“Then you shall kill the bull before the LORD, by the door of the tabernacle of meeting. You shall take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger, and pour all the blood beside the base of the altar.” (Exod 29:11, 12)...
Continued from previous post.
“You shall also have the bull brought before the tabernacle of meeting, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the bull.” (Exod 29:10)
“Note that Moses, and not Aaron nor his sons provided the bullock for this occasion, the consecration of...
Many people are discouraged because they feel like their prayers are not being answered; they feel like God has forsaken them! God wants you to understand today that you didn't pray wrong and He's not refusing you! It's not your prayer that's being blocked, it's your answers!
Look at what...
We continue from our previous post.
“Then you shall take the garments (the Holy Garments), put the tunic on Aaron and the robe of the ephod, the ephod, and the breastplate, and grid him with the intricately woven band of the ephod. You shall put the turban (the “mitre”) on his head, and put the...
The Consecration of the Priesthood is found in Leviticus Chapter 8:1-36
NOTE: It will be noted that similarities exist between Exodus Chapter 29 and Leviticus Chapter 8 in regards to the consecration of the priesthood, the difference is merely that the first deals specifically with the...
The directions given to Moses for the construction of the Tabernacle may be found in Exod. 25 to 27, and the account of the performance of the work, in Exod. 35 to 40. The picture above on the left is one of the many typical representations of the Tabernacle found on the internet, one which we...
“The Tabernacle is the key to the divine plan, which alone explains the “mystery” of this Gospel age, which is the church and her special call to the privileges of sacrifice now and of glory by and by."
"And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those...
"Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, and be found in Him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that...
The following are some interesting questions asked by a member of the forum in response to our study of the Mediator and the New Covenant.
I'm curious as to why you think the new covenant is not already in place?
In Reply, The New Covenant cannot go into place (become operative) until the...
"...Who of us can dwell with the consuming fire? Who of us can dwell with everlasting burning? Those who walk righteously and speak what is right....their bread will be supplied, and water will not fail them. Your eyes will see the King in His beauty and view a land that stretches afar." -...
"that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, that the Christ may dwell, through faith, in your hearts, being rooted and founded in love, - Ephesians 3:16,17
As believers we are rooted and grounded in His...
There is more than one reference to 'harlot' in the word. What is a harlot? The concordance says: a primitive root(highly fed and therefore wanton); to commit adultery: fornication. To commit idolatry.
Harlot being one that is highly fed and therefore wanton. "For all that is in the world, the...
“Behold the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant which they...
Having we hope now determined who specifically the Mediator is we would now like to address our last question, where and when does this mediation begin?
More to the point where (or with whom precisely is the new covenant mediated) and when will this mediation commence?
“Behold the days are...
Luke 13:20,21 - "To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened."
Much like light that exposes, or salt that preserves, leaven influences its surroundings in a subtle but overpowering way. So it is with...
We continue once again with our forth question, who specifically is the Mediator?
In this study we would like to take a quick look at the “Testator” to see how this is related to the Mediator.
Testator: a person who has made a will or given a legacy.
“And for this reason he is the Mediator of...
Who specifically is the Mediator?
As we had stated at the end of our last post the typical answer to this question is Christ, but who is THE Christ? What say the Scriptures?
“For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also...
2 Samuel 5:20, "So David went to Baal Perazim, and David defeated them there; and he said, "The Lord has broken through my enemies before me, like a breakthrough of water."
David is speaking about his experience with the Lord's breakthrough. He describes it like an outburst of waters that is...
Once again our question: Who are the parties in dispute who require mediation?
The Scriptures indicate that the two parties are God on the one hand and the “sons of disobedience” on the other; those not yet reconciled to him, “children of wrath”, out of harmony both with himself and with his...
Who are the parties in dispute who require mediation?
In the general sense we have already addressed this question by affirming that the dispute is between God and the “sons of disobedience” (Eph 5:6), that it is these two parties who have need of mediation in order to facilitate...
