Hidden Secrets of the Sanctuary Revealed: Jesus and the Plan of Salvation | An Advocate For Our Time

0:00 [Music] [Music]

0:58 oh [Music] all right the next one we we'll discuss over here the next lecture is an advocate for our time and it's a provocative picture that we have over here with the tables of stone and the Finger of God in the background well Exodus 31:8 says and he gave unto Moses when he had made made an end of communing with him upon Mount Si two tablets of testimony tables of stone written with the Finger of God so God wrote in stone The Ten Commandments he

1:47 wrote them with his own finger Exodus 32:16 says and the tables were the work of God and the writing was the writing of God Graven upon the table now in fact there are only three times in the Bible when God wrote and all three times he wrote with his finger that's this one Exodus 32 verse 16 God wrote the Ten Commandments in stone with his finger Jesus wrote In The Sand with his finger finger and when Babylon was about to fall the hand wrote with a finger

2:32 against the wall so that's fascinating God wrote himself three times and every time it was with his finger and when Moses had smashed these tables because the children of God had apostasis while he was on the mount Deuteronomy 10:2 says and I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables God says make another set of tables which thou breakast and thou shal put them in the ark so the tables of the testimony containing the Ten Commandments written with the Finger of God were placed inside the ark right now let us first Define the

3:18 question of sin it's very important that we know where we stand on these issues because there are many teachings in the world out there and we want to stay Bible based 1 John 3:4 whosoever committeth sin transgresses also the law for sin is the transgression of the law is that pretty plain so if you transgress God's law then you are committing sin so if I steal do I transgress God's law yes if I do anything contrary to God's law by definition of the New Testament then I'm sinning that's the

4:05 New Testament we look at a dictionary as to what transgression is it's a stepping over to transgress the act of transgressing the breaking or violation of any law so if you're going to transgress there must be a law Romans 4:5 says where no law is there is no transgression that's f fascinating So Adam and Eve did they have a law yes they must have had a law otherwise they couldn't have transgress now can God's law change you think it's written in stone does that say something it's written in stone now man can change laws but God's law doesn't change you know in South

4:52 Africa where I come from they had some strange laws in our country some weird laws and they've been changed in the past there was a laww which was called the immorality act and if a white man was in the company of a black lady or vice versa then uh that was problematic you could go to jail today that law is rescinded it is no more and it's no problem so you see you can either remove the law to remove the problem or if the law stands well then it if you break it you're a transgressor right or wrong okay so if with there's no law there can be no transgression and Romans 6 ver 23

5:38 says the wages of sin which we've just defined by the Bible is transgression of the law so we could read it the wages of transgressing of God's law is death so this is an important issue some people say there is no law we cannot keep the law but the Bible clearly teaches that if we transgress God's law on the way Wes or sin or death now sin separates from god let's read that Isaiah 59:2 your iniquities that's your sins have separated you from your God that's important some like to turn this definition upside down I prefer to

6:25 keep the definition as the Bible says it sin is the transgression of the and if you sin that causes separation so we've been separated from God because of sin but there is a means of resolving the problem and that means is Christ Romans 6:23 for the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ Our Lord so now two possibilities Adam and Eve sinned and the wages of sin is death two possibilities either we do away with the law like in South Africa there was a law

7:13 it was a stupid law so they did away with the law there is no more law and so if there is no more law then there is no more transgression does that make sense yes so if we take away the law that solves the problem problem then you're free and everybody who was in jail because of the immorality Act was set free off you go there is no more law so you're no longer in transgression you're free did Christ do that did he set aside the law yes or no no you see the law said you will die so Christ could have said ooh I made a law but that law is too tough for you fellows so let's just take the law away

7:59 way but God doesn't change so now we have an impass the law says you will surely die but Christ did not deal with the issue lightly had he been had it been possible for him to take away the law would it then be necessary to pay the penalty of the law yes or no no no so in other words the fact that Christ came and died means he paid the penalty right or wrong does the law then still stand yes or no yes absolutely so some people like to say the cross does away with the law I would

8:46 like to tell you the cross is the guarantee that the law stands amen because had it been possible to take the law away then Christ need not have died does that make sense s okay I will put enmity remember that text between thee and the woman and between thy seed and her seed and he shall bruise thy head and thou shalt bruise his heel Genesis 3:15 there would be enmity between the devil and Christ for by Grace you are saved through faith and that not of yourself it is a gift of God's Not of Works lest any man should boast can I be saved by keeping the law no no I am saved by Grace Christ paid the penalty for me and

9:34 he died for me and by Grace I am saved if I accept the gift of Salvation I am saved by grace the law cannot save me the law is just writing the law is not a means to save me the law is just a means of telling me what is right and wrong does that make sense all right for sin shall not have have dominion over you for you are not under the law but under grace What then shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace what does Paul say there God forbid in other words what he's saying here

10:19 is Grace saves me and works cannot save me but sin must not rule over me transgression of the law must not be part of my life so because Grace saves me What then shall I now be able to sin yes or no God forbid God forbid Grace establishes the law I Look To the Cross and I say wow Lord why did you have to suffer for me and die and the Lord says because you are a transgressor and the law requires that you die therefore I I pray the price for you and that justice has been done justice has been done let me give

