Debrecen Messages #8 -Genesis 1–2 and the One New Man: God’s Purpose for a New Humanity

I’ll tell you a story. This is not in the Bible. God decides to create a man, and he’s the last thing that God creates. So, He and all the angels come to earth. And all of the angels wonder what it is God’s about to create, and so God takes dirt and begins to work with it, and one of the angels says, oh we don’t know what this is, but it belongs to the earth. Like the cattle, it’s out of dirt, so it belongs to this planet earth, dirt, earth. Man will be for this planet, so God shapes this man, and there he is a dirt, beautiful. And they look at that piece of dirt so beautifully made, sculpted like Michelangelo would do with stone, God does with earth, and one of the angels says, “That piece of earth reminds me of something. What is it? Oh, it kind of looks like God would if God were visible.

And then the angels are waiting for man to come alive, and they’re waiting to see how he comes alive, and they figure that God is going to take the air on the earth and throw it into man and wake him up, and God turns to the angels and says wait here and God lifts off the earth and rises above the clouds and above the skies and above the heavens and the stars and goes through the door and returns to heavenly places, and then this is what God does.

He takes a deep breath of heaven’s air. God is in the heavens now. And He goes and He breathes in the air of heaven. The wind of heaven, the holy wind, locks this of heaven into Himself, returns to earth, bows down before the man, and goes…He breathed into his nose, and the air, the wind of heaven, begins to go down into the dirt of still, unliving man, begins to make its way deep down into his inmost parts, and the angels can see the wind down there circling, and the body of the man begins to glow. And one of the angels says, Wait a minute, this is something.

He’s made out of the dirt of earth, but he also has the wind of heaven. Now, I’m an angel and I am made out of spirit. I’m made out of heaven. I’m made out of the things of heaven. I was made out of spirit. And heaven is spirit. Here’s a man made out of dirt. Like the cows. And the lamb. And the sheep. And the dog. And the cat. And the horse. And the tree. And the herb. And the fish. They’re made out of earth, we’re it made out of heaven’s wind. We belong to two realms, heaven and earth. Two different worlds.

What’s going on here? Here’s a man who’s made out of heaven and earth. And here’s my point. And you must never forget it as long as you live. You don’t belong just to this planet, and you don’t belong just to heaven.

I need help here on a word in your language. In our country, we will breed a donkey and a horse, and we will get a mule, and we call it a hybrid. And we’ll take two different kinds of wheat and put them together, and we call it a hybrid. What’s that in your language? A what? Some sort of cross. The crossbreeding of. Okay, you have mules. You do have mules. What’s the word in your language? Hybrid. A hybrid, hybrid, okay. Hybrid. Heber, same word. Okay, good. …? Leave it to the Hungarians to say something you can’t recognize.

Hybrid. Okay. Man is a hybrid. That man is a hybrid. That man, as we will see, is part spirit, and part earth, part heaven and earth, and so are you, and you have a right to both worlds, you have a right to both worlds.

Now, when the spirit and the dirt came together, there was formed a unique soul, not like the soul of the cattle. This soul, wow, this is important, so I want you all to listen to it really closely.

This soul, oh man, you know that we are spirit, soul, and body. Spirit, soul, and body. There’s a lot of emphasis put on spirit, soul, and body, and I will put a lot of emphasis on spirit, soul, and body, but I want you to know that your spirit and your soul are almost identical in appearance or function. They are very, very similar. In an unfallen state, I would say that man’s soul was in the image of the spirit.
