I remember my spirit resonating with the phrase "the womb of time" when I first come across it while reading some of Ken Carey's writings. We have been gestating in the womb of time, because time has been our growing place. But wombs are only temporary housing for sure, but wholly necessary. It is our soul or minds that are growing....growing up into the realization of the completed blueprint of our spirit....but growing it is.
None of us can deny that we all were once born as babies, grew into children and then into adults....testifying to the fact that we all have entered into the time and space continuum and have partaken of it. What one of you, wishes to freeze-frame your little one and deny them the time to grow up, stunting their growth.
Jesus came here into this realm of time as a baby, not a full grown man. He stripped himself of his celestial glory and participated in our humanity in every way, having to grow in grace and wisdom and needing to be anointed of God to fulfill his purpose. He is our pattern.
The Word became flesh. When He became flesh, he wasn't the anointed Word anymore. That is why we are told that God anointed Him with the spirit without measure. If He had still been the anointed Word, it would have been redundant and foolish for God to anoint God.
Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God.
When you look up the word 'flesh' it is the word 'sarx' or carni.
It is 'sarx' when it speaks of the Word being made flesh.
And it is 'sarx' when it speaks our our flesh.
Jesus could not inherit the kingdom of God until he made his change, his metamorphosis into Spirit. And without the anointing of God he could not have done so.
All creation was orginally "born of God", but all must now be "born again" or resurrected from our spiritual death that we entered into in this realm. That's why Jesus prayed so fervently crying to be delivered from death - not the death of the cross - but to be delivered from this realm of death. And we are told that he was heard! He was willing to lay down the glory of a man anointed with the spirit to take on the greater glory of being an omnipresent Christ spirit with the Lordship and authority to bring many sons to the same glory!
Jesus started a new way of being human - he revealed Christ in you, the hope of glory. This was a mystery that was kept hidden for ages and generations, the glorious riches of this mystery of Christ in You becoming Christ as you. \0/
