovereignty & Spiritual Gifts
The Sovereignty of God, his free will decision, provides a Spiritual Gift for every member of the Royal Family of God. At the point of making Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God, and accompanying his commission as Royal Priest, every Church Age believer receives at least one gift from the God the Holy Spirit. (1Cor 12:11) This gift does not ever depend upon merit, talent, or human ability; it is a Sovereign decision of God the Holy Spirit. (Heb 2:4) Eph 4:11
delineates that apostleship was a Spiritual Gift which depended upon the Sovereign decision of Jesus Christ, and the Sovereign decision of God the Holy Spirit. (1Cor 12:11)
Today, ALL of the many, varied, Spiritual Gifts are appointed by God the Holy Spirit but men, in the Pre-Canon period of the Church Age, were qualified to function as Apostles by receiving the gift of apostleship from The Lord Jesus, The Christ. (Eph 4:11) After this initial appointment of this special Spiritual Gift, all appointments of ALL Spiritual Gifts became the Sovereign ministry of God the Holy Spirit. All apostles were required to be an eyewitness of the Resurrected Christ. This qualified the eleven, discounting Judas, but Paul was qualified on the Damascus road when The Lord Jesus, The Christ appeared to him personally. (Acts 1:22, 1Cor 9:1, 1Cor 15:8-9) Apostolic authority resided in the Spiritual Gift of apostleship. Once the authority of the apostle was established and once he was identified as an apostle in the early church ALL of his temporary spiritual gifts were withdrawn. There was no illusion for Paul with regard to himself, no ego at all regarding his position as Apostle. (1Cor 12:11, Heb 2:4) 1Cor 12:10 demonstrates the Grace of God and also the Grace Orientation of Paul because he recognizes that his own MERIT does not determine his Apostleship which only depended on who and what God is.
At any point in the Dispensation of the Church Age each Spiritual Gift is necessary for the function of the entire body of Christ, the Royal Family of God, on this earth. (1Cor 12:27-31) Also, ALL Spiritual Gifts function ONLY through the Filling of God the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:4, 1Cor 13) The initial distribution of Spiritual Gifts began at the time the royal family was formed at the beginning of the Church Age. The Spiritual Gifts were provided by the victorious Christ. (Eph 4:8-11) The subsequent distribution of Spiritual Gifts during the Church Age is the ministry of God the Holy Spirit who has organized the situation, so that in every locale at any given time every Spiritual Gift necessary for the function of the Royal Family of God is present.
There may not be the exploitation of an individual’s Gift, but it is there all the same. In other words, this is a divine decision from the Sovereignty of God based on the Omniscience of God the Holy Spirit. These gifts never depend upon human ability, morality, talent, achievement, etc.

Sovereignty & Spiritual Gift of Pastor Teacher
At the point of of a male believer making the decision for Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God, God the Holy Spirit, in His perfect wisdom, Sovereignly bestows the Spiritual Gift of Pastor Teacher, guardian of the Word of God, to certain male members of the Royal Family of God. This does not mean that they will ever function as a minister, as a Pastor Teacher of a local church; it means they should. However, this Gift requires incredible intensive academic preparation in order for it to function properly in any Local Church.
It is necessary to distinguish between the appointment and the establishment of the ministry for the Pastor Teacher. All Pastor Teachers receive their appointment at the very point of Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God. The Spiritual Gift of the pastor-teacher is a communication gift and he receives the appointment so that he can communicate an ACCURATE delineation of Bible Doctrine from the original languages of Scripture. The establishing of his ministry requires consistent spiritual growth to the point of Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God, Academic Preparation in the areas of History and Biblical Languages, and absolute faithfulness to the Accurate interpretation and presentation of the Word of God, Bible Doctrine. The establishment of their ministry comes through the consistent metabolization of Bible Doctrine over a period of time in order for them to reach Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God and then intensive academic preparation. Therefore, this Spiritual Gift, which is restricted to males only, includes both authority and the ability to communicate doctrine to a congregation in the local church, regardless of the talent or ability of the individual receiving the Gift. Therefore, according to the principles involved in the distribution of this Gift, there is a right pastor for every individual believer and for every congregation. No Pastor Teacher has ever earned or deserved the right to be a Pastor Teacher because this is a Grace Gift!
Sovereignty & Miracles
The performance of Miracles is and always has been a decision of the Sovereignty of God when all the facts from divine Omniscience demand it. Then the Omnipotence of God goes into
action and a miracle is performed. Therefore, ALL miracles come from the Sovereignty, Wisdom and Omnipotence of God. No human being ever performed a miracle. This was even
true in the use of the gift of miracles during the Pre-Canon period of the Church Age. The Sovereignty of God plus the Wisdom of God plus the Omnipotence of God equals a miracle.
Miracles are not the decision of human beings in prayer, in hope, or in wishes. All miracles are always compatible with the Will and Plan of God. An example of a counterfeit of miracle is Satan commanding the removal of a demon fallen angel who has induced some illness in an individual to make it appear as if the person has been healed by a charlatan, a so called faith healer. Believers who pray for miracles to solve their problems never understand the function and power of prayer and the Grace of God. Miracles are only very rarely performed as a result of the Sovereign Decision of God using the Omnipotence of God without the help of any believer or his request in prayer. Most believers praying for miracles are cycling through and reversing their functions under the arrogance skills and are loser believers saturated with Page #104 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Arrogance. There are no solutions to anything in life through miracles just as there are no solutions to anything in life through prayer. Neither are Problem Solving Devices for the Christian Way of Life. A miracle is a Sovereign Decision under the Grace Policy of God
regarding pertinent situations in history and it is NEVER a sign of the status quo of the
spiritual life.
All miracles which The Lord Jesus, The Christ performed in his incarnation were performed by the Sovereignty of God the Holy Spirit, totally apart from the prototype spiritual life, which was under the custodianship of the human nature of The Lord Jesus, The Christ in hypostatic union. Each and every Church Age believer has a spiritual life which is designed to be far greater than any miracle.
Sovereignty & Witnessing
The believer in a client nation to God is generally motivated to communicate the Gospel of The Lord Jesus, The Christ, to give other people a chance to hear, to accept or reject the Plan of God for Eternal Salvation. God the Holy Spirit is the Sovereign executive of both personal and collective evangelism. That means all the imploring, begging, weeping and wailing, all the pressure of any kind for over exhibitions such as coming forward, raising one’s hands, any jumping through psychological hoops, is total futility when considering Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God. The believer’s responsibility in individual or collective witnessing to make the Gospel, the GOOD NEWS, that The Lord Jesus, The Christ provided a means of negating Sin in one’s life and to enable anyone to enter and live under the Plan of God. The function of God the Holy Spirit is a dual effort as Sovereign executive in witnessing. First He alone can make the Absolute Truth of the Gospel of Christ perspicuous to a spiritually dead human being.
Then He alone can take the pathetic, inconsequential Positive Volition which occurs with faith acceptance of the Gospel and make it effective for Eternal Salvation. Therefore, because God the Holy Spirit is the Sovereign executive of evangelism and witnessing the believer must stick to ONLY making the issue of faith alone in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ alone for one’s personal sins CLEAR and nothing more.
