Matthew 11:29 – Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Isaiah 9:6,7 – For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. [7] Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
God revealed his foreknowledge plan he had hidden in the office of the Son in the Godhead because he knew the Son would be rejected – He turned to the far Isles of the Gentiles.
ISAIAH 49:1 – Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The Lord hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he MADE MENTION OF MY NAME.
Matthew 1:21 – And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Isaiah 7:14 – Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
One God took on three offices which were the offices of the Father, the Son, and the Comforter, which was His Plan before the foundation of the world, because by His foreknowledge that Adam would not obey him. God chose to take on himself the sinless nature of the first Adam to give man a free choice to be redeemed by the blood of the Son, who fulfilled the office of the God-man redeemer of all who would call on him as the Lord, to save them eternally from condemnation to Hell by amazing grace faith in Him. Jesus is the Old Testament Pre-incarnate Son who has fulfilled the office of the Son from the beginning.
Jesus is the 2nd and Last Adam who is the Seed who has fulfilled the Son’s Office!
Genesis 4:25,26 – And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another SEED instead of Abel, whom Cain slew. [26] And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.
Romans 10:17,13 – So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. 13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Acts 4:12 – Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we MUST be saved.
The Pre-Incarnate Christ has held the office of the Son from the very beginning.
John 1:1-3 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Revelation 22:13 – I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
John 10:30,31 – I and my Father are one. [31] Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
God made man in the earth becoming blood flowing image he would one day have to take on himself in the office of the Son in the Godhead, which indwelled Jesus bodily in all fullness.
Genesis 1:26 – And God said, Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Adam lost the dominion inheritance, but the Last Adam preserved it for all who will believe and call upon his name.
All believers are called to joy in a heavenly inheritance that doesn’t fade away. How much of your inheritance do you want to receive?
Ephesians 1:11 – In whom also we HAVE OBTAINED AN INHERITANCE being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
I Peter 1:4-7 – To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, [5] Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. [6] Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: [7] That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
