00:14 Welcome to "Battles of Faith."
00:16 We're your host Ivor and Atonte Myers, 00:19 and we're with Power of the Lamb Ministries. 00:22 You know, something that is a more recent 00:26 invention is called a GPS, 00:29 you can have it on your phone, 00:30 you can have it in your car, 00:32 and it helps you to find your way. 00:35 Sometimes, we have found that they are not perfect, 00:38 they'll say make a left and the left 00:40 will be going off of a cliff, so they are not perfect. 00:43 Man didn't make it, but it really does come 00:46 in handy when you don't know where you're going. 00:49 You know we have found that God has provided 00:52 all of us, the world, the simple world 00:55 with a GPS to help us to find our way home. 00:59 And we like to call it the blueprint. That's right. 01:02 A blueprint is put in place to help you like 01:06 a map, to help you and guide you in the way 01:09 that you should go and we find 01:11 that the Bible does have a blueprint. 01:12 And there is a reason why God had to give us 01:15 a blueprint and maybe we can recap what we have 01:19 found in previous programs and why God 01:22 even had to give us a blueprint. 01:24 That's right, Atonte. 01:25 A GPS is used to help us find the way 01:29 especially when we're lost. 01:31 And as we look at our safety, 01:33 we're gonna see that God has indeed given man 01:36 a GPS, whereby he might know the way to salvation. 01:41 So what we're gonna do is, 01:42 we're gonna do a little recap as you said 01:44 and we're going to see why it is that 01:46 God had to give us a GPS. 01:48 So let's go back to the Book of Ezekiel Chapter 28. 01:52 And again we invite you at home to get 01:53 your Bibles and to open up with us, 01:56 because we're going to see how God's plan of salvation 01:59 is unfolded in this GPS. 02:03 Exodus 28 beginning with verse 14, 02:07 the Bible describes a fallen angel 02:10 by the name of Lucifer who was created perfect, 02:13 but eventually sinned and cause a rebellion in heaven. 02:17 Verse 14 reads, "Thou are the anointed cherub 02:20 that covereth and I have set thee so, 02:23 thou wast upon the holy mountain of God, 02:25 thou hast walked up and down 02:26 in the midst of the stones of fire. 02:28 Thou was perfect in thy ways from the day that 02:31 thou was created, till iniquity was found in thee." 02:35 We understand that this covering cherub 02:38 is so called because what this angel did 02:43 was cover the Ark of the Covenant. 02:47 This was found in the Old Testament Sanctuary, 02:50 which was a miniature model of 02:52 the "Throne Room of God," 02:54 there was the Ark of the Covenant 02:57 that was found in the most Holy Place 02:59 and above the Ark was the Mercy Seat 03:02 whihc represented God's throne or His law. 03:05 You're looking at image on the screen right there, 03:08 but you'll see there that there were 03:09 two angels on either side of that Ark 03:13 and those are described as covering cherubs. 03:15 So, what we know about this is that Lucifer was 03:18 a covering cherub, one that stood in the very 03:20 presence of God, in the very midst of 03:23 God's throne protecting or defending if you will 03:27 the law of God, that where cover means 03:29 to protect or to defend. 03:31 Well, the Bible says that Lucifer sinned. 03:34 And the definition of sin is transgression of God's law. 03:38 As a result, he was cast out of heaven. 03:42 We also know that when God created 03:44 planet earth that, that He created man perfectly 03:48 and subject to His law, to His government. 03:53 But we understand that Lucifer came 03:55 to the garden in the form of a serpent and he tempted 03:59 Adam and Even, and they two sinned 04:01 or rebelled against God's law. 04:04 When a person sins or rebels against God's law, 04:07 it puts them in a certain condition? 04:10 We'll say that, that condition is 04:12 a llost condition, a lost condition. 04:17 So God gave the blueprint, 04:20 so that we could find our way, exactly. 04:22 If you're lost, you need to find your way. 04:24 Exactly. What is that blueprint? 04:27 It is none other than 04:28 what the Bible calls, the sanctuary. 04:31 Psalm 77 verse 13, in fact says, 04:35 "Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary." 04:40 God's path to salvation, His direction back to heaven, 04:46 man when he sinned, he was put out of the Garden of Eden. 04:50 God's plan of salvation is to lead man back to his presence. 