The Foundation of the World is an epic event that occurred at a critical juncture in God’s cosmos. It happened between 5000 and 6000 years ago. Factions of God’s angels wanted to follow Satan in his prideful attempt to be like God. The rest of the angels wanted to remain true to Jehovah God. At some point, the Holy Trinity gave a command that man would be made in their image. Man would be made in the likeness of the Father’s very nature, with no capacity to lie, or to be tempted by sin. A choice was made as to who would qualify to be made in the Father’s image. It was based on one’s allegiance. Jesus’ testimony was taken in a deposition, resulting in Son’s of Light and Son’s of Darkness. In this world, the two differ by what is revealed to them from the Bible. The Son’s of Darkness have a little steeper hill to climb, but they are not excluded from the new creation that the Trinity is in the process of building.
Satan was at the center of the controversy, and this book delves into his past. He was the anointed angel who covers, i.e. Satan was placed at the highest level of confidence by Jehovah God Himself. His job was to protect and proclaim God's presence, as he was in God's inner circle of authority. Satan's influence, before the Fall of man, expanded beyond God's inner circle. In fact, it spread throughout all of God's creation. From an allegory in Ezekiel, Chapter 31, it appears Satan made an offer of rebellion to all of God’s angels. It had to have been at this point that the Trinity gave the command to change the creation.
Angels are also a big part of the discussion: Angels held in chains of darkness until the Day of Judgment. Are they amongst us today? Are we like the angels? Scripture says we will judge angels, and that we judge only within the body of believers. Does this mean we will be angels? You will be intrigued by the answer.
