PART
3 CROSS OF JESUS IN RELATION TO PRIEST OF MELCHISEDEK ORDER (chapter 1)
CHAPTER
1 PRIESTHOOD CHANGES INTO MELCHISEDEK ORDER
1Pe
2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that
we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness––by
whose stripes you were healed.
When we get baptised into His death, Rom 6: 3,
WE having DIED TO SINS—
LIVE FOR Righteousness,
we get healed through His stripes.
SCRIPTURAL
PREFACE
Look at the following scriptures-
1Co
10:2 all were baptized into Moses in the
cloud and in the sea,
Da
9:13 "As it is written in the Law
of Moses, all this disaster has come upon us; yet we have not made our prayer
before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities and understand
Your truth.
Mal
4:4 "Remember the Law of Moses,
--2 But to you who fear My name The Sun of
Righteousness shall arise With healing in His wings
We understand that when spiritual ISRAEL followed the law of Moses,
they have failed and the curse of that law had come upon ISRAEL are to PRAY
that they would TURN FROM INIQUITIES and understand THE TRUTH OF JESUS CHRIST.
We are to FEAR HIM, and do according to commands of JESUS CHRIST
--then we GET HEALED, and LIVE for Righteousness!
Ga
2:21-if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain." - we get baptised into His death, Rom 6: 3,
WHEN WE GET BAPTISED INTO JESUS CHRIST, A NEW LAW-
Heb 7:12 For the priesthood
being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
Ro
10:4 For Christ is the end of the law
for righteousness to everyone who believes.—(when you
are baptised into death of JESUS CHRIST, we receive His Righteousness –that is
the result or the end of the law for Righteousness –then we could obtain it
only through baptizm into His death, Ro 6: 3-7, 19,22)
Joh
1:17 For the law was given through
Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.—it
is through His grace that He gives us His baptizm!—He shed His blood because of
His love for us!
Ro
8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus
has made me free from the law of sin and death.
After
He frees us—we are to depart from iniquity, 2 Tim 2: 19.
So we get baptised into JESUS CHRIST’s death, and we live under the
law of SPIRIT OF LIFE, and through that law we are healed and become righteous.
Jer
20:12 But, O LORD of hosts, You who test
the righteous, And see the mind
and heart,-- Heb 12:14 Pursue peace with all people,
and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:
He tests the minds and hearts—we are to pursue PEACE, and
HOLINESS—to SEE THE LORD! To be prepared for Re 19: 7!
(iniquities
such as disfellowshipping, seperating from families, disunity, church-splits,
lack of love are major iniquities in a family!)
Under Moses’ law it was AARON’S PRIESTHOOD.
UNDER the law of Spirit of life in JESUS CHRIST, it is THE PRIESHOOD
OF MELCHISEDEK—
Under
Aaron, the ordinances were a shadow of things to come, but the REALITY is in
JESUS CHRIST!
CHAPTER 1---PRIESTHOOD CHANGES INTO
MELCHISEDEK ORDER
INTRODUCTION
The
LORD’s precious blood was shed on the cross to be benifitted by ISRAEL to make
the new covenant. (the few gentiles were first enlightened as first fruits, Isa
14: 30, to give these knowledge to ISRAEL, gentiles would be with the ISRAEL,
Ez 47: 22, and afterwards after the new covenant is made, Isa 59: 21, through
them ALL BELIEVERS would come to know JESUS CHRIST).
As High Priest of Melchisedec order, the LORD triumphed over the
priesthood of Aaron making the old covenant obsolete, and THEREFORE JESUS
CHRIST MAKES THE NEW COVENANT WITH ISRAEL through His PRIESTHOOD which will be
forever.
Unless
the LORD did all those things, the covenant promised to ancestors will not be
possible! All spiritual
requirements of the new covenant had been fulfilled by JESUS CHRIST as the High
Priest for ever!
Please
remember that CROSS involves in --baptism into His death, His sacrifice, His
offering, remission of sins, redemption, salvation, making peace,
reconciliation, atonement, Passover, new covenant, Righteousness etc.,—all
these THROUGH shedding blood, His sufferings on the cross, and His
resurrection, --
THESE
ARE ALL BENEFITS TO US THROUGH THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST, ATTAINED
THROUGH HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD! All glory and thanksgiving be to Him.

CONTINUED
FROM PART 2, CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST --
In
the end of part 2,
HEB 6: 13-19 WAS QUOTED
FROM THE MESSAGE BIBLE,
HEB 6: 14 He said, "I promise that I’ll bless
you with everything I have—bless and bless and bless!"
18 God can’t break His word. And because His word cannot change, the promise is likewise
unchangeable. We who have run for our very lives to God have every
reason to grab the promised hope with both hands and never let go.
19 It’s an unbreakable spiritual lifeline,
reaching past
all appearances right to the very presence of God
20
where Jesus, running on ahead of us, has taken up His permanent post
as High priest for us, in the order of Melchizedek.
A SPIRITUAL LIFE-LINE!
To give the promises, first the people have to be purified from
sin-
Ro
8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus
has made me free from the law of sin and death.
So when we
become new people in Christ, we shall be free of sin, and be ready to receive
the promises!
TO MAKE THESE POSSIBLE,
A NEW HIGH PRIEST IN JESUS CHRIST TEACHES ISRAEL through the gentile servants already purified,
Isa 14: 30, through His blood, through His grace, Eph 2:11-13, these are
gentiles who hear Him, Acts 28: 28, Re 11: 2-4!
NKJV
reads--
HEB
6: 20 - even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to
the order of Melchizedek.
FORERUNNER
JESUS CHRIST ENTERED THE HOLIEST OF HOLIES AS HIGH PRIEST FOREVER ACCORDING TO THE ORDER OF
MELCHISEDEK.
VS. 18-20-- we who had lived
hoping to be with JESUS CHRIST have the right TO THE PROMISE. We could enter
the Holiest--It is ONLY possible with JESUS CHRIST working as the High Priest.
We
receive all the benefits through the cross to start with, and after He comes,
we are sure to RECEIVE,-- BLESSINGS AFTER BLESSINGS!
2
LET
US EXAMINE THE WORK OF THE HIGH PRIEST OF Melchisedec ORDER--
HEB
7: 1 - For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of
the Most High God,---- first being translated "king of righteousness," and then also king of Salem, meaning "king
of peace,"
3 without father, without mother, without
genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually.
4 Now consider how great this man was, to whom
even the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils.
King of Righteousness, king of salem,
King of peace!
If JESUS CHRIST is KING, why was
this MAJESTIC position of “KING” not given to Father?
Why was He MADE LIKE A SON,
Heb 7: 3?
why did Abraham pay tithes to JESUS
CHRIST instead of paying to Father?
JOHN 10: 18
No man taketh it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to
lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I
received of My Father.
Then,
it was not Father who raised JESUS CHRIST from death, but JESUS CHRIST
HIMSELF!
3
When
He came as A SON, He had power to die, and to resurrect!
HOW
IS THAT POSSIBLE?
BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST IS BOTH
THE SON AND FATHER!
We
should prove from the word of God--
Isa
9: 6-
For
unto us a child is
born, unto us a son
is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be
called Wonderful,
Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Child was born as a SON (MADE AS A SON OF GOD,
HEB 7: 3)
HE
IS GOING TO RULE!
HE
WORKS WONDERS--AS HE GIVES WONDERFUL COUNSEL!
HE
IS MIGHTY GOD!
HE
IS FATHER EVERLASTING!—He is Father of spirits, Heb 12:9
HE
IS PRINCE OF PEACE!—He brings peace!
Jn
6: 40--everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life;
and I will raise him up at
the last day."
It is JESUS CHRIST who will raise
believers!
All
things created by Him and for Him, Col 1:16, Heb 2:10
All believers are FOR HIM!
FOR HIS GLORY!
SO
THE SON HAS ALL THE POWER OF GOD AS HE IS GOD—HE WAS MADE LIKE A SON! He had to
do CERTAIN THINGS AS A SON—let us examine--
IN
HIS MIND HE KNEW OF THE NEW COVENANT THAT HE HAS TO MAKE, therefore, He knows
how, what, why, when the new covenant is to be made—He knows BLOOD is needed
for a testament to be in force!
