THE NARRATIVIZED FALSEHOOD OF FALL OF IBLIS AND SATAN'S REBELLION

"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding on to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies" ---John 8:44 (THE HOLY BIBLE)

"That a lie which is half a truth is ever the blackest of lies; That a lie which is all a lie may be met and fought with outright; But a lie which is part a truth is a harder matter to fight" …---Alfred Tennyson (1809-1892), Irish Poet & 1st Baron of Tennyson.

t is no more a tralatitious but has now assumed the truth, albeit a false truth couched in religious orthodoxy. I first heard it at the annual Islamic soiree retreat during the Islamic Lunar month of Ramadan known as Lailatul-Quadri. As a teenager growing up in my native town of Owo, I used to accompany my late paternal uncle, Alhaji Tijani Dauda to the daily event styled as Quranic Studies. In one of the studies, we were told by the chief imam who also was my second uncle, Alhaji Balogun at the Central Mosque Ododasa Street, Owo the reason that once angelic being Lucifer known as Iblis to Muslims was expelled from heaven by the Creator, the True Lord God Almighty Who, as assumed but highly debatable, is known as Allah. There are misconceptions in religious fora that Allah of the Quran is the same as the Jehovah Yahweh of the Holy Bible, but they are markedly different as many Islamic bona fides and adherents have pointed out unbeknownst to many Christians. Most people equate Allah with God Almighty, but this widespread belief has been debunked by knowledgeable Islamic scholars.

Did Lucifer who later became known as Satan fall from God's Grace because he refused to bow down to Adam when the Almighty God created Adam and commanded Lucifer to bow down to Adam? That was what I was taught at the Lailatul-Quadri in my teenage years. My school chief imam, Mahmud Raji re-echoed this same narrative during my secondary years way back in Nigeria. At the Nation of Islam Mosque in Chicago here in the United States, the same narrative has been and still being taught to millions of young men and women around the world today. These teaching ingrained in the minds and hearts of young men and women in Islamic nations and the Muslim world have gained currency across the globe and have been taken as "truths" over the ages. For more than 1, 500 years, few scantily bother to question the accuracies of such teachings and their inerrant contradictions in the light of other facts and "truths" to the contrary. For Christians therefore, it is extremely important to debunk these false teachings and also defend the Honor of the True Lord God Almighty not that He cannot defend His Own Honor, but to save millions of souls falling into more errors and end will up on the Negative Other Side as this error is spreading like gangrene.

DID THE ALMIGHTY GOD TRULY COMMAND ANGELS TO WORSHIP ADAM?

In Surat I' Baqarah, we were taught that Allah commanded all the angels to bow down to Adam thus: "And behold, We said to the angels: "Bow down to Adam" and they bowed down. Not so Iblis: he refused and was haughty: He was of those who reject Faith" (2:34). Iblis, known as Lucifer disobeyed the Lord. He refused to bow to Adam. In Surat Al-Araf, we read the reason Iblis defied Allah and refused to bow to Adam thus: "He said: ' What prevented you that you did not prostrate when I commanded you?' He said: 'I am better than him. You created me of fire while You created him of clay" (7:12). But could this be true? Is the True Lord God Almighty not referred to as God of Justice and so why would He command the angels to worship Adam? Isn't the reason adduced by Iblis not genuine? Alas, another version of why Lucifer fell from heaven has been offered by the Holy Bible and it goes thus: "For to which of the angels did God ever say, "You are my Son; today I have become your Father"? Or again, "I will be his Father, and he will be my Son"? And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, "Let all God's angels worship him." (Hebrews 1:5 & 6). In other words, it was our Lord, Master and Savior Jesus Christ that all the angels in heaven were commanded by the Jehovah Lord God Almighty to bow to and worship because, as our Lord Jesus Christ Himself disclosed: "But if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father" (John 10:38). And elsewhere, Jesus Christ declared matter-of-factly that anyone who has seen Him has seen the True Lord God Almighty the Father as this earthly dialogue with Philip explains: "Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us." Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work" (John 14:8-10).

Apostle Paul, through the revelation shown and given to him by the Holy Spirit declared in Colossians 2:9 that: "For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity dwells in bodily form." Since no human being and even the angels has seen the True Lord God Almighty in His Form before and even now, further revelation accorded Apostle Paul made him to declare in his exegeses to the believers in the Book of Hebrews thus: "The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven" (Hebrews 1:3). This jells with what Apostle John said: "No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known" (John 1:8). Consequently, the true records should be set straight; the True Lord God Almighty did not command the angels to worship and bow down to Adam as I was taught when I was growing up in my native Owo Ondo State as a Muslim and as being taught in millions of mosques across the globe today. This is a colossal error and mis-teaching engineered from the pit of hell. There is ONLY ONE BEING that should and must be worshiped and bowed down to: JESUS CHRIST, the Visible Lord of the Invisible Lord God Almighty.

