“We’re abiding in the One True Living Vine: On desert land AND /OR On Line” APOSTOLIC MINISTRY HISTORY Using a Abiding Relationship Theology Perspective (C)2017 Taveau D’Arcy All copyrights reserved under international copyright law GENESIS 1-2 PRIOR TO THE HUMAN FALL** **I deeply enjoy discussing Prior to the Human Garden Fall. It reminds me of the many who dimly view the supernatural Creation Story and find fault with any Bible teaching that says, “God owns the Planet and we must honor whatever Eternal Game Plan HE invented …as HE still owns this Planet” WHILE I truly this all as a SELAH and fully RESPECT each and very varied human Individual to have the RIGHT to what THEY perceive is The TRUTH….I often say, “if Critics and Doubters can sit,hour upon hour, soaking up science fiction, videos, Hollywood amazing special affects and many can accept and entertain that as “POSSIBLE’ “CREDIBLE” then WHY can’t they seem to think that the Living, ETERNAL, AMAZING,  SUPERNATURAL HOLY GOD can top  ALL of  of that…As in DUH?” THE TOPIC: THE SPIRITUAL HISTORY OF GOVERNMENT* *We Submit:Before there was the need for all types of spiritual, natural government, forms of natural, spiritual leader authority there was the Most High God indwelling and spiritually connected  via “the perceiver discerner” real realm. But also not barring natural spoken real words.   TO SET UP THE PRIOR TO THE OT LAW AND PRIOR TO FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH COMMUNITY PEACEFUL GOVERNMENT…. WE OUGHT TO IDENTIFY TIME PERIODS. So this  Ye Must Be Born Again writer  submits these as a general overview (non legalistic) time line: 1) CREATION Prior to the Human Big Fall: Genesis 1-2 2) REAL REASONS for God setting up Mosaic and Levitical Loving Law: Genesis 3- onward 3) NEED FOR Ten Commandments, the Levitical Law, … AND THEIR CULTURE SHAPING BASICALLY SUCCESSFUL, IMPLICATIONS: Exodus 20, Leviticus, Deuteronomy, onward, etc. 4) INTERSPERSED TIME OF  THE PROPHETS: A MORPHING, AND WARPING OF THE LAW BY HUMAN SIN, LEADER IDOLATRY, UNHOLY MIXTURE…(EXAMPLES: ISAIAH, OBEDIAH,  MALACHI)…WHICH IS THEN FOLLOWED BY THE ” SILENT 400 YEARS” (NO OFFICIAL BIBLE CANON LEADER WORD)  BETWEEN MALACHI AND NEW TESTAMENT MATTHEW; 5) And all of that,  set the stage for the accusative Brood of Religious Pharisees and the Coming of John the Baptist and CHRIST the long awaited Messiah: THE SAVIOR. THIS MINISTRY PERCEIVES THE NEED FOR BIBLE UNDERSTANDING USING what we would name “RELATIONSHIP” THEOLOGY, to make key main points. A MAIN INSTRUCTION POINT: We may find scriptural evidence which discloses that GOD ORIGINALLY SET UP THE PLANET EARTH BASED UPON FULLFILLING, NON ACCUSATIVE, EVEN APOSTOLIC,  DIVINE LRELATIONSHIPS ….with the Primary relationship fruit being harmonious, supremely fulfilling, contented, even unlimited,  SPIRIT TO SPIRIT TRUE CONNECTIVITY between Father Creator God and humans, and then among the humans themselves. (Yet this was before SIN CAME IN);   WE OBSERVE that prior to Sin  and the Fallen Human Nature, all Life RELATIONSHIPS (God and each human, human and each human, human and the organic planet, all of the living creatures, etc was completely blissful, in abiding, enduring, 24/7/365 fullfilled peace and harmony, with not one kind of division, pain, worry, fear or frustration…OR any lack of self governement (aka  personal self control, temperance).   GENESIS 1-2 PRIOR TO THE OLD TESTAMENT LOVING LAW (MOSAIC TEN COMMANDMENTS) the First Society had been designed to be based upon DIVINE RELATIONSHIP and HOLY SPIRIT FLOW with each human person fully possessing their very own SELF GOVERNMENT (aka undiluted, non accusing, Galatians 5:22-23 “temperance/self control”along with ” love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control” NOTE: while many theologians approach the TEN COMMANDMENTS and the OLD TESTAMENT LEVITICAL LAW as a list of requirements, actions or failure to comply to such declared commands, in supreme RELATIONSHIP THEOLOGY( How all Sciprtures, spiritual remaining fruit, affect RELATIONSHIPS).  RELATIONSHIP BIBLE THEOLOGY is based upon our research of the First Church pioneering founder, JESUS CHRIST during His life (both personal as well as apostolic ministry) on the earth in Mathew, Mark, Luke and John. The Christ was  all 5 fold Ephesians 4 offices combined into ONE..yet without any fragile sin weakness and/or giant human leader ego. He was the pioneering  One “who went about doing good, healing all who were oppressed by the devil…” Acts 10:38  FOR THE PURPOSES OF FRESH INSIGHT: I  SUBMIT that the Ten Commandments AND the Old Testament Levitical Law,PENTETEUCH, TORAH, was a mysterious God Method set up instead of the lost SELF GOVERNMENT, HUMAN SELF CONTROL. And this would stave off men and women descending into complete chaos and mayhem in Hebrew