Understanding Eternal Adoption Part 1

Pastor Tosin Gabriel

There Are Two Things That God Has Kept For A Generation Seeking His Ways; Eternal Righteousness And Eternal Salvation. These Two Things Have Their Measurement; Righteousness Can Be Measured, Salvation Can Be Measured. 

It Is Not Just Righteousness, It Is Eternal Righteousness. It Is Not Just Salvation But Eternal Salvation.

There Is Spiritual Righteousness And Also Eternal Righteousness. There Is Spiritual Salvation And Eternal Salvation.

What Makes Righteousness And Salvation Eternal Is When The Godhead Comes Into It. From The Beginning There Are Two Commodities They Transact With.

Glory Has Its Own Measurement It Has Grades.

The Lord Is Opening Up Something To Us As A Church And As A Company; Things We Can Die For. If What You Are Hearing Is Not What You Can Die For, Then You Have Not Started Hearing It; You Are Not Becoming A Pillar In The Kingdom. A Pillar In The Kingdom Is A Man That Can Take His Life For What He Is Hearing.

You Can’t Die For Anything That Is Not Worthy; You Only Die For What You Feel Is Worth It. This Dying Is Not Even Physical. It Is What You Can Die For That You Pay Price For. If There Is Something You Can’t Pay Price For, It Is Still A Worthless Thing.

Righteousness And Salvation Are Two Commodities From The Beginning. You Can’t Talk Glory Without Talking Righteousness And Salvation. When God Looks Upon Man Favorably, Such Will Begin To Transact With Eternal Things.

There Is An Order God Is Calling Us Into. This Order We Are Entering In The Spirit, Is A Significant Order That God Doesn’t Give Anyhow. God Does Not Commit Himself To Any Man. His Things Are Himself. When He Begins To Open His Things To Man, It Is Because That Man Has Found Favor And Mercy.

Glory Has Grades. There Are Different Levels Of Glory; You Need To Know The One They Are Bringing Us To. They Can Test You With A Lesser Glory To See Whether You Know What You Are Looking For. So Our Path Must Be Well Defined Such That When God Gives Us A Measure Of Glory, We Won’t Settle For It.

1 Corinthians 15:39-40

All Flesh Is Not The Same Flesh: But There Is One Kind Of Flesh Of Men, Another Flesh Of Beasts, Another Of Fishes, And Another Of Birds.  There Are Also Celestial Bodies, And Bodies Terrestrial: But The Glory Of The Celestial Is One, And The Glory Of The Terrestrial Is Another.

Terrestrial Bodies Also Have Glory. There Is The Glory Of The Celestial Bodies, And There Is A Glory Of The Terrestrial Bodies.

The Celestial Bodies Are Not Eternal Bodies. Celestial Means Spiritual It Is The Realm Of The Spirit. In The Spiritual There Are Different Categories Of Bodies. The Seen Are Terrestrial, The Unseen Are The Celestial. But There Is The Unseen Of The Unseen.

Understanding Is Key In The Spirit; It Is A Commodity Of The Throne. The Power Of The Wicked One Is Darkness. When Understanding Begins To Enter Humanity, Satan’s Grip Is Being Broken. Satan Doesn’t Mind To Give Man Money As Long As His Understanding Is Being Darkened.

You Need To Seek And Cry For Understanding. 

Glory Has Grades, Measurements And Degrees. There Is A Glory Of Terrestrial Bodies And Of Celestial Bodies. Terrestrial Bodies Include The Body Of Man, Animal And Others. 

You Can’t Separate Glory And Beauty They Go Together. Anytime Glory Interplays, Beauty Plays Out. There Are Strata Of Beauty And Strata Of Glory.

1 Corinthians 15:41

There Is One Glory Of The Sun, And Another Glory Of The Moon, And Another Glory Of The Stars: For One Star Differeth From Another Star In Glory.

One Star Has A Glory That Is Different From Another Star. Even Stars Have Measurement In Glory. That Is You Can Bring A Star Towards The Glory Of Another Star And The Glory Of One Star Will Dim That Of The Other.

