TEXT: "Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God."-James 4:4

The whole World is the seven Days of the Week. And each Day of the Week is one thousand years, 2 Peter 3:8. Another word for the World is the Week. However, from the creation of the whole World unto this day, we have spent two Weeks and two Days, meaning we ate in the Third Day of the Week. This means invariably that there has been there Worlds, Hebrews 11:3. And to put the record straight, we are in the Third World.

The seven Days of the First Week of creation, including the created things, Genesis 1; 2:1-3, make up the First World. The First World began from Genesis 1:5, the First Day of the creation of light, and ended in Genesis 2:1-3, the Seventh Day, when God rested from all his work. The Second World began in Genesis 2:7, when God formed man, and it ended in Revelation 20:7. We are currently in the Third World.

Furthermore, in the First World, the First Day began and ended in Genesis 1:1-5. The Second Day began and ended in Genesis 1:6-8. The Third Day began and ended in Genesis 1:9-13. The Fourth Day began and ended in Genesis 1:14-19. The Fifth Day began and ended in Genesis 1:20-25. The Sixth Day began and ended in Genesis 1:26-31. And finally, on the Seventh Day, God rested from all his work which he had made, Genesis 2:1-3. All these make up the First World. However, no country or nation was ever mentioned in the First World.

In addition, the Second World, as I earlier said, began when man was formed, Genesis 2:7. And just as in the First World, the Days of the Second World began from Genesis 2:7. This is or was the First Day, and it ended in Genesis 5:27, during the time of Methuselah. The Second Day began in Genesis 5:28, during the time of Lamech, and it ended in Genesis 11:26, during which time Abram(Abraham) was born. The Third Day began in Genesis 12:1-4, when God called Abraham, and it ended in Exodus 1:1-5, when the children of Israel entered Egypt.

The Fourth Day began in Exodus 1:6, after the third generation of Abraham has died, and the children of Israel were afflicted for four hundred years, Genesis 15:13-16. Moses was born during this period, and he led the children of Israel and out of Egypt. The Fourth and the Fifth Days recorded the activities of Moses, and the activities of the kings and prophets of Israel. The Fifth Day, however, ended in Ezra 6:13-15, during the reign of Darius II, when the temple, the house of God was completed.

The Sixth Day began after the completion of the temple. After four hundred years Jesus Christ was born, Matthew 1:18-25. And from the completion of the house of God to the birth of Jesus Christ took a period of four hundred years. Some scholars call this, the inter testamental period, that is, the silence period of God, which is between the Old Testament and the New Testament. Moreover, the Sixth and the Seventh Days recorded the activities of Jesus Christ and his disciples.

However, the Seventh Day ended in Revelation 20:7. All the countries or nations mentioned in the Bible, such as Israel, Amalek, Philistine, Cyprus, Malta, Greece, Egypt, Arabia, Italy, Spain, Babylon, Macedonia, Ethiopia, India, Syria, etc. These countries or nations and many others in the Bible, all belong to the Second World. They are called Second World countries.

Today, we are in the Third World. And the First Day of this Third World was the first one thousand years, which began from the year 1, and ended in the year 1000. The Second Day began in the year 1001, and ended in the year 2000. The Third Day, which we are currently in, began in the year 2001, and will end in the year 3000. The Fourth Day will begin in the year 3001, and will end in the year 4000. The Fifth Day will begin in the year 4001, and will end in the year 5000. The Sixth Day will begin in the year 5001, and will end in the year 6000. The Seventh Day will begin in the year 6001, and will end in the year 7000, which will also end the Third World. The next World will be the Fourth World, which will be a perfect World, and the counting continues...

Some scholars, however, categorise countries or nations today into first world or second world or even third world countries. And one of the yardsticks, for classifying these countries, is whether they are developed or developing or underdeveloped. The developed countries are classified as first world or second world, and while the developing countries are classified as third world countries.

But, my question is, which country in the world today has stopped developing? None! All the countries of the world are still developing. Countries such as the USA, Canada, UK, France, Germany, China, Japan, Australia, Brazil, Argentina, and including the countries of Africa, etc. These countries and many more, not mentioned, are still developing. They are all Third World countries, not only because they are still developing, but because they are the countries of this present Third World!

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
