Title Deed To The Earth
sealed with 7 sealswritings on both sides
Adam was given dominion or title over the earth, Genesis 1:28-31. After Adam ate the fruit of the Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil, then sin, death, and shame, entered the world. Adam along with Eve were kicked out of the Garden of Eden. Adam also forfeited the title deed of the earth which gave dominion to Satan who succeeded in tempting Adam to sin.
In Matthew 4:8-10, Jesus is taken up to a high mountain and Satan offers to give Jesus the kingdoms of the earth, if Jesus will bow down to him. Jesus did not say to Satan he does not have the right to make such an offer, instead Jesus quotes the Word (Mat 4:10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’4:10 Deut. 6:13”) and refuses the offer. This implies that the offer from Satan to give Jesus the entire earth was a valid offer. Satan was called the prince of this earth several times: John 12:31 Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out.
In the book of Ruth, Boaz by his own grace, pays money for, then redeems and gives the land Naomi is selling back to her and restores the inheritance to Naomi's family line by giving his son Obed to her by law. Obed becomes the father of Jesse, the father of David, eventually leading to the birth line of Jesus.
Jesus, later as the Lamb Of God in Revelation 5, is worthy to open the scroll which is the title deed to the earth, redeem the earth from Satan's hold, and restore it back to his bride's family, the Church. This prepares the earth for the thousand year reign of Jesus with his church on earth.
Amen. And yeah to that Church.
