H E B R E W S . 9

1 Now first Covenant had rules about worship and the sanctuary here on earth.


2 For there was a Tabernacle made, and the first area in this tent was called the Set-Apart Place, where the lampstand and the Table of Showbread was offered.


3 And behind the second veil was a room called the Most Set-Apart Place.

 

4 In this special room was a golden altar for burning incense, and the Ark of the Blood-Covenant, overlaid with gold. Inside this Covenant Ark was a golden pot of Manna and Aaron’s Rod—the rod that miraculously budded and grew leaves. Also in the Ark were the flat tablets of stone with the Ten Commandments on them.


5 Above the Ark were the Cherubim of esteem, overshadowing the atoning place of the mercy seat. But we won't discuss this right now.


6 So, having prepared everything in the Tabernacle like this, the Priests went into the first room every day to perform their worship duties to Alahim .


7 But only the High Priest could go into the second room, and only once a year. Also, he could never enter that room without taking blood with him, which he offered for himself and for the sins of ignorance the people committed (without knowing they were sinning).


8 Now Alahim's Set-Apart Spirit uses these two separate rooms to teach us that the way into the Most Set-Apart Place was not open while the first Tabernacle was still in existence.


9 This is an example/parable for us today. It shows that the gifts and sacrifices that the Priests offer to Alahim are not able to clear anyone's conscience or bring about perfection.


10 For these gifts and sacrifices are only about meat and drink, special washings, and rules about the outward fleshly body, which Alahim made His people follow, until the time of His New Way (of setting things straight).


11 But Yahusha has already come as our High Priest of the good things to come, not serving in an earthly Tabernacle (like those other Priests did) but in a much better one. And unlike that other tent, this one is perfect, not made by hands and not of this Creation!  


12 For Yahusha entered the Most Set-Apart Place once and for all, not using the blood of bulls or goats, but with His own blood, He entered and redeemed us (set us free) from sin forever.


13 For the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer (cow) were sprinkled on those who were no longer pure enough to enter the place of worship (the blood and ashes made them pure again — but only their bodies).


14 So how much more will the blood of Yahusha achieve in us? For He offered Himself (through the Eternal Spirit) as a perfect sacrifice to Alahim. So His blood makes us completely clean from the evil we've done, giving us a clear conscience so that we can worship the living Alahim.


15 And because Yahusha died to redeem His people from their sin (against the First Covenant), He is now the mediator of a New Blood Covenant between Alahim and His people, so that those who are called and chosen can receive an Eternal Inheritance.


16 When someone dies and leaves a will (covenant), there must be proof that the one who wrote it is dead.


17 For a Covenant means nothing while the one who wrote it is still living. It is only valid after that person’s death.


YAHUAH PROPHESIED THE NEW THROUGH JEREMIAH, KNOWING FULL WELL HE WAS TO DIVORCE AND METAMORPH IN THE NEW.


18 That's why blood was needed to begin the First Covenant between Alahim and His people.


19 Firstly, Moses told the people every command in the Torah Law. Then he took the blood of young bulls and mixed it with water, using scarlet wool and a branch of hyssop to sprinkle the blood and water on the book of the Torah Law and on all the people.


20 Then he said, “This is the blood of the Covenant that Alahim commanded you to follow.”


21 In the same way, Moses sprinkled the blood on the Tabernacle and over everything used in their worship.


22 For the Torah Law says that almost everything must be made clean by blood, for without a blood sacrifice there can be no forgiveness of sins. 


* FORGIVENESS/REMISSION = TO SEND AWAY

* DAY OF ATONEMENT - NATIONAL DAY OF JUDGMENT

* 2 GOATS: ONE SLAUGHTERED, THE OTHER A SCAPE-GOAT ..

* SLAUGHTERED GOAT'S BLOOD CLEANSED SANCTUARY ...

* SCAPE-GOAT (ie 'THE GOAT FOR GOING AWAY') ... 

* SCAPE-GOAT KEPT ALIVE TO TAKE AWAY NATION'S SINS ...

* YAHUSHA IS  THE SLAUGHTERED GOAT (IN HIS DEATH) ...

