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.

What is the divine model for human relationships?

Just ran across this article about how the intra-Trinitarian relationships are the divine model for human relationships.  Although the article is glaringly Tritheistic, it should be of interest to some, as it raises some interesting questions.  This article was probably intended as supportive evidence in favor of the issue of the ordination of women during the 1995 G.C. session the same year.  The following is a sample quote from the article:

In  summary, Jesus demonstrated the principles by which members of the Godhead relate to Each Other—mutual consultation, cooperation, delega­tion of powers, and empowerment.  Jesus went a step further by stating that the love and unity within the Godhead is the model for suc­cessful human relationships:  ".  .  .  that  they may  be one, even as we are one."

How do members of the Godhead relate to One Another?  Does this apply to human beings  BY BEATRICE S. NEALL
