For you bring certain strange things to our ears. We want to know therefore what these things mean.” Now all the Athenians and the strangers living there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing.

However, the Most High does not dwell in houses and temples made with hands; as the prophet says, Heaven [is] My throne, and the earth the footstool for My feet.

We see that the temple is more of spiritual than what men think it to be in the physical.

Altars are places of open invitation and relationship with God, however conversations of the temple came into place, when the man of God David had a conviction within himself that he dwells in a good house and yet the Ark of the Covenant of God dwells in tents. We see that by God telling him that his hands are full of bloodstains and that his son Solomon will be the one to build it, this did not mean that Solomon had clean hands and that he had not killed anyone, because we see his father David clearly instruct him to take vengeance over those who let`s per say disturbed him [David] while he was still king.

To the man of God David, what he saw from the presence of God with the Ark of the Covenant [the blessing on ObedEdom`s house, the young boys who stretched-out their hands to support the Ark from falling], this is what moved him to seek to build God a temple although he proposed to build it with the reason that he dwelt in a better place, because we see ׉ 7cassandra://AGsFCUz-0PZl-0qGGhpmrGhRhHrTsafVz0Of5kz4vD03`iN  ĦdiN  Ħc(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://H1bcNN1b8SbVcTUPComKt2dJ1ze8of8LwbEweJt6ju8 `׉ 7cassandra://5lYFHYE8rtJl1WmUrFQsGxiPYfhEOMMESbd_kaWr9GMC`s׉ 7cassandra://UKachOUVAb9TrM24EvY2m-BZNC3Pj2Ktu5LihLtTrsM4/`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://rRFhSqAW3YlNAlMsBJfD6l8TLpsXuc9ks6l7rFJ5QEs `׉ 7cassandra://dq-i-Q2dor6QeX0AQxhH3xULPTTeVolinc9jddhR9TgH`s׉ 7cassandra://6-eilIL_Or82gTgJMjGMHso-5PLpmZl0vsFM89NidTk4`iN  Ħ׉Ethat what inspired him to go for the Ark was the blessing he heard on ObedEdom`s house, as we know that it is the presence of God that makes a temple, just as we are, due to His presence in us. We clearly later see the man of God Solomon build the temple as instructed by his father David who was directed by God to do the same. 1 Kings 6:19 tells us “And he prepared the Holy of Holies in the inner room in which to set the ark of the covenant of the Lord.” From this scripture we see that the Holy of Holies was set because of the presence of God with the Ark of the Covenant, however we see in the initial stages as revealed to us in 1 Kings 6:11-14, “Now the word of the Lord came to Solomon, saying, ׉ 7cassandra://UKachOUVAb9TrM24EvY2m-BZNC3Pj2Ktu5LihLtTrsM4/`iN  Ħe׉EConcerning this house which you are building, if you will walk in My statutes, execute My precepts, and keep all My commandments to walk in them, then I will fulfill to you My promises which I made to David your father.

So Solomon built the house and finished it.” We see a conditional instruction given to the man of God Solomon as an individual for God to honor the house he was building, and after this condition, we see that after his acceptance, he was graced to finish it. This was the same scenario when the Law was set before the Israelites, and another time when the Israelites demanded for a king; the truth is that it is important to ׉ 7cassandra://6-eilIL_Or82gTgJMjGMHso-5PLpmZl0vsFM89NidTk4`iN  ĦfiN  Ħe(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://wOJ75lzCFTNtqaQHVg9odJHrjIdkdRO9QomibkUYFJY z`׉ 7cassandra://oZ-Z3xXxEFkx64uA5HOmqqJcZ5Y4u1C3b01nbVPimjw`s׉ 7cassandra://I6rhY7ai4r5E3Pgq-VMXenWNwn3ghK0tEMZw8KB1PSI0`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://1Qr0rMZzKtc4DDLqJZzpCYGOb_5Ce8uET3ONs1LVYYA `׉ 7cassandra://5vKlfIPmkzCTn_blztNrOf3r_2X_bAVyL5Q123MWMxI`s׉ 7cassandra://_eIOK9b1D-J-alYVYb8Q9O8evkz3XtohKVX52hjEU0E1`iN  Ħ׉Elisten, meditate, and understand the instructions of God because they are what preserve one in the course set for them, as we have seen in many portions of Scripture, Samson, Moses, the young Prophet and the old prophet in 1 Kings 13. We see in reality, that the man of God Solomon dishonored the initial instructions from God; meaning that certain things lost place, as we saw that God was even willing to fulfill the promises He promised David upon Solomon; this is not something small, I believe the man of God Solomon writing the book of Ecclesiastes whose major theme is vanity of vanities; this was because of the hollowness he felt, though ׉ 7cassandra://I6rhY7ai4r5E3Pgq-VMXenWNwn3ghK0tEMZw8KB1PSI0`iN  Ħg׉Ethis was not the first time as David also once expressed it saying “cast me not away from Your presence and take not Your Holy Spirit from me [Psalms 51:11]”.

