Remember when Jesus says these words in Jn 12:24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
Jesus here is speaking of the consequences of His death, He being the corn of wheat that should fall into the ground and die. And if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. Its no doubt about it. What is the much fruit ? Fruit is the greek word karpos:
fruit, generally vegetable, sometimes animal, (b) met: fruit, deed, action, result, (c) profit, gain.
τά ἔκγονα τῆς κοιλίας); τῆς ὀσφύος the fruit of one's loins, i. e. his progeny, his posterity,
Metaphorically, that which originates or comes from something; an effect, result;
Jesus Christ death shall result in/effect fruit / His Posterity or Progeny
Its what Isa 53 predicted here as a result /effect of His death Isa 53:10
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
The word seed here zara and means:
a sowing, seed, offspring, seed (= posterity),
From zara'; seed; figuratively, fruit, plant, sowing-time, posterity
Metaphorcially speaking but really bonifide Jesus fruit/seed, posterity is the seed of Abraham Gal 3:29
29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Which see is evidenced by Faith Gal 3:8
7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
The Spiritutal believing seed/offspring, posterity of Abraham are the products, fruit of Christ death as that corn of wheat that falleth to the ground and die in Jn 12:24