Sovereignty & Prayer
The most important consideration is that Prayer is NOT a Problem Solving Device for the
Christian Way of Life in this Church Age. Therefore, Prayer, even when used according to the correct protocol for Prayer, cannot coerce Divine Sovereignty in order to overcome some pressure or adverse circumstance in life. Prayer cannot coerce Divine Sovereignty to change how the volition of another person functions. Therefore, in short, Prayer cannot be used by any believer to attempt to dictate to God how He should use his Sovereignty.
Sovereignty & True Happiness
Happiness for the believer is the result of Living and Functioning within the Protocol Plan of God and completing execution of it thus achieving the Tactical Victory of the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial. Happiness in the Christian Way of Life is acquired by developing the 9th Problem Solving Device, completing construction of the top floor of the Edification Complex of the Soul and thus gaining the ability to Share the Happiness of God. God in His Sovereignty decided to Page #105 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents share His perfect happiness with the believer in time who is consistent in the Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible Doctrine, function under the divine priorities and execution of the divine mandates of the Protocol Plan of God. Therefore True Happiness is ONLY related to and available within the Plan of God as a result of the Grace Policy of God.
God possesses perfect and eternal happiness, and he cannot ever lose it and He made a Sovereign Decision to share this happiness with man, the Christian who reaches Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God in his lifetime.
Sovereignty & Promotion
There are two verses of scripture that deal with the principle of promotion based strictly on the Sovereign decision of God, Josh 3:7 & 1Pet 5:5-6. John the Baptist said to the religious people listening to him who were complaining about the type of success that Jesus was having,
overshadowing the ministry of John, that no one has this type of success unless it comes from God himself. The source of divine promotion is the Sovereignty of God. If the ministry of Jesus was increasing and the ministry of John the Baptist was decreasing this was God’s
business and the result of His Sovereign Decision, not John’s, not the religious crowd’s, and not that of John’s disciples. John’s job was to remain faithful and to be stabilized by a saturation of Metabolized Bible Doctrine the Right Lobe of the Stream of Consciousness of his own Soul causing him to remain oriented to the Grace of God. ALL Christian Promotion is strictly in the hands of the Lord and based on His Sovereign Decisions for the advancing
believer. It is always based on the application of God’s Grace Policy to his life. The believer must avoid seeking to promote himself and the mental attitude sins which result from jealousy toward those whom God has promoted. The believer’s job is to personally advance in the Plan of God by means of consistency in the Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible Doctrine, thus to be faithful.
Sovereignty & Rewards or Blessings
All Blessing and Reward just like all promotion is based on the Sovereign decisions of God. No blessing nor rewards from God can ever be EARNED and are never DESERVED by any believer.
They are a part of the Grace Plan of God and depend totally upon the Sovereignty of God.
Blessing in the life of the believer has 2 types of requirement based on the use of one’s
Volition. In one type of blessing the Volition is used 1 time to gain entrance into the Plan of God as Royal Family of God and from this one decision many types of Grace support in time
are provided by God to ALL believers without regard to their status quo in the Spiritual Life.
In the second type of blessing, volition must be consistently used a myriad of times to fulfill the Escrow requirements to receive what is know as Escrow Super – Grace or Escrow Ultra
Super – Grace during the believer’s lifetime or Escrow Surpassing Grace for the believer to enjoy in Eternity. It is the Sovereignty of the Father, who in Eternity Past composed the Divine Decree with a paragraph of future Escrow blessing for each and every believer in Human History. However, though these blessings exist they cannot be acquired until the Escrow Requirements are fulfilled. The underlying principle behind this is that All blessings and rewards are distributed based on the Sovereign decision of God the Father who has all the facts and all the information and thus He rewards accordingly and based on one’s developed capacity for the blessings.
Page #106 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
While achievement in the fulfillment of the spiritual life in this Church Age is a matter of the use of one’s volition and function under his developed standards and values, the time of the resurrection of the believer is a matter of Divine Sovereign Volition and the Action of God.
(1Cor 15:51-52) Church Age believers who have died will precede those Church Age believers who are alive at that time in resurrection and then the Old Testament Scripture believers will be resurrected last. (1Cor 15:53-54) Therefore, the Death of the Believer is God’s victory because of Resurrection. (1Pet 1:3-4) The connotation is that the believer does not come to the resurrection or attain the goal of the resurrection, but the resurrection comes to him. Only God can make the resurrection come.
Therefore, when it occurs is not the issue and by developing a Personal Sense of Destiny as Problem Solving Device #6, the believer KNOWS it is going to happen and it does not matter when it happens. The believer does not arrive at the resurrection because of any decision or action he has made, but because God brings the resurrection to him. He reaches a goal provided by God, the end of his purpose in this life and then God calls him home in death or into the Resurrection. Therefore, the final goal of the Royal Family of God is not a matter of the use of volition, and God does not allow the Church Age believers to cause the resurrection by anything they can do. The absolute of the Resurrection of the Royal Family of God removes the problem of the relative of the believer being a loser or winner, being dead or alive, because all Church Age believers are involved. All believers, as Royal Family of God, regardless of their spiritual life status, will be a part of the resurrection and will be there on time and at the same time to receive their own personal resurrection body. The relative status of the believer as winner or loser in the Spiritual Life is not an issue in receiving a resurrection body and will not hinder the believer from being a part of the resurrection of the Royal Family of God. The believer must come to realize that neither winner or loser can deserve the resurrection. The resurrection is neither earned or deserved even by the best of believers, and the worst of believers are not excluded. The understanding of this comes by means of enhanced Grace Orientation to the point where the believer begins to appreciate the true Essence and Character of God as the source of all blessing. This is true humility which comes by recognizing how and what relatives actually adhere to the absolutes. True humility is coming to the place where one understands that everything in the Christian Way of Life is based and dependent on the Grace Policies and the Sovereign Decisions of God and that the
believer can do nothing apart from the Power of God.
The exit-resurrection, (gr) Exanastasis, is the means by which the Royal Family of God exits from the earth whether they are alive at the time or have died at some time prior to its
occurring. Therefore, every death of a believer in this Church Age is a victory because of what God has Sovereignly decided to do regarding resurrection in Eternity Past. (1Cor 15:54) The exit-resurrection is the final goal of the Church Age and God provides it totally. Mankind cannot in any way cause it to come to pass. God’s perfect timing does not require anything from the volition of man and it is the Sovereignty, Wisdom, and Omnipotence of God which brings the resurrection to the Royal Family of God. This means that the believer’s volition, Page #107 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
cognition, and individual ability or merit are not factors in the resurrection of the Church Age believer. In addition there will be no distinction made between winners and losers at the point of receiving a resurrection body and all believers will receive a relatively equal Resurrection Body. Whatever the failures or successes related to one’s life and death, all will revert to the principle of divine impersonal love in resurrection. Thus, resurrection supersedes whatever one is in dying and, therefore, it is victory for all believers. (1Cor 15:54-57) There is no victory for the grave because all believers will have a resurrection body.
For the believer whose momentum in the Spiritual Life carries him to Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God, death is going to be profitable forever. (Phil 1:20-21) After his death, the soul of the believer resides in an interim body until the resurrection of the Royal Family of God, at which time it receives a resurrection body. The soul of the unbeliever leaves the physical body and goes to Hades where it remains in “Torments” until the end of time when it is resurrected also for the Great White Throne Judgment. There he is brought before the Great White Throne, where he is judged based on the inadequacy of his Human Good production as a means of allowing him to live with God for eternity. Then he is cast into the lake of fire along with Satan and all fallen angels, providing eternal agony, decisions from the Sovereignty of God alone.

