The Appeal Trial of Satan (7 Part Series)
Why did God create man? What is the purpose
of human history? How can God allow evil
and suffering? What relationship is there
between events of eternity past and human
history? This series provides answers to
those questions and more. The moral fall
of Satan in eternity past resulted in ramifications
that affect us today.
Why are angels interested in
the outcome
of human history? Why would human
history
be such a focal point of attention
and activity
from such a superior creature
as the angels?
Why was a human, a lower creature,
created
after angels anyway?
What Is Meant By A Biblical Philosophy
of
Human History?
Believers and unbelievers throughout
the
course of time have asked some
of the same
questions. Where did we come
from? Why are
we here? And where are we going?
Numerous
attempts have been made to answer
these questions
and reconcile the answers to
the questions.
We call each of these attempts
to address
these questions in a harmonious
manner a
philosophy. Evolution is a philosophy
of
history that provides the underpinnings
for
other derivative philosophies
of history
and life, e.g. humanism. Covenant
theology
represents one biblical philosophy
of history.
Dispensationalism is yet another
biblically
based philosophy of history.
Yet, these philosophies
of history (in and of themselves
and as most
commonly understood) do not satisfactorily
address the aforementioned questions.
Something
is still missing even in most
of the biblically
based philosophies of history
– something
that connects the dots and provides
a cohesive
and synthesizing effect.
The Appeal Trial of Satan – The
Reason for
Man’s Creation
Scripture does not provide us
a specific
reason for God’s creation of
the first creature
nor
of the universe.3 However, we
know that all
things were created for God’s
glory (Psa
19:1; Rom
1:20)...
