Resurrection
This writing or letter will deal with the resurrection of the dead. Daniel was a Book of Prophesy that dealt with issues that would affect the natural nation of Israel. The prophecy of Daniel concerning these prophecies took place when the New Covenant was established and the consummation of the Abomination of Desolation took place in 70 A.D.
Daniel spoke of a time when the Saints of Old would be resurrected. The resurrection of the Old Saints took place when Jesus Christ arose from the dead. Jesus Christ is the resurrection.
We see the prophecy of the resurrection of Daniel take place in the New Testament.
(Dan 12:1 KJV) And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. (Dan 12:2 KJV) And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
Notice the language of the prophets and what Daniel states. Daniel’s statement matches what it states in Mathew chapter twenty-seven.
(Mat 27:52 KJV) And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, (Mat 27:53 KJV) And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
This was the beginning of the everlasting resurrection through Jesus Christ. The saints of old were looking to the cross and the New Covenant. The spiritual resurrection started when Jesus Christ overcame death, which was sin, the carnal mind, and the enemy of God. Up until the time that Jesus Christ arose no one had received a spiritual body.
Several had came back from the dead and been restored to their mortal body but no one had been raised from the dead to receive their spiritual body.
There needs to be knowledge and understanding concerning spiritual revelations. Daniel also taught that spiritual knowledge would increase when the New Covenant came. The understanding of the mysteries would be given through the Revelation of Jesus Christ
(Dan 12:10 KJV) Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
(Dan 12:4 KJV) But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
The end of the old world has come and the new world or creation started in us when we found Jesus Christ. The mysteries of the prophets are now made manifest unto the saints. The Son of God (BODY OR CHURCH) understands what the spirit is saying through the language of the prophets. The knowledge and the mysteries of Daniel and the other prophets are now made manifest unto the saints.
(Col 1:26 KJV) Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: (Col 1:27 KJV) To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Jesus Christ stated that he was the resurrection:
(John 11:25 KJV) Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
Jesus is the word, and it is he the word of God that resurrects me and changes me into the spiritual creation that I am to be. The righteousness of the law or word must be fulfilled in me. It is the understanding of the word through the renewing of my mind that resurrects me and, which restores me to where Adam or mankind was cast down from.
(1 Cor 15:35 KJV) But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? (1 Cor 15:36 KJV) Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: (1 Cor 15:37 KJV) And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: (1 Cor 15:38 KJV) But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
Paul first asked two questions that we will address.
How are the dead raised is what we will discuss first?
I know that most are thinking of a natural resurrection but everything that Paul wants us to understand is spiritual and what Jesus Christ taught. Jesus stated that the Pharisees were whited sepulchres and that they were walking graves. All uncleanness or sin is nothing but death. Adam died because he sinned.
(Mat 23:27 KJV) Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
Jesus also stated that the dead would hear his voice even in his day.
(John 5:25 KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
Now if the ones that heard his voice were dead but would live when they heard his voice then me must realize that these men were raised from the dead. Carnal minds only think in the natural but God wants us to be restored as the spiritual beings in mind that we once were.
Adam and Eve were the first ones that God dwelt with and had fellowship with. Adam was the first High Priest of God. Adam was over all of the creation of God. He was the chief ruler or prince that was in the garden. They were spiritual beings in mind and not carnal minded. They did not walk according to the flesh.
High Priest - 3548. kohen, ko-hane'; act. part. of H3547; lit. one officiating, a priest; also (by courtesy) an acting priest (although a layman):--chief ruler, X own, priest, prince, principal officer.
Adam fell and the Prince of the World (SATAN) and carnal mind came into existence. The carnal mind is the only enemy of God that is talked about in the word of God.
(Rom 8:6 KJV) For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
God created Adam and Eve with a spiritual mind and they were what God wanted them to be. They were without sin and alive in God. Adam and Eve were created in the image of God without sin. They walked in the garden of God, which was a heavenly place.
(Gen 3:8 KJV) And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
Cool means spirit in the Hebrew. God walked with Adam or mankind in the spirit in the beginning.
Cool - 7307. ruwach, roo'-akh; from H7306; wind; by resemblance breath, i.e. a sensible (or even violent) exhalation; fig. life, anger, unsubstantiality; by extens. a region of the sky; by resemblance spirit, but only of a rational being (includ. its expression and functions):--air, anger, blast, breath, X cool, courage, mind, X quarter, X side, spirit ([-ual]), tempest, X vain, ([whirl-]) wind (-y).
