I've heard of secret devil worship cults sacrificing babies, whether true, I cannot say.

I've heard of ancient tribal dissident divisions marauding and taking slaves of women and children of other tribal people. Killing the men in warefare.

I think I've heard of similar behavior even in modern times in news articles. Not child sacrifice, but still difficult to comprehend why such things happen today.

The story of the serpent in the garden is one of ancient, beginnings of the earth. That old serpent deceived Eve and Adam seeking their destruction.

The Christ Jesus was then commanded by his Father to lay down his life and take it up again. Something he was worthy of as the only begotten of God the Father.

That serpent caused and took part in the original child sacrifice of our Lord Christ Jesus that had become necessary to save Adam and Eve and their descendants from the fallen state. The serpent, Eve and Adam became afflicted because of it.

Our God is loving and seeks to the furthest reaches to save us, his creations. We are promised as Christians, thru God for our eventual return. He had always desired our peace and happiness both here on earth and someday in heaven together with his loving family. That is why he has continually given us direction to avoid things like death and hell.

He comes together with The Father, Himself Christ Jesus our Lord, and The Holy Ghost. They are together for us as King of Kings, Lord of Lords. He has the keys of hell and death.

You can read about them, our history in the old and new abridged testaments as well as other documents not included in those books.

God is alive and we are also. His testament thru witness of the Holy Ghost is an ongoing mission of God's for the salvation of his creations. We can take part in that missions, as new members if his body, as well as serving him in his religious organizations.

Thank You,

Hello,

You can read the book of Genesis 3 for that account. Also the sacrifice of Issac of Abraham in Genesis 22. Both old testaments.

Then our Lord's sacrifice in the gospels of Christ, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John in the new testament.

Revelation 13:8
All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

The Father God created the world knowing it would cost His Son His life.
Therefore, the fall in Eden was predetermined.
Christ's death was fore-announced and fore-ordained, before man's creation day.
From the foundation of the world, points me towards thinking of the first day of creation, which likely meant before even angels were created.

This also speaks of the love God had towards His as yet, uncreated people.

Jesus Testifies to the Churches​

12 “And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the [f]Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.”

14 Blessed are those who [g]do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. 15 [h]But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.

16 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is nothing to worry about regarding the earth, your life, or the things of this world.

Matthew 6:25-34

Do Not Worry

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

Philippians 4:6
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AND this verse here

12 “And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the [f]Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.”

Proves preterism wrong, since, people are doing work in their own lifetime on this world, for which Christ will judge them afterwards.
Can't have the second coming happen before the work of a man is done for which he will be judged and rewarded.
And it also proves the truth of the Last Day.
