THE FOUR-POSITION FOUNDATION
GOD CREATED THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. WHEN YOU MAKE SOMETHING, YOU CANNOT JUST DO IT WITHOUT ORDER. YOU CANNOT MAKE SOMETHING GOOD IN CHAOS. FROM CHAOS, ONLY MORE CHAOS COMES.
THIS CHAPTER IS ABOUT THE FOUR-POSITION FOUNDATION. THE FOUR-POSITION FOUNDATION IS THE NAME OF WHAT IS CALLED THE STRUCTURE OF EVERYTHING CREATED BY GOD.
WHAT IS STRUCTURE? STRUCTURE IS: WAY OF BUILDING, WAY OF CONSTRUCTION.
FOR INSTANCE, A HOUSE HAS FOUR WALLS AND A ROOF. THIS IS SO FOR EACH NORMAL HOUSE. THE FOUR WALLS AND THE ROOF IS THE STRUCTURE OF THE HOUSE.
YOUR BODY HAS TWO LEGS, A TRUNK AND TWO ARMS AND A HEAD. ALL THAT FORMS THE STRUCTURE OF THE BODY.
THE FOUR-POSITION FOUNDATION IS THE NAME FOR THE STRUCTURE OF EVERYTHING CREATED BY GOD.
THE WORD IS VERY SIMPLE. FOUR = FOUR. THERE ARE FOUR POSITIONS. WHEN THERE ARE FOUR POSITIONS, THERE IS A FOUNDATION. FOUNDATION MEANS: SOMETHING ON THAT YOU CAN STAND, SOMETHING THAT IS A BASIS, SOMETHING THAT MAKES STRENGTH.
WHENEVER GOD CREATES SOMETHING, GOD ALWAYS MAKES A FOUR-POSITION FOUNDATION. GOD ALWAYS MAKES THAT STRUCTURE TO BUILD SOMETHING GOOD. THIS IS GOD’S SECRET HOW GOD CREATES EVERYTHING.
HOW DOES GOD MAKE A FOUR-POSITION FOUNDATION? THE FIRST POSITION IS ALWAYS GOD. GOD HIMSELF IS ALWAYS THE FIRST POSITION.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE GOD AND YOU WANT TO CREATE SOMETHING NEW? YOU WOULD TAKE SOMETHING THAT YOU ALREADY CREATED. THIS IS WHAT GOD DOES. GOD TAKES SOMETHING, OR SOMEONE ALREADY CREATED. THAT WHAT GOD TAKES OR USES TO WORK WITH OR THROUGH, THAT IS THE SECOND POSITION.
THEN WHAT COMES NEXT? GOD USES THE SECOND POSITION TO INFLUENCE OR WORK ON SOMETHING ELSE THAT WAS ALREADY THERE. THAT IS THE THIRD POSITION.
FINALLY, OUT OF GOD’S WORK WITH THE SECOND AND THIRD POSITIONS, THERE COMES OUT SOMETHING NEW-CREATED. THAT NEW-CREATED IS THE FOURTH POSITION.
ALL THIS WORKS OF COURSE ONLY WHEN ALL POSITIONS ARE FULLY UNITED WITH GOD. ALL POSITIONS CAN BE FULLY UNITED WITH GOD WHEN THEY HAVE A RELATION OF MUTUAL GIVING WITH GOD. AND OF COURSE, ALL POSITIONS MUST ALSO HAVE MUTUAL GIVING WITH EACH OTHER.
LET US NOW LOOK AT AN EXAMPLE. GOD, IN THE FIRST POSITION, GOES TO ADAM. ADAM IS THE SECOND POSITION. WHEN GOD WANTS TO USE ADAM TO CREATE SOMETHING, THEN ADAM MUST BE FULLY UNITED WITH GOD. OR, ADAM MUST HAVE A RELATION OF MUTUAL GIVING WITH GOD. ADAM MUST DO EVERYTHING WHAT GOD WANTS.
THEN, GOD AND ADAM UNITED GO TO EVE. IN WHICH POSITION STANDS EVE? IN THE THIRD POSITION. EVE ALSO MUST HAVE A RELATION OF MUTUAL GIVING WITH GOD, AND ALSO WITH ADAM. THEN, WHEN GOD, ADAM AND EVE ARE ALL UNITED IN LOVE, THEN GOD CAN CREATE SOMETHING NEW. GOD CAN MAKE THE FOURTH POSITION, THAT IS ADAM’S AND EVE’S CHILD.
