In this dynamic podcast episode, we delve into the profound significance of Jesus Christ's genealogy and His role as the fulfillment of divine promises. This episode guides listeners through the lineage from Abraham and David, as presented in Matthew 1:1, to highlight how Jesus is the ultimate seed that brings forth new creation through His death and resurrection. We explore the mystery of godliness as described in 1 Timothy 3:16 and how the seed principle reveals deeper insights into Jesus' nature and God's eternal plan.

Understanding Jesus' genealogy is more than tracing a family tree; it's about recognizing the fulfillment of divine covenants made with Abraham and David. These promises were not merely about lineage but about the seed principle—the concept that Jesus, the eternal Word, had to be made flesh and die to bring forth new creation. This principle, likened to natural reproduction where the seed must die to give life to something new, emphasizes that understanding these mysteries is a continual journey, revealing deeper insights into the nature of Jesus and God's eternal plan.

The spiritual transformation brought about by accepting the Word and Spirit of God transcends physical procreation and regeneration. Upon saying yes to Jesus, individuals are instantaneously translated into the kingdom of God. This spiritual rebirth is a powerful concept, likened to a field of new life where each converted soul potentially leads hundreds more to salvation. The story of Jesus and the woman at the well exemplifies this principle, showing how one person's transformation can lead to the salvation of many. This spiritual harvest is endless, with eternal life promised to all nations through Jesus.

WEBVTT

00:00:00.421 --> 00:00:02.448
Well, praise the Lord, hallelujah.

00:00:02.448 --> 00:00:25.910
We have been talking about the first words of the New Testament, where it says in Matthew, chapter 1, verse 1, that the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of Abraham, the son of David and we have been looking at Abraham, the promises.

00:00:25.910 --> 00:00:51.710
The reason that he is mentioned as the son of Abraham, the son of David, is because God made specific promises to both of them concerning the seed and concerning the ministry of the seed, the ministry of the seed, and that the seed would be born from each of them.

00:00:51.710 --> 00:00:59.039
And those were promises, those were covenant words, hallelujah.

00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:19.474
And because God made covenant both with Abraham and with David, the seed would come, and that seed was Jesus and he came as part of this great heritage, coming from Abraham, coming from David.

00:01:19.474 --> 00:01:35.314
We've studied that, we've looked at that, we've studied that, we've looked at that and I want to go right into the fact that that verse is much, much, much more about Jesus than it is about Abraham or David.

00:01:35.314 --> 00:01:41.224
Amen, jesus is the subject of that verse.

00:01:41.224 --> 00:01:43.248
It says the genealogy of Jesus.

00:01:43.248 --> 00:02:08.651
He is the son of Abraham, he is the son of David, but he also is the eternal seed that God finally, after 4,000 years, after the prophecy that was made to Adam and Eve and the rest there in the garden that this seed was going to crush the head of Satan.

00:02:08.651 --> 00:02:20.751
It was going to be born and nobody but a few people ever had a glimpse of what this seed was going to be.

00:02:21.860 --> 00:02:25.106
The mystery listen to me for just a second.

00:02:25.106 --> 00:02:28.234
The mystery of godliness is great.

00:02:28.234 --> 00:02:32.289
That's what it says in 1 Timothy 3.16.

00:02:32.289 --> 00:02:34.856
The mystery of godliness is great.

00:02:34.856 --> 00:02:41.853
The mystery of the incarnation of God in flesh is the greatest mystery.

00:02:41.853 --> 00:02:45.967
Okay, you don't need to know about.

00:02:45.967 --> 00:02:49.127
You know all the intricacies of the Big Bang.

00:02:49.127 --> 00:02:54.330
You don't need to know about if the universe is expanding or not expanding.

00:02:54.330 --> 00:02:58.146
You don't need to know how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

00:02:58.146 --> 00:03:04.227
You don't need to know how many galaxies there are, how many different stars there are.

00:03:04.227 --> 00:03:14.943
All of that stuff is interesting things and scientists are always going to be studying that kind of stuff and every once in a while they're going to put something out there to try to bewilder you.

00:03:14.943 --> 00:03:18.010
All right, that's just fine, that's what they do.

00:03:18.010 --> 00:03:23.509
But you need to know this that the greatest mystery is not any of that.

00:03:23.509 --> 00:03:39.556
The greatest mystery is that the seed of eternity and of the new creation that is going to rule and reign in this eternity was made flesh.

00:03:42.424 --> 00:03:49.728
And you can ask yourself this question, and it is a legitimate question and it needs to be answered.

00:03:49.728 --> 00:03:51.406
But you just need to know this.

00:03:51.406 --> 00:04:00.650
You'll never have the complete answer, because why God did this is the greatest mystery.

00:04:00.650 --> 00:04:07.308
Why God did this in his creation.

00:04:07.308 --> 00:04:10.075
Why did he put man here?

00:04:10.075 --> 00:04:14.748
Why did he put man with a capacity to disobey him?

00:04:14.748 --> 00:04:26.321
Why did he promise once that he disobeyed him, that he was going to send another one and that seed would be a different kind of creation altogether?

00:04:26.321 --> 00:04:27.584
Why did God do that?

00:04:27.584 --> 00:04:31.952
And the answer to that is in first Timothy 3, 16.

00:04:31.952 --> 00:04:34.706
It is the greatest mystery.

00:04:34.706 --> 00:04:47.021
So, if that's the case, that means two things you'll never have the complete answer, but you can't have answers to it.

00:04:48.264 --> 00:04:50.689
It is an answerable question.

00:04:50.689 --> 00:04:59.762
It's not the kind of a question where you just throw up your hands ago well, god knows, I don't know, but God knows, that's not.

00:04:59.762 --> 00:05:07.634
That's not a responsible answer, because we are given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God.

00:05:07.634 --> 00:05:14.213
It is Jesus's will that the mysteries of the kingdom of God be revealed to us.

00:05:14.213 --> 00:05:18.088
So to say that, well, I don't know what the answer is.

00:05:18.088 --> 00:05:29.115
You need to know what the answer is, but just understand this that it is an ever, never ending quest, amen.

00:05:29.115 --> 00:05:31.648
The more you know about it, the less you.

00:05:31.648 --> 00:05:38.422
The more you know, the more you need to know Amen.

00:05:38.422 --> 00:05:42.944
The more you seek after it, the more there is going to be to find.

00:05:42.944 --> 00:05:46.180
It's one of those kind of things you never can get to the end.

00:05:46.180 --> 00:05:50.208
Praise God, hallelujah.

00:05:50.488 --> 00:06:05.884
Jesus, son of Abraham, son of David, is the greatest mystery that has ever been given to man the fact that Jesus came to earth, the fact that Jesus came to earth.

00:06:05.884 --> 00:06:08.990
The Bible says this in the book of John, chapter 1.

00:06:08.990 --> 00:06:10.791
In the beginning was the Word.

00:06:10.791 --> 00:06:12.435
In the beginning was the seed.

00:06:12.435 --> 00:06:19.737
In the beginning was this Jesus.

00:06:19.737 --> 00:06:23.605
He was in the beginning with God and he was God.

00:06:23.605 --> 00:06:29.985
There has been nothing made that has not been made through Him.

00:06:29.985 --> 00:06:36.904
Amen, we know.

00:06:36.904 --> 00:06:37.767
These things are true.

00:06:37.767 --> 00:06:50.834
And this man, jesus, came to earth to be made flesh.

00:06:50.834 --> 00:06:58.550
The seed had to be made flesh and the reason for that is the principle of the seed.

00:06:58.550 --> 00:07:05.892
The principle of the seed requires that a seed fall to the ground and die.

00:07:07.295 --> 00:07:24.187
Okay, in this creation there are very few seed plants or seed species, if you count all the ones that have eggs, and birds and fish and mammals and all of that.

00:07:24.187 --> 00:07:51.843
If you count all of that in there, there are very few species where the actual form of reproduction doesn't involve the loosing of the seed from the body and that seed has to die so that it can in fact reproduce something that is different than itself.

00:07:51.843 --> 00:08:02.404
For example, you know, in mammal procreation the male contributes, the female contributes.

00:08:02.404 --> 00:08:11.528
When the act of procreation occurs, both of those contributions die.

00:08:11.528 --> 00:08:19.310
They cease to be what they were before and they are changed into something else.

00:08:19.310 --> 00:08:28.172
Okay, when a fish lays her eggs, all of those eggs leave her body.

00:08:28.172 --> 00:08:36.634
Then a male has to come and impregnate those eggs.

00:08:36.634 --> 00:08:44.293
Once that happens, those eggs and all of that change character.

