The principle of cosmic
evangelism
The basis for cosmic it is found in the mandate
which is given in verse two to the pastor of the local church: “Be constantly
alert and strengthen the remnant” -- Revelation 3:2. These are the believers
who wear the uniform of honour, the minority in this congregation. The pastor
must persist in teaching positive believers for without doctrine they are
potential candidates for the cosmic system; “who are about to die,” we have
seen that this is cosmic death, the carnality which leads to eternal loss of
reward, not loss of salvation. It is carnality reversionism and cosmic
involvement; “for I have not found your work fulfilled in the sight of my God,”
which is the criticism of the majority in the Sardis church. They definitely
were not advancing to maturity; they were not completing the plan of God; the
plan of God was simply not fulfilled, and the reason has to do with the
principle and the purpose of cosmic evangelism.
1. Cosmic evangelism is conducted by believers in
the Lord Jesus Christ. They are under the control of Satan and in his power
system, cosmic one, the interlocking systems of arrogance; cosmic two, the
interlocking systems of hatred.
2. Cosmic evangelistic appeal is generally conducted
through arrogance though the arrogance might be disguised by a facade of
flattery, intellectuality, affection or passion.
3. Arrogance is easily influenced by evil, 1
Corinthians 15:33, “Be not deceived: evil friends corrupt good morals,” and
this includes virtue and integrity derived from residence and function inside
the divine dynasphere.
4. When the mature believer in the divine dynasphere
is led astray by his love for the cosmic believer the resultant arrogance means
loss of discernment; he is dead cosmically.
5. His cosmic friends may be moral or immoral but
the results are the same. He is evangelised for the cosmic system.
6. The moral cosmic believer is affectionate without
being passionate, and with affection lures the mature believer or the believer
living in the divine dynasphere outside and into the cosmic system.
7. The immoral cosmic believer is passionate without
being affectionate, and with his passion lures the mature believer into the
cosmic system.
8. In the first case of the moral cosmic believer
friendship becomes more important than doctrine. You can be lured out of Bible
class daily very easily. All you have to do is to make a friend of a moral
cosmic believer and that friendship will eventually become more important than
doctrine - and you’re gone.
9. In the second case, the immoral believer leads to
the principle that sex becomes more important than doctrine.
10. Affection comes from the soul and is very
meaningful and wonderful only when it includes virtue, integrity and capacity
for love.
11. Passion comes from the body and is meaningful as
an expression of category #2 love only where love, honour, virtue and integrity
also exist.
12. But where love, honour, integrity and virtue
does not exist then you are evangelised by your cosmic friends, or in some
cases, your cosmic lover. Love, honour and integrity can only exist in the
divine dynasphere, in the cosmic system they are destroyed.
The objective of cosmic evangelism
1. The objective of cosmic evangelism is to lure the
believer in the divine dynasphere into the cosmic system. And Satan does not
attack directly, he uses believers in the cosmic system. He uses their
attractiveness, he uses their relationship with you, he uses their friendship,
he uses their morality, he uses their immorality. Just like communism Satan
uses antithetical methods to achieve the same thing.
2. The tool of cosmic evangelism is the lure to
arrogance. The human race is extremely vulnerable and the attention of a friend
or the desire, the lust of a lover, can make a person forget overnight that
number one priority is Bible doctrine.
3. Arrogance cannot discern between passion and
affection. Arrogance cannot relate, then, to love, honour, integrity and
virtue.
4. Therefore arrogance assumes that a show of
affection from the opposite sex is an invitation to passion.
5. Furthermore arrogance assumes that a show of
passion from the opposite sex is a sign of affection or love, and where cosmic
involvement is concerned neither is true. Passion is not love and affection is
not passion. The believer living in the divine dynasphere keeps them in their
proper place.
6. Arrogance cannot distinguish between passion and
affection, sex and love, the unreality of flattery and the reality of virtue, honour
and integrity.
7. Arrogance assumes that passion is affection,
therefore arrogance enters into a physical or sexual relationship without love,
integrity, virtue or honour.
8. Arrogance assumes that affection is passion,
therefore arrogance becomes aggressive and advances lasciviousness, attempted
seduction.
9. Arrogance assumes that flattery is greatness and
the weakness developed makes the arrogant person the slave of the flatterer.
10. Cosmic evangelism is easy once the victim has
been lured into one of the many categories of arrogance, so inevitably
arrogance is a sign of being evangelised for the cosmic system. This is exactly
what has happened in Sardis.