04:56 And we find, we'll find that as we look at 04:58 the sanctuary blueprint, we're going to see 05:00 that that's exactly what God did. 05:02 He showed man the very way in which he could 05:06 return to the presence of God. 05:08 So, what we're gonna do now is, 05:09 we're gonna take a look at that sanctuary 05:12 from a bird's eye view, if you will. 05:15 And if you were living in the Old Testament times 05:18 and you were a Jew, who had been living 05:22 in that time where Moses was 05:24 instructed to build the sanctuary. 05:26 You would see basically a tabernacle that had 05:30 six articles of furniture in it. 05:32 Now on your screen, you'll see those 05:34 six articles of furniture. 05:36 The first two of those articles 05:37 were found in the outer court. 05:40 When you went into the outer court, 05:41 you came at to something called 05:43 the Altar of Sacrifice. 05:45 What happened there, Atonte? That's where-- 05:47 Well, that's where the children of Israel 05:50 would bring a daily sacrifice. 05:52 So they would bring a lamb and bring it to 05:56 the sanctuary and the priest would take that lamb 05:59 and sacrifice that lamb for their sins 06:01 on the Altar of Sacrifice. 06:03 Actually they sacrificed the lamb, 06:05 the priest was there to officiate. 06:06 But that's where that sacrifice took place. 06:10 Back on the screen, if you were to go 06:12 a little bit further into the sanctuary, 06:13 you would now see an article of furniture called the Laver. 06:17 And because, of course, when a lamb is 06:21 sacrificed it's, you know, there is blood 06:24 and that's kind of a messy situation. 06:26 So this is where the priest would wash 06:29 their hands, and so in that Laver was a mixture of blood. 06:31 That's right. And water. 06:32 Water, blood, and the priest had dirt 06:34 or anything on them, they had to wash 06:37 before they entered into what was called the tabernacle 06:41 proper or the sanctuary proper. 06:44 Advancing a little bit further, 06:46 you now came to a compartment called the Holy Place. 06:51 The Holy Place had three articles of furniture in it, 06:54 and it was a tent as it were within the tent. 06:58 In this Holy Place, there was the 07:00 Table of Showbread, and that's basically 07:04 where the priest would bring in 12 loaves of bread 07:09 every week, and they were changes out weekly 07:13 just representing those loaves of bread. 07:16 If we would've to think of what these articles represent, 07:19 the loaves of bread would represent the word of God. 07:21 You remember, Jesus said in Mathew 4:4. 07:24 "Man shall not leave by-- Bread alone. 07:26 Bread alone, but by every word that proceeds 07:29 out of the mouth of God. 07:31 Right in the centre of the Holy Place was 07:34 another article of furniture called 07:36 the Altar of Incense, Incense. 07:39 And that's where the priest would do what, 07:41 they would burn incense. 07:44 Right, if we burn incense on a daily basis 07:48 and that incense was like a sweet smelling fragrance. 07:51 We know in the New Testament 07:53 that that incense represents, what? 07:57 Prayer. The prayers. 07:58 In Revelation 8. That's right. 08:00 It talks about the prayer of the saints. 08:02 That's right, so all these articles of furniture 08:04 basically are symbols of greater truths 08:08 that we find in the New Testament. 08:11 In the same Holy Place, you had another 08:12 article of furniture called the 08:14 Seven-Branched Candlestick. 08:16 You'll see that right there to the left of your screen. 08:19 The Seven-Branched Candlestick, 08:21 which gave light in the tabernacle. 08:25 And Matthew 5 tells us that, you know, Jesus says-- 08:31 We are to be the light of the world. 08:33 That's right, the light of the world. 08:34 So you're seeing all these symbols, 08:36 all these articles representing different 08:39 truths in the New Testament. 08:41 Finally, you, in this sanctuary you would not, 08:45 if you would advance, you would go into 08:46 another compartment called "The Most Holy Place." 08:50 That was divided, that divided the Holy Place 08:53 from the Most Holy Place, 08:55 there was a curtain in between, 08:56 and when you went into that Most Holy Place, 08:58 that's where the actual presence of God was, 09:02 the Shekinah Glory, the light if you will. 09:05 There was a mercy seat representing his throne, 09:07 the Ark of the Covenant representing the law of God 09:11 and the foundation of His throne 09:13 and then you have those two covering cherubs 09:15 which represented the angels in the very presence of 09:19 God's throne and God's midst. 09:21 So here you have a bird's eye view of the sanctuary. 