I didn't have time to read all this yet. It appeared interesting, but he did appear to get some pretty basic stuff wrong. For instance there was only ONE seven-branched candlestick inside the temple, not the multiple ones he shows.......

It is easier to see if you go back to the Sanctuary or Tabernacle which God had the Israelites build to teach them about Himself, His kingdom and the process of Salvation.

A quick example, there was a coutryard, and within it the Tabernacle, consisting of Holy Place and Most Holy Place. God actually dwelt in the Most Holy Place above the Ark of the Testimony, on the 'mercy seat'. In the Ark were the, 'two tables of the Law', 'Aaron's rod that budded' and a 'Golden Pot of Manna'. This symbolized that the foundation of God's kingdom was His Law. From the 'Mercy Seat' He would forgive the sins of the penitent when the priest sprinkled the blood of the Sacrifice.

In the New Covenant, God says that we are temples of God. Thus we are God's dwelling place. God now dwells in the heart of the believer. The human being is also made up of three elements, the body, and the heart, consiting of Spirit and mind or intellect, corresponding to the Courtyard and the Tabernacle. The heart then determines all the issues of life. The mind or intellect will be led by the Spirit that dwells in the man.

The problem with man since the fall, is that he is born with a spirit foreign to God. It is an unclean spirit, or unholy Spirit. Thus the mind is filled with the evil of the world and directs the body to seek the things of the world. This is why the first thing God does after forgiving sin is to infill the believer with a new Spirit, the Holy Spirit. God now dwells in the heart of the believer to direct his mind to holy pursuits and thus the body to holy actions.

Thus is fulfilled the 'New Covenant' experience, the Law of God written in the heart of the 'New Born' child of God. Now, through the Spirit, he is to grow in righteousness, holiness and love, into the 'full stature of Chrsit Jesus'.

Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

Heb 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

This is a brief sketch of an indepth study that I am engaged in.

God Bless and keep,

Dennis

The Ark of the Covenant of course is a wonderful symbol of Christ. I think most Christians are aware of that. Are you also aware of what a wonderful picture of the Virgin Mary it is?

The ark is 'overshadowed' by the Shekinah Glory, as Mary was 'overshadowed' by the Holy Ghost. Inside the Ark is Aaron's Rod that budded with miraculous new life, inside Mary was New and Miraculously conceived life. The Law was in the Ark, just as the Fulfillment of the Law was in Mary. The pot of manna 'the bread of heaven' was inside the ark, while the "True Bread from Heaven" was inside Mary......

2Ch 4:7 And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to their form, and set [them] in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.

There was one menorah in the tabernacle, but ten in Solomon

I would suggest that the ark pictures Christ himself - the bread of God (manna), the word of God (Ten Commandments), and the appointed Priesthood of God (Aaron's staff). If the outer court of the temple represented the first heaven (sky), the holy place represented the second heaven (with pictures of stars, the moon, and the sun carved into the walls), the Holy of Holies represented the third heaven and the aboad of God. And there with Him is the mercy seat - our access into his presence.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
