Easter 2023 -Part 5 - Hallel - 1st hour

Orderly father, we thank you for your great grace provision and thank you for the enablement that you have provided for us. The forethought of those who have gone before us to set, aside to purchase to develop this property that we might have a church to meet at Lourdes. A place for the foretelling and forth to of your word. The people might hear the proclamation of your word hopefully, clearly expressed. And clearly explained we would ask you a guide and leader in this time that we would each take that moment for correction if needed. We might find ourselves rebounding, and confessing any nonsense to operate in Fellowship. Through the empowerment of God, the holy spirit in our thinking, and in our concentration and exercising, those fruits of the spirit of which patients is often key. Me to understanding it takes a great deal of patience. Sometimes over decades to get to the bottom of something that we quizzed over in our thinking. It just doesn't seem to add up and then suddenly you let the let the Legos snap into place for us. So we pray that you would be doing that this this afternoon or this morning and I will thank you for your guidance and we thank you for the work in the ministry of the Lord. Jesus Christ upon which we are completely dependent. Lord not only for our salvation, but for the fellowship in for a spiritual life, now there is no empowerment apart for that, which is given through Jesus Christ. We are thankful in all these things, we pray in Christ's name. Amen.

I've had a few things going on this week. I had a wonderful outbreak of shingles on top of everything else. I have had shingles a couple of times before and just part of my disposition I'm not a get a vaccine for IT person but I do have some remedies that I've been able to use that have shut it down three quickly. So what for me it's an internal shingles. Which means it is I into the organs and into the muscles and that's where the pain is. And then I can tell by just swipe breakouts in the skin. So I've been dealing with some I don't know if it's the shingles or if it's just part of my recovery process, some intense pain and it's been very, very difficult for me to concentrate or think or do much of anything. So I do appreciate your continued prayers. That matter. I know you're praying for me and I thank you so much. Like I'm surprised at how many people are praying for me. It's just mind-boggling, talk to someone and they said, oh we are praying for your whole church is praying for your life. Where do these people even come from?

Play God puts out this radio broadcast and unknown ears all over the country or hearing.

Couple of nice benefits of having had the heart bypass in all that one of, which is now able to consume caffeine again without my heart joined with him about to blow up. So everything's back to normal on that front. So little tiny bit of caffeine help so I don't go overboard. Well, we are picking up where we left off from last week. We have been doing an elongated version of what we did a year ago. And a year ago, we went through the basically the 8 recorded pieces are parts of the Seder that are in the gospels. That God, the Holy Spirit via the apostles thought was pertinent for us to know about each of these phases. But interesting, we didn't give us all 15 or 60 G. He only gave us depending on, where do we count that first preparation or not? He gave us 17 or 18 of the phases, but wanted to review where we're at, just make sure you're on the same page and keep peanut. And I know that there is a greater racer over the outside of that door and it soon as people walk out the door. For everything you learn, just gets immediately blown away. So that's why you take notes so that you can come back and go. Oh yeah, he did that last week, right?

