[Music] you [Music] you Morningstar proportion was found in Exodus chapter 35 verse 1 and because it's a double portion it goes all the way to through chapter 40 till the end of Exodus so we have completed the book of Exodus this morning and now we're going to look at the haftorah the profits section and how it parallels the torah portion in the torah portion we saw the focus was on a unified Israel giving offerings for the Mishkan for the tabernacle with willing hearts and in chapter 36 it introduces vessel L and oholiab who are men who are given special spiritual gifts for making these pieces of furniture like the golden menorah and the Ark of the Covenant and in chapter 37 we saw the most holy and the holy place described and this morning's focus as we look at Solomon's taverts temple paralleling the mosaic tabernacle we are ultimately going to be applying it to ourselves and thinking how what does it take for our temple to be completed to be sanctified to be having spiritual gifts like bezalel and oholiab to complete us so that God can dwell in us because this was God's first and foremost desire was that he would dwell in the whole house of Israel but the whole house of Israel is made up of the individuals so we have a saying Judaism every deed matters every choice matters and every person matters because it's all of us individually that make up the whole of the bride in Israel in Chapter 38 of Exodus we saw the outer court described in chapter 39 we see the priestly garments described and ultimately that's the goal for us to reflect every piece in this tabernacle that was pointing to Yeshua as our high priest that we become priests in his kingdom he says know ye not that you'll be a kingdom of priests with me so this is the goal through the sanctifying process to be priests that God can dwell in and in the final chapter chapter 40 we see the tabernacle set up the priests anointed the Shekinah glory filling the tabernacle that's the ultimate goal and the climax of Exodus is that his Shekinah His divine essence can dwell within the tabernacle which is a type of our bodies paul says know ye not that your bodies are the temple of God so this is what we're gonna constantly be relating to today in parshat via hell and pay too high our haftorah portion is found in first Kings 7 verse 51 and goes through chapter 8 verse 21 so if you have your Bibles turn there with me and we're going to be looking at this book here which in first Kings I wanted to share a little bit about first Kings with you because who knows who wrote first Kings does anybody have any idea sometimes we don't even think about things like that books that are named like Samuel we know was written by Samuel books like Ezra we know are written by Ezra right as we even wrote Nehemia for the Prophet Nahum yet but Kings and Samuel used to be one composite book with four parts to it and it used to be called in the ancient days the book of kingdoms and it covered all the way from Samuel and his miraculous birth through the first king of Israel saw through David Solomon and all the divided kings of the Kingdom of Israel both north and south after divided after Solomon's reign so at some point they decided to name these this book of kingdoms to split it into two different parts and they had Samuel and they had kings but they would call it one two three and four still then even earlier or more recent they changed the name to first and second Samuel then they divided up the book of Samuel and they had first and second Kings so our Hoth tour this morning is in first Kings and First Samuel covers Samuel and his birth and goes into the kingship of Saul 2nd Samuel begins the kingship of David after Saul has died and that's where that's where they decided was a good place to divide these books first Kings picks up where a second Samuel left off and picks up on David's rain moved from Hebron to Jerusalem and he reigned 33 years and heparin and then moves into Solomon and then goes into the beginning of the divided kingdoms like first Kings 18 with Elijah talking about a hab he's up in the north why ASA is king over Judah this is all in first Kings second Kings then carries on the reign of these wicked kings in both the north and the south and ultimately leading up to the destruction of the the temple so who wrote these books yes you're right Samuel started writing them but when Samuel died who carried on that work so right about the time after his anointing David somewhere in David's reign Samuel died and remember who David's prophet was Nathan and GAD they continued the work to write the Chronicles of David so all of first samuel is written by Samuel Nathan and GAD Kings which covers David Solomon and the divided kingship was actually written by the Prophet Jeremiah but he had a scribe who would write most of the things that he was inspired to have written and his name was Baruch so it's a little introduction into the authorship of these books and to realize that Kings and Samuel it's all the book of kingdoms it's all the way from the Prophet that God sent to anoint the Kings to the United Kingdom the Davidic monarchy and then the divided kingdoms so this Prophet Jeremiah he's actually called the son of Hilkiah who is a Cohen so we know that he's a Levite but he's born in a little town in the inheritance of Benjamin now remember Benjamin and Judah and for those of you that have been to Israel with me you know how close Benjamin and Judah are to Jerusalem the dividing line is very close to Jerusalem and Levites had no inheritance of their own so they had a share around the temple in the inheritance of Judah and some later were born in as they spread out in the tribes of Benjamin so he was actually in the tribe of Benjamin a priest which tells us he's a Levite and he wrote this book with the assistance of Baruch his scribe and disciple and you're me Yahoo is how you would say it in Hebrew and yirme'yahu means may yah exalt it also has a connotation of something thrown out because we're gonna find that Jeremiah's life God threw him out to go after some of the Lost Tribes who just a hundred and fifty years before had been dispersed in 722 BC so he knew about the lost house of Israel he knew where they were dispersed to and we're gonna find the rest of the story a little bit later in today's portion as to why his name has a connotation of being tossed out like to the lost house of Israel so the timeframe in which he's writing is right after the destruction of the temple and we're gonna find that he was actually hiding underneath the temple when it was being destroyed and he was hiding with Zedekiah's two daughters remember Zedekiah had his eyes put out and nebuchadnezzar had captured him and then later killed him jeremiah was the one that preserved not only the Davidic line of Zedekiah's two daughters but also the Ark of the Covenant and hid that so he's primarily speaking to Judah because of the focus on the the destruction of Judah by Nebuchadnezzar but here he's writing in our haftorah about Solomon's days so he's not we're gonna go later into his days but right now he's talking about Solomon and he's paralleling it with Moses with the completion of the temple and so we want to think about how this applies to us today we need to complete the building up and the sanctification of our bodies as the Holy Temple of God for his indwelling glory as we are all a part of the greater house and Temple in Israel the bride so here's a little timeline and you can see Moses in the tour portion he's in the second year and he's actually well the first year ended with the at one minute the atonement where God is giving the tour portion basically off the day after Yom Kippur and all the instructions about the tabernacle are given and so when the temple is completed it's actually in the seventh month which is right after Yom Kippur what's interesting is Solomon we're gonna find also completed his temple in the seventh month it was during the feast then they went into the feast of Sukkot so it's same timeframe same parallel it's been written about down here with after the Israel is captured here northern Israel and right before the destruction of the temple so the haftorah describes the dedication of Solomon's Temple following the throne I mean following the theme of this week's Torah reading the dedication of the desert Tabernacle the construction of the holy temple was completed King Solomon assembled the leaders and elders of the tribes to Jerusalem and an admits great fanfare the Levites transported the ark from its temporary location in the City of David and installed it in the Holy of Holies chamber in the holy temple immediately God's Shekinah glory appeared in the temple in the form of a smoky cloud so he was actually veiling himself that glory is so bright that even had to veil that to come into the most holy place King Solomon then blessed God he recalled the history of the sanctuary how his father King David had wanted to build it but was told by God that it would be his son who would accomplish this feat it's interesting because Adam and the sons of Adam have