Heb
9:16 For where a testament is, there
must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
Heb
9:17 For a testament is of force after
men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator
liveth.
Then
JESUS CHRIST had to die--
He will die and resurrect Himself according
to His own commandment-
JOHN 10: 18 -- but I lay it down of Myself. I have
power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again.
Afterwards
He could RAISE US!
WHEN
JESUS CHRIST REVIVES SPIRITUAL ISRAEL, HE COMES WITH A NEW COVENANT as they
failed through old covenant!
SANCTUARY MATTERS ARE VERY SERIOUS TO HIM!
FOR
THE NEW TESTAMENT TO BE IN FORCE HE HAD TO DIE!
BUT
HE HAD POWER TO TAKE IT AGAIN!
WE
HAVE SUCH A POWERFUL GOD –JESUS CHRIST IS THE ALMIGHTY FATHER, THE EVRLASTING
GOD!
He
was made as a SON OF GOD!
4
WHEN
HE WAS BORN AS A SON,
IN HIS LIFE AS A SON, HE SHOWED US THAT HE WAS COMPLETELY
SUBMISSIVE TO THE FATHER!
-even
to death He was obedient.
Php 2:8 And being found in
fashion as a man, He humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the
death of the cross.
Isa
9: 6-
For
unto us a child is
born, unto us a son
is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder:
GOD AS A SON SHOWED US THAT WE TOO WOULD BE SONS OF GOD--
1Jo 3:1 Behold, what manner
of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God:
SONS OF GOD HAVE TO BE LED BY
SPIRIT--
Ro 8:14 For as
many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. (WHEN ONE GOES THROUGH
THE WORDS OF GOD, YOU ARE BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT, as words are spirit, Jn 6:
63)
Therefore, when you read scriptures, and you act upon
those WORDS, YOU ARE BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT! When you read them, you can be
obedient to commands CONTAINED IN THE WORD OF GOD!
Ro 8:19 For the earnest
expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
(then
first you are to be baptised into JESUS CHRIST, and accept all benefits from
the cross of Jesus, BE CLEANSED OF SIN, and then YOU BEING LED BY SPIRIT, YOU
BECOME A SON OF GOD!)
Php 2:15 That ye may be
blameless and harmless, the sons of God,
n 1Jo 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth
not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we
shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.
WE SHOULD REMEMBER THAT JESUS CHRIST PORTRAYED AS A SON OF GOD—we could
take HIS EXAMPLE!
THEN WE RECEIVE HIS BLESSINGS-
Ro 8:17
And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint–heirs with Christ;
if so be that we suffer with Him, that we may be also glorified together.
Ga 3:29
And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and
heirs according to the promise.
Tit 3:7
That being justified by His grace, we should be made heirs according to
the hope of eternal life.
5
SO
SONS OF GOD should belong to JESUS CHRIST!
He
gave us the example how to become a son!
We are
joint heirs with Christ—what wonderful things we are to have, when we dwell
with the EVERLASTING JESUS CHRIST!
1Pe 2:9 But ye are a chosen
generation, a royal priesthood,
Ps 33:12 - Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the
people whom he hath chosen for His own inheritance.
Isa 44:1 –Yet now hear, O Jacob My servant; and Israel, whom I have
chosen: De 7:6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy
God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto Himself,
above all people that are upon the face of the earth.
(
De 14:2 says the
same thing!)
Ex 19:6 And ye shall be unto
Me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto
the children of Israel.
Isa 61:6 But ye shall be
named the Priests of the LORD:
SPIRITUAL ISRAEL IS A KINGDOM OF PRIESTS when they are purified by
JESUS CHRIST!
New Jerusalem is a kingdom of priests!
-
Re 14:4-
These are the
ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow
the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being
firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.
Isa 62: 2 And the Gentiles
shall see thy righteousness,
3 Thou shalt also be a crown
of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
4 Thou shalt no more be
termed Forsaken;--- thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land
Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.
5 For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy
sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so
shall thy God rejoice over thee.
Although
the church was named a harlot, Re 17: 5—she WILL BE PURIFIED TO THE LEVEL OF A
SPIRITUAL VIRGIN –the land of God will be purified to be with the LORD, Re 14;
4. they would make the new covenant with the LORD!
6
WHEN WE MAKE A COVENANT WITH HIM, WE ARE TO DO WHAT HE SAYS—A
COVENANT IS AN AGREEMENT!
De
26:18 And the LORD hath avouched thee
this day to be his peculiar people, as He hath promised thee, and that thou
shouldest keep all His commandments;
De
26:19 And to make thee high above all
nations which He hath made, in praise, and in name, and in honour; and that thou mayest be an holy
people unto the LORD thy God, as He hath spoken.
GENTILES
in 1st resurrection--Re 20:6-
in
the first resurrection:---- they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and
shall reign with him a thousand years. (that is LORD’s day, Ez 30; 3, thousand years
ending as a one single “yesterday”, Ps. 90: 4).
GENTILES RULE WITH HIM AS PRIESTS OF GOD
now!
–Eze. 30: 3, Re 5:10, Isa 56: 4-7, Jer 3: 15.
ISRAEL
WAY OF WORSHIP HAD TO BE DESTROYED, 1Co 3:17,
even
after being enlightened with faith in JESUS CHRIST, we are to guard ourselves
not to stray from the faith, 1 Tim 4: 1, Heb 6: 4, 6.
SO THE SON JESUS CHRIST, BECAME THE TESTATOR OF THE NEW COVENANT.
Isa 9: 6- His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God,
Ps 16:11 Thou wilt shew me
the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right
hand there are pleasures for evermore.
GIVES
COUNSELS TO LIVE-
Counsels
for salvation--
JESUS
CHRIST SENT HIS MESSENGERS as servants TO SERVE HEIRS OF SALVATION-they, the
gentiles are bringing messages of salvation--
Heb
1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits,
sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
Gentiles
became His SPIRITUAL servants while ISRAEL could not do these things
during the LORD’s day,(Isa 65:13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, My
servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, My servants shall drink,
but ye shall be thirsty: behold, My servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be
ashamed:
Isa 65:14 Behold, My
servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and
shall howl for vexation of spirit.)
(ISRAEL
became “restless” {that is under a famine, Joe 1:18, famine of words, Am 8:11, gentiles became
first fruits who feed, Isa 14; 30, they entered the spiritual “rest”}—ISRAEL
entered “restlessness”, while gentiles entered “rest”---gentiles eat, drink,
rejoice!).—Isa 56: 4-7, Zec 12: 8, Re
11: 2-4, Acts 2: 17,18.
But ISRAEL when corrected, will SERVE HIM,
Re 22:3 And there shall be no more
curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and His servants
shall serve Him:
ISRAEL SHOULD PRAY TO JESUS CHRIST AND ASK
FOR HIS MERCY!
7
SO THE COUNSELLOR SHOWS THE PATH—HE AS A SON WAS OBEDIENT TO FATHER,
HE WALKED THAT PATH BEING OBEDIENT TO COUNSELS OF GOD ALMIGHTY!
When we walk correctly we shall be led to His temple-
Eze
37:27 My tabernacle also shall be with
them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
Re
21:22 And I saw no temple therein: for
the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
Re
7:15 Therefore are they before the
throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple: and He that sitteth
on the throne shall dwell among them.
Re 7:16
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun
light on them, nor any heat.
Re
7:17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed
them,
Isa 65: 13 HUNGER AND THIRST for spiritual food will be
over in Re 7: 16!
WE ARE TO BE MADE SONS OF GOD!
HE HAD GIVEN THE KNOWLEDGE HOW TO BECOME A SON (by being a Son), AND
HE HAD MADE ALL SCARIFICES NECESSARY IN THE SANCTUARY FOR US THROUGH HIS DEATH ON
THE CROSS!
He
even gave us a cross to bear so that we overcome sin after we receive complete
forgiveness through His death on the cross !
Lu 14:27 "And whoever
does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.
Joh 12:26 If any man serve Me,
let him follow Me; Re 7:15 would happen when we correct ourselves!
Joh 14:3 And if I go and
prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that
where I am, there ye may be also.
8
LOOK
AT THE LOVE WE OUGHT TO HAVE--
1Jo 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because
he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the
brethren.
