Jesus Called our Age “Children of the Resurrection”

1 Jesus calls our Age that we live in the children of the resurrection. The old Age was the Age of sin and death which mankind inherited from Adam which ended in AD70 with the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple with the holy people being shattered according to Daniel 12.

 Luke 20: 34 Jesus answered and said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. 35But those who are counted worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; 36nor can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.



2 Apostle Paul called the people that were to be in the Age to come after the end of their Age came in AD70 the manifestation of the Sons of God in Romans 8:19. 3 Other translations use the word revealed instead of manifestation but The Manifestation of the Sons of God teachings back in the time from 1948 to 1980’s was very popular within the Pentecostal and Latter Rain Movements.

4 Apostle John called this the Offspring of the Woman which was the true Israel of God and was the first century Church that became the Bride of Christ that brought forth the male child who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter.” 5 This was at the time of the end of the Age when the Great Tribulation was in view in Revelation 12. 6 Ancient Israel was not the woman here in Revelation 12 because Judgment was coming upon ancient Israel for being unfaithful and for killing the saints.

7 Paul said that the Gospel had been preached to every creature under Heaven; so that would have meant that the great commission was accomplished in the first century just before the end of the Age.

Colossians 1:23if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.

8 The way that futurist believe is that they see all things accomplished before the New Heaven and Earth begun. 9 They also believe that the New Heaven and Earth would be free from the possibility of anyone to sin because of the way they interpret Revelation 21 to be that there would be no pain, sickness, death etc. but those things are for the afterlife. 10 The things to consider here is that all things would be made new and the former things wouldn’t be remembered. 11 The Good News of the Everlasting Gospel goes beyond the Gospel that was preaching in the first century into the age that was to come when the children of the resurrection replaced the children of Adam’s death which all of mankind inherited fro Adam. 12 In the old Age people were being saved from the curse of the Old Covenant laws. 13 In this new Age people are being saved from the Lake of Fire in the hereafter and being saved from dwelling in Spiritual Outer Darkness while they are physically alive. 14 If you understand what I am saying then all the scriptures relating to these things will fall into place. 15 Whether you believe it or not that is your choice but at least you should know and understand my point of view. 16 I have spent a lot of time with some people who just do not seem to get it with what I understand to be the truth. 17 One person has constantly twisted things I have said with things that I do not even believe in or have said. 18 They have even gone out the way to say I said things that hyper futurist believe in such as having a physical bodies being resurrected for the hereafter when I had stated time and time again that we become a Spiritual individual body in the hereafter. 19 Another term I use is Immortal Spirited Being’s body which is the same thing but with different emphasize.


20 The Age changed when all things were made new so the Gospel from the old Age has become The Good News of the Everlasting Gospel for the Age of Resurrection where Christ has made all alive. 21 I’m not talking about a Universalist view here, but that’s right, not just the righteous, but the wicked as well, but the wicked do not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. 22 The wicked dwell in Outer Darkness until their physical death then they are cast into the Lake of Fire which is what the righteous are saved from post AD70. 23 Remember now All things were made new so leave all the first century things behind and do not remember them just like the children in the wilderness with Moses had to leave their manna behind because God no longer provided it once they entered into the promised land. Moses also lifted up the serpent in the wilderness but not in the promised land which represented the New Heaven & Earth.


John 3:14And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up.

24 Jesus said that the gospel would end at His coming.

25 Jesus said that the Gospel must be peached to all nations before the Temple was destroyed in AD70 and all the things mentioned in that chapter.

Mark 13:10 And the gospel must first be preached to all nations.

Matthew 24:14 “And this Gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

26 Full Preterist are in agreement that the end occurred in 70 AD but many still preach the Gospel as if it didn’t come to an end of the Age.

27 According to Apostle Paul in the late AD50’s to mid AD60’s, the gospel had already gone out to the nations, the whole world and to every creature:

Romans 10:18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:

“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the world.”

Romans 16:26 but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith


Col 1:6 which has come to you, as it has also in all the world, and is bringing forth fruit, as it is also among you since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth

 Col. 1:23 if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.

28 There is nothing left for anyone to be saved from today that was from the Old Covenant. 29 However since all things were made new, the new things are the antitype of things from the Old Covenant.

30 Those Preterist who are claiming to be Full Preterist but are actually Anemic Preterist and I was one of them before. 31 They will tell you that all of mankind is still under Adam’s death and separated from God so you should be born again from Adam’s Spiritual death as if Adam’s death was never cast into the Lake of Fire in AD70.

32 They will tell you that after you get saved from Adam’s Spiritual death that you are no longer separated from God.

33 They will tell you that you are a member of the Church and will become the Bride of Christ some day though that day has already come and gone and left the foolish virgins behind. 34 Yet since the Temple no longer stands everyone is in God’s presence including those who are in the Lake of Fire.

