Jesus is the fulfillment of the Day of Atonement, the Mercy Seat

Concerning the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant and a foreshadowing of Messiah’s atonement,
Leviticus 16,
11 “Aaron shall bring the bull for his own sin offering to make atonement for himself and his household, and he is to slaughter the bull for his own sin offering. 14 He is to take some of the bull’s blood and with his finger sprinkle it on the front of the atonement cover; then he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the atonement cover.15 “He shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and take its blood behind the curtain and do with it as he did with the bull’s blood: He shall sprinkle it on the atonement cover and in front of it. 16 In this way he will make atonement for the Most Holy Place because of the uncleanness and rebellion of the Israelites, whatever their sins have been.”

The fulfillment of all the Mercy Seat and Day of Atonement foreshadowed,

11 But Mary was standing outside the tomb, weeping; so as she wept, she stooped to look into the tomb; 12 and she *saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been lying. 13 And they *said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She *said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they put Him.” (Gospel of John, Chapter 20)

Overview,
Mary observed the blood of Messiah staining the stone upon which His body has been laid along with the two-angels, one sitting at the feet…one at the head of the actual mercy seat foreshadowed by the Ark of the Covenant. Jesus, alone, is our atonement for the sin of the whole World (1 John 2:2).

The Ark of the Covenant foreshadowed Messiah Jesus,

The Ark’s wood represented Messiah’s humanity.The Ark’s gold represented Messiah’s deity.

The Mercy Seat represented Messiah’s atoning blood sacrifice.

The pot of manna within the Ark represented that Messiah would be Bread of Life (John 6:35).

Aaron’s rod within the Ark that was a dead-stick but budded to life represented the death and resurrection of Messiah.

The Tablets of Stone, the Commandments, within the Ark represented that the Messiah would be the fulfillment of God’s Law and that God’s Law representing God’s holiness and righteousness would be integral within Messiah as the Son of God and the Son of man.

A Woman’s desire to RULE over her Husband, why?

A Woman’s Innate DESIRE to control her husband. It’s Genesis!

The woman is under the curse of Eden and it is her innate desire is to “rule” over her husband but this desire is more often than not thwarted by testosterone creating stress and dissension between the male and female. It’s genetics, it’s in her genes, resulting from the disobedience of the first husband and wife, our first dad and mom.

Elohim commanded,

16 To the woman He said,“I will greatly multiply Your pain in childbirth, In pain you shall deliver children; Yet your desire will be for your husband, And he shall rule over you.” Genesis 3:16 (NASB)

Do sinful people die after the resurrection?

Do sinful people die after the resurrection?

Christian response,

We’re all sinners (Romans 3:23) in need of forgiveness by faith in Jesus as our Lord. Those who trust in Jesus receive the righteousness, the perfection, the sinlessness, of Jesus Christ imputed into their lives and are declared “not guilty” by the Father (Romans 10:9-10; John 3:16; 2 Corinthians 5:21). These will live with God eternally before and subsequent the resurrection of the righteous (2 Corinthians 5:8; John 11:25; John 5:29; John 11:25).

Those who reject Jesus Christ as Lord – Messiah and reject His atonement for sin, these will “die in their sin” (John 8:24) and they will not be permitted to enter the Kingdom of God where nothing impure is permitted (Revelation 21:27); therefore, ultimately, subsequent to the resurrection of the condemned (John 5:29) and the Judgment of the Condemned (Revelation 20:11-15), those who have rejected the atonement for sin offered ONLY by faith in Jesus as Lord, these will die the “second death” in Hell and cease all existence and remembrance throughout eternity (Revelation 21:8).

Jewish Law Keeper idolizes Torah…is he correct?

Jewish “Law Keeper” stated:

Know torah

Know god

Know peace

No torah

No god

No peace

Is he correct?

Christian response,

Torah provides ZERO atonement for your sin as it only defines your culpability before God but provides no path to covenant relationship (Romans 3:20).Torah is a “curse” upon the one seeking to establish covenant relationship with God through obedience to it as the Torah mandates perfection in word, thought, deed (James 2:10; Galatians 3:10; Deuteronomy 27:26) yet mankind is sinful by nature (Romans 3:23) and under the condemnation of sin and death; therefore, the Torah provides no path to an eternal covenant with God (Romans 8; Romans 3:20).

Torah – a reiteration/codification of moral law,

Torah’s moral law is nothing new or novel as the moral law of conscience (Romans 2:15) has been extant subsequent to the creation of the angels as moral law/conscience are the arbiter of free will; free will being essential for covenant relationship with God.

