Genesis 2:25
They were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed
『And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were
not ashamed. 』 (Genesis 2:25) Being "not ashamed" means not knowing what is
naked. Just as spirit wears the clothes of the spirit in the kingdom of God, so
do humans. The fact that they are naked means that they are naked in the world,
but that they are not wearing spirit clothes. Because the angels which kept not
their first estate, but left their own habitation, they wore earthen clothing.
So they do not know that they have left the kingdom of God.
In 2 Corinthians 5:
1-3『For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle
were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands,
eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly
desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: If so
be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. 』 The dwelling place from heaven is the body of the spirit. When a person
dies, the spirit has to wear a body, which means that they are eagerly looking
for a place in heaven.
In Colossians 2:11『In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands,
in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: 』 Christ's circumcision is to take off the body.
This is synonymous with Romans 6: 4.『Therefore we
are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ
was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also
should walk in newness of life. 』 The body of fresh
dies through baptism, but God makes it resurrect in the new life. The new life
is the spirit body.
In Revelation 3:
17-18 you say『Because thou sayest, I
am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not
that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried
in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be
clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine
eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 』 This is what Jesus
rebukes toward the Church of Laodicea. The Lord says the Laodiceans are naked.
It will be a spiritual story. It is also said that the body of the spirit is
the clothes of righteousness and the clothes of Christ.
The expression of the
spirit body is described in 1 Corinthians 15:44 as the apostle Paul explains
the resurrection.『It is sown a natural body; it
is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual
body. 』 He expressed the body of the flesh as an old man. In Romans 6: 6, 『Knowing
this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be
destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. The object of death is that
it is an old man (body of the flesh).
Those who are
not in Christ are naked. However, they do not realize that they are naked.
People are wearing flesh, but they are naked because they do not have a spirit
body. So, the saint must take off the body of fresh in order to wear the body
of the spirit, but since the body cannot be killed, the body of fresh (old man)
dies with Jesus. The body of fresh (old man) and body of spirit are not
visible, but are expressions that have spiritual meaning.
When fresh body dies, it can be reborn as spirit body. So those who are born again are those who were born with a different body, not the mind. Even though they have a physical body, they have a spirit body. Instead, the body of fresh must die with Jesus. Sin's body is inaccessible to sin. In 1 John 5:18『We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. 』 Those who are born of God are spirit bodies. However, those who have spirit bodies also have physical bodies. In this body, the body of fresh (old man) died, but memories and emotions of the past are revived. That is why the spirit of the body does not prevent them from reviving every day and must be killed.
In Jude 1: 6『And the angels which kept not
their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in
everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. 』
Darkness means the
material world (the world). Your own place is God's place (house). That is, the
angels took off the body of the spirit. So a certain day, they will get the
angel's clothes back. In 2 Corinthians 5:10『For we must
all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that
every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath
done, whether it be good or bad. 』As Jesus speaks of
the Sadducees and the resurrection, in Matthew 22:30, Jesus says, "If a
person dies, the spirit is like an angel." For the expression "like
an angel," The point of conversation is about marriage. It means that we
are married on earth but not like angels in heaven, but the spiritual meaning
represents the relationship between Christ and the Church. The question of
whose wife is the wife of the seven brothers, but the appearance of a couple in
the kingdom of God is that all creation is like the wife of Christ. So after
living and dying in this world, those who are in Christ are expressions of
beings who are one in God like angels. In order to be one in God, we must wear
the body of the spirit (the garment of righteousness).
In Genesis 6: 2-3『That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they
were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always
strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred
and twenty years. 』 The sons of God are
those who have not kept their position. So they took off the spirit body and
became people of the world. So, first, a woman comes out from Adam (male), and
after marriage, people start to flourish. Man was made in the image of God, but
since there is no body of spirit, the spirit dies and puts on the body,
becoming the body to die.
In Adam, all the members who come to this world do not know that they have taken off the spirit body. Originally, they were spirits in the kingdom of God, but they did not know that they were trapped in the earth by Satan's delusion and wore their fleshly bodies. Even though God tells the things of the kingdom of God through the Garden of Eden, most people do not realize. So, those who realize, know that God was the Father and must return to the Father as in the parable of the prodigal son. To return to the Father, we must go into Jesus Christ and return. To enter into Christ, we must take off the fresh body with Jesus on the cross and change into the spirit body.
In Genesis 3: 7『And the eyes
of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed
fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. 』 They realized that they were naked after eating the fruit of a tree
that knew good and evil. In the kingdom of God, the spirits were deceived by
Satan and tried to leave God, so they took off their tents and came to earth.
People who came to this land have to realize that they were naked, but without
realizing it, God judged everything on earth except Noah's family. And through
Abraham, God chose a people and made them realize. The fruit of the tree that
knows good and evil is the law (law of wrath). You can discover your condition
through good and evil.
Through Romans 3:
19-20, the law is convicting sin. God chose Israel (the fig tree), gave the
law, and made them realize that they were naked. But Israel did not realize.
They should realize that their righteousness cannot put on the body of the
spirit, but Israel relied only on the law. In order to wear the spirit body, we
must enter into Jesus Christ, who died by the law. Being born again with water
and the Holy Spirit puts on the body of the Spirit. In the water, the body of
fresh dies and is reborn as the spirit body by the Holy Spirit.