35 They are blinded to being the Offspring of the Bride and Groom found in Revelation 12 and Romans 8:19-20 who are the Sons of God with Jesus Christ as their Everlasting Father the second Adam. 36 After All Things were Made New because they are still hanging on to their baggage from the old Age that was 2000 years ago and it’s time to let go of Adam’s corpse that the worms did not finish off at dinner time.


37 What are we saved from in this new Age of the New heaven & Earth is from the Lake of Fire. 38 Throughout our lifetime here on Earth we are going through a constant refinement by the Holy Spirit which is God’s presence Tabernacling amongst us and within us which the Feast of Tabernacles represented as well as the Holy Place at the Alter of Incense.

39 So then we can safely say that all the things from the Old Covenant foreshadowed to new things that were to come in God’s new creation of the New Heaven & Earth. 40 Things like Adam’s death was cast into the Lake of Fire. 41 Adam’s Spiritual which caused mankind to go to Hades in the hereafter where the dead slept until they were resurrected no longer exist and it is not the same as the Lake of Fire. 42 The Lake of Fire is the New Death which the scriptures calls the Second Death that is the antitype for the Kingdom of Darkness in the new Age that was to come, that we’ve been in since AD70


43 A lot of Anemic Preterist of which I was one will tell you that the Lake of Fire along with Satan ended in AD70 after it destroyed the Old Covenant’s Temple and old Jerusalem in God’s wrath all though I found this one hard to swallow at the time. 44 Though the Lake of Fire did destroy the things from the past it is still alive and well today where Satan is the king of that domain which is the Kingdom of Darkness. 45 Satan was destroyed in a sense that he no longer had dominion over being the Prince of the air or by working through the old religious system that was from the Tree of Knowledge through those on the Earth like the Pharisees and Sadducees but he sure can pull the strings on many today from his Kingdom of Darkness which is in the Lake of Fire in the Spiritual realm. 46 It’s a new way because all things were made new in AD70.

47 Jesus resolved Adams death through His redemptive work on the cross for those who came to Christ by faith in the first century.

48 The second death is what replace Adam’s death for the whole world when the Temple was destroyed and the second death was the Lake of Fire for the Age of the New Heaven & Earth which is forever. 49 Once the Temple no longer stood God’s presence was open to everyone. 50 The walls of the temple represented separation from God. 51 Everyone in the whole world was baptized with the Holy Spirit and the Refining Fire in AD70 when the Temple was destroyed at the coming of Christ in Glory which John the Baptist warned the Pharisees about:

Matthew 3:7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, “Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, 9 and do not think to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones. 10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

52 God is a consuming Fire and He is the Lake of Fire for the New Heaven & Earth to those who reject and hate Him and those do not believe in Him where they are tormented by His Presence.

Revelation 14:10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

53 Good News of the Everlasting Gospel is that we were born alive as children of God but those who were alive in AD70 were made alive by Christ because they had already been born.

54 Good News of the Everlasting Gospel is that we can be overcomes and abide in Christ and be one with Him as He is with the Father.

55 Good News of the Everlasting Gospel is that we can be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ to everyone around us like John was Elisha who was to come.

Matthew 11:13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. 14 And if you are willing to receive it, he is Elijah who is to come. 15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

56 The Good News of the Everlasting Gospel is that Jesus said in the New International Version we are God’s children, since we are the children of the resurrection because we live after it happened in the Spiritual realm back in AD70.

Luke 20: 34 Jesus replied, “The people of this age marry and are given in marriage. 35But those who are considered worthy of taking part in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage, 36and they can no longer die; for they are like the angels. They are God’s children, since they are children of the resurrection.

57 Here is what I believe Jesus meant by they can no longer die; for they are like the angels. 58 When we physically die we do not go to sleep in Hades like they did before AD70 waiting to be resurrected from the dead. 59 We will be like the Angels in the hereafter after we physically die and will become Immoral Spirited Beings like the Angels are if we are worthy. 60 There are Spirited Beings like Angels and even Satan that never had a physical body of flesh, bone and blood. 61 They will always be Spirited Beings that will exist forever. 62 Humans however were never Spirited Beings with a Spiritual body so we will only exist forever as one in the hereafter if we are worthy to have a Immortal Spirited Beings body. 63 Those who are not get cast into the Lake of Fire as Mortal Spirited Beings for a season of torment until they are burnt to ashes. 64 None of this will happen to their physical bodies because that just returns back to the Earth, it will be their Mortal Spirited Being’s body that will be destroyed and be no more.

65 Is there anything else that I can add and so what does this all mean and how are we to live our lives..?

Conclusion:

66 So why is the world in such a mess and have missed out on all of this especially mainline Christianity for 2000 years and still counting…?