desired to have God dwelling with them and in them the way before it was meant to be before sin but none could overcome and so ultimately it was the son who was able to finally build the temple who overcame that God has a model of what we are to be to have God dwelling in us without sin so this is a type of Yeshua and he says the Lord has established his word that he spoke and I have risen up in the place of David my father and I sit on the throne of Israel as the Lord's bowing and I've built a house for the name of the Lord the God of Israel and I have said there a place for the ark wherein is the command of the Covenant of the Lord the commandments which he made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt so I wanted to show you a little model but first I'm going to share a little quick timeframe with you to show you remember what day the children of Israel were at Mount Sinai Mount Horeb they came on the sivan six right Savan 6 is Shavuot this is when the Tim command was forgiving and what happened when he came down he was up there for forty days right and he came down on the 17th of Tammuz the Boldin calf occurred on this day so he broke the tablets of stone symbolizing their breaking God's covenant and you went back up the mountain to intercede for them 40 days without eating or drinking anything and he came back down with a message from God on Ehlo 1 and he gave that message but he was still interceding for Israel and Israel was to be totally fasting and praying for atonement at the base of Mount Sinai he went back up a third 40 days and he comes back down on the 10th of Tishri this is the seventh month and this is called the Day of Atonement and then right after the Day of Atonement you have five days till Sukkot right and it's in this timeframe that our tour portion tells us that the temple instructions are the tabernacle was given so the tour portion from exodus 35:2 40 is occurring with all the message of the tabernacle and it was completed in this timeframe then they started building it and then completed it on vivre 1 which is why we're reading that tour portion in our time because we're about next week will be a vivre one for us this is when the temple is to be completed this is why it's the beginning of the new religious calendar so Solomon also it says in 1st Kings completed the temple and they had a great feast so you can see the parallel to the same timeframe there's a parallel to why we're reading it in our parshas at this time of year with a vivre one because this is when the tabernacle was completed but ultimately it's also looking forward because what are we doing but preparing for the marriage of the lamb the bride has to prepare for the bridegroom and when does he come back in the seventh month and so this is when our temples need to be complete also so there's a parallel there now for years I prayed about why if God gave the specific instructions to Moshe about this heavenly tabernacle why did Solomon then go and change the measurements and build it a little over two times larger actually 2.2 in every room and every artifact it's about 2.2 to to to and infinite times bigger than the Moses Tabernacle model and so here I thought I'd show you a picture of what the moses tabernacle would look like compared to solomon's tabernacle and I was praying is this his eagle and the father revealed to me my glory still descended so it was a type of approval remember Moses the Gori only ascended after he did everything as God commanded him it says that in multiple times in Exodus 40 so God has to be revealing something deeper to us there has to be a message to us in that he would impress inspire Solomon to build it bigger it's not just Solomon's ego or Goethe for the grand jury sake of it why is it so then I looked at the next model of the next Tabernacle now this is Herod's tabernacle and Herod we don't consider a righteous person who restored the tabernacle really after the exile in Babylon it was Ezra and Nehemiah that came back and built it and we call it Herod's temple but it's the one that Ezra started building in 409 it was completed in 409 BC started in four d7 BC with the decree of artaxerxes to go and restore Jerusalem and then Herod continued to add to that and this is the temple that Yeshua would have seen in the first century and look at how much bigger it is than Solomon's Temple and Solomon's Temple was already bigger 2 times bigger than Moses temple so I've been praying and fasting meditating on why what's the meaning to this so then I thought is there a correlation Lord led me to Ezekiel in the Millennial temple and here's Herod's temple here Solomon's Temple here's the little Mickey - of mosaic Tabernacle and here's the Millennial temple and we know in the after the new heavens and the new earth the description and revelation of the temple coming down from God the New Jerusalem it is hundreds of miles across so it's even bigger so the theme continues well this helped unlock the idea that God is telling us that as individuals we are the temple of God but corporately we need to be in Israel Israel is the bride whether you can trace your roots from Israel or from Judah or you're from the Gentile world you are grafted into Israel if you want to be a part of the bride and this bride was prophesied to multiply to be blessed from the days of Abraham in Genesis 22 God says I will multiply your seed and they will be like the stars of heaven and like the sands of the sea and so this temple is showing that he intends for his bride to grow throughout the face of the earth and he will have a place for every one of them throughout eternity this is the evolution of the bride if you will the evolution of Israel his people they're growing they're multiplying when they came out of Egypt they were just a small clan he says I chose you not because you were the greatest of Nations but because you were the least why the least because it's reflective of his character of selfless love which always give and which is the smallest like the yode is the smallest letter in the Hebrew alphabet which begins his name Israel was the smallest but because of his blessing and because of them as long as they were in covenant with him he would bless them and multiply them and dwell with them as soon as they would go into spiritual adultery then what would happen this temple model which is a symbol of Israel would be destroyed and it happened over and over again and even on the same day so this is kind of the theme that father has downloaded this week for this Torah portion Exodus 40 verse 33 is our Torah portion says Moses did all that God commanded so this is a model his glory only descended in the temple when Moses had done all that he had commanded so that means that we need to do all that God commanded if we intend for his glory his spirit to dwell in us so Moses finished the work then the cloud covered the tent of meeting and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle this is paralleled with first Kings 751 it says thus all the work that King Solomon did on the house of the Lord was finished think about this term house it's used synonymously with temple so a lot of prophecies especially millennial prophecies you'll read in the prophets it will mention the house this word in Hebrew gets misinterpreted or mistranslated sometimes as Palace so it'll talk about the palace or the house or sometimes it's even called castle but it's really talking about a temple and ultimately our bodies are the temple of God and Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had dedicated the silver the gold and the vessels and he stored them in the Treasuries of the house of the Lord then chapter 8 says then Solomon assembled all the elders of Israel noticed this is a unified Kingdom and he's gathering everybody to be a part of this all the elders and all the heads of the tribes the leaders of the father's houses of the people of Israel before King Solomon and Jerusalem to bring up the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord out of the City of David which is Zion so the way this heal is that David bought from the Jeb you sigh onin the threshing floor it it progresses up and so the people would live down lower on this kind of Knoll and King David built his palace halfway up but the highest point even above the city of David and above Mount Zion was Mount Moriah where Yitzhak had been taken to be sacrificed and this temple was built upon this highest point so it was showing that David recognized that God was above him his palace would be in between the people and God as a mediator so they're bringing up the ark from the City of David where it was kept before there was a temple and all the men of Israel is symbols to King Solomon at the feast in the month at the NIEM so we have the old ancient Hebrew name for the seventh month before was called Tishri which came out of Babylon the original name of the seventh month in which our fall feasts are in is at the NIEM and then it clarifies which is the seventh month so he assembled all of the people together now we were Assembly of called out