11:06 you an example if you have a little daughter if you have a little daughter some guy comes along rapes her beats her up mutilates her strangles her and leaves her lying there dead wow and you're crushed absolutely devastated stated and you go to court and the judge says now that was not a nice thing to do please say do it that you don't do it again off you go how would you feel cheated you would be pretty mad right because there was no what Justice no justice no justice whatsoever and God is

11:52 100% just but God is also 100% gracious ious tough to be both so God took upon himself the penalty and he paid the price and he died does he require your death also now there's a trick question for you yes yes he requires your death what kind of death does he require he requires the death of the old old man of sin in other words the old you must die and a new new must rise from the

12:41 dead in Christ through his power and his resurrection and the new man is transformed he's a transformed man and in Christ we walk this road again we we walk this road again and Christ gives us the strength to do what is right wow we have a second chance we have a second chance now if this murderer is sentenced to death and he completely repents and there he sits and somebody is willing to exchange places for with him and he has a second chance what

13:26 would he do run out and murder or would he perhaps consider wow I have a chance I better walk straight walk straight so God forbid that Grace should do away with keeping the law therefore by the Deeds of the law shall no flesh be justified in his sight we're not saved because of any good thing that we do for by the law is the what the knowledge of sin Romans 3:19 and 20 so the law cannot save me only Jesus can save me me but the law can tell me what's right and wrong so if I know what is right and I do it not what was that text we read then it be for me what sin okay so the

14:12 law tells me what sin is Romans 3:31 do we make void the law through faith what does he say God forbid yay we establish the law you know it's amazing how Paul is distorted on this particular point because people believe that we are under grace and keeping the law that was a Jewish thing no no no no no no the Bible teaches that we are under grace and that works cannot save us we can do what is right as much as we like if we don't accept the free gift of Salvation in Christ it's meaningless because only in a person there's Sal ation in Jesus

15:00 Christ but the Lord teaches me what is right and wrong and when I come into harmony with Christ I will keep his Commandments Jesus says if you love me keep my Commandments wherefore the law is Holy and the Commandment holy and just and good Romans 7 verse2 so the Bible clearly teaches that the cross does not take away the law it establishes the law it establishes the authority of the law because had it been possible to take it away Christ need not have died therefore there is now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but

15:46 after the spirit Romans 8 ver1 does the spirit like sin nope the spirit does not like sin so if you are in Christ you say Lord I long to do your will show me what is right and what is wrong and walk therein walk therein sin broke the relationship for Adam and his wife the Lord God made coats of skins and he clothed them Genesis 3: 21 here they had lost their robe of right righteousness and God in his Mercy says I will cover you again and he gives them the promise of the Messiah and he covers them with his

16:32 righteousness so the first symbol of death was an animal that died right or wrong yes an animal died and it became a type of Christ who would die for us now let's have a look at another law which is called the ceremonial law and it pertained to all the festivals and rules and regulations that Israel had to keep now remember the Ten Commandments were written how we read it by the Finger of God it was written on Stone and where were they to be placed in the AR in the ark the ceremonial law was written by

17:18 Moses and placed beside the ark let's read that carefully and it came to pass when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law who's writing now mes Moses in a book not on tablets of stone until they were finished that Moses commanded the Levites which bear the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord saying take this what book of the law and put it in the side of the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord your God that it may be there for a witness against the now remember that carefully engrave it it's good to engrave God's

18:05 word what must be there the book of the law and it serves as a what against us a testimony against us a witness against us so this law tells us something about ourselves right or wrong it tells us you are sinners the law The Ten Commandments tells us what sin is but this law tells us our part in this and it points us to the solution it points us to the solution there are two separate laws so the one was the tablets

18:50 of stone was placed in the ark written by the Finger of God the other was written on a scroll the book of the law placed beside the ark now the moral law in the Bible the Ten Commandments in James is called the Royal law it's called The Law of Liberty not the law of bondage the law of Liberty I'll tell you something if everybody on this planet kept the Ten Commandments we would be free inde deed did you know that because you can walk outside and you can get into your car you don't have to turn the lock you don't have to even turn the ignition just put your foot down and go you wouldn't need a key and you would have to have no fear at night not look left nor right nor anything nobody will come and clobber you over the head you would

19:37 be free if everybody kept the law of God right or wrong okay Exodus 31 says it was written with a finger of God on Stone Deuteronomy says it was placed inside the ark 1 John 3:4 to8 Romans 4 existed before sin didn't it say where there is no law there's no transgression yes and Adam and Eve transgressed so there must have been a law right or wrong yes all right Romans says the purpose is to reveal what sin is by the law is the knowledge of sin Deuteronomy 5:22 and Psalm 19:7 and Romans 7 and many many others it is complete it is perfect it is Holy it is

20:24 just it is good that's what he said about the law of God and Psalms 111:7 to8 says it shall stand forever let's look at the ceremonial law it's called The Law of Commandments contained in ordinances Ephesians 2:15 Hebrews 9 And1 it was written by Moses and it was put in a book of the Lord Deuteronomy 31 we just read that it was placed beside the ark not in the ark Deuteronomy 31:2 24:26 and it was given after sin after sin Galatians 3:19 the law was added because of transgression so transgression requires

