The holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed !
Eph 4:30
And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
One of the main purposes of a seal is to mark ownership, legal right of possession; proprietorship.
Now this is in line with the Truth of Redemption, for in Redemption all for whom Christ died have been purchased with a price, and are His purchased possession, and so by that He sends the Seal of the New Birth, Heart Circumcision, because without the Spirit, there is no evidence that we are His own possession Rom 8:9
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
He did not purchase you by His Blood !
2 Cor 1:22
22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
Listen, If Christ died and redeemed us, then to prove that He did, to confirm our being purchased, He seals us with His Spirit in our Hearts by New Birth, for the Redeemed have the Spirit sent into their Hearts Gal 4:4-6
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
That word redeem in Vs 5 the greek word exagorazō means to:
II.to buy up, to buy up for one's self, for one's use
Paul writes in 1 Cor 6:20
20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
That price is not our believing, our repentance, or anything we did, but it was the Precious blood of Christ, AND THATS IT !
That alone made everyone He died for His Purchased Possession, and that entitled them to be sealed by the Spirit as a mark of His Owner Ship redemptively by His Blood !
The Only way a man or women does not receive this Sealing of the Spirit is because they were none of His Rom 8:9
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Because the Spirit is proof of ownership ! 4
