Agreed. I think I recall you writing something about how the genesis of this new creation will not be after the end times / second coming, but prior - if I remember correctly. Well, I happen to agree. This new creation will spark from the man-child, and will not be the result of Satan being bound, but will be the very means by which the earth is subdued and evil overcome.Michael Sherwin wrote: ↑July 17th, 2019, 4:40 am Yes, I know that being born of the water means being born on earth. I have been saying that for years. And being born of the Spirit means being born into the new creation.
We are able to have physical babies. We have sex organs that develop during puberty that enable a certain biological process by which two can become one, and life be created. This process invlolves the seed of the man, the sperm, entering the woman and fertilising an egg.But I'm not quite getting what you mean by the seed. To me the seed of the woman is the Christ within, the kingdom of God within us. On this earth the soul connects our spirit to the body. The soul is of this creation. The soul does not survive the end of this creation. But the seed within does survive this creation and becomes to our new body what the soul was to our earthly body.
We cannot have spiritual babies. Those faculties have not been awakened & aroused yet. But they will, they are already within us, dormant. Did you know that there are structures in the human brain / head that bear an uncanny resemblance to our reproductive organs? Oh yes, look into the sphenoid bone, the third ventricle and the claustrum. Consider the frenulum of the tongue.
Christ was sacrificed at the place of the skull. The skull and Jacob’s stone, the sacrum (sacr-, as in “sacred”), are connected by 33 vertebrae.
Both the tree of knowledge & the tree of life and their fruits are described as being in the centre of the Garden. The one of knowledge enables the production of the seed of the man, which germinates in the egg of the woman. We are all, quite literally, born of the seed of the man.
So pause for a second, and consider how strange of a phrase that is “seed of the woman”. Women do need produce seed. It’s true, what woman ever had testicles?
The Hebrew word haya (חיה) is an interesting one, with two applications in the Gen 1-3 narrative (which is surely the backdrop of this entire probation, serving as the basis of all the scriptures since and all the covenants God has made). The first is in reference to the tree which has been guarded from us ever since, the tree of life. This is before the Fall.
The second is in reference to the name Eve, her named by Adam. I don’t know yet why in the scriptures Adam is depicted having named her following the Fall & pronouncement of curses, while in the Endowment Adam names her in the Outer World prior to them even being admitted to God’s paradise. But I will, and feel it will be a breakthrough.
We can have physical babies, by the seed of the man activated by the fruit of knowledge of good & evil. What will inaugurate the new creation? Through, after so long a time, Adam and Eve are able to pass the cherubim & revolving flaming sword. An opportunity so precious and sweet, it was bought and paid for with the Blood of a God.
The first Adam was made a “living soul”, a phrase associated with the animals in the Creation episode. An animal spirit. But the second Adam will be a “life-giving spirit”. One capable of bearing spiritual offspring, and claimant of the attendant priesthood which accompanies this. This is the Adam who will bruise the head of the serpent.
The earth is absolutely a symbol of the feminine, correct. And her husband is the heaven.Not only is water the symbol for the feminine the earth is also. The earth brings forth her seed.
But your second statement is incorrect, the earth does not produce seed. Which is why if desire her bounty, we must till her and plant a seed ourselves. Does the earth produce her own seed, from which plants and fruits shoot and sprout up spontaneously? Not anymore, but in the new creation she will. For now, she brings forth her children through the toil of the man, and the fertilising rain / seed of the “heaven”.
Remember how both trees & fruits are described as being located in the “midst” of the Garden. So what, are both trees in the middle somehow?Your seed is the seed of the woman within. Your name is your identity which is your spirit. Without the seed of the woman there is no resurrection.
Yeah, one lies at the base of Jacob’s ladder, the earth, where male seed and female egg are combined to germinate into new life. Very much in the centre of “garden”. Which corresponds with the Holy of Holies - the structure of Eden and that of the Temple are the after all, since the Temple is naught but a re-creation of that primordial paradise.
One lies at the peak of the stairway, you know, to heaven I said it before and will say it again, it really is all about sex. That’s where God’s power comes from after all, through generating life, making order from chaos; hence Satan’s occult circles imitating God through sex magic rituals, as well as symbolism, which is truly everywhere before our eyes, if they are open to see.
Well physical babies are conceived and develop at the base of the ladder, germinated from the seed of the man and then born of the woman. And where is the brain? Well, it also lies in the midst.
I contend spiritual babies are conceived and develop at the summit of Israel’s stairway, germinated by the seed of the woman and then born of the man.
Ever heard of the Druze people? They apparently believe the messiah will be born of a man. Another fun fact, the DNA of the Shroud of Turin curiously contained a high amount of Druze.
Agreed. Just wait till the end, we will see a cosmic showdown between gods that will utterly overshadow their spiritual conflict leading up to the Exodus from Egypt. The seed of the serpent will be overcome, and purged from our DNA.The seed of the serpent are the tares planted by the devil and since tares produce no viable seed they are not resurrected. They are burnt.
The cosmic egg of the man, is yet waiting to be awoken and fertilised by the seed of the woman. And the woman, Eve, is, like her brother, a serpent, the mother of all living. When he receives the seed, then out of the darkness Light emerges, and a new Creation dawns. Thanks be to our God for ever for the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
