The concept of a divine being that would one day save
the human race from its sinful state began immediately after the
fall of Adam and Eve when God told them about the coming Redeemer.
The knowledge of a Messiah existed among Noah's descendants and
wasn't exclusively limited to the offspring of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob. There were people in Chaldea who also worshiped the Lord and
they had received a prophecy concerning the Redeemer's birth. This
message was passed from generation to generation for more than 2,400
years and this is why the wise men from the east showed up following
Jesus' birth. The city of Jerusalem with its rich history was once
the seat of Melchizedek, a high priest of the living God. Once King
David took control over Jerusalem, God established Himself in the
city and it was also here that the temple was built by King Solomon.
Jerusalem was also the site of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection
and it is here that Jesus will reign during the thousand years
kingdom. Jerusalem is also the location chosen by the Devil to be
the capital for the Antichrist. This is a foundational message that
must be understood before you can understand the coming of the
Devil's messiah mentioned in the Book of Revelation. |