so, what a little bit of preface and no review from where we started out,

The process. It's all right, pointed out. Last year. And again, a couple times this year on Easter, it is an important issue for us. As we review The Upper Room account to pay attention to the Chumash, ER, or Jesus. The Christ is the sacrificial lamb. It is foretold in the passage lock. That, is that whole pass over supper? And it should make all the difference in the world. Then for us to know what the Holy Spirit captures to bring to our attention, concerning the occasion of the upper room and this Pascal seder for pisaq celebration, Not as we study yet, what's called out? Why was captured and recorded for? So, I can't think of anything more, ironic, perhaps, more informative than the God, man, himself, Emmanuel God With Us the Lord Jesus Christ. The saving Messiah, who is the Lamb of God foretold in, this passage is a hitter who is performing the in overseeing, the supper for his disciples as part of the Fulfillment of his requirement, to meet the label of the Lamb of God. Who is worthy to receive the sins of the world? Interesting, how many of us are able to step up and deal with the hard things? I mean, the real hard things. My heart thing is not necessarily your difficult thing in your difficulties or not necessarily mine. And some of us have the capacity to be shut down in our Thinking by certain circumstances. I see this in a generational sense, the generation who is going on before us tended, to be afraid of certain words in a way that we aren't and haven't been home since then, you can pull out the c word, the big cancer and tell someone they got cancer and their brains would just shut off. They would almost go into a catatonic sentence because there were so much Negativity associated with us since then. We've had so many breakthroughs in cancer management and modalities of care ways of being able to intervene understanding different stages of progression. Only thing such that has become actually pretty normal, man. It can be a part of many people's life and continue to manage and move through going forward. But to those individuals, when they hear that seaward, it can have that impact. There was also the d word, a divorce and that was a horrible hard when I'm in. A lot of people were absolutely shut down by that, but a couple of things have happened. We've gone through the change in our society where marriage was no longer important there. For divorce was no longer important into those individuals. In those who are affected by that, like the proverbial frog in the warming water. Not notice email. It's getting harder and harder until boiled to death. People in our society, lost track of that. Cuz they have, with many of the values of a society that is oriented towards the design. But God has placed, within the society's, when Society is get to the It's where they no longer recognize the Divine principles that is the point at, which they are on the downward slope. They are headed downward toward destruction. Doesn't mean I can't turn change direction. Go off to the side doesn't mean that they can't move in a different direction, but it means that they are on a course of Destruction. If it continues in the way that it is, those headed, we certainly seem to be seeing that in our society. Now, we seem every factor of Des Moines institutions, including nationalism. Nationalism has been under attack for such a long time now that many people just don't get it, they don't understand what it is. They see themselves as citizens of the world and so very desirous to save the world to save the planet and they don't even have to be mystical or green oriented or, you know, they I have to be Gayo worshippers worshipping the planet. They don't have to be wiccans who are involved in this Pagan druidic type of relationship with with a false worship. None of those things are even necessary. Just normal thinking individuals can let go of correct thinking and embrace a. I am a citizen of the world type of thinking, and when you have that, then you have the end of a Nation Nation requires that there be citizens of that nation. And when people no longer recognize themselves as citizens of that Nation, then the end has come upon them. There are other reasons for that but not nothing for us to get into you now. But in the Christ, here he is. In this situation, he is about to proceed through the process on which he knows, and he is in the gospel. We haven't captured within a few days. He is going to be on the cross and he will die and then he will be raised again. He's been proclaiming it. He's Proclaim. His entire Ministry, he's teaching his Apostles over and over again and yet they seem to almost refused to listen to him. The lack of capacity, a orientation towards structures of thinking that they hear what's being said, but they interpret it through their framework. Hey, I mentioned this recently on a chat. I was in with a group of people and I was explaining how I for me. So I have breakthrough. I had in conversations with my nephew who is autistic and we were talking about various things that he was keenly interested in theology. In the things of God and has constantly peppering me with questions, unending questions, Relentless unending? Never ever stops? Then there was a text messages to my phone. So he's constantly have these incoming messages and so I was able to sit down and chat with him at one point with Linda who is autistic where the couple of big breakthroughs in helping him understand what it meant to be autistic and how some of that affected his thinking, how that impaired, how he understood, what other people. anyways, one of these times I'm chatting with him and right just for us and I say cuz we were talking about things that I had been explaining prospects for the grace of God and I looked at him and there is just a I felt a disconnect like I wasn't somehow getting through, not the we can see into people's thinking but sometimes we can proceed, just buy West reflected on the space. You know, flickers of thought that go across and you can almost line them up with what you're saying and know what their reaction is. So we are who are in a teaching position, have to be, especially careful, very easy. I mean, I want to have eye contact with you but at the same time I don't want to not. Then I have a psychic ability but I don't want to invade your your privacy so well, that's why we jokingly say, put on your poker face when certain things come out. Usually a warn you if it's something I don't want to hear or see your reaction and Pregnant, give you the opportunity for privacy but in this case I saw it and I said what does grace mean?

