12 C – THE “PROMISED SEED” MADE OF A WOMAN
Mat_16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
All of Mankind was doomed under the Wrath of the Law and Death because of Sin. There was no Man able to Perform what was necessary to Redeem Mankind for their Salvation. There was no way of Reconcilement to GOD except through “One” who was Worthy and Able to “Open the Book” and loose the 7 Seals found in the Book of Revelation which is outside of the Sphere of Chronological Time. This Book holds the Revelation and Prophecies of the Destiny of Mankind beginning before the Narrative of >> Creation << in the Book of Genesis and before the Foundation of the World.
John, who was the witness of the Revelation and Testimony of JESUS CHRIST, wept because Mankind appeared to be totally Lost with no one to Save it. JESUS CHRIST gave the Revelation to John HIS Disciple/Apostle after HIS Ascension while John was Exiled on the Isle of Patmos. We will discuss the Book of Revelation in the Future at the Blog – >> The Book of Revelation <<
Rev_5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
Rev 5:2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
Rev 5:3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
Rev 5:4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
Rev_5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
Gal 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
Gal 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
At HIS Acceptable Time GOD sent forth HIS “ONE” and only Begotten Son (The WORD, the Lion of Judah and the Lamb of GOD), made of a Woman and Made under the Law so that HE could learn Obedience and Suffering. Through HIS Perfecting of HIS Obedience to the Law and GOD’s Divine Will, HE Abrogated the Law of Moses and Ushered in the Spiritual Gospel of the Kingdom of GOD/Heaven and the Dispensation of the >> Spiritual Church Age. <<
Act_3:18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
Act_26:23 That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
CHRIST, being Divine but Born after the Similitude of Mankind (Human Mother) was under the Moral Law of Adam and the Mosaic Law of Moses and HE Perfected the Law. See >> the Mosaic Dispensation << & the Revealing of JESUS CHRIST in the Covenants
Heb_5:7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
Heb 5:8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
Heb 5:9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
Heb_2:10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
Php_2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Luk_13:32 And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.
JESUS CHRIST, in the Scripture above Declared a Prophesy referring to HIS Death and Resurrection as Conquering Death and the Grave. JESUS CHRIST underwent the Covenant Requirements of the Holy Law and Holy Justice to Effect Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification in HIMSELF and from HIM to HIS Holy Church.
Joh 17:19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
Joh 17:20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
Joh 17:21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
Joh 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
ETERNAL RECONCILING WORK OF CHRIST
The Manifold Reconciling Work of CHRIST began before the Foundation of the World. The Ordained Work may be divided into three (3) Spheres.
- From All Eternity (Past/Present/Future – No Sphere of Chronological Time)

The Covenants of Atonement, Redemption and Grace were Created from Eternity through the >>GODHEAD; << (GOD) the FATHER, >> (GOD) the Eternal JESUS CHRIST (the WORD), the SON << & >> (GOD) the HOLY GHOST/SPIRIT – the COMFORTER <<
The beginning of the Earthly Work/Ministry and the Co-Equal Co-operative Co-eternal Work of the GODHEAD was the Creation and Incarnation of >>A Body for the GODHEAD <<
Col_2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
