THEY WANTED TO BECOME A GOD

Genesis 2:7 “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.”

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

Genesis 2:16-17 “And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. “

Genesis 2:18 “And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. “

Genesis 2:22″ And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. “

Genesis 2:25 “And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.”

Genesis 3:1-3 “Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. “

Genesis 3:4 “And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:”

Genesis 3:6-7 “And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.”

Genesis 3:11-12 “And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat? And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.”

Genesis 3:17 “And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;”

Genesis 3:19 “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. “

Genesis 3:20-24  “And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living. Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them. And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken. So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.”

WHO WAS THE SERPENT? LUCIFER

Psalms 104:4 “Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:”

Lucifer held the highest rank in God’s vast family of angels. Some of Lucifer’s names are Satan, the Devil, Serpent and Dragon. Remember Satan offered the whole world to Jesus, if Jesus would consent to bow to Satan. We all know that Jesus told Satan to get behind Him. You would think that the world already belonged to Jesus, because He is God’s Son and the creator. What Adam and Eve had to give up was authority over God’s creation. In other words Satan took over and plunged humanity into sin with more lies.

LUCIFER WAS JEALOUS OF GOD

Isaiah 14:12 “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!”

Geneva Bible: ” You who thought yourself most glorious and as it were placed in the heaven for the morning star that goes before the sun, is called Lucifer, to whom Nebuchadnezzar is compared.”

Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon in Daniel 3:15-19 “Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands? Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.”

Exodus 20:5-6 “Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.”

THE BOOK OF JOB: GOD REVEALS OUR COMMITMENT

Satan serves God until there is war in heaven three and a half years into the tribulation.

Job 1:1 “There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.” Job had ten children and was rich. Job sanctified his sons in case they sinned and offered burnt offering to the Lord.

Job 1:3 “His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.”

Job 1:6-8 “Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?”

What followed soon, messengers came to Job’s house and declared a number of events had befallen the animals and even his children. Everything had been killed.

Job 1:20-22 “Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, And said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.” God again called Satan to cause Job to be covered with boils

Job 3:11 “Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?” Job had a lot to say in expressing his sadness, anger and grief.

Job 3:25 “For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.”

Job 5:7-8 “Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward. I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:”

Job 5:17 “Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:” Satan isn’t mentioned again until Jesus begins His ministry written about in the New Testament. Satan’s name changes to the devil.

JESUS SHARES HOW WE CAN CONTROL THE DEVIL

Luke 4:6 “And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.”

John 8:44 “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” A third of the angels followed Lucifer and since angels are spirits they can enter human beings if they open themselves up by a antichristian behaviors. The apostle Paul warned us with this verse:

Ephesians 6:11,12 “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

Hebrews 2:13-15 “And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me. Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.”

2 Timothy 1:7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

1 Peter 5:8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:”

1 John 3:8 “He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”

1 John 3:10 “In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.”

Revelation 12:9 “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Speaking of the Antichrist who appears in Israel to finally achieve the peace agreement agreed to by all concerned, the following verse presents what the Dragon does with him.

John wrote in Revelation 13:1-5 “And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.” The forty and two month refer to the second part of the seven year Tribulation when people wish to die and can’t, it gets so hellish.

LUCIFER IS SET FREE FROIM GOD FOR ONE HOUR

2 Corinthians 11:14 “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.”

He reveals himself in Revelation 13:4-8 “And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

Revelation 13:15-18 “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”

Jesus returns with His Saints in person and takes over.

Revelation 20:2-3 “And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.”

Revelation 20:7-10 “And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”

Revelation 20:14-15 “And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”

ALL HAIL THE AI GOD?

Of course we can’t forget that the technocrats need their own religion and many will be deceived into this reality that they can get eternal life by receiving a permanent metal implant somewhere on their bodies and avoid judgment. In fact that is the promise already today, they can create life and eternal life.

