"All are beautiful creations of the Father even if I don't acknowledge this or treat you as such because of the current imperfections of the flesh."
God is taking us through a process which involves a temporary experience of sin and darkness for God's purposes. I believe that when God pronounced all things as being good in His creation, all things were good for His purposes. But Adam had many things to learn and develop. I don't believe that Adam and Ever were perfect or complete because they had been perfect or complete, they would have known better than to disobey God. They would have "made the right choice". They would have understood and known the heart and will of the Father so completely and clearly. We have to learn to hate sin and to hunger, thirst for, love all that is good, pure, holy, righteous. We learn in the struggle, how tempting sin is, but we see how deceptive and deadly its consequences are. I believe that all of this is the process of being made into His image. All originate in the Father and were made through Jesus and God's plan is to become all in all. All that is good, pure, holy, righteous will be in us permanently, and we will all be together in all ways with our Father and the Son in God's own time. Whatever He plans for us, He will take us with Him through it.
"As the old saying goes, to the victor go the spoils. And lost human beings are Jesus Christ's prize. As Abraham Lincoln once said: Do I not destroy my enemies when I make friends with them? Make no mistake about this: the victory is not accomplished by men, but in Jesus Christ. Men either serve Him in His victory, or if they oppose, their opposition will be put down soon enough. Either way, Jesus will emerge the victor over all things. He is the Lamb who has overcome the world. It happened on the cross and will be made manifest to all men in due time.
The moment the Messiah sacrificed Himself for the world, that was it. It was finished. Nothing can stop Jesus; nothing can contain or sway Him. His followers are not attempting to make Jesus Christ victorious. They are seeking to share in the victory that He already secured. They want to be used by the Lord in those powerful ages to come. That is what it means to wear a crown and to be Lord, savior, and heir of all things through the power of the blood by which He purchased the world.
And, that is how Jesus is "the savior of all men, especially them that believe." Merciful Truth
Colossians 1
15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together...
The Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world.” (1 John 4:14)
Jesus is “the Christ, the Savior of the world.” (John 4:42)
“This is good and acceptable in the sight of our God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus: Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” (1 Tim. 2:3-6, KJV)
Jesus “is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.” (1 John 2:2)
33 For the bread of God is [i]that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world.” 34 Then they said to Him, “Lord, always give us this bread.” (John 6:33)
31 Now judgment is upon this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out. 32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself.” John 12:31-32
God bless