And he says, Grace, he says, it means to be live, to be nimble. The ability to turn and move with the beauty. He was describing it the grace of motion, which is dancing. And for years, you've been sitting under teaching of people who are talking about Grace and the only understanding of Grace he had was mental illness. It never occurred to him, that it could be anything else. Whenever people talked about the grace of God, that's what popped into his mind, how God is gracious to us. He was an inside, the God has a way of just interacting almost with a dancers gentlemanly, you know, boys and ability to interact. The idea that it has to do with the undeserved favor of God completely completely absent in it. Always have been he never ever, ever had that idea associated with that term. I can't comprehend how much teaching he lost out on because he didn't have that corrected. So, part of the reason that we emphasize words and we make an emphasis on using certain vocabulary to associated with various thoughts because it gives us the ability to think and once we have the ability to think we can deal with what's going on. So the apostles apparently, like my nephew or others in similar situations, they hear the words. They hear him saying, I'm going to be crucified, I'm going to die. I am going to die and be raised after three days. This is the sign that I will give to you. That I will be like Jonah. It is the sign of Jonah. And after 3 days, I will be raised just

Without there being able to take it in. So here is Christ sitting with the apostles. You know, I

Just want to understand this more and more and the deeper I dig the more I find is actually there and I'm not talking about you know just trying to see things and trying to figure it out. I'm finding that there is more technical, relatable data and information in the text. That tells me more and more about what's going on in the more than I get the context of Christ about to be taken off, hold off to his death. I was at work and that is exactly what he's facing as he is teaching them about the land. That must be slain. The more it gets to me. and I mean that in the sense of I have to dig a little bit deeper in my understanding of the hypostatic Union of the person of Christ in the incredible doctrine, that is in his soul at this moment because Do we see the way that he ministers to the disciples here?

Going forward from the, from the upper room and go into the time and they moved out into the garden. And we have the explanation beforehand of you are the vine. And I am the I am the vine and you are the branches and he who abides in me and all these teachings and all this ministration that's happening, right man. I think is lost on so many theologians and we have people out there that I'm interacting with on a daily weekly basis were so concerned about getting the branches pulled away and tossed into the fire in various other things like that. They completely missed the contacts because they have their microscope on a Doctrine in which they have divorced, it from the very context of the passage where he's talking about fellowship with him. Because what is the Salvation of the Apostles as we move forward from this event? My salvation, I don't mean their Eternal salvation. I mean, what is that? Which redeems them and helps them and gives them resources. It is fellowship with the person, the teaching, the doctrine of Jesus Christ because they have seen him. They have seen the father. They know the teachings, Mel the begin to understand and then we have the outpouring of the holy spirit in the baptism of all believers into the Church of God or the Church of Christ. So we have the new beginning of the church age, all of this rests on what's happening in these few moments. These few hours he's giving all of his teaching but it is Really about the fellowship in the strength of the resource that they have because they are focused like a laser on Doctrine as they move forward and they begin to get it. Go to going to take all the teaching that they have in their soul in via the process of Epi medisys, we have God, the Holy Spirit, taking the teaching, the thoughts, the thinking, the data they've laid up begins to integrated into real cognitively aware spiritually, live reality as the church age starts. We have like 2:30 people meeting in the upper room. The outpouring of the Flames or tongues of fire that we see expressed on the heads of those individuals. And then they go out in their speaking in tongues and all the people are saying. What's going on? Why is everyone speaking in tongues and Weird stop. It would seem but not so much. All of that is contextual and it comes out of this moment, we're going to get some of that. Actually, I have decided we're going to do a Pentecost teaching on Pentecost, which happens to be May 28th. So we're just a few weeks away from it so I might stretch out the upper room teaching little bit more. I got a couple more things that I can flush out here that I would like to. And then we will begin with the with the Pentecost teaching on May 28th that made you feel one day or maybe a two-week saying and then when that's done and we'll go back to a regular Excursion Into the Book of James which we've been away from since December. So we'll get back to that. Which also means we need to have that six teachings on Sunday. 6s is on.