* YAHUSHA IS THE SCAPE-GOAT (IN HIS RESURRECTION) ...


23 These things are merely copies of the real thing in Heaven, and they had to be made clean by animal sacrifices. But the real thing in Heaven must have a much better sacrifice. ONLY YAHUSHA'S BLOOD!

BLOOD - WATER- OIL - FIRE

"HEAVEN AND THE 'HEAVEN OF HEAVENS' CANNOT CONTAIN YOU SO HOW CAN THIS HOUSE THAT I BUILD?

24 And that's why Yahusha went into the Most Set-Apart Place (not the man-made one, which is only a copy of the real thing) ... He went into the Heaven, and is there now in the presence of Alahim to help us.


* SIN BEGAN IN HEAVEN SO HEAVEN HAD TO BE CLEANSED!

* "MYSTERY OF INIQUITY" BEGAN AT HEAVEN'S THRONE. (2 Thess 2)

* JOB 25 "THE HEAVENS ARE NOT CLEAN IN YOUR SIGHT" ...

* DANIEL 8 SPEAKS OF THE "CLEANSING OF THE SANCTUARY.."

* EZEK 28: DUEL PROPHESY OF TYRUS` KING & ALSO SATAN!

* SATAN FELL LIKE LIGHTNING WHEN THE LAMB APPEARED!

* SATAN HAS NO ACCESS TO THE MOST SET-APART PLACE!

HOW MUCH MORE WONDROUS IS THE ATONEMENT OF YAHUSHA THAN THE BLOOD OF ANIMALS (WHICH ONLY CLEANSED THE WORLDLY SANCTUARY PATTERN). NO BLOOD COULD CLEANSE THE HEAVENLY SANCTUARY FOR IT NEEDED THE BETTER SACRIFICE OF ALAHIM HIMSELF IN PHYSICAL FORM. EARTH NEEDED THE BLOOD OF A PERFECT MAN TO CLEANSE IT AND THE HEAVENS NEEDED THE BLOOD OF A PERFECT ALAHIM TO CLEANSE IT. THEREFORE THE NEW COVENANT AND NEW SANCTUARY (OUR BODIES) MUST HAVE A NEW SACRIFICE OF YAHUSHA'S NEW BLOOD !

25 For Yahusha went into the Heaven, but not to offer His blood many times over, like the High Priest offers blood again and again (and not his own).


26 For if Yahusha had offered Himself many times, He would have needed to suffer many times over, ever since the foundation of the world. But He came to offer Himself (at the end of the ages) once and for all time, taking away all sin by offering Himself as a sacrifice.


27 Everyone must die once.

    Then they are judged.


28 So Yahusha was offered as a sacrifice one time to take away the sins of many people. And He will come a second time, but not to offer Himself for sin, but to bring deliverance to those who are waiting for Him.

SO WE CAN SEE THAT ALL PROPHESIES WERE FULFILLED IN YAHUSHA'S BODY AND SANCTUARY "TEAR DOWN THIS TEMPLE AND IN 3 DAYS I WILL RE-BUILD IT" . . . THEN PAUL TELLS US THAT `OUR BODY IS NOW THE TEMPLE' . . . BLOOD-BOUGHT AND BLOOD-SPRINKLED DAILY, MAKING US THE ULTIMATE OF HIS NEW CREATION ORDER. WE ARE TOLD TO OVERCOME BY "THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB AND THE WORD OF OUR TESTIMONY" (WHERE WE'VE BEEN AND WHERE WE'RE GOING) ... SO THRU THIS PROCESS OF ACTIVELY WALKING PROGRESSIVELY THROUGH THE FEASTS IN YAHUSHA'S FOOTSTEPS, THE ROYAL BEHAVIOUR OF MATURE-LOVE IS WHAT WILL TRANSFORM US INTO VESSELS FULL OF OIL, CLOTHED WITH RIGHTEOUSNESS AND READY FOR THE ETERNAL MARRIAGE SUPPER. 

DID YOU REALISE ALL THAT YAHUSHA'S BLOOD ACCOMPLISHED BOTH IN HEAVEN AND EARTH ??