For a more detailed understanding of the Categories of the Grace of God provided for mankind especially believers see – Understanding Grace
The Grace of God is not strictly a divine attribute, but the combined expression of God’s divine attributes. God’s perfect policy of Grace is based on infinite, eternal, and Sovereign decisions established in eternity past and recorded in the Divine Decree from the composite expression of the entirety of the Essence of God. This is particularly the interaction of the Sovereignty of God with the Love of God which motivated and initiated the development of the Policy of Grace as the expression of the Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God in conjunction with the Veracity, Immutability and Omniscience of God. Therefore, the Grace of God is not actually a part of the Essence of God but its composition is the product of the totally unified interaction of the entire Essence, Character or Attributes of God. The Grace of God is the plan, policy and the principles set up by God for creation. It was first applied in some format to the angelic creatures and then to the universe as each was created by God.
After the revolution of Satan and his followers, fallen angels, and after the judicial verdict from the condemnation, judgment and sentencing by God with His declaring the penalty for these
fallen angels to be eternity in the Lake of Fire, when God approved and granted the appeal of Satan regarding this sentencing, the Grace of God was then applied to mankind and Human
History. When one considers the purpose for the creation of mankind, that it was to be a DEMONSTRATION of the absolutely consistent unified function of the Essence of God at all
times, designed specifically to refute the appeal claim by Satan that the Essence of God did not function in a consistent unified way, then the Grace of God comes into a proper perspective.
Therefore, the Grace of God extended toward mankind, being the product of the unified function of all aspects of the Essence of God, as a Perfect Plan and Policy from a Perfect God, emphasizes that imperfect man cannot ever add to or detract anything from any aspect of that plan, policy or the principles involved in them. The Grace policy of God in a nutshell says that in creation God does all the work and receives all the credit and his creatures receive the benefit which they cannot ever earn or deserve.
In Human History Grace is all that God is free to do for man on the basis of the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ on the Cross for all man’s sins, which man cannot ever EARN or DESERVE. This provides the guidelines for God’s freedom to
express his Love to degenerate mankind. No one can give apart from freedom and God gives
from total freedom based on the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ.
Grace is his policy and plan for his DEMONSTRATION to angelic creatures based on the life on this earth of man, it is the function and mechanic of the totality of divine Modus Vivendi.
Therefore, Grace ONLY depends on the Essence and Character of God, on who and what God is
NEVER on man. Grace is what God can do for man based on who and what HE is NOT what
or who man is or what he can think, say or do, EVER. Therefore, God, because of being
Page #109 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
immutable, can only be consistent with his Character and Essence toward creation by means of Grace which is based on Propitiation from the Substitutionary Spiritually Dead of The Lord Jesus, The Christ. At the very moment of making Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God
the new believer comes to the place where the Justice of God and Righteousness of God are
satisfied by the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of Christ so that God can then Love him to the maximum. (Eph 2:8-9)
After Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God the issue for the believer regarding Grace is to sort out the difference between Grace and Legalism, which legalism is mans efforts, talents or abilities intruding onto the Plan of God. GRACE is the policy of God formed from the function of the Love of God and Sovereignty of God in conjunction with the Veracity, Immutability and Omniscience of God and based on the Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God. Grace by means of the Sovereignty and Love of God then can motivate results in the functions of the Justice of God for imputing everything (blessing and discipline) directly to the indwelling Righteousness of God provided by God for the believer at the moment he chooses to engage in Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God. This process functions primarily in order that the Essence of God especially the Integrity of God not ever be compromised by this imputation to believers possessing Old Sin Natures. Grace is the basis for the function of the Justice of God in the judicial imputation of ALL human sins to the humanity of The Lord Jesus, The Christ on the cross. Grace is the basis for the function of the Justice of God in the partnered judicial imputation of absolute divine righteousness at Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God to the new believer. (2Cor 5:21) This is the Grace Pipeline which insulates all provision from God from any and all types of human or angelic interference and interaction.
Consider that when God created Ish (Adam) and Ishah (Eve) he provided EVERYTHING they
needed to exist and survive and would have done so perpetually. As part of the DEMONSTRATION of the unity of his essence he gave them a facsimile of his sovereignty which is human volition or free will and then had to provide a test for it, He chose the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, to test their free will regarding their willingness to remain in the Plan of God. When Adam and Eve had failed the test which resulted in their Spiritual Death, he provided a means for them and ALL SUBSEQUENT HUMAN BEINGS to reestablish their relationship with Him through a promised savior. When the Human Race expanded as a result of newly established procreation at that time, he provided over time, the Laws of Divine
Establishment and Divine Institutions for ALL MANKIND without regard to their decisions to join the Plan of God or NOT! When a person becomes a Christian through nonmeritorious
faith alone in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ alone, God then provides all the necessary logistics for his continued life in this world, of which he is no longer a part, for his advancement in the new Spiritual Life to a tactical victory in the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial. These logistics this individual cannot ever earn or deserve and whether he chooses to use them to reach that victory or NOT he will receive them ALL OF HIS LIFE!

Definition:
Grace is the Perfect Policy for the Perfect Plan of God laid out in Eternity Past prior to any creation and is based on Who and What God is and is what he provides for his creatures which they cannot ever earn, deserve nor work for:
• The Grace of God is an INFINITE reflection and exemplification of the integrated functions of the Essence of God with, at a minimum, the Sovereignty of God, the Omniscience, Omnipresence and Omnipotence of God working in unalterable coordination
with the absolute perfection of the Love of God, the Norms and Standards and Scale of
Values of the Righteousness of God and the absolute fairness of the Justice of God, as
part of the Integrity or Holiness of God, according to His absolute Veracity and all—
inclusive Immutability, ETERNALLY.
Therefore, Grace is the genius of God, and Bible Doctrine is the revelation and manifestation of that genius. Grace is the Plan, Policy and Principles of God which enable GOD to provide for man in unquestionable coordination and compliance with the principles and functions of his Divine Essence without compromise.
Grace can be identified with God as a part of the Integrity of God. (Rom 5:15; 1Cor 1:4, 1Cor
15:10, 2Cor 6:1, 2Cor 8:1; Eph 3:2, Eph 3:7) Grace has existed from eternity past. It is an extension of divine Love, a motivation of God, and Grace is a characteristic and a policy of divine Love in combination with divine Sovereignty, Veracity, Immutability and Omniscience.
Therefore, Grace is an integral part of divine Love and all other aspects of the Essence of God.
All of God’s Grace is based on the Integrity of God where the Love of God in conjunction with the Sovereignty of God is the source of the development of Grace, where the Norms and
Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God is the foundation, the guidance and support for the Grace of God and the Justice of God provides the action or function of Grace toward his creatures including man based on the motivation and implementation from the Love of God and Sovereignty of God. Therefore, there can be no function of Grace that violates the Integrity of God and contradicts the Righteousness of God, so that in the function of the divine policy of Grace, no attribute of God can ever be compromised. Therefore, Grace as a function of the Integrity of God in the direction of man, sometimes is beneficial desirable blessing and sometimes it is punitive undesirable discipline.
