Love Grows where the Seed’s BLOOD & WATER flows to Receptive Hearts

John 19:34,35 – But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. [35] And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.
Why was John so emphatic about making sure the world would be told the Seed of Genesis 3:15,21 was a sinless blood and water man who sacrificed himself in death for the sins of all who would put their faith in the BLOOD & WATER for a total sacrifice price for all their sins?
I believe the Godhead is One God who fulfills three offices, the offices of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Genesis 1:26a – And God said, Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness:
“Let US make man in OUR (blood flowing) image, after OUR (earth becoming) image:
I believe God made man in the image and likeness He knew he would take on himself as the God-man Seed, Jesus Christ, in whom all the fullness of the Godhead dwelled. God is just and the justifier of all believers who have put their faith in Jesus Christ as the complete propitiation for their sins.
Genesis 3:15,21 – And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and HER SEED; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. [21] Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
Romans 3:24-26 – Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: [25] Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; [26] To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
Hebrews 2:14-18 – Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; [15] And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. [16] For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. [17] Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. [18] For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
Galatians 4:4-7 – But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, MADE of a woman, made under the law, [5] To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. [6] And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. [7] Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Colossians 2:9,10 – For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. [10] And ye are COMPLETE in him, which is the head of ALL principality and power:
Matthew 28:18 – And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, ALL POWER is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
II Corinthians 5:10-21 – For we must ALL appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. [11] Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. [12] For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart. [13] For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. [14] For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: [15] And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. [16] Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. [17] Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. [18] And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; [19] To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. [20] Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. [21] For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
Ephesians 5:25-33 – Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; [26] That he might SANCTIFY AND CLEANSE IT WITH THE WASHING OF WATER BY THE WORD. [27] That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. [28] So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. [29] For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: [30] For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. [31] For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. [32] This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. [33] Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
