Separate but Equal.

In the world of salvation, and according to the constitution, all men are born equal, the Bible also states this but in a different manner. In scripture we, as man, are born separate but equal. Equal; Impartial; neutral; not biased. Just; equitable; giving the same or similar rights or advantages. Having the same value. As man is in this life so shall he be in the next. There is no difference with God concerning man.

The only separation that is made is between those that are born into first Adam, and those that are born into Last Adam, this all according to Gods plan of salvation for all mankind. God treats us all as individuals and not as a group. As an individual he notes our life, weather it is lived with good works or with bad works(Evil). And so it is written, “The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.” When men are born into this life, God sees all in first Adam, the earthly, fleshly and not spiritually, for when a man is born, he knows neither good nor evil, for this trait comes by the learning and teachings of others.

If a man is taught from a child to love, he will love, if he is taught to hate, he will hate. We are all the children of God, the good, and the bad, are all of his creation. The difference is that, the bad child will not listen to instruction from the Father, but the good child, listens intently to His father. Jesus proves this here as he states; Jesus said unto them, “If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do ye not understand my speech? Even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.

He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.” Separate; Divided from the rest; being parted from another; disjointed; disconnected. A man is born separate from the rest of mankind, so therefore, that man, can make his life as he sees fit, with the ability that is within himself. A man can choose two ways, the way of righteousness. or the way of evil. One man can affect another(physically, emotionally.), but a mans spirit or soul cannot be manipulated by anyone.

A mans spirit is a matter of self, verses the lies of worldly affairs. God sees not, race, color, nationality, but rather He sees the works that all men have done, and will do. “Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? Saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?” God has not turned away from man, but it is man that has turned away from Him. We are all the same in the eyes of the Lord but we are still separated in this life by our spirits and most definitely be separated in the next by our faint, or lack of faith, in Gods Son. “But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live?”

The answer here is no. Abominations; This word is also used symbolically of sin in general (Isaiah 66:3); an idol (44:19); the ceremonies of the apostate Church of Rome (Revelation 17:4); a detestable act (Ezekiel 22:11). Iniquity; Sin; wickedness; evil. All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die. “All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned.” If a man turns away from the truth of the Scriptures and reverts to the iniquity of his former life, his righteous acts will no longer be remembered by God. For as it is written; For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? Are not your ways unequal? When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die. Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive. Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

We are all equal in our ability to believe the Gospel. The Lord does not hold salvation from any man, but man must choose whom He will believe. Many say they are atheist, but in fact all men, in their hearts, know about the true and living God. Deception reigns among men, from the richest to the poorest. From the mighty to the weak. You say, “I have seen many in churches that are hypocritical and mean to others, why is this so, and why should I believe?”

The Bible tells us about this very fact in the end days Church. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder(Church.) came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed(Gospel.) in thy field? from whence then hath it tares(Hypocrites.)? He said unto them, An enemy(Satan.) hath done this. The servants(Believers.)said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest(Judgment.) I will say to the reapers(Angels.), Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them(speaking of the unbelievers.): but gather the wheat into my barn(speaking of the believers.) Just a thought. Ars.