09:26 And I find that again Psalm 77:13 telling us 09:31 that God's way is found in the sanctuary is just 09:35 absolutely mind blowing. 09:37 The sanctuary basically is the entire plan of salvation, 09:44 the entire story of salvation 09:46 from the fall of Lucifer, down to the redemption 09:50 of mankind, the ultimate redemption of mankind. 09:53 It's all right there in the sanctuary. 09:56 And I think something interesting, 09:58 if we could look at our graphic again 10:01 when you look at the actually even where God had them 10:05 place the articles of furniture, actually symbolizes 10:10 this blueprint or Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. 10:14 That's right, if you take a look you'll see 10:17 that the way the articles of furniture 10:18 are setup, if you were to join outline 10:20 around the articles of furniture, 10:22 you would find a cross. 10:24 It's almost as though Atonte, 10:25 thousands of years before Jesus came to this world. 10:30 The sanctuary prophesied that 10:32 Christ would die on our behalf. 10:35 He would die on a cross for our sins. 10:38 So the gospel is right there in that 10:42 Old Testament Sanctuary, in that blueprint. 10:44 And in fact, if you were to look at that chart again, 10:46 I know, we're referring to the chart 10:48 over and over again, but we want you to get 10:49 used to this, to this GPS, okay. 10:52 If you were to look at everywhere, 10:54 everyplace in which an article is, 10:56 Jesus was wounded in that very place. 10:59 That's right, the Altar of Sacrifice placed 11:02 down at the bottom. 11:03 We know that he was nailed on the cross 11:06 at His feet, there was a wound there. 11:09 We know that He had a crown of thorns placed on His head. 11:12 That's right, Which is a wound, and also when you're 11:15 on a cross, you've to be nailed by your hands 11:18 and so with the candlestick, with the candlesticks 11:21 was placed and Altar of Showbread, 11:24 Table of Showbread is placed that's also where 11:27 His hands would have been. 11:29 And then we know He died of a broken heart, so-- 11:31 It's the Altar of Incense. The Altar of Incense. 11:33 And it's interesting, Atonte, because, 11:36 you know, the Altar of Incense represents prayer, 11:38 our communion with God and when Jesus 11:41 felt that His communion with God had been cutoff. 11:45 "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?" 11:47 You're not answering me. 11:48 We're not dialoguing or communing as we have 11:52 been so used to doing when Jesus felt that 11:55 that was cutoff, it broke His heart. 11:57 That's right. And He died. 11:59 But we actually, I'm looking at the chart one more time. 12:03 There is one more piece of furniture and that's 12:06 the Laver, that's right, and what happened-- 12:09 Right. What did the Roman soldier did? 12:10 Yeah, Jesus died, the Roman soldier, 12:14 one of the Roman soldier came and pierced his side 12:17 and out came blood and water, right. 12:20 And so, it's amazing that the sanctuary, 12:22 articles of furniture actually show not only 12:26 Christ death on the cross for us, 12:28 but in every place that an article is, 12:31 there Jesus was wounded on our behalf. 12:33 It's interesting, Atonte, 12:34 as we look at this content, we look at this 12:36 sanctuary, this blueprint, 12:37 this GPS that when God had instructed Moses 12:43 to build the sanctuary, he said in Exodus 25:8, 12:46 "Let them make me a sanctuary 12:48 that I may dwell among them." 12:52 If you were to look at that sanctuary 12:54 from the outside, you would see a building that looked 12:59 very plain, you know, brown covering just 13:04 nothing attractive about it, 13:06 but inside that tabernacle 13:08 was the very light of God, the Shekinah Glory, 13:12 the very presence of God. 13:15 In the same way, Jesus when He comes to this earth, 13:21 in fact, I believe its John 2:19, 13:24 where Jesus was speaking to the Jews and He said, 13:26 "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it up 13:30 again in three days." 13:31 And they thought He was talking about, you know, 13:34 a literal temple, He was talking about 13:36 the temple of His body. 13:37 So Jesus makes this correlation that 13:40 He is that Old Testament Sanctuary. 13:43 He is the sanctuary embodied. 