That's what I'm thinking. That's what I that's what I need to get everything out here. That needs to be expressed.

And the more you want me to express it in plain English as opposed to technical geek-speak. Then the more time that I need, because I can tell stories and I seem to connect with more people at the store, is probably just get into the technical exegesis and stuff. Then I get to the bathroom glazes over and make her snoring from various places and All of that. So here we have Christ, the point. I wanted to be making here. We have Christ.

Stepping up with poised to the greatest thing possible. The greatest stress, we know he would undergo and his entire life and Ministry facing off Satan. Deal. Really. I mean, He resisted he was held. There was a test, there's a big ton, it would be a huge task for us, but that was just a miniscule preparation for going to the Cross. His intention was clear. He knew where he was founded, he was headed to the hill to Golgotha, that's where he was headed in. So none of what Satan had to say, made a bit of difference because Satan was speaking to the wrong timeline. He wasn't speaking to the reality of where Christ was thinking. But when we have our physical resources strip down, as we all know, we seem to have less mental resources and less emotional resources and so there was Jesus stripped down and being tempted by them tested. So probably the worst physical mental, emotional, Soul situation, for Temptation that human being could be in. And that's We went to the temptation, but the good news was he wasn't operating based off of his emotions. His feelings with his bait, he's operating purely off of Truth. I was again talking to someone here, recently, this weekend, we were talking about the issue of you know how to deal with difficulties and stuff and they were asking for advice and I said, you know, hear something, my dad taught me when I was young Dad said, David.

he said, sometimes we feel emotions and we sing. We understand what's going on. But he says emotions, he said there's the appreciator of your soul, so when you're thinking the right thing and your emotions agree with that, that's good. That's what emotions are designed to do. But because we have a fallen nature, sometimes you're thinking the right thing, but your emotions aren't agreeing with what you're thinking with the doctrine, you're processing with, what's going on. And that's because the emotions are the appreciator, but they don't always appreciate correctly. Sometimes they are wrong and if the emotions are wrong we don't change. What's guiding us? We let our thinking be the engine in the front of the train and the emotions be the Caboose at the end of the train, you never let the Caboose. Steer the Caboose has no capacity to pull or to God So dad taught me this at a young age, I was 345 at the time that we had this conversation you know what? He just kept explained to me over and over again and I guess it's stuck has been with me my whole life. I've always from the moment that I came into salvation, actually about three three and a half or so, years of age, I've always known that Jesus Christ was that God. He is a Jesus Christ is my best friend that he dealt with the sins of the world in mind specifically and I could trust him forever and I wanted to be in a relationship with him forever. Never once in my entire life doubted that or had any thoughts to the contrary never ever do sometimes when I'm dealing with people who are saying, I don't know how to hang on, I don't know if I don't know how you can not know he's real, he is just open your eyes and look at creation and it was created, I mean, so many ways, we can see that he is real, but

Right to say Jesus Christ. Fully how bad in play, is he stepping into this situation? So that he the Lamb of God, himself taught the disciples about the ritual? They were going through that foretold the very work. He was about to fulfill in the next 24 hours. Now, as we reviewed before, let me remind you that, the Feast of the Passover is the first of the seven, holy seasons of the Hebrew scriptures. The Taurus. Are they called these seasons? Though? We would probably call them Feast that are prospective. But today, I made it to season, because it is located within the stretch of seasons and within the stretch of the year.

No, this is the only holy season. All of these Seasons or fees which is initiated prior to meeting with Yahweh on Mount Sinai when the law was given to Israel, this Passover, our passage came before the giving of the law and that's significant all of the other fees to Holy seasons were given with the law, let's simplify this. The Passover feast is not part of the keeping of the law of Moses or the law given on Mount Sinai. It is rather an ordinance and active before the Deliverance of Israel from Egypt to pre-stage to prime the pump, their spiritual world view. This should change everything and how they operate this ceremony preceded, the Deliverance of God's people through and atoning sacrifice. You see? That is how they were delivered out of Egypt. It was an atoning sacrifice who was represented on the doorpost on the lentils of their houses. Leviticus 23, verse 5 showed us on the 14th day of the first month at Twilight is the Lord Passover. So Leviticus claims that this is the day. This is when it happens the 14th day of the first month. I gave you before a chart that shows you the various months that we have. So we have 12 Hebrew months. We have the original pre-exilic name. That is what they are called prior to going off to Babylon. And then we have what they call them. Basically, they stuck with what the rabbis said and how they name things when they came back from Babylon. So we have two sets of names that you can see and you might get confused if you go from place to place. But the first month is abib and a beep is right here.

Habib. And we see it. An exodus 13:4. Exodus 23:15.

Exodus 34, 18. Deuteronomy 16:1. And then we also have in scripture reference to Nissan, which is what we took me here today that is how the Hebrews call the month today. They abandon the original Biblical name of the month of bead do may have gone with me Saint. Okay, so when we see that in Esther 3:7 so we have a reference to that in Esther Nehemiah chapter 2 verse 1. We have that reference to a Nissan so those are both exilic and post-exilic some situations. And The Season's, it's interesting because the Theses are laid out across the spectrum of time. The Nissan is in the season of what we call Spring. It's the first month of spring, it's the first month of the year and it is part of the latter rains and I'll show you what that means in the moment. It is part of the barley Harvest and it is part of the flax Harvest. All that is part of what is happening in the agricultural or the real world with surrounding Israel. The other isn't this false dichotomy the what the grocery store is did to us the ability to store things for a long. Long, long time has completely separated us from the, from the reality of the seasons. Around us so we can walk down any month of the year and buy pineapples or strawberries or whatever or they're just not growing around here any time they're imported from great distances. So there is a divorcing from reality that has happened in our time by the way, for your thoughts and you're thinking. When the Antichrist comes on the scene we're going to have a point at which there is no buying or no sewing without having the mark of the beast. Let me submit to you that, in some ways, what is happening is not so much about the mark of the beast. As it is about the complete cutting off and disenfranchisement from the world that was created by God, which we are to be a tune to. We are to be part of these agricultural seasons are part of the reality around us weird. Eating what is be grown. But the grade agribusiness is another force. Is, I've actually used it as a means of separating us from reality, in the more we're separated from reality, the more were able to be controlled And so you can't get this separated from reality food, unless you have the mark of the beast. Also, part of what we seen going on at same time as the destruction of one, third of the earth. We see all this agricultural land being destroyed. So, people are being shut off, and separated from having the ability to go out and get eggs from the chickens and milk the cow and, you know, harvests of Wheat, and that type of thing on the rump. So some interesting things to be aware of their some of our Bible prophecy leaders, tend to be leading in a hyper literal direction as opposed to being aware of how that is situated message through, which means the context, what is actually happening to the world as Society at that time. So we have three festivals that happened, right? One after another, we have Passover on the 14th of Nisan, then we have the Feast of unleavened bread, which we looked at. And that's from the 15th through the 21st, and then we had the Feast of first fruits, which is the on the 16th, we have. It looked at that and I may try to get that in here in the next week or so. So we've gone through that at least to some degree before we get to Pentecost. So then we have something that's called the later pass over which is a different Feast. It's a nickname that happens in the following month of Ivar and then we have

Pentecost. That happens at the 50 days after Passover, 50 days and then we have pain. But actually it turns out it is the greater fulfillment of what happens in the Feast of firstfruits. The Feast of firstfruits represents the person in the work and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He was resurrected showing that he is free from death and then he is free from the power of sand. There's nothing that's holding him down or holding him back and so that Resurrection shows, the appreciation of God, the God has been satisfied and then everything is proceeding for a plan. So when we get to Pentecost, 50 days later, it is actually part 2 is the piece that is attached to First fruit. It's another type of first fruits Feast, but we don't call it that it's called Pentecost called the Feast of Weeks because it's so many weeks away, and it's also called The Feast of harvest because that's when the major harvest. The next major Harvest happens. So to show you this in an agricultural cycle, The Boulevard on tour, Palestine, sorry for that main levantas, actually the entire area between the Euphrates River and the Mediterranean and the the mountains to the North and the Gulf of Arabia down below. So that entire section that we think of as the Middle East, the runs from Iraq, all the way over to Israel and all the way up to Turkey and down to Egypt. So, and what we have, I know it's kind of hard to make out here, but let me show you the way we have our Year. So,

