THE CONCEPT (MAN)
Focus:The redemption of man.
-Redemption is the act of redeeming.
To redeem is to recover ownership of something.
There is no redemption without a price.
-Man
To study man as a concept we will consider two things (Who is a man? and What type of man?).
Who is a man?
A man is a person regardless of gender.
By nature man is human therefore wherever humanity is required there is need of a man.
Now what type of man?Gen 1:26.
God created man in his own image but before it came into reality it has already manifested in the spirit realm.
Man became a living soul through the breath of God.
Man became a body through the image of God.
Man became a spirit through the likeness of God.
John 4:4
God put first Adam in the garden of Eden to take him through a process of his purpose for him, but the first Adam was hijacked.
While going through the process of life, remain a man whom God and mankind still needs.
The more God tries to draw his redemption hand closer, man keeps moving away.
A system was then created which was Jesus Christ.
For this system to be carried out there must be a process.
Galatians 4:4
Jesus did not just hang on the cross, he hung on the cross to represent the filthiness of man.That when he dies, he will be resurrected in the holiness of the father.
Job 7:17 , Psalm 8:4
Why is God so interested in man?
Man is an entity.
In every generation God is raising a man to do his work.
God in search of man is looking for a who and a what.
Micah 6:8-9
God needs a man of judgement.
God wants a man who loves and totally relies on his mercy.
God needs a humble man.
Isaiah 6:5
You have to come to a state of total humility before the Lord before readiness can set in.
Luke 19:10
In the process of the redemption God is looking for a who to save and a who to send.
If you are the type that God is sending, your capacity of participation determines the number of people you will be sent to.
Man needs to be extra careful because life can turn you into a man that humankind will not need.
God wants to be included in our daily lives so he created a platform through which we can become a son.
Galatians 4:5
When a man comes into Sonship,he activates the inheritance of the father and puts it into use.
This is why if you have not come into brokeness,you are not needed.
In the process of God trying to find man, who is to be sent is needed.
The question is are you that man?
That when you come into the confinement of this reality you can be sent....
Glory to Jesus ❤️
