RECALIBRATION 9
As promised in my last piece we'll take it further from there today as God would be helping us to unlock more realities in Christ.
After the presentation of Jesus' blood in the true tabernacle in the heavens, he descended back, reason being that the blood must be accepted first before we can be justified and have access to the father. When Jesus descended back he had 40 days conference with his disciples baptizing them into immortal things and sound doctrine(Acts 1:3) before he finally ascended back into the heavens and this time around he didn't go alone but he went with the spirit of just men made perfect who were formerly trapped down in Hades because Jesus hadn't die and the only way to the FATHER was Jesus (John 14:6) which means no one( including Enoch and Elijah) was in heaven until the death and resurrection of Jesus( John 3:13). Did you notice that when Jesus died, the veil in the temple blocking the way into the holy of holies rent into twain from top to the bottom and the earth did quake and the rocks rent and the graves were opened and many bodies of the saints which slept arose and came out of the grave Matthew 27: 51:53. That was the day hell(hades) broke loose and released the saints therein, the veil that rent was the reality depriving them from entering into heaven but on account of Jesus' death access was granted. From that time man has been living in heaven even the one seated on the throne is a man; the MAN Christ Jesus ( 1 Tim 2:5). I know the religious minds will still be struggling with this revelation, that how can you say Jesus is a man, I didn't say so the bible did, let me proceed further by saying on account of redemption Jesus became man eternally but the New Kind of man( New Man). To corroborate my point and further convince you about the current state of Christ in heaven read Luke's Gospel 24:36-39
Jesus became our high priest as against the Aaronic priesthood which was just a type and figure of things to come.
Let me be more explicit here as regards my statement above. God was not originally interested in animal rituals for the remission of sins, in fact there sins in the old were only atoned for and this operation did not go beyond the flesh meanwhile the original intention of God is to deal with the root of sin(nature) not sins(actions) because what sponsors sins is SIN( nature) but all the Levitical priesthood did was to atone for sins thereby leaving the father(sin) of those sins intact so God accepted those rites temporarily until the fulness of time and an appointed time came, God sent his Son to redeem them that were under the law (Gal 4:4-5).
In fact let me show you another scripture that actually reveals the original intention of God as touching the remission of sins or probably let me first show you how that the old testament rituals can not make one perfect or take away sins. Heb 10:3-4 "but in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year 4. For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Now that the scripture succinctly told us it was not possible that those rituals should take away sins then what is the remedy? Let's read from verse 5 of Hebrews 10, "wherefore when he cometh into the world he said, sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not but a BODY hast thou prepared me, so Jesus said in verse 7 Lo I have come to do thy will as it is written in the volume books. It shows clearly to us that Jesus' body was the one God was interested in because he's the only sinless lamb of God who is perfect to redeem the human race and when Jesus heeded this call we were sanctified once for all(Heb 10:10, Heb 2:14) and as believers when these truths animates your entire being you can not be trapped in sins(actions) because you no longer have the nature and someone is saying since I no longer have the nature how come I still have the motion of sins? The problem you have now is unrenewed mind because when you got born again only your spirit experienced that reality so it is expedient that your soul and body comes into the experience of your spirit that's why the bible admonishes in Romans 12:2 Be not conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewal of your mind. So your entire soul region needs mind renewal by the word of God in order to be able to live above the motion of sins and when your soul experiences this your body also must conform.
We'll continue from here here in my next piece, there are still alot the God's Spirit want us to capture.
Are you blessed?
Stay blessed and remain connected.
