Birthing Forth the 2nd Man

1 Corinthians 6:11-17

V11…but ye are washed, sanctified, Justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

V12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

V13 Meats for belly … belly for meats… God can destroy both… Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

V14 God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

V15 Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and made them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

V16 What? Know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? For two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

V17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

Joined unto the Spirit of the Lord…. In Spirit AND in Body. 

We are God’s temple, the body of Christ, whom He is the head of.

Ephesians 1:22-23 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church. Which is his body, the fullness of him that filleth all in all.

This is so important to hear and understand.  By His holy Spirit we are joined unto the Lord.  We are become His body…. Spiritually and Naturally. 

But now look and see… for the natural man that is the 2^nd man that is Christ, who is the quickening spirit, who is the Lord from heaven… is now become the New Man in the earth that is ruling over all things.  Just as the first Adam did.  But Jesus the Last Adam redeemed us from that death and sin of the first Adam.

Now in Christ Jesus as the last Adam, and as the 2^nd Man, all things are become New again.  In Christ Jesus all things are gathered together in One, who is Christ Jesus.  Ephesians 1:10 reveals to us That in the dispensation of the fullness 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 Christ Jesus this is done.  Our salvation is completed in Christ Jesus and each of us are also raised up out of our body of death and sin, and are swallowed up in His Incorruption and Immortality… All who receive Him are made alive… in spirit and soul and body .  Made alive, not in the 1^st man Adam’s likeness… but rather after His kind, which is His Seed who is Christ the Last Adam, the 2^nd Man, the Lord from heaven, the Quickening Spirit, and is the firstfruit of the Holy Spirit.  Jesus is the One who first walked on the earth in the New Man nature that is without sin and death and is the habitation of God.  Being born again by His Spirit and Washing of Water by the Word.

In the first Adam all died.  In the last Adam, the 2^nd Man, all are made alive again. Those that receive Christ Jesus as the Son of God, the Lamb of God that takes away and took away the sin of the world are made alive. The divine nature of the firstborn, who is Jesus Christ and whom we are one with, is without sin, death and the devil.  Hallelujah!!!

Now, he that is joined to the Lord is One Body, One Spirit.  But this one body has many different members and is the body of Christ Jesus which abides in heaven and in the earth.  For we have One Spirit, and God sets in His body each member as He desires them to function.  “Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth” Oh, there is so much to see here.

So now we can see that in the natural body we are to keep it unto the Lord also.  For not only are we God’s spiritual temple and habitation (soul/spirit), but scriptures show us by the Spirit of the Lord interpreting, that our natural body also belongs to the Lord.

There is a natural body and there is a spiritual body.  God is receiving You in spirit and soul, but sanctifying your body too because both belong to God.  And Jesus was the firstfruit of the Spirit to walk in the natural body without sin or death.  He walked for forty days prior to the 10 days waiting time after His ascension to the Father as the first fruit of the Pentecost harvest of the Holy Spirit. That equals the fifty days which is symbolic of the Jubilee.  Awesome!

God made natural man male and female; and made them in His own image.  Naturally they are in the image of God who is Spirit.  Just as He made the natural temples to reveal the spiritual temple…. So He made the natural man first in His own image that is spirit.

1 Corinthians 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit which are God’s.

Amen.  All that you are belongs to God.  Now through Jesus Christ as the last Adam, and 2^nd Man we can come back to the Father in perfect, completed form, and nature…divine nature…. In the spirit, soul, and body that has been completed in Christ Jesus.

1 Corinthians 15:38  But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

Every Seed after His Kind… God created all things “after their kind,” so it is stated in Genesis.  Even man was created after the image of God and was instructed to multiply and replenish the earth… after their kind, of course.

After that seed…as stated in 1 Cor 15:38… to every seed his own body. And in other scriptures and messages already written, we see that THAT SEED Is Christ Jesus – God’s Own Word….Spoken by God into our own souls to bring forth after the image of His Son… birthing forth us as His Body, the 2^nd man.  Made all things new.  Living Sacrifice.  Oh Hallelujah!!!

In 1 Corinthians 15 it speaks of celestial bodies, and terrestrial bodies, and flesh of men, flesh of beasts, and that the glory of each differs.  Even the sun, moon, stars all have differences of glory.

But there is a Glory that exceeds all glories and that is the Glory of the Son in the Father!  And this Glory we see in John 17 the Son asks the Father to give to us to share with Him, his glory.  WOW! Amen.

Now God’s Seed (Word) was sown in corruption (1^st Adam), it is raised in incorruption (2^nd Man Jesus Christ, Last Adam).  And we see how it was sown a natural body; and it is raised a spiritual body. And that there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.  The first Adam was a living soul that had died due to an act of disobedience.  The last Adam was made a quickening spirit… yet He was all human (natural) and all God (spiritual).

Then verses 46-47 shows us: Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.  Then verse 49 tells us: And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly…..

Summarizing this: Jesus Christ became the last Adam (last natural man in charge) so to fulfill those requirements of that law and having fulfilled God’s will in all righteousness of the flesh, birthed forth the New Generation… where the 2nd Man, who is the Lord from heaven and is that quickening Spirit, is reconciling all that have received Him….and has brought all that is in earth and heaven to be made alive again and is subdued back unto the Father.

Now from age to age, generation to generation… This Word is preached that is Jesus Christ.  This Word is that word of Reconciliation, so that every ear that hears may have Faith come alive and work within them and cause them to be joined back unto the Father, by being received through His Son Jesus Christ.  That Spirit, That Seed has obtained the promises of the Father and only by receiving the Son can you obtain the inheritance and promises of eternal life.

Fear is removed.  Sin and Death is no more.  Even hell is thrown into the lake of fire, along with Satan and the false prophets and beast.  (Revelation 20:10)  Jesus holds the keys to death and hell now.  All power is given to Him.  Without Him and Without His permission we can do nothing… yet we can do all things for He abides in us and us in Him.  Our Inheritance. Our Dwelling place in the Holy Spirit. And if you can receive it, Our Dwelling place in the Father which is in the Son. Amen.

So from age to age, we can rest knowing that Victory is accomplished.  Salvation is Completed.  And the Good News of Jesus Christ continues to be preached and taught by that same holy Spirit who is the Spirit of Christ, Spirit of the Father now working in and through His Body that is in the earth and heaven.

For In Christ Jesus …. We are Washed, Sanctified, and Justified… as One that is of the Divine Nature of the New Man… the 2^nd Man that is the Lord from heaven, the Quickening Spirit.  HE is our Head and We are His Body… the fullness of Him that filleth all in all.

Amen.
