The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!īy that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved. Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. And it started at the door or threshold of the Tabernacle, with a sacrifice. The arrow on the right in the diagram indicates where they would begin. These three areas consisted of the Outer Court, Holy Place, and Holy of Holies. Knowing this might be useful in understanding the position and purpose of the menorah.Īs you can see in the above diagram, there were three sections to this structure that the priest would have to pass through to get to the Presence of God at the Ark of the Covenant. ![]() It might first be essential to look at the structure itself and the arrangement of particular items. (Matthew 6:31-34, NKJV) But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.By Adik86 (Own work), via Wikimedia Comm Tabernacle Structure Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. Perhaps the real reason we rarely receive the blessings the Lord has promised for those who seek Him, is the fact that we would rather seek the blessings than the provider of those blessings: Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For after all these things the Gentiles seek. They live in ignorance and poverty by their own design.

When we look at the book of Revelations, we find that She is represented by the church at Sardis (the dead church 3:1-6), the fourth seal which is also the fourth horseman of the apocalypse (death 6:7,8), the first trumpet (vegetation struck 8:7), the second blessing of the Book of Revelation (those who die will rest 14:13), and the third bowl of wrath (rivers and springs turn to blood 16:4). She is represented by the breath of life (Genesis 2:7), Her rainbow color is green (the color of life), She is responsible for the first plague on Egypt (turning the river to blood ? Exodus 7:19-25), the seventh of the ten commandments (adultery), and is represented by the last of the seven commanded annual feasts: the Feast of Tabernacles (Deuteronomy 16:13-17). On the third day, which we will call Tuesday by tradition, the Lord created the oceans, dry land, and plant life, hence the Spirit of Life acted in creation. ![]() The very first revelation of the Seven Spirits, not including the many repetitions of words and names of God, is the seven days of creation. ![]()