believers and God is going to assemble us all together in the seventh month to be presented before the bridegroom in some future year so it's very symbolic parallel and all the elders of Israel came and the priests took up the ark and they brought up the Ark of the Lord the tent of meeting and all the holy vessels that were in the tent the priests and the Levites brought them up welcome home brother and sister it's good to see you back from Guatemala and King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel who had a symbol before him were with him before they are sacrificing so many sheep and oxen that they could not be counted or numbered then the priests brought the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord to its place in the inner sanctuary of the house in the most holy place underneath the wings of the cherubim for the cherubim spread out their wings over the place of the Ark so that the cherubim overshadowed the Ark and it's poles so in the original tabernacle the cherubim were up on the mercy seat in gold in Solomon's Temple they were on each side and they were huge and the ark would be placed underneath them this is a symbol of what the heavenly throne room of God looks like where he has a angel to his left and the angel to his right we call them Archangels and it says the polls were so long that the ends of the polls were seen from the holy place before the inner sanctuary but they could not be seen from the outside and they are there to this day there is nothing in the Ark except the two tablets of stone that Moses put there at Horeb so this is talking about roughly 1000 BC right 950 BC let's say Jeremiah is writing it about 550 BC or maybe I should say he's writing this section right before the temple was destroyed because when the temple was destroyed the Ark was hidden underneath in a cavern underneath the most holy place and he carried it out from that so for him to say that it's still there to this day this has to be right before 586 BC the destruction of the tabernacle and he says nothing in the ark was there except the two tablets of stone interesting what happened to Aaron's rod what happened to the bowl of manna and is there a symbol in that for us today is there a reason why God is telling us we know not longer need to look at the authority of the Levitical priesthood because we have a high priest of the order of Melchizedek is that the reason why maybe Aaron's rod has taken out this is just speculation but I present it to you for your own meditations with the bowl of manna why is it not needed any longer because who was it pointing to Yeshua says I was that manna your forefathers ate in the wilderness so everything embodies the coming Messiah and Savior of the world and the Ten Commandments the fact that they retained in there shows that this person who God would use his son would have the Ten Commandments written upon his heart that that is not ever gonna be removed everything else can be removed that is man-made or a substitute pointing to issue a-- but god's commandments endure forever and they are not only written on the heart of yeshua but yeshua is the living torah so very interesting that this is all that they see at the time of solomon's temple being dedicated first tenses and when the priest came out of the holy place a cloud filled the whole house of the lord so that the priest could not stand to Minister because of the cloud for the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord imagine it's brighter than the Sun they couldn't even stand to go in it and it was so bright so now Solomon blesses the Lord and he says the Lord has said that he would dwell in thick darkness I have indeed built you an exalted house a place for you to dwell in forever remember this is a type of what the body of Israel the whole house of Israel is to become holy and sanctified totally set apart from the world so that God can dwell in them so Solomon didn't quite understand that this man-made temple is not going to last forever and this wasn't its intent its intent was to show us what it looks like to be totally holy without sin set apart sanctified then the King turned around and bless all the Assembly of Israel while all the Assembly of Israel stood and he said Baruch habah alone I you can see that this is the origin of all of our blessings this blessed be the Lord the God of Israel le ha yessir IL it's cool with his hand has fulfilled what he promised with his mouth to David my father saying since the day that I brought my people out of Egypt I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel in which to build a house that my name might be there see if the Lord had always told them that he would place his name upon a future city in one of the tribes of Israel and that's where all the sacrifices and offerings should be brought to but he didn't name it until 1st chronicles 6 6 is the first time that we see Jerusalem being mentioned as the place where I have chosen to place my name so his holy name is written upon Jerusalem forever this is his holy city and another type of the heavenly City so the heavenly City has a holy temple the earthly City Jerusalem has a holy temple it's so that we can start to think with spiritual mindset about the very temple of God and how we are to recreate that here on earth because ultimately this is going to be where God dwells for eternity this will be the center of all cosmic worship for all his creations and angelic beings so he says but I chose David to be over my people Israel so he's a type of the future mashiach ben david who will reign over God's people Israel as high priest and King and David did act as a type of high priest and king remember how he would go into the temple and he would eat the the showbread and only a person who was up a certain line could do this now what's interesting is when you trace the tzaddik priesthood line back through David you find that in the early days there was intermarriage between Judah and Levi so they have this a lot of times Union in whether you're from the tribe of Judah you also have traces of Levi in you so you can trace your Levitical priesthood line and kingship at the same time and he says now it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the name yo-dee-hey Vevey the God of Israel but the Lord said to David my father whereas it was in your heart to build a house for my name you did well that it was in your heart basically you're not you didn't complete the work you weren't perfectly sanctified you have too much blood on your hands but it's good that you desire that and that's kind of the way God winks at our ignorance we fall so far short so often what God says it's good that that's your desire to be a temple from behind dwelling spirit we can really bring that home to us today but the ultimate goal is to not just say okay well I tried and we fell short no to complete it and that completion occurs through the blood of the Lamb that power to be overcomers even as Yeshua was an overcomer he says nevertheless you shall not build the house but your son who shall be born to you shall build the house for my name now the Lord has fulfilled his promise that he made for I have risen in the place of David my father and sit on the throne of Israel as the Lord promised and I have built the house for the name of the Lord so what is the house bill for the name and what is the name reflect yo'd --have of hey ya hava you here hava me self-existent one you here off in that father and Ahava is love so self-existent father of love he wants a house or a vessel for that took totally be made manifest and that's what the glory is is the light of that selfless love of the yo-dee-hey Vevey that's been his desire from the very beginning that's why when he told Moses to have the people build me a tabernacle he actually said that I might dwell in them not just near them or amongst them but his desires to dwell in us and there I have provided a place for the ark in which is the covenant this is the ketubah the ten commandments of the Lord and they would also put the Torah in there that he made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt so here is a little glimpse of the inside of Solomon's Temple and you'll see some changes you know in the mosaic Tabernacle the Laver was right in front of the door that the priests would wash before they would go through and the altar of burnt-offering was in front of it so it'd be a straight line in and then you'd have the menorah on this side and the table of showbread on this side and the altar of incense would be before the veil and then you would go through the veil into the most holy place well Solomon has a few things changed he had many little Labour's and altars on the outside he put these across from one another and he had two pillars called yakeen and Boaz and there's a lot of symbolism in these pillars that you can do in your own studies and Solomon actually built these as double columns that could descend down like they were they were balanced in such a way that if Marauders would come the weight of these widths and would open up the floor in