Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life

In Genesis 1:20-23『And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. 』 『Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, creature, in Hebrew, means living creature. In Genesis 2:7, "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. This soul is the same word as Genesis 1:20. Birds and sea animals are both souls. In other words, it is a living creature. When humans or all animals born in this world were first created together, they are living creatures. However, man was born as a contemplative soul. Therefore, the Bible tells us that the Spirit from God is dead. In 1 Corinthians 15:37『 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: 』 The Apostle Paul explains the resurrection.『 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body. 』(Verse 38) When the peel of the seed dies, the life in it appears and grows. 『All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. 』(39-40) Sowing is a grain, but it is not a future shape. This shape (soma) has the meaning of a house, not a body mass. When Jesus said that he would destroy and erect the temple in three days, he expressed his body as a temple, and that body (soma) is the shape spoken here. It means that God gives the future shape of a house in the shell of the seed. This is what the Apostle Paul said when describing the resurrection. Here, the house is the body of the spirit. 『There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. 』(40-41) In the flesh, there are future shapes, some of which belong to heaven, and some of which belong to the earth. The figure in heaven is the body of the spirit (new man), and the figure in the earth is the body of fresh (old man). 『It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. 』(44) So, the old man must die, be reborn as a spirit body, and the spirit survives and enters the house (spirit body). 『So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: 』(42) It is the spirit that survives. It is only when the spirit puts on the body of the spirit (the tabernacle). That's why Jesus in John 6:63『 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. 』 There is a reason for heresy when talking about the Spirit. At the time of the Early Church, there was a time when Gnosticism spread. While emphasizing that human beings should be divided into spirit, soul, and flesh, and become spiritual beings, they thought they could become spiritual beings through the wisdom of enlightenment like Buddhism. According to the Wikipedia lexicon, "Gnostics regarded Jesus as a victim of the painful material world to bring and teach Gnossis (true knowledge) as a means to save mankind, and to think of it as a false Messiah. did." But through the Bible, what Jesus says is not the blessing of this world, but the blessing of the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is a spirit world. So, it is not the salvation of the human being composed of the spirit and the body, but the salvation of the spirit that the spirit must return to the kingdom of God wearing the body of the spirit. The flesh returns to the ground. In Ecclesiastes 12:7, 『Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. 』 In 1 Corinthians 15:47-49『 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. 』 The image of the earth belongs to the body of flesh, and the image of heaven belongs to the spirit. So the Bible tells us that the body that the second Adam, Jesus Christ, was resurrected to is the body of the spirit. If you are not born again as a spirit body, you are only a living soul. Resurrection is taking off the body of fresh. The event that Lazarus died in the Bible and the daughter of Jairus, the synagogue leader, died, and the spirit returned, is not a resurrection. You can say resuscitation. These two will surely die again. However, the resurrected Jesus has a body that will never die. Life on earth wears a house of flesh in the seed. So, after generation, we continue to live, prosper and live. 『God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth 』. Like the creatures in heaven and water, humans on earth continue their lives in succession as well. The Bible tells us to understand the laws of heaven through the laws of the earth. Through the figure of the earth (body of the flesh), it is to realize the figure of heaven (the body of the spirit). So, it is to be filled with heaven and seawater (the word of God). In 1 Corinthians 15:45『 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 』 Here, it means that living spirit is a living creature as well. The first man Adam keeps the spirit dead, but the last Adam saves the spirit. The first Adam is the one who delivers the "fresh body" that causes the spirit to die, and the last Adam is the one who delivers the body of the spirit that saves the spirit. So, the Bible says that the first man, Adam, became the symbol of the last Adam. In other words, it is a victim. The appearance in the Garden of Eden symbolizes the appearance of the kingdom of God. Adam, Christ, and Eve are angels who do not keep their status as deceived by Satan because they want to be like God in the kingdom of God. Christ and spirits were one in the kingdom of God. Thus, God expresses in the form of separation through one body to confine the sinful spirits. The separation of Eve from Adam was originally one in the kingdom of God, and it was the departure of Eve. So the first man, Adam, gives his wife a body of flesh, and the last Adam, gives his bride a body of spirit. The first man, Adam, is the image of the last Adam.