67 I believe it is because they failed to take the warning that was given to the children of Israel who were in the wilderness for 40 years just like the first century Church was while waiting to enter into the New Heaven & Earth which the promised land was a type of back in the days of Moses in the wilderness. 68 We should have all entered into that rest that the Feast of Tabernacles portrayed with God dwelling with His people after the Feast Day of Atonement took place. 69 You can leave everything that was in the wilderness of the first century behind and partake of all the things that were made new so that you can live by it by your new faith that you hope for in the Spiritual realm. 70 Knowing that you are a child of the resurrection. 71 As one of the Offspring of the Bride and Groom as well as a Manifested Child of God who can be an overcomer and rule over the nations of the Earth as a flame of fire in the refining fire of the Holy Spirit and that we are living in the Age of Eternal Life.


Luke 18:30 who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and in the age to come eternal life.”


72 Just read this and let the Spirit speak to you on this as see if it registers with you on whether your faith has entered into that rest. 82 If not let it by a renewed faith and know that the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart..

Be Faithful

Hebrews 3:7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says:

“Today, if you will hear His voice,

8 

Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
In the day of trial in the wilderness,

9 

Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,
And saw My works forty years.

10 

Therefore I was angry with that generation,
And said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,
And they have not known My ways.’

11 

So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”

12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; 13 but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, 15 while it is said:

“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

Failure of the Wilderness Wanderers

16 For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses? 17 Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

Hebrews 4

The Promise of Rest

1 Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. 2 For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it. 3 For we who have believed do enter that rest, as He has said:

“So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest,’ ”

although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. 4 For He has spoken in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: “And God rested on the seventh day from all His works”; 5 and again in this place: “They shall not enter My rest.”

6 Since therefore it remains that some must enter it, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter because of disobedience, 7 again He designates a certain day, saying in David, “Today,” after such a long time, as it has been said:

“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts.”

8 For if Joshua had given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day. 9 There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. 10 For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.

The Word Discovers Our Condition

11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. 12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

Our Compassionate High Priest

14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

NIV

Luke 20:35 But those who are considered worthy of taking part in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage,36 and they can no longer die; for they are like the angels. They are God’s children, since they are children of the resurrection.

74 Some will be wondering about marriage and say people still get married today. 75 No one that I know of or seen of has a Biblical marriage from the Old Covenant which is what Jesus was talking about. 76 What we have today in the free world is a 50-50 cohabitation agreement where the women have equal rights. 77 Back in the old Age a man could divorce his wife and have more than one wife. 78 The woman was not allowed to have more than one husband, she was her husbands slave and the man owned everything including the children. 79 The man had responsibilities to provide for food and clothing and the woman did not some marriage rights. 17 Exodus 21:1-11 covers a bit of what marriage was. 80 Genesis 34 has a story of where marriage is first mentioned in the Bible though we know Adam and Eve became one as husband and wife but the word marriage does not appear. 81 Jesus did say that originally a man was to have just one wife and that has become a standard rule for all time for most of the civilized world. 82 The last thing about it is that Jesus nor be given in marriage. 83 As we see it today in almost every country in the world except for some Religious sects from the Mid East and Indian women around the world have the freedom to accept a marriage proposal or reject one. 84 Back in the old Age most women did not have a choice.

85 The main marriage that we should be concerned about for the New Heaven and Earth was between the first century Church and Jesus Christ. 86 It was through the preaching of the Gospel that brought forth the Bride of Christ. 87 They were not the first fruits of Israel who were the 144,000 mentioned in Revelation 7 & 14. They were the First Fruits that had the Spirit who were to become the Bride of Christ as a results of the former rain of Pentecost with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. 88 This opportunity to be a part of the Bride of Christ was not something that would be ongoing throughout the ages of time. It was accomplished at the second coming of the Lord in AD70.

89 The reason that the preaching of the Gospel was not meant to continue forever is that Revelation 10:7 says: “But in the days when the seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet,  the mystery of God will be accomplished, just as he announced to his servants the prophets.”

90 The mystery of God is the good news of which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.  91 What made the Gospel possible is the Incarnation of Jesus Christ as God manifested in the flesh.  92 Paul said in: Galatians 4:3Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world. 4But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.

93 The mystery then was God’s plan to redeem the world and bring many sons to glory after the marriage of the Lamb.  94 It began with the birth of Christ and continued to the end of the age in AD70.  95 It was accomplished at His Parousia, which was the end of the Age of Corruption that all of creation waited for the adoption and redemptive Spiritual body for the hereafter according to Romans 8:18-23 which was a big part of the mystery for the New Glorious Creation in the New Heaven and Earth.

Colossians 1:26 the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. 27 To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 28 Him we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 5:18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

96 As a result of the marriage of the Lamb to the Bride we are the God’s children, since we are children of the resurrection. 97 Notice here in Revelation 21:7 that Jesus said I will be his God and he shall be My son, but if you want to inherit all things you have to overcome the things that apply here in Revelation 21:8

Revelation 21:7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. 8But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
