According to him hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world

 According to him hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world

 

When we ask the question of why God chose Christ before the creation of the world, most churches say, "Because God is omnipotent, God knows everything. After the creation of heaven and earth, Adam and Eve fell into Satan's temptation and fell into sin. People say, "Because the world will fall and become evil and eventually reach a state where God will have no choice but to destroy the world, God knows everything and predestined before the foundation of the world to save only the chosen ones in Christ."

In order to fully understand that God predestined Christ before the creation of the world, the saints must read in John 6:63, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; Sainys must understand well the words, “the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”

Jesus came to save dead spirits. The people of the world are based on the body, but Jesus said, “The body is useless.” The premise of that statement is that all spirits are dead. However, people are not interested in the spirit because their spirit is dead. People are interested in the existence called “I” that comes from the body. That's why I need to become rich and I'm only interested in eating well and living well.

When did the spirit in the body die? Most churches would say that in the Garden of Eden, “Adam and Eve died the moment they ate the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil.” However, there is nothing that can compare the state of the spirit before and after eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Nevertheless, people believe that he died after eating the fruit. Did God have to prepare Christ in advance for something that did not happen after he created man? That's because most churches think simply.

Believers must know God’s will well. God's will is that everyone who believes in His Son, Jesus Christ, will have eternal life. The will of God established in the kingdom of God cannot be achieved in the kingdom of God. Based on Jude 1:6 and 2 Peter 2:4, spirits were imprisoned on earth because they did not maintain their positions in the kingdom of God. However, God predestined Christ and planned to save the sinful spirits imprisoned on earth, so that God could make them children of God again and receive salvation through Jesus Christ. This is the same concept as the parable of the prodigal son. The prodigal son leaves his father, but eventually repents and returns as a beggar. This is the state of a spirit that has left God. Repentance is directly connected to Christ’s death on the cross.

The return of sinful spirits to God is the fulfillment of God's will in the material world, and it is the manifestation of God's glory. The reason this world was created was to imprison angels who sinned and left God. The spirit of the angel who sinned was trapped in the dust and became a man, and God extended his grace so that people could repent to God and return to the kingdom of God. This is what Christ planned and accomplished before the foundation of the world. Christ means savior.

Christ saves the spirits who came to the world and allows them to enter the kingdom of God through the process of death on the cross, resurrection, second coming, and millennium. Choosing before the creation of the world means allowing repentant sinners to enter the kingdom of God through Christ.

Ephesians 1:4 『According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world (Procatables), that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated (Proorisas) us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will』

The saying, “The saints are chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world,” tells us that the Bible emphasizes the importance of spiritual things before material things. “Pro Cataboles” (πρὸ καταβολῆς) means before the foundation of the world. The words “Chosen in Christ” precede the Cataboleth. This means that Christ's predestination (in Christ) comes first, and then the results achieved in the world. Most church people say that they chose certain saints even before the creation of the world. This means that those who were in Christ before the foundation of the world are chosen.

The meaning of joy is ‘good joy according to God’s will.’ God's will is for believers to become God's adopted sons. “Proorisas” (προορίσας) means to mark first. The sign indicates an adopted son. The sign “adopted son” indicates the result achieved in Christ’s predestination. tjdehsms You do not become an adoped son before the creation of the world, but you become an adoped son in Jesus Christ. The priority of becoming an adopted son is to enter into Christ.

God's plan of salvation is not to establish the kingdom of God on earth when the saints die, but to establish the kingdom of God on earth while the body lives. So, what is in heaven and what is on earth are unified.

This is expressed well in Genesis 2:1-2: “Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.』

There are errors when translating the Hebrew Bible. If we translate Genesis 2:1 again, “The armies of heaven and earth were all complete.”

God created heaven and earth. In other words, God created the material world by blocking the light of God from the kingdom of God. So the water mass of darkness was created. Man cannot know how deep this darkness is. God shows the depth of darkness and the depth of human sin.

“Heaven and earth and all things (Chabam) were fulfilled.” The English Bible is different from the Hebrew Bible. Chabam (the basic form is Chaba) is the military.

[Waikulu (Irunira) Hashamayim (Heaven) Wohaaretz (Earth) Wokal (Bay) Chabam (Water)] (וַיְכֻלּ֛וּ הַשָּׁמַ֥יִם וְהָאָ֖רֶץ וְכָל־צְבָאָֽם) .

This part should have been translated as “All the armies of heaven and earth were completed.” God created heaven and earth in six days and made all kinds of living creatures in heaven and earth, and all of this is God's army.

On the seventh day, the armies in heaven and the armies on earth come into harmony. This means that the deployment of both the army (spirit) of God's kingdom and the army (spirit of sin) on this earth has been completed.

 “On the seventh day, heaven and earth and all armies were fulfilled,” means that both the kingdom of God in heaven and the kingdom of God on earth will be realized. The kingdom of God on this earth is the Garden of Eden, that is, the kingdom of God is established in the hearts of people. The seventh day means that the saints in Christ enter the kingdom of God. So that day becomes rest. This means that entering into Christ itself becomes rest. So, Genesis 2:1 includes the concept that “in the future, the kingdom of God in heaven (God) and the kingdom of God (the kingdom of heaven) on earth (saints) will both be fulfilled.”

Ephesians 1:10-11 says, “That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; Even in him:In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:』Translated again through Greek,

εἰς οἰκονομίαν τοῦ πληρώματος τῶν καιρῶν, ἀνακεφαλαιώσασθαι τὰ πάντα ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ, τὰ ἐπὶ τοῖς οὐρανοῖς καὶ τὰ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐν αὐτῷἘν ᾧ καὶ ἐκληρώθημεν προορισθέντες κατὰ πρόθεσιν τοῦ τὰ πάντα ἐνεργοῦντος κατὰ τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ θελήματος αὐτοῦ

『To bring about the complete (pleromatos) administration (oikonomian) of His time (Ton Chiron) to gather together in Christ all things in heaven and on earth. The whole work is carried out according to his purpose and according to the counsel of his will, in whom we have received an inheritance.” (Greek translated Bible)

The way to know the secret is revealed by God through the marital relationship. When a person who has entered into Christ makes hypomone (the second coming into the heart of Christ: presence), Christ, who is present in the heart, reveals the secret. Everything is accomplished in Christ’s predestination. And through the revelation of Christ, believers come to know the secrets of the kingdom of God. The secret is the relationship between Christ and the church (saints). Christ and the church are likened to a married couple.

In Ephesians 5:31-32, “For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.” This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.』The person is Christ, and the wife is a sinful spirit who has left God. That is why it is a great mystery that the sinful spirits become one in Christ and return to God the Father.

Ton Chiron (τῶν καιρῶν) is God's time, that is, in the time appointed by God, Pleromatos (πληρώματος) is full, and Oikonomian (οἰκονομίαν) is management. Full management means stewardship. A steward is a person who holds all the keys to the owner's house. God is trying to establish believers as stewards who hold the keys to the kingdom of God.

The world is ruled by the devil. It's like a prison. However, Christians have the key to the kingdom of God and are looking for those who repent in the world. That is why the saints try to free those who are imprisoned and give them freedom. With the key held by the saints, what is accomplished on earth plays the same role as what is accomplished in heaven.
