Christ as the Threefold Seed, Threefold Dispensing, and Three Becomings

 

Christ as the Threefold Seed, Threefold Dispensing, and Three Becomings

Galatians 3:16 For the promise was made to Abraham and to his descendants. It does not say, “and your descendants,” as if referring to many people, but “and your descendants,” referring to one person, even Christ.

Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.

Galatians 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

Rom 1:3 Concerning His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was descended from David according to the flesh,

Rev 22:16 I, Jesus, have sent My angel to bear witness to these things to you on behalf of the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, the bright and morning star.

Acts 2:30 Now David, being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would raise up one of his descendants to sit on his throne,

This table shows Christ's three aspects of person and work: 

l   Seed of the Woman - The incarnated Christ, to destroy Satan and save believers from sin and death

l   Seed of Abraham - Became the life-giving Spirit, dispensing Himself into believers to make them the corporate seed of Abraham

l   Seed of David - The resurrected Christ, fulfilling God's New Testament economy, enabling believers to partake of His kingship in the eternal kingdom

 

Conclusion:

The three aspects of Christ as the threefold seed reveal God's complete salvation plan, from incarnation to the dispensing of life, and finally to the realization of the kingdom, fulfilling the divine economy. These three aspects are closely connected, forming a complete picture of Christ's redemption and dispensing. Christ as the threefold seed—the seed of woman, the seed of Abraham, and the seed of David—represents God's progressive revelation and work in saving us from Satan, sin, and death, making us partakers of His divine nature, and enabling us to reign with Him in His eternal kingdom.
