The Resurrection Of The Christ Child
Comment: If I understand you correctly, you say that nobody has direct access to God because access can only be through the mind of God in a human being on earth. You said something to that effect during the meeting of Thursday 5th October 2017 (C.868.1. – Part 1.GOD: HIS NAME, HIS IMAGE & HIS SHAPE), although I believe you have mentioned & taught this before as well.
My question is this: If so, how did Christians or people on earth access God these past 2000 years, before his mind was formed in a man?
And how do you explain the relationship millions of Christians all over the world (Australia, Japan, Africa, America etc) have with God, praying to God in the name of Jesus and receiving answers/communication from God personally if the access line for everyone is through just one human being who has the mind of God?
What do we do with these Scriptures in Hebrews that seem to say all have access through our great high priest that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God?
Heb 4:14-16
14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Maybe I am missing something here.
Thank you.
Love, M
Pastor Vitale: I addressed this issue today. If Jesus was nearby, do you really think that the world and the Church would be in the state that they are in? The reality is that Jesus left the imputed Christ, his mediating agent, in the earth until he returns. Christ in the Church, believe it or not, receives and responds to prayers. This response usually by-passes the conscious mind of God’s people, but this is the reality.
In the same manner, paganism had largely disappeared when Christianity became strong. What happened to the pagan gods? They went into potential until such time as people start worshipping (calling on their name) again.
Jesus is in potential until Christ in the people calls loudly enough to implement his return IN HIS PEOPLE:
Ex 2:23
23 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
KJV
Gen 4:26
26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.
KJV
Adam/Christ within men is the mediator, and God’s base of manifestation. The more powerful the Church is, the greater his manifestation in the earth. This is the reality that condemns the Church for our failure to be the salt of the earth. We have let evil erode the great Christian institutions that Christ raised up in the early days of the Church. This is the failure of the Jews that was mentioned in the service today: They failed to bring deliverance in the earth and bring down the demonic inhabitants of the earth.
Isa 26:18
18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
KJV
The reality of God resting on the seventh day is that Adam, God’s Son does the work. Adam was raised from the dead in Jesus of Nazareth…
1 Cor 15:4
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
KJV
(SEE, STUDY ON THE RESURRECTION OF THE CHRIST CHILD, BELOW)
…and Jesus has raised his son in the earth of the Church.
Luke 19:13
13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
KJV
The burden is ours.
2 Cor 5:20
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
KJV
STUDY ON THE RESURRECTION OF THE CHRIST CHILD:
1 Cor 15:3-4
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
3 Because I delivered what I received at the beginning to you also, that [the] Christ [child in national Israel] died because of our sins, according to the Scriptures, (ATB)
COMMENT: Paul was talking about himself as an Israelite:
Isa 26:18
18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
KJV
1 Cor 10:5-10
5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
KJV
4 But he was roused from sleep on the third day [of creation], according to the Scripture (ATB)
Gen 1:12-13
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
KJV
Gen 1:12
12 And the earth[en Adam,1 the grade of spiritual life called], grass,2 came into existence, and the Second1 Adam], the herb [that heals3 the nations], came into existence, and [the Lord Jesus Christ], the Tree [who has] the seed that [begins the process of] reproducing [this new, living] species4 [that he is the beginning of],5 came forth, and [all the stages of Adam’s development] were good because they were in the likeness of (looked like) Elohim’s.6
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day. (ATB)
1 1 Cor 15:47
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. KJV
2 See, Living Epistles Ministries Message #33, Grass, (3 Parts)
3 Ps 67:2
2 That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations. KJV
Rev 22:2
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. KJV
4 1 Cor 15:45
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. KJV
5 Rev 1:8
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. KJV
6 The Hebrew word translated, saw, can also be translated look, and look can mean, likeness.
Gen 1:26
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. KJV
There are two major stages of Adam’s development. The first stage is the female stage which develops him in the likeness of God, which means, similar to God. Similar means that there is some basis for communication, which is the mind, mankind’s ability to think and reason.
I hope I answered your question.