After Adam fell the whole creation groaned and travailed until the new covenant.
(Rom 8:22 KJV) For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
When Adam sinned he killed all living things by bringing death unto all. Adam alone brought sin and death unto all. Fallen Adam was a liar and a murder from his beginning. The first Adam is our first father and remains our father until the Lord God adopts us.
(Rom 5:12 KJV) Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.
Adam is also the complete human race:
(Gen 5:2 KJV) Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
All of mankind in many places is referred to as Adam. In Ezekiel chapter twenty-eight God is talking to mankind because the prince of Tyrus was just a mortal man and he was human.
If sin is death and we are to be delivered from death then we must realize that we must be resurrected from the death of sin. The tabernacle that we dwell in will return unto dust. God is not interested in dirt being raised out of the ground. God wants what he created in the beginning to be restored unto life.
God wants our souls to live, to be purged from sin; God wants us to be pure of heart. In the beginning Adam was a living soul, a pure soul, and an uncontaminated soul, without spot or blemish.
(1 Cor 15:45 KJV) And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Notice Jesus Christ was made the living word, quickening spirit, and not a living soul.
(John 1:14 KJV) And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Jesus Christ was the living word!
Mankind fell when Adam sinned and in Ezekiel it is talking about Adam as mankind:
(Ezek 28:2 KJV) Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: (Ezek 28:3 KJV) Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee: (Ezek 28:4 KJV) With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures: (Ezek 28:5 KJV) By thy great wisdom and by thy traffic hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches: (Ezek 28:6 KJV) Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;
Facts:
1. Tyrus as a man (ADAM OR MANKIND) lifted up his heart as equal with God
2. Adam or mankind was created wiser than Daniel before the fall.
3. Adam named all living things
4. As Adam all of mankind, which are like the first Adam, set their heart as equal with God’s. Mankind through their carnal minds considers their ways equal to God’s ways.
(Ezek 28:13 KJV) Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. (Ezek 28:14 KJV) Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. (Ezek 28:15 KJV) Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. (Ezek 28:16 KJV) By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. (Ezek 28:17 KJV) Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. (Ezek 28:18 KJV) Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
Facts:
1. Mankind as Adam was in the garden of God
2. Adam or mankind were the jewels of God in the beginning
3. Mankind was created to be the covering cherub
4. Mankind or Adam was created upon the Mountain of God
5. Mankind or Adam was created perfect
6. Mankind or Adam was cast down from the mountain of God
7. Mankind or Adam as the covering cherub will be destroyed
8. It was because of mankind’s or Adam’s beauty that his heart was lifted up
9. Mankind or Adam has a great brightness
10. Through Adam’s or mankind’s iniquities he defiled his temple or sanctuary
All of these facts have been taught by carnal minds to belong to a being that has horns, an arrowed tail, and whose color is red. The truth of the matter is these attributes belong to the carnal beings of this world, which is mankind.
Adam (MANKIND) was without sin and perfect:
God came to restore us back to where we fell from. The Lord will not redeem us unto a greater state than what we fell from. Mankind was created perfect and without sin. We through the blood of Jesus Christ are restored, recreated and resurrected back to the height or mountain of God that Adam once set upon.
The spirit of the old Adam was within us, we listened to that spirit, and we followed that spirit until we came unto Christ Jesus and was born again.
(Eph 2:2 KJV) Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
We were carnal minded, walked according to the flesh, had the spirit of the first Adam, and were children of disobedience. From the time that we transgressed knowingly not being deceived but knowing the sin that we committed, then we were of our father Satan, which is the spirit of Adam, flesh, carnal mind, sin, and death.
It was then that we became earthy and cast down as Adam was. Now the only thing that would feed us and that would fill us would be the dust, flesh, carnal mind or earth. As long as we remain in that state we also feed upon the dust, earth, being earthy and are part of the first Adam.
(1 Cor 15:47 KJV) The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. (1 Cor 15:48 KJV) As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
Whoever we are like is whom we are of. The first earthy Adam is either our father, or the heavenly Adam is our father! We are either of the first Adam or the second Adam.
All of Adam or Human beings are cast down and will feed upon the flesh or the dust of the earth until they die unless they receive the spirit of Christ Jesus. Man was cast down from having access unto the true light and glory of God.
