Transforming Power Statements:
1) All negative things, circumstances, and conditions in the fallen world are the direct result of the introduction of Sin and the fallen freewill of mankind, resulting from the curse that set off a reproduction of only sinners from the fall of Adam until the present, with one exception; when God sent His Son Jesus Christ, Who is the seed of God’s perfect righteousness for everyone who believes in Him.
2) Genesis lays down the foundation that one seed of the devil’s sin has been constantly reproducing as we have both seen and experienced within ourselves, and has also produced an entire world of unredeemed sinners who are all totally corrupted and are escalating their sin more and more as time goes by, bit God also predicted “A” “Seed”, Who is Jesus Christ His Son, Who would come into the world and be the catalyst for eternal life to everyone who would believe and trust Him.
3) In John 12:23 – 26 we learn this principal that the perfect seed which had been promised by God, (Who is Jesus Christ) must also be “sewn into the ground ” {which is a euphemism of His death} which would bring true and perfect righteousness to all who trust in Christ Jesus alone who then become born again by the “Power Of The Seed For All Who Believe”.