They Use Physical Things To Talk About Physical Things.

Angels Are Also Stars. Even Though There Are Physical Stars, There Are Also Morning Stars.

There Are Different Levels Of Stars In The Spirit And They Have Their Different Measurement Of Glory. It Is Glory They Use To Differentiate One From Another; But There Is A Glory That Is Beyond Measurement, You Can’t Quantify It Or Measure It. When You Bring That Glory To Every Other Arrangement Of Glory, There Won’t Be Any Other Glory. This Glory Is An Uncreated Glory; Every Other Glory Is A Created Glory.

Whatever You Can’t Die For Is Not Worth Living For.

The Conversation Of Eternal Glory In Church Has To Improve And Change.

There Is A Glory We Know In The Church Now; What That Glory Is Speaking Of Is Not The Actual Glory They Are Bringing You To. It Is A Kind Of Glory; But The Glory Does Not Exceed The Present Arrangement. People Are Looking For Glory But They Have Not Discovered The Glory.

Isaiah 42:7

To Open The Blind Eyes, To Bring Out The Prisoners From The Prison, And Them That Sit In Darkness Out Of The Prison House.  

These Are Not Physical Operations. I Can Be Born Again And Have Blind Eyes. Darkened Understanding Is Blind Eyes. When I Have Dark Understanding, I’m A Blind Man In The Spirit. I Can Be Seeing Angels And Still Be Blind.

Ephesians 1:17-18

That The God Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father Of Glory, May Give Unto You The Spirit Of Wisdom And Revelation In The Knowledge Of Him:  The Eyes Of Your Understanding Being Enlightened; That Ye May Know What Is The Hope Of His Calling, And What The Riches Of The Glory Of His Inheritance In The Saints,

Isaiah 42:7-8

To Open The Blind Eyes, To Bring Out The Prisoners From The Prison, And Them That Sit In Darkness Out Of The Prison House.  I Am The LORD: That Is My Name: And My Glory Will I Not Give To Another, Neither My Praise To Graven Images.

Vision Is Not Equal To Sight; You Can Have Visions And Dreams And Still Be Blind. This Blindness Is Cured When The Eyes Of Your Understanding Are Enlightened.

Whatever You Are Seeing Physically Is A Replica Of What Is In Your Soul.

‘Prisoners’ In The Scripture Above Are Those Who Cannot See. As Long As Understanding Is Not Given To You, You Are Still A Prisoner And You Are Being Held Captive.

This Prison House Is A House Of The Glory Of The Present. Unless A Man Pierces Through The Glory Of The Present He Will Always Live For It. Prisoners Here Are Not Suffering, They Are Enjoying The Prison. Unless I Am Enlightened, I Am Still In The Dark, In The Prison House.

God Has Given Glory To Everybody; Everything Has Its Glory. There Are Glories God Gave But There Is A Glory That Is His. Man Has His Glory, Flowers Also Have Their Glory.

1 Peter 1:24

For All Flesh Is As Grass, And All The Glory Of Man As The Flower Of Grass. The Grass Withereth, And The Flower Thereof Falleth Away:

There Is A Glory That Can Fall Away; A Perishable Glory.

It Is Only The Glory In Isaiah 42 That Is An Imperishable Glory.

When We Are After Glory They Will Test Us With Different Grades Of Glory. We Are In A Season Of Temptations; Temptations Of Glory; To Know Whether You Know The Things You Are Looking For.

1 Timothy 6:13-14

I Give Thee Charge In The Sight Of God, Who Quickeneth All Things, And Before Christ Jesus, Who Before Pontius Pilate Witnessed A Good Confession;  That Thou Keep This Commandment Without Spot, Unrebukeable, Until The Appearing Of Our Lord Jesus Christ:  

There Is The Appearing Of The Lord; The Lord Is Jesus Christ.

1 Timothy 6:15-16

Which In His Times He Shall Shew, Who Is The Blessed And Only Potentate, The King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords;  Who Only Hath Immortality, Dwelling In The Light Which No Man Can Approach Unto; Whom No Man Hath Seen, Nor Can See: To Whom Be Honour And Power Everlasting. Amen.

