Adam fell through the partaking of a fruit. Messiah came as the second Adam to undo his fall. As Adam partook of the fruit of the trees, so Messiah, on the sixth day, also partook of fruit as He drank the cup of the fruit of the vine. This time, the fruit was crushed, as Messiah’s life would likewise be crushed. Adam ate the forbidden fruit and was sentenced to death. Messiah drank the cup of crushed fruit and then was led to his death. Adam was taken from a garden to the place where he would die. Messiah would also be taken from a Garden, the Garden of Gethsemane, to his death. We who follow the Lord are told to partake of that same cup— the cup of the Lord’s Supper. It’s not just a cup of fruit, but of crushed fruit. For by partaking of the crushing of Messiah and His death and dying to self is the power to overcome the curse of Adam. The more we do so, the more we will overcome, for the blessings of the Tree of Life now come to us in a cup of crushed fruit.
From Message #1247 - Sixth Day Revelation Mystery
Today, partake of the crushing of Messiah by dying to yourself and overcoming the curse.