13:49 When Jesus was born, the Bible says that His name 13:52 would be called Emanuel, meaning-- 13:55 God with us. God with us. 13:58 You look at that baby, you saw nothing 14:00 attractive, nothing spectacular, 14:03 but just like that tabernacle 14:04 in the Old Testament, inside that very natural 14:09 normal looking baby was the very presence of God. 14:15 In fact, John Chapter 1 tells us, 14:19 I believe it's verse 14 tells us that, 14:23 "In Christ was the life, 14:25 and the life was the light of men." 14:26 That's John 1:4, and then verse 14 says, 14:30 "That he dwelt among us." 14:33 Just like God says in the Old Testament, 14:35 "Let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them." 14:38 Christ Himself came, the Glory of God embodied 14:43 in flesh, so that we could behold Him and not die. 14:49 We find that the sanctuary then not only 14:52 points to Christ birth and Him coming as a God 14:57 in the flesh, it points to His death. 15:01 And if we even go further, 15:03 we'll see that the sanctuary actually 15:06 illustrates Christ at every point 15:10 or at every article it illustrates 15:12 some aspect of Christ life. 15:17 Okay, I thought you're gonna add something there, 15:19 but let me just go on and add this as well, 15:22 because I think it's important for us to 15:23 understand that each 15:25 article of furniture represents something. 15:28 We covered a little bit earlier, 15:30 but the Altar of Sacrifice, 15:33 what is that mean to us and for us? 15:36 Well, just like this lamb had to be 15:41 sacrificed on a daily basis 15:43 and it points the lamb, points to Jesus. 15:46 Jesus is the Lamb of God and He came and died 15:50 for our sins, we're to die daily, that's right. 15:53 And allow the blood of Jesus to work in our 15:57 lives on a daily basis, His sacrifice for us. 16:00 That's right, and it's interesting because 16:03 that Altar of Sacrifice, 16:05 it represents a work that you and I must do. 16:09 We must die daily. We must pick up our cross. 16:14 Take up our cross, the Bible says and follow Christ, 16:17 but it also points to Christ Himself 16:20 because John 1:29, when John is baptizing 16:28 in the Jordan and when He sees Jesus 16:31 and this language can only, you know, 16:34 truly be understood when you understand this blueprint. 16:38 So when John the Baptist sees Jesus, 16:41 He says to Him, John 1:29, it says, 16:46 "The next day John sees Jesus coming unto him, 16:49 and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, 16:52 which taketh away the sin of the world." 16:56 When you understand this blueprint, this GPS, 17:00 you see exactly what God was trying to teach 17:02 the children of Israel, way back there in the wilderness. 17:05 When they were told to bring a sacrifice, 17:07 an animal, a lamb, they were also told to 17:10 lay their hands upon their head of that animal 17:14 and they would have confessed their sins 17:16 on the head of that animal. 17:18 And as they did this, what was happening was, 17:21 they were transferring their sins 17:23 from themselves to the innocent animal 17:26 and then the animal was slain. 17:29 This is exactly what John the Baptist was 17:32 speaking about, when he said, 17:33 "Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away 17:36 the sin of the world." 17:38 So we, what we're trying to do is, 17:40 we're trying to get you to trust the blueprint, 17:43 trust the GPS because we're gonna find 17:46 in later programs that it is a failure 17:48 to understand the GPS, the path of salvation 17:52 that leads so many people, sincere people even 17:56 to be lost, to be confused about the plan of salvation. 18:00 Or to believe things that are not truly 18:02 in the word of God, that's right, that's right. 18:04 So we have here the Altar of Sacrifice, 18:06 we now understand what that means. 18:08 What about the Laver? 18:10 The Laver, the Laver is where once again we see 18:13 the priest would wash their hands and their feet. 18:16 And when we think about it, well, 18:18 what could that represent in the New Testament? 18:20 Washing water, I mean, what comes to mind. 18:24 Well, even Jesus before His ministry started, 18:27 He had to be baptized. That's right, that's right. 18:29 And so the Laver represents baptism. 18:31 That's right, exactly. Baptism of the Holy Spirit. 18:33 That's right, it is-- By the Holy Spirit. 18:34 By the Holy Spirit and even down to that 18:38 water whereby, whereby we are cleansed, 18:43 Jesus is the water of life. 18:47 So not only He is the Lamb of God, 18:50 but He is the water, whereby we are cleansed 18:54 from our sins as well. 18:55 He is that water of life whereby when we take it in, 19:01 we experience a new birth, a new creation. 19:06 So we also must be baptized. 