SEED OF PROMISE

 

Galatians 4:25  For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.

Here is a verse, which with this explanation,  I thought might be interesting to those that,  like Peter, who sit with, or worship as did the Saved Gentile, but when he was with the Jews, he wants the Gentiles to be like the Jews.

Paul deals with this, as he did with Peter, he withstood him to his face, meaning he got right up in his face, looked him in the eye, and said:

Galatians 2:11-15  But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation. But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews? We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

"We who are Jews by nature"

This means, that nature, this being born in the flesh, by our parents, makes these Jews of the flesh.

This is like Christians, we have those that are Christians by Nature, that is, Papa  and Mama gave birth to those that was called Sinners, but tells them that they are Christians, just because they were born in a home, to parents that say they are Christians.

This conception, is not, and Paul, he explains that this born of the flesh, and not of Promise, it like it was with Abraham, as god makes this Promise to Abraham;

Galatians 3:14-18  That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto. Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect. For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

As this that I am going to place here, using it as this example, this commentary, which I do not like, as a custom, do not take any other man's words, and this is not to say that they are not right in what they do, but that, as  Paul does, he bypasses all man, even the Apostles, and he goes to this Arabia, which I believe is where Mt Sinai is, and further proof, as I have read, there has been those that now say that Mt Sinai, it not in the place which has been told for many years.

You see, Satan is INCARNATE IN THE FLESH.

Everything that god does, Satan tries, and does makes a similarity of this that god does.

Even using the Jews, he, Satan, he took this opportunity of this Law on Mt Sinai, and set himself in this Temple, this Temple where Jesus comes, speaking of this Temple made with hands, he sets Jews, that which is born by, and from the linage of Abraham, but was born of the Bondwoman, which is saying that, we can say that we are a Christian, just because the flesh, which takes this promise, and makes it to glorify Satan, or allows Satan to be as God.

Isaiah 14:13  For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

You see, he said he would, and did exalt himself above the STARS, in this, these Stars, they are those One Third Angels, which he is given authority over, as god does this, and he does just what he is saying, or this Prophet Isaiah is saying, he is using these Laws, and this Occasion, as he Incarnated, by invitation by Eve, to be able to come into the flesh, as Incarnate, just as god, and way long ago ahead of god, he does this.

He show up in this seed of Cain, as Cain is referred to by Jesus:

John 8:44  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Here is this seed of the Bondwoman, that Paul is talking about, this seed is born to Abraham, by nature, they became this Jews  of the Flesh, or as Paul said:

1 Corinthians 10:16-20  The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread. Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar? What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.

Paul is here talking about being born of the flesh, which both Ishmael born of Hagar, and Isaac being born by Sara, which this show those that are born by Promise, and those that say that they are Jews and are not, even though they are Jews by nature, meaning that they both was born of Father Abraham, but have a different Mother.

This is where this gets, what we say, "Sticky" and this is why Jesus said:

John 8:42-46  Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

" for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me"

Her is this explanation of being born of this Spirit of the Holy Ghost, and being born of this Spirit of the Flesh, or this which is Against Christ, and is known as "Antichrist"

What this says is, you can say you are a Jew, and be absolutely right, since you as a Jew had this Father named Abraham, but you have a mother that was a bondwoman.

This is what Paul is saying, those that took this name of a Jew, just like many that take this name of a Christian, saying that they have this, like saying that they have this same father, or belong to this same church organization, that this makes them a Christian, but have not been born of the Holy Ghost, but born of a Mother and Father, that are by nature, or being to profess they are Christians.

What Paul was, when he was named Saul, he was this Seed of Abraham, by nature, just like all the other Jews, and was called this seed that is not a Sinner, like the Gentiles, which sacrifice to devils, or go to the extremes to prove that they are of this god that god of this world, or telling us that they are of God which is only one god.

Just because you decide that you are a Christian, it does not make you a Christian, no more than these Jews that was there when Jesus said that they was of their father the devil, which he is saying, as Adam and Eve, yes, just as Abraham, they have these Two sons.

