The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and set me in the middle of a valley it was full of bones. Let us begin our study of the one new Man by turning to the thirty-seventh chapter of the Book of Ezekiel. We understand God has used and is using the various religious institutions to perform His will but in this essay we are looking at the future. When we consider the various Christian organizations of our time it is difficult to picture one new Man emerging from all these manmade “babylons.” But the creation of the one new Man shall take place indeed for the God of Heaven cannot accomplish His plans for the heavens and the earth except through Christ-Head and Body. And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, To be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment-to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ. The one new Man is Christ-Head and Body, the Servant of the Lord, the Messiah who is to come, and, ultimately, the new Jerusalem. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace, (Ephesians 2:15) THE GIANT AWAKENS By abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. If we plan on appearing with Christ when He appears, our task now is to find and develop our place in the Body of Christ. When the Lord Jesus returns He will be both in and with the giant, which is His Body, His Church. According to the Scriptures, the giant will awaken in the last days. Today the Body of Christ is as a sleeping giant. Used by permission of Zondervan Bible Publishers. Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 International Bible Society.
