Make Ready, Prepare For

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

(Matthew 25:41) KJV

Hell had previously been prepared for Satan and the rebellious angels who were cast out of heaven, but hell began at the fall of man. This means that it’s impossible for Satan to have been in the garden of Eden to beguile Eve.

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) propose that the serpent in the garden of Eden wasn’t Satan but a bipedal vegetarian reptile, based on interpreting the curse on it to mean that its physical characteristics were different before the curse and after.

We all have the same evidence. Our choice of paradigm determines what we think it’s evidence of.

And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

(Genesis 3:14-15) KJV

How can a snake be cursed to be limbless if it doesn’t have limbs? Obviously the serpent in the garden of Eden wasn’t a snake. We also made the case that it wasn’t Satan either. You may not agree with our deductions. It’s okay, they’re Biblically accurate so we’re fine with them. You may want to check your theology, it’s probably been derived within the mainstream science paradigm (SciPop).

Faith is believing in something that you can’t see, because of evidence.

Curses and Timing

Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

(Genesis 3:16) KJV

On July 2 we proposed that the curse on women to have to suffer painful labor in childbirth means that Revelation chapter 12, the war in heaven, had to happen after the fall of man. It can’t be before it, which is necessary in any theology which puts Satan in the garden of Eden.

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

(Revelation 12:1-2) KJV

How could the heavenly woman in Revelation chapter 12 be travailing in birth if Eve hadn’t been cursed yet? More to the point, why was she even pregnant if the curse of death hadn’t come upon the world? Reproduction isn’t necessary if we live forever. That’s painful logic folks. Sorry to have to do this to you, but someone had to.

For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

(Matthew 22:30) KJV

We have some interesting things to consider and by so doing we find another reason why we can confidently say that Satan couldn’t have anything to do with the fall of man in the garden of Eden.