This first one, just as Adam, being this first Adam, invites Satan, as this that Paul explains, like Ishmael  was born of this Bondwoman, he was not this Seed of Promise, but was this Incarnate of Satan.

This tells this of this Second Adam, just as Abel, he was born of Promise, or by this seed from Heaven.

Cain was like a Seed that is in the Woman, Satan got to this seed first, as in college, they told us, that this sperm that goes into this female womb, according to this Acidity of this woman, it determines which Sperm, or this that this seed is called, as I don't have this name of this which this is called.

Anyway, which of these that get to this seed first, is this that fertile this Seed of this womb.

So, as saying this, with Sin in Adam, and he enters this woman, his Sperm is filled with Sin, that is, both god and Satan, just like this Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, we can say that this Good and Evil is in this Sperm of Adam, this Adam that is made of the dust of the earth.

This is how Satan became Incarnate, and yes, both Cain and Abel is, they have this one father Adam.

This is what Paul is saying of this Seed of Promise, which is this Seed that god fertile, and not like this seed of this Bond woman, Hagar, which is not of this Promise, which Satan has, and does fertile this seed, even though this Sperm of Abraham, Is there, it is this Seed of Sin, or this Incarnate of Satan.

Yes, in Abraham, just like Adam, this sperm, it is filled with this Seed of Satan, and this seed, unless god leaves this seed as a promise, then Satan, like this Sperm, which, which you can click this link, and it will explain what I am talking about.

This shows the Sperm, that which has both Good, which only god is good, as Jesus said:

Luke 18:19  And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.

You see, when you are living a lie, that is, when you say you are a Jew, even though you may be by nature, it does not make you a seed of Promise, as is  with being a Christian, just because some TRANSFORMED BY SATAN, AS PAUL SAID:

2 Corinthians 11:12-16  But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.

As I have stated, this five verses, you will see me place these in just about every document that I write, and this is the reason, as this explains this that I am writing about, how that you can be a Christian by Nature, Just as a Jew can be a Jew by Nature.

Unless you are conceived of this Holy Ghost, just as Jesus, he came in this body, but this Sperm that Fertile this Virgin Mary, there was no man's Sperm, that is, this flesh which is in bondage, as Paul said.

This Sperm, this was of this Person of this Holy Ghost, and this makes this Seed this SEEED OF PROMISE.

This is what you need to look at, as Paul explains:

Galatians 3:14-18  That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto. Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect. For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

Paul is telling us, this is not just about Abraham, this is all about this ONE SEED, and this is this Seed of Promise.

When you are born to this Jerusalem of Above, god is bringing this Seed of Promise (Jesus Christ) this Bride is of God the Father, or is this Father, and his Sperm, if we could call it that, but this is called this seed of the Spirit of the Holy Ghost.

You that are running here and there, just because these that are Transformed into Ministers, Yes, MINISTERS OF RIGHTEOUSNES, which is ministers of this Bond Woman, this Hagar, which is this Mt Sinai, which is, this Law was a Tutor to bring  you to this time called the FULNESS OF TIME, which is when god fertile this Seed of the true church, or this Jerusalem of Above, which is the Mother of those that are of this Bride, this Church that Jesus tells Peter:

Matthew 16:16-20  And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 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. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

Again, it is not this Peter that Jesus is building this church upon, but it is this that God tells Peter, and Peter tells Christ "

"Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God."

We could say, like making an automobile, we make the first one, and then we make a whole lot more just like this first one.

Of course, there is those that will make a car just, or similar to this original one, as they want in on this Profit that they can make by making what is called : "CLONES"

This is what Paul was, when he was in this body of that which has this name of Saul, he was a Clone.

But god shined this light on him, and no longer, even though they still see Paul, looking at this body that is this Clone, there is this body inside of Paul, which is Adopted, or made after this Jesus Christ, or this Jew of the Spirit of Promise.

Here is the beautiful part of this, god, just like the Automakers do, he can make what we might say is clones, but when god makes those from this ONE SEED, he is not making clones of himself, but he is making MANY SONS:

Hebrews 2:8-12  Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him. But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. 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. For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.

