Elohim and His Bride | The Body of Christ Extending Ego Deaths Across the Collective

As we approach the prophetic reset of humankind, the significance of ego death within the collective consciousness becomes increasingly pertinent. In Messianic Judaism, Elohim (אֱלוֹהִים‎) and His bride, the Body of Christ, play a pivotal role in this transformative process. This article explores how Elohim and His bride extend ego deaths throughout the collective, emphasizing its necessity as we pave the way for the New Jerusalem (יְרוּשָׁלַיִם הַחֲדָשָׁה‎).

Understanding Ego Death

Ego death is the dissolution of the self-centered, egoic identity that separates us from the Divine. It is a spiritual awakening, allowing individuals to align with Elohim’s will. As Paul states in Galatians 2:20 (WMB), “I have been crucified with Messiah, and it is no longer I who live, but Messiah lives in me.” This verse underscores the importance of relinquishing personal ego to embrace a Christ-centered life.

The Role of Elohim and the Bride of Christ

Elohim, the Creator, and His bride, the Body of Christ, are instrumental in facilitating ego deaths within the collective. The Body of Christ, united in purpose, serves as the conduit through which Elohim’s transformative power flows. This union is depicted in Ephesians 5:25–27 (WMB): “Messiah also loved the assembly and gave himself up for it, that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.”

The Necessity of Ego Deaths

As humanity approaches the prophetic reset, ego deaths are crucial for several reasons:

1. **Spiritual Renewal:** Ego death enables spiritual renewal, aligning individuals with Elohim’s divine plan. Romans 12:2 (WMB) instructs, “Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.”

2. **Unity in Diversity:** The dissolution of ego fosters unity within the Body of Christ. As 1 Corinthians 12:12–13 (WMB) explains, “For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Messiah. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.”

3. **Preparation for the New Jerusalem:** Ego deaths prepare the collective for the establishment of the New Jerusalem. Revelation 21:2–3 (WMB) describes this vision: “I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband. I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, ‘Behold, God’s dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.’”

Hebrew Verbiage and Symbols

Incorporating Hebrew symbols and verbiage enriches our understanding of these spiritual concepts. The term “Elohim” itself is a plural noun, indicating the multifaceted nature of the Divine. The Hebrew word for ego, “גַּאֲוָה” (Ga’avah), contrasts with “עֲנָוָה” (Anavah), humility. This dichotomy is central to the process of ego death and spiritual rebirth.

Conclusion

Elohim and His bride, the Body of Christ, are essential in extending ego deaths throughout the collective, a process vital for the prophetic reset and the establishment of the New Jerusalem. As we embrace this transformation, we align with the divine purpose, fostering unity and preparing for a renewed creation. By understanding and living these truths, we become active participants in Elohim’s grand design for humanity.

As we journey towards this prophetic future, may we remember the words of Isaiah 40:31 (WMB): “But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint.”
