All Discussion PAGE 1406

Asking for strong protection, deliverance, healing and most importantly repentance/salvation (those not saved) and also the Lord's intervention for the little one (severe sleep problems, bed wetting, emotional abuse). Asking this also for all others in need. May the Lord protect and help the people of Ukraine.

The eighth day. It would appear; with Pentacost being on the eighth day (7 weeks plus one day) that there is some precedent in the O.T. account (verse 1) and the last verse (the fire coming down from heaven and consuming the offering) that this is symbolic to what happened after the tongues of fire came down in the Book of Acts on Pentecost. The sacrifice was acceptable-this was as the commentary suggests here the first formalized sacrifice for the nation which was as Christ's offering acceptable.

It is interesting that there was an offering for Aaron alone (the calf); and one for the people

(the goat). He also had a peace offering (bullock and ram) for the people; as well as the meat offering (apparently flour cakes); along with the wave offering (breasts and shoulder) in verse 21. First of all; there were all types of offerings in one ceremony. Secondly; only one animal was needed for everyone-normally there were numerous sacrifices going on for each person's sins. The only other case I am aware of (I think with Samuel or in Judges) where only one animal was sacrificed..probably when there was no temple and there had been a long period of neglect of ordinances in the land. This situation also occurred with Solomon's Temple initiation of prayer when he was still faithful to the Lord and finally built the Temple that David had attempted to start. Ultimately, the Son of David was to be Christ Himself; and obedience is better than sacrifice. The Lord would in Isaiah state that he was weary of the sacrifices; the incense; the new moons and other things that had become ritualistic rather than with a heart devoted to the Lord. Those rare occasions when the nation was faithful at least externally it was able to make leaps and bounds forward.

Mr. Fairhurst,

Thank you for clarification on the poetic nature of Job 21:24. It was really helpful.

Dear Gretchen, If Bruce is the man God has selected for you, this relationship will come to pass as it seems that you and Bruce have met and communicated to one another a few times. So, like FREE said, ask God to help you relax and lay your desires for Nruce totally at Jesus' feet and believe that Your best life is in the Lord's hands, not one made to happen by your will and efforts.

I will pray for you.

Far Jesus' calm Greychen's heart and do not let this desire for Bruce consume her life and energies. Lord, teach Gretchen to look to You whenever she thinks of Bruce and occupy her thoughts with You instead. Show her how to practice being in Your Presence always so she can be attuned to your will and your plan and your purpose for her and for Bruce. May both Gretchen and Bruce have a concerted willingness to agree to and follow You plan. We pray that this plan includes Gretchen and Bruce having a loving relationship together with You as the Master and Upholder of Such a relationship. Give Gretchen the patience to wait upon You as she occupies her time with the work Younhavbfor her to accomplish each day. We ask this in Jesus'. Name. Ameb

Yes, Adam

Let's pray earnestly in faith for the duration of this war. May it be shortened and put down with many people being able to escape harm

Amen

Proverbs 3:5-6-

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."

God is good,, Amen!

MUKIIBI MUSA,

Jesus says in Matthew 19:24 "I'll say it again-it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of A needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!"

God of Victory, sometimes I feel like every endeavor ends up in failure. No matter how much effort I put in, I seem to always wind back up in the same place. I am broke and without the means to provide for myself or my family. I desperately need to see a change in my life. Help me to find success. Illuminate my mind so that I can see where I am messing up. Help me to continue to live virtuously with integrity. Above all, restore my faith so that I do not give up. I know you will provide everything I need! I pray to the most Holy One! Amen.

Stay Strong in God (.)

I got it wrong. In Leviticus (chapter 4 or 5 I think) there is a mention of the perpetual fire of the sacrifice that was NEVER to be put out day and night. THAT was what I believe finally went out around AD 70. It would be an extrabiblical text. Clearly, when the curtain rent after the death of Messiah the inner sanctuary was accessible to all believers through His death and subsequent Resurrection. It would seem that the further sacrifices would no longer be effective at best; perhaps there somehow was some protection until that generation passed before the inevitable judgment came in time and space. We are reminded of Hebrews here where Christ ever intercedes for us at the right hand of God for the propitiation of our sins (may be one or two verses).

In the sacrifices; it is also interesting that His blood covers the mercy seat in heaven; and it is certainly possible that in Isaiah where He returns with garments dipped in blood (also in Revelation in Armageddon)-that could literally be the blood of His sacrifice. That would show that we are either covered by His blood or our blood will be required (or explains the verse of falling on Him or the ROCK falling on us).