The moral law is essential as it…

1) acts as a bulwark against unrestrained narcissism thereby ensuring survivability of human kind from self-destruction.

2) acts as a vessel through which God’s judgment for sin could manifest with equity and due process. Note that the moral law was extant throughout the Adamic and Noahic generations as God judged the World in accordance with the moral law and destroyed same by water save eight.

3) acts as an arbiter of free will. It is the moral law and the conscience that are the arbiter of free will.

Concerning necessary blood atonement,

11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood by reason of the life that makes atonement.’ Leviticus 17:11 (NASB)

The only atonement for the sin of mankind is the innocent shed blood of Yeshua-Jesus sprinkled upon the sands of Golgotha outside of Jerusalem, Israel some 2000-years ago as first prophesied in Genesis 3:21. The WRATH of God concerning the sin of mankind will NOT be satiated other than by one’s FAITH in what Yeshua-Jesus has done for you and me upon a Roman Cross of suffering. Obedience to a Law, tradition, custom, ordinance, will not initiate covenant relationship with God the Father (Romans 3:20; Ephesians 1:13-14).

Purpose of Torah,

The Law, the Torah, is simply our Schoolmaster to lead us to Messiah Jesus so that we can find eternal covenant relationship with the Father by faith. Faith in Yeshua-Jesus as our Lord who died to pay our sin-debt is the only Way to PEACE with God (John 14:6).

America’s Death – Darwin’s Demonic Victory…

Engel v. Vitale (1962), undergirded by rabid atheist Madalyn Murray O’hair, was the culmination of radical progressive John Dewey’s work (1900) as the “father of modern education.” One year later, 1963, the progressive socialist elites in America were instrumental in infusing Darwinian Evolution into the biological sciences in high schools and universities around the United States. In conjunction, progressive socialist teachers and professors introduced Marxism-Leninism as alternatives to the “evils” of capitalism via the humanities.

Darwin’s idiocy, which makes a mockery of God and the Genesis creation narrative, has influenced several generations of American youth to doubt God’s reality and His authority over all life as Darwin’s insanity dismantles the foundation for our faith in God as the Genesis narrative undergirds all of Scripture and the veracity and reliability of same. Never, in the history of mankind, has there been a more influential progenitor of atheism, nihilism, than Darwin’s demonic theory of “evolution.”

Darwin in the biological sciences and Marx in the humanities formed a demonically powerful catalyst transforming the hearts and minds of at least three-generations of American youth into nihilistic, atheistic, communists, who are now entering the voting booths in droves across America as Stalin’s “useful idiots” and these brainwashed youth are methodically, incrementally, destroying America’s Constitutional Republic founded solely upon and relying exclusively upon faith in Jesus Christ and a redeemed heart seeking obedience through sanctification by the Holy Spirit; this, in combination with the work of the Soviet GRU/KGB in American media and Universities subsequent to WW2, America is rotting from within via immorality and communism while the masses are comfortably numb, naive, complacent.

Why do Christians call themselves Gentiles if the New Covenant is for Israel?

Question was asked: “Why do Christians call themselves Gentiles if the New Covenant was designated for Israel only?”

Christian response,

The New Covenant i.e. the Gospel of Jesus Christ was supposed to be the fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham in Genesis 12:3,

And I will bless those who bless you,And the one who curses you I will curse.And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed.”’

Subsequent to destroying all of humanity save eight, God set apart a people group after His own Name who were provided a codification of the moral law combined with civil-ceremonial-dietary edicts instructing them in holiness as God is Holy (Exodus 19:6 – Deuteronomy 14:2). God established Covenant[s] with these people through the Patriarchy of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, through whom God introduced His Messiah to the World. God’s eschatological Plan and will for the children of Jacob (Israel) was that they would be a blessing to every family of the Earth as these people would proselytize every Nation in the Gospel of Yeshua through the New Covenant established in Yeshua’s blood atonement (Matthew 26:28). The ENTIRE focus of the Torah, the prophets, was preparation for Israel’s role in the Gospel of the New Covenant (Galatians 3:24-26). Yeshua’s ministry was focused on the “lost sheep of Israel” and reunification of man and God by grace through faith (Matthew 15:24).

Unfortunately, Jacob’s children broke God’s covenants; Jacob’s children rejected the Gospel message; Jacob’s children rejected the Messenger, Yeshua, the Messiah of not only Israel but of the whole World (John 3:17; 1 John 2:2); Jacob’s children falsely accused their Messiah of blasphemy; Jacob’s children conspired with Rome to savagely beat and bloody their Messiah and ultimately murder Him upon a tree; Jacob’s children demanded freedom for a convicted murderer while demanding that their Messiah’s blood be upon them and their children (Matthew 27:25).