00:08:44.293 --> 00:08:46.626
They're no longer like they were before.

00:08:46.626 --> 00:08:48.445
They have died.

00:08:50.524 --> 00:08:51.788
It's like with insects.

00:08:51.788 --> 00:09:02.772
When an insect, when an egg, is fertilized, the female part, the male part, both die.

00:09:02.772 --> 00:09:11.245
They form a larva female part, the male part, both die, they form a larva.

00:09:11.245 --> 00:09:12.149
That larva then becomes what?

00:09:12.149 --> 00:09:18.583
A caterpillar in the case of a butterfly or a moth and then one day that caterpillar goes in and starts building this thing and it dies.

00:09:18.583 --> 00:09:27.355
It essentially dies because it dies as a caterpillar and is reborn in a sense as a moth or a butterfly.

00:09:27.355 --> 00:09:39.250
This is true all over creation, that the seed has to fall to the ground and die, and this is particularly true in the plant kingdom.

00:09:41.202 --> 00:09:45.753
If you have an oak tree, it's going to produce acorns.

00:09:45.753 --> 00:09:48.926
Great, wonderful.

00:09:48.926 --> 00:09:50.902
You know.

00:09:50.902 --> 00:09:55.128
You may be standing under an oak tree and one falls off the tree and hits you on the head.

00:09:55.128 --> 00:10:04.115
You know, cute, clever ouch, you know all those kinds of things.

00:10:04.115 --> 00:10:24.919
But the point of all that is is that unless that acorn gets down in the ground and begins the process of dying so that it can produce an oak tree, now there may be an instrumentality in that, because the oak tree, the oak tree doesn't know anything.

00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:33.241
May be an instrumentality in that because the oak tree, the oak tree doesn't know anything but they.

00:10:33.241 --> 00:10:35.914
But, but God knows that you can start a hundred oak trees under a big oak tree.

00:10:35.914 --> 00:10:39.412
None of those oak trees are going to survive.

00:10:39.412 --> 00:10:45.615
They're going to be dwarfed because they can't get any sun, and eventually they'll just die out.

00:10:45.615 --> 00:10:45.937
So what happens?

00:10:45.937 --> 00:11:08.025
We have squirrels, and squirrels take the acorns and take them all over the place and as they have, you know, 20 acorns in their mouth that only has the capacity for 10, you know, 10 of them are going to drop out somewhere outside and then they have a chance to fall to the earth and die and bear much fruit.

00:11:08.486 --> 00:11:09.912
This is the principle of the seed.

00:11:09.912 --> 00:11:19.964
That's why it was so important when Noah came off the ark that God said to him neither seed time nor harvest shall perish from the face of the earth.

00:11:19.964 --> 00:11:20.947
I promise you that.

00:11:20.947 --> 00:11:22.976
So he restored the promise of the seed.

00:11:22.976 --> 00:11:23.599
I promise you that.

00:11:23.599 --> 00:11:26.313
So he restored the promise of the seed, because that was absolutely.

00:11:26.313 --> 00:11:34.172
Noah thought he was talking about plants, but God was talking about the seed of the new creation.

00:11:34.172 --> 00:11:41.951
What he was telling Noah was that that promise that I made to Adam is still in effect.

00:11:41.951 --> 00:11:46.087
And now I make it to you that seed time and harvest will not perish.

00:11:46.087 --> 00:11:50.711
That means that from you will come this seed.

00:11:55.501 --> 00:12:04.207
You'll hear that part of Genesis preached all day long, but you won't hear that Amen, that's what the promise was.

00:12:04.207 --> 00:12:12.221
And the promise passed from Noah to Abraham, and then it passed from Abraham to David, and we talked about that.

00:12:12.221 --> 00:12:18.078
And then, through David, a thousand years later, the seed would be born.

00:12:18.078 --> 00:12:27.142
In the fullness of time, god brought forth a son, born of a woman, born under the law, that he might redeem those that were under the curse of the law.

00:12:27.822 --> 00:12:31.148
Now, what was promised to Jesus?

00:12:31.148 --> 00:12:32.951
Jesus had to.

00:12:32.951 --> 00:12:37.642
The first thing that was promised to Jesus was this mission.

00:12:37.642 --> 00:12:39.543
Was this mission as the seed?

00:12:39.543 --> 00:12:48.674
Jesus said this command of I received from my Father that I lay down my life and pick it up again.

00:12:48.674 --> 00:12:52.845
Okay, that's the principle of the seed right there.

00:12:52.845 --> 00:12:56.277
He was going to lay down his life as the Son of man.

00:12:56.277 --> 00:13:02.972
He was going to lay down his life as Mary's son, amen.

00:13:02.972 --> 00:13:09.808
He was going to lay down his flesh body, but they could not kill his spirit or his soul.

00:13:09.808 --> 00:13:19.570
And his spirit, produced out of his body, out of his flesh body, his spirit produced a spirit body.

00:13:19.570 --> 00:13:25.451
This spirit body is the first fruits of the new creation.

00:13:25.451 --> 00:13:32.811
Nothing else was ever created of the new creation before Jesus came up out of his resurrection.

00:13:32.811 --> 00:13:52.508
When he came up out of the resurrection, he came out as a newly created, first species of the new creation, first species of the new creation, and he had a body that resembled a human body, but it was a spirit body.

00:13:52.508 --> 00:14:03.017
It is indestructible, it is eternal, it is incapable of sin, it is incapable of sickness, it is incapable of injury.

00:14:03.017 --> 00:14:07.479
It can go through walls, it can go through time.

00:14:07.479 --> 00:14:10.626
It is an eternal body.

00:14:10.626 --> 00:14:13.845
It will be his body forever.

00:14:13.845 --> 00:14:16.631
Amen.

00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.883
Now, so he returned.

00:14:20.883 --> 00:14:27.847
He received the promise, the same promise that was given to Abraham.

00:14:27.847 --> 00:14:46.308
All the promises that were given to Abraham and all the promises that were given to David were also given to Jesus, because the Bible says the promises were made to the seed and so that the promises were given to Jesus as well as to the other two.

00:14:46.308 --> 00:14:49.428
So the same things that they got Jesus got.

00:14:49.428 --> 00:14:51.908
Jesus got the promise of the Holy Ghost.

00:14:52.419 --> 00:14:58.386
Now, did Jesus need the Holy Ghost On the other side of the resurrection?

00:14:58.386 --> 00:15:00.652
Did Jesus need the Holy Ghost?

00:15:00.652 --> 00:15:04.067
Did he need to speak in tongues?

00:15:04.067 --> 00:15:05.565
Did he need the gifts of the Spirit?

00:15:05.565 --> 00:15:18.450
No, he did not need that, not on the other side, because he was literally filled with the Holy Ghost, but he did need the Holy Ghost to resurrect him.

00:15:18.450 --> 00:15:27.815
The Bible says that Jesus was resurrected by the Spirit of holiness, amen.

00:15:27.815 --> 00:15:30.811
And because he needed the Holy Ghost.

00:15:30.850 --> 00:15:36.211
That promise that was made to Abraham was a promise that came true on Pentecost.

00:15:36.211 --> 00:15:59.453
Same way that it came true for David on Pentecost, it came true for Jesus on Pentecost, but it also came true for Jesus on the day of the resurrection, when the Holy Ghost raised Him up from the dead Praise God and gave to Him this body that was prepared and created for Him, hallelujah.

00:15:59.453 --> 00:16:11.432
So Jesus received the promise of the Holy Ghost and that Holy Spirit raised him up from the dead.

00:16:11.432 --> 00:16:23.390
And then, 50 days after that and the day of Pentecost, the Spirit of Jesus then filled the 120, and then the 120 ministered to 3,000, and they were filled.

00:16:23.390 --> 00:16:31.288
And so all the promises that were made to Abraham, david and Jesus concerning the Holy Spirit came true.

00:16:31.288 --> 00:16:36.928
Here we are, 2,000 years later, and he is still filling people with the Holy Ghost.

00:16:36.928 --> 00:16:42.669
He is still enabling his gifts among people with the Holy Spirit.

00:16:42.669 --> 00:16:47.229
Hallelujah, that promise has not gone away.

00:16:49.120 --> 00:17:05.258
Similarly, just as endless generations were promised to Abraham, endless generations were promised to Jesus, only a different kind of generation the new creation.

00:17:05.258 --> 00:17:06.623
Jesus said this.

00:17:06.623 --> 00:17:24.858
He said, when they ask him about the brother dying and then his wife marrying the next brother and marrying the next brother and marrying the next brother and marrying the next brother, jesus said you do greatly err, not knowing the power of God nor the scriptures.