19:10 We can't just, you know, say I accept Christ 19:12 and leave it at that and say, okay, 19:14 great, I accepted Christ, I confessed Him with my mouth, 19:17 that's all it takes no. 19:19 The blueprint shows us that not only must 19:21 we accept Christ, we must also be born again, 19:26 we must be baptized, okay. 19:29 So now we move, we advanced into the Holy Place. 19:33 And in the Holy Place, once again we found 19:35 those three articles of furniture, 19:37 the Table of Showbread, the Altar of Incense, 19:40 and the Seven-Branched Candlestick. 19:43 It is interesting that in the Book of John 19:46 Chapter 6, Jesus says of Himself, 19:50 I am the bread of life. 19:56 Again, Atonte, these things begin to fall 19:58 into perspective, when you understand 20:01 the blueprint and you understand what He is 20:03 referring to, it begins to make 20:05 all the sense in the world. 20:07 He is basically saying, look, 20:09 I am these things that the Old Testament 20:12 Sanctuary was pointing to. 20:13 I am the blueprint and if you understand 20:17 the Old Testament Sanctuary, it is near impossible 20:21 to be fooled, to be deceived, 20:24 to be misguided, we know that that's exactly 20:26 what the devil's trying to do. 20:28 So He says, I am the bread of life. 20:32 We're to eat of His flesh, 20:34 and when we eat of His flesh, what do we have? 20:36 We have life, we have life. 20:39 And so a a Christian so far, 20:41 what we can see is we have to first die to self, 20:44 that's through the power of God, 20:46 be baptized by the Holy Spirit, 20:49 but through water and now 20:51 at the Table of Showbread, we realize, 20:53 Jesus is the Bread of Life, but He is the through, 20:57 it's also representing the word of God. 20:58 So as Christians we have to be studying the word of God. 21:01 That's right, that's right. 21:03 We now come to the Altar of Incense. 21:06 And the Altar of Incense found right there 21:08 in the centre of the Holy Place represents 21:11 that as we said in Revelation Chapter 8, 21:14 it represents the incense, the prayers of the saints, 21:18 the prayers of the saints represents intersession. 21:21 It is our communion with God. 21:27 Something interesting about 21:28 the Alter of Incense is that the incense would burn 21:32 and the smoke would go up and it would go up 21:34 over the vale where the presence of God is. 21:36 So it's communion with the God. 21:39 There is a vale there, but almost like 21:41 when we pray we can't literally see God, 21:45 but by faith we know that He is hearing our prayers. 21:47 Exactly, exactly we know that our prayers should be 21:50 ascending like that sweet smelling incense and, 21:54 you know, that's how God views it. 21:56 When we speak to Him, when we pray to Him, 21:58 He says it's like sweet smelling incense 22:00 in my nose, you know, but even above 22:04 and beyond that the Bible tells us that 22:07 Jesus Himself is that sweet smelling savior to God. 22:13 In fact, in Ephesians Chapter 5 verse 1 and 2, 22:16 the Bible says, "Be therefore followers of God, 22:19 as dear children, and walk in love, 22:22 as Christ also has loved us, 22:24 and has given himself for us an offering 22:28 and the sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savior." 22:33 Sweet smelling savior, so we find that Christ is 22:35 not only the Lamb of God, 22:38 He is not only the Water of Life, 22:41 He is not only the Bread of Life, 22:43 but He is also the Sweet Smelling Savior unto God. 22:49 I find it interesting, Atonte. He is our intercessor. 22:51 He is our intercessor, you know. 22:55 I find it interesting that there are so many people 22:57 that say the Old Testament, 22:59 we don't need that, we should do away with that 23:03 and the sanctuary, oh, yeah, 23:05 that's definitely Old Testament stuff. 23:07 But if we were to understand why God had 23:12 given the sanctuary to mankind because remember 23:16 in that sanctuary is the way. 23:19 Satan's work is to get us and to keep us lost. 23:25 So I think that the thing that Satan would 23:28 hate most for us to understand is that blueprint. 23:32 He would hate for us to have that GPS because 23:35 someone comes along and says, 23:36 I don't know this has happened to us. 23:38 We've been in some strange place 23:39 and we're for directions we pulled over, we someone, 23:43 you know, hey can you help us and they say, 23:45 yeah, you know, all you have to do is just, 23:48 go down to the street here, make a left at the light, 23:51 make a couple of rights here, make another left, 23:53 another right, go straight, 23:54 go down two miles, make a left, right, left, 23:56 right and then you'll be right there. 