21:10 a law so another law was added because of transgression so we have two laws the one is the ceremonial the other one is the moral and the purpose was to reveal the remedy for sin Leviticus 61 6-7 John 729 and Matthew 2751 it's temporary it will be done away with now we must know very well what we're dealing with here we must know these two sides of the story because in the Bible they talk about the law and you have to figure out from the context is it the moral law is it the ceremonial law tricky and you can get very confused if you don't know exactly what this definition is you have to know it

21:57 exactly so that's what it looked like there was the moral law it was inside and uh above it was a gold sheet which was called The Mercy Seat oh wonderful stuff I'll come to it just now and then the book of the law written by Moses with all the laws of Ceremonies placed inside it now there are four gospels written in the Bible it's the gospel of Matthew Mark Luke and John people say why is everything being repeated what's the point well there's lots of point because each one is slightly different Matthew talks about Christ the King Mark talks about Christ the servant Luke talks

22:42 about Christ the man and John talks about Christ the Divine so here you have all the aspects of the godhood now let's take a look at the five books of Moses and let's have a look at those gen Genesis is the book of Origins the fall and the promise of redemption so Christ is in that Exodus Christ Our sanctuary and we'll be dealing with that wow it's beautiful Leviticus Christ Our sacrifice the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world the lamb stood for who stood for Christ so Leviticus is Christ Our sacrifice numbers

23:29 is Christ our guide and Deuteronomy is Christ Our reward so the first five books of the Bible give you the Plan of Salvation in a nutshell tells us about the law and the ceremonial law tells us about the remedy for sin and since the remedy lies in a person all these issues deal with one individual only and that is Jesus Christ Genesis 26:5 fascinating text because that Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge my Commandments my statutes and my laws hello there are people that say that the Commandments belong to the

24:15 Jews and they were given at Sinai on the Ten Commandments on the tablets of stones right or wrong well what laws and statutes and Commandments did Abraham keep that was before the Jews obviously he kept the Commandments of God so all right the Commandments were there they were there from the beginning but because mankind is so forgetful they were given in stone again to posterity and Jesus said I have kept my father's Commandments and abide in his love Jesus sets the example he kept the Commandments Jesus says think not that I have come to destroy the law is referring there to the whole pent which is what the first five books of the

25:01 Moses but they contain the law of ten commandments so not one jot or one title will be removed that includes the Ten Commandments all the prophets everything that was been said by the prophets I have not come to destroy but to fulfill for verily I say unto you till Heaven and Earth pass not one chot or one title shall in no wise pass from pass from the law till all is fulfilled Matthew 5:17 and 18 so you see Jesus didn't come to change anything he came to fulfill it he is the Fulfillment of the ceremonial law he is the solution to sin and he came because the law of Ten

25:47 Commandments had condemned all of us to death and he came to do justice to pay the price so at the cross Justice and mercy kissed each other wow he says it is easier this is Jesus speaking for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of the pen to drop out of the law Luke 16 and7 16:1 17 do you see that the law stands yes or no okay so it stands 1 John 5 ver3 This is Love for God to obey his Commandments and and his Commandments are not burdensome some people say I cannot keep L God's law it's

26:33 impossible it's impossible I've had preachers tell me that preachers tell me it's impossible to keep God's Commandments we don't have to keep God's Commandments in fact the Commandments have been done away with I said preacher give me your wife I need her tonight he said what do you mean I said well there's no commandment which says Thou shalt not commit adultery no I didn't mean it like that I say well how do you mean it then how do you mean it then is it all right if I knock your daughter's block off is that okay no I didn't mean it I said so so so you shouldn't kill we going to run through them you know they all want them but they don't want them isn't that strange either they're there or they're not there the Lord says his Commandments

27:20 are not burdson and being made perfect he became the author of Eternal salvation and to all them that what obey him Hebrews 5:9 obedience if you have a gospel without obedience you have a half a gospel it's standing on one leg it's going to become unstable and it's going to fall now let's have a look at this this should KN your sock the law in the New Testament Matthew 4:10 or Revelation 1910 Thou shalt Worship the Lord thy God and him only shalt thou serve check it out for yourselves it's there it's New Testament I'm not quoting Old Testament here 1 John 521 acts 17:29 little

28:05 children keep yourselves from Idols that's the second commandment 1 Timothy 61 that the name of God and his Doctrine be not blasphemed if you look at Mark 22728 Hebrews 4:4 the Sabbath was made for man not man for the Sabbath therefore the son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath yeah honor your father and your mother Matthew 19 19 Ephesians 61:3 Thou shalt not kill Romans 13:9 James 2:11 Thou shalt not commit adultery Matthew 19:18 Thou shalt not steal Romans 13:9 Ephesians 4:20 Thou shalt not bear false witness Romans 13:9 Thou shalt not covet Romans 7:7 is the Lord there yes or no yes in the New Testament yes or no yes does it stand absolutely Galatians

28:52 3:19 wherefore then serveth the law it was added because of transgression till the seed should come to whom the promise Was Made Who was the seed we discussed that just now Jesus and there was a law that was added because of transgression now think ladies and gentlemen think transgression requires that there be a law right so let's read this little bit differently let's say there was a law added because of another law that was transgressed is that what it says all right which law was transgressed the 10 commandments which law was added because of the transgression cere ceremoni the

