Judeo-Christian Clarion — Teaching Letters

This newsletter we want to look at the duties of the priests. It is important for us to understand the tabernacle (which later became a permanent structure called the temple) and the priesthood so we, as believers in Yeshua, can understand how we are to live and how we are to worship.

On Mt. Sinai, God said, "You shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation." When Peter spoke on the Day of Pentecost, he was referring to what God spoke of on that first Pentecost, that those who would be in Messiah Yeshua would be the priesthood. But Yeshua was not a High Priest like Aaron, but as we see in the book of Hebrews, Yeshua is a High Priest in the order of Melchizedek. So who is Melchizedek?

God spoke to Moses and said, "You shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and beauty." These garments were a picture of the dignity and beauty connected with serving God.

We have been looking at God’s holiness in His people and in their place of worship. What we need is truth; it is the truth that will set us free, it is truth that will make us strong, and it is truth that will allow us to be blessed. We are going to be looking at what is missing in the lives of Christians today.

Idolatry is a misunderstood concept; we just tend to think of a wooden image. Is this commandment done away with? I think it is for today even more so.

We want to look at a time in Yeshua's life that was considered very controversial. I suppose it was the most radical time in His life. It was when He overturned the tables of the money-changers in the Temple.
