Your Futural Fate--Friendship With Jesus

When you receive the Seal you will live out the futural prophecy. The futural prophecy foretells the joining together of the two friends--Jesus and the sealed person. nnn“The hour has come,” Jesus said, “of the glorification of the Son of man.” When Jesus spoke of the Son of man, He meant Himself. But He did not exclude the sealed person, who is another son of man much like Jesus.

Jesus was speaking of His own death. And speaking of the sealed person too, He was speaking of the death of that person. Death would glorify both Jesus and the sealed person.nnn“Amen, amen, I say to you,” Jesus said, “unless the Grain of wheat falling into the earth should die, it remains alone. Yet if it should die it bears much fruit.” Jesus emphasized He would not be alone.

But how do we know who or what is the companion of Jesus here? We know Jesus refers to the sealed person specifically because He calls Himself a wheat Seed. And the companion of the wheat Seed is the ground.

The Seal is stamped in the shape of a tiny plot of ground where one wheat Seed has been sown. This is how you know you are the companion of Jesus when you are sealed--you are the ground and He is the Seed.

The wheat Seed is not more important than the ground. The ground is absolutely necessary. The wheat Seed nourishes the believers in God, but the ground nourishes the wheat Seed.

That is why Jesus names His Companion. He chooses the one who will promote His Message, the one with the power to grow it just like a wheat Seed grows in a little garden.

The ground does not nourish the believers by itself. But it gives Life to the Message. The wheat Seed is the Word of God first, and later it becomes the believers themselves.

First the wheat Seed is the Message, and then it becomes the believers in that Message. And God has chosen the one who will actively promote His own Message and has set His Seal upo
Him.

But Jesus was speaking of His death as His glorification. Like Jesus you too must "die" to become sealed. And you must die daily thereafter. You will be the companion and peer of Jesus in death.

The wheat Seed dies when it falls into the ground. It dies and springs to new Life just as if resurrected. So too you sacrifice your life to become sealed and continuing sacrificing it until you make it to Heaven.

You must be in love with death. You must be ready to die and go to Heaven. If you do not take up your cross and follow Jesus daily then God will have patience and wait for you to start doing so.

Because if you do not die daily then evil has a chance to overcome you. God will always fight to regai
His chosen, but you must be willing to die daily when you return to God again.

But self-sacrifice is not too difficult when you are the chosen and preferred friend and peer of Jesus Christ. You will be all those as part of the futural prophecy when you receive the Seal.