JOHN 10: 15 As the Father knoweth Me, even so know I the
Father: and I lay down My life for the sheep.
JESUS CHRIST GAVE US THE EXAMPLE!
JESUS CHRIST HAS SUCH A LOVE FOR BRETHREN—AND WE HAVE TO TAKE THAT
EXAMPLE OF LOVE!
Mt 4:19 And he saith unto
them, Follow me—
Mr 10:21---- take up the cross, and follow me.
Joh 12:26 If any man serve
me, let him follow me;
1Pe 2:21 For even hereunto
were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example,
that ye should follow his steps:
PAUL
TAUGHT US TO IMITATE HIM WHO IMITATED JESUS CHRIST!
1Co 11:1 Imitate me, just as
I also imitate Christ.
1Co 4:16 Therefore I urge
you, imitate me.
Paul
is the minister to gentiles who taught us all these things!-Rom 15; 16.
PAUL
TOO IMITATED JESUS CHRIST!
SO JESUS CHRIST AS A SON OF GOD LEFT US AN
EXAMPLE TO LOVE BRETHREN EVEN TO LAY DOWN HIS LIFE!
FOR THIS KIND OF LOVE HE HELPED US BY POURING HIS “LOVE” WHEN HE
GAVE HIS SPIRIT—
Rom 5: 5----because the love
of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST IS
CREATING A PEACE COVENANT, HE GAVE HIS LOVE TO US, SO THAT WE ALL LOVE EACH
OTHER TO BE A VERY LOVING FAMILY!
We should copy His example to be SONS OF GOD!
Then His genealogy would continue after Mt 1, as written in Isa 59:
21.
All
necessary things for the covenant of peace had been attained by JESUS CHRIST
through His Cross as you would understand after reading these writings, which
LEADS YOU BY HIS SPIRIT, the WORDS that are written!-Jn 6: 63.
9
The SON, JESUS CHRIST was obedient –He taught the correct ways (a short sermon,
Mt 5,6,7) , He criticized hypocrites (Mt 23),
Mt 23: 8 - for one is your
Master, even Christ;
14 Woe unto you, scribes and
Pharisees, hypocrites!
JESUS CHRIST showed us incorrect ways of
people, He chaseten the sons, Heb 12:7 If
you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there
whom a father does not chasten?
JESUS CHRIST is the FATHER of SPIRITS, so we should be in subjection
to Him, Heb 12:9—
TODAY
JESUS CHRIST AS HGH PRIEST CORRECTS ALL IN SPIRITUAL CHURCH OF GOD!
THE
SHEPHERD OF ISRAEL?
Jn 10: 14 I am the good
shepherd,
Heb 13:20 Now may the God
of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the
sheep,
JESUS
CHRIST OR GOD IS THE GOOD SHEPHERD!—HE IS THE GOD OR KING OF PEACE!
GOD OF PEACE WHO BROUGHT UP JESUS CHRIST
FROM THE DEAD is explained in Jn 10: 18, HEB 7: 1---it is JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF !
IT IS ONLY ONE great SHEPHERD!
John
10: 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I
know them, and they follow Me:
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish,
neither shall any man pluck them out of My hand.
29 My Father, which gave them Me, is greater
than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father’s hand.
30
I and My Father are one.
Heb 12:9 - Shall we not much
more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?
JN
10: 28 (above) And I give unto them eternal life;
FATHER AND JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONE TRUE GOD
who gives ETERNAL life!
Therefore----WE HAVE
TO BE IN SUBJECTION TO JESUS CHRIST!
JOHN
10: 15 As the Father knoweth Me, even so
know I the Father: and I lay down My life for the sheep.
Joh
14:9 -He who has seen Me has seen the
Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father‘?
Joh
14:7 "If you had known Me, you
would have known My Father also;
FATHER AND JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONE TRUE
GOD!
HE HIMSELF IS THE HIGH PRIEST of
Melchisedec order.
SO JESUS CHRIST MADE LIKE A SON, HEB 7; 3,
TAUGHT US HOW TO BECOME SONS OF GOD, WHILE SHEDDING HIS BLOOD OF THE COVENANT!
10
JESUS
CHRIST AS HIGH PRIEST WORKING TODAY--
Zec
12: 8-10-In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of
Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as
David; and the house of David shall be as God,-- 9-in that day,
that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10-I
will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the
spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon Me whom
they have pierced,
Rewriting the fulfilling
vss. (of Zec 12: 8-10)
In that day, Eze. 30: 3; ---times of gentiles, it is the
LORD’s day
defend inhabitants of Jerusalem, Mal 3: 1-3 ( LORD comes
to temple suddenly, He is messenger of covenant, He comes to purify Levi, IF HE
CORRECTS Levi, THE PRIESTS, they could become true disciples!),
feeble work as David—gentiles times, feeble
work one as a thousand (Isa 60: 22), gentiles are as having the heart of David,
to serve the LORD in reviving David’s house, Acts 15: 16, which worship JESUS CHRIST TRULY, AND
SERVE HIM THE WAY HE REQUIRES!
Continuing—explaining
Zec 12; 8-10
When
ISRAEL failed in David’s throne, some others raised to continue, Jer 33:17
House of David as
God—GOD HIMSELF CONTROLLING, the place of worshipping Him, HE
WORKS AS High Priest –
I will pour upon the
house of David---
the spirit of grace and of supplications—HOUSE OF DAVID where ISRAEL should worship God has to be corrected, HE
POURS GRACE AND SUPPLICATIONS on them—spiritual
sacrifices has to be done in the tabernacle of God to REVIVE Levi WHO FAILED in their duties!
It is DONE BY GRACE OF JESUS
CHRIST, and HIMSELF AS THE High Priest of Melchisedec order.
In that day--
destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem—
Wickedness of ministry come as nations
(Jer 25: 17, 18, Isa 9: 18)
Jer 4:16 "Make
mention to the nations, Yes, proclaim against Jerusalem,
—THE MINISTRY HAS COME AGAINST CHURCH,
TO DESTROY THE SPIRITUAL THINGS OF GOD, and they are doing a work of their own,
they are not worshipping JESUS CHRIST as the WAY DAVID DID! The LORD requires
us to worship as DAVID DID!
So the ministry which are
against spiritual things will be destroyed—
A NEW MINISTRY TO SERVE PRIESTHOOD OF
Melchisedec order WOULD BE MADE! (they are cleansed by fire of the LORD as
explained in part 2)
11
Zec 12: 10--they shall look
upon Me whom they have pierced,--TODAY WE
ARE LOOKING AT JESUS CHRIST ON THE CROSS—these articles on the cross of
JESUS CHRIST projects HIM WHO WAS PIERCED!
We are looking on Him pierced!
WHEN WE LOOK SO—WE SEE HOW WE HAD DONE AGAINST HIM, BUT WE ALSO SEE HOW THE LORD
SUFFERED FOR THE SAKE OF THE SHEEP, Jn 10: 15; I lay down My
life for the sheep.
The cross of JESUS CHRIST brings many benefits for SHEEP TO
RETURN TO HIM—TO TURN OUR HEARTS TO HIM!
Therefore spiritual ministry of ISRAEL
should ACCEPT THE LORD’S WORK done on the cross, TO REVIVE THEM TO BE WITH HIM
FOREVER!
SOME
OF THE BENEFITS WE HAD DISCUSSED IN PREVIOUS PARTS ARE--
HE HAD GIVEN
ALL THINGS TO BE THE PROPITIATION FOR OUR SINS, — The cross is connected to His resurrection,
baptism, Ro 6:3,4, Redemption, grace, propitiation by blood shed on
the cross, Ro 3: 24, 25, Justification, Rom 5:1, 9, 18, 3: 24, 1Jo 2:2, 1
Joh 4: 10, sacrifice and offering for
sin, remission, atonement, Ro 5:11 , Heb 9:28 so Christ was offered once to bear the sins
of many.
cleansing,salvation,
reconciliation, Rom 5: 10, Passover , Joh
6:54, 57, Mt 26:26, Mr 14:22 , 1Co 11:24,
Many made righteous, Rom 5: 19, Rom 3: 21-22,the
promise of inheritance through the new covenant, Mt 26:28, Mr 14:24 , Lu 22:20,
1Co 11:25 -"This cup is the new covenant in My blood”, Heb 9:18, Heb 9:20
saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded
you."—inheritance in Eze. Chap. 47-48, giving eternal life, Joh
6; 54,
THOSE BENEFITS WERE ALL POSSIBLE
THROUGH HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS—JESUS CHRIST ONLY UNDERSTAND THE SPIRITUAL
THINGS NEEDED TO RECONCILE TO HIM!
