"Eternity" Means "WITH-God"!

"ETERNITY" MEANS "WITH-GOD"!

Let there be no mistake - only God is Eternal! No "thing" (creature) is Eternal apart-from God. "Death" is not God's Word, but "Live!".

Satan is but a creature of God, as we are. Death contradicts (speaks against) Life. But which shall endure - the creature's word, or God's?

Death is the end, cessation, breach, termination of God's Word, "Live!". Shall we who Walk & Talk and Listen & Learn with God come to such an "end"? Should a creature listen to a creature and not to God?

Jesus warned us that this is the source of unbelief.

Jn 5:44 "How can ye believe, which receive honour (listen & pay attention to) one of another, and seek not the honour [identity] that cometh from God only?"

Shall God's Word "end"? Shall God's Life (Spoken) "end"?

Gen 2:17 "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."

Gen 3:4 "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:" Satan is calling God a liar!

Here is a direct contra-diction; Satan's "word" (lie/deceit) against God's Word (Truth/Reality).

"Buying" Satan means "selling" God! Adam & Eve "owned" God; that is, they "possessed" God; that is, they were "owned and possessed" by God. They "owned, possessed" and had Dominion (Choice) over Life. God made them that way.

Indeed, it was this very thing which "ate" at Lucifer: that some other creature had (was Given) the "say-so" (dominion of "word") over Creation rather than him!

Man was made as God's "finisher". As God Spoke Creation, man "finished" it by choosing that creature's unique nature.

Gen 2:19-20 "And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field;"

What's in a name?: Identity! Identity means "natural character", or "nature" (of behavior).

Adam's choice (word, "say-so") was God's Conclusion (finish, end, or "Perfection"). When Satan maneuvered man into yielding (giving up that which was Given by God), it was MAN who perverted (with his choice) God's Gift of Choice (Dominion). God Gave man free-will to HAVE and to USE. It was not [Intended to be] transferable!

As a result of this disobedience (mis-use) of will (choice), that "free-will" is now no longer "free" to choose. That very gift (blessing) of God is now (under Satan's control) man's curse of slavery (no choice!).

Man chose DEFAULT. And now he has no choice but default, except Jesus Christ!

The opposite of Eternity (with God) is termination (with Satan). There are no "other" options. And without Christ, man has no choice: that is, man has already executed his choice, Satan!

But what Satan has "put asunder", let no man think God cannot make whole, or "One" again! God is Eternity. Satan is not - FOREVER. As man chooses let him remember; GOD CHOSE MAN FOREVER!

Let every knee, heart, tongue & creature here below confess that Christ is Lord! God chose man - FOREVER - IN-CHRIST! The Son of Man Chose God for me. Now I have a choice, I choose God-In-Christ, as He chose me. Praise the Lord FOREVER.