Could you send me the links to the articles that you read on Yashua ministry being a year.

Thanks

Well said Mishael.

After 42 years of marriage we still chose to be kind to one another, to speak honestly, to speak reasonably, and to speak encouragement to each other.

We laugh a lot and when we disagree we try to stay I topic without name calling, manipulative words or emotional displays to get our way, with the aim to talk it out, came to a conclusion or agreement or understanding of the other. We have had our ups and downs and hardships, but we choose to love each other each day and determine to tightly keep our vows to our partner and to God to stay together as one and to be handle the future of the other with care and deep commitment to be together all of our lives.

We also have been bless with very

Compatible personalities and that has helped us fuze our lives together peacefully.

For my husband and marriage, I am thankful and give all the glory to Jesus.

Yes Mishael

Those of us who study to become teachers rarely dream to face what is happening now in our schools. We enter this field to teach children and help them become good citizens. And as Christians teachers, we are indeed missionaries in our actions and demeanor in our teaching positions. In the public schools we are not there to teach the Christian faith anymore than another is a teacher to teach Islam, Buddhism,or any other religion to children that are not our own. But we are outward expressions of our inward life in it shows. Over my career I had many parents ask me during conferences if I am a believer in Jesus, and I can say "yes". These were so happy that their child had a Christian teacher, even JW and Mormons!

We should indeed pray for teachers.

Just to expand a little on my comment, I notice that Abraham saw the two manifestations of God together in the dark of night when the covenant of the land was made, while in Exodus the two manifestations always appear separated by day and night in Exodus as far as I am aware. I am not sure what that difference means, but it reminds me that the Spirit of God was over the waters in the dark when light is first spoken into being and then the separation of day and night occurs in the first day of the current creation.

Abraham's covenant of the land is given to his seed, which Paul says is Christ. In Christ, God's Word and His wrath are once again united at the cross where the New Covenant in Christ's blood is established. Coincidence? New creation? Just something to ponder.

Wonderful Nadia

Praise God for His grace and mercy to you. Thank you for sharing

Beautiful

Thank you for sharing.

Rich

Good job explaining the nature of Jesus as being fully God and fully man in one person. Two natures in one Person-divine and human.

From my studies, this is classically taught and affirmed as completely orthodox. Also, part of that orthodox teaching says that the two natures of Jesus are united but not mixed together to form a one new nature. The hypo static Union is a centuries old term used to describe this about Jesus, making Him absolutely unique in all of the history of the world.

I was reading the other day about the Kenosis of Jesus from Philippians 2 (I think) where it speaks concerning Jesus "emptying Himself". This, too, is a doctrine that is hard to understand, too, and is often misconstrued. I'm away from my computer, do when I get back home I can explain this more.

Glad you are here. Rich, your comments are appreciated.

In Job 21:24 Job is poetically showing how little can be discerned by looking at the outward state of a man. Men die in the midst of perfect health and ease, fully satisfied with ample food and good things, as Job once had been, or they can die in the midst of sorrow and want, as Job currently found himself. Outward sight is a poor judge of what God thinks.

A male having breasts filled with milk most likely refers to a man who from the moment of his birth had a mother with breasts full of milk that amply nursed him and cared for him tenderly and ever attentively until he was fully weaned. This may extend to a future wife that he was able to provide for so that his children received the same care. The verse says that the man being described is an individual who lived a life that never knew want and saw the only the best life had to offer that made his bones full of marrow right up to the moment of his sudden death, or in Job's case his sudden downfall in the eyes of his friends.

Rich,

I think you dos just fine in your post. It gives us food for thought

Actually, Rich, you comment was really good. Thank you for bringing us this interpretation to consider.

Hope you have a good day.

Thank you for Sharing!! That is an Amazing Testimony. No matter how bad the mess up, he is ALWAYS there waiting on us to Repent, and he NEVER stops loving US!!

I was thinking of the initial part of the Exodus and later on after the Tabernacle was completed. This would correspond also to the later building of the much more ornate and sizeable temple under Solomon; which indeed is probably the last time that there was such a presence there outwardly visible. It is said at the time of AD 70 and the fulfullment of the judgment of the Lord on Israel that was to happen before that generation passed that there were supernatural events. I believe at that time there was some sort of continual burning candle that went out if I am correct about that.

