GODS DIVINE PURPOSE PART SIX OF SEVEN The purpose of God does not involve evil in any way. The plan of the enemy is to overcome all that is good but when he fails his efforts do not cease. He doubles his endeavor and tries to convince Christians that there is value in co-existence. Reverse cannot be employed as a means of moving forward. Understanding this is critical. To misunderstand can create total havoc. A rich man was determined to give his mother a birthday present that would outshine all others. He read of a bird that had a vocabulary of 4000 words, could speak in numerous languages and sing 3 operatic arias. He immediately bought the bird for $50,000 and had it delivered to his mother. The next day he phoned to see if she had received the bird. What did you think of the bird? he asked. She replied, It was delicious. There must be a way to communicate the good purpose of God and there is but it will never be found in the innovations of mankind. C.S. Lewis said “the salvation of human souls is the real business of life.” Purpose in the highest level is determined by our relationship with the almighty God. Mark Twain shortly before his death wrote, A myriad of men are born; they labor and sweat and struggle;...they squabble and scold and fight; they scramble for little mean advantages over each other; age creeps upon them; infirmities follow; ...those they love are taken from them, and the joy of life is turned to aching grief. It (the release) comes at last--the only unpoisoned gift earth ever had for them--and they vanish from a world where they were of no consequence,...a world which will lament them a day and forget them forever. The ladder of life is best represented by its lowest rung. Fulfillment can only come as we receive and are revived by the forward progress of Gods purpose. To fulfill God design I must totally resign. ALL GOOD IS ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE ANY OTHER PATH IS A DETOUR AND VERY DANGEROUS SO, TELL ME, WHAT IS GODS AIM, WHATS HIS DESIGN THE ANSWER IS TO FELLOWSHIP AND TO TOTALLY RESIGN