Basically, it's right here. So March about when we have Easter because it's on a lunar cycle. Is when we have the beginning of Passover, is on the 14th of Nisan. So that's when that occurs and then Pentecost is

Right there. Pentecost in the further first fruits or happening out there. So

But what you want to be aware of is we have the seasons that are going on. So we have the the rainy season Here today. And this is running basically from September all the way through March much like it does here. Okay. And then we have the dry season which is basically May through September, just like it is here. So, basically following the same upper Northern Hemisphere at the patterns and then within the Rainy Seasons we have. You heard referred to as the The early rains. The winter rains and belay trains. Those are just staying in the we have partitioned off this rainy season in to the early, the middle on the lake. And so, when you see those references in the Bible, that's with me and talked about and then we have, and by the way, the, the Passover is in the era or the time of the late rains, sole trains up until we get to the dry season, and that's right, when Pentecost happens. So, that's right. Exactly. When the fields are drying up and you can Harvest everything that, you know, the Wheaton, the grains are fully up. The rain is no longer, lifting a beating them down, or they have a chance to stand up. And so also, we have the season of routes that occurs at the same time. So that's how it seemed for me. who made biblical seasonal perspective, you also have heard throughout scripture references to the

the time to plow, which is in the early rains, the time to plant. Which is getting into the winter rain, and then the Harvest which goes from the late rains, all the way through the fall. So again, just like we do, here is the time to prepare a time to plant and a time to harvest. And this is all part of what is being thought of it, as part of the Agricultural Mill, view of Israel, even at the time of Christ. So the time of Christ, it's not your relevant that we have, the passage or the Passover when it happens. It's actually very pertinent to the landscape of what's going on. And we have these early fees that happened. Remember that we have?

Who do this? Then we have the fall Feast, which happened here, so we have the first portion of the Fulfillment. So this is the first Advent Feast here when we are the second Advent.

These that are happening here. So we are the Feast of trumpets the day of atonement and the Feast of Tabernacles that all the cute, cute picture of Corps occur. Play the decide where I live.

I have a cursive having an awful lot of English pronunciation in my head and it starts to come out and I start to correct it and it doesn't fight get filter sometimes. So we are the second Advent, which will be the Fulfillment in the trumpets. Then we have the Great Awakening, it is the time, it is the announcements and then we have the day of atonement, the price will be paid, everything is reconciled. And then we have the Tabernacles, which is actually the time in which God Tabernacles with man and we understand that, as the Messianic Kingdom or the millennial Kingdom. So that is Pretty exciting. Tabernacle. So first Advent, we have all these things going on and then here and then second Advent, we're going to have these things going on. So for those people who were in the room with Christ, it's time of the upper supper. The upper The Upper Room discourse the supper. The Pascale event that they were having their at the Seder. They may have had all of this jumbled together in their head. Still waiting for all of it to happen. Not quite clear. How it's being separated out. Even though Christ was pretty clear about it. From Matthew, chapter 12 and 13, moving forward. He's like, I've got a plan. I've been rejected by Israel, so we're fulfilling the first portion of this plan. Second portion is not going to come, until I come back and then I rule and then you will sit on your 12 Thrones. So we actually ended looking at that last week.

