From, Before, or Since the Foundation of the World Kindle Edition

Ten places in the Bible, mention is made about events and decisions that had been made FROM, BEFORE, or SINCE the foundation of the world. Four of those occasions had been spoken by Jesus during His earthly ministry. One had been written by the Apostle Paul. One had been written by the Apostle Peter. Two occurrences had been included in the book of Hebrews. Two occurrences had been mentioned in the book of Revelation.

In chapters one and two of this text, two of the writings about events and decisions FROM the foundation of the world will be shared. First, Jesus had taught secrets about the Word of God and secrets about the kingdom of heaven in eight separate parables. By speaking in parables, He had intentionally limited the ability of the wrong kind of people to understand His message. The Prophet Isaiah had many years earlier written that the ungodly people would hear with their ears and see with their eyes. But they would not be able to understand or comprehend the message. In chapter two of this text, Jesus had dined with a Pharisee and had spoken to him about the blood of the prophets that had been shed FROM the foundation of the world. He had also spoken about the blood of the apostles. While His words might have seemed like their martyrdom had been foreordained or even ordered from the beginning that was most likely NOT what He had been saying.

In chapter three of this text, the verse that says that God had loved Jesus BEFORE the foundation of the world will be examined. That verse proves His deity and also raises a question about God choosing those people that will be SAVED and NOT SAVED. That chapter will also look at the kingdom that had been prepared FROM the foundation of the world and how one can enter into that kingdom. Even though the passage relating to that discussion might imply that people are SAVED by their good works the discussion will show that that is NOT the case. In chapters four and five of this text, the death of Jesus having been foreordained BEFORE the foundation of the world and His NOT having suffered SINCE the foundation of the world will be examined.

In chapter six of this text, what God had chosen in Him BEFORE the foundation of the world and what had been meant by the finished works FROM the foundation of the world will be examined. Finally, in chapter seven of this text, a review will be conducted about those names that were NOT written in the book of Life. Once again, do the two passages discussed mean or imply that God had already decided FROM the foundation of the world those people that would and would not be SAVED? Chapter seven will provide a biblical basis for better understanding that question.

In conclusion, the goal of this book as always will be to teach the truth of the Scriptures, to honor the Lord, and to bring glory to Him. In addition, the hope is that all saints will be drawn closer to the Lord and that all UNSAVED people will be drawn to Him as the Savior that had died on the cross to pay the penalty for sin. Romans 5:6-8 says, "For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 10:13 says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

I became a Christian on 12/14/67. I have been married for 47 years. My wife and I have 5 grown children, 17 grandchildren, and 9 great-grandchildren. I received an undergraduate degree from Old Dominion University in 1972. Additionally, I have received graduate degrees from the College of William and Mary in 1975, Liberty University in 1993, and Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary in 2001. Of all of the books that I have written, my favorite and still the one that I would most like others to read is my personal testimony. The name of that book is "Finding My Way Home."