Therefore, Grace is all that God is free to do for mankind without compromising His essence or nullifying His attributes. Grace depends entirely upon who and what God is. Grace is both undeserved blessing from God based on the integrated and consistent function of all three
members of the Trinity or it is Divine Discipline based on the failure of mankind both occurring in compliance with the Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God.
Grace has all the merit; faith has no merit at all, thus the necessity for Efficacious Grace in order to render man’s Nonmeritorious Faith decision for entry into the Plan of God to be
effective. Grace functions are decisions of the Sovereignty of God based on the motivations from the Love of God; faith is the nonmeritorious decision of the human being to accept the propositions and policies of Grace. Therefore, the Grace of God is the expression of the Love Page #111 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
of God, Will of God and Righteousness of God toward man in Human History. Because the Grace of God encompasses all the Principles in the Plan and Policy of God, there can be no plan apart from Grace and this means that everything in the Protocol Plan of God depends on who and what God is. The Grace of God can only be advanced by the Justice of God, because Grace is a policy from the Love and Sovereignty of God based on the Righteousness of God executed through the Justice of God.
Divine Mercy
Mercy is the Grace of God in action. (Ex 22:26-27, Ex 34:6-7, Ps 116:5, 1Pet 2:3) Therefore, Mercy is the Motivation of the Love of God based on the Grace Plan of God in action through the Justice of God toward the objects of divine affection; the expression of divine Impersonal – Unconditional Love toward all mankind along with Personal Love toward the believer.
Therefore, God’s Mercy is His Love toward the believer, a creature who possesses His own
perfect Righteousness.
Divine Goodness
God under his Grace Plan and Policy God ONLY accepts the production of Absolute Good
termed ‘Divine Good’ produced by delegated divine power, in contrast to the Evil Plan and
Policy of Satan which accepts all forms of relative good produced by the power and abilities of man, called in Human History, ‘human good’. Divine Good is the production under the Grace Plan and Policy of God of the believer who remains consistently within the Divine Dynasphere, the Power System of God, and who functions in compatibility with the Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God which then allows Love of God to orient the Justice of God to act toward him for BLESSING. This is therefore also the production or action of God directed toward the believer as all of the Grace provisions and blessings for Time and Eternity under his Plan.
Page #112 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Immutability is defined as:
• Not capable of or susceptible to change
• The state of not changing, or being unable to be changed
• The state or quality of being that which is “not capable or susceptible of change, either by increase or by decrease, by development or by self-evolution.
• Unchangeable
• Invariable
• Permanent
Therefore, God, being Immutable, is in no sphere or relationship subject to change. (Ps 102:26-
27, Mal 3:6, Heb 1:12) He cannot be less than He is, and, since He fills all things in His Omnipresence, He cannot be more than He is. God cannot be better or worse than He is and
He never had a moment when He was better or worse, in contrast to man, for whom every
day is either better or worse than those preceding or after it. He can be removed from no place, nor is any aspect of his Character or Essence subject to change. This means that God’s character remains inviolate, it cannot EVER be compromised. Not only is there never any
change in God Himself, but the doctrinal principles which He has revealed are also eternally stable and unchangeable. Human history discloses a changing framework of expediency among the dispensations revealed by God with a great change in the Church Age from the elaborate ceremonials of Judaism into the simple forms of Christianity. However, the same principles abide through all these periods. Change or variation within the sphere of administrative system is entirely consistent with the unchangeableness of God, while the changeless doctrinal principles are a profound reality of his Immutability. That he regards the same person now with reprehensive displeasure, and again with approving love, is not only consistent with his Immutability, but a requirement of it in view of any change in the object of his changed regards. (Ps 33:11, Mal 3:6, Heb 13:8, James 1:17)
Immutability & Anthropopathic Descriptions
Because God is Immutable He never had a hard day and has never been unhappy, thus there is a vast difference between creature and Creator. The point is that the believer, no matter how good or heinous a thing he might think, say or do, cannot give God a good day or a bad day, but He, God can certainly give that believer either! The anthropomorphic and anthropopathic representations of The Lord Jesus, The Christ in Scripture merely represent His perfect consistent attitude toward variations in man, in history, and in time in terms which man can understand. Therefore, when man changes, God seems to change, but in reality God remains consistent with His own character and only applies a variation of it to man. As a weather vane does not change its shape or composition while turning with a shift in the wind, so God merely brings into action a different aspect of His unchanging Character and Plan when man changes:
• When man is carnal there is a divine policy and standard.
• When man is reversionistic there is another divine policy and standard.
• When man is spiritual there is another divine policy and standard.
Being Omnipotent, God has the ability to handle any situation with whatever is necessary;
Page #113 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
therefore, the fact that He meets one set of circumstances with Divine Discipline and another set with Divine Deliverance or blessing does not mean that His Immutability has been compromised. It means instead that He is wise and just and that He knows what to do in all cases based on his unchanging standards and values and when most efficiently to do it. God deals with everything in all of creation according to the information He possesses, which based on his Omniscience is absolute and total.
Immutability & Judgment
Related specifically to the supreme court of heaven, the Justices are perfect with no contradictions. They are Immutable yet able to evaluate different situations in different ways because they have complete information, therefore, Their pronouncements and judgments are
always perfect. Therefore, Immutability is completely consistent with God’s Freedom, Sovereign Decisions and ceaseless activity and He simultaneously deals with millions and millions of creatures, both angelic and human who come under His special attention. He dictates to his creation and it does not ever dictate to Him. Therefore, God is free to act according to His Divine Character or Essence and because He is Immutable He cannot change His nature, therefore, God is always at His best. The Righteousness of God as His Divine Standards and Values functions through the Justice of God, and these are the watchdogs over all His attributes, making certain that when He deals with man He is totally consistent with His Character, Essence and Divine Standards and Values. The point is that being Immutable, God cannot destroy Himself as God, therefore, God cannot be inconsistent with His own essence. In
Rom 10:1-8 the Old Testament quotations in this passage demonstrate that salvation in every dispensation is always the same, because being Immutable, God is consistent. It is God’s Immutability demanding consistency which guarantees that God’s Plan for the Eternal Salvation of man will never change and that His offer will never be withdrawn as long as man lives on the earth. Consistency of thought is, by definition, RATIONALITY, and by virtue of His Immu
tability, Omniscience, Ve rac
ity and Integrity God is ALWAYS perfectly RATIONAL, totally
LOGICAL.
David recognized that the Supreme Court of Heaven must act on his behalf because in his
appeals to God he emphasizes the principle that ONLY the facts are important. The importance of any case is that it must be judged ONLY by the true facts. Hearsay is false evidence and is opinion from others, a witness must only tell what he observes and not interpret it. The witness in David’s case is God and He, being omniscient, can also interpret what He saw.
Facts are not opinions and only facts can be presented so that the judge must cope with the facts alone. The Omniscience of God will know true facts and be able to interpret them, His Omnipotence gives him the power to judge over all things and His Immutability makes this
judge incorruptible and His Veracity adds to this.