He Is The Only One That Has Immortality; He Inherited It But It Is Now His Own. Jesus Has Not Given You That Glory, He Hasn’t Given You Immortality.

Don’t Stay With Your Glory, Ask, ‘how Can I Come Into This Glory?’

Jesus Christ Is The One That Has This Glory; He Didn’t Have This Glory Before As Man.

There Are Two Things They Always Transact With Man From The Beginning; Righteousness And Salvation. 

When We Say Something Has Glory, It Means That Such Has Righteousness And Salvation.

Stars Have Glory; That Means They Have A Degree Of Righteousness And Salvation. 

1 Timothy 2:5

For There Is One God, And One Mediator Between God And Men, The Man Christ Jesus;

This Man Had The Code Of Entering Immortality. He Too Was Man Like Us; When He Was Man Like Us, He Didn’t Have Immortality. He Was Made Like Us In Everything. When He Was Born In Nazareth He Didn’t Have Immortality.

Hebrews 2:14

Forasmuch Then As The Children Are Partakers Of Flesh And Blood, He Also Himself Likewise Took Part Of The Same; That Through Death He Might Destroy Him That Had The Power Of Death, That Is, The Devil;

He Took Part Of Flesh And Blood Also. When They Say ‘no Man Can Approach Him’; It Is A Man Of Flesh And Blood They Are Talking About. Man Of Flesh And Blood Cannot See That Glory Or Approach That Light. Flesh And Blood Can’t See Him.

For The Sake Of Bringing Flesh And Blood That Cannot See Him To Himself, He Became Flesh And Blood. The Word Who Is God, And Uncreated, Entered The Created World As Created And Became Flesh And Blood. Jesus When He Was In The World Was Exactly Like You. There Is Someone Always Waiting At The Door To Tell You This Glory Is Not For People Like You, You Must Be Able To Tell Him That Someone Who Was Like You Entered The Place. The Question Now Should Be, ‘how Should I Get There?’

Hebrews 2:16

For Verily He Took Not On Him The Nature Of Angels; But He Took On Him The Seed Of Abraham.

If He Had Taken The Nature Of Angels, It Would Have Been Easier Because Angels Are Celestial Beings, But He Went Lower Than The Angels.

I Want You To See Something You Can Live For; Such That You Will Say ‘it Is Either I Get This Glory Or I Die’. May We Ascend Beyond The Glory Of The Present.

Sin Has A Grade Of Glory; Death Has Glory. Man Can Love Death To The Detriment Of Loving God.

Luke 16:13

No Servant Can Serve Two Masters: For Either He Will Hate The One, And Love The Other; Or Else He Will Hold To The One, And Despise The Other. Ye Cannot Serve God And Mammon.  

Money Has Brought Injustice. When We Begin To Touch The Glory Of The World To Come, Things Will Be Rearranged.

When You Begin To Fellowship With The Real Glory You Will See That Money Is Not The Main Thing, What Is The Main Thing Is God. What You Should First Measure In A Person Is Not The Monetary Value But The God Value. God Value Is What You Should Use To Transact Not Monetary Value. There Is A Limit Money Can Go, There Is A Realm Money Cannot Even Enter. Money Can’t Enter The Realm Of Angels.

Hebrews 2:17

Wherefore In All Things It Behoved Him To Be Made Like Unto His Brethren, That He Might Be A Merciful And Faithful High Priest In Things Pertaining To God, To Make Reconciliation For The Sins Of The People.

When They Say ‘…in All Things’ Nothing Is Excluded. Hence, Jesus Was Like Us When He Was On Earth. He Partook Of Flesh And Blood Like Us. I’m Not Saying Like Unbelievers; He Was Not Living Like Unbelievers. Unbelievers Are Dead, Dead In Trespasses.

Jesus Also Had Struggles When He Was Here On Earth. In The Day Of Your Struggles, Something Will Tell You ‘you Can’t Make It’. Our Lord Jesus Had Conflict And Troubles When He Was On Earth. He Was Tempted; He Was Not Only Tried, He Was Also Tempted.