HE
HAD DONE ALL THAT WORK THROUGH HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS!
They are now taught to ISRAEL
by JESUS CHRIST Himself in the house of God Served by the gentiles, Re 11: 2-4-,
Zec 12: 8-10--
The work is supplying spiritual clothes
to the ministry to revive Jerusalem (the fallen spiritual church), to make it
NEW JERUSALEM, the bride of JESUS CHRIST, Re 21: 2.
12
A
quick glance at the bride--
RE
21: 2—bride of JESUS CHRIST
Vs.
5 And He that sat upon the throne said,
Behold, I make all things new.(at the end of this article you would
understand that He had even changed the priesthood to Melchisedek order—THEN NO MORE Aaron’s
priesthood!
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all
things; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son.
9--
Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the
Lamb’s wife.
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain,
and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
12 And had a wall great and high-- names written thereon, which are the names of
the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
SO
THE BRIDE, NEW JERUSALEM HAS NAMES OF ISRAEL TRIBES ON IT’S WALL!
Descending
out of heaven-
THE LORD DWELLS IN HEAVEN, then THOSE with Him too are in a spiritual
heaven, gentiles as first
fruits, Isa 14: 30, are having citizenship in spiritual heaven, (Php 3:20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which
we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, ), then when Zec 12: 8-10 work
finishes,
The bride would be
ready with the work of spiritual heaven!
Re 21 NEW JERUSALEM would be accomplished, IT IS HOLY AFTER THE LORD
CLEANSED IT through the work of Him, as High Priest.
THE NAMES OF TRIBES OF ISRAEL written on NEW JERUSALEM!
Earlier
the names of ISRAEL were removed from the record, by God--Eze 13:9 "My hand will be against the prophets---they shall not
be in the assembly of My people, nor be written in the record of the house of
Israel, -- (ISRAEL not in assembly of gentiles, of Isa 56: 4-7)-But, after correction of the Levi, the ministry, THE LORD
WILL WRITE THEIR NAMES AGAIN IN NEW JERUSALEM!
Re 21: 22 And I saw no temple
therein: for the Lord God
Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.--Then what is the use of
man made temples?-THE LAMB IS THE TEMPLE!
23 And the city had no need of the sun,
neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and
the Lamb is the light
thereof.--Should any chandeliers high as walls give light to the
temple?--THE LAMB IS THE LIGHT!
13
Isa 44: 1 - "Yet hear now, O Jacob My servant, And Israel whom I have chosen.-2 Thus says the LORD who made you And formed
you from the womb, who
will help you: ‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant; And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water on him who is thirsty,
And floods on the dry ground;
I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, And My blessing on your offspring;--4 They will spring up among the grass Like willows by the
watercourses.’--
Ps
137:1-6—ISRAEL is in the midst of willows, By the rivers of Babylon, in a foreign
land (captivity), but the LORD will remember them!
Spiritual
Floods on the spiritually dry ground—spiritual knowledge given as water, Isa
11:9, Hab 2:14, spiritual famine in ISRAEL, Am 8:11
THE
LORD’S SPIRIT, (the words, Jn 6: 63), IS SENT AS FLOODS!
Eze
13:11-- There
will be flooding rain,
FIRST
THE LORD SENT IT IN ANGER, Eze 13:13, Eze 38:22, BUT NOW IN MERCY TO BUILD ISRAEL UP, AND TO REDEEM THEM,
Isa
54:8 -- With a little wrath I hid My face from
you for a moment; But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,"
Says the LORD, your Redeemer.
14
One should understand what a great SPIRITUAL work the LORD is doing
to save ISRAEL from their erros!
THIS IS TO MAKE THE ETERNAL
COVENANT after which ISRAEL would NEVER GO ASTRAY!—Isa 59: 21
Then--Isa 44: 5 One will
say, ‘I am the LORD’S’; Another will call himself by the name of Jacob; Another
will write with his hand, ‘The LORD’S,’ And name himself by the name of Israel.
6 "Thus says the LORD,
the King of Israel, And his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: ‘I am the First and I
am the Last; Besides Me there is no God.
And
Isa 44: 7-8 describes the gentile witness work as written earlier. They have to
tell these things to ISRAEL!
Read--
- “GOSPEL OF GRACE LEADS TO PRODUCE FRUITS OF
KNOWLEDGE of JESUS CHRIST 2 PET
1.8”—of 2/12/10
- Christ is the end of the law for Righteousness
to believers, Rom 10: 4”—of 18/11/10
- “JESUS CHRIST CHANGES FILTHY RAGS INTO
RIGHTEOUS CLOTHES” of 27/12/2010
JESUS CHRIST is the living God, who
sacrificed His precious blood on the cross to save His people,
THEN HE WILL RAISE THOSE WHO BELIEVE HIM according
to SANCTUARY ways, (Ps. 77: 13), as a High Priest would do.
God’s priests should separate themselves for the work of the house
of God! They should know their priorities!
15
Please
read again about this High Priest Melchisedec-
HEB
7: 1 - For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of
the Most High God,--2 to whom
also Abraham gave a tenth part of all, first being translated "king of righteousness," and then also king of Salem, meaning "king
of peace,"--3 without
father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days
nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually.
SO WE LEARN THAT GOD HIMSELF (who did nor have a genealogy or a
beginning) BECAME JESUS CHRIST!-He was made like a son!—Heb 7:3--(as a son He was in
complete obedience to the Father’s will, A LESSON FOR US TO BE OBEDIENT!)
Joh 12:27
The child is MIGHTY GOD! Everlasting FATHER!-Isa 9: 6
As a child He is PRINCE OF PEACE, Isa 9: 6
AS HIGH PRIEST, and GOD, HE
IS KING OF PEACE!—above vss.
GOD HAS MANY NAMES when HE PERFORMS DIFFERENT WORKS!
FATHER AND JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONE TRUE
GOD!
HE DOES ALL THINGS—HE IS THE HIGH PRIEST AS
WELL-
HEB 6: 20
-- even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according
to the order of Melchizedek.
Ps. 77: 13 says GOD HAS HIS WAY IN
SANCTUARY—THEREFORE HE BECAME HIGH PRIEST to correct matters in SANCTUARY!
16
NOW
ZACHARIAS HAD PROPHESIED ---
LU 1: 13 - and thou shalt
call his name John. 17 And he shall go before Him in the spirit and power of Elias,--- to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
BEFORE THE LORD COMES A PEOPLE MUST BE
PREPARED!
When
He came as God in Zec 12: 8-10, He Himself prepared gentiles to serve Him, Isa
56: 4-7, Zec: 12: 8.
And
NOW A PEOPLE FROM ISRAEL IS BEING PREPARED, MAL 3: 3, Eze. 30: 3, THEN THE
CAPTIVITY OF ISRAEL WOULD BE OVER, Eze 39:28
(that
vs. says that IT IS THE LORD WHO SENT ISRAEL INTO CAPTIVITY and HE WILL REMOVE
CAPTIVITY and at that time, ISRAEL WOULD KNOW that JESUS CHRIST is THEIR GOD!
Gentiles as first fruits, Isa 14: 30 were prepared to serve Him
when He is their leader, the High Priest, Zec 12: 8-10, Heb 8: 1.
AT THIS TIME SPIRITUAL ISRAEL IS DEAD SPIRITUALLY –THEY
ARE Laodicean—THE LORD WAS HIDING FROM THEM, Ez 39: 23, Isa 54:8-- I hid My face from you for a moment; But with everlasting kindness I
will have mercy on you," Says the LORD, your Redeemer.
17
Ro 5:12 death
passed upon all men, ---
Isa 22:2- 5 –spiritual death in captivity
THEY ARE TO BE SAVED
FROM DYING ETERNALLY!
ISRAEL do not
UNDERSTAND DEEP THINGS THE LORD HAD DONE TO SAVE THEM, therefore the LORD is
EDUCATING THEM, SO THAT THEY KNOW THEIR GOD, JESUS CHRIST!
