ELDER SHALL SERVE THE YOUNGER 3

"It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated." Rom 9:12-13 AKJV

Having looked at the coming of Jacob and Esau, how it translated to mean or rep life of Spirit and Flesh and why God had said while they were yet born, "Jacob have I loved Esau have I hated", let's now understand this third decree - why the elder will continue to serve the younger.

Before the founding of the earth mankind existed with God, but as spirits. We were with God, lived and were His angels - the morning stars as Job 38:3 described, the entire human race lived in Him - therein we moved, spoke and had our being. Our togetherness was one, indivisible, invisible.

So when God began creating and had made physical His good thinking - land, sky, sea and things in them God said to Himself, "It is good that I create man, someone like Myself, fashioned after our likeness - male and female, and have them control these things."

Thence thought of "regurgitating" mankind on earth, dropped one by one, two by two. This, God jealously did and guided - putting us apart from Himself, only for a while to unite again.

Spirits can be ascertained but cannot be expressly determined. Spirits as apt as they are, can be easily corrupted. It can disappear, unfound or missing. Almost an impossible thing to redeem any spirit that falls out away - their fall is usually irredeemable.

There was also the intriguing need to see each spirit being of God purely translated, known and identified without any ambiguity, thorough and through, come rain come shine, it'll be just same.

God decided to give these invisible beings, His spirits with Him, bodies that they might be seen, touched and heard.

The same were to be His children on earth.

This was why Lucifer failed and fell with a great crash, he refused the body offered him. Being the guardian Cherub over God's creation, the morning Star, son of the Dawn, he was built to criticize constructively ensuring nothing is left out in what God planned to do but Lucifer chose to be a no-body. He thought having the body would reduce his efficiency, efficacy, effectiveness, undermining his powers.

This is also why when Jesus Christ was coming into the world, He agreed firstly to having a body to contain Him as written Heb 10:5-7.

The Lord by this singular act proved Lucifer wrong that being localized does not make local, if one is rightly tuned. That bearing a body does not in any way reduce but increase. This mind, this right mindset for good living was created by Lord Jesus. Alleluia!

Lucifer ended as Soul with no-body. If it was hard for spirits to repent, how harder would it be for a soul, without a body!

The soul is explainable, it can be determined. In fact, when man dies, his soul continues to be until its judgment Day. Scripture also says, "the soul that sins must die!" Eze 18:1-32

Without bearing a body, it's actually difficult to repent. Even if that happens, there'll be no traceable evidence for the claims. It'd be said like this, "He has repented but we're no sure if it's true or not - no proofs." Or something like, "He said he's repented but that, we cannot prove - there's absolutely nothing to prove his repentance."

Then judgment would be passed like this, "Let him remain in custody until we have proofs of his changed life." So you see, hell has no exit.
