Developing the New Creation Lesson 26

   

     Resurrection Sunday is the greatest day in the history of the universe and I would like to share some things concerning this day, on behalf of the Lord Jesus Christ.  We've known that Jesus died for our sins and trespasses, but we haven't understood the full impact of what happened.  Jesus spoke about the Church and God's new creation people in John 12:24 (Amp), saying, "I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just one grain; it never become more but lives by itself alone. But if it dies, it produces many others and yields a rich harvest."

     We read about the Law of Firsts which says that everything "produces after kind," in Gen.1:11 (Amp),  Thus, it says, "And God said, Let the earth put forth tender vegetation: plants yielding seed and fruit trees yielding fruit whose seed is in it's self, each according to it's kind on the earth. And it was so."  Today, the Law of the seed producing after kind, still operates like God directed.

     Apple seeds always produce apple trees and the apples have seeds which produce and replenish the apple trees, after it's kind.  Jesus taught the Law of Genesis in John 12:24 (Amp), saying He was as the grain of wheat, which would fall to the earth and die, in order to bring forth the harvest of those who would be like Him, the Seed.  Jesus didn't say that the harvest is the same seed or grain of wheat, but one just like the Seed.  An apple seed will produce an apple tree and every apple will be like the original seed,

     When Jesus rose from the dead, He became The Seed, which perpetuates the entire family of God on earth.  We are the product or example of the rich harvest from the First Seed Who was sown into the ground and died.  We were created from The Seed, after Kind, according to the Law of Genesis.  We're not Jesus, but we're made like Him, after Kind.  We're flesh and blood people, but we're eternal like the First Fruit, Jesus, because every seed will produce after it's kind.

     God didn't need to recreate the things He created in the beginning, because He placed a seed in each one, which would continue to repopulate the earth.  This same seed principle was also in the man that God formed out of the earth.  Adam's fall in the Garden, produced after kind and continued the sin and Spiritual death in every human being, because his seed was contaminated.  Jesus was the Pure Seed of God and produced the new creation persons, who were born and created by that Seed as living and righteous children of God the Father. 

     Mankind has never truly understood the full power of what Jesus has done for and what God has now placed in His new creation family.  We've been born-again and are to sow the Seed into the world and bring forth a greater harvest by the Seed of God's Word.  Jesus said that, "The sower sows the Word," in Mark 4.  We've become sowers of the Seed of God's Word, sowing God's Word into the hearts of the people.  Everyone who receives the Seed in the good soil of his/her heart, has become a new creation, created in the very Image of the Seed, Jesus, according to the Law of Genesis.

     The Truth of The Parable of the Sower, is well known in the natural realm today.  No person would plant a corn seed and expect to reap anything other than corn.  Corn seeds will always produce corn, just like peach seeds will always produce peaches.  This is according to the Law of Genesis, which says every seed will produce after kind.  Jesus became the Seed and will bring forth fruit like Him, a new creation form of a Spirit Man in the flesh.  The First Adam's transgression caused sin and death to be carried on in mankind.  The Last Adam Jesus died and was sown, producing Life into Spiritually dead mankind and bringing about the righteous family of God.

     Before being born in the form of Man, Jesus was and is, the Word of God.  He is the Seed that God Promised, by the Word, according to John 1:14 (Amp), which says, "And the Word, Christ, became flesh (human, incarnate), and tabernacled (fixed His tent of flesh, lived awhile among us); and we actually saw His Glory, His Majesty, His honor; such Glory as an only Begotten Son receives from His Father, full of Grace and favor, loving kindness and Truth."

     We've been regenerated and born-again through Jesus' Resurrection and His place of Glory with the Father.  The Seed, Jesus, has produced God's new creation people, who are in the image of this same kind of spirit man/woman, by the Truth of God's Word.  Jesus was the only Begotten Son of God, but we see in Rom.6:29 that Jesus is now "The First Born of many brethren."  Jesus is our Lord and Savior, but He is our older Brother.  We are family from the Same Seed, the Word of God, according to 1Pet.1:23 (Amp) which says, "You have been regenerated (born-again), not from a mortal (original seed, sperm), but from One that is Immortal, by the Ever Living and Lasting Word of God."