(Gen 3:19 KJV) In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
It is us that labor by our own works by the sweat of our flesh to eat our own bread and clothe ourselves as Adam did when he sinned. The only thing that the old man wants to be is religious and saved by his own works. We want to be known by the name of the Lord Jesus but we want to do it our own way.
(Gen 3:7 KJV) And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
(Isa 4:1 KJV) And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.
Mankind (FIRST ADAM) wants the name of our Lord Jesus but they want to eat the carnal bread of man’s doctrine. The carnal minded want to dress themselves in their own garments of unrighteousness, but carry the name of the Lord.
When Adam fell he was cast down to feed upon the flesh of the carnal mind. The earthy kingdom came into existence and the carnal mind of man began its rule by the spirit of Adam, or flesh of the earth. Adam that had been perfect in all knowledge and wisdom now became the father of all liars. Adam was a liar and a murder from the day that he was born of the carnal mind.
Mankind states that they will:
(Isa 14:13 KJV) For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
All flesh, which is Antichrist will left itself up and exalt itself above God. Adam was ordained to fulfill his office just as Saul was anointed, Pharaoh, and Judas was chosen of the Lord. Adam was the son of the morning but Jesus Christ was the bright and morning star. I started in the flesh (OLD ADAM) but I am finished by the resurrection of Christ Jesus (THE WORD, SPIRIT, OR SON OF GOD) in me.
I am raised, restored, born again, and created a new creature in Christ Jesus. We are the new heaven and the new earth restored and resurrected to reign, to rule, and to sit in heavenly places.
There are only two powers, evil and good, which is Antichrist or Jesus Christ. There is the flesh or carnal mind, and there is the spirit of God or word, which is the Son of God in us.
Paul also ask:
With what body do they come?
Paul is trying to explain that people that think the ones that are raised again with another earthly carnal body are foolish. The bodies that we died in were earthy, and carnal but the bodies that we are raised in are not the same.
(1 Cor 15:36 KJV) Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: (1 Cor 15:37 KJV) And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain.
We must die be born again of the spirit and then all things become new. Once we die then we can be quickened and resurrected.
(Rom 8:11 KJV) But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
We are quickened and raised with Jesus Christ old things pass away and all things become new.
(2 Cor 5:17 KJV) Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Paul states: (IF A MAN BE IN CHRIST) all things become new. We are not earthy no more and are not of the carnal mind, and flesh of the Old Adam. We have been baptized in the likeness of his death and raised to walk in NEWNESS of life. We have a new life of fellowship with the spirit. Jesus Christ is within us restoring us through the spiritual days of creation from where the first earthy Adam went into the earth, flesh, or carnal realm.
(Rev 12:12 KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
We are the ones that are sitting in heavenly places rejoicing. We do not walk in the flesh or earthy realm. The spirit of the first Adam that has fallen and that dwells in the earth or the realm of the flesh is damned. Woe unto the ones that dwell in the flesh and the earthly realm. All that dwells in this realm is the devil or spirit of the carnal man.
(Luke 10:18 KJV) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
It is man that thinks in his mind, I will ascend or lift myself up, it is man that exalts himself and worships the creature more than the creator, and it is the flesh, carnal mind through religion that states it will be like God. God still states unto all that they are just a man and not God. All that a carnal mind will feed upon is the pride of life, lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes.
James describes the ones that are in the flesh:
(James 4:1 KJV) From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? (James 4:2 KJV) Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. (James 4:3 KJV) Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. (James 4:4 KJV) Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. (James 4:5 KJV) Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?
We must be raised from the dead our soul must be delivered and set free from the desires of the carnal mind and flesh. The flesh of the old man must be crucified and hung on the cross and bare the infirmities of the flesh in order to be purged and made pure through the word of God.
The seed of the word must be watered by the pure water of the spirit not being tainted with the impurities of false doctrine. As the natural rain that waters the earth today is filled with the impurities that are in the air, so have the false prophets unto the children of God tainted the pure rain or word of God. Beware of the prince of the air and his ministers that taint the rain.
(John 10:10 KJV) The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Carnal flesh comes against everything of God. Flesh only wants the opposite of what the spirit of God wants to bring. The carnal mind is the enemy of Christ Jesus. It is through the resurrection of the word that is placed in us that the renewing of the mind and the cleansing of our soul takes place.
(Rom 12:2 KJV) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
(Isa 14:16 KJV) They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms.
The devil is always referred to as a man:
(Mat 16:23 KJV) But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
Satan, spirit of man, flesh, and the carnal mind always savor and desire the things of this world.
