The Merciful Judgments of God

Date: 11/01/2007 Issue Number: 232

The law is summarized in Deut. 6:5, 5 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. If we were to write a Constitution for a Christian Nation, this would be the summary at the top of it. It would serve as the overall statement of intent, by which we might know the spirit of the law. To this, we might add the second part, as Jesus did, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Matt. 22:39). The Ten Commandments are next. These are the headi

The Cross and its Effect

Date: 10/01/2007 Issue Number: 231

The purpose of priesthood is twofold: (1) to mediate between God and man; and (2) to present and teach the word, whether written or spoken. The first purpose has to do with establishing our relationship with God by means of Covenant. The second purpose has to do with upgrading and deepening our understanding of that relationship. Thus, it might be said that the first purpose is to provide us with justification, and the second with sanctification in the progression toward glorification. The Foundations of Chri

Effective and Defective Priests

Date: 09/01/2007 Issue Number: 230

Leviticus 21:17 says that no descendants of Aaron that had defects were allowed to minister to God in His sanctuary. This was, of course, one of the provisions of the Old Covenant, which was applied to those with physical defects. But when we look at the law through the eyes of Christ and apply it in a New Covenant manner, the law takes on an internal application. The law will always be interpreted according to the covenant that defines a person’s relationship with God. The Old Covenant focuses upon external

Qualifications in Approaching God

Date: 08/01/2007 Issue Number: 229

The Tabernacle of Moses and the Temple of Solomon each had an outer court, a Holy Place, and a Most Holy Place. The citizens of the Kingdom were allowed to approach God as far as the outer court. The priests were allowed to approach God in the Holy Place. The High Priest was allowed to approach God in the Most Holy Place once a year. One’s nearness to God was determined by these three positions in the Kingdom. To these were added a fourth distinction in later years, when they erected a dividing wall in the o

God's Household

Date: 07/01/2007 Issue Number: 228

The Temple in Jerusalem was called God’s House, as Solomon indicated in 1 Kings 8:13, saying, 12 Then Solomon said, ‘The Lord has said that He would dwell in the thick cloud. 13 I have surely built Thee a lofty house [beth], a place for thy dwelling forever’ [olam, “indefinitely”]. (Incidentally, here the word olam is used, which does not mean “for all time.” Obviously, not only was the temple destroyed after only two centuries, but also the presence of God left that plac

Jerusalem's 40 Years of Grace

Date: 06/01/2007 Issue Number: 227

In Ezekiel 4 the prophet was told to intercede for Israel and Judah according to specific time cycles for each nation. God told him first to lie on his left side for 390 days for the house of Israel—the northern tribes that had been taken into the Assyrian captivity a century earlier. Then he was to lie on his right side for 40 days for Judah and Jerusalem, as we read in Ezekiel 4:6 and 7, 6 When you have completed these, you shall lie down a second time, but on your right side, and bear the iniquity of the

Despising the Birthright

Date: 05/01/2007 Issue Number: 226

Genesis 25 tells the story how Esau sold his birthright for a single meal. Verse 34 concludes, “Thus Esau despised his birthright.” Hebrews 12:15, 16 comments on this: 15 See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springing up causes trouble, and by it many be defiled; 16 that there be no immoral or godless person like Esau, who sold his own birthright for a single meal. We are not told how Esau obtained a root of bitterness in his life. But the comment in Hebrews 12 is fou

God's Last Will and Testament

Date: 04/01/2007 Issue Number: 225

From the beginning, the earth has been man’s inheritance under God. God owns the earth by right of creation, but He was the Creator, not the inheritor. To be an inheritor, one must receive it from another who has died. Since God had no predecessor, it cannot strictly be said that the earth is His inheritance. The earth is man’s inheritance. The lawful process of giving us the inheritance began when Jesus died on the cross. Hebrews 9:15-17 says, 15 And for this reason He is the mediator of a new covena

The Divinely Protected Ones

Date: 03/01/2007 Issue Number: 224

When the nation of Judah became so lawless that God hired the Babylonians to destroy Jerusalem and Solomon’s Temple, Ezekiel wrote that God would protect and spare those whose hearts were right. The Six Destroyers of Jerusalem In Ezekiel 9:1 the prophet saw six destroying “men” that God had called to destroy Jerusalem. Verse 2 speaks of one of the six as “a certain man clothed in linen with a writing case at his loins.” In verses 3 and 4 we read, 3 . . . And He called to the man

Jehoiachin: The Captive King

Date: 02/01/2007 Issue Number: 223

Jehoiachin was the King of Judah in Jerusalem for just three months before being taken captive to Babylon in 597 B.C. He was just 18 years old at the time. His story is told in 2 Kings 24:8-16, and the final story of his elevation above the other captive kings in Babylon is told in 2 Kings 25:27-30. Jehoiachin’s story is also recorded in 2 Chron. 36:9, 10. In this account Jehoiachin is said to be just 8 years old when he began to rule, rather than 18. However, it is likely that his father, Jehoiakim, had ma

Peace on Earth

Date: 01/01/2007 Issue Number: 222

When Jesus was born, a host of angels appeared to some shepherds in the vicinity of Bethlehem, saying (Luke 2:14, Young’s Literal Translation), 14 Glory in the highest to God, and upon earth peace, among men—good will. In every Christmas season men talk, sing, and pray about the peace on earth revealed to the shepherds. But this peace has eluded the earth for the past 2,000 years. We seem no closer to the Age of Peace than in the days of Jesus’ birth. Did Jesus really give us a path to peace? P

The Three Signs Given to Moses

Date: 12/01/2006 Issue Number: 221

God gave Moses three signs while he was at the burning bush. They are recorded in Exodus 4. They are: The sign of the law and the cross The sign of resurrection The sign of blood These three signs prophesied the manner in which the people would come to believe in the true God. If they did not believe the first sign, they would believe the second. If they did not believe the second, they would believe the third. But in the end, all would believe. The First Sign: the Law and the Cross Exodus 4:
