Genesis 1 the beautiful God of Life
Tells Adam: Be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28)
As a son of God
King subdue the earth
By your offspring -- through their birth
Defeat temptation at the tree with patience
Then there’s life forever after this brief probation
But king Adam and queen Eve were shaken
By the deceiving schemes of Satan
Seen in Cain when He murdered Abel because of fiendish cravings
Evil’s reigning
Now from the womb we are pagan
Deep enslavement in all people/nations
But Genesis 3:15 the statement
God promises to recreate them
A Seed from Eve will crush the head of the serpent to end the rule and deeds of Satan
Now that the whole human race is ruined
By grace God will recreate a new one
This is His promise and He’s faithful to it
All of Scripture displays the way He proved it
Through the offspring of Eve God promises to conquer sin then all things redeemed
Through Seth then Enosh was conceived
Men like Enoch in this promised believed
See how the line of Seth is contrasted with the cursed line of Cain who are all blasphemous
Consider Enoch who descends from Seth
Through fellowship with God he’s exempt from death
Amidst wickedness God will choose in grace
To make through Noah a new human race
He’s a new-Adam who's in the godly line
God tells him: Be fruitful and multiply
But sinners serve self as their god
Seen in the acts of that Babel squad
So the nations get scattered abroad
But through Abraham they'll be brought back to God
Though enslaved by the flesh
Satan and death
Through Abraham’s Seed all nations get blessed
In this covenant with Abraham we see
The promise of His new creation family
(but how when his wife Sarah can’t conceive? And Abraham is an old man indeed)
Cause in Isaac’s birth we see this will be a supernatural-resurrection humanity
Isaac sets the pattern for a second Adam
At Mt. Moriah you can say a resurrection happened (Hebrews 11:19)
Saved from his daddy’s knife at the sacrifice
A ram’s killed instead to take back his life
Foreshadowing the Offspring who’s born
To be the Substitute caught in the thorns
Then Isaac’s son Jacob declares to Judah
His offspring will be the cherished Ruler
Through the promise of Offspring
There'll be a second Adam
Divine-Human Son of God King
The promised Offspring to conquer death and Satan
Came through Judah -- Boaz -- Jesse -- David
Yahweh promised in 2 Samuel 7 to David that his Offspring and Descendant
Would be King forever (Daniel 7)
This is the divine Son of Man of heaven
This truth’s evident
See Matthew 1:1 the very first verse of the New Testament
Literally the Genesis of Jesus Christ
Son of David
Son of Abraham
It states the span of God’s new creation plan
To recreate His people before He remakes the land
He’s the Seed of Judah
Ruth and David
Whom God the Father brought out of the tomb He raised Him
As the firstborn of the new creation
Corporate resurrection union language
From every race and people group He’s making
His Jew-Gentile true human nation
Though they used to hate Him as ruined pagans
With a new human nature they’re moved to praise Him
There's two kinds of humans
The offspring of God or seed of Satan who are blind and ruined
But praise the Father for His wise solution
His Son would be fully divine and human
As the Seed of Abel to find/pursue them
And suffer for the cosmic crimes they’re doing
He paid the eternal fine that’s due them
Then resurrected to apply it to them
By His Spirit who in time renewed them
By providing a justifying faith
Their abiding in the true Vine who prunes them
Now in Christ it’s a lively union
Galatians 3:16 it’s simple bruh
The Seed of Abraham is in the singular
It’s Christ we can see this
But 3:29 we’re offspring by being united to Jesus
Children of the Spirit and of promise
For all in Christ New Jerusalem is who their Mom is
We’re resting in grace
Accepted by faith
(but how did God save Old Testament saints?)
Abraham’s true children from sin they’re redeemed
Waiting for the Seed singularly
But they were united to Christ forgiven and free
By faith in the promise they’re in Him like me
Though they were physical seed visibly
They had new creation hearts within they believed
In Messiah to come and not in any deeds
They were branches grafted into Him who’s the Tree
Through His Virgin Birth and perfect works
The Curse reversed and the Serpent’s merked
Just as by His Word He made the earth at first
We’re reborn by His Word we’re His purchased Church
Through His Virgin Birth and perfect works
The Curse reversed and the Serpent’s merked
Just as by His Word He made the earth at first
We’re reborn by His Word we’re His purchased Church
Through the promise of Offspring
Who offered Himself as an Offering
Now we’re offsprings
