The Tabernacle: A dettailed portrait Of Jesus Christ (1)

I want to bring the review of this series to a conclusion so as to move on. The series on the Tabernacle is the best christian publication I have read which crystalises the truth about the works of Jesus to save the mankind from the bondage of sin. The series has enabled me to see with clear undestanding how the message of the salvation of the Soul should be taught to sinners for them to understand and believe that the Lord has already blotted out all the sins of the mankind for the forgiveness of the sins of all belivers through His baptism, and His death on the cross was for the remission of the sins that are past. This series is teaching us to know this one thing, that without puting our faith on the Baptism of Jesus where sins of the world were passed on to the Lord by John the Baptist by the Laying on of hands would mean that we do not accept the Law of the remission of sins given by the sacrificial system which God gave to Moses for the people of Isreal. This means that the love of God revealled by our Lord Jesus on which the Law hangs would be negated, and we would be regarding God to be a liar (God forbid). Therefore the series has enabled me to see that accepting only the cross of Jesus and prayers of repentance as the basis for our salvation or to gain the born again experience is subtracting and adding to the word of God, and leads to actual sin against God.   The Altar of burnt offering is of great significance to all believers, because it was the place of judgment and condemnationin which the Israelites were locked in because of their sins. The materials of the Altar of sacrifice were overlaid with bronze signifying judgment. Any Israelite who broke the 613 articles of the Law besides the ten commanments had to offer an unblemished sacrfice for the remission of sin. They had to bring the offering to the altar of sacrifice, placed their hands on the head of the sacrifice before blood was drawn and springled on the four Horns of the Altar and on the offender, with the rest of the blood poured on the ground below the alter of sacrifice. This was the faith that enabled sinners to abide in the camp of the Israelites. All Israelites walked in this faith looking to the time when the Lord would come to fulfil the Law of the remission of Sins. Every sacrifice offered on the Alter of burnt offering was pointing to the Lord Jesus. This Altar of Burnt Offering was given to Moses by God according to Exodus 27:1-8.   There was another vesel that was placed between the Altar of sacrfice and the Tabernacle of Meeting, the Laver. This Vesel was made of Bronze, again signifying judgment (Exodus 30:17-21. The Laver was filled with water for the priests to wash their hands and feet before entering into the sanctuary to perform their services. The Laver is to help us to believe that we are ceansed of all our sins by believing that our Lord Jesus took our sins once and for all times in the baptism which He received from John the Baptist by the laying on of hands. He not only cleansed us from our past sins, also from our actual sins which we comit daily due to our weaknesses. In the Bible we know that water stands for the word of God. But the most importance of water is the Baptism of Jesus. Eph.5:26 says,"that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word," and John 15:3 says, "you are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you."   Today, I have started again reading Revelation,and was meditating on the words of Jesus to the seven churches in Asia Minor. I came to realize that although these words of our Lord were addressed to the messengers (the Apostles), it is because of what was happenning in those seven churches. It means these words of Jesus was also addressing the end-time churches in our times (Rev.2:1-3:1-22). The Lord commended some of the churches, and also highlighted the errors of some them. IN all He emphasised that they must repent, else He would come quickly and removed their Lampstands (the churches). The churches which did not compromise with the world the Lord encouraged them to hold on to their faith and go through all the tribulations they suffered. I came to the realization that without the faith of Gold given to believers through having faith in the righteousness of God ( the Baptism, the Spirit and the Blood of Jesus) it would be impossible to make it to the end in the face persecution and tribulation.   I am so thankful to the Lord for raising the Newlife Mission to preach the word of truth to the Nations. I would like also to encourage readers of this review to know that there will great trials that this world will experience of which what we are seeing now is the tip of the icebgerg. Only by walking in the faith of the water and the Spirit can the Helper, the Holy Ghost strenghten believers to abide in the Lord. I recommend believers to do all that is possible to understand the series on the Tabernacle and other series to enable them to stand firm in the faith of the righteousness of God.   The Lord Jesus is our perfect Saviour who came to fulfil all the righteousness of God for the mankind. We must have faith in the three works of Jesus and in the word of God to be saved from condemnation. He is the One who came by Water and Blood.A-men.

Awesome Books!

I have made it a goal to read every single one of Paul C. Jong's books! Beyond the shadow of a doubt, I know that God, Himself, is talking to me through Pastor Jong!  Sometimes I will pray and ask God a particular question, and soon after I will pick up the book I am currently reading at that time, and invariably, the answer I need to the question I had just asked God in prayer is answered! Paul Jong's books are amazing! God is MOST definitely speaking through him! Praise The Lord! Glory To His Name! Amen!