A JEALOUS GOD INDEED! The True Lord God Almighty did not mince words that He is a jealous God of Creation and He would never, ever share His Glory and Honor with anyone, including the angels and us human beings. He said as much in Exodus 20:1-5: "And God spoke all these words: "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. "You shall have no other gods before me. "You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for, I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate Me…" Would what we were taught as a teenager that Allah commanded the angels to worship Adam not contradict these unassailable and immutable Words of the True Lord God Almighty? In Apostle John's encounter with a high-ranking angel in the Apocalypse, we read the followings: "And I am John, who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had shown me these things. But he said to me, "Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!" (Revelation 22:8 & 9). If an angel warned John not to bow down and worship him, how much more would the Almighty God command all the angels in heaven to worship Adam? It is a lie! Someone is playing and toying with the precious souls of billions of human beings on earth and that person, that is Satan, the Great Liar and Foremost Deceiver should be unmasked. This lie is running amok and must be destroyed with Truth.

The Holy Bible says the preponderant number of human beings are being deceived, hoodwinked, and bamboozled by the god of this age. Who is god of this age? Satan of course! "Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don't believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don't understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God" (2 Corinthians 4:4 NLT). Please, if you have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord, Master of your soul and Savior of your spirit and you have His Holy Spirit in you and thus a "born-again" child of the King of kings and Lord of lords, enter into serious intercessory prayers right now on behalf of billions of souls that have fallen into this serious error masterfully crafted by the Master Deceiver from the pit of hell to lure the unwary into hell. This serious artifice of the Evil One has led to the perish of billion of souls in the Nether Gloom over the ages and there is nothing that can be done for those that have gone into eternity, but for those that are still alive, perhaps we can save souls by calling on our Lord Jesus Christ to open their eyes and seek for and find the Truth, Amen.

Let it be known and a herald should run with the Truth: Lucifer fell from God's Grace and was banished from heaven because of his Pride, Greed, and Lust for Power. Hear what the once angelic being said: "How you have fallen from heaven, O Lucifer son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the ground, O destroyer of nations. You said in your heart: "I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High." But you will be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit" (Isaiah 14:12-15). Lucifer, who later became Satan deceived some of the angels that he would topple the Almighty God from His Sovereign Position and reward those gullible angels with more power. It was an insane, crass, and misbegotten adventure which of necessity ended in total fiasco. The Evil One, alongside his rebellious hordes now known as principalities, demons, spiritual forces of wickedness and diabolical powers were sent parking and expelled from heaven. A place called hell fire was prepared for them as our Lord Jesus Christ disclosed in Matthew 25:41: "…Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels…" A Day has been irrevocably set by the Lord Jesus Christ to get rid off Satan and his cursed rebels in the lake of hell fire once and for all, but unfortunately some human beings who are being deceived will also go together with these accursed spirits. So, if you are reading this anywhere in the world, do not fall into the snares and artifices of Satan and his minions. All those cook and bull tall tales I was fed with in my teenage years are lies, gobbledygook crafted by the destroyers of the human souls to lure them to hell fire. Find out how you can escape the snares of Satan and his demons below!

GIVE YOUR LIFE TO OUR LORD, MASTER, AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST NOW!

"Jesus told them: You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am [the one I claim to be], you will indeed die in your sins." (John 8: 23-24)

The world is going mad! The people of the Noahic Age didn't perpetrate sins and abominable acts to the current astounding level in the Face of the True Lord God Almighty before He wiped that generation away with the Great Deluge. The people of Sodom and Gomorrah will protest their evisceration if the True Lord God Almighty spare this cursed and present generation from their sins. Where is the world going? The United States has confirmed that all countries in the world, in order to establish good relations with the great powers, must accept same-sex marriage (woman/woman or man/man. Germany has just signed the law that declares that there is no more incest, that is to say: brother and sister can get married, mom and son, dad, and daughter, etc. The city of Miami is now proclaimed the city of purchase of public sex. That means on the way, to church, at the mosque, at the market, at the football field, if you need sex, you can enjoy it at any time without any problem. Canada has allowed bestiality (sex with animals). In Spain: pornographic films are allowed in high school and universities. The authorization of the prostitution of minors is given. One Marg Luker of Canada states that any young girl at the age of 10 who feels sexual pleasure, no one should prevent her from exploring or finding out how her body works. Here in our Old USA Satanic churches can now operate and be legally allowed to congregate publicly under the guise of religion liberty. These are frightening days and moments in our generation. Do you see the artifices of Satan and his fallen agents across millennia using sexual perversions to destroy the human race? They did it during the Days of Noah when the Nephilim invaded the earth and consorted with women to pollute the earth. Again, they invaded the heartless people of Sodom and Gomorrah as well with this potent weapon of sexual depravity. Our Lord Jesus Christ drew analogies and parallels between these two cursed generations and our current human events: "As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. And they were oblivious, until the flood came and swept them all away. So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. Two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. Therefore, keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come. But understand this: If the homeowner had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect" (Matthew 24:37-44).