Let’s briefly talk about the Ark of the Covenant. We clearly see that many things that God revealed to the men of old were shadows of either those in heaven, or that yet to come.

So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.” Therefore when the reality is revealed, you are no longer subject to the dictates of the shadow but the reality. The Book of Hebrews 9:3-4 tells us, “After the second veil was the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies, having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a golden pot ׉ 7cassandra://AwU_3T7-p3dHXhTPYirgh8p51j3cNksHGlO7MP8-C101`iN  Ħi׉E:holding the manna, Aaron`s rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant.” Let us briefly talk about these three subjects. It should be noted that these things were preserved under God`s instructions, why? Because He is the God Who keeps records or certain things for remembrance or testimony. Manna; from this manna we ought to ask ourselves a certain funny question, of how and which preservative kept it in good state, because we all know that the manna as instructed by God to the Israelites was to be kept for a day and not to be kept for another day; here we ׉ 7cassandra://C2OvYo_ajdH0bT48etWPpFhwzV_IETRLxzbvlcEcAyk*`iN  ĦjiN  Ħi(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://KSb7GcezmTndmhtISgi5Ahw2cmG8GmCPd4i7Yw3yIYc a`׉ 7cassandra://CYNE-UQ39Bu3dAdemGdvqNEpLzVXEOQIvDgLOh1JTBcН`s׉ 7cassandra://pU1u57s4HEqzQ03uzwx7sHc46MDRYutp59FlX80nlUY4`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://cgM4xcJTldaeMdFwUEK6dCgqJB5_cgtLCNQJNibYQdE .`׉ 7cassandra://pDsoRAgwnZDbmi1y-DgFUUr0zPqjIsGOEbcm3yEHhX8̆`s׉ 7cassandra://bLmMdMFX_IWsR_eyEvqGF_q_JsHpX6xGLOhR1tWbyKM1`iN  Ħ׉Eclearly see that the Word of God is the best preservative ever. We see in the New Testament Jesus hint on this manna in John 6 as in verse 31 He was asked by the Pharisees to show them a sign just as their forefathers ate manna in the wilderness quoting the scripture, “He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.”, verse 32-33 tells us, “Jesus then said to them, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, Moses did not give you the Bread from heaven [what Moses gave you was not the Bread from heaven], but it is My Father Who gives you the true heavenly Bread. For the Bread of God is He Who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.” As seen above, Jesus` problem was not about the manna ׉ 7cassandra://pU1u57s4HEqzQ03uzwx7sHc46MDRYutp59FlX80nlUY4`iN  Ħk׉Ethe forefathers ate, but it was the indifference of calling it the Bread from heaven; this will be expounded on in line with the temple. Aaron`s rod that budded; this is elaborated in details in Numbers 17 as the Israelites murmured against Moses and Aaron, and instructed Moses to place rods of twelve tribes of Israel before the Lord in the tent of Testimony, however it should be noted that Aaron`s name was written on the rod of Levi, the priestly nation as the essence of all this was to prove to the Israelites that the appointments of God are unquestionable.

The reason to as to why it is called the Ark of the covenant is because it bore the covenant upon which God made with the Israelites His people, however with emphasis, what failed the men of old to fulfill as all covenants bind both parties as it is just like a contract, however the difference with this one is that Our Father did not discharge it because we breached it, but chose novation, as we see Christ ׉ 7cassandra://5u5qOhA1MXUYJ4Kjl3UUesj_uCBGQv8Uvy5Ud6IqJY02`iN  Ħm׉Eclearly tell us in Matthew 5:17-18 “Don`t think that I came to destroy the law or the prophets.