society. It would call attention to conform to Righteousness and place judgements and penalties on all who chose DARKNESS over LIGHT, DEATH over LIFE and chaotic SIN over GOD’S OWN METHOD of temporal earthly living. ( PRIOR TO ALL GOVERNING LAW) DURING GENESIS 1: ALL Bible relationships were in complete harmony. There was no need for rules, Levitical law and /or the Ten Commandments; The RELATIONSHIP between the Father God and both Adam and Eve was completely unbroken and unhindered. No accusation or mistaken misunderstanding was found…until Genesis 3. WRITER’S NOTE: Genesis 1 God forms Adam first and informs him (all alone) that “you must not eat of the ONE tree, the Knowledge of Good and Evil) Eve had not been formed, with the writing imagining that Adam, as the Governor and Head of Chain of Command over the Planet and Eve, would later instruct Eve about God’s “DON’T PARTAKE OF THAT ONE TREE” big command. Or perhaps later Eve heard them both discussing it. One cannot really know for sure. DURING GENESIS 1-2 ALL IS WELL. The First Couple and The Eternal God bask and divinely, daily communicate in the sweet peace, power and organic shalom of God’s “nothing is missing, nothing is broken” Eden Garden   IN GENESIS 3. The peaceful sinless, accuser fully free lovely Garden will face it’s big test. Will Adam and Eve please Creator GOD or will they please themselves?  Sad to say, but both choose to please themself over the Lord, but with Adam being later chastised by the Lord for willfully choosing to please HIS WIFE over the Lord!” WRITER’S NOTE: 1) Eve is deceived 2) Adam willfully participates. 3) Later God calls out “Adam, where are you” with no mention of Eve, right then. The writer submits that this reveals God’s RESPECT for the Office of the First Man, and the Chain of Command.   THE CURIOUS WRITER WONDERS STA Q. WHAT IF… ADAM had risen up and told God right away, “Father, Eve was deceived, but I willfully wanted to please  HER over YOU and so I ate the piece of fruit..and I repent.” But rather, Adam, chose to duck and avoid and blame shift over onto Eve..and betrayed both Relationships: with Father God and with First Spouse Eve. …PERHAPS if Adam had humaned up and quickly told the Lord “I repent, Father. It all happened on my overseer watch” …then.maybe Father God would have forgiven.  (Selah not dogma!) GENESIS 3-ONWARD: Now as an act of the will, the planet known as Earth fell into chaos, sin and human suffering. Now the First Couple endure stresses and worries and big natural, emotional, relationship big problems, even from the pit of accuser hell. AND GONE is the temperance, meekness, self control over will and what follows tends to grow worse and worse, more deadly and dark. All RELATIONSHIPS (God, Man, Spouse, Land) are now fully affected, afflicted, and even awaiting being infected.(Pollution, poison, etc) EXAMPLE: WIDER (RELATIONSHIP) ACCUSER MANIFESTATION: … The first murder occurs when Cain kills his own blood brother, Able (see www.onlinefellowship.us THE TEN BIBLE RELATIONSHIPS at top of page, about RELATIONSHIP with SELF) ACCUSER ORIENTED HUMANKIND is now racing out of control, out of order and in danger of killing itself off. THE MIGHTY MAKER GOD  comes up with a Plan to maintain ORDER, PEACE and CONSTRAINT. This Plan also tries and tests the people’s hearts to see WHOM they prefer: obeing, listening to GOD or to ONE ANOTHER or to their own SELF. GOD (Exodus 20)  sets up what we nickname the TENDER COMMANDMENTS with the overseer purposes of  also  GUARDING, GOVERNING and CONTROLLING all life, human, mankind, family, business RELATIONSHIPS. RELATIONSHIP RESPECT PERSPECTIVE MANY GOVERNING LAWS, for example,the office of the high priests,   the Day of Atonement, the many Hebrew sacrifices , mandatory keeping of Sabbath, all dining, religious, offering requirements, to also call mankind attention back to the DIVINE MAKER GOD  so that none would be allowed to disrupt society, spoil God’s Big Plan, and/or  eternally perish. MANY GOVERNING LAWS, for example,the office of the high priests,   the Day of Atonement, the many Hebrew sacrifices , mandatory keeping of Sabbath, all dining, religious, offering requirements, to also call mankind attention back to the DIVINE MAKER GOD  so that none would not live without Him for all Eternity. Surely there was mercy mixed in with judgement, yet the real MOTIVES behind it all was “Holy Fear of the Lord RELATIONSHIP, Divine Perspective and then about the BIBLE RELATIONSHIPS mentioned at the page at the top www.onlinefellowship.us THE TEN BIBLE RELATIONSHIPS With the Day of Atonement, the many Hebrew sacrifices , mandatory keeping of Sabbath, all dining, religious, offering requirements, to also call mankind attention back to the DIVINE MAKER GOD  relationship…so that none would not live without Him for all Eternity.
