The Devil Who Thwarts The Plan Of God by live4dgospel(m): 9:39am On Oct 30, 2020
God >> Humans

"Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” (Genesis 2:16-17).

Satan >> Humans

"You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” (Genesis 3:4-5).

When one keeps abusing opium, he will die in the end. Religion is an opium to those who fall into it. It is perhaps even more addictive than any drug. To believe in a religion called Christianity, one has to believe even more, strive more, serve more, live more virtuously, and sin no more. It entails an endless series of more and more requirements, suffocating its followers till they are dead. If one is virtuous, he has to be even more virtuous, and when he becomes more virtuous, he still has to be more virtuous than this; and so mankind strives ceaselessly to reach perfection, only to die without reaching it.
This shot of religion is such a deadly shot. Who, then, made the substance of this injection called religion? It’s the Devil who made it. It’s the Devil who administered this shot of lies, saying, “You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil,”(Genesis 3:4-5)
Everyone who received this shot tempted by the promise of “becoming like God” all reached death. Falling into sin, he became a sinner; trying to escape from this sin on his own, he suffered; desperate to forget this suffering, he took a drug called religion; and the moment he got addicted, he mistook it to mean that he was somehow freed from sin. You must realize that it is for not believing in Jesus Christ and rejecting Him that one is cast into hell. Yet Satan has injected such a toxic shot that many people remain unable to break free. However, even those who were injected with this shot can now be saved by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit given by Jesus Christ.

God >> Humans

“Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption."(Hebrews 9:12).

Satan >> Humans

"You are not saved once and for all but you are saved gradually if only you do good before men and God and offer prayer of repentance daily"


In Old Testament, God gave Israelites the Tabernacle through which they could atone their sins. In the Tabernacle we have the Holy Place and the Most Holy place, the high priest must enter the Most Holy place once in a year and must enter with blood of the sacrificial animal. He must have passed the yearly sins of Israel to the head of the sacrificial animal through the laying on of hands, killed it and took its blood to the Most Holy place. There was a veil that divided the Holy Place and the Most Holy(Exodus 26:33), this the same veil that tore in two when Jesus gave up His ghost (Matthew 27:50-51). It tells us that, the sins that separate us from God have now been eternally removed and thus the gate of heaven is left open to the people of faith.

God >> Humans

"This is He who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth."(1 John 5:6).

Satan >> Humans

"Jesus came by blood alone".

Satan has committed everyone on the blood of Jesus hiding His baptism from them. Christians being misguided by false miracles of Satan even think there is special power in shouting "the blood of Jesus". Is the blood of Jesus for executing signs and wonders or escaping from dangers? No! The blood of Jesus is for remission of sins, and that is the reason God allowed His Son to shed all His blood. "And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission."
(Hebrews 9:22)

From the day Roman emperor Constantine dreamt of winning battle after taking symbol of cross to war, and actually won battles by using the symbol of cross. He made Christian religion a state religion, from then on Christians instead of facing persecution from political power of Rome began to meddle politics with the Word of God bringing Christianity went into a downward spiral. Gradually Satan successfully removed the baptism of Jesus from the faith of Christianity leaving them with the incomplete gospel of blood alone, for them. We must now return to the original gospel of the water and the Spirit as Jesus taught Nicodemus.
Water means John the Baptist transferred all our sins to the head of Jesus during baptism and blood means Jesus paid the price of the sins on the cross with His blood. The same way Israelites in Old Testament would lay their hands on the sacrificial animal transferring their sins to the animal before killing it and sprinkling its blood.(Leviticus 1:1-5, 16:20-23)

God >> Humans

"Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin."(Romans 3:20)

Satan >> Humans

"You surely will be justified by the law if you strive to keep the law perfectly."

Christians try endlessly to be justified by the law only to die in the end without being justified. I heard that John Calvin left many prayers of forgiveness in his deathbed. Why? Because he has finally realized that he cannot be justified by the law. People become honest when they face death.
We are justified by faith in the baptism of Jesus and His blood. Has anyone, from Moses to David to Christians today, be justified by the law? No, not one! Why do religionists stubbornly insist on being justified by the law? It is because Satan has injected them with the lie that they would "become like God"(Genesis 3:5)

God >> Humans

"I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.”(Galatians 2:21)

Satan >> Humans

"You will surely become righteous by obeying the law of God."