29:40 ceremonial law aha aha so the solution to the problem was added because of the problem that was created by the transgression of the law simple as that so here we had it from the beginning this one over here his name was Cain he said I will not obey I will bring the works of my own hands there are so many people that say that you know that unbelievable and Abel said the Lord says bring a lamb because the lamb stands for the Messiah who will come who will die in my stead and shed his blood and I trust in the merits of the blood of the Lamb he was saved by grace or by

30:26 works so Grace did exist in the Old Testament yes or no so how were you saved in the Old Testament by keeping the law or by Grace by okay so has anything changed no nope I am the Lord I change not says the Lord here is the sanctuary that had to be built according to precise specifications there was a white wall of white linen all around it there was one opening which was called the gate when you came in there was an altar of burnt offering if you went further there was a labor if you went into the first chamber the first Tabernacle there was an Candlestick on the other side there was a table of showbread in the middle there was an

31:12 altar of incense and if you went into the second chamber behind that there were the Ten Commandments in the ark with a covering cherubs that's what it was let's have a look at this Exodus Exodus 258 and let them make me a sanctuary that I may dwell among them it was a symbol of Christ dwelling amongst his people as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the Tabernacle foree says he that thou make all things according to the pattern showed thee on the mount Hebrews 8:5 everything according to the pattern not one chot not one TI don't move

31:57 anything it must be exact God is very exact so he told him exactly how to build it every single detail and every single detail is important and nobody bothers to read it oh that was Old Testament but the Old Testament and what happened was written for our admonition says Paul so we better make sure we look at it well all these pillars the Lord says this is a copy of a t Tabernacle a temple in heaven and he says those that overcome I will make a pillar in my house so the pillar stands for the

32:43 redeemed interesting that there was money to be paid for the construction and everyone had to pay a Redemption price and it was the same for poor and for rich it was if I remember correctly a quarter of a shekele of silver and everyone had to pay it and Jesus sent his disciple to fetch the Redemption money out of the fish of the mouth do you remember that and there was enough to pay for two of them Jesus is even willing to pay the Redemption money for you but that was the symbol the socket everybody has to take has to pay has to give up

33:31 something and here was an outer gate one gate and this gate had a covering over here which had four colors in it there was purple in it there was red in it there was blue in it and there was white in it and then there was fine gold thread purple is the color of royalty red is the color of sacrifice blue is the color of obedience and white is the color of righteousness those are the aspects of Christ and by the way if you want to have purple you have to mix red and blue so sacrifice and obedience makes for royalty wow it is

34:19 beautiful Jesus says I am the door and no but he comes to the father except by me and if you don't enter through this door he says you have no part of him so Jesus is the door this gate there was only one and then there is another one over there this one was called the gate that one was called the door and it had the same material and then there was another one on the inside which had the same material the same colors so Christ is identified with the gate and with the door and the veil between the first and the second Chambers and when you came in

35:05 over here the first thing you were confronted with was the altar of burnt offering what happened there sacrifice a sacrifice and who does that sacrifice represent CHR represents Christ so the white linen around it is this is the righteousness of Christ when you enter in through the gate in other words you accept salvation in Jesus Christ you enter in through the gates and you are surrounded by the righteousness of Christ beautiful it's called justification and you stand before the altar of burnt offering and there is a lamb and you witness the sacrifice of the Son of God in type to take away your

35:51 sins Hebrews 9:24 says for Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands which are the figures of the true but into heaven itself now to appear in the presence of God for us so the Earthly Sanctuary served just as a copy of a Heavenly Sanctuary where Christ is our high priest Hebrews 9:8 says the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest while as the first Tabernacle was yet standing Christ's Ministry in the Heavenly could only begin once the Earthly was completed how do we know that because in the Earthly Tabernacle the priest was not allowed to enter the first chamber until the sacrifice had

36:38 been made there was a lamb and then there was a ram of consecration the lamb represents Christ at the beginning of his ministry the ram represents Christ at the end of his ministry and if that Ram of consecration was sacrificed the priest was permitted to go into the holy holy place and the Bible tells us that Christ entered not with the with the blood of sheep and goats but with his own precious blood so this served as a guarantee of the coming Messiah beautiful symbolism who serve as an example and a shadow of the Heavenly things as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the Tabernacle it's a copy of the Heavenly he Hebrews 8

37:25 verse 5 so the Tabernacle pitched in the midst of the people represented the ministry of Jesus Christ now don't you think it's important that we understand the ministry of Christ yes or no yes I think so Jesus in the midst of his people John 1:14 so let's study the ministry because if we study it then we will be able to discern many a deception in the world out there many people end their gospel once they've come through the gate oops there they are they're inside I'm covered by the righteousness of Christ life goes on as before nothing has changed no no no there's more to the ministry you first face that first

38:12 Tabernacle let's look at the furniture once again you come in then there was the altar of burnt offering then there was the labor and then you went into the first chamber over there and in the first chamber on the one side there was the Candlestick then there was the altar of incense over there then there was the table of showbread and there was the Candlestick the seven Candlestick and on the inside there was this Ark of the Covenant so the court the outer Court represents the Earth the gate the door the veil represent the three dimensions of Christ's Ministry three dimensions not just one there are four pillars for