Hebrews 4:15

For We Have Not An High Priest Which Cannot Be Touched With The Feeling Of Our Infirmities; But Was In All Points Tempted Like As We Are, Yet Without Sin. 

There Is No Temptation You Are Going Through Now That Jesus Didn’t Pass Through But He Was Without Sin. He Too Had Conflict Of Choices In The Days Of His Flesh. Jesus Had Temptations, Tempted In All Things, Yet Without Sin. What Was His Secret?

Hebrews 4:16

Let Us Therefore Come Boldly Unto The Throne Of Grace, That We May Obtain Mercy, And Find Grace To Help In Time Of Need.

The Reason Why He Didn’t Sin Was Because He Had Allocation Of Mercy And Grace.

Interpretation Of Tongues

‘Come And See The Son Of God, Come And See, Come And See, Come And Look, Come And See The Son Of God, Come And See Him Who Rose In All The Cadres Of Glory, Come And See The Son Of God, Come And See The One Who Has Come Into The Fullness Of The Stature Of God, Come And See The Son Of God, Come And See The One Who Passed Through The Heavens, Come And See, Come And See The One Who Is Full Of Grace, Come And See, Come And See The Son Of God Even Him Who Has Inherited All The Things That Made God, Come And See, Come And See, Come And See This Man, Come And See This Man Even This Man That Is Now God, Come And See This Man Even This Man That The Angels Worship, Come And See This Man Even This Man That Sums Up All The Things Of God Within Himself, Come And See This Man Even The High Priest Of The Tabernacle In Heaven, Come And See This Man Even The Man That Is Seated Even At Rest As God Is At Rest, Come And See, Come And See This Man Even The Just One, Come And See This One Even The Will Of God, Come And Hear His Voice, Come And See Him, Come And See Him’

‘For You See In Seeing Him Grace Comes To You Even In Seeing His Face Grace Is Allocated To You, For You See The Secret Of You Coming Towards The Cornerstone Is By Seeing Him, It's His Face Even The Glory, The Knowledge Of The Glory Of God That Is Upon His Face Must Be Caused To Shine Upon Your Heart, Come And See Him, Come And See Him And Therefore I Extend Invitation To You, I Extend The Hands Of Fellowship To You That You Can Fellowship With This Man, Come Fellowship, Come See This Man, Come See The Glorious One’.

Message Continues

What Is The Time Of Need? It Is The Time We Are Being Tempted. When We Come At Such Time, He Will Give Us Two Things; Which Are Mercy And Grace.

When They Show You Mercy, It Is An Administration. 

When You Become Born Gain, You Are No Longer Born Of Any Man; You Are Born Of The Spirit.

John 1:14

And The Word Was Made Flesh, And Dwelt Among Us, (and We Beheld His Glory, The Glory As Of The Only Begotten Of The Father,) Full Of Grace And Truth.

John 1:1

In The Beginning Was The Word, And The Word Was With God, And The Word Was God.  

The Word Who Was God Was Made Flesh. Who Is Flesh? Flesh Is Jesus, The Word Was God. His Name Was Not Jesus In The Beginning But Word And That Word Was God.

John 1:2-3

The Same Was In The Beginning With God.  All Things Were Made By Him; And Without Him Was Not Any Thing Made That Was Made.  

But This Word Was Made Flesh. When God Became Man, He Became Jesus. Jesus Was Lower Than Christ When He Was Born, They Had To Raise Him. They Raised Him Until He Was Made Christ. When They Say ‘no Man Can See Him Or Approach Him’, It Is True And It Will Be Very Correct. He That Can See Him And Approach Him Is Christ. So What They Are Doing Now Is To Convert You From Man To Christ. Even Jesus, Unless He Was Made Christ He Will Not See Or Approach Him. So He Was Made Christ. If They Made Jesus Christ, Why Would You Say That At New Birth You Are Already Christ? He Was Not Born As Christ He Was Made Christ.

If You Don’t Do Christ, Forget Glory. Glory Is For Christ. That Is Why It Is Christ In You The Hope Of Glory (Colossians 1:27).

