Slapping God in His face pt 1

June 16, 2011

From our father Adam comes an action from our Forefather…

Genesis 2:15 ( KJV ) 15And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

Out of all that we do in all of history, of all the great men to the poorest man these two acts of action have not changed.

To “dress it” and “keep it” are the two acts of action from Adam to you that have not changed from its purpose for mankind. It does not matter what you or any man does within this Earth, it would not be outside of these two acts of action. The problem is, Lucifer is influencing all to go against these two acts of action that have a purpose of being Godly.

Dress it… Within the military, we receive a jacket. This jacket is like all others within the military, but one big difference. Each soldier must dress their jacket to the unit that they are in. They must dress it with the rank they are currently hold. The must dress it with “tabs” such as Airborne, Special Forces, Combat Medic, and Recruiter. The “tabs” tells all what kinds of special training you have without you having to hand out a piece of paper each time.

Within all of the military, the color of the jacket and the design of the jacket might be different, but they all dress it. Likewise, God took Adam from the Eastern part of the garden and placed him back into the center to “dress it.” The “dress” means to mark it with the identity of Godliness. Or in other words to keep it as God is… Holy and beautiful. The “it” means not just the garden but the whole Earth. God formed the Earth and formed everything living in it and He wants Adam (mankind) to dress this Earth beautifully and Holy.

When you walk down the street and you throw trash on the ground is when you are not acting in the likeness of God but of Lucifer. When you keep your house trashy, you are not acting in the likeness of God but of Lucifer. When you kill the animals for no reason, when you smoke, when you take drugs, when you work for a company that is polluting the air or the water or the ground… you are not acting with the dominion that God gave to mankind to dress it. You are acting as the one who is going against God, Lucifer. You also do this when you trash this Earth or look away from God. In fact, you are slapping God in HIS face.

The Earth is falling apart, has fallen apart… your streets are falling apart, your homes are falling apart all because you did not take care of this Earth. Your motive is not to dress this Earth, or to make it beautiful and Holy, but of money. You seek money and Lucifer is providing it as long as you keep this Earth looking like sh*t. Your actions are also slapping God in His face and He turned His back to us all.

When He destroys this Earth, do not think it is because of His will. He will destroy this Earth because you first let it be destroyed.

How can all these within the “church” walk out the doors to see the stealing, killing and destruction within our neighborhoods and do nothing? Do you openly worship a god, just to walk out with your eyes’ closed? Or, are you saying to God, “I do not give a sh*t about the grass, or the unselfish killing of the animals, because I just care about ME!”

How can you think you are a representative of God when you cannot even do the first works? IF you are a representative of God, then start with the first act… Dress this Earth. Take back the neighborhoods… one block at a time… and dress it with the markings of God. Tell Satan I am kicking your a** out and God is moving in… and yes, you might have to fight the Beast of a whore, but when God comes down he will see. He will see you did your first purpose. He will see you did His will.

Until then, look what we did to this Earth. Look at what you did, you did not give a damn…

All of mankind is to first “dress it.” What are you doing?
