1. THEINVISIBLE
One of the best known American
Politicians by the name of William
Benton once made a remark-
able statement that “the most
serious problems affecting our
society today are manifestly
moral, behavioral, and spir-
itual, and therefore remark-
ably resistant to government
cures”. What this man observed
is that he realized that political
solutions are not sufficient in
addressing man’s problems
because there is a spiritual force
behind the behavioral patterns of
mankind in our communities. This
view has a scriptural substantia-
tion. “And we know that we are
of God, and the whole world
lieth in wickedness” (I John
5:19). The Apostle Paul also
shares this view. “We fix our
eyes not on what is seen, but
on what is unseen. For what is
seen is temporal, but what is
unseen is eternal” (II Cor 4:18)
Ruler of the World
What the Apostle Paul implied is that if we fix our eyes on what is
seen, then we will always be confronted by events and situations
that we cannot always control. And the events and situations that
we would not always be in control of is the world of the spirit. The
Bible in Hebrews 11:3 states, “Through faith we understand that
the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which
are seen were not made of things which do appear”. In other
words, the physical, material world in which we live was created
or it comes out of the spiritual world which exist alongside or all
about us. And, if this material world, physical world was created by
the spiritual world, then it means that it is a shadow of the spiritual
world which is more real than it!
The Bible teaches that both the physical and the spiritual worlds
were created by Jesus Christ, “…Who is the image of the invisible
God, the firstborn of every creature: for by him were all things cre-
ated, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible,
whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities or pow-
ers: all things were created by him, and for him” (Colossians 1:15,
16). Notice that this verse says Christ created the earthly visible
world with its inhabitants and the invisible world with its inhabit-
ants enumerated as thrones, dominions, principalities, or powers,
etc. These actually refer to the ranking of angelic spirits. Now the
Bible informs us that in the invisible spiritual angelic world, a divi-
sion took place when one of the mighty angels, a cherubim (or an
angel ordained to guard God’s throne) rebelled against Him. The
cause of his fall and rebellion is clearly told in the scriptures:
“How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!
How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the na-
tions! For thou hast said in thine heart I will ascend into heave, I
will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the
mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend
above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High”(Isaiah
14:12-14).
the most serious problems affect-
ing our society today are manifestly
moral, behavioral, and spiritual, and
therefore remarkably resistant to
government cures

2. Pride blinded him and robbed him of a correct balanced state of
mind. He failed to discern the truth that he was the “only cre-
ated son of the morning” whereas Jesus Christ is the “Only
Begotten Bright Morning Star”. Obsessed with this feeling
of elation, he immediately sought to redeem himself out a sup-
posedly low place of bondage where he was placed (Ezekiel
28:13). When his attempts to exalt his throne to equate it with
God (by spreading a false propaganda against Him in order to
win favor of thousands of angels under his command) failed, this
resulted in his expulsion from heaven.
Out of an exaggerated opinion of
himself, which the Bible defines
as pride (Romans 12:3), Lucifer
(as he was then called before his
fall), developed an idea that he
was worthy to be equal to God,
just as Jesus Christ was equal to
God in His divine nature because
he was created to be the “son
of the morning” just as Jesus
Christ is the “Bright Morning
star” (Revelations 22:16).
“Let this mind be in you, which
was also in Christ Jesus:
Who, being in the form of
God, thought it not robbery to
be equal with God: But made
himself of no reputation, and
took upon him the form of a
servant, and was made in the
likeness of men;”(Philippians
2:5-7).
Realizing that he couldn’t touch the Almighty, he planned to retaliate by attacking His creation vicariously!
And, since he failed to acquire a status of being equal with God, to rule over the entire heavenly
creation, he then decided to use the same trick to plant an idol idea in man’s heart so that man could
imagine himself equal with God. So then, when God forbade man to eat of the tree of knowledge, lest he
died, Fallen Lucifer said, “…Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat
thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil”
(Genesis 3; 4, 5).
Little did the poor woman realize that she (and her husband) had already been created in the image and af-
ter the likeness of God. In reality what Fallen Lucifer wanted was to bring man down from the highly exalted
delegated governing authority that Adam and his wife commanded. (Genesis 1:28). He was jealous of the
position that God gave man, and so then he figured out that if he couldn’t govern heaven as an ul-
timate ruler there, he would rather strip mankind of his governing authority, separate him from God,
and get him to serve him in turn. Sad to say however that he succeeded because the Bible states.

3. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt
believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou
shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness;
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9,
10)

“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield
yourselves servants to obey, his serv-
ants ye are to whom ye obey; whether
of sin unto death, or of obedience unto
righteousness?”(Romans 6:16)
Thus, when Adam and his wife
succumbed to his dirty tricks,
they gave him an upper hand
and forfeited the right to exercise
the dominion mandate that God
had given them. This then gave
the devil the right to usurp the
authority from man to exercise
dominion over all the earth.
However, we thank God
that He wasn’t satisfied
with the state man fell into
after being tricked by the
devil; He took steps to re-
instate him to his position
of authority and power by
sending His Son to restore
what the devil had stolen!
Thus, when Jesus went about
preaching the gospel of the
Kingdom, healing the sick,
casting out devils, cleansing
the lepers, restoring sight to the
blind, and unstopping deaf ears,
etc, He was in essence demon-
strating the God-given authority
that Adam lost. Therefore, the
kingdom message that Jesus
brought to us is the greatest
good news to fallen mankind
because they bring hope to man
that he can regain what he had
lost. Now, since Jesus Christ
is the King sent to restore the
fallen kingdom, God’s word says
that if we want to be part of the
Kingdom He is rebuilding, then
we have to, first acknowledge
His Kingship and desire to know
Him as our Savior because He
has come to destroy the works
of Satan and reinstate us in our
position. For this reason the
Bible tells us that this is how we
acknowledge His Kingship and
meet Him in personal salvation:
