OFFSPRING! One of the most important Products of
this World! Wouldn’t you say so?
“When Paul (Acts 17:22-29) was speaking to the men
of Athens, who had an altar TO THE UNKNOWN
GOD. He told them about Yahweh.
“Yahweh that make the world and everything therein,
seeing he is the Master of heaven and earth, dwells
not in temples made with hands; Neither is
worshipped with men’s hands as though he needed
anything, seeing he gives to all life, breath, and all
things. And has made of one blood all nations of men
to dwell on the face of the earth, and has determined
the times before appointed, and the bounds of their
habitation. That they might seek the Master, if haply
they might feel after him, and find him, though he be
not far from every one of us. For in him we live, and
move and have our being. As certain of your own
poets have said, for we are also his offspring.
A good reminder! ...Joyce Tintijer
………Offspring is found many times in the Bible.
People in all nations and religions have some kind of
idea that we are the offspring of the Creator of the
Universe. This factor is what causes people to feel
after or to search for him and to find him. Our lives
and our whole existence and being are in him because
we are his offspring. He is not far
From us. He is within us, or “hovers at the very portal
of our consciousness awaiting us to acknowledge his
presence. “Since we are the offspring, or kin to the
Supreme Creator of the universe, we ought to proudly
claim that heritage and
power. ...Gary H.
Offspring: are the children of parents….They are the
product of Reproduction….the young that spring forth
from parents- Be it animal, human or even plant life.
The Bible shows that we are the offspring of Yahweh –
often referring to us being The Children of The Most
High…….We are truly offsprings of our
Creator. ...Roger S.

Off-Spring -- …definition of the word suggests an
effort put into a project and the outcome of that
process is the off-spring. On a physical basis we
make babies that way. That is how they become our
off-spring. The gestation period is the process that
requires sufficient time to allow effort to be invested to
produce our off-spring.
... On a Spiritual Basis we are becoming our Fathers’
off-spring. This physical life is the gestation period
during which he invests effort in us. We respond and
grow to a place of more autonomy and become His off-
spring. …Teresa H.
In the Old Country a person’s wealth was measured by
his flocks his wives, and his offspring. It was a
practical way of life....flocks meant food, wool, and
when a person could trade or sell them, extra money.
A man’s wives, usually three, guaranteed enough
fertile eggs to birth children, especially male children,
who could do for the home hearth and the tending of
the flocks.
In today’s world, one wife is about all a man can
handle. Children are not appreciated in bulk…usually
only one or two are enough, and they can’t even
begin to account to the family the same worth they
had long ago.
Yet the human race would have vanished long ago if it
weren’t for our offspring. And, offspring will be
needed in the future. Whether by natural means or by
Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and their propensity
for cloning.
And we must not forget the most famous offspring of
them all. Yahshua Messiah, who came, was born of a
woman, so that his sonship would pave the way for
man’s eternity… ….Ed C.
This Month's Word... OFFSPRING By Darlene Chaffin We often label the things in our daily life as not being spiritual. Labels are a box that can shut away the possible insight from a person, place, or thing. Here, at The Word Cafe', we explore the spiritual aspects of seemingly mundane words. Join us as we share our various perceptions into... the things of our world.

As we walk and talk in the world each day,
We effect the earth in an unusual way.
Did you know, without being aware,
We leave “us” in the air?
My cells and energy remain in the wake of my passing…
(Remaining for others to absorb and retain.
Just as I inherit theirs - it is all the same.)
Yes, the cycle of life and death is this minute & everlasting.
With this knowledge and responsibility I vow,
Since my offspring is the outcome of the person I am now,
To release the highest and best this physical me can…
As I raise my physical energy within the great I AM.
… Dina Clark
