This is incredibly important - you're not going to get this anywhere else.
I have been telling this forum for nearly an entire year now, that the Bible centers around Colossians 2:9-15 and the Circumcision of Christ.
Spiritual Circumcision, the idea of it, was instituted in the lives of Abraham and Sarah . . . back in Genesis chapter 17. Today, Spiritual Circumcision is represented in Water Baptism, but prior to Christ, Spiritual Circumcision was represented in physical circumcision.
Spiritual Circumcision is the "cutting away" of the Sinful Nature. Physical circumcision is the "cutting away" of that which is ugly, nasty, unclean and filthy . . . the foreskin of a man's phallus. Remember what Paul said about this?
Ephesians 2:11 NLT - "Don't forget that you Gentiles used to be outsiders. You were called "uncircumcised heathens" by the Jews, who were proud of their circumcision, even though it affected only their bodies and not their hearts."
But back to Abel. He was the first True Prophet.
Luke 11:50-51 NLT - "As a result, this generation will be held responsible for the murder of all God's prophets from the creation of the world-- from the murder of Abel to the murder of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, it will certainly be charged against this generation."
Yes, Abel was mentioned as a Prophet "from" the beginning. Physical circumcision produces blood, for it is the cutting away of the flesh (Sarx). This means that before Abraham was born, Christ [Was!], meaning that Christ had been performing Spiritual Circumcision from the beginning. And what did Abel do? He offered a "blood" sacrifice, which points to whom? Yes, Jesus Christ on the Cross. And what does Jesus have to do with Spiritual Circumcision?
Colossians 2:11, 13 NLT - "When you came to Christ, you were "circumcised," but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision--the cutting away of your sinful nature. ... 13 You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins."
Believe it . . . there were many conversations between Abel and the Lord that we know nothing about according to our traditional Bibles. But Abel, a True Prophet of the Lord, knew EXACTLY what was going on. He understood what it meant to offer a Blood sacrifice, that that sacrifice was pointing to the Tree of Life in the Garden . . . the same Tree of Life that would die upon Calvary Hill.
Friends, this is the Core of our Gospel. Circumcision of the Heart is what our Entire Bible points to! Or, do "you" think that the Holy Word Circumcision is just tossed into the Bible for no reason at all? Do you think that was some sort of weird concept that just shouldn't belong? Will "christians" always be ashamed of that word? Or, will we one day wake up and realize that "Oh . . . my . . . gosh . . . the Lord is one sneaky Dude, that He would hide His Mysterious Plan behind the phallus of a man!"
If I were a pastor, no one could become a member of the church until they read and understood the Old Testament. Wow, what a novel idea! To think that Christians should actually know and understand the Old Testament! We MUST understand why Abraham is our "Father of Faith" - We MUST understand what it means to belong to the "Family of Circumcision"! Of course, if a man is not Spiritually Circumcised, he/she is cut off from the "Family" or the Body of Christ!
Genesis 17:14 NLT - "Any male who fails to be circumcised will be cut off from the covenant family for breaking the covenant."
Refusing to be physically circumcised is like refusing to be Baptized. What nutjob would refuse to do that?
Lastly, do "you" really think that the "Two-Elevens" are a sheer coincidence?
Ephesians 2:11 KJV - "Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands"
Colossians 2:11 KJV - "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"
Come on friends . . . this is the True Gospel that YOUR pastors are REFUSING to teach you. And you think that they don't know about it? Of course they do . . . their noses and faces are in our Holy, incredible Bible more than anyone on the planet. So I advise that you get in their flippin' grill and demand an explanation for why they have refused to teach you the Truth!
