Give Me This Mountain- Part 2

This media has been presented to you by the Maryland Men of Faith, where men are challenged and encouraged to form the character of Christ.

For more information, please visit www.mmof.org.

Our Father in Heaven, thank you, dear God, for keeping us up to this point.

We thank you for the food, the presence of your spirit, the protection of your angels.

As we enter into this presentation, dear God, bless us again I ask.

Enlighten your sons, give me the right words to speak, dear God.

Let me speak with a consciousness for your glory.

In Isaiah 42 verse 8, your word says, I am the Lord, that is my name.

So you take all the glory, Father, but please lavish your blessings upon us.

Not just in this room, but bless every presentation, I pray, bless these men these brothers of mine and bless the families day God in Jesus name.

I pray amen Let's go to Exodus 25 My emphasis again is the law of God Exodus 25 And the reason why I'm stressing the law, God puts different burdens on different preachers.

1 of my burdens is the law, the reliability of scripture, the divinity of Christ, that sort of thing.

In Great Controversy page 582 paragraph 1, Elowite writes, From the very beginning of the great controversy in heaven, it had been Satan's purpose to overthrow the law of God.

It was to accomplish this that he ended upon his rebellion against his Creator and though he was cast out of heaven he has continued the same warfare upon the earth.

So you read Revelation 12 verse 7 the Bible says and there was war in heaven.

The word war occurs twice in Revelation 12.

In 17 it says, and the dragon was wroth with the woman and went to make war.

It began in heaven, the battlefield was changed, but the battle is the same.

He considered it too narrow, too restrictive, and he wanted to give freedom to the angels.

And let them make me a sanctuary that I may dwell among them.

But listen this time against the background of John 1 14 and the word was made flesh and dwelt among us.

The Greek riddik for dwelt means tabernacle pitched a tent pitched a tabernacle.

Go to Revelation 21 3, I heard a great voice from heaven saying, Behold the tabernacle of God is with men.

The same Greek word, God's very presence in the new world will be with us very personal.

Now, keeping those 2 verses in mind, let's read Exodus 25 again.

So in a very general sense, the sanctuary, all of it as a unit, represented Christ.

The sanctuary, you dig everything together, that represents the presence of God.

Let them make me a sanctuary that I may dwell among them.

Now Let's review the components of the sanctuary as we know it.

What is it that demarcated the outer court?

And of course the door through which you came was a ornate and decorated and colorful, but a fence itself was white.

It wasn't so high that you couldn't see the sanctuary.

When you entered the door, you came into the courtyard.

And off to the left was the place where the animals were tied before there was sacrifice.

Now, you entered another veil and you entered into what compartment?

Right up against that veil on which blood was sprinkled so frequently.

Now I gave you a quotation this morning that says Christ was the Gospel.

Now what we will do, we will look at the various items of the sanctuary, whether it's the door, the bread, the table of supper, the liver, the altar, the sacrifice, the priest, we look at all of those things and see what we learn.

John is my second favorite book of the Bible.

Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
