IN the New Kingdom Rib

OUT of the Rib

In light of the recently-written and revised message entitled: The Bear and its Rib, linked here, I was reminded yesterday of Adam and Eve. In the First Testament, Woman was created when she was taken OUT of Adam’s rib and well we know what followed subsequent to Satan’s beguilement.

And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh she shall be called Woman, because she was taken OUT of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh(Gen. 2:22-24)

IN The Rib

But in the Second and New Testament we learn, albeit explained here by analogy, about the Woman’s redemption (the Church, the Bride) when She returns and abides IN our heavenly husband’s glorified rib:

And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven. (1 Cor. 15:45-47)

In these Words, we begin to discern that the only way for the Woman, the Bride, the Church to be redeemed, justified, sanctified and ultimately resurrected and eternally ‘glorified’ on the last day is if She is found ‘cleaving’ IN her husband and through Him. That is to say, by abiding IN Jesus Christ and through faith and belief in His finished works on the Cross! Paul disclosed this mystery when He instructed about the importance of being faithfully espoused to one Husband – Jesus Christ:

Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. (2 Cor. 1-3; Col. 1:18; Eph.1:22)

Oneness IN the New Kingdom

When the Lord our heavenly Husband returns to divide the wicked goats from the righteous sheep at the time of judgment; it is this cleaving, redeemed and glorified Body that will return to also rule and reign with Him. (Mat. 25:32-33) And after a thousand years and a final battle with Satan for a short season, the Lord delivers the New Kingdom to GOD the FATHER:

Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.(in heaven and on earth) For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all IN all. (1 Cor. 15:24-28)

That they all (redeemed Jews and Gentiles) may be ONE as thou, Father, art IN me, and I IN thee, that they also may be one IN us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. (Jn. 17:21)

Recommended Reading: John Chapter 17, linked here.

It is awesome how visions, dreams and/or Words of Knowledge confirm and reveal GOD’S truths: sometimes profound and complex and sometimes simple. And it all fits with Joel’s prophecy for these last days. (Joel 2:28-29 Cf. Acts. 2:14-19) I am hearing the Word Promise. Praise GOD and thank you Jesus Christ!

Keep the Faith,