00:17:24.858 --> 00:17:42.152
Jesus said you do greatly err, not knowing the power of God nor the scriptures he said in that generation, in that realm of things after the resurrection, they are neither married nor given in marriage, but they are like unto the angels.

00:17:42.152 --> 00:17:45.425
What does that mean?

00:17:45.425 --> 00:18:08.371
What it means is that there is still the ability to reproduce or replicate or regenerate people into the realm of the Spirit in the new creation.

00:18:08.371 --> 00:18:09.593
We are living proof.

00:18:09.593 --> 00:18:16.039
We were taken out of the kingdom of darkness and we were placed into the kingdom of light.

00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:21.105
We were taken out of one realm and we were placed into another realm.

00:18:21.105 --> 00:18:23.807
One realm and we were placed into another realm.

00:18:25.008 --> 00:18:34.217
And the way that that happened was by the means of procreation and regeneration in the new creation.

00:18:34.217 --> 00:18:43.732
And that is not by acts of physical intimacy, but it is by the Word of God and by the Spirit of God.

00:18:43.732 --> 00:18:45.220
Amen.

00:18:45.220 --> 00:18:52.213
The Word of God acts as the agent upon your spirit.

00:18:52.213 --> 00:19:14.909
The Word comes, the Spirit brings life to that Word and you respond to that Word and you are instantly taken out of where you were and placed into this new thing that is called the body of Christ, the kingdom of God, however you want to refer to it.

00:19:14.909 --> 00:19:15.810
Amen.

00:19:15.810 --> 00:19:17.566
That's where you're placed.

00:19:17.566 --> 00:19:21.019
It happens instantaneously.

00:19:21.019 --> 00:19:25.692
It happens in the moment that you say yes to Jesus.

00:19:25.692 --> 00:19:34.041
And when you say yes to Jesus, however that happened for you, amen.

00:19:34.041 --> 00:19:40.211
You were placed into the same realm and in the same way that Jesus is.

00:19:42.522 --> 00:19:43.246
You understand that?

00:19:43.246 --> 00:20:01.136
Is you understand that, because of the principle of the seed, there has to be falling to the ground and dying so that not just falling you know we're great about preaching that.

00:20:01.136 --> 00:20:03.242
You know, fall to the ground, die, give it up.

00:20:03.242 --> 00:20:10.255
You know, yield over all that stuff, we're great about that but the point of that is to bear much fruit.

00:20:10.255 --> 00:20:21.044
So the point of the falling to the ground and dying is that on the other side of it, that seed is going to produce much fruit.

00:20:21.044 --> 00:20:29.701
Okay, so there has to be where there was an acorn, now there is an oak tree.

00:20:29.701 --> 00:20:33.290
Where there was a kernel of corn, now there is a field of corn.

00:20:33.290 --> 00:20:36.349
Where there was a grain of wheat, now there's a field of wheat.

00:20:36.349 --> 00:20:43.088
There has to be that transformation of this into that.

00:20:44.792 --> 00:20:52.608
Now we do that by physical means, but in the new creation it's not done by physical means, it's done by spirit means.

00:20:52.608 --> 00:21:00.267
The spirit and the word are the agent, the spirit and the word.

00:21:00.267 --> 00:21:06.976
It is the spirit of life in Christ Jesus, the spirit and the word.

00:21:06.976 --> 00:21:13.244
Quicken the seed and enable it to be born again.

00:21:13.244 --> 00:21:17.030
Follow this.

00:21:17.030 --> 00:21:20.902
This is important because this is how you got saved.

00:21:20.902 --> 00:21:29.878
You't get saved because some preacher shake your hand or you didn't get saved because you made you know that's.

00:21:29.878 --> 00:21:44.748
This is not how it works, because we're talking about a new creation, and the new creation is a new creation because it has new rules of how things are done, and the rules have changed.

00:21:44.748 --> 00:21:50.828
If how you get created has changed, then the whole game has changed.

00:21:50.828 --> 00:21:51.731
You're saying it.

00:21:51.731 --> 00:21:53.877
Praise God.

00:21:53.877 --> 00:21:57.628
This all came true when Jesus came out of the grave.

00:21:57.628 --> 00:22:17.173
All of the promises that God made to Abraham and David were promises about Jesus, and when Jesus came up out of the grave, all of the promises of God were yea and amen in him, by and through us.

00:22:17.173 --> 00:22:19.621
Now, why by and through us?

00:22:19.621 --> 00:22:22.566
Why does the scripture include that phrase?

00:22:22.566 --> 00:22:41.800
Because we are the fruits of Jesus' coming up out of the grave, and so when we go out and we sow the seed of the word and we do it in the power of the Spirit, amen.

00:22:41.800 --> 00:22:50.703
Somebody is going to die to their old self and be resurrected into this newness of light life, amen.

00:22:50.703 --> 00:22:55.973
And it goes on, and it goes on, and it goes on, and it goes on, and it goes on.

00:22:55.973 --> 00:23:03.852
You know, you may, you may see a hundred people in your lifetime get saved and reborn.

00:23:03.852 --> 00:23:05.781
But what are those hundred people going to do?

00:23:05.781 --> 00:23:07.107
What?

00:23:07.107 --> 00:23:11.403
If they go out and do a and you save a hundred, then you're a hundred just became ten thousand.

00:23:11.403 --> 00:23:21.903
And if they're a hundred, go get a hundred, then your, your hundred has become a million in two generations.

00:23:21.903 --> 00:23:37.200
And that's how a field of new life gets grown, hallelujah.

00:23:37.200 --> 00:23:52.450
Look at it this way In John, chapter 4, jesus is ministering to the woman at the well, you know the story, okay, she tell.

00:23:52.529 --> 00:23:55.721
He tells her about all the husbands she's had.

00:23:55.721 --> 00:23:58.688
She says I perceive you're a prophet.

00:23:58.688 --> 00:24:03.123
Then it goes on.

00:24:03.123 --> 00:24:05.488
And so she she up and leaves.

00:24:05.488 --> 00:24:08.334
She says I'm gonna tell some people.

00:24:08.334 --> 00:24:11.486
Meanwhile the disciples come back.

00:24:11.486 --> 00:24:16.000
They've they've gone and gotten food and they asked jesus, do you want some food?

00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:23.686
He said my food is to do the will of my father, while there's time to do it, and he talks to them for a while.

00:24:23.686 --> 00:24:38.942
He said you've heard it said that you reap where you sow, but I have sent you to reap in other people's gardens and to harvest what you have not sown.

00:24:38.942 --> 00:24:43.406
Then he said this Now watch this.

00:24:43.406 --> 00:24:50.415
There were fields in between the city and where the well was.

00:24:51.320 --> 00:24:54.891
The woman went off to the city and she went and brought some men from the city.

00:24:54.891 --> 00:25:07.574
Now, if you know anything about how they dressed, they wore very white or light gray clothing so that it would reflect the sun in the heat.

00:25:07.574 --> 00:25:24.250
So here come these people walking through the green fields in their white outfits, and Jesus said look up, lift up your eyes and look.

00:25:24.250 --> 00:25:30.945
The fields are white, unto harvest what had just happened.

00:25:30.945 --> 00:25:35.631
The seed produced one seed.

00:25:35.631 --> 00:25:43.509
That seed went and in a matter of minutes, had produced a dozen other seeds.

00:25:43.509 --> 00:25:45.511
Matter of minutes had produced a dozen other seeds.

00:25:45.511 --> 00:25:55.383
Those seeds heard the words of Jesus and he stayed with them for a couple more days.

00:25:55.383 --> 00:25:59.590
And he says we now no longer believe because of what the woman told us, but we believe because of what we have heard him say.

00:25:59.590 --> 00:26:06.252
They turned right around and told a dozen more, a dozen more, a dozen more.

00:26:06.299 --> 00:26:18.885
By the time Jesus left, in two days, he had a church Because he had gotten one seed, and he told his disciples.

00:26:18.885 --> 00:26:24.390
He said look, lift up your eyes, the fields are white, unto harvest.

00:26:24.390 --> 00:26:30.791
Well, that would have been impossible because it was springtime and the fields were still green.

00:26:30.791 --> 00:26:31.922
But those?

00:26:31.922 --> 00:26:33.628
He wasn't talking about that harvest.

00:26:33.628 --> 00:26:37.510
He was talking about the harvest of the new creation.

00:26:37.510 --> 00:26:45.300
Seeds have to fall to the ground and die, or else they remain alone.

00:26:45.300 --> 00:26:46.965
But if they fall to the ground and die, they bear much fruit.

