Unveiling The Battle For God's Kingdom

<p>The Bible reveals a Two-World Existence consisting of the physical and spiritual dimensions that coexist and interact. God's original creation was a paradise where spiritual and physical realms were harmoniously united with humanity created as hybrid beings bearing God's image designed to rule alongside Him. Spirit beings such as angels cherubim and archangels were created before the physical universe to serve various roles in the heavenly realm. This dual creation forms the foundation for understanding the spiritual realities influencing human history and God's kingdom plan. The initial harmony was disrupted by the rebellion of Lucifer an anointed guardian cherub whose pride led to a spiritual mutiny involving a third of the angels. This rebellion introduced evil into both worlds initiating a cosmic warfare that continues throughout biblical history. Humanity's fall occurred when Lucifer appearing as a serpent deceived Eve bringing sin spiritual death and broken relationships with God and creation.

Despite this God promised a Redeemer who would ultimately defeat Satan foreshadowed through animal sacrifices and the protoevangelium (Genesis 3:15).</p>