THE LORD MAKES THEM KNOW HOW HE HAD DONE TO SAVE THEM!—He created a spiritual Pharaoh, Rom 9: 17, and
ISRAEL among Egypt, and Assyria, Isa 19:24, 25;
Isa
31:1 Woe to those who go down to Egypt
for help,
Isa
43:3 For I am the LORD your God, The
Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I gave Egypt for your ransom,
Isa
27:12 And it shall come to pass in that
day That the LORD will
thresh, From the channel of the River to the Brook of Egypt; And you will be gathered one by one,
O you children of Israel.
JESUS CHRIST IS
THRESHING TO GATHER ISRAEL amidst Egypt, spiritual Pharaoh ruling them!
Jerusalem had become Egypt!
Church had gone to SIN!
A NEW JERUSALEM HAS TO
BE PREPARED FOR THE LAMB TO MARRY HER, RE 21: 2, 19: 7.—Jerusalem is the holy
mountain which the LORD chose for ISRAEL to worship Him!
Heb 12:22 , Joe 2:32 And it shall come to pass That whoever calls
on the name of the LORD Shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there shall be deliverance,
18
WHEN NEW COVENANT HAS
TO BE ESTABLISHED,
Passover SHOULD BE
SPIRITUALLY FULFILLED—
ALL THESE YEARS WE HAD
TAKEN ONLY SYMBOLS—wine and bread.
JESUS CHRIST had instituted
Passover and the symbol of partaking of His blood of the new covenant , we are
commanded to DRINK HIS BLOOD 1Co 11:25, (and we take wine),
The time comes to PARTAKE THE REAL Passover !
We should understand
fully what the LORD had done on the cross when He died for us! How He baptizes
us into His death etc, Rom 6: 23. (please read part 2). WHEN ISRAEL TRULY
BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST, THEY WILL EAT OF THE TRUE Passover !
JUST BEFORE THE LORD
DIED--
Then,---
the hour came for JESUS CHRIST to die on the cross, Joh 12: 27, --In JOHN 13: 1 - Now before the feast of
the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from
this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world,
He loved them to the end.
JESUS CHRIST loved
ISRAEL to the end—He was
thinking of ISRAEL on the cross! He descended from ISRAEL! Mt 1.—He loved ISRAEL,
His own!
Then, He sacrificed HIMSELF
as the Passover lamb.
Joh 12: 31 "Now is the
judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.---32 "And I, if I am lifted up
from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself."
SEE,
ON THE CROSS HE WOULD SACRFICE HIMSELF, SHED HIS BLOOD, BECOME THE Passover LAMB, and the ruler (satan) who influence the ministry would be
CAST OUT and DRAW ISRAEL TO HIMSELF!
In
John 13: 1—the peoples of 12: 32 are those whom He loved, ISRAEL! His own
people, the LORD descended from ISRAEL, Mt 1.
(please remember that He has to continue with His descendants,
that is why He has to draw peoples to Himself in the above vs.! But He has to produce a
HOLY SEED! –read in part 2).
THE COUNSELOR (Isa 9: 6)
KNOWS THAT HE HAS TO DIE TO DRAW PEOPLES TO HIMSELF!
THEN HE COULD CONTINUE THE GENEALOGY OF ISRAEL, Isa 59: 21!
IT
IS THROUGH HIS DEATH THAT HE WAS GOING TO GET HIS PEOPLE TO HIMSELF!--Get the
people with His sacrifice for them,on the cross!
19
WE ARE
COMMANDED TO TAKE Passover, 1Co 11:25, Joh 6:55
The BLOOD SHED ON THE
CROSS COULD ONLY GIVE LIFE TO SINNERS TO SAVE FROM DEATH!
Therefore when the Passover FULFILLS SPIRITUALLY, WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND
THE DEEP THINGS that concern THE BLOOD OF JESUS
CHRIST BEFORE WE PARTAKE THE TRUE spiritual BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!
UNDERSTANDING THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT-
Heb
9:20 saying, "This is the blood of
the covenant which God has commanded you."
If you DO NOT REGARD THIS BLOOD OF THE COVENANT, A SERIOUS
PUNISHMENT IS ON THE CARD—
Heb 10:29 Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose,
will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted
the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing,
and insulted the Spirit of grace?
I must confess -- I AM DEEPLY DISTURBED HOW BEST I COULD CONVEY
THESE MESSAGES OF JESUS CHRIST, THE LORD IS SPEAKING OF SERIOUS BUSINESS OF HIS!
PLEASE MIND, WE ARE GRASS, BUT THE LORD IS THE CREATOR OF CREATION!
THE CREATOR HAD SHED HIS BLOOD ON THE
CROSS, AS no priest could PREPARE THE BRIDE FOR JESUS CHRIST!
NO men high priests of the
order of AARON was able to prepare a HOLY people for JESUS CHRIST, FOR HIM TO
DWELL WITH!
The
LORD required a people, THE CREATOR CHOSE THE ISRAEL, AND JERUSALEM FOR HIM TO
DWELL WITH THEM,
but no leader WAS ABLE TO PERFORM WHAT THE LORD REQUIRED!
HE
KNEW ALL THESE WOULD HAPPEN,
AND
HE CHOSE TO SACRIFICE HIS BLOOD ON THE CROSS TO SAVE THE PEOPLE HE CHOSE!
JN
10: 18 -I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again.--1Pe
2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His
own body on the tree,
IT IS A VERY SAD THING THAT HIGH PRIESTS NEVER UNDERSTOOD THE SPIRITUAL THINGS
OF JESUS CHRIST!
WHEN THE LORD REQUIRED A SPECIAL “SPIRITUAL ROYAL PRIESTHOOD” ( that
is a holy people to dwell with the LORD forever), the priests projected WORLDLY
ROYALTY and
MISGUIDED THE PEOPLE OF THE LORD!
A SPIRITUAL PEOPLE WERE NOT PREPARED!
HOW COULD A HOLY JESUS CHRIST
MAKE A SPIRITUAL NEW COVENANT WITH such people?
20
Heb
9:20 saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you."
When we partook the Passover yearly,
DID WE EVER THINK OF THE NEW COVENANT?---GOD HAD COMMANDED US TO SINCERELY TAKE HIS BLOOD OF
THE COVENANT!—
WHAT DOES BLOOD OF COVENANT DO FOR US?
IT MAKES US PARTAKE OF THE NEW COVENANT!
Through the purification of
the blood of JESUS CHRIST, we are able to partake of the covenant!
HAVE WE EVER CONSIDERED THE CONDITIONS OF
THE NEW COVENANT?
Ro
6:4 Therefore we were buried with Him
through baptism into death,----
even so we also should walk in newness of
life.
Are we ready as new men to make the new
covenant?
21
We
have to very sadly PONDER ON THESE LAPSES OF US!
Can we understand how the ministry of
the church HAD MISGUIDED THE PEOPLE?
WHY HAS THIS HAPPENED?
Ps 25:14 The secret of the LORD is with them
that fear Him; and He will shew them His covenant.
What
could we learn from that vs.?
THE MINISTRY HAD NOT FEARED HIM—THEREFORE,
LORD HAD NOT SHOWN FACTS ABOUT HIS COVENANT!
HOW CAN YOU FEAR WHEN MINISTERS TRY TO
BE EQUAL WITH HIM?We should remember
how the ministry was trying to be equal with Him, trying to be capital
“G” Gods!
Isa 40:25 To whom then will ye liken Me, or shall I be
equal? saith the Holy One.--Isa 46:5 To
whom will ye liken Me, and make Me equal, and compare Me, that we may be like?
Very sadly we should understand these things—
When the church
leader maintains “ABSOLUTE
POWER” in the church–in H.W.Armstrong’s coworker letter of 19/3/81, it was
stated about the “one man leadership”!
And the leader THINKS OF TAKING OVER THE POWER OF GOD, The power of GOD THE CREATOR
HAS!
The vain men think of being EQUAL with God!
They LIKEN them to God!--They COMPARE GOD with them!
Jas
3: 13- Who is wise and understanding
among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.--14 But if you have bitter envy and self–seeking in your
hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.--15 This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual,
demonic.
16
For where envy and self–seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing
are there.