00:26:46.965 --> 00:26:49.352
It's all about bearing fruit.

00:26:51.740 --> 00:26:59.809
Praise God, because endless generations were promised to Jesus.

00:26:59.809 --> 00:27:07.920
He also received the promise of eternal life for all nations, Amen.

00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:37.240
This was certified by Apostle James in Acts, the 15th chapter, when he said that the ministry of the gospel was for all nations.

00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:39.483
And then he quoted from the book of Psalms.

00:27:39.483 --> 00:27:47.000
He quoted the prophet David, which is just another confirmation of this link.

00:27:47.000 --> 00:27:50.403
See the what I'm telling you.

00:27:52.665 --> 00:27:54.067
The early church knew this.

00:27:54.067 --> 00:27:56.130
Praise.

00:27:56.130 --> 00:28:19.105
He said, and with the words, and with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written I will return and I will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down, and I will rebuild its ruins and I will set it up.

00:28:19.105 --> 00:28:33.386
That's in Amos, the ninth chapter, talking about David, so that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles who are called by, not my name, says the Lord who does all these things.

00:28:33.386 --> 00:28:47.647
So the promise of extending eternal life to all nations was given to David and it was certified by the early church that they knew this promise existed.

00:28:48.368 --> 00:28:53.613
And they went out and were actively seeking to do this.

00:28:53.613 --> 00:29:06.333
If you read any kind of a history of the original 12 apostles, they went everywhere and it was said of Andrew that he even got to Scotland.

00:29:06.333 --> 00:29:13.066
Thomas went to India, paul went all over the Mediterranean, others went to Africa.

00:29:13.066 --> 00:29:33.488
Most of them suffered an inglorious death, but they still went to preach this message of eternal life to all nations, that this Christ was sent to all who were appointed unto eternal life.

00:29:33.488 --> 00:29:36.433
Praise God, hallelujah.

00:29:36.680 --> 00:29:48.589
Not only that, but Jesus, as it was promised to David, saying I have sworn and will not relent.

00:29:48.589 --> 00:29:55.890
I have made you a high priest forever, a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek, amen.

00:29:55.890 --> 00:30:12.669
Now Paul got the revelation that not only was he of this order, but that order is based not on passing the title from a dead man to the next person and then that person has to die and somebody else gets it.

00:30:12.669 --> 00:30:17.407
It's not on the basis of death, it's on the basis of an endless life.

00:30:17.407 --> 00:30:32.240
David, or Jesus, fulfilled the promise that was given to David and became the high priest according to the order of Melchizedek, and based the high priest.

00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:36.769
That was based on an endless and perfect priesthood.

00:30:36.769 --> 00:30:43.286
So if you're looking for another kind of priesthood after the order of Melchizedek, you're not going to get one.

00:30:43.286 --> 00:31:02.986
If you think that Aaron's priesthood was more perfect than that of Melchizedek, you're wrong, because the order of Aaron's priesthood was based on the death of man to get passed from one generation to the other, whereas Jesus has an endless priesthood.

00:31:03.707 --> 00:31:11.076
That is a priest even over many, endless generations.

00:31:11.076 --> 00:31:19.351
So it doesn't matter how many people get saved, he is going to be their intercessor.

00:31:19.351 --> 00:31:21.223
He is going to be their intercessor.

00:31:21.223 --> 00:31:22.448
He is going to be their high priest.

00:31:22.448 --> 00:31:31.108
He is going to be the one mediator between God and man is the man, christ Jesus.

00:31:31.108 --> 00:31:34.165
You cannot change that.

00:31:34.165 --> 00:31:45.621
You wouldn't want to change it, but in the second that you forget that he is that high priest, amen.

00:31:45.621 --> 00:31:54.813
You have then made yourself the high priest and you violate that word that says he is the only mediator.

00:31:54.813 --> 00:31:57.887
He is the mediator between God and man.

00:31:57.887 --> 00:32:00.844
The man, christ Jesus, he is the high priest.

00:32:00.844 --> 00:32:12.347
Oh, hallelujah, we can't, if I just want to stop there and close my Bible and say we're just going to stay on that one thought for the rest of our natural lives.

00:32:12.347 --> 00:32:32.208
We would not run out of things to preach, because we haven't even heard a mustard seed full of the revelation of the priesthood of Melchizedek or the priesthood of Jesus Christ.

00:32:32.208 --> 00:32:34.384
We have not heard it.

00:32:34.384 --> 00:32:38.633
Hallelujah, praise God.

00:32:38.633 --> 00:32:46.519
He is the intercessor.

00:32:48.011 --> 00:32:53.019
Says in the book of Romans that the Holy Ghost intercedes forth with words that cannot be spoken.

00:32:53.019 --> 00:32:59.607
It says in the book of Hebrews that Jesus ever lives to make intercession for us according to the will of God.

00:32:59.607 --> 00:33:02.890
These things are real.

00:33:02.890 --> 00:33:17.367
It is Jesus who intercedes for us, who takes our words of faith and sprinkles them like incense upon the altar before God's throne.

00:33:17.367 --> 00:33:21.305
Hallelujah, praise God.

00:33:21.305 --> 00:33:26.182
You don't have to have something.

00:33:26.182 --> 00:33:26.384
You know.

00:33:26.384 --> 00:33:37.374
You know that over 1, 5th of the people on the planet that that profess to be Christians have some other mediator between them and God.

00:33:37.374 --> 00:33:41.077
They call them Saints.

00:33:41.077 --> 00:33:41.311
They call them.

00:33:41.311 --> 00:33:41.712
You know whatever they want to call them.

00:33:41.712 --> 00:33:42.788
Saints, they call them.

00:33:42.788 --> 00:33:43.787
You know whatever they want to call them.

00:33:44.862 --> 00:34:09.927
But I want to know that Jesus is not too busy to take my pleas, my cries, my prayers, my confession, the things that I have been taught by God to pray for, that he takes those personally and puts them on the altar of incense, the same altar where his blood was offered.

00:34:09.927 --> 00:34:26.858
Glory to God, and the Holy Ghost is a witness, and since all the promises of God are yea and amen in him, through us, the father gets into agreement.

00:34:26.858 --> 00:34:31.532
And how can anybody stand, how can anybody refuse?

00:34:31.532 --> 00:34:41.748
Oh, praise God, this is what he won, this is what he, this is what the new creation is all about.

00:34:41.748 --> 00:34:55.534
The new creation is a different, totally different way of doing things.

00:34:55.534 --> 00:35:03.699
Not only is it a different way of recreating and creating, but it's a different way of making power available.

00:35:03.699 --> 00:35:10.512
That's why James said in the last chapter of the book of James, he said that the fervent and effectual prayer of the righteous man availeth much.

00:35:10.512 --> 00:35:15.449
Or, in the Amplified, it says it makes great power available.

00:35:15.449 --> 00:35:17.621
How does it make great power available?

00:35:17.621 --> 00:35:19.405
Just by the process I just said.

00:35:19.865 --> 00:35:21.409
Jesus is your intercessor.

00:35:21.409 --> 00:35:36.327
Jesus is the one that is putting who you are and your requests on the altar of incense and letting God mediate to you his mighty power.

00:35:36.327 --> 00:35:37.811
Glory to God.

00:35:37.811 --> 00:35:43.983
Nobody ever.

00:35:43.983 --> 00:35:44.405
Glory to God.

00:35:44.405 --> 00:35:50.289
They never, nobody ever thought of this, nobody ever saw this in the Old Testament.

00:35:50.289 --> 00:35:56.208
Oh, moses might have, you know, because he was so intimate with God.

00:35:56.208 --> 00:36:00.465
The Bible says there's not been anybody like Moses who saw God face to face.

00:36:00.465 --> 00:36:23.510
You know, he might have had that power, might have had that revelation, but I don't read anybody else really having the revelation of the kinds of things that God has permitted us to see, first of all in his word, and then secondly, as he expands that Word in us by His Spirit.

00:36:23.510 --> 00:36:27.402
This is amazing stuff.

00:36:27.402 --> 00:36:36.688
Hallelujah, you don't have to whine and cry to God, you know, and just plead for Him to do something.

00:36:36.688 --> 00:36:41.208
Amen, knowing that Jesus is your intercessor.

00:36:41.208 --> 00:36:47.420
Amen.

00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:48.918
All you have to do to live a life.

00:36:48.918 --> 00:36:50.907
Is anybody paying attention to me?

00:36:50.907 --> 00:36:52.460
Listen to this one statement.

00:36:52.460 --> 00:36:55.210
Go home and think about this one.