38:57 the veil four coverings four colors four ingredients in the showbread four is the number of the earth NorthEast Southwest the whole earth is covered by this Redemption 48 boards 60 pillars multip putes of 144,000 the sockets were made of silver as I said made from the Redemption money for other Foundation can no man lay and that is laid with is Christ Jesus 1 Corinthians 3:11 he is the foundation of every single pillar five bars holding the structure together five factors holding the body in unity of the spirit remember there is one body one Spirit one Lord One Faith one baptism one God and Father of all five factors holding the sanctu together now

39:44 let's get to the sacrifice the lamb was brought and The Sinner was faced with the lamb what did he have to do he had to place his hands on top of the Lamb and then the lamb was killed and the fat was removed and burnt fat is a symbol of sin the burning of fat is the purging of sin Leviticus 3:3 Psalms 37:20 so that fat which sits around the inner parts surrounding the very internal organs becomes a symbol of sin which is burnt up in Christ beautiful symbolism the lamb was attached to the horns of the altar the lamb Christ is bound to the sacrifice he becomes your

40:31 sacrifice so the lamb attached by a cord to the horns of the Altar and you had to sacrifice the lamb you had to see that your part in it was you put the lamb to death the high priest catches the blood the high priest catches the blood and in a sense the blood of the Lamb purges you of your sin and the high priest himself is a symbol of Christ of course in this system the lamb and the high priest are really one but of course the lamb is dead after the process so the high priest represents Christ who is in a sense the Risen Savior Leviticus 42731 and if anyone sin

41:19 through ignorance while he doeth something against any of The Commandments of the Lord then he shall bring his offering and he shall lay hands upon the head of the sin offering and slay the sin offering we are responsible for the death of Christ and the priest shall make atonement of him Christ makes atonement for us the priest becomes a type and it shall be forgiven him there's the plan how to get rid of sin so you laid your hands on top of this slam let's read what the Jewish encyclopedia says about this it says the the laying of hands upon the victim's head is an ordinary right by which the substitution and transfer of sins are affected in every sacrifice there is the

42:06 idea of substitution the victim takes the place of the human sinner I have a question for you was the Gospel preached to them yes or no yes it was not preached to them like it's preached to us but it was preached to them in type if they had studied the ceremony they would have seen the ministry of of Christ but they started using the ceremony as a ritual and when you ritualize something you lose the essence so the high priest the lamb the blood everything points to Jesus Christ who is the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world John 1 verse 29

42:53 Behold Him look at him there's the typology it's fascinating that Abraham was to sacrifice Isaac and he was to do it on Mount Moriah Mount Moriah is the very Mount where the temple is built was built and the temple stood for the sanctuary the ministry of Christ when they quarried Mount Moriah Solomon had the Quarry made in Mount Mariah and they dug out the blocks of stone and that created a valley between two hills and the one Hill was called golata fascinating that mount Mariah was one Hill and that Jesus Christ died on

43:39 Mount Mariah wow he died on the same Mount symbolizing the death of the Lamb my little children these things I write unto you that you sin not and if any man sin we have an advocate with the father Jesus Christ the righteous so is Christ dead now that he died or is he resurrected and is an advocate for us advate so is Christ's work finished at the cross or is he doing still something still he's still doing something oh yes the price for sin has been paid in the fall but the work of Christ is not finished otherwise it should have come to an end

44:25 then Christ is the advocate we can still find Salvation in him he was wounded for our transgression he was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon him and with him his stripes we are healed if we confess our sins he's faithful and just to forgive us our sins so must we confess yes or no absolutely and to cleanse us from all unrighteous do you know that there are preachers who say that there is nothing more wicked than we can do than to talk about about the sinful nature of man I have news for you if we don't talk about Sin then we don't need a solution you might as well go without Christ right or wrong okay so all of these symbols stood for

45:11 the high priest now here's the labor the labor came after the sacrifice Many religious systems come in they want to accept the righteousness of Christ they come into the door they accept the vicarious sacrifice of the Cross and then they say thanks a lot now I'm saved but there's a washing to be done yes or no yes a cleansing of rebirth a change must take place in the character something must happen so the labor represents the washing by water there it was and you washed at the labor the priest did it as a symbol for there was a tabernacle made the first wherein was the Candlestick and then there was the first chamber and the table and the

45:58 sobre which was called the sanctuary and the high priest went into that daily not without blood now this is what happened imagine this The Sinner brings the lamb the lamb is slaughtered and the entrails are burnt and the carcass is eventually burnt without the city outside the city and that symbolizes that Christ would die outside that he would be killed and eliminated there outside the city then the high priest would cook a portion a tiny ceremonial portion and the writings tell us that it was about the size of a pee he would eat it and in type that confessed sins to

46:44 the lamb were transferred to the high priest now he in type carries your sin like Christ Bears our sins now the high priest did a sacrifice for himself plus all all the confessed sins that he had taken upon himself and he took that blood and he brought it into the sanctuary daily and he put it on the horns of the altar so in type our sins have been removed and placed on record in the sanctuary and he keeps the light burning the light stands for Jesus Christ the light of the world this is a depiction of the Ark of Titus where he took the Furnishings away after the destruction of Jerusalem and They Carried these things away where they are

