The Protoic Part-Having The Heavenly Leadership

When you are sealed you have a chance to become the protoic first. You may become the protoic first in Heaven. You may even become the first on earth, but the protoic first place in Heaven is much better.nnn“Amen, I say to you,” Jesus said, “that you who follow me, in the Regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit upon the Throne of His Glory, you shall also sit upon twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
Jesus promised it right there. He promised that His disciples would be leaders in Heaven. They would be judges and sit in authority over all the Jewish people in Heaven.
So the disciples would be given authority in Heaven over their own people, the Jewish people. This is quite a promise. And you too can become an authority over your own people in Heaven.
When you are sealed you become a disciple to Jesus. You become closer to Jesus. You will be closer to Jesus than most other Christian people and closer to Jesus even than most other religious leaders.
That is the promise of becoming sealed. As the disciple of Jesus, so close to Him, you will be granted the privilege of leading your own people in the Regeneration, which is Life after death.
Everyone must experience death. Man was not created to die. But Adam the first man chose death when he ate of the Forbidden Fruit. He knew death was the punishment but he gave in to temptation.
Some people will go to hell when they die. But others will experience the Regeneration where they will live again forever. That is the Regeneration Jesus spoke of, and that is what will happen for you when you are sealed.
When you are sealed (and closer to God) you will be persecuted. You will be rejected. People will always reject those who are close to God. But in Heaven you will judge your people and be no more rejected.
The Seal is the crown upon your forehead. Jesus crowns you with His Name when you are sealed. But you are destined to be a protoic heavenly king and priest with this crown you wear, not so much a worldly king or priest.nnn“And every one,” said Jesus, “who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my Name, shall receive a hundred times as much and will inherit ete
al Life. But many first will be last, and last first.”
When you are sealed people will reject you. But you also learn to leave them. You learn to leave your own family and loved ones and venture out to new people, the new people who need you.
They need your message today while on earth, and those who make it to Heaven with you will need your message in Heaven too. Because in Heaven you will lead them as the protoic leader. And most people need leaders.
But you will not only leave your family and friends. You will leave your fields. When you are sealed God plants a garden in you so you will bear fruit. That seal is the fertile land of that garden.
And you must leave those lands. You must forsake even the garde
God plants in you. That garden is your earthly purpose but it does not compare to the glory of your heavenly purpose.
Yet when you leave that field, leaving your garden, you will be given many fields. Just as you are given many more families. So you will have more on earth even though you have given up earthly things for heavenly things.
When you are sealed you will have the promise of becoming a protoic leader of your people in Heaven. So you are ready to give up everything on earth for the promise of the protoic first place in Heaven when you receive the Seal.

Secrets to Living the Life You've Always Wanted
It seems rather odd to refer to any of what follows as secrets. For one thing, the word “secret” implies that something is hidden and the wisdom below is anything but secret. In some form or fashion, you could find these in virtually any spiritual tradition. Second, “secret” implies that the spiritual wisdom that would lead one to the life he/she really wants is really only accessible by a few. And, the unfortunate tendency is not to regard your self as one of the select few. But, of course, you are.