the most holy place and the new I mean the Ark of the Covenant could be hidden in a hole in the cavern underneath so this was kind of a very unique design that Solomon had built notice also that there is five menorahs on each side of the holy place what could this symbolize in the original tabernacle there was only one menorah and each one has seven branches seven lamps so a few times five on this side and five on this side and ten menorahs and there's ten commandments and the Ten Commandments are for everybody and there's 70 nations that came out of the Tower of Babel so ten times the seven individual lamps would represent a lamp for each nation God has a light that He desires each one of the nations to come to a knowledge of him through Israel and be grafted into the bride and so here's something uniquely changed in that there would be ten menorahs and seven the total lamps on the inside another change was he raised up so the way this top mount was where Isaac Abraham had built an altar to sacrifice Isaac there was this top rock on the top of the Temple Mount and he built the most holy place exactly over this raised up rock so everything else had a big flat foundation around it but then you'd have to have stairs going up to its room so I'll show you a little bit of what maybe Solomon was thinking when he did this if you look at Solomon's Temple sideways you've got Boaz and yock in here and I've showed you in previous studies that if you looked from an aerial view and you kind of laid these down it would be that Solomon is trying to convey to us more about how our bodies are the temple of God he had it laid out with arms and even a turban like a priest and the five things on the outside these little labors and altars are like our five fingers on each side and they the columns like the legs of man and the labor of water like our bowels and the holy place like the place of our where the soul sits you know the will and the mind the heart all of these here in the central place but ultimately the Spirit of God influences us through our not pituitary it's pineal thank you I always forget and switch those two through the pineal gland in the brain so look at the symbolism of Jacob's Pillow stone and this is gonna come back into play with Jeremiah and Jacob his dreaming at a place he calls that el which means house of God and so he laid out the design of the house of God just like Jacob in whom is all 12 tribes the whole house of Israel is really the temple that God desires to dwell in so here Jacob laid his head on this stone at Bethel and the stone was prophesied to become a cornerstone of the future temple and look at how Isaac's Rock is just like that stone that the Holy of Holies is resting upon where God's Spirit dwells just like our mind in our pineal gland and the turbine he had a little place for priests around the top of it so there's amazing symbolism in why Solomon was doing it the way he was doing it and why did he'd make it bigger because the children of Israel all twelve tribes and eventually 13 when Joseph becomes ephraim and manasseh are in jacob but are going to be multiplying through God's blessings they're gonna get larger and even the temple getting larger through each temple being rebuilt is indicative of that prophecy being fulfilled that God will not forget he has promised to our forefathers Abraham Isaac and Jacob his word will not return to Him void I hope I'm not standing in the way of this for your here I'll try to stand over here so in Ezekiel chapter 43 verse 10 he says as for you son of man describe the house of Israel the temple so this is a confirmation the house of Israel is the temple that they might be ashamed of their iniquities why cannot God dwell in our bodies the way he desires to because of sin the iniquities and so he's telling him every time you as a body of corporate body are falling into sin I'm gonna show you what it's doing to you in your own destruction through the destruction of the temple and it says we should consider the plan we should measure it meditate contemplate upon it this is what he's telling these Ezekiel to tell the people describe the house of Israel what does it mean to describe the house of Israel tell how it reflects the plan of salvation and us in our bodies how God wants to dwell in us so that we will turn from our sin what is sin first John 3:4 defines it as the transgression of the Torah what is the Torah the very transcript of God's character which is selfless love which means anytime we do anything self-seeking selfish we are entering into sin and severing ourselves from the source of life and entering into a domain of death it would be immediate death if it wasn't for the lamb slain from the foundation of the world which all the sacrifice is pointed to so this is why we have a time even while we're separating ourselves through sin and self seeking to be able to contemplate and repent from our mistakes and turn back to it because of the lamb took that ultimate effect that immediate effect of sin upon himself so here's another little model that I've built for you the house of Israel and the house of Judah together is intended to be the true temple of God the tabernacle as a man and what did he say he said Solomon says I have built a house for the holy name the yote hey Bob hey to dwell in so I put the yo'd --have of hay on top of one another instead of writing it like we normally do from left to right in the Hebrew and look at how the yo'd the most selfless this is the way our mind is supposed to be the smallest of all Hebrew letters is the letter that begins the name yo-yoed hey Bob hey God's holy name Yeshua Yitzhak who was a type of Yeshua all of these things are teaching us to be small to be selfless and this is what our mind is to be meditating on the hey means there's something to reveal and it looks like two arms and the vog is like the connector that connects the upper torso with the lower torso and the final hey is like our two legs it looks like a man even the model of the father's holy name is symbolizing this Tabernacle model with the Holy of Holies being his selfless spirit of love which shines out and it manifests itself like love he's not shining because he's saying look at how bright I am look how glorious I am look how powerful I am that would be so focused wouldn't it that would be self-indulgent he can't help but shine out because that's what selfless love is selfish love is always other centered and it is so hungry to lavish itself on the object of its affection this is what this is what the origination of God's creative work is all about it's his love just can't wait to share it with others and it starts manifesting as creation in matter this is energy this is the energy and the frequency that we need to return to pure selfless love you can see the soul being reflected in lampstand and the torah the table of showbread and the prayers that ascend like the fragrant aroma of the altar of incense and ultimately the bowels the water systems in our body and our testings and then the outer court altar it's symbolic of the flesh and house we so often are walking in the flesh and what really has led man into sin throughout the ages is a lot of times his promiscuity his sexual sense his immorality if you will his fornication constantly you see that associated with pagan worship there was fertility worship and this is where all calls to prostitution came out of was cult worship and so what is he telling us we need to die to that this is where the sacrifice took place we need to die to the fleshy nature's that to gratify the self and to indulge the self and so there's a whole model enough for us that we didn't get we totally missed it and it took your shoe up coming and showing what true self-denial and true selfless love looks like being lived out another important aspect is the aspect of unity in our Torah portion we talked a lot about unity and as long as the children of Israel were unified God dwelt in their midst notice that as soon as the kingdom was divided after Solomon's reign and REO boom went to the north and Jeroboam to the South God's presence left and Nebuchadnezzar could come and besieged the city and destroy the temple which is a type of us we are destroying ourselves if we're going to remain separate from our other and Judah Israel dispersed to the north and to the west and came through Europe and came to America and they forgot their identity but God promised through the prophet Isaiah Ezekiel that he would bring them back together with Judah and make them one in his hand and it's through that that we will see this divided Kingdom returning to the Davidic monarchy through Yeshua as the king that's when that's ultimately gonna occur then God's Spirit can dwell with us once again it can't dwell with us as long as we're divided so in your prayer life and in your meditations be thinking about how you can be more unified with the one true God with your brother Judah in Torah and with a love for the land there it's the Israel your true inheritance so God called Jeremiah when he was still a young boy has a prophet in