47:31 today one wonders Jesus says John 8:12 I am the light of the world he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of Life oil that was in the lamp is a symbol of the holy spirit that would disseminate the life so through the Holy Spirit and the smoke of the incense the incense that was burnt on the altar of incense which came from the prayers of the Saints ascended up before God out of the Angel's hands everything dealt with Jesus so the priest burnt this incense and this represents our prayers going up to God being made acceptable through Jesus Christ and then there was this blood that was transferred transferring

48:18 the record of sin to the sanctuary I am the living bread which comes down from heaven If any man eat of this bread he shall live forever and the bread that I will give is in my flesh which I shall give for the light of the world that was the table of showbread bread without leaving no sin now in other words you came in you were covered by the righteousness of Christ you accept the sacrifice of sacrifice of Christ you must be washed by rebirth and then what must you do partake of the light through the holy Holy Spirit Jesus is the light of the world my word Thy word is a what unto my feet a lamp unto

49:03 my feet and a light unto my path and if you do not partake of the body of Christ if you do not make Christ part of you you have no part in him and you speak to God through Christ so Christ becomes your personal friend you eat sleep and drink and him that's called sanctification and the Bible says without sanctification you will not see God it's not enough to say I'm Justified but I don't want any of the rest of it you got to take the whole package or nothing that's what it's all about so the table of showbread represents Christ for his people there are 12 show breads

49:50 12 tribes of Israel 12 Apostles the numbers are sign significant the ingredients of the incense represents all mankind Hebrews 9:3 and after the second Veil The Tabernacle which is called the holiest of all now there we go to the most holy now we've been talking a lot and maybe you're smoking a little bit up here already so shake your heads and go wake up you all awake great cuz now we're going to do something really exciting we're going to look at that second Tabernacle they say my hair's all untidy who cares anyway the first Tabernacle represents Your

50:36 Daily Commitment to Christ partaking of the word partaking of the life leaving living a life in Christ but it also contains the record of all confessed sins is that understood by everyone because the blood Wasing transferred to the horns of the altar is that right so it contains the records of all the sins let me tell you some good news blessed are you if the record of your sin is transferred and recorded in the sanctuary blessed are you it's not bad news it's good news because those sins that are recorded there are forgiven sins did you know that all the sins that

51:24 you have confessed over the lamb and that have been transferred to the high priest and have been recorded in the heavens are your confessed sins so one day when the record of Heaven is to be purged and cleansed from sin they will open the books and they will say here is the record of Walter fight's sin and I will read a list so long WR it was stretch 50,000 times around the globe hopefully and the devil will come and he will be the accuser of the Brethren right or wrong and he will say I know

52:10 that I made that guy do this and they look up the record and they say yep here it is it says pardon anything else but I know that he did that this check it out oh yep here it is it says pardon and if he can mention one that's not on the list you're in trouble so get your sins into the sanctuary confess and forsake and you will be safe the judgment is good news if your sins are recorded in the sanctuary now

52:56 in heaven one day I have good news for you Christ's Redemption is so complete that you will stand before God not as forgiven Sinners but as individuals that are as though they have never sinned how far will God remove your sins from you as far as the e East is from the West that's infinitely far there's no way they'll ever get back to you you will stand before God as though you have never sinned you will have a perfect right to Heaven one day if your record of sin is

53:41 recorded over there it's the most beautiful Doctrine in the world the most beautiful Doctrine in the world there's nothing to fear if you have confessed your sins and forsaken them remember Mary Magdalene do you remember her when she was accused Jesus said to her I don't condemn you either is that right that's Grace that's called Grace and then he says go and sin no more what's that putting her under law so law and Grace go together so now the record of sin is there and now once a year the record of sin was cleansed and for that purpose the priest had to go into the most holy what an ominous

54:29 situation he had little bells around him pomeg gamits and bells pomegranates and bells pomegranates and bells and the bells would ring and they used to tie a string to his leg because if he went into the presence of a holy God with sin he would die instantly and they would pull him out from under the the veil dead that's how serious it was so it was a serious situation the priest would make full confession of his sins and make sure his sins were all purged and then he went into the presence of a holy God he entered into the most holy now there was the Ten Commandments the tablets of stone and the two angels and

55:14 the shikina glory would appear above the Ten Commandments which contain the law of God condemning The Sinner to death if he's a transgressor was The Mercy Seat and The Mercy Seat was of pure gold and it represents the mercy of Christ shielding you from the condemnation of the law fascinating story you know that Mercy sheet was one and a half cubits High and the great on which the sacrifice was burnt outside on the altar was 1 and a half cubits High little detail like that just boggles the mine in other words God's justice is as high

56:00 as his Mercy wow anyway here he would go in and he would sprinkle special blood at the veil and in front of the Ark it contained of course the Ten Commandments great peace have they which love thy law and nothing shall offend them Psalms 11965 look at the furnisher furnisher in there was the altar of burnt offerings the labor and then on either side the table of showbread and the candlesticks then the altar of incense and then the ark it was in the shape of a cross the cross and its shadow beautiful now when these things were thus ordained the priest went always into the first

