The World System
The World System
Designed by Satan to control mankind.
The First World System
Began from the shedding of the blood of Abel.
… in order that he should seek out the blood from all the prophets, the [blood] poured out from a foundation of the world, from this generation, from the blood of Abel until the blood of Zechariah … Luke 11:50, 51
Every aspect of life is controlled
Commerce: Jabal was the father of those who dwelt in tents and [had] cattle, Genesis 4:20
Culture: Jubal was the father of all that handled the harp and organ, Genesis 4:21
Industry: Tubalcain a forger of all instruments of brass and iron, Genesis 4:22
Judicial: Lamech’s declaration of his righteousness for killing a young man that attempted to kill him, Genesis 4:23, 24
The Current World System
Rebuilt after the destruction of the first world in the flood.
Satan has authority over the world system, Matthew 4:8; Ephesians 2:2
designed to control the sin nature, Ephesians 2:2. 3
Designed to pacify mankind. The whole world is laying as a baby in the arms of the wicked one, 1 John 5:19
Has its own wisdom, 1 Corinthians 3:19; 1:20,21, 27, 28
