Preparing yourself for the study of God’s Word
Before we begin, only if you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ (that is; you have believed [trusted] in Him for His promised gift of eternal life) John 3:16, John 6:47 as a few examples; it is very important to prepare yourself to learn God's Word so the Holy Spirit can teach you as to what your reading or hearing is true or false. To be taught by the Holy Spirit you must be filled with the Holy Spirit which means abiding in Christ. To place yourself in fellowship with God the Holy Spirit [also called abiding in the Christ], take a moment to simply name, cite or acknowledge [confess] your known unconfessed sins privately to God (i.e.; with your thoughts directed only to God the Father). Why? Because you cannot grow spiritually if you’re not abiding in Christ [in fellowship with Him] when you take in bible truth.
1 John 1:9, says: “If we confess [meaning to simply name, cite or acknowledge to God the Father] our sins [known unconfessed sins], He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins [known sins] and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness [all unknown and forgotten sins];” NKJV (New King James Version); we call this REBOUND; read the full doctrine as to “why” we need to use 1 John 1:9 to grow spiritually. Left click the following link to learn more and fully understand the doctrine of Rebound; which answers the question, why do I need to keep confessing my sins all the time? REBOUND
If you have never personally believed in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior (that is, believed in Him for eternal life), the issue for you is not to name your sins to God; the issue for you is to believe by faith alone in Jesus, The Christ alone for eternal life [salvation] and you will be saved [receive Eternal Life] the very micro second you believe in Him:
John 6:47 says: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” NKJV
Notice again what John 6:47 says, “he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” It doesn’t say, “will have”; it says, “has.” Therefore, the very moment you believe Jesus Christ’s promise of everlasting life, you have it (it’s really just that simple), and it can never be lost or taken away from you (John 10:28-29). Furthermore, the gift of everlasting life (also called eternal life in scripture) is available to every human being; there are absolutely no exceptions.
John 3:14-18 says: “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness [Num 21:4-9], even so must the Son of Man be lifted up [the cross], that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” NKJV
Let us now bow our hearts and take a moment to prepare for learning God’s Word, if there is any known sin in your life, this is the time to just cite it privately to God the Father with your thoughts directed towards Him. With your head bowed and your eyes closed, you have total privacy in your mind and soul:

NOTES
Unlike the bible study, these notes are not just for reading without watching the video. These notes are more designed to follow along during the sermon and to bring up the “hover pop-up scripture references;” if just hover doesn’t work, do a “control-left-click,” if that doesn’t work then look them up in your Bible when the Pastor asks everyone to turn to that passage in their bibles.
The Angelic Conflict - Part 48 - Point 13. - The Angelic Observation and Opposition in Human History
Elect angels rejoice over the salvation of one person, Luk 15:7,10.
In the dispensation of the Hypostatic Union, angels observed every part of the First Advent and incarnation of our Lord, 1Ti 3:16.
In the Church-age, angels observe members of the royal family of God in their failure or success to execute and fulfill the PPOG [Predetermined Plan of God for your life], 1Co 4:9; Eph 3:10; 1Ti 5:21; 1Pe 1:12.
“spectacle” = theatron = a theater, a place for public shows, a play, a pace for the performance of dramatic representations.
Eph 3:10 in order that the multi-faceted wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places.
1Ti 5:21 I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels, to maintain these principles without bias, doing nothing in a spirit of partiality.
1Pe 1:12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves, but you, in these things which now have been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven - things into which angels long to look.
long = epithumeo = to have a desire for something, to long for, to set the heart upon.
Mat 18:10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you, that their angels in heaven continually behold the face of My Father who is in heaven.”
Luk 16:22 “Now it came about that the poor man died and he was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s bosom;
1Co 11:10 - angels observe the attitude that the woman has toward her husband and the symbol of authority that it represents.
judge = fut-act-ind - krino = to make decisions for, to conclude, to approve, to decree, to rule, to govern, to preside over with the power of giving judicial decisions.
Satan has organized a tremendous demon army to hinder Church-age believers from fulfilling the PPOG.
Fallen angels are organized to resist and oppose positive believers, Eph 6:12-17; Job 1:6; 2:1-3; 1Pe 5:8.
1Pe 5:8 Be of sober spirit [attain S.S.E.], be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
1. To blind the minds of unbelievers so they won’t accept Christ.
2. Hinder believers’ function and execution of the PPOG, distract them in every way possible, and keep them from making Bible doctrine their number one priority.
a. Satan and his angels are the enemy of unbelievers, Luk 8:12; 2Co 4:3-4; 2Th 2:7-10; Col 2:8.
Luk 8:12 “And those beside the road are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they may not believe and be saved.”
b. Satan and his angels are the enemy of the Church-age believer, 2Co 2:11; Jam 4:6-10; 1Pe 5:6-9; 2Co 11:3; Eph 6:10-17.
Jam 4:7 Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
c. Satan and his angels are the enemy of the Church, Rev 2:8-10, 12-13.
Eph 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
d. Satan and his angels are the enemy of Bible doctrine, Mat 13:19, 39.
e. Satan and his angels are the enemy of Israel, Rev 12:13-15.
f. Satan and his angels are is the enemy of the dispensation of the Hypostatic Union, Rev 12:4.
g. Satan and his angels are the enemy of nations, Rev 12:9, 20:3, 8.
h. Satan and his angels are the chief antagonists of the extension of the angelic conflict into human history, Heb 1-2.
1Jo 4:4 “Greater is he who is in you than he who is the world.”
