The History of the Battle

226 is better to have little in the aligned with God damn mind should be at odds with his plan. God created us shall nevertheless demonstrate to the great glory. This is the alternative with Dr. Tony Evans, author, speaker, senior pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas Texas and president of the urban alternative. The history of mankind is a history played with pride, power struggles and treachery. Dr. Evan says it's a reflection of the spiritual warfare that's been going on behind the scenes from long before humans took the stage right now he is your to chronicle the events that have played a role in spiritual warfare and explain what that means for us today. Let's join all God's angels spirit being in God's spirit drink bring himself to a bright light, bright light, but I liked because of being is imaginable that she consult with all you see in particular was loose, shining one introduced to him 28.

One of the passages spiritual battle that occurred when I went back in the angelic ground beef creation before creation really when God simply had angelic host introduced to the king of Tyra. This man by God and Moses but himself because people that will control like evil will excuse you right behind me pulling some string king was just the same thing with me here as we go through this being is magnificent with chapter 28, for example 14 you going to want all of them what God told him with a holy mountain becomes important. Verse 13 the name of this mountain, God surrounding it the name of it was worth 13 and all. What a sight. He was that is according to verse 15 until unrighteousness was found in you. First problem perfectly created being, with unrighteousness being found problem is created perfectly in the garden being a perfect being, it seemed like a contradiction perfection, but that something will in all God to greet me.

That could never become perfect re-create himself God could re-create himself.1.create a perfect day all apartment buildings shows what relate to choice, not by their creative.

So what God and all the angels what he put in show choice because God could not re-create himself. That's one thing God can do what God can do, make between that you cannot re-duplicate himself.given the choice, that is to serve him by choice, not simply by mandate gobbled the time because God wanted worship my willingness not worshiped by mandate only unrighteousness was found in this cherub now I will go today all the detail but just so you know the basis of it so I can make up a very important point here.

Just so you know the basis of it.

You are internally violent for 16 says and you soon that will I cast you down from the mountain. What made you 717 was limp because of your beauty you corrupted by reason of said you bad boy yelled looking God saw Jody ritually messed and well saw the question why God is pretty by myself and him will show to rebel against God with pride a plan of rebellion.

A coup d'état if you will in heaven and God not willing to share his glory, Satan and his host from because God will not have authority in his presence, and they were cast to a place called and sentenced God decides just checking want to happen to create your own place called hell. I was showing some strength to do that, you will see you experience you watch me unfold as that will demonstrate God is not to be trifled with. God create some angels units that Angel ability and strength experience.

The creature will trust God that won't trust God strike and shall say trust me out. So trust me, that would stop the full name and do some talking forms inside Davidson's David says in Psalm chapter 8 beginning with verse three describing if he looks up and and he's overwhelmed with the thought of God when I consider the happen but Mark not fingers the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained question, what is man that thou art my son of man Yet all the Bible say God's angels, God and its crown glory. The 6.this made Kim to rule have put in about God, the sacred home no not in God's way and God said all run down and do some gentrification working side and the birds not going to be leaving there were no birds come with birds casing. Stop moving all burst forth because God raised God's will, and it will see all of the fish of the water will run Michelle in spite of when the serpent comes up to the woman and says half God's. Satan wants his plan back and Adam and Eve back and guess what you and I are in the process of doing that God taken from Satan get back with me.

That's why God so when we read the Bible place because they were able choice of the week may mean it's that's why you before me, the Bible. First Peter 112 says and angels appearing down trying to stay may be able to follow with all of angels called demons.

God paralleled the exact situation with man that he had with Lucifer was created. A perfect being with choice, Adam was created a perfect beat choice of all the trees in the God you may freely one of the tree in the midst of a garden may not even lest you die. Why because I had to give you what I gave Satan in order for the battle would be even steep Adams Homestead was called Victor the 28th of Lucifer's Homestead was called to oversee all God's creation. All of God, man, oversee all of God's human creation.

What I'm telling you is what you're experiencing has to do was have nothing to do and that is God wanting to demonstrate it.

Now I know I know you have a question for question was why can't fully answer God is greater than Satan's a good right God. No, not that God in heaven know that most people make most people say when they say God's sake, created Satan in the same sentence with God is saying God was showing him some great you better. I am so great to get rid of you, but I am so great that I can take a less and by the way you like them.

I like to believe name of the life of a young shepherd boy named David story said he didn't know how to use all the fancy equipment that he couldn't even where the battle probably was the dog Serio six days with little country. God takes the last to embarrass the greater so what Paul said. Look at yourself.

Not many wines, not many noble, most of us don't have much to brag about God have taken the nothings of this world effectively know what I'm doing in a city boy with nothing to show but God reached down in the keyword grace password down there down there. That's when he talk school takes some mix take great Babylon. That's why the angelic conflict.

The keyword is grace go to the game.

There was another team coming to the would be boring and it would be life we need to see some resisting in order to appreciate God for think I could squash you will be no fun and sweet shop so that he gets more glory, Satan's spurned grace. Some theologians believe they will offer the opportunity for salvation private history and rejected at least the grace the Big Creek chilliness God is going to show them the glory of his grace.

When people yield to it. God allowed sin, although he doesn't call sin. Isaiah 45, seven, just as a composer of music may include discords in a song in order to create an overall God of the loud discord he allows sin, that grace may be greater reasoning that God wants to show with hatred of sin. She must show with justice he wants all of us to see this angelic conflict that he is a holy perfect God and he does charge sin. He wants us to see is with them. Ephesians 310 it says that God does what he does, so that the manifold with the may be made known to the angels and proceedings break config nothings and overcome something God also wants to demonstrate his power.

You don't know how oppositional is not what God wanted Pharaoh same principle of the paper Pharaoh you know just to show you some before I can okay let you see what I am because think about this destroyer you will feel it like I want you to feel. So,,, keep children between the rats and have a lot of God to demonstrate it to you. People see what when they live by grace. God not only did that anyone to demonstrate the key here is the key that love can only be expressed grace in order to simultaneously satisfy demand that love can only be expressed grace in order to simultaneously address of the map, don't you think God can't skip sin. Yet God loves you can't skip sin, and yet he loved me. How can he set us by his justice that monthly was sin and also satisfy blood he must have a plan of grace and so in grace. God is provided salvation for people, which means that he can justly deal with his holiness bottle thing Tom expressing his love and that of the manifold wisdom of God. God wanted to demonstrate that there is no life or meaning apart from when you walk out on God how bad things are when you walk God you walk down some people get mad now.

Like his words will be left will be nothing. She left me worse.

Your life is because there is no life or meaning apart from him, and finally God wanted to secure service out of love, not God didn't want people serving him just because he created them he was going to jump on is why he gave Adam the tree you love me enough to trust me enough to obey me or do you want to find your own way so below God created us to show that the lesser demonstrate to the greater glory Dr. Tony Evan encouraging you to trust God's power and presence, and do your part for the kingdom of God.