What catches my attention is the place where Christ speaks of firstly the fulfillment of the Law which He did therefore implying that it is now vanishing, as we see that scripture tells us that there is no way a New covenant can be effected while the Old still stands as there must firstly be the discharge of the old before the new is entered into; this was done by Jesus for our sake when indeed no fault was found ׉ 7cassandra://9BqwuKxQdO81NI01hFNOs4j7KCRVLn_cy_9YAHo79EQ5`iN  ĦniN  Ħm(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://z3aevXMzIvHScqoJ3sC4-jRtvluoFOKztPSvv4Z2lk0 \`׉ 7cassandra://jCfxVCwC-U33jeeRJy3GI1XfgUiJL-lWCh-erV9De2IƇ`s׉ 7cassandra://pX0lcnnSPCoRTKBtz0n7eOzoyLMITCloX9CJWtgqHRk-;`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://y8-ybj_-r4JwDMX9DufKoRjtKomLvFF-3aQeblauKvE `׉ 7cassandra://aW0g2LCFDcFa9E0dIWyyZN0zsZRaQjOieR7AzscPQJc`s׉ 7cassandra://o5Jv6sr9mVv3TKlExTyvxXIhMQb-ts2NedqJcLBDouM3`iN  Ħ׉Ebin Him as Scripture reveals Him as One Who knew no sin.

We see this truly depicts to us that God honors obedience rather than sacrifice, as He honored the works of these men who firstly honored His instructions of the same.

We realize here that an altar [singular] was defined and erected to handle multitudes [plural]; meaning that peoples relationship with God were to depend on single individuals [the priests who had access to the so called temple with the Holy of Holies]; this I believe is why these men could restrict the relationship of God with His people to sin and yet twice in scripture we are revealed to that God wanted to deal with His people beyond sin, as Isaiah 1:18 says, “Come now, and let us reason together, says the Lord.

Hebrews 9:7-8 says, “but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for the errors of the people.

From Hebrews 9:8 which says “By this the Holy Spirit points out that the way into the [true Holy of] Holies is not yet thrown open as long as the former [the outer portion of the] tabernacle remains a recognized institution and is still standing.” We see that by the fact that these Jews and their leaders were not willing to let go of this thinking of the physical existence of the Jerusalem temple, then there was a necessity to destroy it [physical] so that Christ may access the True Holy of Holies in heaven; this is the reason why Matthew 27:51 says, “And at once the curtain of the ׉ 7cassandra://J55RtRlPSEfBe3yUYpVzBiPs7RgI2dZOBkhPGGyviIc2D`iN  Ħu׉Esanctuary of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; the earth shook and the rocks were split”. Furthermore, Hebrews 9:11,12,23,24 say, “But [that appointed time came] when Christ (the Messiah) appeared as a High Priest of the better things that have come and are to come. [Then] through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with [human] hands, that is, not a part of this material creation, He went once for all into the [Holy of] Holies [of heaven], not by virtue of the blood of goats and calves [by which to make reconciliation between God and man], but His own blood, having found and secured a complete redemption (an everlasting release for us).

For Christ (the Messiah) has not entered into a sanctuary made with [human] hands, only a copy and pattern and type of the true one, but [He has entered] into heaven itself, now to appear in the [very] presence of God on our behalf.” Here we see that just as the earthly tabernacle was, there was also a heavenly one, and when Christ our High Priest offered Himself as a Living Sacrifice, He entered into the heavenly [the True] Holy of Holies [the true sanctuary] with a perfect sacrifice which was enough to cleanse our sins once and ׉ 7cassandra://HXmdzy4_ld2Sth-55A0W8lK7YW7bPUj1uHp-Kj0SVN83`iN  Ħw׉Efor all, and for this being accomplished, there was no more need of the temple in heaven, as we see that the earthly copy of the original destroyed when the curtain in the temple tore into two; meaning that the heavenly temple was also dealt away with as its usefulness is no more after the offering of the most excellent sacrifice. This is why in the book of Revelations 21:22 says, “I saw no temple in the city, for the Lord God Omnipotent [Himself] and the Lamb [Himself] are its temple.” In addition to the above, we see a similar conversation in John 2:14-22 which says, “There He found in the temple [enclosure] those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money ׉ 7cassandra://aeUPd6BPgvF8he0YNteZ6EGwz9F9Ku2WgtamONhY3YA1`iN  ĦxiN  Ħw(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://FDaCI-PvbO8THTBLzxQwiLWLEQB6zMdRx1poOFqlTSA `׉ 7cassandra://MS2rI6uKz58SVBiKwlxIvupXFggp77g-W3SFpcTn-ls`s׉ 7cassandra://jRXPTYz8SLvOg0x4mcV-LZHREkt3apRP_Rf3J54WwDE3|`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://1C45LcYvD9vr5XddSp6M33OvZiYqL4eCWRIacnLM62I `׉ 7cassandra://XxSHVLl0atrhoNRAL84NGFF4usnLN4Gvq-lmEaWN4i4͋`s׉ 7cassandra://0fOs-oQw3ENLXWRaWfZl-cUrq78sq8he5Q5UvCvpkL03,`iN  Ħ׉Echangers sitting there [also at their stands].

