When you understand the intent and purpose of the creator, and His master plan for humanity, only then will meaning and direction dawn on you. Then, you can make the good choice to pursue fulfillment of purpose and meaning in alignment with the creator’s desires.

A careful study of the Word of Truth reveals to me that there are two broad creations in existence — the natural and the spiritual, the visible and the invisibles, the old and new, and both are bound by their respective covenants.

Though both creations existed in the eternal plan but their revelations and manifestations were at different appointed times and space.

The crown of the old, natural and visible creation was the Man-the first Adam. He was from the earth and ushered in the natural human race upon the face of the earth. In him was hid the entire human race also called Adam(Gen 5:2).

1 Corinthians 15:45,47 confirm that “…the first man Adam was made a living soul” and… “the first man is of the earth, earthy”. In him was the entire natural human race, earthy!. The human nature is earthy!.

The first Adam with earthy nature was tempted by the devil, The first Adam fell to the temptation of the devil and by extension, the entire human race in him fell.

The human race remained in this fallen state until a redemptive remedy showed up at the appointed time.

Then the last Adam showed up!.

1 Corinthians 15:45.47 says “….the last Adam was made a quickening spirit” and …..the second man is the Lord from heaven.

The second Adam was also tempted by the devil, but He prevailed and triumphed over the devil.

Jesus, the Lord from heaven ushered in the kingdom of God. This is a spiritual kingdom of God in the hearts of men. Throughout his redemptive mission on earth he preached this kingdom to men and gave the same great commission to his disciples to continue at the end of his physical ministry on earth.

This is the new creation. A kingdom that cannot be inherited by flesh and blood as re-confirmed by Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthian 15:50. Our human nature cannot partake in this creation.

Jesus was first to reveal this truth to Nicodemus a “professor” of the Jewish law. Jesus said in John 3:3–8

Except a man be born again, he cannot enter(see) the kingdom of God.

Re-birth is a pre-requisite for citizenship of this kingdom.

Re-birth is of Water and of the Spirit -Two eternal witnesses in heaven and on earth.

This is the new creation ushered in by the last Adam-the Quickening Spirit-The Lord JESUS Christ.

In Christ is hid the race of the new creation and in Him we live, move and have our being.

This is not a secular religion but a new birth into the kingdom of Light and it starts “within” the hearts of men.

Seek this Kingdom and the Righteousness of God.

The New Creation of the Re-born!!!.

Peace !!!.
