That was the time you could place biblical quotes in national monuments—now systematically been taken down.

 

Bible verse from Leviticus:25:10And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family., but lets read verse before it vs. 9 “Then you shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month; ON THE DAY OF ATONEMENT you shall make the trumpet sound throughout all your land. And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land.”

Day of Atonement – Freedom from Satan’s influence

I Have A Dream speech. ... Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!

 

Question:

If Feast days so important, why do such few people know about it? Day of Atonement – identified with the Jews.

1. God’s way of doing things – humbly

·      1 Cor:2:26-31 Not revealed to high and mighty

·      Birth and semblance of Christ – not palace, nor stunning looks

·      Mt. 11:28 Christ – meek and humble

·      Mt. 13:16-17; 1 Pet:1:10-12[10]Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:[11]Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.[12]Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

2. Then how can they be responsible

·      Only partly – have opportunity

·      Prophets, Noah -- witnesses

·      Luke:16:24-31[24]And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.[25]But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.[26]And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.[27]Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:[28]For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.[29]Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.[30]And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.[31]And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. – rich man – have the scriptures – even the dead

·      Jer:29:13And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. Search

·      Privilege

 

True purpose of this day – Jews don’t know it

            2 Cor:3:12-18[12]Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:[13]And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:[14]But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.[15]But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.[16]Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.[17]Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.[18]But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the LORD. Tripped up, only keep it physically, Rabbis give varying opinions not H.S.

 

Not rocket science – but God’s spirit working in you

 

N.T. reveals what the O.T. conceals

 

Lev:16:29-34[29]And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:[30]For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.[31]It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.[32]And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the priest's office in his father's stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the holy garments:[33]And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.[34]And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year. And he did as the LORD commanded Moses.; 7-10, 15-16; 20-22 – two goats – Azazel

NT – Satan – captured, sentenced, put away

Rev:20:1-3[1]And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.[2]And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,[3]And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. When hands placed – guilt

 

F. C. Club – Kerry Heesch – look forward about this day – Satan no longer around

1 Peter:5:7Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. Roaring lion no longer around

 

Things that will be removed  and replaced

 

Let’s count all the bad things that will be gone and will be replaced by good things.

 

Just like things about love, let us count these wonderful ways:

1. We saw main one – Rev:20:3And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. no more deception – no one trying to deceive others – imagine difference in thoughts, actions -- business dealings, marriages, government, difference in press

2. John:8:44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Originator -- No more violence, oppression – Freedom no more locks, guns, robberies—each respect other’s property.

3. 1 John:3:8-15[8]He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.[9]Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.[10]In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.[11]For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.[12]Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.[13]Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.[14]We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.[15]Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. No more envy, jealousy, hate – cooperate, cheer others on. Human nature changed.

4. No more wars – Is. 2:1-4  Star Wars – Star Peace

5. No more temptations – James:1:12-18[12]Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.[13]Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:[14]But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.[15]Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.[16]Do not err, my beloved brethren.[17]Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.[18]Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

 

Day of Atonement depicts that coming day. In the meantime, we must resist him and overcome.

So much to look forward to – finish with this final phrase: Remember, brethren, almost as important as longing for Christ’s Coming…is the longing for Satan’s Going!

 

Have a wonderful Feast and God-speed.
