The earthly sanctuary services were appointed of God to help man know and understand exactly what God was willing to do for him. Every animal slain by the hand of the sinner was to be a miniature Calvary. It was to reveal to man the deep-seated enmity he held against God, but in the same instant to prove to him that God held nothing back, not even His Son, if by any means He could bring man to see his rebellion. It was in this way that God prepared the catalyst to break the proud and stubborn heart of man. Nothing less than “blood” could wash away such an awful sin as his, i.e., the will to kill God.

The Way the Truth and the Life

John 14:6  Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Dear Father

The height and length of this statement is breath taking. To even think how you could cause your Son to be all of the Truth and all of the Way and all of the Life is such a wonder. It is a statement that I have meditated upon often and been so blessed by.

To think that every truth in the Bible is connected to your Son. How important it is to know all the Truth otherwise we will not really know your Son.

I pray that you would lead me deeper into the knowlege of your Son and let the freedom of this knowledge come to me and be experienced in my life. Let it flow into my heart and flow out to others in the fruit of the Spirit. Then I will be joyful and loving and patient and kind.

Show me how the Sabbath, Sanctuary, Second Coming and State of the Dead are all connected to your Son and why this is important. They can’t be simply modular teachings but rather windows into the identity of your Son.

I have no idea how you put all this together but it is truly wonderful. All the truth in one person – Your Son

I praise you Father for such wisdom.
