In order to understand this chapter we shall examine the manner the Spirit sets Core Will by rearranging the narrative of God document. Core Will of God is of two parts. Firstly Fellowship of God with Man and lastly Salvation Plan of God. We shall take up the second aspect of the Salvation Plan of God. Thereafter we shall take up the Bride of Christ which is core value of the Fellowship of God with Man.
In order to illustrate the Holiness of God, we have this promise in Ge.12:3. All families of the earth are to be blessed through Abraham. Thus we are given a narrative where Israel is in focus. In keeping with the literary mode of the Spirit, we have this verse,"So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen(Matt.20:16)". Mode of inversion explains Jesus as the home chord to which everything else moves. So Moses as a stand-in leads the children of Israel to the Promised Land into which the Church is presented as the glorious Bride, 'forthe marriage of the Lamb has come,
andhis Bride has made herself ready (Re.19:6-7). Here is another: what is the significance of the 12 spies who brought a false report? (Nu.12:32). Joshua and Caleb were twospies who broughtback a goodreportand believed that God would help them succeed. Does not prosperity theology misinterpret to teach another gospel and another Christ? It indicates the same rebellious spirit of Israel, they chose instead to give a false report. Faith is the key.
The theme of Bride of Christ is already set in the Adam and Eve episode. God created man in 'our image' and male and female created he them. God led the house of Israel but their disbelief was so astounding. Isaiah speaks of the nation thus:"Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters. they have forsaken theLord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backwards."(Is.1:4-7)