00:36:55.210 --> 00:37:07.367
The only thing you have to do in order to live a life where all your prayers are answered is to pray, something that Jesus can intercede for.

00:37:07.367 --> 00:37:22.661
If you can, if, if you can find the heart of God and hear from God what he wants you to pray, I guarantee you that's something that he can intercede for.

00:37:22.661 --> 00:37:28.333
Most of what people pray for, god can't touch with a 10-foot pole.

00:37:28.333 --> 00:37:36.086
Do you realize that you have to give God something that he can intercede for.

00:37:36.086 --> 00:37:39.751
You have to give Jesus something he can intercede for.

00:37:39.751 --> 00:37:54.670
If you don't do that, you may hit it and you may not hit it, and you want to make sure that you hit it every time.

00:37:54.670 --> 00:38:01.637
Now I'm just going to ask you a question Do you want to be that kind of a person?

00:38:01.637 --> 00:38:02.628
Do you want to be that kind of a person?

00:38:02.628 --> 00:38:09.070
Do you want to be the kind of a person that is known?

00:38:09.070 --> 00:38:12.309
Their prayers always get answered.

00:38:12.309 --> 00:38:20.304
You don't want to be the person that you know.

00:38:20.304 --> 00:38:22.663
Well, you know somebody can pray for me.

00:38:22.663 --> 00:38:26.360
Well, I know this lady down the street, this guy down the street.

00:38:26.360 --> 00:38:27.822
I know he prays.

00:38:27.822 --> 00:38:29.746
I don't know whether they get answered or not.

00:38:29.746 --> 00:38:36.791
You want to be, you want to be the person in the, in the neighborhood.

00:38:36.791 --> 00:38:39.423
You need to go talk to that person right there.

00:38:39.423 --> 00:38:41.132
Her prayers get answered all the time.

00:38:41.132 --> 00:38:42.860
She prayed for me and this happened.

00:38:42.860 --> 00:38:44.219
She prayed for me and this happened.

00:38:44.219 --> 00:38:45.699
He prayed for me and this happened.

00:38:45.699 --> 00:38:57.090
You want to be that person, not so you can show off, so that God can be glorified and so that you can.

00:38:57.090 --> 00:39:07.606
It can be said of you that this person is known of God, because God hears their prayers and answers.

00:39:07.606 --> 00:39:13.072
Glory to God, hallelujah.

00:39:13.072 --> 00:39:25.231
But if you don't believe that Jesus, this new creation, this new seed, is your endless and perfect priest, praise God.

00:39:25.231 --> 00:39:27.746
Then you won't approach this kind of stuff.

00:39:27.746 --> 00:39:35.550
You'll just be praying with everybody else and you hope somehow that your prayer gets all the way to heaven.

00:39:35.550 --> 00:39:53.621
It's all the way on and somebody, somewhere, just like a hockey, like a hockey game, you know somebody shoots and it gets reflected and then by just sheer, serendipitous you know location it gets ricocheted back into the net.

00:39:53.621 --> 00:39:54.726
You go, glory to God.

00:39:54.726 --> 00:39:55.750
It's going to get prayed for.

00:39:55.750 --> 00:39:59.324
This is not how the new creation works.

00:39:59.324 --> 00:40:01.577
I'm going to tell you how the new creation works.

00:40:01.577 --> 00:40:02.577
I'm going to tell you how the new creation works.

00:40:02.577 --> 00:40:13.150
The Spirit makes intercession for us according to the will of God and he lets you know what it is that God wants you to pray for.

00:40:13.150 --> 00:40:14.672
You pray it.

00:40:14.672 --> 00:40:26.929
Jesus is sitting at the right hand of the Father, right there, hovering over the Ark of Incense, the Altar of Incense, amen.

00:40:26.929 --> 00:40:32.010
Instantaneously, because the Spirit and the Son are one.

00:40:32.010 --> 00:40:40.019
Instantaneously, he knows that you're praying what the Spirit has told Him to pray and what he has wanted you to pray.

00:40:40.019 --> 00:40:50.331
He takes that prayer and sprinkles it with his power on the altar of incense, and the Bible says that great power is released.

00:40:50.331 --> 00:40:58.650
All of that happens in a second, and all you have to do is listen.

00:40:58.650 --> 00:41:08.027
All you have to do is have your ear tuned to the Holy Ghost so that you pray what he wants you to pray.

00:41:08.027 --> 00:41:16.186
If you give Him something to intercede, it is done.

00:41:16.186 --> 00:41:25.422
That's why Jesus could say if you ask anything in my name, I will do it for you.

00:41:25.422 --> 00:41:26.784
People go, well, I've asked for.

00:41:26.784 --> 00:41:34.114
You know pink Cadillacs and fur coats and you know new jobs, and it hasn't happened.

00:41:34.114 --> 00:41:41.998
Well, did he tell you to pray that?

00:41:41.998 --> 00:41:44.751
Maybe, maybe, pink Cadillacs aren't the rage in heaven this year?

00:41:44.751 --> 00:41:48.248
Maybe that's not what he wants you to have over to God, hallelujah.

00:41:48.248 --> 00:41:56.440
David was given the promise of possessing Jerusalem.

00:41:56.440 --> 00:41:58.728
Jesus possessed it.

00:41:58.728 --> 00:42:05.954
Not only did he possess it, but on the other side of his resurrection he opened the gates.

00:42:05.954 --> 00:42:06.335
Jesus possessed it.

00:42:06.335 --> 00:42:11.043
Not only did he possess it, but on the other side of His resurrection, he opened the gates to a heavenly Jerusalem.

00:42:11.043 --> 00:42:14.688
Amen, that is now our place of residence.

00:42:14.688 --> 00:42:18.132
The Bible says that we are sojourners here.

00:42:18.132 --> 00:42:19.315
We are pilgrims here.

00:42:19.315 --> 00:42:22.903
This is not our home, amen.

00:42:22.903 --> 00:42:26.380
Paul said it like this.

00:42:26.380 --> 00:42:27.521
He said of Abraham.

00:42:27.521 --> 00:42:39.465
He said Abraham and others like him could have returned back, could have turned back and gone to the place that they came from.

00:42:39.465 --> 00:42:46.355
But they were not looking for a city built with hands.

00:42:46.355 --> 00:42:53.949
They were looking for a city whose builder and maker is God.

00:42:53.949 --> 00:42:59.177
Amen, hallelujah.

00:42:59.177 --> 00:43:06.447
They were looking for an eternal city, a heavenly Jerusalem.

00:43:06.447 --> 00:43:08.684
Glory to God.

00:43:08.684 --> 00:43:15.411
Paul says in the book of Galatians that that heavenly Jerusalem is Sarah, the mother of Isaac.

00:43:15.411 --> 00:43:17.000
Amen.

00:43:17.000 --> 00:43:36.456
Remember, we talked all about that, about the most holy place being Sarah's tent, and that Isaac and Rebekah, jesus and the church, went into the most holy place, sarah's tent, and consummated their union.

00:43:36.456 --> 00:43:38.501
Amen.

00:43:38.501 --> 00:43:40.266
We talked all about that.

00:43:40.266 --> 00:43:42.251
We spent a lot of time talking about that.

00:43:42.251 --> 00:43:43.865
Why is that important?

00:43:43.865 --> 00:44:01.382
Because Jesus, when he was resurrected, he opened the gates of this eternal Jerusalem to all who would believe upon his name and become the sons and daughters of God.

00:44:01.382 --> 00:44:03.284
Hallelujah, hallelujah.

00:44:03.284 --> 00:44:06.188
And this now is our home.

00:44:06.188 --> 00:44:11.974
This is, this is the, the, the heavenly Jerusalem, the, the.

00:44:11.974 --> 00:44:20.501
Sarah, the mother of us all, the mother who is from above.

00:44:20.501 --> 00:44:21.003
This is now our home.

00:44:21.003 --> 00:44:27.349
So now we understand this, that we have just returned back to where we came from and that we have been sent here.

00:44:27.349 --> 00:44:49.972
So this is when we understand that Jesus possessed this heavenly Jerusalem and made it available to us, we begin to understand that that's where we came from, and we begin to understand that this is our heavenly home, and we begin to understand that we are on a mission here.

00:44:49.972 --> 00:45:00.327
We have been sent here just to do what Jesus did fall to the ground and die so that we can spring forth and bear much fruit.

00:45:00.327 --> 00:45:07.668
Amen, because at the end of the day, this is not our home.

00:45:07.668 --> 00:45:20.271
This is only going to be our home when the Jerusalem comes down from heaven and establishes itself here.