People who are savvy in technology believe they will eventually become all-knowing like God. They call it superintelligence. Machines can get built by machines, they keep developing and they will get smarter than humans. If humans get reprogrammed they can access that intelligence.

Elon Musk Slams Talk Of Artificial Intelligent ‘gods’. He made another warning about artificial intelligence (AI). He said that people who talk of AI “gods” should not be allowed to develop such technology. Of people who are on the list should certainly not be allowed to develop superintelligence. He was referring to an article that said that an AI “god” could be developed by 2042.

2042 isn’t the case in China believers are bowing to an AI robot “god” already.

Elon Musk was referring to Anthony Levandowski, a former Google engineer who founded UBER, the self driving car.

Levandowski founded a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit religious group called “Way of the Future” and its mission is to “develop and promote” a “godhead” based on AI.

Vince Lynch, founder of IV.AI said that there is a commonality between religion and AI. and his company developed an AI system that could write new Bible verses.

A video by Cresham College titled ‘Artificial Intelligence and Religion’, we are told in ancient times Tibetans had mechanized systems that could turn out prayers not made by humans called Prayerwheels. They were turned by a stream.

In Wiener’s monograph (1961) he argued there is a cosmic evolutionary significance in self-replicating machines. These were now in principle possible and humans would then take on a key function of a God that makes things function in its own image. Evolution is just the mechanism for this…

In a 1966 paper on “Knowledge of God” claimed everything is alive and all is mind. The world in incomprehensible vs. science as knowing a comprehensible world. The whole universe is God (Pantheism).

A machine with God-like traditional properties is what they are talking about today. Knowing everything is a traditional property of God. He is omniscience. The internet knows all the facts but is not omniscience.

Consciousness is a problem for machines. The people who are developing robots with AI are worried that there will come a day when the robots will have their own consciousness. God has an awareness that encompasses all.

In what is called the Bostrom Problem, the benevolence of God vs. the machine: is the machine benign? Bostrom believes that superintelligence would destroy mankind. Humans thought their creator to be benign so why would superintelligence not continue that tradition?

Making humans better with puppets without consciousness brings people to perfection, a step toward God-likeness by definition. The idea making humans better using technology got us to transhumanism: perfect soldiers, smarter humans by means of brain upload and an immortal digital existence in an artificial environment. Modern transhumanism is a fusion of immortality, physical perfection and union with intelligent machines that do not have to die.

Kurzweil stated that intelligence that will emerge will continue to represent civilization and future machines will be human even if they are not biological.

Ishiguro’s double is a robot that looks like himself: a step to immortality?

Making gods? What did God have to say about that?

Exodus 20:4-6 “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.”

Acts 17:29, 31-32 “Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device. Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.”

MORMON’S PLAN IS TO BECOME A GOD

Knowing nothing about the church we joined in 1972 because they presented themselves as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

We soon found out that there were no Bible classes, reason being one would find out that there was a problem. In my case, I had disconnected from a church that was teaching occult doctrines. In other words I had learned previously about Freemasonry and their god was a male and female combination. That’s why Satan has boobs.

Believer’s fulfillment is to share the good news of eternal life. They long to help bring people to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. God promises to reward people for their successes.

Mormon leaders know that. They offer Baptism for the dead (i.e. any well known chancellor, president etc. heathen they know by name) and eternal marriage at the temples. To enter the temples one has to tithe 10% and then some of gross income and do their assignments diligently which means coming to all meetings, raising children to become missionaries across the world paid for by the parents.

The membership is told not to share any information of what is going on in the temples even their own families are not to be told.

The temple marriage is the reason for their elaborate temples and most Mormons long to participate not realizing that they are in a Masonic situation. In each temple, Mormons offer an area that is to portray heaven. Their heaven is the reward after they learn the Masonic rituals.

