You and me and every man, woman, and child on the face of the earth! Satan wants to prove humankind is unworthy and have no right to the throne of God.\u00a0 They don\u2019t deserve to sit at the right hand of God the Father! A place where he believes he deserves (Isa 14:12-15 and Eze 28:12-17). He is very, very angry at all of humankind!<\/p>\n<p>God the Father revealed His purpose, intent, and plan for those creature (man) whom He made a little lower than the angels.\u00a0 Of course Satan is an angel. He was also an angel with much power and authority in the Father\u2019s house. He possessed a throne. The humans were crowned with glory and honor (This is a part of the revelation of the mystery and the \u201cGap\u201d). Humankind was fixed and the price paid before the foundation of the world. Not only were we chosen before creation to be seated but there was one other thing that made him hate us so much more. All of us have a target fixed to our humanity. Because we are all the target of the process of desensitization to the person of Christ. It\u2019s just that simple! He doesn\u2019t hate other angels or animals. He hates us. All of mankind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Affinity of the flesh<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Satan hates humans or humankind because of who were chosen to be in the Father\u2019s house. \u00a0He is always moving humankind into the process of desensitization to the person of Christ.\u00a0 He does it to keep mankind captive in the \u201caffinity of the flesh.\u201d What is the affinity of the flesh? It is the intimate union between body and soul.\u00a0 The outer identity of who we are in our flesh and blood identity. Our biological birth!<\/p>\n<p><em>For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but [how] to perform that which is good I find not. \u00a0For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. &#8230; But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?<\/em>\u00a0Rom 7:18-21, 23-24 KJV<\/p>\n<p>As long as we are locked into this mind we will never receive Christ as our only life. And we will never learn to live His life as the Son of God by new birth!\u00a0 Let&#8217;s talk about it.<\/p>\n<p>Love in Christ,<\/p>\n<p>David &amp; Katherine<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2015 Sept 20th Streaming Greeting Everyone, We have just returned from our trip to Colorado.\u00a0 We have a blessed and wonderful time!