Then to those who sold the doves He said, Take these things away (out of here)! Make not My Father`s house a house of merchandise (a marketplace, a sales shop)! And His disciples remembered that it is written [in the Holy Scriptures], Zeal (the fervor of love) for Your house will eat Me up.

But He had spoken of the temple which was His body.” As seen above we see Jesus distinguish to us these two things, as what men called the temple, to Him it was His Father`s house as He honors places of communion or where men gather to worship Him, and we further see that when He talked about the temple, He meant His body, for He ׉ 7cassandra://0fOs-oQw3ENLXWRaWfZl-cUrq78sq8he5Q5UvCvpkL03,`iN  ĦziN  Ħy(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://UAk4nT5sJ-jrcWu_f0yu3i3veT6NhKSJtRAkPXn-7AM k`׉ 7cassandra://hkdrFREL_uOsOZD2pvVO8WvC_XB_-26CQeQbzDGuHVE/`s׉ 7cassandra://nFQ7dJz8MDcM8W6AAKG5JW8vADHU-4Z0jav9hXJMWPA4U`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://KPRXmzTYktPy3gaRjfy-ZGmmQaFSN0eqDsmLMwTUypE #`׉ 7cassandra://6l1GKJLGx1tmFJDK61RaFk6mmME3KNSjGxcDvvwD-YIG`s׉ 7cassandra://0LiSBVJ1j6r6wp1hc48bhJsQxN6Vhrxiw469XwXsYvU4X`iN  Ħ׉Ewas true and serious about it, as we know temples are defined by the presence of God and nothing less of that, for we see scripture prophecy in Jeremiah 3:16 saying, “And it shall be that when you have multiplied and increased in the land in those days, says the Lord, they shall no more say, The ark of the covenant of the Lord. It shall not come to mind, nor shall they [seriously] remember it, nor shall they miss or visit it, nor shall it be repaired or made again [for instead of the ark, which represented God`s presence, He will show Himself to be present throughout the city].” We see that Jesus spoke of these men destroying His body for Him to rebuild it in three days, which is so powerful, for John 12:23-24 says, ׉ 7cassandra://nFQ7dJz8MDcM8W6AAKG5JW8vADHU-4Z0jav9hXJMWPA4U`iN  Ħ{׉E“Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

In addition to the above, 1 Corinthians 15:35-44 further tells us, “But someone will say, How can the dead be raised? With what [kind of] body will they come forth? You foolish man!

But God gives to it the body that He plans and sees fit, and to each kind of seed a body of its own. For all flesh is not the same, but there is one kind for humans, another for beasts, another for birds, and another for fish. There are heavenly bodies (sun, moon, and stars) and there are earthly bodies (men, animals, and plants), but the beauty and glory of the heavenly bodies is of one kind, and while the beauty and glory of the earthly bodies is a different kind. The sun is glorious in one way, and the moon is glorious in another way, and the stars are glorious in their own [distinctive] ׉ 7cassandra://E0q1aqXUgA8pkot4NFcFXudIXwEyf6OxhI3B7-NTOb84`iN  Ħ}׉Eway; for one star differs from and surpasses another in its beauty and brilliance. So it is with the resurrection of the dead. [The body] that is sown is perishable and decays, but [the body] that is resurrected is imperishable (immune to decay, immortal). It is sown in dishonor and humiliation; it is raised in honor and glory. It is sown in infirmity and weakness; it is resurrected in strength and endued with power. It is sown a natural (physical) body; it is raised a supernatural (a spiritual) body. [As surely as] there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual body.” We shall launch into details concerning the spiritual body shortly.

