Look for three heavens if you can within that verse I quoted.
Look then at the three levels of creatures "saved" in the ark that Noah built according to God's precise instructions.
Look then for three levels within the tabernacle in the wilderness which Moses built according to God's precise instructions.
Unclean beasts were saved. Clean beasts were saved. Men were saved. Where to from there? Was not Jesus present in all three levels?
The natural children of Israel did not, for the most part, have a clue about the real meaning or even the shadow of the real meaning to their repeated sacrifices taken into the tabenacle in the wilderness. Why did Caleb and Joshua live to enter into the Promised Land while the rest of those "saved" out of their enslavement in Egypt died in the wilderness?
Are men beasts living in accord with their own beastly ways?
What did Solomon write about that?
"Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table." Prov. 9:1-2
I have so many questions that I’m not expecting to be answered but I still have them. For example “wisdom has built her house”. There are two wisdoms spoken of one) devilish which descends not from above (instead sits where it ought to not be sitting?) and is earthly. Another wisdom descends (comes down?) from above first is pure, then gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits (instead of being full of all unrighteousness?)
without partiality, without hypocrisy.
without partiality, another question is pertaining to the ark Noah built with three levels (three levels of heaven?). How does Noah’s ark whereby only eight were saved differ from the ark built of God in the NT with Christ as the foundation? The working of the Spirit, The Ark that grows up in Christ, built for an habitation of of God? This Ark here Ephesians 2:17-22. Question being in Noah’s ark there were those unclean beast. but what is unclean in the Ark God has built which could be the same as asking: what unclean enters into Christ except it first is burned and remains not?
third and final question is pertaining to Paul’s confession of being caught up to the third heaven. I would not bet my life on it but I still wonder how that automatically becomes Paul who was caught up to the third heaven. When Paul said he knew a man …whether in the body or out of the body he could not tell “knowing this man” but of this man he will boast. What of the other scriptures where Paul mentions his boast being in Christ, always. How if he boast, he will make his boast of Christ. So how do we know for certain Paul is speaking about himself as the one caught up to the third heaven and not Christ who is caught up?
2 Corinthians 12:2-65
Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10.