In 2011 the Fort Collins, CO, LDS temple was then the 153rd operating temple across the globe and the 2nd of its kind in the state of Colorado where the Denver temple was constructed back in 1986. The Fort Collins temple was announced for construction on April 2, 2011 and the ground breaking took place more than 2 years later. This Sacred structure sits on just over 15 acres and is a total of 42,000-square feet. The electrical cost alone was close to $4 million. The link takes you to the structure. https://www.wilkinsonelectric.com/projects/ft-collins-lds-temple/

World wide there are a total of 225 temples in 2020, 13.3 million members and 67,021 full time missionaries. They go through training for four years on how to approach Christians and talk them into joining the church. Many members are foreigners. Many end up in the U.S.

This is one of Satan’s masterpieces. God made everything available for people to get the truth but for Mormons generally not accessible because they are blind to the truth. Mormons discourage their members from going outside their system. One is suppose to get all their services from Mormons.

A reason why professionals join, they will have automatic customers for the rest of their lives. I found out many years later that my insurance agent outside of the church and the realtor were both Mormons. That told me that spirits are involved in our lives.

Marriage had to be church members. My children told me right in the beginning that they had no intention of going on a mission to a foreign country. Consequently girls had no interest in marriage to kids like that.

The secret ceremonies in the temples are reserved for an elite few. My husband wasn’t tithing nor wanting to go to the temple. Thinking I was serving God, I had four jobs right from the beginning. I had given up on going to the temple. Thirteen years later the leaders got worried that I might leave. They came to the house and told us that we were going to the temple in Salt Lake, UT. even if my husband wasn’t qualified.

That was the second incidence that made me wonder what was going on, remembering all those who couldn’t go and here they offered my husband a free ride? The first one was when we joined. They wanted me to get divorce? That’s not the gospel I thought.

The way one learns about the church is by picking up information in conversation with the members and by making mistakes. I taught Sunday school and tried to teach the Lord’s Prayer and one of the kids reported that to its parent. The lessons came from Salt Lake with orders not to teach anything else. I lost my job never to teach again.

In the temple I found that the rituals were verbatim what I had learned in the previous occult church and what the eternal marriage meant, I figured maybe the occult teaching was correct after all? Other excuses that came up in my mind. These educated professionals would not be serving Satan??

I began to realize why they believed in polygamy. Receiving a planet of one’s own, that was supposed to be populated, the male would have to have a number of wives and keep them pregnant to do that. Contemplating all these questions, I began to realize that I had no desire to be involved in becoming a god.

Things began to change. Starving for the word of God, I had been listening to Ken Copeland and suddenly found myself filled with the desire to get into the Bible myself. Copeland’s lesson were similar to Mormon doctrine. They believe God has a physical body and Copeland addressed that as well.

After 20 years I went to a Bible bookstore to buy my father a Bible and I found a little book called “The Mormon Illusion’. I read it and with my Bible readings, I realized that this message was true and my 20 years of service was for nothing. I had been serving Satan not God. Praise God He made a way for us sinners!

Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”

In the Old Testament animals were slaughtered and their blood was sprinkled on those who had sinned and wanted forgiveness. Animals were under God’s original curse and therefore a temporary covering only. Jesus had proven Himself to be perfect and His blood was once and for all, permanent forgiveness for all sins.

Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Mormons believe and take pride in their good deeds which makes it difficult for them to believe that they are sinners. Many conservatives believe they are good people and deserve to go to heaven. They are in error. God is going to say that He never knew them.  Getting saved depends on our belief. Do we truly believe that Jesus lived, that He healed people and resurrected the dead.  Do we believe that He was God’s only begotten Son,  that He never sinned, that only His blood was sufficient to set us free from sin forever.  Do we believe that He was crucified, shed His blood and died. Do we believe that He resurrected from the dead, went to Heaven to be glorified and returned to the disciples for 40 days to prove that He still had His physical body with the wounds, to assure us that we will have recognizable bodies in heaven after our demise or Rapture.

Romans 10:9-10 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
