Just as Paul proclaimed the mystery of marriage after thousands of years of people practicing it without full understanding, with words that were not so much his as God's, I proclaim to you who have been all this time with out understanding the mystery of birth, which by the Spirit is salvation:
Just as birth is not announced until the time is fulfilled, until the water is broken and the first breath is breathed, so too are those born of the spirit of God. Many are confused by the times between consummation and delivery, saying surely it is not complete, and this is true. Yes, it is true that a child in the womb of God is a child of God. And yes, until it is delivered it is not fully in the hands of God, but also in the hands of the woman...or in the case of the Spirit, this includes both men and women who make up the Bride of Christ.
However...The times of a women in childbirth do not apply to God, but were complete before the foundation of the world.
First came marriage and the mystery thereof, now the mystery of raising up children in spiritual birth unto God.
When the water is broke, this is that water, that came forth from Christ on the cross; and just as we who are His "were" crucified with Him, we were also given birth of the spirit beginning when that water was broken. And soon after the first breath of life is the Holy Spirit. Therefore, Christ said, "Behold, I come quickly!"
You who have not understood, have not come forth and the water is not yet broken for you, for your time is not yet fulfilled. But do not speak against the little ones who have come forth before you--you are all as children who ought not to say either way. Nonetheless, the child that has come forth knows the change has taken place, but those who are as yet in the womb of God cannot speak against them without speaking against God who has brought them forth. And who has He brought forth, but Christ? For such, "to live is Christ."
But what of sins?
Do you not know that after the water broke to Christ on the cross, that He did not ascend for the short time He remained on the earth. and did He not carry the marks of sin that whole time? He did, and likewise so do those who have come forth but await ascension. "But woe to those who offend one of these little ones."
