The Incorruptible Seed

1 Peter 1:18-23, NLT

For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And the ransom he paid was not mere gold or silver.

He paid for you with the precious lifeblood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. God chose him for this purpose long before the world began, but now in these final days, he was sent to the earth for all to see. And he did this for you.

Through Christ you have come to trust in God. And because God raised Christ from the dead and gave him great glory, your faith and hope can be placed confidently in God.

Now you can have sincere love for each other as brothers and sisters because you were cleansed from your sins when you accepted the truth of the Good News. So see to it that you really do love each other intensely with all your hearts.

For you have been born again. Your new life did not come from your earthly parents because the life they gave you will end in death. But this new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God.


We are born again of the seed of the Word of God. It is without corruption. It is not corruptible. The Word of God is a living Word. It is eternal and will abide forever. Forever His Word is settled in heaven. His Word is alive and powerful. His Word produces results. This Word is the seed of God planted in our being which produces Godly results in our lives. Never doubt the power of the Word of God to bring about results in your life. Every time His Word works.