Christians seek to establish their righteousness setting outside the righteousness of God. Can they actually be righteous? No. Human righteousness lasts at a blink of an eye. Just like sun dried and exposed Adam and Eve's unclothedness in a matter of minutes when they made coverings for themselves by sewing fig leaves. God's righteousness is everlasting just like God made tunics of skin for Adam and Eve for covering.



Must we listen to God or Satan? Of course, we must listen to and believe only in the Word of God.

What did the Serpent do?
The serpent came between man and God but man was the God to whom God gave the direct order not to eat the fruit of the tree. So, assuming the blame lies entirely on the serpent whom you assume here to be Satan in order to further the inane claim that Satan has power and authority to thwart God's plan fails.

"So the LORD God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust All the days of your life."

What does God mean by saying "Because you have done this"?

As I said, the serpent came between Adam and God, and so was punished for it.

Christians must constantly flee from the deceitfulness of the Devil by only believing in the Word of God.

Anyone who has never changed his core beliefs or religion is yet to die to his old self. Dying to old self is prerequisite to a new birth. A seed has to be buried to the ground before it can germinate. Many atheist and agnostic are dead to their old self. They are one step ahead than most of us who are yet to question our belief. The second step is observation. Not one created by someone else but one based on his own seeking and experience. A born again person does not take things because it is repeated by many or asserted by majority or written in a holy book. He listens to all side and filters them based on his reason and experience.


Born again persons are original in thoughts and deed. He is saperated from the mass . To be born again comes with a price of violating recognises order. This lead to grave consequences including death .

You have all of conflations in this good post of yours, so I will just cut to the chase.

1/ What is the first pronounced clearly and distinctively recorded plan of God?
2a/ What in one word that best encapsulates the essence of its meaning, is religion that is pure, true and one that God finds no fault in or flaw with?
2b/ Whats the biblical distinction between religion and faith?
2c/ Please give me biblical instances backed up with scriptural verse(s) pertaining to what to the best of your understanding and knowledge are examples of religion and faith
3/ As regarding your "The Devil Who Thwarts The Plan Of God" click bait caption, would you agree and accept that Satan is used by God, so for all things to work together for good and according to God's purpose. Pharaoh was used by God, so for all things to work together for good and according to God's purpose. King Saul was made acceptable to be used by God, so for all things to work together for good and according to God's purpose. Judas Iscariot was made acceptable to be used by God, so for all things to work together for good and according to God's purpose. Hitler was made acceptable according to God's election, to be used by God, so for all things to work together for good and according to God's purpose. Abacha was made acceptable according to God's election and was used by God, so for all things to work together for good and according to God's purpose, hmm?
4/ After answering #3 above, do you still reckon that devil is capable of preventing God from making a reality of, achieving, accomplishing His original purpose for Man (i.e. the human being race), hmm?

1a/ What in one word that best encapsulates the essence of its meaning, is religion that is pure, true and one that God finds no fault in or flaw with?
1b/ Whats the biblical distinction between religion and faith?
1c/ Please give me biblical instances backed up with scriptural verse(s) pertaining to what to the best of your understanding and knowledge are examples of religion and faith
2a/ How many biblically recorded times did Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ teach and preach "Born Again" to?
2b/ If you answer to #2a above, is once, then please give a credible explanation for why such an extremely small number of time

"Truly, truly, I say to you, unless the grain of wheat, having fallen into the ground, should die, it abides alone; but if it should die, it bears much fruit." so says God, in the person of Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ in John 12:24. When you die to self, there is no grave consequence, but when one, without permission eats of the TKGE, then the one, defo would by all means, experience a different kind of death and such that has grave consequences
Re: The Devil Who Thwarts The Plan Of God by live4dgospel(m): 11:53am On Nov 08, 2020
Together let's flee from the Devil who is challenging God my mixing God's Word with lies.
For the Serpent said “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?” But what God said was "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat"

That is how Satan twists the Word of God to kill those who believe in his lies.