00:45:20.271 --> 00:45:41.889
Then this will become our home, because that Jerusalem, that body, that body of Christ, is who we belong to, and when that body comes down and draws us in, all of us in, then we will be part of that forever and ever.

00:45:41.889 --> 00:45:47.947
So, wherever it is, that's where we belong, and if Jesus wants to be here, that's where we'll be.

00:45:47.947 --> 00:45:50.693
Glory to God, hallelujah, hallelujah.

00:45:50.693 --> 00:46:04.851
So everything that God promised in the seed, through Abraham and through David, was fulfilled?

00:46:04.851 --> 00:46:08.282
There wasn't.

00:46:08.282 --> 00:46:17.063
We spent three to four weeks now talking about all of the promises and all of those promises as soon as Jesus came up out of the grave.

00:46:17.063 --> 00:46:21.248
They were fulfilled, amen.

00:46:21.248 --> 00:46:24.512
Now, some of them needed a little bit of time.

00:46:24.512 --> 00:46:33.931
Pentecost needed 50 days, the carrying of the gospel to the nations required a few more weeks.

00:46:33.931 --> 00:46:52.608
But all of the promises that were made to David, to Abraham, concerning the seed and concerning this new creation, amen were all realized.

00:46:52.608 --> 00:47:15.173
They were all fulfilled and we now live not according to the old law of sin and death, nor of the law of Moses, but we live according to a new law, which is the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus, amen.

00:47:15.173 --> 00:47:17.166
That's an entirely new law.

00:47:17.166 --> 00:47:32.523
It moves the law of sin and death out of the way, it moves the law of Moses out of the way, and it says it says this for there is therefore now no condemnation.

00:47:32.523 --> 00:47:49.483
Romans 8 and 1 to them that live, them who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit, for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

00:47:49.483 --> 00:47:56.728
The law of sin and death was what entered the planet and entered the universe when Adam sinned.

00:47:56.728 --> 00:48:00.375
Amen.

00:48:00.375 --> 00:48:04.099
When Adam sinned, the law of sin and death came in.

00:48:04.099 --> 00:48:14.454
That was, that was tested to by God, because the first thing that God did when he confronted Adam with his sin was that he sacrificed animals.

00:48:14.454 --> 00:48:18.590
Until that time there had not been death on the planet.

00:48:18.590 --> 00:48:25.509
But as soon as sin entered, death entered, amen.

00:48:25.509 --> 00:48:31.181
And from that time on man lived under the law of sin and death.

00:48:31.181 --> 00:48:42.436
And under that law of sin and death is that law where you know you may want to do what you, what you think is good, but you can't do it.

00:48:42.436 --> 00:48:44.161
Amen.

00:48:44.161 --> 00:48:51.722
Not only that, but without the law of Moses you have no idea what is sinful.

00:48:51.722 --> 00:49:12.463
The reason that the generations grew increasingly sinful in the days before Noah built the ark was the fact that there were only a few men who were trained in the ways of God.

00:49:12.463 --> 00:49:32.610
You read the book, read the genealogies in the book of Genesis, and you'll find out that the ones who knew God and worshiped God, there was a very thin line that flowed between Seth and Noah, amen.

00:49:32.610 --> 00:49:35.496
That is in the genealogy, that's in the book of Luke.

00:49:35.496 --> 00:49:43.699
Amen, that line between Noah and Seth, the son of Adam, was the line of men who knew God.

00:49:43.699 --> 00:49:45.630
Everybody else did not.

00:49:45.630 --> 00:49:47.835
I mean, if they were born of Cain, they had no clue.

00:49:47.835 --> 00:50:17.541
I don't know about any other sons and daughters of Eve, but I know this that if they were born of Cain, they had no clue about the righteous requirements of God and they lived under a delusion and a union with fallen angels that produced all kinds of abomination in the earth.

00:50:17.541 --> 00:50:23.063
And the only ones that did not fall to that trap were of that bloodline of Seth.

00:50:23.063 --> 00:50:26.413
Are you following me?

00:50:26.413 --> 00:50:35.981
Everybody else was under the law of sin and death and the bloodline of Seth was under the influence of sin and death.

00:50:35.981 --> 00:50:41.545
But look at their bloodline Men and women were living to 800, 900 years old bloodline Men and women were living to 800, 900 years old.

00:50:41.545 --> 00:50:51.081
Glory to God, hallelujah.

00:50:51.081 --> 00:50:57.096
Praise the name of the Lord.

00:50:57.096 --> 00:51:01.820
Praise God forever and forever.

00:51:01.820 --> 00:51:02.550
Hallelujah.

00:51:02.550 --> 00:51:14.730
Everything that was promised to Abraham and to David was fulfilled.

00:51:14.730 --> 00:51:26.960
We now have a new way of reproduction, not according to the laws of sin and death and the flesh, but according to the law of sin and death in the flesh, but according to the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus.

00:51:26.960 --> 00:51:42.797
For what the law was weak in the flesh, god did by sending his own son in the likeness of sinful flesh and thereby condemned sin in the flesh.

00:51:42.797 --> 00:51:51.677
So all of the sin that had happened between Adam and Jesus.

00:51:51.677 --> 00:52:00.858
God condemned it in the flesh because of Jesus' obedience the things that Jesus.

00:52:00.858 --> 00:52:11.347
The Bible says in the book of Hebrews that Jesus learned obedience through the things that he suffered and his obedience was perfect.

00:52:11.347 --> 00:52:17.356
And because his obedience was perfect, he could establish a perfect law.

00:52:17.356 --> 00:52:21.780
What does it mean to have a perfect law?

00:52:21.780 --> 00:52:25.704
There is no death requirement in this law.

00:52:25.704 --> 00:52:42.076
Jesus satisfied the death requirement of the old law, of both laws, the law that was given to Adam of sin and death, and a law that was given of sacrifices that was given to Moses.

00:52:42.076 --> 00:52:47.224
Under both laws, jesus covered the sacrifices.

00:52:47.224 --> 00:52:49.054
Oh, you're not hearing me?

00:52:49.054 --> 00:53:04.789
The Lamb of God was the Lamb that God slayed in the garden Amen, in the garden, amen.

00:53:04.789 --> 00:53:14.938
And that lamb of God then became that lamb that was slaughtered, spoke of the lamb that would eventually take its place as the real lamb of God.

00:53:14.938 --> 00:53:16.521
Are you hearing what I'm saying?

00:53:16.521 --> 00:53:17.875
Listen to what I'm telling you.

00:53:17.875 --> 00:53:25.012
When Adam, when Abel, was killed, the Bible says that Abel's blood spoke for 4,000 years.

00:53:25.012 --> 00:53:36.115
That means that Abel's blood was the best example of blood that had been shed on the earth until Jesus shed his blood.

00:53:36.115 --> 00:53:41.777
Now nobody talks about the blood of Abel unless you're studying the book of Hebrews, amen.

00:53:41.777 --> 00:53:56.851
But at that time it was important to note that Abel's blood had spoke for 4,000 years of the righteousness of God and of the blood sacrifice that God had required because of what he did in the garden for Adam and Eve.

00:53:56.851 --> 00:54:06.713
His blood sacrifice covered their sin, because he took the skin off of the animals and made clothes for them and covered their nakedness.

00:54:06.713 --> 00:54:08.378
Oh, glory to God.

00:54:08.378 --> 00:54:09.952
I wish somebody would preach this.

00:54:09.952 --> 00:54:19.335
And he covered their nakedness and wrapped it around them so that their sin was covered.

00:54:19.335 --> 00:54:20.981
Glory to God.

00:54:20.981 --> 00:54:26.577
And that blood spoke.

00:54:26.577 --> 00:54:32.019
And Abel believed in that blood and that's why his blood spoke.

00:54:32.019 --> 00:54:43.418
He was the only witness that could speak of the blood that God had shed for his mother and his father.

00:54:43.418 --> 00:54:46.532
Cain couldn't.

00:54:46.532 --> 00:54:48.840
Cain was totally reprobate.

00:54:48.840 --> 00:54:58.521
He had a chance to repent and do as his brother Abel did, and he refused and he became a marked man.

00:54:58.521 --> 00:55:03.778
He was incapable of being saved.

00:55:03.778 --> 00:55:15.019
I know those are harsh words, but I'm talking the reality of what we see.

00:55:15.019 --> 00:55:25.992
We don't see anything about Cain's bloodline doing anything but getting wiped off the planet in the most horrific catastrophe that this planet has ever seen.

00:55:25.992 --> 00:55:47.318
Glory, hallelujah, this law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made us free from the law that came in when Adam sinned.

00:55:47.318 --> 00:55:49.998
We're no longer bound by that law.