fact God had already set Jeremiah apart for the office of a prophet before he was even born in order to take God's Word to all Israel and to all the nations so now we're going to move from the mosaic tabernacle to and from Solomon's Temple to the person who is writing about Solomon's Temple paralleling it with the mosaic tabernacle and looking at what did he do after that Solomon's Temple was destroyed this is not the rest of the story the parallel continues in that he now there's no earthly temple he is sent by God to go and develop the true house the whole house of Israel but most of them have dispersed already amongst the nation's we know that from the time of the Exodus one of the sons of Judah namely Zahra traveled across the Mediterranean and left even before the Exodus and he traveled all the way up in across the Mediterranean through Spain up through London and went to Ireland and this is primarily where the red rampant line of Zahra and Zahra means scarlet because the Scarlet thread that was put on his hand resided even before the Exodus and then we see the northern ten tribes why is there ten tribes if Judah Benjamin and Levi are three tribes down and they're later taken to Babylon why is there still ten because by that time Ephraim and Manasseh each had an inheritance in the land so there's 13 tribes so the northern ten tribes including Ephraim and Manasseh get taken by Assyria but as Syria can't continue to keep them captive and so if they let them go and they disperse up through the caucuses and into Eastern Europe and into Western Europe and they have a knowledge in their day off that one brother of Judah Zahra who's already residing in the Isles in Ireland and this is why Dan even though he named every place that he migrated through after his own name he went up the Dan knew he named it the Dan knew it used to be called the Ishtar River then he gets up to the north and he calls the place where he resides for a while Denmark and then he goes and he wants to find his brother Judah and he also goes to Ireland and resides and inter marries with with this descendants of Judah through Sarah's lion this is the knowledge that Jeremiah had when God sent him to the northern ten tribes he's going to also Judah and there's a reason why he's taking the daughters of Zedekiah who are from the Davidic line which is through Perez the other son of Judah he's gonna reunite them because God had given him prophecies that Messiah would come through the Davidic line so I think this is my personal estimation the Solomon thought he was helping God by reuniting both lineages of the Davidic or I may have the Judah he's gonna reintroduce Perez with Sarah and and he's preaching about the coming Messiah and the Messiah doesn't actually come for another 500 years but what is he doing by doing that they might have lost all memory of these promises if it hadn't been for people like Jeremiah going and being sent to them encouraging them exciting them thinking maybe this is gonna happen in our day and what we're gonna find out is that he does reunite this Lion of Judah but it takes another 500 years for yushua to come and where does Paul go he follows the exact line of Jeremiah the exact places where Jeremiah stopped along the way this is what Paul's journey was and this is why the church has decided to take out that last chapter of Acts that tells about his journey in acts 29 which we will look at so God gave Jeremiah the overview of his prophetic ministry he told him behold I have put my words in your mouth now you sure as the word made flesh he's literally telling him the knowledge of Yeshua and that he needs to go proclaim it to Judah who's been for the last thousand years probably or 500 years residing up in Ireland he says I'm gonna put my word in your mouth see I have this day set you over nations not just the nation of Israel he's said Jeremiah up over the nations and over the kingdom's to root out to pull down by destroy and to throw down to build and to plant this meant that God had appointed Jeremiah to proclaim the both the destruction of the temple when God's people were not unified and they were not following his Commandments but also to build up Israel who was already dispersed in to build up the nations through the building up of Israel the lost house of Israel which will eventually lead to the very kingdom of God so a couple things to realize is the line of Judah split when Zara left Egypt before the Exodus like I mentioned then the house of Israel leaves the northern ten tribes in 722 BC so when Jeremiah took Zedekiah's daughters from the tabernacle after the destruction of the temple along with the Ark of the Covenant down into Egypt this is the way he travelled and he stayed in Egypt for a time and then he set sail from the Mediterranean coast of Egypt and sailed across to Sardinia and which is off of the coast of Italy and then he went he was going to go into the area of Rome but they advised him this is not a good time it's too dangerous don't go there so he settled went to Gibraltar the coast of Spain and he found there that the tribe of GAD had already settled the area of Gibraltar and southern Spain and the gadites at that time they were called gadites they received him very well and they'd already set up little Kings within the individual tribes and they told them about Zara up in the north so Jeremiah and these daughters princesses of Zedekiah stayed there for a while and then continue their migration route up into Ireland with him they took that pillow that stone of Jacob which all kings of Israel were always coordinated on what he was hoping is he would reunite the Zahra line with the Perez line and he would take the stone because mashiac would be through one of their offspring so Jeremiah goes after them after Nebuchadnezzar has taken Judah and Levi and Benjamin to Babylon and God ends up dispersing them further is when persia takes over Babylon and they go further to Iran and that's where Daniel was in Susa and you know there's continual migrations of those three three tribes before they come back to Judah and to Israel Jeremiah is now travelling to the north and to the west to to follow his holy mandate by God accompanied by his scribe Baruch and the daughters of Zedekiah king of Judah of Davidic lineage from Perez in jeremiah 23:5 as well as in other biblical passages we're told that the Messiah would be a descendant of King David who was from the tribe of Judah and was a descendant of Abraham so you can see this little family tree of Zahra who left Egypt left the other clans of Israel even before the Exodus occurred from Egypt from the time in Egypt and they sailed across the Mediterranean and remember the prophecy that Jacob the forefather had given his sons he said to Judah through which Perez and zerah I mean for us and Sarah we're both a part of Judah when he blessed Judah and he says the scepter will not depart from you so wherever Sarah went there was Kings and kingdoms established and wherever fred's went there was Kings and kingdoms on both sides so Zara long before Israel knew what had happened to him they became the Cretan kings and the what's called the Malaysian kings this was a very strong tribe which mythology came out about in Ireland that had settled in Spain that's basically their migration route because across the Mediterranean they would have gone to Greece and Troy they became the Trojan kings Cretan kings then they continue their migration westward and they become the Malaysian kings and the after the Trojan kings they continued on up north where Dan had settled and they became the Frankish Kings and the Scandinavian kings up in the north Dan usually traveled with shamone and they always tried to keep in contact with this Lion of Judah as well which is interesting so you can kind of see down to our day and there's even more I'm just giving you out at the top of the family tree picture now Perez stayed in Egypt was a part of the Exodus and the Covenant given at Mount Sinai through which David came in Solomon and the Prophet Nathan and we know that Joseph of Arimathea was from this line of the Judaic kingdom through Nathan Solomon had a son who had a son who have said they were all kings of Judah but they were each one more wicked than the first and Zedekiah was the last king of the divided kingship before Nebuchadnezzar took siege of Jerusalem and it's his daughters that Jeremiah is taking on this journey to reunite with Zahra so this is why this line comes over and gets connected to this because they did end up intermarrying and they become the kings of Ireland and one of the sisters one was named teat Effie the other one was named kotya and this names kotya of her sister became Scotia like Nova Scotia what is Nova Scotia named after Scotland it's New Scotland its what was Scotland named after the sister so teat Effie becomes Ireland and Scotty a' becomes the name first Scotland's origination and you can see that off of this same line comes Joseph and Mary and ultimately while Jeremiah is thinking by uniting Zahra with Perez that maybe the Messiah will come through