Jesus is the Real Seed

Jesus is described as a seed in 1 Corinthians 15.

The seeds that we see and use to grow food are not the real seeds, but they are a shadow of the real and true seed of life Jesus Christ. Jesus is the spiritual seed that was planted in the ground of humanity.

Can he germinate in you? Will you spring up to new life and the coming new creation? For those who will, like seeds get new bodies, so will we after physical death.

“So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown a perishable body, it is raised an imperishable body; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. So also it is written, “The first MAN, Adam, BECAME A LIVING SOUL.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:42-45‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Ongoing Transition, Overturning and Ruin

Did you know that we are in center of a massive transition?

It is a continuous transition, it is massive in scope and is far beyond any one person’s lifetime.

We are transitioning from a human centered world where Jesus Christ is a confusing side issue.  A religious footnote of history into a world where Jesus Christ is the absolute center and supreme of the universe. That is a massive transition but as sure as the nose on my face, it is happening.

Everything not of Jesus Christ is being dramatically shaken and ruined until Jesus Christ is Supreme. First in line for this is His people His church, in fact this over-turning and shaking results from God building the real church, his church right in the midst of, out from under and away from our human-focused organizations and systems of government and religious traditions.

We have said for generations only what is of God will remain, well we are experiencing that process… and this process often hurts, it may be very confusing and painful. In fact humanity has been experiencing it for  of years.

Ezekiel 21:26 thus says the Lord God, ‘Remove the turban and take off the crown; this will no longer be the same. Exalt that which is low and abase that which is high. 27 A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, I will make it. This also will be no more until He comes whose right it is, and I will give it to Him.’

Ephesians 1:9 He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Him 10 with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of the times, that is, the summing up of all things in Christ, things in the heavens and things on the earth.

Don’t let it surprise or scare you as it increasingly happens and do not resist the shaking, let go of the nonsense when he rips it from you.

Please share this if it blessed you!

Jesus Christ IS Salvation

Do you realize that Jesus said that the Old Testament was about him? Think about that for a moment. It is found in Luke 24:27, 32?  He taught this to his disciples after his resurrection giving the early church the key which unlocks all of scripture. Jesus Christ himself is the key to interpreting the Old Testament, he brings unity to all of scripture and I believe was the secret to the effectiveness of the early church we read about in Acts and the epistles.

If Jesus is really the key to interpreting all of scripture and I believe that he is, then it is theologically accurate and appropriate to insert the name of Jesus Chirst into many Old Testament passages. I’ve done this in the past with other popular verses  like with Joshua 1:8 and it brings scripture to life like nothing I’ve seen. So I want to do it again with this post.

While making my final edits to my book From His Side, I am working on the chapter in which Salvation comes out of the Lord as a woman and speaks directly to a group of Christians. While searching the scriptures about places regarding salvation. I stumbled upon the amazing 68th Psalm.

Psalm 68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden. The God who is our salvation. Selah. 20 God is to us a God of deliverances; and to God the Lord belong escapes from death. – NASB

Now insert the Lord Jesus Christ into this verse and watch it come to life:

Psalm 68:19 (in fullness) Blessed be the Lord Jesus Christ, who daily bears our burden. The Lord Jesus who is our salvation. Selah.  20 Jesus Christ is to us a God of deliverance; and to Jesus Christ belong escapes from death.

By doing this we can now see that Jesus Christ himself IS salvation.

Jesus Christ is salvation, its not something he did or we have to do, he himself is salvation.

And so belief and faith and trust in him is itself salvation coming into our lives.

This also agrees with countless scriptures in the gospels, Isaiah and many other places, for example; Galatians 3:13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree” 14 in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the gentiles, so that we would receive the promised of the Spirit through faith.

My book From His Side is being submitted to publishers now. In this book Salvation himself comes out of the Lord Jesus and speaks to a small group of Christians, Salvation is just one of forty different aspects of Christ who emerge from his side and speak in first person.  If you want to know the Lord in a deeper way then this book is for you.
