Born again of incorruptible seed

Monday, August 27, 2018 An in-depth reading/sermon & study

 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.

A few days ago I did the same study with a live sermon audio of this but now I have taken another deep look into 1 Peter 1. Sort of a clearer audio sermon.

Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, reached out to strangers that were scattered throughout the lands that he was addressing. Peter makes various references to the incorruptible seed and the spirit of obedience. He makes it clear that this is due to the power of God. He said something very profound which is the trials of your faith is more precious that things like gold & silver.  What we are receiving is salvation for our souls. It’s that glorious and simple. 

“To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you”. Can you imagine. Live for the gospel. “Preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.” This gospel is more than the good news as it is the power of God that works through it, his spirit and it will get souls saved. It is clear that the holy ghost has something to do with it. It did not come from man. This is not of our own selves as God made it possible. We are to preach that word. We are to honor God and his word.  The trials that may be tried with fire will bring unspeakable joy, and the prophets searched diligently as they prophesied of the grace spoken unto us. For example God was angry as he was with Sodom and Gomorrah and the flood was he wrath too. His grace is sufficient and we are to be thankful for what he has gone for us. It is the GREATEST NEWS on earth.

So, this verse of 1 Peter 1: When read one can sense the glory and closeness that Peter would have had to Christ. This is real, genuine and holy. We are told to be sober & gird up our loins of our mind with hope to the end of grace. We must not fashion ourselves according to the former lusts in our ignorance. In other words once we have been delivered out of the hands of Satin we have knowledge and we know now. We must see and feel the glory of Christ. We must be holy in all manner of conversation. We are called to walk the walk and pass the time of our sojourning here in fear. Work out the salvation with trembling. God is holy and we must be too. We must be in the faith. Hell is real and the wicked and evil unrepentant will parish.

“See that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently.” I can, but will they? So many are lost in a sea of deception and lies. So many are in Satin’s hands. God would like his gospel preached unto the world. The glory of Christ is greater than we can comprehend. God has put eternity in our hearts and minds. This is God's doing and we are not of our own. We were purchased with a great price. When we live in lust and rebellion we are showing God we take it all for granted. When we have vile language we will stand the judgment. We must realize what has been done for us and turn away from sin.

This next line is the bible passage speaks volumes: "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever." For all flesh is as grass as to reference that is withers away. But the word of God is eternal and living. When you pass you will find out hell was real all this time and Christ came to pay the price we deserve. Obedience is KEY!

Christ came from God and the gospel is his word. Without that word nothing made was made. The power of his glory and his word is holy in a sense. It is greater than royalty. We have a lot to be thankful for and our calling is great. We must understand the message of this bible passage in its weight. Peter is without doubt. Are we aware that the door is narrow.

"But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot." We are NOT! Peter had witnessed & seen those who were called had their souls purified through the truth. Amen 

"Though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:" We are waiting for his return and without seeing we believe. He will be revealed when he comes again. Every knee will bow. Can you imagine. 

His blood is pure and precious. Yes he is REAL. Many will parish as there are many wicked and evil people around the world in these end times & days.   Unrepentant those evil people will lose their souls. Turn from sin today unto the power of salvation. Call out to God. Ask him to save you and give you wisdom.

God is merciful and one day those who are with him in heaven will realize how good God is that he sent his only begotten son into the world. If we were saved and did the WILL of his father our reward will be great. He came so we would have life in abundance. His glory is forever. Amen

Peter was addressing his concerns regarding the faith to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. Not sure how these places changed today as apposed to the time of Christ. 

“And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.” AMEN
