• We are about to look into the third sealing which takes place in the Holy of Holies.

     The golden crown of the high priest. The Bible says that no flesh should glory in his presence. Exodus 28:36-38 the crown of pure gold had a seal upon it "Holiness unto the Lord" we have looked at the breastplate of the high priest which speaks of our new nature, and then we looked at the onyx stones on the shoulders which spoke of power and anointing. Now we are looking at our relationship to the Lord. Both the breastplate and the stones had the names of the 12 tribes written upon it but this one thing, which is the golden crown, had something different written upon it. The gold speaks of the glory of God, the divine attributes of the Father. The crown was put upon blue lace. Lace is a garment, blue is symbolic of the heavenly nature of God the Father.

     Our flesh is still present in the outer court, the place of the Cross, the new birth, the baptism of blood, the first heaven. At the outer court we did not lose the ability to sin but we gained the power to resist sin. Our flesh still exists in the holy place, the second heaven, Pentecost, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, the place called Jericho. But at the Jordan where we experience death, death to the flesh, full redemption of the purchased possession, this is the third sealing. The Holy of Holies, this is the place where we come to perfection, the place where we are clothed upon by his heavenly nature, the blue lace, the high priest wearing that crown of pure gold in his forehead, typical of us putting on the mind of Christ.

     Notice that in the Holy of Holies its no longer dealing with the flesh, perfection is not a state of mind but a state of holiness and fullness in the spirit. In the outer court we are still under attack by the devil and we therefore still have need to overcome in the outer court. In the holy place, though we have acquired power and anointing, we still have need to overcome for we are not yet perfect and still commit sin as we are tempted every day. However, in the holy of holies, there is no more war, no more overcoming for at this place, we have arrived and made perfect and are clothed upon and do bear the fullness of his glory, and have become one with him. Paul said "I press for this" this is the ultimate inheritance, the ultimate prize, the engraving of his glory in our forehead, in our minds, the putting off of the old nature being filled with all the fullness of God.

     We have been taught through the ages and believed in what we were taught with a passion religiously, if God himself came and declared to us that some of the things that we were taught was incorrect, we might ask him if he is sure. Traditions are built upon truth, tradition never changes but truth is ever changing.

Be blessed.
