"For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints." St Paul has also given this verse before we go further. "And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." (Ph.4:7) One way is to make truth work for you. "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee."(Ps.119:11) This word is a double edged sword separating the thoughts and desires and making known to you before these join forces to trip you up. (He.4:12-13) David sinned over the Bathsheba and it was in his failure to turn away before it was too late. (2 Sa.11) What lust conceives is deadly as his life shows. The covering cherub we shall follow, "Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee." The iniquity of pride followed the law of sin, which is a throne itself since it does not acknowledge the Law, or the Law of the Spirit which the Word signifies. The throne of God presented St John is represented in terms of precious stones. "And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald." God of peace is in the perfect amity of Power and Wisdom, glory of it as a rainbow.
About the throne we have body of the Law the seven lamps as the spirit and soul is the Lamb slain. (Re.4:3; 5:6). These as a memorial gives man a firm footing so we are to follow the requirements of the Word. Satan the covering cherub is a spirit so King of Tyre supplies the body. Hence this lamentation is taken against him, "Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God,"(Ez.28:2). Similarly Satan needed the serpent to beguile Eve. He is the father of lies, and the churches are under his constant attack. Hence the warning