7/15 steps of the Seder, parade of the 16 steps or recorded by the gospel writers, interspersed among a narrative. The cow, what's happening in the upper room, depending on your perspective? That can be quite horrifying quite amusing, quite insightful, quite ironic Towing in many, many, many ways. We just get this amazing insight into the interplay of what's Happening. Probably, in more ways than we do, from all the rest of the Gospel put together. We have all this inside as to, what's happening right here with Christ and the apostles and the inner changes in her, you know, the interactions between them. so,

In our review, we have reviewed the preparation. So I've listed here what we've reviewed so far in terms of the difference Portions of the identified dinner. So we had the preparation, which was the going and getting her, the she taking of the temple. How many sheep? You know, I'm only killed all that preparation. The getting-ready of the location Etc. So we have the preparation and then we have the Kiddush, which is the blessing where the Lord picks up the first cup, and praise a blessing over the ceremony and over what's happening there, giving insight to the disciples as to what they should be paying attention to, but they do. And then we have the thoughts, which is the cleansing. We are there to be ceremonial plans but that turns into a foot washing because we have such a Ruckus amongst the apostles, they are so out of it, it's almost like the Lord has to Slap him in the face, a little bit to get their attention. Just so they can come back to the reality of the situation. And then he ministers to them with an incredible Grace. When we have the car pause, which is the bitter herbs to taking him to the bitter herbs, which has to be a reflection of the bitterness of what it means to be in the land of sin. In the land, that does not belong to God. You know, that place of darkness and judgment synonymous as Egypt is to the darkness of the current, what we call Cosmos diabolicus, which is the world ruled over by Satan right now, it's a dark place. And so we have corresponding to that. We have the first mention of the Betrayal that happens there and so that Association is there for Christ. He is letting them know. Not only are we taking in bitter herbs but I have a bitter herb right here. Better one for me. That is there is a betrayer. I mean, we have that your thoughts which is the breaking of the matzo and we explained how that is the setting aside of pieces of matzah for the ending of the

The ending of the mule and the ceremony in which the Christian or completed you say that is actually a picture of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and interesting. So in that taking out and we have the three different portions explicitly laid out by God, to Moses, three different areas, three pieces of bread, going in and the center one is to be pulled out and broken in. That is the picture of the Lord Jesus Christ in his hypostatic Union, being broke for us, and then we have the wrapping where we again, have a taking of the sum

some of the different events and actually has to do with seeing again, the darkness what it was like in Egypt and so they are preparing a fruit and canned items to go in the meal which are of a darker color to remind them of the bricks in the mortar and what they had to do, what they were engaged in and they're wavery, I'm in in the Egypt and then there is again a dipping into the horseradish because they want to be blasted and awaken with this understanding of what it was like to be slaves in captivity and then we have the third cup which is what we reviewed last week and the third cop is a

Really a picture of a things to come, but the third cup is also the cup of Deliverance.

I miss is the cop in which the Lord said,

This cup is the New Covenant in my blood which is shed for you and Luke 22 verse 20. So we saw that the first two cups or drunk before dinner and then the cup of redemption comes after the me on this cup is the New Covenant, his blood and establishing of a New Covenant is being specified or called out by this third cup. Strangely, it has been part of the ceremony from the very beginning, all the way back in Egypt. This idea that there will be a new cup, a couple Deliverance, a cup of blessing. The New Covenant, the Covenant of Peace has been there and it has been Amplified in through the process of progressive, revelation, meaning that step-by-step point-by-point. If we go through town, I'm God reveals more and more of his plan gives us more and more inside, more details, more specifics more. Prophetic events are lined up so that we can understand what was started out and stayed in the very 16th or maybe what we might think of it as an incomplete since it was never incomplete was just never fully detailed out in those details. Come later, because part of what God is doing is weaving together a tapestry of Revelation, but exalts, the person in the nature of himself, the Lord Jesus Christ. So we have an out working in the way that scripture is set up before I said, actually glorifies God and so we should study it from that perspective. With an understanding, the God is glorified, the more we study and see how he is caused. Things to come out as we go back and pull apart some of the weaving. Some of the things that we think that we know we find out what they knew at the time and sometimes helps us to see how God is expressing his glory moving forward. So this third cup man has been part of Israel's history, they think it is the cup of redemption, just looking forward to when they get yanked out of that, you gypped cross over the Red Sea and their enemies are dealt with and they have Deliverance. But it is not, it is actually. Speaking of take that, as a picture of Israel, as a whole, when Israel is yanked, out of this world, in the enemies of this world and just like the Red Sea came in and destroyed all of the army of pharaoh. We find that in the end of the tribulation at the Great War with a company of over 200 million foot soldiers, from the East, coming into the situation, we have. The exact same situation. All those who are opposed to Israel are destroyed in a mighty Overture, a great Cascade of death, and destruction to all those individuals. So that strangely, the red blood is said to be as high as the bridles of the horses meeting that we had, we started out with the Deliverance of Israel to the Red Sea and we have the same thing happening during the during the tribulation. We have Israel destroyed or rescued via a Red Sea of blood. I think the parallel is worth noting.