00:55:49.998 --> 00:55:58.396
We're no longer we never have been bound by the law of Moses, but we certainly aren't bound by the law that came into effect when Adam sinned.

00:55:58.396 --> 00:55:59.820
Amen.

00:55:59.820 --> 00:56:04.773
We're not bound by that because the law of the spirit of life has made us free from that.

00:56:04.773 --> 00:56:08.021
Praise God.

00:56:08.021 --> 00:56:31.255
That law has also not only made us free from the law of sin and death, because through the flesh all of that had been made weak, but Jesus has made us strong, jesus has made us invincible.

00:56:31.255 --> 00:56:42.195
Jesus has made us always triumphant, always victorious, always overcoming, always greater than our enemies.

00:56:42.195 --> 00:56:56.413
Hallelujah, because he has taken us and moved us into a different realm that we call a new creation.

00:56:56.413 --> 00:57:03.224
But if you understand this, it is not just a warmed up version of this creation.

00:57:03.224 --> 00:57:10.594
It is an entirely different creation that coexists in the spirit realm.

00:57:10.594 --> 00:57:13.282
Amen.

00:57:13.282 --> 00:57:15.076
Listen to me very carefully.

00:57:15.076 --> 00:57:24.280
What Jesus did when he created this new creation is he made it possible for you to enter into God.

00:57:24.280 --> 00:57:43.976
When he sent Jesus, he entered into this, but when Jesus left under the spirit of life in Christ Jesus, he made it possible for you to follow him.

00:57:43.976 --> 00:57:46.903
Amen.

00:57:46.903 --> 00:57:59.615
Ephesians the fourth chapter says that he took captivity, captive Glory, to God and he brought them out.

00:57:59.615 --> 00:58:21.960
He's made it possible for you, who were born in the flesh, to now come back to where you started and enter into God, but this time not in a pure spirit form, but now you have a body which has been prepared for you Just the way Jesus had a body prepared for him.

00:58:21.960 --> 00:58:42.396
But now you have a body which has been prepared for you Just the way Jesus had a body prepared for him, and your body has been prepared for you and for him, so that he that is joined to his spirit is one with, or he that is one with the spirit is joined to the Lord.

00:58:42.396 --> 00:58:44.356
You're joined to him.

00:58:44.356 --> 00:58:48.226
You want to get married in heaven.

00:58:48.226 --> 00:58:49.931
This is how you're going to get married.

00:58:49.931 --> 00:59:00.255
You're going to be joined to the Lord in your new body and you shall forever be with the Lord.

00:59:00.255 --> 00:59:06.545
Therefore, glorify, or therefore encourage one another with these words.

00:59:06.545 --> 00:59:10.115
You hear what I'm saying.

00:59:10.115 --> 00:59:13.856
You know listen.

00:59:13.856 --> 00:59:23.300
I keep going on this way because we have been taught things that just can't possibly be true.

00:59:23.300 --> 00:59:39.820
You know, there is not this eternal holiday going on in heaven, where you just get to hang out with angels and sing one more verse of how Great Thou Art, you know, or whatever your favorite song is.

00:59:39.820 --> 00:59:41.583
I mean, that's just not going to happen.

00:59:41.583 --> 00:59:46.411
That is not what it's all about.

00:59:46.411 --> 00:59:49.036
What it's all about has always been Jesus.

00:59:49.036 --> 00:59:53.141
It is always about being formed into him.

00:59:53.141 --> 00:59:54.422
That's what it's all about.

00:59:54.422 --> 00:59:55.965
It's not about anything else.

00:59:55.965 --> 00:59:58.635
Listen to me very carefully.

00:59:58.635 --> 00:59:59.333
I hate to blow people's bubbles, but we need to wake up.

00:59:59.333 --> 00:59:59.778
To me very carefully.

00:59:59.778 --> 01:00:01.974
I hate to blow people's bubbles, but you know we need to wake up.

01:00:01.974 --> 01:00:31.945
You know when you get, when your resurrection comes, when you are, when you put on this new body and you step out of this creation and are now permanently in the other creation, the last thing you're going to want to do is just take a stroll down Glory Avenue.

01:00:31.945 --> 01:00:49.498
That is not what your new body was designed for was designed for.

01:00:49.498 --> 01:00:55.931
Your new body is designed to be perpetually joined with jesus, so that you can.

01:00:55.931 --> 01:00:59.458
You can do whatever he wills you to do.

01:00:59.458 --> 01:01:02.523
I don't know why you would want to go on.

01:01:02.523 --> 01:01:18.278
You know, fixate yourself on taking little strolls down Glory Avenue, when Jesus may very well want you to travel around the universe, you say, well, that would just take too many years.

01:01:18.278 --> 01:01:33.605
You've got all of eternity and besides that, you can go multiple times the speed of light, because you are not consisted of things that are limited by that.

01:01:33.605 --> 01:01:35.672
Glory to God.

01:01:35.672 --> 01:01:40.347
Anyway, your heavenly father has all the energy in the universe.

01:01:40.347 --> 01:01:59.233
He can do whatever he wants and he can do whatever he wants to with wants, and he can do whatever he wants to with you, and he will do whatever he wants to with you, because that's all that's going to happen on that side of things, in that universe, in that realm, in that kingdom, all that ever gets done is the perfect will of God.

01:01:59.233 --> 01:02:03.623
Nobody ever.

01:02:03.623 --> 01:02:05.556
Can I have a couple days off.

01:02:05.556 --> 01:02:08.579
I really do want to go down that street of gold.

01:02:08.579 --> 01:02:11.635
You know, just one time, lord, just one time.

01:02:11.635 --> 01:02:25.538
You know, and you're going to hear it, you know, if you, first of all your new body, will not permit you to think like that, you will never have those kinds of thoughts.

01:02:25.538 --> 01:02:27.074
You will never.

01:02:27.074 --> 01:02:31.585
You know, I just wish I could go down that street of gold one time.

01:02:31.585 --> 01:02:34.719
I wish I could see all those.

01:02:34.719 --> 01:02:38.034
You'll never have those thoughts.

01:02:38.034 --> 01:02:46.396
You'll never I say never you will never, never, ever have any thought that did not originate with God.

01:02:46.396 --> 01:02:56.081
Your own thinking, your own will has been parked at the resurrection.

01:02:56.081 --> 01:03:00.268
You know it.

01:03:00.268 --> 01:03:00.835
You got to get this straight.

01:03:00.835 --> 01:03:01.663
I mean, if you don't, but it listen.

01:03:01.663 --> 01:03:10.594
If you got to get this straight, I mean if you don't listen, if you don't get it straight, on this side you're going to have to go to remedial classes.

01:03:10.594 --> 01:03:16.264
On the other side You're going to have.

01:03:16.264 --> 01:03:18.614
You know why?

01:03:18.614 --> 01:03:21.855
Didn't you believe you know these over here?

01:03:21.855 --> 01:03:23.684
They never have heard this, but you heard this and you just didn't.

01:03:23.684 --> 01:03:23.900
You believe you know these over here.

01:03:23.900 --> 01:03:24.952
They never have heard this, but you heard this.

01:03:24.952 --> 01:03:28.340
And you just thought you were going to get your vacation anyway.

01:03:28.340 --> 01:03:35.829
Hallelujah, yeah, you're going to have to go to remedial Sunday school.

01:03:35.829 --> 01:03:39.322
Oh Jesus, that would be embarrassing, wouldn't it?

01:03:39.322 --> 01:03:41.454
Hallelujah, glory to God.

01:03:41.454 --> 01:03:45.108
That would be embarrassing, wouldn't it?

01:03:45.108 --> 01:03:51.878
Hallelujah, glory to God, the very seed of God.

01:03:51.878 --> 01:03:52.820
The Bible says.

01:03:52.820 --> 01:04:05.298
It's a very interesting scripture in 1 John that says if you have been born again, you are God's seed and there is no sin in you.

01:04:05.298 --> 01:04:26.005
What that means is simply this that the act of rebirth into new creation and under a new law is not subject to the law of sin and death, amen.

01:04:26.005 --> 01:04:39.637
That's why it's said in another place where it says I say to you that there are some sins that do not lead to death.

01:04:39.637 --> 01:04:48.251
That was Apostle John saying that.

01:04:48.251 --> 01:04:50.677
He said there's some sins that don't lead to death.

01:04:50.677 --> 01:04:51.538
And why is that?

01:04:51.538 --> 01:04:54.530
Because you're not under the law of sin and death.

01:04:54.530 --> 01:05:02.523
Now you may do some things that you shouldn't do and you may do some things that you shouldn't do and you may do some things you need to repent of, amen.

