Is Satan Playing Chess? Well... he is using us on the board, but he cannot win

Today we're going to attempt to wrap up this mess we've strewn all over the place. So, our pastor spends a little time reviewing some of what we've covered so far. We talk about how the church today has misconstrued the Son of God and the Son of Man. They have no idea what that means, and they wind up greatly diminishing the Godhood of Jesus Christ. Body and soul, and there's much, much more here. Everyone seems to get Joel, Daniel, Ecclesiastes and Job, but most are having trouble with 1 Kings 13 and 2 Kings 23, so our pastor helps us with that. There are meanings that are hard to gather up, but it's very fascinating. It's partly resurrection. God's "reverse of entropy". And He gathers every single thought of our mind.

How is it that the lie of Satan is detrimental to man? In Revelation 7:9-17 there is an uncountable number gathered around the throne, The Lamb slain, in possession of salvation. Why does God have to wipe away their tears? Be ready to write down verses, because he's going to rattle off a whole bunch here. We get into God's definition of "I thirst" and the 7 sayings from the cross, specifically the two wines. And believe it or not, all of the stuff our pastor has dumped on us has to do with Jesus giving Satan the key to the abys.

The lecture goes into Satan playing chess, and he is the grand master, so to speak. We're in Revelation 9, the New Testament complement to Genesis 6:5-6. What is Satan's great weakness? And what does he think God's weakness is? The fallen Angels and Satan have no remorse whatsoever. They're killing people in the tribulation like never before. Why? And what obliterates the lie of Satan?

We will return July 11.
