Passover/Easter
Letter # 13, April 2, 1999
Greetings from Jerusalem!
First, a comment on the last letter concerning the "Depressed Altar"
(i.e. the "Hole in the Ground" on the top of the Mt. of Olives too which
all Ash from the Sin cremations of the Temple, on Mount Moriah, were taken
and also where the "Bullocks" (whose blood was used in the Temple) were
cremated. Very close friends, Marilyn and Dale Wesson made the comment:
"Then, . as the wind would blow each evening from the West, away from God,
towards the EAST then it would create a vacuum as it blew over the
Depressed (Miphkad) Altar! The vacuum would literally pull all Ash out of
the hole, . even the corner remnants! NO vestige, NO remnant, No spec of
Ash would be left representing sin! God literally would remove the symbol
of sin (the Ash) as far as the East is from the West!" Thank you Dale and
Marilyn! This is exactly the point! The sin was totally GONE, by God's
Hand! But there is more. When the Red Heifer was offered with Hysup, etc,
at the same site, it was then offered with THAT DAY'S Ash from the Temple
before the wind began to blow. Then the Ashes of the Red Heifer were
gathered up to be used as the access back into the Temple, daily, in the
"Water Washing" after the "Blood Sacrifice"! The Red Heifer was
symbolic
of ALL sin (flesh)! (The Hysip and other ingrediants represented the
Spiritual.)
Blood and Water became the authority for access to the two Holy areas
of the Temple and presence of God! On the Tree/Cross was shed for you and
me the Blood and the Water! To fulfill the Law the event occurred at the
site of the Miphkad Altar on the top of the Mount of Olives as stated in
Hebrews 13: 10,11 and 12!
Now we have set the scene for a most important facet! In Numbers 2: 3
it is stated that the Tribe of Judah was to camp and pitch their standard,
on the East Side (of the Tabernacle/Temple site) toward the rising of the
Sun. A transliteration of Judah (including root meanings) would mean,
"with hands lifted up praising or celebrating"! Picture this in your mind
and Spirit.anything happening on the Mount of Olives and then going towards
the Temple Mount would be moving "from Praise", Judah, towards the Temple!
Anything happening on the Temple Mount and moving towards the Mount of
Olives (Judah) would be moving "towards Praise"! From Praise to Praise.
Left Hand . Right Hand, what happens on the Mount of Olives is what opens
the Temple and presence of God for mankind! Interesting relationship with
the first chapter of Ephesians!
So why do we believe that the "Ten Manifestations of God" will again
occur on the Temple Mount and what are they? Paul, in Acts 15 verses 16
and 17, quoted Amos 9 verses 11 and 12. Simply put."I will build again the
ruins there of and I will set it up.I will build it again as in the days of
old". Literally this would then mean, . as it was built and functioned in
the days of old so shall it again be built and function! The Tabernacle in
the Wilderness and the First Temple in Jerusalem had, as a part of its
East-West, Right Hand-Left Hand functioning, TEN + Manifestations of God.
I take it then literally, that these ten will be reinstated with a coming
"third Temple" era (which has three parts). This then agrees with Psalms
102:16, which states "When the Lord shall build up Tsion, He shall appear
in His glory." We think this will bring trauma to the majority of the
world and Christianity because they do not expect it to happen. We believe
the beginning of this is depicted in Ezekiel 39 verse 22 before the seven
years of Daniel's Seventieth Week!
What are the "Ten"? 1) A Cloud Pillar by day and 2) a Pillar of Fire
by night over the Holy of Holies. 3) No natural wind or breeze on the
Temple Mount, 4) nor any flies. 5) The Vail would move in and out in a
breathing action both seeable and hearable, called the Rauch Ha Chadesh,
which we translate, the Holy Spirit. (This would be a major reason why the
Children of Israel were commanded to go to Jerusalem, the Temple site,
three times a year as at those times the doors and gates were left open
making the Breathing Vail seeable!) 6) The Urim and the Thumim reflecting
onto the Menorah and God spelling out what He wanted to speak. (What do you
think those messages will be to reveal the Messiah in the future?) 7) The
Glory between the Angels wings on the Ark of the Covenant (the Ark was
found in 1967 by Orthodox Jews, with NO gentiles involved!) 8) Aaron's Rod
that budded, which was kept with the Ark of the Covenant and 9) the Pot of
Manna, which also was with the Ark of the Covenant. (Both of these, 8 and
9 then proved that the Priest had been in the presence of God AND that the
messages were from God!) 10) A fire would on occasion come down from
"Heaven" and consume offerings. All of these, #1-10 happened in the past,
many recorded in the Bible, and we expect them to happen again, which is
why many Gentiles will say to a Jewish person, "We perceive that God is
with you, can we go to the Temple Mount to worship with you?"
We have interesting days ahead, whether we are in agreement or not
over these issues but it is food for thought! May the Lord Bless!
In His Love,
