Like the Borg in Star Trek ( "Borg" was a derogatory abbreviation of "cyborg" used by many inhabitants of the galaxy, including those residing on Aduba-3, in contrast to "normal organics." Google), Rome would conquer the Tribes or cities in their path and assistmilate them into their New World Order. Each of the families that were conquered were adopted by a Roman Family and became fully vetted by the Romans as heirs with an inheiritance, be sealed, and learn how to conduct themselves as Romans.
This Star Trek analogy may help us understand that we, those in Jesus are:
- The chosen ones in Christ that are adopted into God's Family
- Sealed with His Holy Spirit
- Given an inheritance
- Learn to be pleasing to God
- Preserve the unity of the Body of Christ
- Surrender/submit ourselves to Jesus and those in authority above us
All at the speed of Paul.
More reminders to the Jewish and Gentile Believers in Ephesus and to believers today that spiritual blessings are different than earthly blessings. so set your affections on those things above and not on things on earth. There is a world beyond the one in which we live that will last forever, unlike this one, which is a blessing because when all things are made new there will be no more crying and no more pain.
Spiritual Blessings explained simply in this Episode:
- Predestination
- Adoption
- Redemption
- Acceptance
- Forgiveness
