REVELATION UNCOVERED - God's Puzzle Solved

Schoolmaster7When Israel sinned, they came to the temple and made sacrificesfor all their sins. The temple, being a place to worship God, wasalso God’s courthouse to try the sinner, whether guilty or not. Itwas to continually remind them they were sinners (Romans 5:20)and to try to bring them to Christ.Two TemplesNow, for a surprise: One temple was a physical temple and theother a spiritual temple. Only “Spirit” is real. Remember, thetemple in Israel was only a shadow (figure), not real, but merelya type of the temple in heaven (Hebrews 9:9). Just as The Lawwas only a shadow and could not make anyone righteous neitherwas the physical temple able to make one worthy to enter TheHoly of Holies – only Christ could.All of The Law, including the temple, could only bring one toJesus or truly restore God’s rest in paradise. This temple andThe Law were really only shadows or a type as a duality. ReadHebrews 9 and you can prove this point. You will see the realtemple, in heaven, defines the real meaning of the earthly temple,which was only a shadow of the real. Revelation uncoversthe true meaning of the earthly temple.Two HousesHebrews 3:1-6 speaks about two houses, or temples. In John14:1-2, Christ told His Disciples not to trouble their heart for “inmy Father’s house are many mansions” (or fabulous palacesof abode). Then Jesus continued, “I go to PREPARE A PLACEFOR YOU!” How wonderful. Christians are to live in palacesand mansions. Of these two houses – one is God’s real house andthe other is merely a shadow.
