This week in fellowship we are going answer a question I’ve been asked for many years by believers and non-believers alike. The question is “where did Cain get his wife?” It would make sense to ask such a question when there seemed to be only three people on the planet at the time. So, if there were only Cain and his parents Adam and Eve, then where did this woman come from? The woman Cain married and had children with. Religion has had several answers to this question. And over the years I’ve asked those who wanted to know the answer what they’ve been told. I received most of the same answers I’d heard over the years. What I’ve come to realize is that the answers people have received to this question seem to be insufficient. Because many keep asking this same question again and again. The answer to this question is in the Bible. It’s always been there before our eyes. But like we’ve said many times before, everything in the Bible spiritual. God has faithfully provided the answer to a question He knew men would want to know. His answer is not academic, intellectual, religious but spiritual. His answer to this question is like all other questions which deals with the mystery of Sonship. It must be revealed spiritually. So, I’m not here to argue with you over what you’ve been told concerning the question of Cain and his wife. Or the wife of his little brother Seth. I will give you the answer to this question similar to what Paul said in 1Cor 15:3-4.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Let me transliterate it this way,

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, where Cain and Seth both got their wives according to the scriptures; And that they received their wives by the purpose, intent, and plan of God according to the scriptures:

So, this is not a theory or concept but the revelation of a mystery which has always been waiting to be revealed by the Holy Spirit. He that have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying will be fine! Let’s talk about…

This Sunday, we will look at the greatest mural the Godhead ever painted. A mural painted in words – the mural of the purpose, intent, and plan of God before the foundation of the world. A mural that can only be seen in retrospect through the spiritual eyes of sonship. For the mind of the Lord is only known by the spiritual birthed sons of God. To those sons, He desires to reveal His hidden wisdom in a Mystery. A wisdom that He predestined before the ages to our glory. We will look at the where, who, what, when, and resulting identity of Proverbs chapter 8. Let’s talk about it…

I had notes prepared to teach on Romans 11:11-32 – the grafting of the Gentiles to the roots of Israel. This was intended to be a conclusion to the series titled The Great Lie – Adopted by God. While compiling my notes, I was strongly redirected by the Holy Spirit to put that subject aside and explore the Wisdom of God. My study began with the various Hebrew words for time in Ecclesiastes chapter 3. The study of time in verse 11 inevitably led me to Proverbs chapter 8.

Now, I must confess that the Book of Proverbs had never been anything more to me than an instruction manual for receiving knowledge and wisdom, and Chapter 8 was just another brick in that wall of the same tedious lecturing of Solomon. But on that night, at that moment, the identity of wisdom, beginning with the Godhead before the creation of time unfolded like a documentary. I cannot describe the amazement my mind’s eye was seeing. Proverbs chapter 8 became a mural that was painted by the Wisdom of God.

Our union with the Father through spiritual new birth, the cross, redemption, and spiritual identity before the foundation of the world unfolded as I continued to read. Reading with the mind of the spiritual son, the deep began speaking to deep. I will teach what I have come to understand about wisdom over two weeks. I will lay a foundation this Sunday, and discuss Proverbs chapter 8 next. Keep 1 John 2:13 in mind until we meet together on Sunday – ” I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning”.

We will conclude our message from last week on reconciliation with “The Cross: The Mystery of Forgiveness and Redemption”.  As we talked about last week, reconciliation took place before the foundation of creation and was manifested at the cross.  It was not something God did because man sinned.  Thus, neither was forgiveness and redemption a reaction behavior.  There is so much we have never been told about the depth and mystery of the cross.  The cross was the place God revealed that His purpose, intent and plan (PIP) was in a person. He brought forth His victory of exchange!  He revealed a new death which was before creation.  This was a death unto life. And with it came forgiveness and redemption which was established before the foundation of the worlds!  Sadly, His forgiveness and redemption is still a mystery today, even at this very hour as you read this.  But why is this precious and powerful act of love hidden? Why is it not being proclaimed in churches, by preaches and pastors and Bible teachers to the body of Christ?  Even though it’s a mystery hidden from our senses knowledge, the Father has provided the work of the Holy Spirit, the reveler of all things spiritual to make known the mystery of His will to anyone who has ears to hear what the Spirit is saying!   So, let’s talk about it….

Happy New Year! We thank our Father for His love and grace and the time He provided for us in fellowship this past year of 2020. I can’t express the joy and blessing it’s been! But as Paul has said, “forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forward to things which are ahead. I press toward the mark for the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” The Father will continue pressing us further into the process of Sonship in 2021. Our days, weeks and months are numbered, but our time in learning spiritual Sonship is without measure. Again as Paul says, “See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord [is].” I thank each of you for your prayers and love to the fellowship! Many have been strengthened and encouraged because of who you are in Christ as the spiritual Son of God! Man’s deepest need is spiritual identity, and we are learning to live and walk as the spiritual Sons we were birthed by God to be to Him. Amen! In 2021 the process of Sonship will continue to conform each of us. As you’re able to receive of course…

The message this week is on the cross and the mystery of reconciliation, forgiveness, and redemption. It is the mystery of the cross which many today seem to be missing in their theology of the cross. Let’s take a look at the cross and it’s mystery of reconciliation. The word reconciliation is used all the time by almost everyone. But what does it mean? Some advocate a person is reconciled to God when they are saved or born-again. While others declare, a person is reconciled when they repent and ask God to forgive their sin. And yet for others, reconciliation takes place when Christ died on the cross. But this reconciliation does not actually become theirs until a person hears the gospel and responds in faith. All of these ideas have been taught, preached, believed and misunderstood for far too long! Let’s hear what the Spirit is saying concerning this mystery of reconciliation. So, let’s talk about it…
