<strong>Sons</strong> <strong>To</strong> <strong>Glory</strong><br />
what is good; and what does the Lord require of you: <strong>To</strong> do justice,<br />
and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.” (Mic. 6:6-8)<br />
We conclude therefore, that the animal sacrifices and other offerings<br />
which are given in the Millennial Temple will serve as object lessons<br />
for the spiritual sacrifices of a heart that is pure, cleansed and sanctified<br />
in praise and thanksgiving to Yahweh God. Walking daily in justice,<br />
mercy and humility are the sacrifices which God really desires from us.<br />
2) Admittance into the Temple (44:1-9)<br />
“And the glory of the Lord came into the temple by way of the gate<br />
which faces toward the east.” (Ezek. 43:4)<br />
Because the Lord enters the temple by the eastern gateway, no man<br />
shall enter the temple by this gate, but it shall be closed (44:2). The<br />
“prince” is the only one who is allowed at certain times to enter into<br />
this eastern gateway by the vestibule of the gateway to sit and eat bread<br />
before the Lord. (The prince will be discussed further in section 5 -<br />
Ordinances for the prince) Everyone else must enter by either the<br />
northern or southern gates and, “whoever enters by way of the north<br />
gate to worship shall go out by way of the south gate; and whoever<br />
enters by way of the south gate shall go out by way of the north gate.<br />
He shall not return by way of the gate through which he came, but shall<br />
go out through the opposite gate. The prince shall then be in their<br />
midst.” (Ezek 46:9) This is symbolic of being changed from glory to<br />
glory – (2Cor 3:18). Every time we come into the presence of the Lord<br />
we are changed more into His likeness, and we leave different than<br />
when we first came.<br />
Yahweh God told Ezekiel, “mark well who may enter the house and all<br />
who go out from the sanctuary.” He then explains to Ezekiel the<br />
abominations that Israel has done in the past by allowing “foreigners,<br />
uncircumcised in heart and flesh” to be in His house and therefore<br />
defile it and break His Covenant. Therefore, the only people allowed<br />
into the temple will be those who are saved/redeemed or “circumcised<br />
in heart.” The unsaved or unredeemed who are “uncircumcised in<br />
heart” may never enter the temple.<br />