Just for this sake, I want to place this here:

Gaebelein's Annoted Bible

Galatians 4:1

 

CHAPTER 4

 

1. Under the law in the state of minority. 1-3

2. The Son revealed to redeem. 4-5

3. Because ye are Sons; the Spirit of Sonship. 6-7

4. The backsliding Galatians. 8-20

5. The sons of the bondwoman and of the free woman. 21-31

Jewish believers were, before Christ had died, the children of God, and as such they did not differ from servants. They were in a state of minority, as children who do not know the father's thoughts, nor could they fully know God as Father.

 

"He compares the believer before the coming of Christ to a child under age, who has no direct relation with his father as to his thoughts, but who receives his father's orders, without his accounting for them to him, as a servant would receive them. He is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. Thus the Jews, although they were heirs of the promises, were not in connection with the Father and His counsels in Jesus, but were in tutelage to principles that appertained to the system of the present world, which is but a corrupt and fallen creation. Their walk was ordained of God in this system, but did not go beyond it. We speak of the system by which they were guided, whatever divine light they might receive, from time to time, to reveal heaven to them, to encourage them in hope, while making the system under the rule of which they were placed yet darker. Under the law then, heirs as they were, they were still in bondage."--Synopsis

 

But a great change had taken place. "But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, that He might redeem those under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons." God sent His Son from His bosom to become man and "made under the law." He took His place down here in two relationships. First with man, through the woman, and with the Jews, as born under the law. Sin and death came in by the woman; Christ came into this world by woman also. Through the law, man is under condemnation and Christ came as under that law. But that law was no bondage for Him. He fully worked out the righteousness of the law. Yet his righteous and holy life could not redeem those under the law. Redemption from the curse of the law was accomplished in the death of the Cross. And the glorious result of the coming of the Son of God and His finished work is for all believers in Him "the adoption of sons"--that is, placed, through grace, before God as sons. And because believing Jews and Gentiles are sons, through the efficacy of the redemption wrought by the Lord Jesus Christ, God sent the blessed proof and power of sonship. "He sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father." The Holy Spirit was given as the seal of redemption, and as the joy of sonship. "Wherefore, thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ."

 

"Was it possible, then, that any could desire to put the Gentiles under the law, when they (the Jews) had been brought out from it themselves by the will of God, the work of Christ, and the witness of the Holy Spirit? What a gross inconsistency! What a subversion, not only of the truth of God revealed in the gospel, but also of redemption, which is its basis! For Christ bought off those that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons, bringing them, by grace, into a place of known salvation and intelligent joy in relation with our God and Father, out of that bondage and nonage which the law supposes."--W. Kelly

 

Then follows the appeal of the apostle to the backsliding Galatians, who were fast falling away from grace and turning to the weak and beggarly elements. Verses 8-10 are of much interest and significance. They were heathen, and knowing not God, they served idols. Now, as being converted, they had known God, or rather God had known them. Turning to Judaism, to the law with its ordinances, meant, for them, a turning back to the weak and beggarly elementary things in which they were as heathen. They were, practically, turning again to that which they had left--"how turn ye again?" As heathen they had ceremonies, different offerings, and they observed different days by which they tried to please their supposed gods. Ritualistic observances upon Christian ground are more than a perverted gospel: they are heathenish in principle. Some African fetich-priest attires himself in a fantastic costume. He takes a rattle, dances and mumbles something in an unintelligible way. Then he declares what he does will induce the gods to send rain. In a magnificent edifice caged "church" stands a man who wears different colored robes. This man goes through different ceremonies, bows and crosses himself, mumbles something in a foreign language, then lifts up a receptacle before which the people bow in worship. He claims that, through him, blessing comes upon the people. Both, the African heathen-priest and the ritualistic-priest follow the same principle, and the practice of the so-called "Christian priest" is as much heathenish as the practice of the other. And so as to the observance of special holy days, months and years. "Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain." The gospel knows nothing of the observance of days and seasons such as saint-days, Lent, etc. All these special saint-days and most of the feast-days kept in Christendom were taken from the heathen.