them the Messiah ends up coming 500 years later and Paul goes and tells all of this lineage that's multiplying over in Ireland and in Scotland about the good news that Messiah has come because they were anxiously awaiting since the days of Jeremiah now you know the rest of the story Jeremiah well knew where the tribes of Israel were in his day he knew that Judah Levi and Benjamin were in Babylon filling the 70 years prophesied that they would be in captivity and the small remnant that Nebuchadnezzar left of them in Judea were scattered hither and thither the other 10 tribes or what we call Ephraim or Israel were settled in Central Asia they traveled up through Turkey and the caucuses and then they went northward and westward this he knew just like Peter knew centuries later when he wrote his letter to the brethren of Israel of the whole house of Israel this is how Peter oftentimes addresses his letters he says they're scattered abroad in Pontus Galatia Cappadocia Asia and James the book of James was actually Yaakov this is Yeshua's brother he wrote a letter and dedicated it to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad even in his day they knew of these the whole house of Israel needs to be rebuilt just like the temple needs to be rebuilt after its destruction and anointed and cleansed and rededicated the whole house of Israel is this model that God was trying to get across and that's why each some subsequent tabernacle or temple was larger and larger showing that Israel is multiplying throughout the nations but there's still the house of God that God intends to dwell in and save the whole world through even Yeshua when he commissioned and sent his disciples What did he say I come not from Judah right now Judah is gonna recognize him when he comes as mashiac when he returns the Exile of the Lost house of Israel but he says I come right now for the lost house of Israel the message of him and what he was doing in showing God's selfless love was to go out and encourage all of the dispersed and in so doing it helps rebuild spiritually this house of the whole house of Israel so he sent out his apostles after the lost sheep he called them of Israel this is the lost house saying I will make you fishers of men well this hid me in this context what he was using was and what happened with the two loaves and the five fishes I mean the two fishes and the five lows he was actually instead of telling a parable like the parable of the prodigal son is all about Israel that went astray and you know did horrible things following you know the worldly lifestyle and the gods of the heathens and all of that the prodigal son needs to come home that's us that's the descendants of Israel that have been spread amongst all the nations he was doing the same thing in type with the multiplication of the two love fishes and the five loaves she was telling a parable there instead of just creating a miracle to feed people physically he was feeding them spiritually look at the symbolism the two fishes represent both houses of Israel the house of Israel and the house of Judah he tells his disciples I'm gonna make you fishers of men basically I want you to go out and tell the truth these eternal truths to both houses wherever they're at to build them back up into a thing that God can't well in the five laws what do you think that represents the five books of Moses which we know is the Torah and which is the covenant which God made with this bride the whole house of Israel at Horeb at Mount Sinai so he's reminding them of his marriage to them through these five loves this is what the loaves in the tabernacle represented you see it all coming alive we are seeing what Jeremiah looked forward to what David looked forward to what Yeshua and the apostles look forward to being fulfilled in our day the two sticks are coming near to each other and when Yeshua returns and rain says high priest and King he's gonna unite them as one and through the Millennium rewrite this Torah upon our hearts so that we can be a vessel v for his service and indwelling we can be corporately and individually a temple that God can dwell in once again and all the nations through the blood of Yeshua can be grafted in to this bride this is the good news this is the bass aura that should be going out to the world that hasn't been preached ever since the Christian world came into existence and watered it down and said oh he died for you you don't have to do anything at all keep sinning don't worry about it God's gonna save you for eternity as a sinner no there's a work for us to do that's called sanctification and we can't do it in our own power it's God's Spirit who does it through us but we have to be willing and submit to him Genisys 22:17 promises Abraham I will bless you and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed this is the reference that Yeshua was alluding to with the multiplication of the two fishes and the five loaves the promise that God had given our forefather Abraham I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven and it says the sand which is upon the sea shore and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies in your seed all the nations of the earth will be blessed now what's the definition of a harlot a harlot is a woman who says no I'm gonna have access to the husband without being a part of the bride that would be like a nation saying I'm spiritual Israel I don't really need literally Israel I don't like their Torah I don't like their land I don't like their history or their people I don't want to be grafted into them No I claim by my own authority that I have access to the husband this is what revelation is describing is people that say hey I've heard the good news and I'm gonna claim the name but what is your shoe assay in the parable many will say to me in that day Lord Lord they know him but what happens he says didn't we prophesy in your name didn't we cast out demons your name and you'll say depart from me ye workers of Torah lessness I never knew you you didn't keep my covenant you weren't grafted into the bride so I'm not knowing is an intimate word it's like Adam knew Eve he's saying I'm not gonna be intimate I mean you can't be intimate and and I'll be holding on to your sin you should have been grafted into Israel and embrace your Torah and this is what the love story the great love story is all about in your seed all the nations of the earth will be blessed not apart from your seed because you what's the clincher have obeyed my voice because you continue sinning because you obeyed my voice so here is a map of the migrations of Israel here's Israel this little nation right here and in the days of Jacob the famine in the days of Joseph they came down to Egypt and they recited here in Goshen and see the the Fertile Crescent of the Nile River coming into the Mediterranean and this is where they resided for two hundred and ten years during that timeframe Zahra who had access to the sailing ships of the Phoenicians sailed up through they would usually stop here as a break and this is where near Sicily and Sardinia and there's another one which I'll remember in a little bit they would stop at then they would usually stop here in Spain and they named the whole place the place of the Hebrews I beer the Iberian Peninsula I beer comes from the root word of Hebrew they named the river of the I beers and the whole landmass then they would to continue sailing northward they would go through the Strait of Gibraltar now instead that the Strait of Gibraltar looked like a lion so this is why many people GAD settled here and Sarah would have settled there for a while but then he continued on they would have come into this little Strait and this is like Cornwall and London area and then migrated up into Ireland and so this is the way that Sarah came later with the northern ten tribes migrating through the caucuses dan would have come up the Danube which comes into the Black Sea and the Hughes prophesied that he would be like a snake well what Jim Jacob was seen in vision was his migration route the curvature of the Danube and it comes up to the North calls every place there's like 20 or 30 different cities and rivers and countries named with the root word for dam going along this route and then he goes from here over to Ireland where's era where Judah already is so this is how he's me he's coming from a different direction but when Jeremiah at the destruction of the temple when Nebuchadnezzar takes Judah and Levi and Benjamin over here to Babylon he hides out underneath the temple and comes down with the daughters of Zedekiah and he resides here where Israel had resided years before and then set sail and follows the same route that Zahra followed over to Sardinia then over to the Strait of Gibraltar in Spain and then up to Cornwall and these things are actually mentioned in some of the annuals of ancient Zedekiah's journey and then up to Northern Ireland to reintroduce the Lion of Perez with the line of sera so then afterwards in 1492 many Jews flourished here in Spain until 1492 when Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand gave they all Homburg decree and many people don't know that Columbus was actually Jewish and he found a refuge for them in taking them to this new world where they could have religious freedom to observe Torah not to observe paganism and so Israel further goes from Western Europe to the Americas and this is how it continues to spread and then we're born in America and we've lost all consciousness of our true identity and we don't know why our DNA is waking up for Torah and why we're returning and this is the rest of the story it's all about God completing his temple it's all that's what Jeremiah was sent to do complete the real temple the whole house of Israel but it's a long process taking thousands of years ultimately it's going to be completed in the seventh just like this seventh month remember the seventh month is the time where yom teruah the the day of trumpeting occurs in which ye shuo will come back and complete this temple in us it also not only is the seventh month significant with the temples being completed but the seventh day God has had a plan of seven thousand years the Millennial Shabbat is a type of time period where Torah will be written upon our hearts and this temple be completed once again Jeremiah 3:12 says go and proclaim these words to the north this is God speaking to Jeremiah so here's a further proof he's telling him where to go after the temple gets destroyed I want you to go to the north and to the west basically follow lost house of Israel and say return faithless Israel they've been faithless that's why they were dispersed and captured by Assyria in the first place then furthermore they get influenced by the paganism of other tribes and cultures in the lands of their dispersion and he's calling them back to repentance teshuva and the Hebrew is the word for repentance it means to return to the source return to Torah return to God and a remembrance of what God's promises were through our forefathers about the coming Messiah he says I will not look upon you in anger in other words when you hear this message don't be afraid that if you come back to me I'm gonna be upset with you I'm gracious this is my character declares yo Dave Ave I will not be angry forever look at Jeremiah 43 verse 3 but Baruch described the son of neriah setteth thee on against us for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans that they might go put us to death and carry us away captive into Babylon so yo ho yo hang on the son of Koresh and all the captains of the forces and all the people obeyed not the voice of the Lord he's telling them this is why you're being taken captive by Nebuchadnezzar to dwell in the land of Judah but Jochen on the son of Correa and all the captains of the forces took all the remnant of Judah that were returned from all nations whether they had been driven to dwell in the land of Judah even men and women and children the Kings daughters TFE and scotty a-- and every person the nebuchadnezzar the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of hakam the son of shaphan and jeremiah the prophet in Beru the son of Maria so they came into the land of Egypt this is telling you the story of how after hiding underneath the most holy place with the daughters of Zedekiah and after nebuchadnezzar had pretty much destroyed the temple of solomon and then he leaves with all the captives including Daniel and his three friends then when the the coast is clear Jeremiah reappears with the Ark of the Covenant and these two daughters of royal lineage and they make their way down to Egypt for they obeyed not the voice of the Lord thus came they even to tap a knees tap Inez is right in that Fertile Crescent that I was showing you in Egypt right as you're getting ready to cross over the Nile River from Israel right here is top Anees so he's coming down from Jerusalem and settling here for a while until he can plan the rest of his route and hear the word of the Lord sending him to the lost house of Israel so look at this crest of Ireland knowing now that the whole house of Israel is the temple that God desires to build up and to complete and he's been seeking to do it through Jeremiah and through Paul and through all the Apostles and through us today everything that we're doing here at the Assembly have called out believers is about reconciling the two houses back together Ephraim and Judah Israel and Judah and helping Israel in all the lands of their dispersion wake up and recognize who they are and by teaching them the Torah we are doing a little precursor to help them for even the millennial reign and for being sanctified and for returning to Judah so in this crest we see the Prophet Jeremiah and the King Zedekiah his daughters settled and married up in Ireland and this is where Jeremiah died you know his grave is up in Ireland to this day you can still go and see it if you ever do a tour of Ireland and I forget the name of the town starts with a D same buddy no huh Devlin I think that's it I'm not deaf my Dublin but Devorah SHhhh I think it's called Deborah SHhhh this crest has four quadrants in it it has the royal harp of David has one of its symbols it has the red hand of Zahra the Scarlet representing Zahra settled there first but then the Royal golden tribe of Perez came through the daughters of Zedekiah so they're reintroduced with Zahra and then later damn and who traveled with Dan like I said Simeon is always represented by a sword so the early crest when you see swords on each side of it or this was Samoans tribes Timmy and remember how he went and killed everybody and Shechem with the sword he was known for his use of the sword quite a mighty warrior so Dan and shamone end up residing in Ireland - this is why you have different kinds of people some are jet-black hair some are red hair there's this unique difference between the two different kinds of people even to this day but they're both from the house of Israel this is the Ireland coat of arms with King David's harp and Sarah's hand Ezekiel 11 417 says therefore say thus says the Lord God though I had removed them far away from among the nations so God had moved Israel far away but he always said in the last days I will bring you back I'm gonna scatter you and many people think of it as oh I'm being punished but what I spoke at the Commonwealth of Israel conference in Jerusalem is that it has been a blessing because if we were all in one place during the Age through the last you know a couple thousand years it's been two thousand seven hundred and fifty years roughly that Israel has been dispersed amongst the nations if we had been there in the Land of Israel one there wouldn't been enough resources for us to multiply as the sands of the sea and the stars of heaven right - we would have been in one place and a target of all the people that hate Israel and Satan would have known how to wipe out the whole house of Israel so God's actually done a merciful act in hiding us amongst all of the nations of the world so we can flourish we can multiply and we can be safe it was an act of kindness and he prophesized in the last days I will gather you back he said though I had scattered them among the countries yet I was a sanctuary for them so he's the sanctuary in US rebuilding the sanctuary of Israel that he can reside in a little while in the countries where they had gone therefore say thus says the Lord God I will gather you from the people and assemble you out of the countries which you have been scattered and I will give you back the Land of Israel this is a promise not only to Judah who fulfilled their promise in 1948 but ultimately since 1948 and up to the time where Messiah comes this is what we are gonna be fulfilling our destiny is back in the land and being one with Judah once again one whole house of Israel Isaiah 56 8 says the Lord God who gathers the dispersed of Israel declares yet others I will gather to them so the fourth part of the blessing of Israel being dispersed amongst the nations is so that the nations can learn of one God's truth the message of what God is doing through Yeshua and can be part of the promises and the privileges of Israel by being grafted in just like the mixed multitude that came out of Egypt remember there was Egyptian there was other tribal people the Midianites who crafted themselves into the house of Israel and they were able to partake of the Covenant at Horeb anyone in the nations who wants to partake of the Covenant of God and be part of the bride has to be grafted into the literal body the literal house the literal family of Israel and returned to his ketubah covenant his word Jeremiah 24 6 also prophesized for I will set my eyes upon them for good and I will bring them again to this land and I will here's the key word build them up this is something the father has just revealed to me this week that these enlarged Tabernacles each time its gets rebuilt is really indicative of the whole house of Israel that he's going to build up and he says and will not overthrow them and I will plant them and not pluck them up everything man-made can be