But it is not the spiritual life which came first, but the physical and then the spiritual. The first man [was] from out of earth, made of dust (earthly-minded); the second Man [is] the Lord from out of heaven.

We see the original and intended shape of our lives there in Him.” We see that although God formed the first Adam who was a living soul, He knew what He was doing just as we saw that this Adam disobeyed God at one point, and then the second Adam Who is the Lord of Glory; ׉ 7cassandra://hPopTQgbkVTeBB9Uk78gV4QGFkVtUT-qW9qINAFDbZw4H`iN  ĦiN  Ħ(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://Y6x23xMl3gmb1BSUgwinVZQjSSpG1kv57gqJ7GH4AbM `׉ 7cassandra://3fyMgl0SH-wvxPjDWcCQwZa8pfc6aZ5JM5G9khGSLzUi`s׉ 7cassandra://9-hLGmkMD-SSAI70bNoxqzbGq6IBdn557NsMXIe_6u02`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://N789m1AE6GHM26pEC6NEABQgey7fM4e2p0LuETgMP8Q ``׉ 7cassandra://ZHngOqtlq6X_VHJ7qACcqOJuvNb9K31NTyD9ez8tI6wő`s׉ 7cassandra://zJRnFQf1M7zWA1thAxc2WG9oVECVZsiL-b44reGfP08-`iN  Ħ׉Ethe Perfect One; God`s original plan was manifested. We see that with this Adam being the intended plan of God, there were no restrictions put on Him such as “do not eat from the tree of life”; no wonder when He comes, He told us that He is Life and its giver, meaning that He was that tree in Eden, as Genesis 3:24 tells us, “So [God] drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the Garden of Eden the cherubim and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep and guard the way to the tree of life.” And when He came He told us that He is the Way, He is the Truth and He is the Life, and that no man can come to the Father except through Him, in other words the Tree of ׉ 7cassandra://9-hLGmkMD-SSAI70bNoxqzbGq6IBdn557NsMXIe_6u02`iN  Ħ׉Edlife itself has been manifested, in that no more can Adam [first] access the spirit realm in the physical for that life as it was before when he had an opportunity to before the expulsion from Eden. In simple terms, when God spoke in Genesis 1:26-27, Let Us make man in our image, after our likeness, He created man in His Own image, in the image and likeness of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Furthermore, with emphasis the Bible firstly speaks of creating man; singular, then still from the definition of this man, a female is created, although we see the Bible talking about male and female; and because we see that creation determines the formation, we therefore see the formation of Adam first, then from that man Adam`s rib a woman finds her definition, this is why when Scripture is talking about this subject 1 Corinthians 15:45 says, “Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit [restoring the dead to life].” As seen ׉ 7cassandra://cS0G2h3DoMXP_GWstZafHdgbMZ3PVPdkrFBa3njT9_o1`iN  Ħ׉Eabove, the Bible does not include woman in the conversation of the first and the last [we shall soon explain the Last Adam]; this is because as earlier expounded, woman found her definition in man, as soil was not over yet for God to form her from it, but it was necessary to create her from a man. With that mind, now we see that the second man Adam [Christ] comes as a Perfect definition of God`s nature and likeness; this is why He is the Firstborn in all aspects in the Spirit, as Colossians 1:15-20 [Amp] says, “[Now] He is the exact likeness of the unseen God [the visible representation of the invisible]; He is the Firstborn of all creation.

