Our metamorphosis into God

"Being born anew, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which lives and abides forever." 1 Peter 1;23. Having been regenerated (begotten again) -not from corruptible, but from incorruptible Seed through the living and indwelling Word of God. -Diaglott 1 Peter 1;23.

For you have a new life. It was not passed unto you from your parents, for the life they gave you will fade away. This new one will live forever, for it comes from Christ, God's ever-living message to men.

Yes, our natural life will fade as does the grass when it becomes all brown and dry. All our greatness is like a flower that droops and falls; but the Word of the Lord will last forever, and His massage is the good news that was preached to you. 1 Peter 1;23-25 -The Living Bible.

I cannot say it any plainer than this: "In Adam all are dying." 1 Cor.15; 22. LCNT.

All Adam can do is bring forth death. Death is in his seed. It is corruptible seed having no eternal life. Death is in a baby at conception. David said: In sin did my mother conceive me. He was not slurring or degrading his mother; he was explaining the imperfection of the male sperm and the female ovum, both contain sin and death. All of us were born into this natural death realm in our own order. There is only one way out! "In Christ ALL are being made alive." 1 Cor.15;22.

This is also a process, each in their own order. The same ALL that are dying is the same ALL that are being made alive in Christ. This is a gift of God which no man can earn. No man can sacrifice for it, or even believe for it. Faith is a gift of God! Eternal life is a gift of God! It is a quality of life that only Christ obtained through His death and resurrection. Everlasting means age lasting or life for the ages. He is the Lord eternal, invisible, immortal, the only wise God, be honor and glory forever & ever. the ages of ages, Amen.? 1 Tim.1; 17. LCNT.

He is our rock!

A rock is a natural thing and lasts only for a time. It is one of the most enduring things we know about our environment here on earth. We read of the everlasting hills, and every one will be leveled and made smooth. These are all metaphors meaning strength and endurance. Christ is our strength, giving us inner strength and power to endure. We can depend on him in this natural life. He will never leave or forsake us in our time of need in this old creation dying body. He is the incorruptible, immortal, deathless seed within us by which we are being born again into the new creation man.

Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?