23:58 And we're like, okay, this guy sounds like 24:00 he knows what he's talking about. 24:02 And what happens, we follow those directions 24:04 to a 'T' and then you get to the place 24:07 where you thought you're trying to go 24:08 and you realize you're lost. 24:11 The guy himself didn't even know 24:12 what he was talking about. 24:13 And he thought he did. And he thought he did. 24:15 Well, God is not a guy. Amen. 24:19 He is not a human being that he should lie. 24:22 When God gives us the GPS, 24:24 when God gives us this map-- Didn't make a mistake. 24:26 This blueprint, He doesn't make a mistake, 24:30 He is showing us and what He is saying is, 24:32 if anyone comes along and tells you, no, 24:35 you don't have to do this or you don't have 24:37 to include that, you don't have to go this way, 24:39 you can know without a shadow, 24:41 without a doubt, in fact, 24:42 we have a blueprint map in front of us, 24:44 it actually folds out like a map 24:46 and you know, that's exactly what that map is. 24:50 This map shows us the whole sanctuary diagram in the plan. 24:53 God is trying to open up before us a map 24:57 that shows without a shadow of 24:58 a doubt His plan of salvation. 25:00 So Christ is the Lamb of God, 25:03 He is the Water of Life, He is the Bread of Life, 25:05 He is the Sweet Smelling Savior. 25:08 What about that Seven-Branched Candlestick? 25:11 He is the Light of the World. He is the Light of the World. 25:16 Without Him we would be in darkness, that's right. 25:20 What we're trying to get you to understand 25:22 as you watch is that this sanctuary 25:25 is absolutely full of the gospel. 25:28 And of Jesus everywhere. 25:30 And of Jesus everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. 25:33 And we're just skimming the surface, 25:35 you know, right now. 25:36 We're gonna go deeper as we continue the program, 25:39 but the sanctuary is it covers Jesus. 25:43 Christ, in fact, Christ says, I am the way, 25:47 the truth, and the life. 25:48 No man cometh unto the father, but by Me. 25:52 What He is saying is that I am the path. Yes. 25:54 But Psalms 77 says, "Thy way, O God," is where. 25:59 In the Sanctuary, so when we look at the sanctuary, 26:01 we should be seeing Jesus all overly. 26:05 Amen. What about the law of God. 26:08 We're going to the Most Holy Place 26:10 and there we find the Ark of the Covenant, 26:12 that's where the law of God is. 26:13 And Jesus said, think not that I am come 26:15 to destroy the law, I am come to fulfill. 26:18 He says, I am the law personified, 26:20 I live this law out. 26:23 If you look at the description of the law, 26:25 you're looking at the description of Jesus Christ 26:27 who kept that law perfectly. 26:30 He is also our mercy, He is God in the flesh, 26:37 He is that Shekinah Glory, 26:39 and so our time is quickly running out, 26:42 but we see here, we hope that you've seen 26:44 that this sanctuary represents Christ, Christ, Christ. 26:50 And if we truly want to understand Christ, 26:52 we must truly understand this blueprint, this GPS. 26:57 And if something is truth from the word of God, 27:01 we should be able to see Jesus all over it, that's right. 27:04 Everything that we teach Jesus 27:06 should be the center and this blueprint, 27:09 center and this blueprint, the sanctuary 27:10 is Jesus in His truest form, just all of the things 27:15 that He has come to do, so that we can be safe, 27:17 so that He can show us the way. 27:19 And we can find our way back to heaven. 27:21 That's right, He wants to lead us 27:23 back into the very presence of God. 27:27 Man sinned, he broke God's law, 27:30 and was put out of the Garden. 27:31 And it's interesting, God in the 27:33 Book of Revelation 22 verse14. 27:35 It says, "Blessed are they that keep His commandments, 27:37 that they may have right to the tree of life 27:39 and may enter in through the gates into the city." 27:42 The sanctuary is the GPS that guides us back 27:47 into the very presence of God. 27:49 And we hope that you have been blessed 27:51 by what you've learned today and we've a more to come. 27:55 That's right, you're not gonna want to miss 27:57 future programs, because we're gonna be going 27:59 deeper into the blueprint, the GPS, 28:03 the sanctuary, so that we can continue 28:07 to show God's love for all of us. 28:09 Until next time, God bless. |
