The Sealing of the Saints [PART 3]

8/25


     Paul said "therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation; Old things are passed away and behold all things are become new. The cutting away of the flesh represents circumcision. Our name represents our nature, personality, traits and characterizes.
     The name Jesus means savior. The bible says that they shall call his name Jesus for he shall save his people from their sins. On the breast plate of the high priest was engraved the 12 names of the 12 tribes of Israel which all had significant meaning. We will look at Reuben, one of the tribe whose name was sealed on the breast plate of the high priest.
     The name Reuben means "behold a son" See God has brought us unto himself and placed us in a whole new bracket of humanity. He said " as many as received him gave he power to become sons" We were at one time strangers and aliens but now he said in Corinthians "we are no more strangers and aliens to the commonwealth of God but we are heirs and joint heirs with Christ" We are now in a different bracket, at one time we were like dogs because we came from the gentile generation and had no hope or part in the Kingdom of God.
     Because he loved us and gave hi life for us and has called us unto himself we are now his own. Bought with a price, Jesus carries upon his person a receipt printed with the ink of his own blood, and our names are now written on the papyrus of his heart.
     Reuben means behold a son, this speaks of and represents our relationship to God. Jesus taught his disciples to pray saying "our Father" The scripture says in Romans that we cry abba Father which means "our own Father" our source and provider, our originator, our beginning. The scripture says "though we be sons we differ nothing from a servant until we grow up and come to maturity" this is another message and will be taught on later.
     There is a relationship of Father and son that can never be realized as a servant. This is the reason of the new birth, we must be born in the house and of the house of the King for us to become an heir. Hear me saints, know ye not that ye were passed from death unto life. Jesus told Nicodemas "ye must be born again" There is a purpose of the new birth, that purpose is to have a direct link the Father, it is the only way we can get into the kingdom of the King and have the right as a son of the King. As a son of the King we take precedence above all else. We carry the dna of our Father God and there is no paternity test that can discredit us.
     Behold a son, the name Reuben implies us as sons growing up to maturity and full stature.
The prodigal son realizing that without a relationship with the Father he has nothing and will be nothing. The prodigal leaving home speaks of man in his own strength and ability failing on his own. Powerless and defeated but after he reconnects with the Father he receives a new robe and eat of the fat and a ring on his finger. So much truth here, this will be written in another message. Connecting with the Father, having a relationship with God.