We should be aware that the model of Deliverance is there that God delivers Israel and when we get to, the end of the tribulation, it will be God, delivering Israel again. And then all those, who believe on the Lord will be delivered at that time as well. When we move into the New Covenant, which is the, that which happens after the Deliverance. Do we have a lot of people in Christianity right now who want to be taking us through a Deliverance type of a reality. They want us to have a sense. We are delivered now and they want to call upon this New Covenant saying that we are the New Covenant and our Christianity is based on the New Covenant MMA. Go over to Hebrews and they misuse a few verses and they drawed all together. And they think they have a pretty solid idea and they do if you toss Israel out of the mix, Because the New Covenant is for Israel. We was all of the Earth or beneficiaries of the New Covenant because that new coven is provided for by the atoning work of the Lord. Jesus Christ, his intervention He deals with the sins of the world. And the result of the sins of the world packing his servant, he is chosen, that is Israel. Both in the Old Testament and the New Testament support of the covenants, part of what we see work through and the covenants in the abramo Covenant, we see it. And in the davidic Covenant, we see it in the Mosaic Covenant. We see it, but we have a promise specially the Mosaic Covenant. I think it's most obvious. But number one, those who bless Abraham's seed those who bless Israel will be blessed those who curse them will be cursed. But also we see that connection of responsibility that those who are Israel. You turn away from the things of God who turned away from the commands of God, who don't keep the land who turned to Idols, who violate all of the points of his coming. And he says, if you do these things, I will bless you. Just a simple list of things to do, bring a note, bring in the Harvest, bringing your first fruits, make your make your Prosperity available to those around you. We have a huge issue in our country with the homeless with people who have varying issues. What they all are at seems no one can receive there was a time when those people who are that situation were, you know, where provided for, and we actually had mental health hospitals, and places of care that people could go to. And then we had a wonderful set of and I'm using the word wonderful here to see schiffli or sarcastically.

Journalistic, reporting the came from one Geraldo Rivera. The changed the landscape are dealing with these individuals in the United States because these hospitals, according this reporting were horrible. Places in the people were placing the great burden. So we have this moving forward, I get rid of the hospital to get rid of the hospital to get rid of the hospitals. With all that has happened across the nation. Kind of like what happens after I get rid of the police, you see the results? You see what's going on? Those people who could be helped, who could be intervene. I'm have lost that opportunity that capacity and so that has been moved away. Well, Israel has gone through that as well and they've made their decisions and they've lost a lot of opportunity and it will not be restored to them. Again until that great, a Salvation as a nation and that Fellowship as a nation is restored to that because Jesus Christ delivers them again, through again, ocean of blood. And again, will bring them into a Promised Land the same way in for reconfigured, geographically, reconfigure, topological e, reconfiguring in terms of sin and so many other things that his New Covenant will open up and progressed from there and that we don't have to be distant observers. We actually get to participate, we will be there. We will not be ruling and raining over Israel, Israel, but we will be ruling and rainy with Christ over all of the Gentile Nations and being involved in that process which is ultimately a process of worship. Our Lord and our God.