Immutability & Sovereign Decisions
God, though Immutable, is not immobile, therefore, because He consistently pursues a course based on his perfect Absolute Righteous standards and values, His attitude must be adapted to every conceivable change in his creatures, in Human History this is man. God’s Immutability renders it certain that his Love has adapted to every varying mood and condition of his Page #114 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
creation, so as to guide their steps, sympathize with their sorrows and answer their prayers. It is the Immutability of God plus his Perfect Love which gives an Eternal Stability that will never change. (Is 40:28) Being Immutable and unchangeable God has never had to reverse or withdraw a decision. God does not have to be flexible, because He is perfect and has always known everything. Therefore, His decisions made in Eternity Past and put down in the Divine Decree are perfect and remain perfect throughout ALL time which was in fact created for them to be carried out. The Immutability of God insures that what He has begun He will complete, what He has promised He will fulfill and bring to pass. God is bound by His Integrity, Veracity, (revealed in Bible Doctrine) and Immutability to complete what He has begun and
NOTHING can or will hinder this. One can see a twisted humor in the plight of Satan and
total futility because if man can know this he certainly has known and experienced it long ago, he knows his end is inevitable and his efforts in Human History are simply delaying tactics for the inevitable. God’s Grace plan depends on God and the individual believer can go along for the ride or be crushed by it. Therefore, God WILL complete what He has begun with regard to creation and Human History and also with regard to the believer’s personal life. Therefore, any time God makes an appointment that appointment is permanent. The decision for it comes from the Sovereignty of God but Sovereignty must be linked with Immutability, Omniscience and Integrity. God knows what he is doing, he appointed Aaron High Priest establishing the Levitical Priesthood and The Lord Jesus, The Christ as Royal High Priest establishing the Royal Priesthood of the Royal Family of God for every Church Age believer.
The Immutability of God guarantees that the paragraph of the divine decree with the individual believer’s Escrow Super – Grace blessings laid down in Eternity Past is unchangeable. It is unchangeable because of His Character or Essence, because of His Word and His provision of a GRACE based plan in eternity past. Immutability means that any time God makes any kind of a promise, He completely understands the implications of that promise and He has to keep His word because He can’t do anything else. The entire Grace Plan of God was put into the Divine Decree with his total understanding that because of His Immutability it is unchangeable. (Heb
6:17) God in making a promise has given the believer an immutable thing and God also took an oath regarding the provision of Escrow Super – Grace blessings for the mature believer thus giving the believer another immutable thing.
Immutability & Faithfulness
God’s divine characteristic of faithfulness is the result of His immutability. (Heb 13:8) God is always faithful, He never changes (Immutability), therefore, He never fails to support and provide for the believer without regard to his spiritual status quo. (Deut 31:6, Heb 13:5, Heb 13:8) Thus various aspects of Divine Essence can be applied to a given situation in such a way that one can come up with perfect stability and total faithfulness from God. Therefore Faithfulness is based upon the principle of the Immutability of God. He is faithful in providing the mechanics of Salvation, as a result the believer cannot ever lose his salvation, this is eternal security; He is faithful in providing logistics for the believer in this world ruled by Satan; and He is faithful to the believer no matter what his circumstance, situation or status Page #115 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents quo may be in Phase II of His Plan for the life of that believer in time. (1John 1:9, 2Tim 2:13,
2Thes 3:3, 1Cor 1:9, 1Cor 10:13, Heb 10:23, 1Pet 4:19) &&&&Therefore, the Faithfulness of God is the consistency and the stability of God. Consequently, Immutability prohibits forever any possibility of God having any human type of instability. Because God cannot change any aspect of his Essence He can never be unfair to the believer. Because God is consistent with Himself, He is also consistent with every believer thus faithful to all believers. The very existence, function, provision, and blessing of the Royal Family of God now in time and forever in eternity, is based totally on the faithfulness of God. This totally depends on the Character of God which is unbending, Immutable. Consider, If God found a way to save corrupt sinful mankind, AND HE DID, it is therefore much easier for Him to find a way to provide for believers and to bless them. (1Thes 5:24) God’s perfect faithfulness in eternity past in devising and implementing his Grace Plan including the mechanics for Salvation Adjustment to the
Justice of God, inevitably leads to God’s perfect faithfulness to every believer in time.
Therefore, If God was faithful to the believer in eternity past, AND HE WAS, because of His Immutable Character He can only be faithful to the Christian in time where the variables
become extensive. Then being faithful to Him in time, He can only be faithful to him in
Eternity Future. This is a clear application of Immutability so that it becomes clearly apparent that everything that God has done for mankind is a manifestation of His perfect essence. The Potential and Reality of Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God manifests the Sovereignty, Love, Eternal Life, Immutability, Virtue and Integrity of God to name only part.
Immutability & Sin
Temptation is an invitation to violate a set of standards. God has perfect Essence therefore He cannot be tempted. Therefore, the Absolute standards and values of the Righteousness of God are not subject to temptation; the Sovereign Will of God is not subject to temptation; Immutability guarantees that God could not ever succumb to temptation because his Character and Standards are unchangeable. Immutability plus Absolute Righteousness means that God can only resent temptation and therefore anyone who succumbs to temptation, the invitation to violate the principles of the Character or standards and values of God and produce Sin.
Therefore, the only contact God can have with Sin is with regard to the Function of the
Integrity of God, his Absolute Justice judging, condemning and punishing it.
Because the Righteousness of God cannot have anything to do with a sin, which is a violation of the standards, values or character of God, the Righteousness of God can only condemn sin.
God could not Love sinful man personally without compromising both His Absolute Righteousness and Absolute Justice. However, under the Perfect Grace Plan of God a way was provided to give mankind the potential to restore a personal relationship with God through God the Son becoming human. As true humanity, God the Son in Hypostatic Union as the God /
Man, The Lord Jesus, The Christ, paid the penalty for ALL human sin with his Substitutionary Spiritual Death. In addition, God the Father was satisfied, propitiated, with the payment of the Page #116 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Substitutionary Spiritual Death of Christ on behalf of all mankind. Now God does not compromise any of His Character or Essence in loving the one who has accepted this Substitutionary Spiritual Death and made Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God.
Immutability ties this all together.
The solution to all personal sin for the believer begins with the isolation of those sins. The mechanics are to first of all, name or acknowledge any known sin to God, then that sin and all others are forgiven. This occurs whether one accepts the reality of this or not. Believing 1John 1:9 simply determines if he will ENJOY the benefits of the forgiveness of sins. Lack of faith never affects the Immutability or Faithfulness of God, but it will cause great discomfort for the one who cannot isolate and forget the acknowledged sins.
