You as a Messianic Prophecy

Wednesday, April 12, 2023

It says in the scripture, "in the fullness of time, God sent His Son into the world.." Now the word fullness in Greek is "pleroma." The picture is of a glass filling up, the filling up of time. The Jewish understanding of time is that it is something with a purpose set by God. So your life is like a cup. It's the cup of God's purposes, written over your life, waiting to be fulfilled. It's a cup of holiness; of righteousness; of a victorious life; of peace; of joy and blessing. You can't fill your life. He is the one who fills everything, the pleroma who is the fulfillment of us. He came into the world in the fullness, the pleroma, of time. He comes into our lives to also give us fullness. Messiah is the fullness specifically of your life. In the same way there are a lot of different Messianic prophecies but He fulfills all of them. So your life is like a Messianic prophecy waiting to be fulfilled. He is the pleroma, not only of the Hebrew Scriptures and of the universe, but of your life.
