The Babylonian Deception: It's Happening Now - Paperback

by Pastor Joseph Strickland (Author)

God said, "In the day that ye eat thereof, thou shalt surely die." God was talking to the man he had created and named Adam. Adam lived 930 years after God told him that he would die, and then he died. However, God said, "In the day that ye eat." Anyone reading this will have to say that Adam was alive after he ate the fruit. That understanding brings humanity into direct contrast with their God. This book intends to bring an understanding of the death that God spoke about and how humanity understands that same death. When we understand that the entirety of humanity is dead in trespasses and sins, we will search for life in our own lives instead of in other worlds. God sent life into this world because the world is dead, but we don't understand the death that God declared Adam to be. Because we don't understand that death, we reject the life that God sent to us. The author of this book attempts to explain an equation: if you don't know the death that Adam and Eve died, you will never know that you have a need for life, and that is what God wants you to have. In the Bible, God is trying to show us that death is real, but eternal life is also real, and He asks us to choose this day between the two. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life." The Bible also says that in Him was life, and that life was the light of man.
