0114 Enthroned or Crucified

Enthroned or crucified

The solution to the problems of humanity is not continuous cutting of the fruit but continues cutting of the root

Self is old sinful flesh nature; is the root of all evil; when self is driver you are an enemy of God

Adam and Christ (both in the garden; without father; began two different races); cross or throne; the crown of thorns or the crown of the King; Adam put Christ on the cross by putting himself on the throne, Christ put Adam on the cross by putting God on the throne

Crucifying Christ by Enthroning Self

By enthroning one you are crucifying another Christ is dead on the cross (Dead take up space and are unfunctional) Two fold purpose in coming to this earth: to suffer (2000 years ago was fulfilled) and reign (now)

Enthroning Christ by Crucifying Self

Christ is qualified for the throne

Christ is the Son of David, the king (Is.11:1)

Christ was born as a king (Mt.2:2)

Christ came into this world as a king (Luke 1:32-33)

Christ was rejected as a king (Luke 19:14)

Christ died as a king (Mt.27:37)

Christ is coming again as a king (Rev.19:16)

There is not such thing as dead Christ on the throne and alive self on the cross If self is not willing to give up the throne then Jesus is not willing to give up the cross The quality of life depends on the kind of King

Crucifying self by Enthroning Christ

Death is the key to fruitfulness

Unless seed dies it will be one (1Cor.15:36; Mt.13) Jesus was the ultimate seed that brought great harvest (John 12:24) Seed dies after being put under ground, surrounded by dirt and darkness Death is the key to victory over sin

Those who suffer will cease to sin (1Pet.4:1-2) We overcome the enemy by not loving our lives to death (Rev.12:11) Death is the key to the presence of God

Death of Jesus opened up the door to the holy of holies