01:05:02.523 --> 01:05:14.615
But you are listen you are not in that place where pentecost tried to and and old-time evangelical preachers tried to push you commit that one sin.

01:05:14.615 --> 01:05:15.798
Oh, go over there.

01:05:15.798 --> 01:05:19.032
If you don't, if you don't get that under the blood, you're going to hell.

01:05:19.032 --> 01:05:24.164
You know, know, well, I'm not too sure that's exactly right.

01:05:24.164 --> 01:05:51.338
I'm not saying just go out and do whatever you want, but I am saying that as you progress in your sanctification amen, there's going to be a lot less of that going on than there used to be, and it's starting to get to the place where it's corrections, because those sins aren't going to lead to death.

01:05:51.338 --> 01:05:55.117
You have been set free from the law of sin and death.

01:05:55.117 --> 01:06:00.409
You've either got to come, you've either got to be in one place or you've got to be in the other.

01:06:00.409 --> 01:06:05.297
You're either under the law of sin and death or you're under the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus.

01:06:05.297 --> 01:06:12.179
If you're under the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus, it says you have been set free from the law of sin and death.

01:06:12.179 --> 01:06:13.202
Amen.

01:06:13.202 --> 01:06:21.038
You can't be living in terror all the time that God's going to send you to hell when you live under the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus.

01:06:21.038 --> 01:06:24.021
I am not a sinner, saved by grace.

01:06:24.021 --> 01:06:27.284
I am a son or daughter of God.

01:06:27.284 --> 01:06:27.925
Amen.

01:06:27.925 --> 01:06:31.996
I have a different kind of a destiny.

01:06:31.996 --> 01:06:39.000
I already have two feet and three quarters of my body in this new thing called the new creation.

01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:39.943
Amen.

01:06:39.943 --> 01:06:48.617
I'm just anchored here on earth as long as he wants me here, and the only reason I'm here is because he wants me here.

01:06:48.617 --> 01:06:51.418
Otherwise I'm going to be where he is.

01:06:51.418 --> 01:06:59.057
But if I'm not where he is, then he's going to be where I am Because we are already joined.

01:06:59.057 --> 01:07:00.289
I wish I could preach.

01:07:00.289 --> 01:07:02.233
We are already joined.

01:07:02.233 --> 01:07:02.775
He wish I could preach.

01:07:02.775 --> 01:07:03.255
We are already joined.

01:07:03.255 --> 01:07:07.603
He, that is one with His Spirit, is joined to the Lord.

01:07:07.603 --> 01:07:11.074
Praise God.

01:07:11.074 --> 01:07:14.862
His Spirit speaks to me, amen, and I hear Him.

01:07:14.862 --> 01:07:21.903
Glory to God, and it's going to be like that forever.

01:07:21.903 --> 01:07:24.230
It's just a question of where my residence is going to be like that forever.

01:07:24.230 --> 01:07:28.677
It's just a question of where my residence is going to be.

01:07:28.677 --> 01:07:29.860
Hallelujah, praise God.

01:07:29.860 --> 01:07:52.144
All of this, all of this, came into reality when the seed came up out of the ground and was listen and was unlike the form of the seed.

01:07:52.144 --> 01:08:07.117
Do you remember in 2nd chapter of Ephesians, where it talks about that we need to put on the mind of Christ.

01:08:07.117 --> 01:08:20.020
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus who, though he came in the form of man, thought it not robbery to be called equal with God.

01:08:20.020 --> 01:08:22.237
He came in the what.

01:08:22.237 --> 01:08:37.701
He came in the form of man Because when he left he looked like a man, but he was in a different form.

01:08:37.701 --> 01:08:38.662
Now, how do I know that?

01:08:38.662 --> 01:08:45.882
Because nobody ever recognized him.

01:08:45.882 --> 01:09:03.747
They never, you know, and some of the people that he appeared to on that day had known him his whole life, or they had known him their whole life James, for example, his other brothers, and they didn't know their whole life.

01:09:03.747 --> 01:09:06.412
James, for example, his other brothers, and they didn't know who he was.

01:09:06.412 --> 01:09:10.202
He had to tell them look, look here.

01:09:10.202 --> 01:09:12.596
Here, here's the nail prints.

01:09:12.596 --> 01:09:14.376
Here's the place on my side.

01:09:14.376 --> 01:09:16.315
Go ahead, put your hands there, feel it.

01:09:16.315 --> 01:09:20.119
I have flesh and blood, like you, give me something to eat.

01:09:20.119 --> 01:09:29.993
He did all those things just to convince them that he was who he was saying he was, but he had a different form.

01:09:29.993 --> 01:09:33.542
Glory to God, hallelujah.

01:09:33.542 --> 01:09:37.518
He was the first of the new creation.

01:09:37.518 --> 01:09:54.636
You'll notice that in the book of Matthew there are 14 generations between Jesus, between Abraham and David, 14 generations between David and the captivity and 14 generations between the captivity and the Christ.

01:09:54.636 --> 01:10:01.438
But if you add up all of the begats, you only come to 41, not 42.

01:10:01.438 --> 01:10:03.956
3 times 14 is 42.

01:10:03.956 --> 01:10:08.511
That's because the 42nd generation is the Christ.

01:10:08.511 --> 01:10:14.577
It's the one that came up out of the resurrection.

01:10:14.577 --> 01:10:17.260
The very seed of God became flesh.

01:10:17.260 --> 01:10:46.564
And now that seed of God has entered your flesh and the seed once again has become flesh and is waiting for the redemption of your body, for the redemption of your body.

01:10:46.564 --> 01:10:53.409
Glory to God, hallelujah.

01:10:53.409 --> 01:10:58.637
So there you have it, three examples Abraham, david and Jesus.

01:10:58.637 --> 01:11:08.190
We're going to talk about a couple of more examples of this next time, but listen to what I'm telling you.

01:11:08.190 --> 01:11:31.426
The entirety of the gospel is wrapped around the revelations that are in this, because everything that was promised to Abraham and everything was promised to David, amen, became the gospel of Jesus Christ.

01:11:31.426 --> 01:11:37.462
Without the promises that were made to Abraham and David, there would be no fulfilling of them in Jesus.

01:11:37.462 --> 01:11:47.784
The fact that Jesus fulfilled those promises is the essential elements of the gospel of Jesus Christ Amen.

01:11:47.784 --> 01:11:50.698
The gospel is for all people.

01:11:50.698 --> 01:11:53.639
The gospel is for all times.

01:11:53.639 --> 01:12:02.740
The gospel is for the message of how God came to be in us so that we could become him.

01:12:02.740 --> 01:12:06.166
It's the message of the blood sacrifice.

01:12:06.166 --> 01:12:34.757
It's the message of how God came in the form of a man called Melchizedek and brought the illumination of the gospel to a man named Abraham, and then came to a man named Samuel, who brought the illumination to a man named David, and how those people lived in those epics over 2,000 years before the Christ would come.

01:12:34.757 --> 01:12:43.302
And he came to fulfill all of them and said to the people publicly I am the Messiah, I am the son of David.

01:12:43.302 --> 01:12:46.877
Abraham is my father.

01:12:46.877 --> 01:12:48.155
He is not your father.

01:12:48.155 --> 01:12:55.677
If Abraham were your father, you would do the things that Abraham does, but since you don't do them, you are not Abraham's sons.

01:12:55.677 --> 01:12:57.416
I know who you are.

01:12:57.416 --> 01:13:01.570
You're the sons of the devil and I am not.

01:13:01.570 --> 01:13:03.904
I am the son of God, I am the son of Abraham and I am the sons of the devil, and I am NOT.

01:13:03.904 --> 01:13:06.853
I am the son of God, I am the son of Abraham and I am the son of David.

01:13:06.853 --> 01:13:11.942
You, on the other hand, are the son of Lucifer.

01:13:11.942 --> 01:13:17.752
Glory to God.

01:13:17.752 --> 01:13:28.893
No wonder they crucified him, not because he called them sons of Satan, but because he exposed them.

01:13:28.893 --> 01:13:38.092
Hallelujah, and it's still that way today.

01:13:38.092 --> 01:13:45.720
Amen, the sons of light versus the sons of darkness.

01:13:45.720 --> 01:13:48.252
Hallelujah.

01:13:48.252 --> 01:13:52.293
Praise God, praise the name of the Lord, father.

01:13:52.293 --> 01:14:05.014
We give you praise because of your mighty, mighty mystery that you revealed in Jesus, and we give you praise and glory, hallelujah.

01:14:05.014 --> 01:14:06.713
Thank you, lord.