We
should not be self-seeking among men!—then SHOULD WE SEEK TO BE AS GOD?
WE
SHOULD SEEK GODLY WISDOM TO BE WITH JESUS CHRIST!
TO
MAKE THE NEW COVENANT WITH HIM!
22
Please
note the scriptures as you read them—it says the blood of the covenant –
THEN WE ARE PREPARING FOR THE
NEW COVENANT WHEN we PARTAKE of THE TRUE Passover,--- understanding all
things of JESUS CHRIST!
We
should understand how the LORD is baptising us with spiritual water, spirit,
and fire-
Please
read—
- “BLOOD OF THE COVENANT SHED FOR THE REMISSION OF
SINS” of 12/12/2010
- “JESUS CHRIST CHANGES FILTHY RAGS INTO
RIGHTEOUS CLOTHES” of 27/12/2010
- “PART 1 CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST , THE POWER OF
GOD 1 CO 1.18”- of 4/1 2011
- “PART 2 CROSS OF JESUS and BAPTISM into His
death ROM 6:3” 0F 17/1/2011
So now to make people of the LORD
understand, the HIGH PRIEST JESUS CHRIST IS WORKING among the gentiles, Zec 12:
8-10.
23
AND THE LORD SENDS HIS LIFE
GIVING WORDS—
WHEN YOU READ THEM, YOU ARE
TO BELIEVE IN THE SAVING POWER OF JESUS CHRIST,
Believe in HIS MERCY TO
FORGIVE SINNERS, Ho 13:14 "I will ransom
them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death. Zec 10:8 I will whistle for them and gather them, For
I will redeem them; And they shall increase as they once increased.
Believe in THE WORDS THAT
CONTAIN HIS LAWS AND JUDGMENTS, INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NEW LIFE IN HIM, Heb 10:20 By a new and living way, which He hath
consecrated for us, Ro 7:6 But now we have been
delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve
in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
ALL ABOUT THE NEW WAY OF LIFE IN JESUS CHRIST IS WRITTEN IN HIS
WORD, AND HE GIVES THE SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING TO THE BELIEVERS during HIS
SHORT WORK upon the earth.
This
is all to make the new covenant!
24
THEREFORE THE LORD IS
PERFORMING HIS SHORT WORK UPON THE EARTH, WITH THE GENTILES SERVING HIM, TO
SAVE THE FIRST FRUITS OF Israel , AND THE FIRST FRUITS OF GENTILES ARE
ALREADY SAVED, Isa 14: 30, BUT ALL SAVED HAVE TO CONTINUE
IN THE GOODNESS OF JESUS CHRIST, anyone could fall if YOU DO NOT ABIDE IN HIM,
Rom 11: 22, 1 Tim 4: 1.
AFTER
SAVING, ONE HAS TO ABIDE IN JESUS CHRIST AS NEW MEN!
EVERY ONE HAS TO HONOUR , HIS GRACE THROUGH WHICH HE
HAD GIVEN ALL KNOWLEDGE OF HIM AND HIS BLOOD OF THE COVENANT!—Heb 10: 29
LU 1: 17 And he shall go before Him in
the spirit and power of Elias,--- to
make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Final
return of JESUS CHRIST is for the making of the new covenant –the new marriage
covenant AS NEW JERUSALEM, RE 19: 7, 21: 2, AS ISAIAH PROPHESIED, Isa 62: 4,5,
Isa 59: 21, Isa 66: 22-23,
AND NOTE ALSO VS. 24—it says of those who REFUSE TO KEEP HIS
LAWS! ---Isa 66: 22-24 (below) IS
about THE LAST TIMES when HE WOULD HAVE THE TABERNACLE
READY FOR PEOPLE TO WORSHIP IN TRUTH!
Then a PEOPLE who would honor His laws, WOULD
BE READY FOR HIM!
Isa
66: 22 For as the new heavens and the
new earth, which I will make, shall remain before Me, saith the LORD, so shall
your seed and your name remain. (Isa 59: 21 is fulfilling shortly)
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new
moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to
worship before Me, saith the LORD.
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the
carcases of the men that have transgressed against Me:
25
The people would be ready to make the new
covenant, Isa 59: 21, Isa 66: 22-23, ALL IN CAPTIVITY WOULD RETURN, Eze 39:28, Jer 46:27, all ISRAEL
would be free and no one would worry them!---, and now, THEY ARE BEING
PREPARED BY THE LORD HIMSELF, AS HIGH PRIEST OF MELCHISEDEK ORDER! Heb 8: 1
Isa
48:11 For My own sake, for My own sake,
I will do it; For how should My name be profaned? And I will not give My glory to
another.
Zec
6: 12
- Behold
the man whose name is The BRANCH;
-- and He shall build the temple of the LORD:13
Even He shall build the temple of the LORD; and He shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon His throne; and He shall be a priest
upon His throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.---
15 And they that are far off shall
come and build in the temple of the LORD, Ps 127:1 - Unless the LORD builds the house, They
labor in vain who build it;
The LORD is served by the gentile witnesses of
far off!-Zec 12: 8-10, (Far-Isa 13:5, Jer 4:16, Jer 8:19, )
HE SHALL BEAR THE GLORY, HE
SHALL BE A PRIEST!
So THE BRANCH is the PRIEST
OF Melchisedec order!
MAKE SURE THAT THE BRANCH IS JESUS CHRIST-
-
Jer 23:5 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I
will raise unto David a righteous
Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall
execute judgment and justice in the earth.
Jer
33:15 In those days, and at that time,
will I cause the Branch of
righteousness to grow up unto David; and He shall execute judgment and righteousness
in the land.
The LORD was served by the Gentile assembly to execute His Judgments –Eze. 16: 40-
"They shall
also bring up an assembly—41- and execute judgments—la 1: 15, Re 11: 2-4.
The
Judgments are in –

26
Contd Lu 1-
LU 1: 67 - And his father Zacharias --- prophesied, saying,
68 Blessed be the Lord
God of Israel; for
He hath visited and redeemed His people, (that means JESUS CHRIST was born to redeem ISRAEL)
72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and
to remember His holy covenant; ( --
Isa 59:21 "As
for Me," says the LORD, "this is My covenant with them: Isa 61:8- I will direct their
work in truth, And will make with them an everlasting covenant.)
73 The oath which he sware to our
father Abraham,
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being
delivered out of the
hand of our enemies
might serve Him without fear,
The enemies are the priests of
Aaron’s order, who does a WORK OF ERROR! Ps 115:10 O
house of Aaron, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield.
We are not to follow false oaths—the LORD hates such oaths-
Zec 8:17
75 In holiness and righteousness before Him, all
the days of our life.-(- Ge 26:3
"Dwell in this land, and I will be with you and bless you; for to
you and your descendants I give all these lands, and I will perform the oath
which I swore to Abraham your father)—that means He was
speaking of the covenant!.—Isa 59: 21
76 And thou, child, shalt be
called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the
Lord to prepare His
ways;
(fulfilled
in Ac 3:22, Ac 7:37- Moses who said to the children of Israel, ‘The LORD your
God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. Him you shall hear.’)
IN THE WORD OF GOD, JESUS CHRIST HAD GOT HIS WORDS RECORDED –AND we
are to hear Him through HIS WORDS!
And He sends His messages through His servants,
present day Eze 30:, 3 , 9-- they are gentiles, Re 11: 2-4, Isa 60: 9.
Gentiles are made to understand His messages for ISRAEL to hear, Isa
60: 3.
·
He came the first time,
AS A SON to die for our sins,
And to teach how we should be
obedient as sons.
·
then IN THE LAST DAYS
HE CAME TO GIVE SALVATION (apart from sin) as THE HIGH PRIEST,
Heb 9:28 so Christ was offered once to bear the
sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second
time, apart from sin, for salvation.
27
HIGH
PRIEST GIVES KNOWLEDGE--
77 To give knowledge of
salvation unto His people by the remission of their sins,( fulfilled in death of
Jesus--Mt 26:28 "For this is My blood of the new
covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.-
Ac 10:43 "To Him all the prophets witness that,
through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins."
SO WE PEOPLE OF HIS SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT HIS BLOOD WAS SHED FOR
REMISSION OF SINS---IN
ORDER TO MAKE THE NEW COVENANT!
