Low and
behold one member of God’s court. God’s court and council, the angels. These include
satan, the accuser, who is responsible for testing human beings in their
faithfulness to God. He is later identified with the spirit of evil thus “one
day when the sons of God came to attend on the Lord, among them came satan. So the
Lord said to satan, where have you been? Prowling about the earth, he answered,
roaming around there” (Job1:6-7) hence as a human being in this earth are you
prowling and roaming around fulfilling the detects of your flesh/concupiscence
or the Holy Spirit/tender voice?
Whatever you
do or intend doing remember, you will face the court of God and council as either
a loyal servant to God having testified for him on earth with consistent
righteousness {‘but anyone who stands firm to the end will be saved’ Mtt.24:13}
thus “…come, you whom my Father has blessed, take as your heritage the kingdom
prepared for you since the foundation of the world” (Mtt.25:34)or a disobedient
servant [‘Rebellion is a sin of sorcery, presumption a crime of idolatry’ 1Sam.15:23]
who chose stubbornness in sin (“your stubborn refusal to repent is only storing
up retribution for yourself on that Day of retribution when God’s just verdicts
will be made known” Rom.2:5) thus ‘…go away from me, with your curse upon you,
to the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels’ {Mtt.25:41}.
Do you think
there will be comfort for you and I in a place prepared for the devil and his
angels while we are human beings made in the image and likeness of God?