For this reason, the New Covenant i.e. the Gospel of Yeshua, was taken from Israel’s children and given to the Gentiles (Romans 11:25) and will remain in custody of the Gentiles until their numbers (Gentiles) entering the Kingdom by faith are fulfilled. Meanwhile, Israel has been blinded by the veil of unbelief (2 Corinthians 3:15); Israel’s heart has been hardened (Romans 9-11) and as a result, only a remnant of Israel’s children will escape the “second death” in Perdition and these will primarily be that generation which sees Messiah’s second-advent at the end of the Tribulation dispensation initiating the Millennial Reign of Yeshua (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27).

Why is America dying in Communist Tyranny?

Why is America dying in Communist tyranny?

America’s Constitutional Republic is failing because its people have turned their back on our God, the Lord Jesus Christ. America’s Constitution and its limited form of government wholly depends upon the majority having been redeemed by faith in Jesus Christ and lives led in sanctification by the Holy Spirit; otherwise, man’s sin-nature requires intrusive, overbearing governmental intervention to maintain peace and safety; we, the American people, have fallen from our founding and the intent of our Founders; therefore, we’re reaping what we have sown as exemplified by the government tyranny incrementally overtaking the American people. God will not be mocked and our Constitution’s mandates necessitating a reformed heart through faith in Jesus as our Lord cannot be neglected if we are to survive as a free people.

Understanding Paul mandates understanding Torah. Eternal ramifications of this statement?

Someone said that unless we understand the Torah we will never understand Paul. What are the eternal implications of this statement?

Christian response,

Fully and intimately understanding Paul or any Epistle or Gospel or the foreshadowing of Messiah in the Torah is only possible through the teaching and tutoring of the indwelling Holy Spirit. Scripture is spiritual, not carnal (1 Corinthians 2:14)…if the Holy Spirit is not your Teacher, you will never see God’s deeper truths.

This is why only a remnant of Israel will be saved from the “second death” in Perdition and that in the last days (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27), because the Jew and Israelite reject their Messiah and only by faith in Messiah as Lord and Mediator for our sin can the Holy Spirit take-up residence within you (Ephesians 1:13-14) and without the indwelling Spirit not only do you remain in your sins (John 8:24) but the truth of God never fully leaps from the pages of Scripture and penetrates the heart of man.

Why does God allow Satan limited dominion upon the Earth?

Why does God allow Satan limited dominion upon this Earth?

Christian response,

God allows Satan limited dominion on this Earth and uses him to separate the faithful from the unfaithful; the wheat from the chaff; the sheep from the goats. God allows Satan’s evil to reign yet restrained by the Holy Spirit (2 Thessalonians 2:7) as the faithful angels in the Kingdom observe, over the previous 6000-years, the horror of evil and disobedience that will eternally act as a bulwark against future rebellion as free will remains extant in the Kingdom.

Our entire creation within the Realm of Time is the resultant of an unfathomable spiritual war, a rebellion, having manifest in the Kingdom of God mandating a neutral repository (Earth) for that spiritual war as the destructiveness of evil/sin is not permitted in the Kingdom (Revelation 21:27). God the Father extricated this evil from the Kingdom (Luke 10:18), commissioned the Son, Jesus Christ (John 3:35; John 1; Hebrews 1; Colossians 1), to take elements from the unseen Spiritual Realm and create matter, Time, our Universe (Hebrews 11:3), and is presently dealing with His enemies within the Realm of Time partially constrained by Time and physics (Genesis 3:15).

The primary reason the Son of God, Jesus Christ, appeared within the Realm of Time was “to destroy the works of the Devil” (1 John 3:8b). Satan’s limited dominion on Earth has eternal relevance in God’s eschatological Plan for the New Jerusalem going forward as free will remains extant as free will is essential for love and relationship to exist with purity and authenticity.

“It is finished” Why did Jesus make these words His dying declaration?

Jesus died on a Roman Cross subsequent to declaring “It is finished” (John 19:30). What did Jesus finish?Jesus completed His primary mission having entered the Realm of Time to “destroy the works of the Devil” (1 John 3:8b); that is, death, Hell, the grave, for everyone who believes in Him as Lord. Second, Jesus reconciled mankind back to God, a reconciliation by faith in Messiah Jesus as Lord; a reconciliation as the Last-Adam, Jesus Christ, paid the sin-debt of the First-Adam manifesting from disobedience in Eden four-thousand-years earlier (1 Corinthians 15:45-49). Paradise lost in Genesis would be Paradise restored by God, Himself, through selfless love as first demonstrated in Genesis 3:21 i.e. the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