Immutability & Bible Doctrine
God reveals himself and his Grace Plan through the Scripture, the Word of God, Bible Doctrine and it is itself unchangeable. (Ps 119:89, Ps 148:6, Is 40:8, 1Pet 1:25) This points to the unreality and subversive distortion involved in the addition of Non-canonical Books to the Canon of Scripture by the Roman Catholic Church. God’s designs and ongoing works are unchanging. (Eccl 3:14) God gives to mankind two Immutable things:
• The person of The Lord Jesus, The Christ
• Bible doctrine (Heb 6:18)
God the Son, The Lord Jesus, The Christ, is Immutable and unchanging (Heb 13:8) and the Bible is said to be the Mind or Thinking of Christ (1Cor 2:16) therefore, it is also Immutable and unchangeable. Therefore, Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the Right Lobe of the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul is the only true stabilizer in life. In addition, God’s Faithfulness stems from His Immutability (Lam 3:22-23) and his faithfulness is a result of his unchanging Absolute Justice. Therefore because of Immutability God is faithful to man in keeping His promises. (Num 23:19, 1Kings 8:56, 2Cor 1:20, Titus 1:2, Heb 10:23, Heb 11:11) God is Faithful to forgive when man fails in sin but takes responsibility for those sins. (1John 1:9) He is Faithful in providing Eternal Security for man’s status in Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God. (2Tim 2:12-13) Therefore, because God is Immutable, there is nothing a believer can think, say or do to get himself out of Eternal Life with God after he has made Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God by faith alone in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ alone. God is Faithful to deliver the advancing or mature believer from or through adversity, pressure or testing. (1Cor 10:13, 1Pet 4:19) He is also Faithful in providing temporal security by stabilizing and protecting the advancing or mature believer in all circumstances of life until his function in the Plan of God is fulfilled. (2Thes 3:3) Therefore, God’s Immutability is the only anchor for the believer moving toward or in Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God in unstable times. God is faithful in the continued administration of His Protocol Plan through to its absolute completion. (1Cor 1:9) He is faithful in His day to day Logistical Grace provisions to enable the individual believer to continue to live in this world ruled by his greatest antagonist, Satan. (1Thes 5:24) This is the unchangeableness of His Plan and Purpose for creation. (Heb 6:17, Ps 33:11, Heb 13:8, John
Page #117 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
Immutability & Omnipotence
Immutability means that God uses His power in a manner consistent with His total Character or Essence especially His Integrity composed of the Standards and Values of His Absolute Righteousness and the perfect functions of His Absolute Justice. Therefore, No attribute of God can supersede or operate independently of His other attributes. Therefore, God will never act capriciously, or arbitrarily, or in violation of what He has already promised and decreed. His Veracity and Immutability guarantee His promises and that what he Decreed to be reality WILL
be according to the Free Will choices in his creation. Therefore, God’s Omnipotence cannot override His Immutability or be used apart from the standards of his character. Omniscience and Sovereignty are the origin of God’s Grace Plan, while Immutability, Veracity and Integrity are foremost in the Faithfulness of God and his Plan to the believer.
The pre-incarnate person of The Lord Jesus, The Christ is infinite and eternal God. He is coequal and coeternal with God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. He has the same omnipotence as God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. Therefore, because of Immutability, He cannot change His own omnipotence and become anything less. The post-incarnate person of Christ is that same undiminished deity along with the perfect, impeccable, trichotomous true humanity in one person forever. (John 1:1-3, John 1:14) Therefore, the two natures of Christ are united without transfer of attributes because the Essence of deity cannot be changed being Immutable; the Infinite God cannot be transferred to the finite man. To rob God of any attribute of His essence would destroy His deity. To rob the humanity of The Lord Jesus, The Christ of a single attribute of His humanity would destroy His perfect humanity. Therefore, because of Immutability NO attribute of the Essence of God the Son was changed by the virgin birth and subsequent incarnation. In fulfilling the purpose of the first advent certain attributes of the deity of The Lord Jesus, The Christ were NOT USED, but this does not imply that they were either surrendered or destroyed.
When The Lord Jesus, The Christ was on the cross he was deity and humanity in Hypostatic
Union. He had Absolute Sovereignty, Righteousness, Justice, Love. Eternal Life, Omnipotence, Omniscience, Omnipresence, Veracity and Immutability. As trichotomous true humanity with human body, soul and spirit, he was minus the Old Sin Nature. For the last 3 hours of his crucifixion he accepted the imputation and judgment of all human sins in his humanity and DIED a Substitutionary Spiritual Death for them and when this process was completed he DIED
a physical death by relinquishing his Human Spirit to God the Father and his Soul to God the Holy Spirit. Obviously Deity cannot die either spiritually or physically being sovereign and not subject to anyone or anything and because of being Eternal life and Absolute Omnipotent power and as a result of being Immutable none of this can change.

Immutability, as an integral part of God’s essence, is the basis for all scientific phenomena.
The only reason the law of gravity continues to operate is simply because of the Immutability of God. Divine Faithfulness is the sole basis for all of the “laws” of science which in fact are LAWS of GOD. The universe follows a pattern, not because science says so but because God, the one who created it, is faithful in keeping it that way. In other words, scientific laws simply reflect the Absolute Faithfulness of God. Every scientific text is a fantastic treatise on the Immutability and resultant Faithfulness of God. Known scientific laws depend entirely on the Faithfulness of God which is based on the Omnipotence, Immutability, Veracity and Integrity of The Lord Jesus, The Christ, the creator. Every text and every discovery of the pattern of the universe is therefore a treatise on His faithfulness.
Immutability in Action
The unchanging nature of scientific phenomenon as noted in ancient historical discoveries!
• Static Electricity (Jer 10:13)
• The Earth Is Spherical (Is 40:22, Prov 8:27)
• The Earth Rotates on its Axis (Luke 17:31-36)
• Air Has Weight (Job 28:25)
• Winds Have Circuits (E ccl 1:6-7 )
▪ The principle of evaporation and precipitation
• Radiation and Polarization of Lights (Ps 65:8)
• Messages Sent by Lightning (Job 38:35)
• The Circulation of the Blood (Eccl 12:6)
• Quarantine for Communicable Diseases (Lev 13:45-46)
Immutability & Love
God never changes; His Love, as His Motivation, never changes, therefore, God has Impersonal
– Unconditional Love toward all creatures. Consequently, with or without an object, God’s love, both Personal and Impersonal – Unconditional, never changes, increases, or decreases and is totally stable. Because the Trinity has perfect Virtue, Integrity and Immutability the believer has this perfect, stabilized, structure of love available to him in the Power System of God, the Divine Dynasphere.
Immutability & Grace
Immutability means that God cannot ever under any circumstances or for any reason change.
Therefore, God keeps His word and this is why the Policy of Grace is so very important for the believer to understand. Under the principles and policy of the Grace Plan of God, Page #119 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
EVERYTHING depends on who and what God is, and GOD NEVER CHANGES. A primary example of the immutability and consistency of God is that Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God in every dispensation, throughout all of Human History, is always the same, for God is consistent and His immutability demands consistency. (Rom 10:1-8) Grace is the Policy and Plan of God regarding his creation and there can be no change, variation or shifting, no mutation in God’s Grace Plan. The Grace Plan of God was established in its totality in Eternity Past and it was put into the Divine Decree in its totality making it unchangeable reality for all time and all of Human History. The Grace Plan of God WILL be completed as a DEMONSTRATION of the consistency of the character of God in all of its actions whether they are Blessing or the provision of Divine Discipline. Satan should have understood this when he attempted to revolt against God. The fact that God allowed the Appeal of Satan at the Angelic Conflict Trial was only to provide the DEMONSTRATION of his consistent character to ALL
creation and NOT to give Satan a modicum of a chance to prove his position. Satan cannot
WIN the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial, the entirety of the Plan of God was laid out in Eternity Past and PUT into the Immutable Divine Decree and it WILL end badly for Satan and any
creatures who CHOOSE to follow his Plan instead of the Grace Plan of God.