(John 6:70 KJV) Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
Sons of perdition are devils here on earth ordained to do a work. They are sons that have been raised to the resurrection of damnation.
The sons of God are raised now unto the resurrection of life and have come unto the city of the living God. Heaven is within us and Jesus Christ sits on the throne of our heart ruling.
(Heb 12:22 KJV) But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
Antichrist is consumed by the words that come forth out of the Son of God. This happens in us through the resurrection. As the body of the Son of God we consume the antichrist doctrine and cast it down to the earth as carnal thoughts.
(Jer 5:14 KJV) Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
(2 Th 2:8 KJV) And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
When the word of God comes from our mouth spoken by the Son of God the brightness of the true light destroys the brightness and light of Antichrist.
(Rev 19:21 KJV) And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
That which is sown in corruption or the flesh is raised incorruptible.
(1 Cor 15:42 KJV) So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: (1 Cor 15:43 KJV) It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: (1 Cor 15:44 KJV) It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. (1 Cor 15:45 KJV) And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
I died in the flesh and was in corruption but rose in Christ Jesus without corruption.
All of the word of God that I read I understood only in the flesh or carnal mind so all of the word was sown in corruption and understood carnally. When the word was anointed and given understanding through the spirit then it was raised in incorruption.
The word or law, which was righteous, was sown into my carnal mind that was dishonorable and unclean, but when the spirit of God quickened and brought the word forth it was raised in glory.
The word of God was sown in the weakness of a carnal mind but raised in the glory of the spiritual and renewed mind of Christ Jesus. When filled with the Holy Ghost or knowledge of the spirit that which was sown and that had laid dormant was raised in glory, and in the power of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost reveals the word, gives knowledge, and reveals the revelation of who our Lord is. The receiving of the Holy Ghost is the receiving of the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
The ones at Pentecost received the pure word of God uncontaminated and that had all power. The spirit brought remembrance of undefiled doctrine straight from the mouth of the Lord and delivered the pure light. This is the same uncontaminated doctrine that the Samaritans and the Italians received at Cornelius house.
The Holy Ghost or Spirit is the revelation of the word made manifest in us. The Holy Ghost is the teacher of the word. The infilling of the Holy Ghost reveals the word of God through power.
Today ones claim to be resurrected and Holy Ghost filled that have no power and no knowledge of the word. I do not believe this is possible. To be filled with the Holy Ghost is to be filled with power in the word and to be able to bring forth fruit.
(Acts 1:8 KJV) But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Raised and filled with power to witness the true word not to display signs having no knowledge and no power in the word of God.
(Luke 12:12 KJV) For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
(John 14:26 KJV) But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
People claim to be filled with the Holy Ghost having received no knowledge of what the word of God states. The Holy Ghost on the day of Pentecost brought knowledge of the word and these were raised from the dead not corrupted with false doctrine.
There is a nature body and a spiritual body. The natural body will never be raised again but the spiritual body is raised in Jesus Christ, as the last Adam, which is a quickening spirit.
The Kingdom of God or Israel was restored through the resurrection of Christ Jesus. The natural Kingdom of Israel was sown in corruption of the flesh. On the Day of Pentecost the Israel of God was raised in power and in the spiritual glory of New Jerusalem.
(Acts 1:6 KJV) When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? (Acts 1:7 KJV) And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. (Acts 1:8 KJV) But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Through the resurrection we receive power over the flesh, carnal mind, and antichrist. They were filled with the Holy Ghost and prophesied as foretold by the Prophet Joel.
(Acts 2:4 KJV) And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
On the Day of Pentecost they prophesied only pure word that the spirit brought without any pollutions of the traditions of man. The spiritual Israel and Son of God came forth with power of the knowledge and wisdom of Jesus Christ the word of truth.
The true resurrection had started and is here for all that want it.
(John 11:25 KJV) Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
I was dead but now I live through Christ Jesus.
(Rom 6:11 KJV) Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Rom 6:13 KJV) Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
We are the spiritual nation and body of Jesus Christ. We are raised a new creation without spot or blemish. The carnal mind and body of sin has been nailed to the cross. The Old Man is dead and has been crucified dying with the carnal mind that was destroyed at the cross. Satan, Old Adam, sin, and death have been done away with in Christ Jesus. Everything has been place under our feet.
(2 Cor 5:17 KJV) Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