78 Through the tender mercy
of our God; whereby the dayspring
from on high hath visited us,--( Re 22:16
"I, Jesus,--- I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning
Star.")
JESUS
CHRIST died on the cross and paved the way to give light to the spiritual
ISRAEL who are in NIGHT, Ho 4:5
FIRST
TIME HE VISITED TO DIE ON THE CROSS--
NOW
HE HAS VISITED TO GIVE SALVATION TO THOSE ISRAEL WHO ARE IN spiritual
darkness!----Laodiceans.
79--To give light to them
that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into
the way of peace.---
ISRAEL
made a covenant with death, Isa 28:15, but JESUS CHRIST ANNULS IT by a
overflowing scourge, Isa 28:18 (this overflowing had been fulfilled with the
Judgment work done by JESUS CHRIST through the gentile witness work--http://www.gentileassembly.org/)
Ps
49:14 Like sheep they are laid in the
grave; Death shall feed on them; The upright shall have dominion over them in
the morning; And their beauty shall be consumed in the grave, Ho 13:14 "I will ransom
them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death.
Upright gentiles have dominion over ISRAEL during the time they
serve the MORNING STAR! (please note—gentiles were made upright to serve Him,
as they hear Him, Acts 28: 28, Isa 54: 17.)
28
JESUS
CHRIST MAKES A NEW COVENANT through His death-
Heb
9:15 And for this reason He I s the Mediator of the new
covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the
first covenant, that those who are called may receive
the promise of the eternal inheritance.
(the called out, Jn 6: 44, THOSE OF SPIRITUAL Zion would know that they had not kept the
law, and that they had failed from law keeping,
That
means THEY HAD MADE A COVENANT OF DEATH!
THROUGH
MERCY AND GRACE OF JESUS CHRIST, HE HAD PAVED A WAY TO SACRIFICE HIMSELF AND BE
AN OFFERING FOR THE SINS OF THE CALLED OUT ISRAEL!
THEREBY
THE CALLED OUT MAY BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST TO RECEIVE THE PROMISED INHERITANCE,
and make the NEW COVENANT with Him!
THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO RECEIVE HIS PROMISE!
BE READY TO BE THE FIRST FRUITS OF ISRAEL!
(gentiles are already first fruits, Isa 14: 30, who have to maintain
good works, Tit 3:8, 14).
please remember that CROSS is involved in
His death, shedding blood, His sufferings on the cross, His resurrection, His
sacrifice, His offering, remission of sins, redemption, salvation, making
peace, reconciliation, new covenant, atonement, Passover to name some--
--THESE ARE ALL BENEFITS TO US THROUGH THE
CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST, ATTAINED THROUGH HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD!
1Pe
2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree,
that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes
ye were healed.
So the above benefits and those mentioned
below are all benefits that would accompany HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD
AND THAT BLOOD IS THE BLOOD OF THE
COVENANT!
29
TO BE THE
PROPITIATION FOR OUR SINS, HE HAD GIVEN ALL THINGS— The cross is connected to His resurrection,
baptism,
Redemption, grace, propitiation by blood shed on the cross, Ro 3:
24, 25, Justification,
Rom 5:1, 9, 18, 3: 24, 1Jo
2:2, 1 Joh 4: 10,
sacrifice and offering
for sin, remission, atonement, Ro 5:11 , Heb 9:28 so Christ was offered once to bear the sins
of many.
cleansing,salvation,
reconciliation, Rom 5: 10, Passover , Joh
6:54, 57, Mt 26:26, Mr 14:22 , 1Co 11:24,
Many made righteous, Rom 5: 19, Rom 3: 21-22,
the promise of
inheritance through the new covenant, Mt 26:28, Mr 14:24 , Lu 22:20, 1Co 11:25
-"This cup is the new covenant in My blood”, Heb 9:18, Heb 9:20
saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded
you."—inheritance in Eze. Chap. 47-48, giving eternal life, Joh
6; 54,
Joh 19:30 So when Jesus had
received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!"
JESUS
CHRIST KNEW THAT HE HAD ACCOMPLISHED ALL THE WORK THAT HE HAD TO GET DONE
THROUGH THE BLOOD HE SHED ON THE CROSS!
THE
MINISTRY HAD NOT SHOWN THESE TO MAKE THE NEW COVENANT!
30
(
Isa 45:7 I form the light and create darkness, I make
peace and create calamity; I, the LORD, do all these things-- Isa 51:4- For law will proceed from Me, And I will
make My justice rest As a light of the peoples.-- Ho 6:5 - Your judgments are like light that goes forth.-
Mic
7:8- The
LORD will be a light
to me.-- Mic 7:9- He will bring me forth to the light; I
will see His righteousness.-
LIGHT WILL BE SHOWN THROUGH HIS JUSTICE,
LAWS OF LOVE, His Judgments, His Righteousness—when we are obedient to Him to
do those things, we see His light!
Lu 6:46 "But why do you
call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do the things which I say?
SO
THOSE WHO SEE HIS LIGHT SHOULD ACT UPON HIS WORDS, AND COMMANDS!
Joh
8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again,
saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in
darkness, but have the light of life."-- Joh 15:7 "If you abide in Me, and My words abide
in you, --
ABIDE IN HIM, AND IN HIS WORDS!—HE IS THE PRIEST WITH OATH-
Heb 7:20 And inasmuch as He was not made
priest without an oath--21 (for they have become priests
without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: "The
LORD has sworn And will not relent, ‘You are a priest forever According to the
order of Melchizedek’ "),
JESUS
CHRIST who was made a priest with OATH, made it possible for all believers to
enter into the new covenant!
31
SO THE OATH IS TO DELIVER HIS
PEOPLE FROM ENEMIES. FREE THEM AND BLESS THEM, with the new covenant SO THAT PEOPLE WOULD SERVE HIM WITHOUT FEAR, IN HOLINESS AND
RIGHTEOUSNESS BEFORE GOD.(the leaders who teach false things are enemies of people
because they DO NOT ALLOW PEOPLE TO WORSHIP HIM TRULY IN Righteousness),
IN
THE PRESENT TIMES THERE IS STRIFE AMONG MINISTRY—WHAT SHOULD BE DONE?
Heb 6:16 For men verily
swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all
strife. 17
Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise
the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
18 That by two immutable
things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong
consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before
us:
19 Which hope we
have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth
into that within the veil;
20 Whither the forerunner
is for us entered, even Jesus, made
an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
Leave all priests
aside and CLING TO JESUS CHRIST!
BECAUSE
JESUS CHRIST ENTERED FIRST, HE MADE POSSIBLE FOR US ALSO TO ENTER THE HOLIEST,
while the other priests were UNABLE TO MAKE PEOPLE ENTER THE HOLIEST!
Heb
7:27 who does not need daily, as those
high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the
people’s,
Heb
7:28 For the law appoints as high
priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son
who has been perfected forever.
Through
JESUS CHRIST we too are able to enter when we do as He says!
32
KING OF PEACE MAKES A COVENANT OF PEACE--
Heb 7:2 King of Salem, which is, King of
peace;
--3 made like
unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
HE IS MADE AS A SON—AND A PRIEST!
And the LORD makes a covenant of peace-- Eze 37:26 "Moreover I
will make a covenant of peace with them, and it shall be an everlasting
covenant with them; I will establish them and multiply them, and I will set My
sanctuary in their midst forevermore.
BECAUSE
HE IS KING OF PEACE, and the High Priest, JESUS CHRIST IS ABLE TO MAKE THE COVENANT
OF PEACE, and build up the SANCTUARY!
We see that when men priests could not attain
what God needed us to attain---JESUS CHRIST had made it possible to do so by
being THE SON WHO SACRIFICED HIMSELF, AND THEN DO THE PRIESTLY DUTIES AS the
priest of Melchisedec order!
THE PRIESTS should have got
the people ready TO MAKE THE COVENANT with JESUS CHRIST!
But JESUS CHRIST Himself had
to preapre the people too!
Ps 76:2 In Salem also is His tabernacle, and His dwelling place in
Zion.
Ge 14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem
brought forth bread and wine: and He was the priest of the most high God.