Understanding the Integrity of God
The Integrity of God is the mechanism for orientation of God to his creation and the point of focus in the orientation of creatures, especially man in Human History, to God. Within the realm of the functions of the Essence of God, The Love of God is the expression of and
expressed according to the Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God, the foundation of the Love of God. In conjunction with the Sovereignty of God it
motivated and initiated the development of the Grace Policy of God for creation in total coordination specifically with the Veracity, Omniscience and Immutability of God along with the entirety of the rest of the Essence of God. Through which Grace policy the Love of God and Sovereignty of God in total coordination with the whole Essence of God motivates and is Page #121 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
expressed or demonstrated through the potentially polar opposite functions of the Justice of God toward creation. This occurs in such a way that it is always totally compatible and aligned with the Grace of God which is derived directly, motivated by the Love of God, from the
Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God. In addition these
functions of the Justice of God are always, invariably, for the benefit of the recipient who has CHOSEN to be aligned with the Grace Plan of God, the Norms and Standards and Scale of
Values of the Righteousness of God. Therefore, in orienting to his Creatures, the Love of God is expressed according to the Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of the Righteousness of God through the Grace Policy of God by means of motivation from the Love of God of the
polar functions of the Justice of God always for the benefit of the Christian individually or collectively based on his alignment with the Grace Policy and Plan of God. This may then results in desirable, profitable, rewarding, refreshing, restorative blessing or undesirable, noxious, disadvantageous, adverse, disciplinary punishment. God’s Righteous Norms and Standards and Scale of Values are therefore expressed through the Love of God which in conjunction with the Sovereignty of God in coordination with the Omniscience, Veracity and Immutability of God, motivates the Justice of God to express the Grace Policy of God as polar functions of blessing or discipline to creation.
Understanding the Integrity of God
Therefore, Integrity must be understood in terms of truthfulness, dependability, and reliability.
Being Perfect God, having Perfect Integrity, demands integrity in the believer, which is developed from the imputed Absolute Righteousness of God Himself PLUS a saturation of Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the Right Lobe of the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul, and He condemns lack of this which is maladjustment to His imputed Righteous Norms and Standards and Scale of Values. God in his Grace Plan and under his Grace Policy provides all that His integrity demands from the human race, leaving man NO EXCUSE for failing to enter and execute the Protocol Plan of God.
Therefore, this Absolute Attribute of God, Integrity, is composed of the functions of the Relative Attributes of the Love of God, the Righteousness of God and the Justice of God. The Integrity of God, when related to or orienting to man, involves Divine Motivation from the Love of God, compliance with the Divine Norms and Standards and Scale of Values, the Principles of Integrity in the Righteousness of God and Divine Action or Function of Integrity from the Justice of God. God is not arbitrary in any way because Integrity demands integrity; Righteousness demands Righteousness and Justice demands Justice. God’s Immutable nature
cannot change, therefore, that which is contrary to the standards and values of His Righteousness must be punished or disciplined, and that which is in compliance with and
adjusted to the standards and values of His Righteousness must be blessed or rewarded, both through the function of His Justice. This is the primary issue in the Demonstration of God in this Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial which is Human History. His penalties are not vindictive but vindicative so that with any production derived from Evil as Sin, Crime or Human Effort Good, there is unchangeable condemnation and judgment. His blessings are not arbitrary but Page #122 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents objective so that Production derived from Grace as Divine Good, results in Escrow Super & Ultra Super – Grace Blessings for time and Surpassing – Grace Decorations, Blessings and
Rewards for Eternity. Therefore, based on this perfect Grace Plan derived from His perfect Integrity and revealed as His GRACE policies, God is proven to be Absolute in His consistency.
In Himself, God’s spirituality or personality is supreme, but in relationship to man, Integrity, His Love, Righteousness and Justice, is supreme.
The Absoluteness of the Integrity of God
God is, always has been and always will be, Absolute Perfect Integrity from eternity past. (Ex
15:11, Ex 19:10-16, Is 6:3) Man’s relationship to God comes on the basis of the Righteousness of God. Man must adjust to the Standards and Values Righteousness and orient to the functions of the Justice of God NOT ever to the Love of God. Integrity, in the Protocol Plan of God, is required of believers. (2Cor 7:1, 1Thes 3:13, 1Thes 4:7) God’s Integrity is not maintained by His Sovereign Will but it is part of His immutable self. The being of God cannot be better or worse because God is eternal, immutable, unalterable, an absolute being who is eternally consistent. The Integrity of God includes the perfect Absolute Love of God which is the Motivation for all that God does. It also includes perfect Absolute Righteousness and Absolute Justice, which are the perfection of the standards, values and functions of his Integrity. (Lev 11:44-45, Deut 32:4, 1John 2:29, Ex 15:11, Ex 19:10-16, Is 6:3) Therefore, the Integrity of God equals motivation from the Love of God, direction and regulation from the Righteousness of God and execution or function from the Justice of God. Consequently, God cannot have a relationship with any creature where less than perfect standards and values from perfect righteousness is involved. Before God can have a relationship with any creature He must get the approval from his Righteous Standards in order that his perfect Justice can function toward them at all times. Because God is Immutable His Integrity is therefore absolutely unchangeable and incorruptible. As a result of the perfection of the Sovereignty of God and the Absolute nature of the standards and values of the Righteousness of God, His decisions are always perfect with regard to the functions emanating from his Justice. The Righteousness of God cannot be wrong, it is the perfect Norms and Standards and Scale of Values of GOD and the Justice of God cannot be unfair because it can only function with the approval of the Righteousness of God. The point is what the Righteousness of God demands
and Justice of God must execute based on motivation from the Love of God according to the
Grace Policy of God. In addition, God’s sense of humor, which is clearly rarely understood by man, is also perfect, and there must be some amusement in heaven concerning the things man constantly fails to understand. The advantage in the Plan of God to believers comes in adjusting to the Righteousness of God and properly orienting to the Justice of God first at the very moment of making a decision for Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God because there can be no advantages in life for anyone unless they are related to the Integrity of God.
The Absolute and Infinite Integrity of God acting toward others is totally and completely dependent on compliance with the perfect Standards and Values of the Righteousness of God to Page #123 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
engage functions from the Justice of God. Therefore, God cannot be arbitrary in any way because Righteousness demands Righteousness, Justice demands Justice and therefore, Integrity demands Integrity. God’s nature, his character or Essence cannot change, He being Immutable, therefore, man must change to comply with the perfection of the Standards and Values of the Righteousness of God. God must demand Integrity, therefore, from the motivation of his Love He must bless compliance with his Absolute Righteous Standards and Values and punish violation of any because of involvement in Evil as Sin, Crime or Human Good. His penalties are not vindictive, they are vindicating to His essence and person and designed to encourage the individual believer to return to and remain within his perfect Plan. His disciplinary pressures and penalties directed toward the unbeliever are designed specifically to attempt to orient him to the Grace Policy and Plan of God in order that he might acquire the contentment and security available to him within it. With the infinite variety of functions available under Evil there is unchangeable condemnation, judgment and sentencing as a result of any violation of the Standards and Values of the Righteousness of God which comes to the individual through the Justice of God based on the motivation from the Love of God. However, as impossible as the standards of God may seem to be, under his policy of Grace, God provides for mankind, as a result of his choosing to make Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God, that which is needed to fulfill all that He demands.
