In Adam, humanity is born of corruptible seed by the will of the flesh of man. Those who choose to reject the saving hand of God, choose to forever exchange the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man.
Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures. Rom 1:22-23 NAS
But those who are born of God, are born of incorruptible seed.
who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:13 NAS
Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. 1 Peter 1:23 KJV
Just the word incorruptible, speaks volumes, and the Greek word used in the New Testament for incorruptible is defined much as we might think. Incorruptible means incorruptible and much more:
Strongs 862 - aphthartos - Definition: undecaying, imperishable - Usage: indestructible, imperishable, incorruptible; hence: immortal.
If you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, you are born-again. Just stop and consider that your Spirit is born of God, born of incorruptible seed. Meditate on this truth and really let it sink deep into your heart and mind. Your Spirit has been redeemed, justified, made righteous, sanctified, made holy, set apart, perfected and complete, by the precious incorruptible blood of Jesus.
For as much as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 1Peter 1:18-19 KJV
How do you think something can be kept incorruptible? Would it not need to be sealed in some way from any possibility of contamination, like donated blood, for example? Well, this is exactly what God has done, redeemed by the precious incorruptible blood of Jesus, our Spirit has been born-again incorruptible and sealed in Christ by the Holy Spirit. It is Christ who keeps our Spirit incorruptible.
but [let it be] the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable/incorruptible quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God. 1 Peter 3:4 NAS (emphasis mine)
Who also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge. 2 Cor 1:22 NAS
In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of His glory. Eph 1:13-14 NAS
The incorruptible has overcome the corruptible.
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world-- our faith. 1 John 5:4 NAS
"And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death Rev 12:11 NAS
Our redemption is guaranteed in Christ, perfected in the Spirit. But flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. We receive a new glorified body that is in perfect sync with our already incorruptible born-again Spirit when we leave this world.
Now I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable/incorruptible. Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable/incorruptible, and we will be changed. For this perishable/corruptible must put on the imperishable/incorruptible, and this mortal must put on immortality. 1 Cor 15: 50-53 NAS (emphasis mine)
A great incorruptible inheritance awaits as we are co-heirs with Christ.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercyhas caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to [obtain] an inheritance [which is] imperishable/incorruptible and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1 Peter 1:3-5 NAS (emphasis mine)
God calls us to walk by faith in His promises and what He tells us is true, and not by sight in the flesh. Our flesh has not been born of God and sin has been condemned in all flesh. We are called to see our flesh as crucified and dead on the cross with Christ, the old creation dead and the new creation in Christ, ALIVE. We are called to see ourselves in the Spirit, in Christ, in the new creation and no longer in the old we still see by sight in a mirror. We are called to do these things, because God who sees the end from the beginning, already sees all of this work completed. When by faith, we agree with God, we walk with God and experience much greater victory in this life are well able to do the living works he has prepared for us to do.
Now unto the King eternal, incorruptible, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Tim 1:17 ERV
Many more New Covenant Bible Studies HERE. Jesus poured out His blood for the New Covenant of grace and truth, replacing the Old Covenant law of Moses. Believers are exclusively under the New Covenant, the last will and testament of Jesus that began after the cross.
And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood. Luke 22:20
