7 For the time cometh, saith the Lamb of God, that I will work a great and a marvelous work among the children of men; a work which shall be everlasting, either on the one hand or on the other—either to the convincing of them unto peace and life eternal, or unto the deliverance of them to the hardness of their hearts and the blindness of their minds unto their being brought down into captivity, and also into destruction, both temporally and spiritually, according to the captivity of the devil, of which I have spoken.
This is one of the scriptures we studied in school this week. It really impacted me reading it this time.
This is the Lord talking, he says that he has a great and marvelous work among the children of men.
Great and marvelous, great means just that-great. Marvelous is unimaginable. So beyond what we can comprehend.
This work is going to be everlasting to man. Everlasting-permanent, doesn't change.
So this work will be everlasting to man...it will either bring them peace and everlasting life...OR unto the deliverance of them to the hardness of their hearts, and the blindness of their minds. That one word makes all the difference...or unto the deliverance of them TO the hardness of their hearts and the blindness of their minds. They will be given back all of their troubles. The things they didn't let the Lord take for them, he will give back to them to figure out and pay the price for all on their own. With that they are brought down into captivity and destruction, both temporally and spiritually.
That is a lot of information in one scripture.
