--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Way of Christ’s Atonement

The Word made a tabernacle among us (John 1: 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth; DA 23, 209; ED 36).

He veiled His divinity with humanity (Hbr 10: 20 By a new and living way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh;”) The divine and human nature were united in one Soul. Christ ‘s human heart was sinless because it was filled with the Word (Shewbread), the Spirit (Lamps) and continual communion with GOD (Incense).

Having developed a perfect human character, He was baptized. Finallly He gave Himself as a divine-human Sacrifice on the Cross. As He died the veil of His flesh was rent (5BC 1105), the divine and the human became one in Christ. Justice and Mercy, the Two Great Pillars of the Law, were united in the atonement and Christ opened the door of Salvation.

“In every part it (the Sanctuary) was a symbol of Him.” DA 29. Jesus said, “I Am the Door.” (John 10: 1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 9 I Am the door: by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture; Num. 3:16 And Moses numbered them according to the Word of the LORD, as He was commanded). He is the LAMB (John 1: 29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the LAMB of GOD, which taketh away the sin of the world). The white linen that surrounded the repentant sinner that entered the Door of

Christ Symbolized in the Sanctuary

The Court is His Righteousness (Rev. 19:8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the Righteousness of Saints; Jer. 23:6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby He shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS). We must be baptized be baptized into Christ, for He is the fountain of life (Gal. 3: 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ; Ps. 36: 9 For with Thee is the fountain of life: in Thy light shall we see light). He is the Subtance of the Holy Place – the BREAD, the LIGHT and the INCENCE (John 6: 35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst; 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I Am the Light of the world: he that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of Life; Eph. 5: 2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to GOD for a sweetsmelling savour). The Veil is a symbol of His Flesh (Hbr. 10: 19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the Holiest by the Blood of Jesus). His Life is the LAW, for the LAW was in His Heart (Gal. 6:2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the LAW of CHRIST; Ps. 40:8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart).

He is our MERCY SEAT or Atonement (1 John 2:2 And He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for our's only, but also for the sins of the whole world; Rom. 3:25 Whom GOD hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His Blood, to declare His Righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of GOD;).

He is the LIVING MANNA and The ROD that budded (John 6:33 For the bread of GOD is He which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world; Isa. 11: 1  The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. 2 Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against Me).

He is the BOOK of LIFE (Ex. 28:29 And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the Holy Place, for a memorial before the LORD continually; John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word(Jesus), and the Word was with GOD, and the Word was GOD; Rev. 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship Him, whose names are not written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world; 17:8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood).

He is the JUDGE and ADVOCATE (John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son; 1 John 2: 1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous:)

He is the GLORY of the Tabernacle (John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of Grace and Truth; Hbr. 1:3 Who being the brightness of His Glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the Right Hand of the Majesty on High:)

Every Spiritual blessing is in Him, both forgiveniss of sins and bloting out of sins, Former Rain (Eph. 1:3 Blessed be the GOD and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:) Christ is the Way to Perfection, the beginning of the way and the end of the way (John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I Am the Way, the Truth and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me; Ps 77:13 Thy way, O GOD, is in the Sanctuary: who is so great a GOD as our GOD?) We do not receive from Christ (1 John 5:10 He that believeth on the SON of GOD hath the Witness in Himself: he that believeth not GOD hath made Him a Liar; because he believeth not the record that GOD gave of His Son.

11 And this is the record, that GOD hath given to us Eternal Life, and this life is in His Son).

When we enterthe door of the court we find twu living “Strams”, Blood and Water (1 John 5:8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one; John 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced His side, and forthwith came there out Blood and Water, to wash away the Old Life and Resurrect the New. Then may we be united to the to the “Divine-Human Nature of CHRIST”. ISM 251