destroyed but when God built it up it will last forever and that's his intent that we will be eternally at one with him but he cannot coexist with darkness so there's a process of sanctification to make us holy without harboring any or holding on to any shred of self that's really what darkness is it's all about the self seeking that Wheaton that's why the altar is the very first thing that you see when you come into the temple complex because we need to learn to die to self even as Yeshua laid down his life freely this body is nothing it's just a vessel he really wants the spirit to thrive and that spirit is our core identity which is his spirit it's selfless love it is recorded that Paul followed Jeremiah's journey in going to the lost house of Israel sailing from eastern Mediterranean coast so Jeremiah had left from Egypt just a little bit underneath Paul left from probably the same place Jonah left from the Joppa port and he settled he went to Rome where Jeremiah was advised not to stay then like Jeremiah did he went on to Corsica that was the other place I couldn't remember that Jeremiah had stopped and then to Sardinia these were sailing ports that they could stop replenish their supplies a lot of times if they were in a bad storm their sails would rip there's stories about Jeremiah's journey that after he went through the Strait of Gibraltar actually he was in such a bad storm that the haul the oars broke and they couldn't steer the ship but God guided the ship right into the part in Cornwall where they would meet with the people they needed to meet before they reconnected with the tribe of Zehra up in Ireland and so they would get repairs in these places this is for the reason for stopping through the Mediterranean then from Sardinia onto the Gibraltar Strait and they stayed there for quite a bit of time months there in Spain all did the same thing these are journeys are described in acts 29 he went from Rome to through Sardinia to Spain then on to what acts 29 describes as the lead gate this was the main gate to enter into London in ancient times it was called Cornwall this is where Jeremiah went and then on to Ireland and even Paul it's described went on and met with the druids who were descendants and he says by their rights and their ceremonies he recognized them to be a part of the lost house of Israel so we have multiple double confirmations please there and this is but all part of the aisles right yeah exactly and it's much further north so this is part of the [Music] yeah that's right the very descendants who were sent there by God prepared the way to reclaim the land that is a very good point thank you anything else oh it's so beautiful I just love it because it's all these missing pieces of the puzzle so Paul is following Jeremiah's journey to share with the Lost house of Israel the lost sheep the good news that Jeremiah was sharing Jeremiah was sharing about the coming Messiah Paul was sharing that he had actually come in Israel from the tribe of Judah to reach those that Jeremiah had primed with his prophecies of the coming Messiah five hundred years before now we are finishing this work we're revealing to the Lost house of Israel who they are and why they should return in repentance to God in his Torah and a love for his land and for brother Judah and the whole house of Israel the Prophet Nahum iya says our God through the Prophet Nehemia if you return to me this is true teshuva and keep my Commandments this is what it looks like to return to God and do them don't just hear them but Shema be doers of the word though those of you who have been scattered were in the most remote parts of the heavens the heavens are like the horizon like you went to the most remote part that that's out of sight that's what that connotation of the heavens has I will gather them from there and bring them back to the place where I have chose to cause my name to dwell where did he place his name Jerusalem Solomon says I built a house for your name to dwell ultimately the whole house of Israel has to return to Jerusalem this is what Yeshua was referring to when he says you will be a kingdom of priests we will be residing there in Jerusalem with him the prophet Isaiah cries out concerning Israel though the number of the Israelites are like the sands of the sea only the remnant will be saved the remnant is not only the leftover or the last those that go through the final tribulation but it's also the remnant who observe the commandments because there's a lot of descendants of Israel but not all are going to choose to willingly return in repentance and embrace the Torah we have Jewish brothers who are not only secular but they're atheist we have Jewish brothers who are sold out to destroy Israel and are against Israel like George Soros so it's not everyone even though Paul prophesized that the way God is working all the Jews will be saved and when he says Jews he's speaking about the whole house of Israel sometimes the Jew the term Jew is synonymous with all the tribes and they still use that this way in Israel today but when God prophesized that though the numbers of the Israelites are like the sand of the sea only the remnant will be saved means there is a work to be done in our lives a sanctifying work to be made holy this is what the building up of man as the house of yo-dee-hey Vevey is all about it's about recreating himself his image in us and restoring Israel as the bride this is what it means to complete the work of the temple Matthew 3:11 and 12 says he speaking of Yeshua will baptize you the body of Messiah the Assembly have called out believers with the ruach ha'qodesh and with fire his winnowing fan is in his hand and he will thoroughly clean his threshing floor what does that mean some if you're holding on to darkness just like the wheat and the tares the terrors get heaped up for being burnt for being cleansed through this cleansing process says he will gather his wheat into his barn this is where the marriage of the lamb takes place he's gonna gather us into his Hoopa it says but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire this is why only a remnant will be saved our whole good news our whole the Soraa our whole focus is all about becoming that bride without spot or blemish this is what the lost gospel is really all about that in you you are the hope of Israel that you will be restored with Judah and become one in his hand that you will reimburse his Torah that you will return in repentance and this means changing our mind changing our language returning to the Hebrew language returning to his covenant in Torah returning to his people in his land in Israel this is what Paul was talking about when he prophesied in Ephesians five twenty seven he says that God desires to present right the body the whole house of Israel to himself has a glorious assembly a bride not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing but that it should be holy and without blemish so in the theme of the Mosaic Tabernacle being completed at this time of year and the haftorah with Solomon's Temple being completed let us meditate on being completed as the bride of mashiac and re-establishing the whole house of israel what its intent was which was to be a holy temple not just our individual bodies but all of us together to be a place where God can dwell in that can only happen if we are without spot or blemish so be encouraged this is what we're here for Paul says edify the body which means to build up to encourage and that's what I hope each one of these messages do for each one of you to show you the greater plan which has been hidden for thousands of years from us this is very encouraging because time is very short and we're gonna see this fulfilled in our day so with that let's stand and we'll close in prayer abba father we love you so much and we thank you for revealing that you have a plan for the whole house of Israel in that each temple was larger and larger and larger and that your goal is ultimately looking forward to your heavenly temple residing with man once again and your Shekinah glory being able to dwell in us and through us that father you would have applied that you could present to your son without spot or blemish and so the very first step is like the very first step of entering the tabernacle outer core we see that altar of burnt-offering and we realize that we need to die to self we need to live as a living sacrifice for you father and so we submit our lives to you this day and we ask through the blood of Yeshua to be empowered to be overcomers and through your ruach ha'qodesh father cleanses anoint us for this holy calling and use us despite ourselves forgive us where we have sinned and where we have lived life of ignorance and where we have transgressed your Torah father and give us the power to to live it out in thought word and deed and may it be made manifest in all of our lives as your selfless love in acts of kindness to all of your children dispersed around the world this is our prayer father and we thank you for revealing to us your plan in your holy name we pray amen you
