THIRD STEP TO JESUS Q9: What is germination ? There are 3 parts to the Germ. The scholar term of justification is the same as germination of the germ. Germination is when GOD awakens in your soul, the soil of the mind. (1) The shoot is a symbol of Jesus' power reaching to seek more of the Father's power in the sunlight. As the shoot emerges there is a mystery of integration with the sinner, so the process of further development, known as growing in Jesus (what scholars call sanctification) is a co-operative effort between the divine and the human (you). Ps 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. Ps 92:12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Notice the sinner is integrated into the seedling of Jesus, and grows together as a relationship of the divine and the human, until the fruit stage is reached.
(2) The roots are symbols of the Holy Spirit reaching for more of Jesus' power in
the Word. As the root emerges there is a mystery of integration with the sinner, so
the process of further development, known as growing in the Spirit of Jesus (what
scholars call sanctification) is a co-operative effort between the divine efforts of
the Holy Spirit , Jesus and the human (you).
Note this Hebrew word : "root-base" or "firm" Strongs 3657, Strongs 3661. This word relates to the symbol of roots giving support, firmness
and making one sure. "From the palm for people, BEHOLD the Person !"
The palm of Jesus and the Holy Spirit form the root base
firmness for the shoot to have a trusting anchor to reach for the Father and Jesus,
and complete the process of ongoing salvation (quickening) so the Christian can
endure living with GOD forever without exhaustion.
Da 11:7 But out of a branch of her roots (shall one stand up in his estate (base of roots), Ps 80:15 And the vineyard (base of roots) which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself. Ps 80:17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the quicken us , and we will call upon thy name. Notice the sinner is integrated into the seedling of Jesus, and grows together as a relationship of the two divine COMFORTERS ( Jesus and the Holy Spirit) and the human, The Holy Spirit quickens the mystery growth of integration with us, so the Breath of Salvation to the believer is real and literal, as the life and power of Jesus is lived out through the Christian.
(3) The embryo or life, contains the "life germinating principle". This is the Father's
gift of power, to ensure the Son and the Holy Spirit can equip the sinner to
emerge as a Christian. A Christian is a relationship of the sinner with GOD,
so the believer is able to live forever in Father's presence without exhaustion.
Joh 15:1 � I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
May we all embrace the gift of germining in GOD daily.
Let us strive to enjoy the sweet presence of GOD above the world. Shalom
