(Luke 10:16; Luke 12:12) The apostle John…

In the book of Exodus, God is the essential worker. The nature and intent of that divine work set the agenda for Moses’ work and through him, the work of God’s people.

optimistic, and regardless of the circumstances, he will not rely on the government, even if Collective 0-0009 states that his box “must be destroyed” (74) and there is a threat he will be lashed “‘till there is nothing left under the lashes” (72) or delivered “to the World Council itself and let their will be done” (72).

The call to biblical proclamation begins with a call to hear. Christian preaching finds its root in the proposition that God Almighty has spoken. Therefore, as in Deuteronomy 6:4-7, the one who wishes to communicate this message must first and foremost hear the message from God. “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart.…

That’s what happened in the garden of Eden. But prior to this in-cident occurring Lucifer, was expelled or as we like to say kicked out of heaven because he wanted to be God. He was created by God and he wanted to be God to be worshipped as God was being worshipped by the angels he had created. But God is God and he will not share his glory with another.
