Hidden In Plain Sight

Double blog this week turns out I missed one last week, it can happen. The mystery of God is spelt out clearly in His word and plain to see yet for reasons remains hidden and obscure. The bible declares that If any man be in Christ he is a new creature. Adam was the first of the human species, The book of Corinthians says the first man Adam became a living being, then Jesus comes and the term used for Him is the “last Adam”. He was the game changer. A new species on the planet It says that the last Adam became a life giving Spirit.

Talk about an upgrade, I was teaching on the subject of origin to some people trying to explain it clearly when this phrase popped up in my spirit. “Your mum and dad aren’t the father of your spirit”. That nails it, our source has changed we are spirit beings of whom God is the Father. Jesus is the first born of many brethren, we have become part of the Christ. He the head we his body, an ongoing incarnation on the earth. A preacher said it this way “ the Christos were God and man merge seamlessly. God inhabiting a people on the earth by His Spirit, to the point were it says in Ephesians that His plan is to fill us with Himself.

When this truth first really grabbed me my first thought was “I’m not even who I think I am”. I’m in bible terms a new creature of whom God is the Father. MInd melt. Religion wants to get Adam to behave, Christianity wants to get a people to begin to get hold of what God is really up to.

These truths are not hidden between the lines in obscure passages of scripture but are written plainly, it’s just hard to comprehend the scope of it. It is the most incredible thing happening on the planet, period.
