The father’s order: chapter 2

I. The order of father and son.

I. The order of father and son.

a. In the beginning, the order of the universe was perfection. From the smallest flour to the high spinal bird, everything is in harmony-including relationships. But when sin entered the world, this natural order of perfection became chaos. Instead of perfection reproducing perfection, thorns begin to grow and showed perfection out.

b. Weeds and disease begin to spread as animals begin to pray on animal, locked into a shackle of sin call the food chain. Chaos was producing chaos. The perfection that was once natural, now took effort to keep. In the same way, our relationships require work. Just as we let’s pull the weeds so we must pull the root of bitterness similar not to devour one another.

c. We must begin again and learn and the so into the lives of others in order to reap a harvest of righteousness relationships. We begin with the order father and son.

d. It was through relationship with father and some that God intervened and promise a savior of the righteous scene of said. “And I will put enmity between the and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he shall bruise thy head, and thou shall bruise his heel” ().

e. Nine generations after Adam, we find God’s heart turned against his children because of their wickedness. “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thought of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord they had made man on the earth, and agreed came at his heart.” ().

II. Everything God does is from father to son.

a. This would have been the end of the sons of Abraham except that “Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.” (). God the son he can make a father! The Lord save Noah, his wife, his sons, and their wives. They were all say because they were the house of their father, Noah. Noah became a father to the human race, and the father and a father in ministry, when he offered sacrifice upon the disembarking from the ark.

b. God would later bless a man named Abraham, son of Terra, son of Shem, the son of Noah. Got race this man to be a father of a nation, “for I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him and they shall keep the way of the Lord” ().

c. From Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and 12 sons: 12 tribes, one nation. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were all fathers in the ministry and fathers to a nation. You not objective Psalms will fathers to tribes. The blessing of God passed from father to son.

d. 75 people went down into Egypt and millions came out. When Israel was in bondage to each of God’s heart turned towards his children. God looked upon the entire nation as he is some. All the firstborn of Egypt would die in Israel go free because “… The say of the Lord, Israel is my son, even my firstborn” (). This nation would be delivered by God through a father in the ministry named Moses.

e. Although God chose to give his promise to all the children of Abraham, the chose only one tribe to serve in his house.

f. The tabernacle was to be man and its services performed by one tribe: the tribe of Levi. Out of the Levites, one family, the light of Aaron, was chosen to serve as priests by entering into the holy place. Erin was established as a father to the present by Moses. The priesthood was also in order a father to son.

i. Aaron and his four sons served as shadows of the fivefold ministry gives in the church: “and he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some past stores and teachers” (). But all the Israelites were children of Abraham and worshipers of Yahweh only Erin in his generations after him to minister in the office of the priest. Talent intelligence education dedication and desire for the Lord our wonderful attributes in God’s family, but their normal qualifications for ministry. The only everlasting priesthood is through the generations. To be a priest. The father must be increased.

j. Not only will the offices of the high priest and priest filled in the order father the son, but the diaconate of the Old Testament, the Levites were also chosen in the same order: “and my brother and also the tribe of Levi, tried to buy father, breathe out with the, and that then he joined on TV, and minister under the: but thou and thy sons with the show minister before the tabernacle of witness” ().

k. The sons of Levi served on to the sons of Aaron. From playing music to moving furniture, the Levites served as helpers and assistance to the priest. No matter how menial the labor may have seen, the work was considered true ministry. Therefore, because the Levites were ministers, the basis of qualification for the ministry was being a set of Levi. Just as Erin had to be your father for you to be a priest, you cannot even dump the ashes from the brazen altar was your father was a Levite.

l. All mankind has fallen short of the glory of God because of their father, Adam. The salvation of the human race at the flood was by one father: Noah. All people of Israel were chosen by God from one father: Abraham. All the priests were from one father: Erin. Levites fool will from one father: Levi. Everything in God is from father to son. In a departure from God’s order is a departure from God.

III. A covenant has to be kept not merely paraded.

a. This order was perverted in the days of Eli the high priest. Light of the priesthood became darkened in Eli’s son-he and Phineas (called by God the sons of LL), stole from the offerings and use their office to have illicit sexual relationships. But these false predictions based a battle with the Philistines and the thought of the ark of the covenant was paraded before the Army uses the money the battle, they would surely be victorious.