 

Then what a tender appeal follows! He reminds them of the former days when he preached first the gospel unto them. In the infirmity of the flesh, physical weakness, they had not despised nor rejected him, but received him as an angel of God, as the Christ whose blessed ambassador he was. Then they enjoyed great blessedness and would have plucked out their own eyes and given them to him. But where was their blessedness now? Had he become their enemy in speaking the truth to them? He addresses them as His little children "of whom I travail in birth again."

 

He needed, so to speak, to travail in birth afresh with them till Christ should be formed in them. Nevertheless, he calls them his children: his love inspired him with confidence, and yet filled his heart with uneasiness. He would have desired to be with them that he might change his voice, suiting it to their state; not only teaching them the truth, but doing whatever their need required. Mark here the deep love of the apostle. Moses, faithful as he was, grew weary of the burden of the people and said: Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swearest unto their fathers? (Nu 11#19); but the apostle is willing to travail in birth with them as his children a second time, in order that their souls might be saved.

 

Verses 21-31 give an interesting, typical foreshadowing and contrast. As they were abandoning grace, he wants the law to speak to them. Abraham had two sons, one by Hagar, the bondmaid, born after the flesh; the other son was Isaac, the son of promise, born by Sarah, the free woman. Both illustrate the covenants of God. Mount Sinai, the law-covenant, which gendereth to bondage, is represented in Hagar and her son; the other, the covenant of promise, "Jerusalem which is above"--the mother of us all--it is the true church of God viewed in her heavenly state; she is free. He quotes Isa 54#1, "Rejoice thou, barren, that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not, for the desolate has many more children than she which hath an husband." These words are addressed to Jerusalem during the millennial kingdom, in the time of her promised restoration. Then Israel, redeemed and blessed, will look back and find that, during our age, this gospel-age, many more children were begotten by the gospel, during the time when Israel was cast off and Jerusalem trodden down by the Gentiles than at the time when Jerusalem flourished and enjoyed the favor of Jehovah. "Now, we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise." Those who believe and are saved by grace are, therefore, the true children of promise. But, as then, he that was born after the flesh persecuted "him that was after the Spirit, even so it is now." The Jews persecuted Paul for preaching the gospel. They opposed the gospel and all those who believed in Christ. But what was said about the bondwoman and her son? "Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the free woman." This has happened to Israel; she, for a time, is disowned and their house is left desolate. "So then, therefore, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free." It would be impossible to be children of both. Equally impossible is it to be under law and under grace. The two cannot exist together. We are children of the free woman and of her only and have nothing whatever to do with the law-covenant. We belong to a risen Christ, with whom we have died, who has borne the curse for us and bestowed upon us life and righteousness, and, therefore, we are free from the law, from its service and ceremonies.

 

III. THE WALK OF THE JUSTIFIED BELIEVER, AS NOT UNDER THE LAW, BUT UNDER GRACE

Although, this sounds very like, or similar to that I have wrote, it may have some views that I disagree with, as he seem to indicate that the Jew today, that is back, he indicates that they are this seed of Promise, when John said this, and was exiled for this saying:

1Jo 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

1Jo 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

1Jo 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

2Jo 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

My advice to anyone, especially you that want me  to live as do the Jews do, you need to read and get this revelation of what Paul got, and is explaining to these Galatians.

It's going to be a sad day, when many, as Jesus said:

Matthew 7:20-24  Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

 

Jesus also said:

Matthew 7:19-23  Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

 

Luke 13:22-26  And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem. Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.

 

When Jesus gets all those that are of this Seed of Promise, as he knows who they are, and has known from the foundation of the world, even before, those that he has PREDISTANATED:

Ephesians 1:3-7  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Since Satan wants to be god, sit in the seat of god, which is this heart, he will tell you that he is god, and has PREDISTINATED YOU TO BE CALLED.

 

Ephesians 1:9-13  Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