People of the world, and especially fellow believers and co-pilgrims, my fellow strangers on earth and disciples of our Lord, Master and Savior Jesus Christ, the end is near, the departure in Glory is approaching. Christians are being distracted and Satan and the fallen angels want to drag the maximum number of souls with them in order to remove them from divine mercy. Let's be careful. Unbelievers and non-confessors of our Lord Jesus Christ; deniers and apostates, you can still turn your life around now and today and begin on a clean slate. No matter how far you have gone and strayed away from your Creator, you can confess your sins and disobedience to your Maker now and give your life to the Owner of your life, Who is our Lord, Master, and Savior Jesus Christ of Nazareth. It is not too late! If you think you will get away with your disobedience and sin against your Creator, you are sorely mistaken. Whether you like it or not, you will leave this temporary earth one day and again, whether you like it or not, you will be made to account for your deeds during the number of years you spent on this earth. Believe me, Jesus Christ is the Only Judge. Hear Him: "Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son, so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him" (John 5:22 & 23). The True Lord God Almighty Who incarnated in the flesh in our Lord, Master and Savior Jesus Christ is the Only One Who will judge you and I on the Day of Judgement "For He has set a day when He will judge the world with justice by the Man He has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising Him from the dead" (Acts of Apostles 17:31; See also John 5:27; 9:39, Acts 10:42).

There is no other life to live apart from the life of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is our Creator, believe me. He is not a prophet, He is the Lord God Almighty Himself, because He said so in John 10:30; "I and the Father are One." Again, He said in John 14:9 thus: "Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? There is plethora of Bible references for you to know that my Lord, Master, and Savior Jesus Christ is the Sovereign Lord God Almighty Himself. So, if you think you believe in God, you must give your life to our Lord Jesus Christ, because as He again declared to us in John 14:06: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." You can give your life to Jesus Christ now! Say this prayer now using Romans 10:9-10:

"Jesus Christ, I come to You now with penitent heart and contrite spirit. I confess I am a sinner. I have been living my life the way I want, which is a rebellion against You. I know that nothing good resides in me. That is why I come to You today to forgive me of my sins and rebellion. I believe in my heart that You came to this world over 2,000 years ago. You were born by the Virgin Mary in the city of Bethlehem of Judea. You lived with us for 33 years and was sinless. Then, You went onto the Cross and died for my sins and sins of the world. Then You rose up again three days later after defeating Satan and the hordes of darkness in the nether gloom and today, you are holding the keys of death and hades in Your Hands. Jesus Christ, I confess You with my mouth as my Lord, Master, and Savior. Your Death on the Cross had paid the penalty for my sins and Your resurrection was for my justification. From today onward, I will obey, worship, and praise You. I will not live for my self-centered and egoistical life anymore. I will do what You want me to do. I will serve You for the remainder years of my life. I will tell others about You and witness to others about Your love and works of redemption and finished work on Calvary. Take me as Your Own. Seal me with the Holy Spirt. Enable me to do what You have created me for on this earth. Use me for Your Glory Jesus Christ and let me live my full life span. Let me fulfill my destiny and after I have accomplished the purpose for which You created me and sent me to this earthly temporary realm, I will return to You as the Shepherd of my spirit and soul reign with You in Your Kingdom for eternity in Your Holy Name, Amen."

It is done now. You are saved and are now a child of the Living God. He is your father from now onward. Pray that this Jesus Christ will direct you to a Holy Spirit-filled and Word-based Church in your neighborhood where you can join other believers to grow in your new faith from now on. Please be careful you do not keep company with your former friends and crowds so they will not draw you back to your former ways of life. Remember the Holy Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:17: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come The old has gone, the new is here!" Remember you confessed your sins to the Lord Jesus Christ, and He forgave you, because He cannot lie. Make sure you do not renege on our vows never to commit those sins again. Find a Bible believing Church and tell the pastor or shepherd there that you have just given your life to our Lord, Master and Savior Jesus Christ and you want him to walk you through walking the Christian Walk. Hallelujah! Tell him I sent you and if moved by the Holy Spirit to contact me, shoot me an email: [email protected]. Congratulations and welcome to the family of the Living God!

JOIN US AT E-CONGREGATION CHRISTIAN ASSEMBLY BIBLE CLASSES

Now that you have accepted our Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord, Master and Savior Jesus Christ which He truly is, you need to saturate yourself with the Word of God so you can grow in your new faith. You need to change and renew your mind with the Words of God which are contained in the Greatest Book on earth given to humanity as a compass to navigate our paths in this Satanically-controlled and demon-infested earth following the fall of our First Parents in the Garden of Eden. That Book is the Holy Bible. The three basic reason for this is that the secular education has been totally corrupted by Satan hence, the Holy Spirit commanded us in Romans 12: 2:" Do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing, and perfect will." You cant discover His Will for your life now that you are one of His Own until you read His Word. Second, there is a spiritual war afoot and in the not-too-distant Time Street over your life now that you are a child of the King. Satan and his demons, including their human agents will fight to bring you back to their cursed and darkened kingdom. You need to know how to fight through the deployment of the Word of God, because from now onward, "… our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore, put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." (Ephesians 6:12-17). Thirdly, you need the Word of God for good success according to Joshua 1:8: "Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."