56:46 Tabernacle accomplishing the service of God that represented sanctification through your life Hebrews 9: 6 we have a high priest who passed into the heavens Jesus Son Christ the son of God Hebrews 4:14 we have that privilege today we have such a high priest who is set on the right hand of the Throne of majesty a minister of the sanctuary and of the true s Tabernacle which the Lord pitched and not man hello is there a tabernacle which God pitched yes or no yes well either the scriptures are there to admonish us and to give us the truth or they are not it's says there is one so I believe there is one cuz that's what it says but Christ being come a high priest

57:32 by his own blood he entered once into the holy Place having ordained Eternal Redemption for us Hebrews 9 1112 Christ is that high priest the veil of the temple was rent in Twain from top to bottom the Earthly sacrifice came to an end the ceremonial law was done away with why because it was fulfilled in Christ if I now take a lamb and I sacrifice it today for my sins what am I saying I've said this before Jesus that Jesus's sacrifice was not good enough now the Jews want to build a new Temple and Institute the sacrificial system yes or no I want to tell you that's blasphemy

58:17 yes and their sins and iniquities will remember no more now where remission of these is there is no more offering for sin having therefore Brethren boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus by a New and Living Way we have a new covenant with Christ it's the same as the old but it's been fulfilled in Christ and I now look to Jesus I don't have to look at lambs and goats I look at Jesus so the temple really has been done away with and should remain done away with time for a new Temple they say so I don't think so for Christ has not entered into the holies made with hands which are a

59:04 figure of the true but into heaven itself why build an Earthly one if there's a Heavenly one yes or no doesn't make much sense all right so let's have a look at this interesting service so Christ was once offered to Bear the sins of many and he shall appear a second time without sin unto salvation wherefore he's able to save to the uttermost those that come unto him everything the high priest wore all the clothing stood for Christ the inner garment the white one the righteousness of Christ the outer one then the ephod all these symbols the colors tying him to the door and the gate and the veil every single Stone the 12 Stones The 12 Tribes of Israel

59:49 everything refers to the Tabernacle even the roof of the the Tabernacle outside was an outer covering which was made of badger skins representing Christ's humanity and then you have the colors that are associated with the door so the badger skin Christ veiled his divinity with Humanity Christ the Savior skins of rams died red Christ the sacrifice covering of woven goats hair the righteousness of Christ and the inner Royal covering blue Scarlet purple Christ the worthy King Christ the exalt savior isn't it fascinating wow now there were seven annual Jewish feasts also associated with the service

1:00:35 this was all written in the law of Moses there was a type and there was an antitype there was the Passover which was the sacrifice of the Lamb it represented the crucifixion notice that it was on Nissan 14 then there was the Feast of unle bread the very next day Nissan 15 that's Christ the body of Christ Christ in the grave and then you had the Feast of first fruits which is Nan 16 so 14 15 16 the three days the Friday the Saturday Sunday of the crucifixion it's the resurrection so even in their annual feasts they were celebrating the work of Christ does that asound you wow and then you had the Feast of Weeks which was Sian 6 there was 50 days

1:01:24 thereafter that was Pentecost it celebrated the giving of the law the tools of righteousness how to be right in terms of your obedience Grace comes from God so now they were fully equipped at the same time they were sent out to preach Christ the solution to the sin problem the law defines the sin problem Christ is the solution to the sin problem so the cost of of redemption so five Trumpets the Feast of trumpets tishy was the heralding of judgment an advent movement the day of atonement the pre-advent Judgment TI 10 and then the Feast of Tabernacles going home now

1:02:11 let's have a look at one of these the day of atonement the Harvest of redemption would come thereafter so the annual cleansing of the Earthly Sanctuary this is great stuff the day of judgment that's what it stood for so they blew the trumpets and they brought two goats and the one was called the Lord's goat and the other one was Azazel it was the scapegoat but Azazel means the evil one Lucifer so they cast lots and the scapegoat was led into the the desert and was not sacrificed he did not die he

1:02:59 was just LED away but the Lord's goat was sacrificed so the blowing of the trumpet is a symbol of judgment Revelation 1467 Joel 21 and the Lord's goat was sacrificed and the priest entered with this blood into the most holy remember the bowels and the rope tied to his feet and Hebrew says into the second chamber that's the most holy went the high priest alone once every year not without blood Leviticus 16:19 he shall sprinkle the blood seven times and cleanse it so this cleansed the sanctuary and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel remember all the recorded sins were

1:03:45 there and all of these had to now been cleansed from the sanctuary and he shall make atonement for the holy place that's the first Tabernacle because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel and because of their transgressions in all their sins and so shall he do for the Tabernacle of the congregation that remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness so the whole thing was to be cleansed from the record of sin unbelievable so the high priest took in this ceremony all the sins that had been confessed for that entire year upon himself and he came out and he placed his hands on the scapegoat and he pushed his hands on it

1:04:33 and transferred the record of sin who made you sin who made you sin Satan made you sin so if Satan made you sin This Record is transferred onto the scapegoat Azazel which stands for Lucifer and he will one one day pay the price for the forgiven sins if you have not confessed your sins who pays for those you do wow now he doesn't become the sin Bearer because the Bible says without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins he's led into the desert for on that day shall the priest make atonement for you to cleanse you that you may be clean

1:05:20 from all your sins before the Lord Leviticus 6 30 so in the day of judgment you will stand before God with how many sins on you none none isn't that astounding that is phenomenal Jesus's cleansing is total you stand before God as though you have never sinned Redemption is complete come now let us reason together says the Lord though your sins be like schol they shall be as white as snow they are red as Crimson they shall be like wool if we confess our sins it's very important he is faithful and just to

