The Millennial Temple<br />
slaughter and flesh of the sacrifices. (See #25 in the Pictures section<br />
for the sacrifice preparation area)<br />
The cross of Messiah was not a pretty sight. During an age of peace,<br />
the sacrifices in the Millennial Temple will be a needed reminder of the<br />
high price that was paid for our redemption. It will also be a constant<br />
reminder that if we desire to be like Jesus there is a sacrifice to make.<br />
Although salvation is a gift from God, conformity into the image of<br />
Christ as a mature son of God will require that we make some<br />
sacrifices. If Jesus is our example, how can we expect to be in His<br />
image and yet ignore the daily sacrifices that it takes to be like Him?<br />
5. Israel’s Land Divisions<br />
“It shall be that you will divide it (the land) by lot as an inheritance for<br />
yourselves, and for the strangers who sojourn among you and who bear<br />
children among you. They shall be to you as native-born among the<br />
children of Israel; they shall have an inheritance with you among the<br />
tribes of Israel.” (Ezekiel 47:22)<br />
The map on the next page shows the estimated land portion that is<br />
promised to Israel during the millennial reign of Jesus on earth. This<br />
information is derived entirely from Ezekiel 45:1-8 and 47:13 - 48:35.<br />
A few of the cities listed by Ezekiel do not exist today, and their exact<br />
historic location is uncertain. Therefore, the boundaries in the<br />
following map may not be exact, but they are relatively accurate based<br />
on the latest archeological and historical evidences.<br />
In Numbers 34:1-12, the Lord spoke to Moses almost the exact same<br />
boundaries for the land of Canaan as was shown here to Ezekiel; even<br />
using most of the same cities as boundary markers. Some crossreferencing<br />
with Numbers 34 was used to derive the map boundaries.<br />
On the page after this map is a detailed blow-up diagram of the “Holy<br />
Portion” of the land. This Holy Portion is located in the center of Israel<br />
around the area of modern day Jerusalem and is pictured to scale on the<br />
map as well.<br />
