THE WORD BEGETS THE WORDLIGHT begets LIGHT & DARKNESS BEGETS DARKNESS

• And God said, Let the earth put forth [tender] vegetation: plants yielding SEED and fruit trees yielding fruit whose SEED is in itself, each according to its KIND, upon the earth. And it was so. (Gen 1:11)

• God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, according to their KINDS, and every winged bird according to its KIND. And God saw that it was good (suitable, admirable) and He approved it. (Gen 1:21)

3RD DAY SEMINARS 10

Gen 1:24-25 AMP

(24) And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their KINDS: livestock, creeping things, and [wild] beasts of the earth according to their KINDS. And it was so.

(25) And God made the [wild] beasts of the earth according to their KINDS, and domestic animals according to their KINDS, and everything that creeps upon the earth according to its KIND. And God saw that it was good (fitting, pleasant) and He approved it.

• Why does GOD repeat KINDS so much? B’cos its important

3RD DAY SEMINARS 11

• Every Living thing by divine edict can only reproduce after its KIND

• This is not only limited to physical creation.

• It extends to the spiritual realm and spiritual creation too

• God Himself can only reproduces after His KIND

• The Dragon or the Old Serpent also can only reproduce after its KIND

3RD DAY SEMINARS 12

• The phrase ITS KIND is taken from the Hebrew word “meen”and it means a sort, that is, SPECIES: - kind.

• Within each creature, the creator put seed for reproduction i.e. be fruitful and multiply but this seed can only reproduce that specie—not another

• An ant seed cannot produce an elephant

• If a seed is taken from a species that flies like the eagle, that seed cannot produce a specie that crawls like a snake. It can ONLY produce after its KIND—meaning what it produces will also have wings

• To be created in His Image and Likeness means we were created after His KIND.

• The fall introduced death and came about as a result of the introduction of strange seed i.e. that of the old serpent

3RD DAY SEMINARS 13

• Seeds come from Fathers, not Mothers

• Fathers are sowers/farmers

• Fathers/Farmer sow the word (Mark 4:14)

• Spiritual seeds are words

• If Father has something programmed into his seed e.g. stealing, killing destruction, it will pass into its offspring

• Vice versa is also true. It’s the original. The dragon only copied.

3RD DAY SEMINARS 14

• Who is a Father?

• The Old Serpent’s is a Father and reproduces after its KIND—meaning it can only reproduce other SERPENTS—not eagles or sheep. Serpents, snakes do their father’s lusts, and are murderers and liars.

2Co 3:2-3

(2) [No] you yourselves are our LETTER/EPISTLE … written in your hearts, to be known (perceived, recognized) and read by everybody.

(3) You show and make obvious that you are a LETTER from Christ delivered by us, not written with ink but with [the] Spirit of [the] living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. [Exod. 24:12; 31:18; 32:15, 16; Jer. 31:33.]