The Virtue of God
Virtue is defined as:
• An advantage or benefit
• The general quality of Goodness in a person
• Honesty
• Uprightness
• Integrity
• Honor
The source of the Virtue of God is the Integrity of God. The Power System of God, the Divine Dynasphere, requires that the believer recognize and begin at least to understand the Virtue of God and then realize that for him to even begin to function within the Power System of God he must produce Virtue First. The Love of God within the Trinity is based on the perfect Virtue of both the Recipient and the one Loving. So is the Love of God for Mankind based on the perfect virtue of the one loving and also for the Christian being loved especially those who have reached Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God and developed to a maximum level personal Virtue. Perfect Eternal Virtue results from Perfect Eternal Love combined with Perfect Eternal Righteousness and Justice. Therefore, the Love of God results from the interactions within the Integrity of God producing the Virtue of God. Therefore, God’s Virtue is not a relative factor, based on His external relationships but an absolute one based totally on his internal character or essence.

The Integrity of God has always existed in a state of absolute and total perfection. Therefore there is nothing that imperfect man can add or detract from the Integrity of God. There is nothing man can do or fail to do to cancel the Integrity of God. There is nothing man can think, say or do to compromise the Integrity of God. There is no point in either angelic or human history where the Integrity of God is or ever can be compromised or gain anything from man’s personality or self-righteousness or system of human efforts. No one can establish or promote God’s Righteousness, therefore, no one can add anything to the Integrity of God. The working part of the Integrity of God is Justice. Therefore, God’s Justice gets all the credit and does all the work. God’s Justice judged, condemned and sentenced all human sins when they were imputed by God the Father to The Lord Jesus, The Christ on the cross and then implemented the sentence as Spiritual Death in substitution for man so that this is the basis for the potential for mankind to gain eternal salvation. ALL of the work in the Power System of God, the Protocol Plan of God, was, still is and always will be, accomplished by God, NEVER
by the human efforts of man.
The point of orientation for man with God is the Holiness or Integrity of God. The Absolute Righteousness, the Point of Reference and the Absolute Justice, the perfect function, are the two divine attributes of the Integrity of God driven by the motivation from the Love of God which influence all of God’s functions toward man, especially believers. (Is 6:3) The Integrity of God is not a respecter of persons. So great is the Integrity of God, so perfect, so stabilized by His Immutability, so powerful from His Omnipotence, that it is impossible for God to be disappointed in any relationship He may have with the individual believer. No believer can make God hate him, he cannot make God angry or disappointed. (Ps 33:4-5) The Integrity of God is infinite, absolute, and eternal; (Ps 111:1-4, Ps 111:7-8, Ps 111:10) it is not the mere absence of Evil, but the sum total of His perfection and infinity. Therefore, God’s Integrity is maintained by coordinated functions of his entire perfect Essence and it is, in effect, simply part of God’s unchangeable self.
It is important for the believer to understand clearly that the Integrity of God is not maintained by the self righteousness of man. The Integrity of God is maintained by the totality of His perfect Essence and that is His Holiness directed toward other beings. Neither the Love nor any other aspect of the Integrity of God is maintained by the Sovereignty of God, although they always work in unison with it. Therefore, when the Integrity of God rejects the believer’s failures under Evil, He despises the resultant demonization of the believer within the Cosmic Dynasphere system, so that he is required by the Standards and Values of His perfect Righteousness to then administer Divine Discipline punishment from His Justice. All the while, the Love of God toward this believer remains constant and desires only that he return to the Power System of God.
Though infinitely Holy, having perfect Integrity, God maintains a relation to fallen creatures; not a quiescent aloofness from them, but a vital, nearness to them. During the Christian’s passage through the “death shadowed valley” he cannot fear anything about his death
“because you (The Lord Jesus, The Christ) are with me”. God’s Integrity, His holiness is not Page #125 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
engendered by a sustained effort or preserved by segregation from other beings. The Holiness or Integrity of God of God is intrinsic, uncreated, and nontarnishable; it is observable in every divine attitude and action. It embraces not only His devotion to that which is laid out as His Grace Policy, but is also the very basis and force of His rejection of all of that which is the Evil policy of Satan. Therefore, there is in Divine Holiness or Integrity, the capacity for response toward others from Justice which is both positive and negative, based on the motivation of Divine Love under the Absolute Standards and Values of Righteousness. The issue is obvious, is the God, who inflicts condemnation and judgment on the unbeliever, unrighteous, unfair, or unjust? The correct understanding is Absolutely No! On the contrary, the function of the Absolute Justice of God in condemnation is the direct result of the Demand of the Absolute Righteous Standards and Values of God and confirms and strengthens the perfection of the Integrity of God. Is the God who provides blessing for mankind under His Grace Policy and for believers who advance in the Grace Plan of God and reach Maturity
Adjustment to the Justice of God unfair or unjust? Again, unequivocally Absolutely NO!
There can be no blessing to mankind apart from the Integrity or Holiness of God under the
Grace Plan of God, motivated and developed by the Love of God and Sovereignty of God.
Motivated by the Absolute Love of God, He provided systems to ensure the protection and
preservation of the Human Race AND a potential for man to reconstruct a proper relationship with Him, receive unimaginable profitable blessings and live with him Eternally.
In conjunction with the Integrity of God, the Omnipotence of God the Father judged the sins of the world as he sequentially imputed them to The Lord Jesus, The Christ while he was on the cross. The source of this judgment was the Justice of God the Father, based on the violation by any sin of His Absolute Righteousness. The power and authority for the judgment of all human sins in Christ on the cross came from the Omnipotence of God the Father under the Authority of God the Father as Sovereign of Creation. The motivation behind this was from the Love of God as part of the Holiness or Integrity of God. While man rationalizes his personal sins and disobedience to the Plan of God, the Integrity of God, because of the Absolute Nature of the Standards and Values of the Righteousness of God, cannot ignore these things. This results in the point of contact with God since the Fall of Adam, being ⅓ of Divine Integrity, the Justice of God. Grace, as the Policy and Plan of God for creation, is the overt manifestation of the Integrity of God, Divine Virtue, developed as a result of interaction of the Love of God with the Sovereignty of God, and including the power, the mercy, the compassion and the patience of God. Grace is the result of Divine Motivation from the Absolute Love of God combined with the Sovereign Decisions of God aligned with the Veracity, Omniscience and Immutability of God. Therefore, under the Grace Plan and Policy of God the source of all blessing, testing, divine discipline, prosperity, the source of the entire Christian way of life, is the Integrity of God. Logistical Grace support by which every member of the Royal Family of God in this Church Age is kept alive, in order to have equal privilege and equal opportunity for the execution of the Protocol Plan of God, is provided by the Integrity of God based on the Impersonal – Unconditional Love of God toward ALL Christians.
The way of peace for mankind is a relationship with the Integrity of God. This relationship is established through Adjustment to the Justice of God under three categories:
Page #126 of 430 - Return to the Table of Contents
• Salvation adjustment to the Justice of God
◦ Only attainable by Nonmeritorious FAITH alone in the Substitutionary Spiritual Death
of The Lord Jesus, The Christ alone.
• Rebound adjustment to the Justice of God
◦ Based on the Substitutionary Spiritual Death of The Lord Jesus, The Christ for all sins
under the principles of 1John 1:9
• Maturity adjustment to the Justice of God
◦ Based on consistent Post Salvation Epistemological Rehabilitation from daily function
under the Grace Apparatus for Perception the mechanism for Perception, Cognition,
Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible Doctrine.
Relationship with the Integrity of God means first of all Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God, then fellowship with God through consistent function when needed of the Rebound procedure, then exercising proper priorities to reach Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God.
