We would then ask, what is the blood primarily composed of? The answer is WATER.That which is behind the blood is water. Without waster there would be no blood, andwithout blood there would be no life. If blood and water are the
SOURCE OF ALLLIFE IN MAN,
that is, that which makes him ALIVE, what is the source of all life in theSPIRIT?
WATER AND BLOOD = PHYSICAL LIFEAGAPE LOVE = SPIRITUAL LIFE.
Therefore we will find that BLOOD and WATER are a code word for AGAPE LOVE.Without agape love, there is
NO SPIRITUAL LIFE.
Without AGAPE LOVE BLOODWITHIN YOU, YOU HAVE NO SPIRITUAL LIFE. Just as a person would die withoutwater and blood in the physical realm, so to does death prevail for those who do not haveAGAPE LOVE. Just as blood is hidden from view by the vale of the skin, so too is agapelove hidden by the veil of the skin.
BOTH LIE WITHIN, BEYOND THE SIGHT.
It is interesting to note that Jesus just finished saying in John 6:31-51 that HE WAS THEBREAD OF LIFE, AND THEN HE COMPARED HIMSELF TO THE MANNA THATCAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN. The bread, the manna that comes down from heaven is
THE AGAPE LOVE BESTOWEMENT.
It is granted
ONLY TO THEOVERCOMER, FOR IT IS THE OVERCOMER ONLY THAT IS GIVEN TO EATOF THE HIDDEN MANNA::He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches:TO HIM THATOVERCOMETHWILL I GIVE TO EAT OF THE HIDDEN MANNA......." (Revelation 2:17)
The word 'hidden' is "krupto" and it means
CONCEALED, COVERED, SECRET OR HIDDEN.
In other words
NOT VISIBLE, NOT KNOWN BY THE SENSE MAN,THE SOUL MAN.
We have already proved to you that MANKIND LOST AGAPELOVE AT THE FALL, he does not have it, he cannot know it. It is beyond him, beyondhis nature. He cannot learn it, he cannot obtain it via any normal learning process. It isnot granted to man in that manner.
 
"Whoso EATETH MY FLESH, AND DRINKETH MY BLOOD,HATH ETERNAL LIFE;AND I WILL RAISE HIM UP AT THE LAST DAY.For my flesh is meat indeed,and my blood is drink indeed.He that EATETH MY FLESH,AND DRINKETH MY BLOOD,DWELLETH IN ME, AND I IN HIM.(John 6:54-56)
The flesh and blood of Christ are now directly connected to ETERNAL LIFE. THEYARE
DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO UNION WITH CHRIST.
He also gives us theclues as to what He means by it all. He says that
HIS FLESH IS MEAT.
Meat is relatedto DOCTRINE,
DEEP DOCTRINE.
It relates back to the commands of Christ to
CONTINUE IN HIS DOCTRINES.
This should not surprise us, because Jesus came toTEACH MANKIND WHAT HE MUST DO TO ENTER THE NEW COVENANT. Oneof the commands is to
LEARN SOUND DOCTRINE.
If the flesh is doctrine, and we are to eat and DIGEST IT, then obviously we HEAR WHAT HE SAYS,
UNDERSTAND WHAT HE SAYS, AND APPLY IT.
It then becomes A PART OF US. Could this have anything to do with the TRANSFORMATIONOF OUR MINDS? Have we not been commanded to put on the mind of Christ? Themind is for thinking, the mind is the place for learning. The mind is the center for takingin DOCTRINE.It was the promise of Christ that if we would
CONTINUE IN HIS DOCTRINE,
wewould find
THE TRUTH, AND THIS TRUTH WOULD SET US FREE.
We knowthat this truth we must find is
AGAPE LOVE, AND THE BESTOWEMENT OFAGAPE LOVE BRINGS US ETERNAL LIFE (1 John 3:1; 3:14)
His blood is relatedto drink, and we have seen how blood relates also to the bestowement of agape love. Wehave come again full circle to the ONE ISSUE BETWEEN MAN AND GOD:
THE AGAPE LOVE ISSUE.
What we have then, is another proof of the TWO ASPECTS OF CHRIST. ONE ISVISIBLE, EASILY DISCERNED BY THE SENSE MAN, SOUL MAN. This is theChrist of history, the Christ of the cross, the founder and finisher of our faith. MANKINDCOMES TO THIS CHRIST VIA THE PROCESS OF CONVERSION, because
 
conversion is an act of the
will of man accepting the claims of Christ.
Conversion brings us into the BODY OF CHRIST. Regeneration has nothing to do with conversion,they are quite the opposite.
Regeneration has nothing to do with the will of man: IT ISACCOMPLISHED BY THE WILL OF GOD.
There are many more verses to prove the two aspects of Christ, but what we have shownyou should prove it out. The fact that AGAPE LOVE was lost at the fall should beenough proof to anyone. It is not the Christ of the cross that saves us, it is
AGAPELOVE LIFE BESTOWED THAT SAVES US.
It might shock you to learn that AGAPELOVE IS NOT BESTOWED AT CONVERSION. It will come only if the believer entersthe strait gate and walks the narrow way
to the finding of life,
to the finding of theHIDDEN MANNA. We already know that the pot of manna was located in the Holy of Holies. You must go in to obtain it.
To stand in the outer court, and to claim by faithyou have it, is to invite certain and complete disaster.CONVERSION Vs REGENERATION
We are now going to investigate in brief the vital differences between conversion andregeneration, for the difference prove there are in fact TWO ASPECTS OF CHRIST.Conversion is something we do by an act of our will. Conversion is always to theHISTORICAL CHRIST, THE VISIBLE CHRIST. Regeneration is something God doesto us, totally
BY HIS WILL ALONE,
and it never concerns the outer conscious heart. Itis OF THE SPIRIT.
CONVERSION = ACT OF MAN'S WILLREGENERATION = ACT OF GOD'S WILL
It will be proven that modern Christianity is wholly wrong in claiming that Godregenerates a person the instant of conversion. Nothing could be further from the truth.The error of the vast majority of Christians was right here.
They were told by their falsepastors and false theologians that were REGENERATED INSTANTLY ATCONVERSION.
They not only were taught that, they bought into it hook, line andsinker. But when they died, when they stood before Christ, they found out the hard waythat they had been lied to, that they had bought into a
SATANIC LIE OF GIGANTICPROPORTIONS.
There are vast differences between the words conversion and the words used to describeregeneration. They do not even mean the same thing.
The false prophets HAD TOCHANGE THE DEFINITIONS OF CONVERSION AND REGENERATION, ANDTO BRING THEM TOGETHER.
 Notice that LIFE is at the end of the narrow way. We already know that LIFE IS AGAPE