Isa 33:20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities:
thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle
that shall not be taken down;
One could learn from the
above vss. that, Zion, Jerusalem, Salem, IS THE CITY OF GOD, IT
IS THE TABERNACLE OF GOD, THE HOUSE OF GOD WHERE HE DWELLS!—the LORD requires it to be a quiet
(peaceful) habitation! Jerusalem is a TABERNACLE!
Ps 76:2 In Salem also is His tabernacle,
Ge 14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem
THE KING OF SALEM
Is the KING OF THE
TABERNACLE!
HE IS THE ONE GOD!
IT IS A CITY OF SOLEMNITIES--
SOLEMN MEANS-- grave --serious --sober -formal-- sombre -sad
IT IS A PLACE WHERE SINCERE, SERIOUS WORSHIP SHOULD BE MADE through THE
HIGH PRIEST OF GOD!
If THE TRUE HIGH PRIEST
does not interfere in the worship pattern, THE PEOPLE COULD ERR UNDER
human high priests, AND MAKE
THE PLACE SOMBRE –the beautiful house of
God can become a sad, dark place!
WHEN IT HAPPENED GOD HIMSELF was
WRATH, AND is WORKING TO CORRECT THE
SITUATION!—
33
HE GAVE A SEVENTY YEAR TIME
PERIOD TO PROVE THEMSELVES, AFTERWARDS HE HIMSELF CAME TO SHOW THEIR ERRORS,
JUDGE THEM AND CORRECT THEM!
HE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY OTHER TO GLORIFY-
Isa
42:8 I am the LORD, that is My name; And
My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved images.
Isa
48:11 For My own sake, for My own sake,
I will do it; For how should My name be profaned? And I will not give My glory
to another.
(SO WE COULD BE SURE NO OTHER
SHOULD BE GLORIFIED IN THE CHURCH!)
PRIEST of MELCHISEDEC
order is then, THE ONE TRUE GOD!
THE KING OF GOD’S HOUSE IS
GOD!
King of Salem is God, JESUS
CHRIST!
He will maintain HIS TEMPLE–the creator
likes good things- Ge 1:4, 10,12,
18,21, 25, Ge 1:31 And God saw every
thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good.
HE WOULD THEN REQUIRE TO SEE HIS DWELLING
PLACE TOO TO BE GOOD!
34
JERUSALEM IS A TABERNACLE,
that will not be taken down—
THE LORD WILL NOT ALLOW
Jerusalem TO FALL!
Mt
16:18-- on this rock I will build My church,
and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.
(THE
ROCK IS CHRIST as shown below)
No one can destroy Jerusalem
HIS TABERNACLE, the LORD will work to SAVE IT!
Heb 7: 19
for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the
bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
20 And inasmuch as He was not made priest
without an oath
21 (for they have become priests without an
oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: "The LORD has sworn And
will not relent, ‘You are
a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek’ "),
22
by so much more Jesus has become a surety of a better covenant.
24 But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.
25
Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to
God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.(THAT IS
HOW HE LEADS GENTILES IN Zec 12: 8-10, MAKING SUPPLICATIONS TO SAVE ISRAEL!)
26
For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless,
undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens; Ps
68:33 To Him who rides on the heaven of
heavens,
27 who does not need daily, as those high
priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the
people’s, for
this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.
28 For the law appoints as high priests men who
have weakness, but the word
of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfected forever.
FOR THIS PURPOSE HE WAS MADE
LIKE A SON, HEB 7: 3.
35
Jerusalem will be corrected by
JESUS CHRIST--
Daniel prophesied of Jerusalem --
Da
9:16 "O Lord, according to all Your
righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem,
Your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of
our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people are a
reproach to all those around us.
DANIEL PRAYED TO GOD ABOUT SPIRITUAL ISRAEL!
THEY ARE SINNING AGAINST JESUS CHRIST!
Jerusalem is church--
Ac
8:1- Ac 11:22- church
in Jerusalem,
Ac
15:4 And when they had come to
Jerusalem, they were received by the church--Ga 4:26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the
mother of us all.
JESUS
CHRIST is head of Jerusalem the church-
Eph 1:22 And He put all
things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church,
Col 1:18 And He is the head
of the body, the church,
36
Isa
40:9 O Zion, You who bring good tidings,
Get up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, You who bring good tidings, Lift up your voice with
strength, Lift it up, be not afraid; Say to the cities of Judah, "Behold
your God!"
THE end time SERVANTS OF GOD (RE 11: 2-4) are to lift their voices
TO SHOW THOSE IN SPIRITUAL Zion “THE ONE TRUE GOD, JESUS CHRIST, THEIR ROCK”!
This
is because the leaders do not know their God!
Isa
66:20 "Then they shall bring all
your brethren for an offering to the LORD-- to
My holy mountain Jerusalem,"(WE HAD SHOWN HOW
GENTILES HAVE TO LEAD SPIRITUAL ISRAEL TO JESUS CHRIST).
Zion
shall be plowed like a field, Jerusalem shall become heaps of ruins, And the
mountain of the temple Like the bare hills of the forest."’-- Jer
26:18—JESUS CHRIST DESTROYS ALL ERRORS OF HUMAN WORK IN
THE CHURCH THAT DOES NOT PLEASE HIM!
Isa
2:3- Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of
the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we
shall walk in His paths." For out of Zion shall go forth the
law, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
When
spiritual people of Jerusalem are in captivity, they cannot sing songs of
Zion-Ps. 137: 3-6, they are in captivity in Babylon, and that captivity to be
destroyed, vs. 8, by JESUS CHRIST, by dashing little ones against the rock, vs.
9!
And
the rock is JESUS CHRIST,
De 32:4 He is the Rock, His work
is perfect: for all His ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and
right is He.
JESUS CHRIST IS THE ROCK-THE ONE TRUE GOD OF TRUTH-
BUT ISRAEL HAD FORGOTTEN HIM!
Isa 17:10 Because thou hast
forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of
thy strength,
Mt 16:18 And I say also unto
thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church;
1Co 10:4 And did all drink
the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them:
and that Rock was
Christ.
37
HEB 8: 1 - Now of the
things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such
an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in
the heavens;
2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true
tabernacle, which
the Lord pitched, and not man.
6 -But now hath He obtained
a more excellent ministry, by how much also He is the mediator of a
better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
7 For if that first covenant had been
faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
8 For finding fault with them, he saith,
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant-
JESUS CHRIST THEN IS THE MINISTER OF THE TRUE TABERNACLE!
WE ARE TO DO AS HE SAYS!
PEACE MADE
THROUGH HIS BLOOD
WORSHIPPING IN Jerusalem SHOULD BE PEACEFUL, PLEASANT TO
WORSHIPPERS.
Col 1:20 And, having made peace through the
blood of His cross, by Him to reconcile all things unto Himself;
Joh 12:27 Now is My soul
troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save Me from this hour: but for this cause
came I unto this hour.
THE CAUSE WAS TO
·
FULFILL THE OATH TO
GIVE PEACE Heb 7:21, Heb
7:1, 2,
·
FOR BELIEVERS TO
WORSHIP HIM WITHOUT FEAR, IN HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS,---to fulfill Mal
3: 3, 18.
·
TO MAKE THE NEW
COVENANT OF PEACE!
JESUS CHRIST HAD BECOME THE NEW HIGH PRIEST WHO IS FOREVER!
38
SO THE STORY
OF spiritual ISRAEL IS NOW COMING TO A PERIOD WHERE THE LORD HIMSELF IS RULING,
AND CARE FOR HIS SHEEP, as recorded in Re chap. 21, and 22!
A GREAT WORK
WILL BE DONE IN THE EARTH BY SPIRITUAL ISRAEL, LED BY THE HUSBAND OF SPIRITUAL
NEW JERUSALEM, CONSISTING OF SPIRITUAL ISRAEL!!
Tit 2:14- redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for
Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.
So ISRAEL should be
prepared to serve Him in these GOOD WORKS!
LET THE EYES OF ISRAEL
RESPECT THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL AND BE IN SUBJECTION TO HIM!
ALL
GLORY AND HONOR BE TO JESUS CHRIST THE REDEEMER OF ISRAEL!
CHAPTER
2 will discuss-- JESUS CHRIST TRIUMPHED OVER THE RULERS OF CHURCH THROUGH DEATH
ON THE CROSS.