The Requirement For Shekinah Glory Is Christ.

Christ Is Not What You Say Alone, It Is Your Obedience In The Making. It Is A Christ Man That Can Hope For Glory. It Is A Christ Man That Can Approach That Light.

1 Corinthians 15:50

Now This I Say, Brethren, That Flesh And Blood Cannot Inherit The Kingdom Of God; Neither Doth Corruption Inherit Incorruption.  

A Man That Cannot Approach God Is A Man Called Flesh And Blood.

Unapproachable Light Is The Existence Of The Realm Of The Kingdom Of God. The Only Man That Can Inherit The Kingdom Is Christ. He Partook Of Flesh And Blood And Then He Was Being Raised From Flesh And Blood To Become Christ. The Reason Why You Are Having Conflict Is Because They Are Turning You From Flesh And Blood To Christ. Sometimes We Compare Ourselves To Flesh And Blood; You Don’t Know That They Are Removing You From Flesh And Blood. 

When The Throne Begins To Arrange You From Flesh And Blood To Christ, They Will Actually First Disorganize Your Life. They Need To Move You From Flesh And Blood To Christ. When They Are Moving You From Flesh And Blood To Christ, They Are Collecting A Prey From The Mighty.

Isaiah 49:25

But Thus Saith The LORD, Even The Captives Of The Mighty Shall Be Taken Away, And The Prey Of The Terrible Shall Be Delivered: For I Will Contend With Him That Contendeth With Thee, And I Will Save Thy Children.

The Mighty There Is The Dragon, Which Prey On Flesh And Blood. The Color Of The Dragon Is Red, Because He Is Feeding On Flesh And Blood.

They Are Converting Us From Flesh And Blood. When You Enter The School Of Conversion The Throne Is Saying You Are A Potential Son, And The Dragon Is Seeing A Potential Overcomer That Will Chase Him Down. So Your Case Is Not With House Hold Enemies But The Dragon.

Flesh And Blood Are Meals For Witches And House Hold Enemies. When They Begin To Convert You From Flesh And Blood You Are No Longer In Their Meal Again. When You Come Into Conversion Season, You Are No Longer In Their Level.

Ephesians 6:12

For We Wrestle Not Against Flesh And Blood, But Against Principalities, Against Powers, Against The Rulers Of The Darkness Of This World, Against Spiritual Wickedness In High Places.  

Your Conversion Now Is A Conversion In The Heavenly Places; So Higher Spirits Are The Ones Contending For You Not Lower Ones. Stop Praying Ridiculous Prayers. You Must Know The Things That Are Warring Against You.

The Contention Now Is A Contention Of Glory.

Matthew 6:33

But Seek Ye First The Kingdom Of God, And His Righteousness; And All These Things Shall Be Added Unto You.  

Potential Son Of Glory Receive Their Allocation From Their Heavenly Father. When You Are In Your Season Of Conversion From Flesh And Blood To Christ The Entire Throne Gives Attention To You.

The Father Rejoices When You Are Appreciating In Christ.

There Is The Contention For The Light Of The New Testament. The Light Of The New Testament Must Break Upon Us.

Prayer: Let The Light Of The New Testament Fill My Heart.

Satan Is The Father Of Lies; There Are Things He Paints To Be True That Are Not True. If You Don’t Enter The Light Of The New Testament Some Things Will Look Real.

Matthew 6:32-33

(For After All These Things Do The Gentiles Seek:) For Your Heavenly Father Knoweth That Ye Have Need Of All These Things.  But Seek Ye First The Kingdom Of God, And His Righteousness; And All These Things Shall Be Added Unto You. 

What Should We Seek? We Should Seek The Kingdom Of God And His Righteousness. 

This Is Not Flesh And Blood Seeking But The Seeking Of A Christ Man. ‘His Righteousness’ Is Christ. In Christ Is The Righteousness Of God Revealed. ‘When I Am Seeking His Righteousness, I Am Seeking Christ; I Am Seeking Christ To Get God’.

Prayer: Soul, Your Obligation Is To Seek Righteousness.