Today; I was comparing the bowl judgment when no man can stand in the inner court of the HEAVENLY temple until the judgments were complete. I don't know any other passages that compare with Exodus 40 where even the most godly person; or the Levite priest sanctioned to enter the Holy of Holies annually was not allowed in there. In Revelation; it shows a sort of finality; just as it did to the Egyptians at the finale of their judgments and just prior in the Dead Sea. It is noteworthy that in the seal and trumpet judgments; prayers came up as incense before the Lord. It would seem that at the consummation of events the Lord acts in this way. It is noteworthy that the rebellion of Israel was the only thing that took that glory away; as God had and still in fact retains certain covenant promises. Mercifully; now with Christ His Spirit dwells within our body; i.e. His Body or Tabernacle and we are "sealed until the day of redemption." (Ephesians). He has kept His face hidden for our own good; for in all His glory no man can stand.

I'm new at this commentary stuff; it is helping me study the Word better. I'm certain others can give more detailed responses. I didn't have a theme here that I put any real time or study into; it was just a thought.

Agape. Rich P

To be clear, my previous comment are only meant to correct the error that asserts that Christ was not fully man as originally created, or that asserts that Jesus could not come in the flesh without being sinful. I agree with the doctrine that Christ is fully man (prior to the fall) and fully God in the mystery of the hypostatic union. These two complete natures exist in Christ as a single individual. In so far as anything I have said can be taken as a contradiction or denial of that doctrine, that is not my intention and my comments should not be taken as a full defense of the doctrine. My comments are subject to correction should it be shown that I chose my words or expressed myself poorly on this long debated subject.

Psalms 121:1-2

I will lift up my eyes to the hills from whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, who made Heaven and Earth.

First of all, there was no inherent stain of sin in the flesh when Adam and Eve were first created. Had Adam and Eve never eaten of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and had children their children would have been unstained by sin, even though they would have been born according to the flesh. If Christ became flesh in the same way Adam did or apart from Adam's will, which alone made sin an inherent part of him, he could be fully flesh and without sin.

Inheritance is passed down from male to male in all ancient societies. Adam is excluded from being a father of Christ passed down by natural inheritance because He was held responsible for the fall and bore responsibility for Eve, who only existed through Adam. Adam was her head under God. Eve on the other hand is promised a woman like her without the natural right of headship or inheritance will bear a seed like Adam's, but unlike all other sons she will bear, he must be her son alone and must establish a new headship directly under God that was never under Adam's headship in order to establish a new lineage free of Adam's sin.

Christ is our second Adam. He is fully man come in the flesh in the likeness and image of God without sin like Adam originally was and not subject to Adam's sin or headship. The minimum I cay about Christ's genes is that His Y chromosome, which made him male, was directly from God's Spirit, not from Mary, and never passed down from Adam's Y chromosome through any sexual act or act of human will that could tranmit Adam's sin in the exercise of Adam's will to Christ's flesh. Since Christ is a male, that grants him the same rights of headship and inheritance that Adam had over Eve that He can pass on to all who are born of His Spirit through the woman created for Him and through Him by God that is subject to His headship, His church. His flesh is our salvation and His Spirit is our inheritance. Separate one from the other and all of us are still in our sins from Adam.

Praise the Lord for the many comments and praise reports declared on this platform. Just a few notes to help us in our walk with the Lord Jesus Christ. Since the fall of the first Adam the human heart was never pure to begin with. All who came into this world came as the Lord said with "... heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked..." When we trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour, we are given a new heart. Eze 36:26; 2 Cor 3:3

In our reading of Jeremiah 17, the rulers and people were told to keep the Sabbath. Seems pretty easy, except to truly keep the Sabbath in a manner that is pleasing to the Lord would really mean strictly following the rest of the commandments. As a Jew, they would have to know everything that went to the preparation and executing the proper etiquette of the Sabbath to please the Lord. It would be tantamount for me to know who my Lord God is in order to worship Him in Truth and in Spirit. Other wise my worship of the Lord in attending a church service would be meaningless and would not give my God the glory or praise He so richly deserves. Hebrews 10:25

These comments were not meant to hurt anyones feelings. Just to help in our discussion. God bless everyone. May the Lord bless our nation as we learn more of Him and apply the wisdom of Christ in our lives. February 24, 2022