What catches my attention is verse 19 which says, “For it has pleased [the Father] that all the divine fullness (the sum total of the divine perfection, powers, and attributes) should dwell in Him permanently” and verse 15 which says, ““[Now] He is the exact likeness of the ׉ 7cassandra://VltpiunIRBzbyBIV-NlM52mwpzSVkJ_TfNTqOwT19Qs3e`iN  ĦiN  Ħ(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://lyzA50zuINoZg2hS6CRDbryERQ3_qFhqgBJLxDOt-L4 Q`׉ 7cassandra://hJFBM_O6goqqhxvFNQsKiDaxckAi5KmoPGm_6YIcKfM`s׉ 7cassandra://5sHFFJAypZZRPzrR4-Vtd3GjnZlSdF27b0CsErj8CfA4`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://gFbyZ066H4o-NIZ5B4G4K0sR-xz3jGW3OcGvYXL0QhI `׉ 7cassandra://MkhYs6ewY7UpjSiZuDAO_0Eke6T_d7K5i0I-NC7kiP4`s׉ 7cassandra://Ifis9O6YEsroO9gGu9650mDQAA6COWYZ89ZRjOXlhDs2`iN  Ħ׉Eunseen God [the visible representation of the invisible]; He is the Firstborn of all creation”, meaning that when God in Genesis 1:26 says, “God said, Let Us make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness”; something happened in that conversation which John 3:16 and 17 tells us that, “God sent His Only begotten Son”, meaning it pleased God that Jesus Christ should come, or even that Jesus Christ accepted and said “Let me go instead of us making another after Our Own nature and Likeness”; this is the conversation Prophet Isaiah fell into in Isaiah 6:8, “Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send?

We see that Christ responded to this question by accepting to come, as it is His nature to do things Himself, as many times in Scripture He has done things where questions arose, for instance in Revelations 5:1-7 which says, “AND I saw lying on the open hand of Him Who was seated on the throne a scroll (book) written within and on the back, closed and sealed with seven seals; and I saw a strong angel announcing in a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the scroll?