1:06:05 forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from how much unrighteousness all of it 1 John 1:9 there are preachers who preach the opposite of this who say there is no greater damage that can be done than to preach of the Lost sin ful condition of man we have to acknowledge and confess our sins if we want to be part of Salvation so it was a time of final confession a time of cleansing a time of judgment and those who did not partake were cut off from the people that's the sanctuary message cleansing of the sanctuary and he said unto me unto 2,300 days then

1:06:52 shall the sanctuary be cleansed Daniel 8:14 there will come a time when Christ will enter the second chamber and will start cleansing the sanctuary and we'll deal with this 2,300 year prophecy at another stage un 2,300 days then shall the sanctuary be cleansed so this judgment will take place the Bible says I beheld till Thrones were cast down the Ancient of Days did sit the Judgment was set and the books were opened and behold one like the son of man came to the Ancient of Days and they brought him near before him he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world acts 17:31 we

1:07:38 better take note of judgment it's coming 2 Corinthians 5:10 for we must who all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ that everyone may receive the things done in his body according to that he has done whether it be good or bad so where would you like your sins to be on your head or recorded in the sanctuary in sanctuary hey get them recorded the Lord will judge his people there's the list and if that list is as long as you can imagine then goody for you but if that list is one too short you could be in trouble so examine

1:08:24 yourselves whether you be in the Lord and behold I come quickly and my reward is with me to give every man according to his work shall be Revelation 22:12 the coming of the Lord will reveal these things I believe that we have nothing to fear that 2,300 days has a specific time it starts 457 if you add 2,300 comes to 1844 it's an interesting time it's a very interesting time it's the time when the Communist Manifesto was written it was a time when the evolution Theory went out into the world precisely 1844 it was a time when there was a big clash between the Messiah and

1:09:10 the non- Messiah the music of the world was written about the creation wonderful time fear God and give glory to him for the hour of his judgment has come what is the standard of judgment going to be that's asked the Bible so speak and so do as they that shall be judged by the law of Liberty the law is going to be the standard of judgment James 2:12 let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter ecclesiast 12 13 and 14 fear God and keep his Commandments for this is the whole duty of man for God shall bring every work into judgment every secret thing whether it be good or whether it be evil do we hear much preaching about this in

1:09:56 the world today no oh no oh no if you love me says Jesus keep my Commandments John 14:15 beloved if our heart condemn us not then have we confidence towards God and whatsoever we ask we receive of him because we keep his Commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight John 32122 ask forgiveness God will place you under grace and your record of sin will be recorded in the sanctuary go in sin no more eat the bread of life drink in the Water The Living Water take the light of the world live eat and drink your religion there's

1:10:43 no good having a halfway religion and then when Christ returns you will be cleansed of all your unrighteousness all of it none of it will be upon your head not one stain and the righteousness of Christ will cover you again if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness 1 John 1:9 repent therefore and be converted that your sins may be blotted out this is a gospel we never hear anymore but this is the truth ladies and gentlemen this is the truth believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved but

1:11:30 believing faith without works without doing is useless he that is unjust let him be unjust still and he which is filthy let him be filthy still and he that is righteous let him be righteous still and he that is Holy let him be holy still Revelation 22:11 very shortly that decree will go out and probation will end and if you on the filthy side it's too late you remain filthy if you're on the righteous side you remain righteous and very soon the Lord will come the Lord is long suffering towards us not willing that any should perish that all should come to repentance 2 Peter 3:9 I sometimes

1:12:16 wonder when I look at the world Lord why haven't you come yet some people say the Lord will have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah if he doesn't come quickly because things are bad but I know the character of my God and he is longsuffering and here is the patience of the Saints they that keep the Commandments and the faith in Jesus Jesus is coming soon folks amen he's coming soon with the clouds of heaven and it's my prayer that every single one of us will have a right understanding what it means means to serve him it doesn't just mean to serve him and sing Hallelujah it means accepting him as my

1:13:04 personal Savior and my king and a king is one who is to be obeyed not because he wants to Lord it over me no the Lord Jesus demonstrated that he came to wash feet didn't he yes he didn't come to Lord it over us but because it is good for us because it is right for us he says I will write my laws into their hearts that'll be the New Covenant and when the laws in the heart you will want to do what is right you will want to do what is right I'll tell you your relationships will improve your love for each other will improve your whole mindset will improve if we come back into obedience and an obedience relationship

1:13:50 with God and there's nothing to fear of the judgment if you have confessed your sins nothing and the longer the list of sins as I have said that is recorded in in the heavens the better because it means they're all there and forsake them and give them up that's my prayer for you tomorrow we start looking at the other side of the coin I have now done what I possibly can to show you what the biblical criteria for salvation and a relationship with Christ what they entail tomorrow we will look at the counterfeit we will identify the Antichrist by name and I know that some might get hurt but if you are angry with me be angry with me but not with a

1:14:37 word you can throw a tomato at me but come back and eat more of the word and let's see if we can get through this together thank you for coming [Music] [Music] [Music]

1:15:22 a [Music] oh [Music] [Music]