The Tabernacle: A dettailed portrait Of Jesus Christ (1)

I had spent several years attending different churches in an attempt to experience peace of heart through the word. I was made free from the teachings that came by man's wisdom when I was introduced to the teachings of the Newlife Mission. The difficulty I had was misbelieve of the born again life given to us because of the grace of Jesus Christ due to incorrect teaching by many denominations. However, it was the teaching contained in the two series "The Tabernacle: A detailed portrait of Jesus Christ" that completed the picture for me and gave me freedom from convenient teachings on the subject of the born again experience.   These two series of the book has shown me that we cannot benefit from the faith of the work of the cross of Jesus without the faith of the work of the baptism of Jesus, because Baptism was the means by which Jesus Bore our Sins. The word of God in Rom.6:23 clearly tells us, "For the wages of sin is death". This is shown by the construction of the Fence of the Tabernacle: the pillars were made of acacia woods. The Bronze sockets placed at the bottom of these pillars, and the Silver Capitals capped on on top of them; all these tell us that sinners must be judged once for their sins. Believers of the grace of the Baptism of Jesus are clothed in the  Faith of the work of the Baptism of Jesus where the sins of the world wre passed onto Jesus' body. This the faith that saves and make believers free from the condemnation of Rom.6:23. This is the faith of the born again experience. The faith of the Blue thread is the faith of the Baptism of Jesus, and tells us that Jesus took all our sins upon Himself through baptism.   The fine woven linen seen on the gate of the Tabernacle stands for the intrcate Word of God that shows how eaborate God has saved us through the works of righteousness which Jesus fulfilled for all of the mankind.   For our Lord to save us and put us in the church of God, the word of Salvation has been revealed through all the items that are seen in the Tabernacle. All the Utensils outside the Sanctuary, and their materials were all necessary to turn sinners into righteous followers of Jesus. All these uyensils were necessary for sinners to enter and live in the Kingdom of God, but the most important among them was the blue thread (Jesus' baptism). The colours of the Gate of the tabernacle, blue, purple and scarlet stand for the three works of Jesus that are needed by us when believing in God. Then how do we believe in God to be saved from our sins? The answer is this:- 1 Jesus came to this earth in the form of a man and took all our sins upon Himself in His Baptism; 2  Jesus is God(Spirit); and 3  Jesus died on the cross to bear the condemnation of all the sins accepted on to Himself through John the baptist at the Jordan River. This the true faith that is revealed by the Tabernacle's construction, and is needed for sinners to be saved and become the righteous.   What then is the meaning of the hangings of the fine white linen over the pillars of the court of the Tabernacle? This manifests God's holiness, and means that sinners cannot approach the house of God (Sanctuary)except saved through believing in the three ministries of Jesus Christ manifested in the blue (baptism of Jesus), purple (Spirit - Jesus is God), and scarlet (death on the cross. This the way God has shown the whole mankind (sinners) to know that Jesus Christ has blotted out all their sins and saved them through the Water, the Blood and the Holy Spirit.   We can see from the Tabernacle that all the materials, the utensils, the colours even to the construction of the Gate and all the hangings of the fenc were all necessary to show the completeness of the word of God that turn sinners to righteous if they belive correctly. From the Gate of the Tabernacle it is clear that God has saved us, who were like acacia wood, from sins through the blue thread (Jesus' Baptism), the purole (Jesus is God), and scarlet thread ( the blood of the cross) Therefore, God has clearly shown that only those who believe in this can enter the Sactuary, the House of God or the true church of God.

Heretics, Who Followed Sins of Jeroboam

Paul C. Jong's books are all sincerely the 'MEAT' of God's Word that only those who are ready to get off the "MILK" should partake of!!  These particular titles,"Heretics, Who Followed Sins of Jeroboam" (1 & 2) are most definitely much food for thought!  In my past I have been to many churches, while at the same time reading the Bible often for myself, and have asked God so many times, "Why doesn't any of the churches I have ever been to even preach what is actually in the Bible, they do in part, but not all?" I would ask God this time and again!  These 2 books correspond with my question to God, and answer many of my questions!  If anyone is not ready for the meat though they are not ready to hear and know the truth! One should actually read, "Are You Truly Born Again of The Water and The Spirit" and receive the remission of sins by believing the 'The Gospel of The Water and the Spirit' before even touching any of the other books! If one doesn't believe in this, then you will never be able to grasp "the rest of the story"!

Have you Truly been born again of the water and the Spirit?

Thanks be to God and to Paul C Jong and his co-workers. I have been living with the notion of only believing in the death of Christ at the cross but I learnt that if I don't believe in his Baptism, I still have sins in my heart and so I am a sinner.Thanks for saving my soul from perishing!
