How would you like to live in an age without sin? How would you like to live your life without sin? How would you like to be perfect and live in a perfect age? This is what the future holds for us. Heb 12: The sin that so easily ensnares us. Look at what is around us at this time. God has a plan to deleaven His creation. The process has already begun. Before leaven entered the earth. Job 38:4  "Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding. Job 38:5  Who determined its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? Job 38:6  To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone, Job 38:7  When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy? What is the origin of leaven? Isa 14:12  "How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations! Isa 14:13  For you have said in your heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north; Isa 14:14  I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.' I will push the Almighty off of His throne. Isa 14:15  Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, To the lowest depths of the Pit. What happened to him? He began to have pride in his heart. Eze 28:12  "Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "You were the seal of perfection, Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. Eze 28:13  You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering: The sardius, topaz, and diamond, Beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold. The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes Was prepared for you on the day you were created. Eze 28:14  "You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; You were on the holy mountain of God; You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. Eze 28:15  You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, Till iniquity was found in you.  Sin was found Eze 28:16  "By the abundance of your trading You became filled with violence within, And you sinned; Therefore I cast you as a profane thing Out of the mountain of God; And I destroyed you, O covering cherub, From the midst of the fiery stones. Eze 28:17  "Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor; I cast you to the ground, I laid you before kings, That they might gaze at you. Eze 28:18  "You defiled your sanctuaries By the multitude of your iniquities, By the iniquity of your trading; Therefore I brought fire from your midst; It devoured you, And I turned you to ashes upon the earth In the sight of all who saw you. 1Ti 3:6  not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.   Even at the human level, employees believe they could do a better job than the boss. 2Pe 2:4  For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; Sinned appeared in the universe, but God has confined it to the earth. Rev 12:7  And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, Rev 12:8  but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. Rev 12:9  So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Gen 1:2  The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.   Just before the flood, there was so much leaven and God had to intervene. Many stories about how Satan has corrupted society. One day leaven and sin will come to it's fullness. (evil, terrorism, potential   Christ will intervene when He returns. 2Ti 3:1  But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2Ti 3:2  For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 2Ti 3:3  unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 2Ti 3:4  traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, God will step in and start teaching His way. Satan will no longer be able to deceive the nations. The millennium will still be an age where there is sin. They will need to develop a character and process for conversion. There will still be sin and leaven around, but God will not let it run rampant. Isa 2:2  Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the LORD's house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And all nations shall flow to it. Isa 2:3  Many people shall come and say, "Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths." For out of Zion shall go forth the law, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. Isa 2:4  He shall judge between the nations, And rebuke many people; They shall beat their swords into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war anymore. God will not let rampant warfare during this time. Isa 30:21  Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, "This is the way, walk in it," Whenever you turn to the right hand Or whenever you turn to the left. The process of conversion. How do we deleaven? Go through these seven days to understand. Once forgiveness has been given, we strive to do God's will. Those in the millennium will go on the same journey that we have. Come out of leaven in their lifetime. Hopefully we will be there and be prepared to help them.  There is coming a time when God wants to bring everyone on this journey. God will reach all and it would be wonderful if they could look at themselves and abhor  their way of life. Eze 20:33  "As I live," says the Lord GOD, "surely with a mighty hand, with Eze 20:34  I will bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you are scattered, with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out. an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out, I will rule over you. Eze 20:37  "I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant; Eze 20:38  I will purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me; I will bring them out of the country where they dwell, but they shall not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD. Eze 20:40  For on My holy mountain, on the mountain height of Israel," says the Lord GOD, "there all the house of Israel, all of them in the land, shall serve Me; there I will accept them, and there I will require your offerings Eze 20:42  Then you shall know that I am the LORD, when I bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for which I raised My hand in an oath to give to your fathers. and the firstfruits of your sacrifices, together with all your holy things. Eze 20:43  And there you shall remember your ways and all your doings with which you were defiled; and you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight because of all the evils that you have committed. This is an attitude of real repentance. I hope this is an attitude that we have now. We think, say and do things now that we should not do. Perfection is a journey that we are on. Has given us seven days of unleavened bread to think about all of this. One day is not enough for this. We want to live in a perfect age. It is coming. If we continue in God's way, we will be there. Jer 25:15  For thus says the LORD God of Israel to me: "Take this wine cup of fury from My hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send you, to Jer 25:26  all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world which are on the face of the earth. Also the king of Sheshach shall drink after them. drink it. Jer 25:29  For behold, I begin to bring calamity on the city which is called by My name, and should you be utterly unpunished? You shall not be unpunished, for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth," says the LORD of hosts.' Jer 25:30  "Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and say to them: 'The LORD will roar from on high, And utter His voice from His holy habitation; He will roar mightily against His fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread the grapes, Against all the inhabitants of the earth. Jer 25:31  A noise will come to the ends of the earth— For the LORD has a controversy with the nations; He will plead His case with all flesh. He will give those who are wicked to the sword,' says the LORD." When the 1000 yrs are over and Satan is released, the corruption process and sin will begin again. Those that come up in the 2nd resurrection will be dealing with leaven that they had in their lives. They will need to face their previous lives. We will be working with human beings. This is still not a time without sin. Why, because there are still humans around. This is what God is doing with us right now. How would you like to have a good attitude and edifying speech? It would help us feel free. Mat 5:43  "You have heard that it was said, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR and hate your enemy.' Mat 5:44  But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, Mat 5:45  that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. Mat 5:48  Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. Eph 4:22  that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, When a trial starts, ask yourself, What does God want me to learn from this? Eph 4:22  that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, Eph 4:23  and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, Eph 4:24  and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness. Eph 4:25  Therefore, putting away lying, "LET EACH ONE OF YOU SPEAK TRUTH WITH HIS NEIGHBOR," for we are members of one another. Eph 4:26  "BE ANGRY, AND DO NOT SIN": do not let the sun go down on your wrath, Eph 4:27  nor give place to the devil. Eph 4:28  Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need. Eph 4:29  Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. Eph 4:30  And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Eph 4:31  Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. Eph 4:32  And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you. Heb 6:1  Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, Heb 6:2  and of instruction about washings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. 1Pe 1:13  Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 1Pe 1:14  as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; 1Pe 1:15  but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, Can we work on our thoughts and bring them into captivity? Have less evil thoughts and attitudes. 1Pe 1:16  because it is written, "BE HOLY, FOR I AM HOLY." This is our goal.   There is an age coming without sin. WE know that the millennium will not be an age without sin or after the 2nd resurrection, but it will be coming.   Wrong attitude, hearts and violence that others want to do to each other. 2Pe 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. He desires all to come to repentance. 2Pe 3:10  But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 2Pe 3:11  Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 2Pe 3:12  looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?   2Pe 3:13  Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. This is the age without sin. Beginning an eternal age without sin. 2Pe 3:14  Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless; All of us as Son's of God. Transforming our lives from the old man to the new man. We need to be3 holy as He is holy.   Go on to perfection.
