16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. - Galatians 3:16.
Nobody ever questions the fact that the seed of God was in Mary. You ever notice whatever religion it may be they will never question that. Especially Catholicism they are big on Mary being part of salvation, the virgin birth by the seed of God and so on. They take it to the extreme but they do not deny the fact the seed of God was in Mary. The other side of that is; many don't believe that the seed of God is in them just like Mary. Same seed different scenario, a birthing would take place and the seed of God would be placed in the believer body, you and I.
-The seed of God-
They want to believe it is just the Spirit of Christ somehow and it kind of happens like receiving the Holyspirit.
When it is not, in fact it is the person of Christ. He may be in Spirit form but you recieve Christ. Paul has it all personified in Christ, the person of Christ. Not some figment of imagination or just a pipe dream of someone gleaning from scripture. It is the person of Christ, you cannot get any more personal than that.
I remember having some feeling for that as a young believer but didn't understand it. I knew this personal relationship I was feeling was more than just some mystery feeling about Jesus Christ. It was more personal than any thing I had ever known or heard about. I didn't know what it was but it was personal. I remember when someone would talk about me finding religion my response was "it is a personal relationship and has nothing to do with religion." I didn't know much about it but I was going to investigate this marvelous thing that was happening.
It wasn't long and some very good teaching (God bless my early teachers they were tremendous) I began by the Spirit to see a few things in scripture. I need to share the assistant pastor in the first church I was in, saved in, he is still preaching teaching. A dear brother by the name of Jack Morgan. He and his wife were associates to A. B. Smith who came in through the tent and healing revival movement. He had been associated with A.A. Allen, Oral Roberts and many others. That was my start and it was a good start for me because I needed some sound structure in my life.
So I began to try to put my finger on what scripture was saying, for instance; I knew scripture talked about soul and spirit and even needing to divide it. So I would search for the dividing of soul and spirit. I knew I was saved at least I thought I was but I wanted the scriptures to bear out my salvation. Most of these things I searched were not proved out until I began to see Christ in the believer. That was the key, seeing Christ in the believer by the scriptures was turning out to be the key to scripture.
So long way around you come to see the seed of God in believers by a birthing, something God does, it is not of man. It is the same principle as Mary and the seed of God. It is in you from the time you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
