Why would God revert back to the pre-fulfilment times prior to when Jesus became the final sacrifice?
Thanks. The three day and night propmised demonstration of the lamb slain from the very foundation came to pass within the six days he did work ..(a promised demonstration) of the finished work
I would offer. The foundation of temples made with the dying hands of mankind . It began when the unbelieving Jews gathering themselves in jealousy of the surrounding Pagan nations and demanded a visible king .
God gave them over to do that which they should not asked . They had no desire that a invisible king to reign over them. . this was until the time of the first century reformation The whole period of time there were kings in Israel (abomination of desolation)
Christ used that time period as a parable a shadow of good things to come The shadows became sight the government restored to the first order Judges, as apostles sent with male and female prophet preaching the the gospel The same government today
1 Samuel 8 4-11 Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah, And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations. But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the Lord. And the Lord said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them. According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee. Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them. And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked of him a king. And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots
Note. . "To signify" use the temporal things seen as a sign in order to reveal the gospel understanding . In that way comparing the literal temporal historical with the unseen eternal spiritual things of God In that way they must be mixed in order to receive the gospel rest
Hebrew 9: 8-11The Holy Ghost this
signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing: Which was a
figure for
the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that
could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience; Which
stood only in
meats and drinks, and divers washings, and
carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the
time of reformation. But
Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle,
not made with hands, that is to say, not of
this building;
The valuable tool for rightly dividing the parable as prophecy in that way the Holy Spirt teaching us how to walk after the things of faith
Hiding the spiritual; ; understanding from the non redeemed
2 Corinthians 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the
things which
are seen are
temporal; but the
things which
are not seen are
eternal.
No mixing no gospel rest .I would think learn what it means how to mix as he instructs. The mystery j key
Hebrews 4King James Version4 Let
us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left
us of entering into
his rest, any of
you should seem to come short of
it. For unto
us was the
gospel preached, as well as unto
them: but the
word preached did not profit
them, not
being mixed with
faith in them that heard
it.
Many good examples of faith in action spoken through parables the signified, poetic tongue of the Lord