And I wept audibly and bitterly because no one was found fit to open the scroll or to inspect it. Then one of the elders [of the heavenly Sanhedrin] said to me, Stop weeping! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root (Source) of David, has won (has overcome and conquered)! He can open the scroll and break its seven seals! And there between the throne and the four living creatures (beings) and among the elders [of the heavenly Sanhedrin] I saw a Lamb standing, as though it has been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God ׉ 7cassandra://1FFUKMwBJH0JgbQiQ-IAS3bHf7iJZvRQxUkW25NtVkw4`iN  Ħ׉E[the sevenfold Holy Spirit] Who have been sent [on duty far and wide] into all the earth. He then went and took the scroll from the right hand of Him Who sat on the throne.” As we have seen, even here Christ took on the responsibility to do that. Briefly, we see John the Revelator still speak about creatures; meaning, even now certain things in heaven cannot find a suitable word to describe them including the Lamb [Christ our Lord]; this is why Apostle Paul still saw things unlawful to utter, or which cannot be put in human language. Now I see why Scripture says that one who see`s God has to die, in other words there is no way one can see God unless they are dead to the first Adamic nature and alive in the ׉ 7cassandra://Pb4HHXyscgQLCAJrEfrb48-3ZQWMdVWVPqqiig2fCkc4W`iN  ĦiN  Ħ(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://7yH4mm2Wkb-Mt6mu58QIFsjG07eF_E7JKtL1Aqn89BM y`׉ 7cassandra://vojxO2Abz3AV1nN5ijhGQN5a1MdQMClzlxRWUiC9v08`s׉ 7cassandra://wRlfKjLz0AbbdYi6xzWDPqsN3Q1-XN4U_MaszZHPDg80}`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://8k2ogNrm8F2nhp773xGfrm1PCdKTSKtWyUxwYp3TkDw p`׉ 7cassandra://CJzXDLd2IPLa60ofnRSstRezHAlvYt4bsXDDZJtAWXQV`s׉ 7cassandra://OxmFR1QEouOaPgCD1Q__53m4NQTBTpakHdU-dsFvvvg/`iN  Ħ׉ESpirit. This is why God is specific about His sons and daughters to be only those who have believed in His Son Jesus Christ and nothing else. Just as we saw Eve created out of man [Adam], it therefore calls upon us to discuss something about the Christ. The Bible in Genesis 3:20 tells us, “The man called his wife`s name Eve [life spring], because she was the mother of all the living.” When we read the above statement we realize that woman lost something big, and that man naming her Eve was an emotional experience because of what she had lost; for though man had lost his place with God, what woman had lost was too big for even him to bear ׉ 7cassandra://wRlfKjLz0AbbdYi6xzWDPqsN3Q1-XN4U_MaszZHPDg80}`iN  Ħ׉Ethough both lost much. As we see that man named woman Eve because she was the mother of all the living, for now she is not as we see that the text is in a past experience; meaning that presently she is the mother of all the dead; this is why Christ came to reconcile the dead back to life. The next question is, who then took the place of mother of all the living? It should be noted that Sarah is the mother of all nations [Genesis 17:16], just as Abraham is the father of many nations [Genesis 17:4], which word nations as revealed in us in Galatians 3:16 referred to One Man the Christ Who is the Seed of Abraham; meaning that Abraham is the ׉ 7cassandra://OxmFR1QEouOaPgCD1Q__53m4NQTBTpakHdU-dsFvvvg/`iN  ĦiN  Ħ(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://I-3D_5syOIUPq8jCiy5GBmu0YhROtnS9E2n_DGywhF4 gi`׉ 7cassandra://o_RFudUwR3oLvvfbQF4pAYNES4GAViVp1_A9FREGECw˴`s׉ 7cassandra://f1WcMYkCmoF731rSHpP1wZ7QymgHqqGSKu7g0TmnCHU/;`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://iynOM1odRKtN3VgXer39-TN9AZ-QyPPSDVnWaa15pV8 m`׉ 7cassandra://zrQ-CJ3mQ8omiBGJEl0sYvbLCEeTmfd_F3-9T19iQAM`s׉ 7cassandra://DS8uFR0oQ8P1Lsn1r47PgtS7lvhQkp6YTUXc4mmXWhU2O`iN  Ħ׉Esfather of all believers [faithful] in Christ Jesus. In scripture, we see Jesus Christ return the conversation of “mother” which carried a spiritual bearing. Matthew 12:46-50 says, “Jesus was still speaking to the people when behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to Him. Someone said to Him, Listen! Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak to You. But He replied to the man who told Him, who is My mother, and who are My brothers? And stretching out His hand toward [not only the twelve disciples but all] His adherents, He said, Here are My mother and My brothers. ׉ 7cassandra://f1WcMYkCmoF731rSHpP1wZ7QymgHqqGSKu7g0TmnCHU/;`iN  Ħ׉EFor whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother!” This same account is given in Mark 3:31-35. We see in this portion of scripture Jesus signify something hidden, because, He would say “here are My mothers, brothers, and sisters” or “here is My mother, brother and sister”, however He said, “here are My mother”, we see that just as Adam had one wife who would make many replicas of him, so is Christ, He has only one mother [the church] who makes Replicas of Him, remember His instructions at the end, “go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” ׉ 7cassandra://DS8uFR0oQ8P1Lsn1r47PgtS7lvhQkp6YTUXc4mmXWhU2O`iN  ĦiN  Ħ(בCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://NCszHgG-TiiMUHZFmhRSe1ugj35cMCJ47pGKOxdMAmM `׉ 7cassandra://v0jvhVmFzWbhwGh3vy8vokbWFGiqhwAw99fxHbB6BWAu`s׉ 7cassandra://Ur4Acwp1UZDL1l4XLotwPlzf1BsSEg-Ve34jeNubOUc3`iN  Ħט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://NZ99-PkNk_evj53q2FQtkAwRM4z7Uz2ScVCoE4Ch3vA `׉ 7cassandra://_Lxe0wlgJ19pAF8WAogJ4rBR-8A9YSyUncxdHpgCkDs`s׉ 7cassandra://LsuBlSnud0vq4CV6y9sM4WUqLMCTCCy4QfhOgXKDnVE4`iN  Ħ׉EFurthermore, we see that just as woman was made out of man, and later became husband and wife [one flesh], so it is with Jesus Christ that woman [the Church] was made from Him and of which the marriage of the Lamb is at hand though we are already one Spirit with Him. Lastly, Ephesians 5:25-32 tells us, “Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her, so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the Word, that He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such things [that she might be holy and faultless]. Even so husbands should love their wives as [being in a sense] their own ׉ 7cassandra://Ur4Acwp1UZDL1l4XLotwPlzf1BsSEg-Ve34jeNubOUc3`iN  Ħ׉Ebodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. For no man even hated his own flesh, but nourishes and carefully protects and cherishes it, as Christ does the church, because we are members (parts) of His body. For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh. This mystery is very great, but I speak concerning [the relation of] Christ and the church.” We see that Apostle Paul narrates the marriage relationship with the way Christ loved the church, for He begot the church [saints] when He died and was resurrected, and He in this marriage relationship with it came and resides in us making us the temple of God.
