It Is Finished

Genesis 22:3-5 There was Preparation made before Abraham and Isaac left home. The wood, the fire, and the knife were all brought from home, and in the hand of the father. 

Genesis 22:1-5  Abraham had a vision of the place and through type and shadow we see the work of the father and the son. We also see the person, the promised son, the only son, the beloved son, being sacrificed. 

Genesis 22:1-5 Man doesn’t know God, doesn’t seek God, is at enmity with God, loves darkness, God is light and in him is no darkness at all. So, there must be revelation, and regeneration brought about by God. Man is dead spiritually, quickened by God. This brings obedience and worship. 

Philippians 3:3 Genesis 22 There has been a call to worship and God has given His commandment, or requirement. There is a cost for true worship, which many people are unwilling to pay. Therefore no true biblical worship can take place. Only shallow, fleshly, religious ceremonies that are an abomination to God. 

Philippians 3:3 True Christians worship God. This begins with God, through revelation man becomes aware of who God is, and who he is. 

Philippians 1:28-30 It is our tendency to be startled, afraid, anxious, and worried when adversity or trials come our way. But, the same same God that brought salvation, brings suffering, for his glory, and our growth. He commands us to rejoice even in trials. How? 

Philippians 3:3 We are the circumcision, what does this mean? It means, we are the true Christians, we are the people of God. First mentioned in Genesis 17, a mark, a token, a sign of being In covenant with God. Are you a Christian?

Philippians 3:1-3 Paul cautions the Philippians to beware of dogs, evil workers, the concision, (mutilators of the flesh). Works are a result of salvation, not a requirement for salvation.

Philippians 3:1-3 With the Judaizers following close behind him, adding works the law, and circumcision, Paul is about to tell the Philippians the truth, again. His first truth is,  Rejoice in the Lord! 

Exodus 25:10-22 The mercy seat covered the ark of the testimony, the requirements of God. Looking at he the mercy seat we see the Blood of the Lamb of God. So great is this mercy seat, that the sins of ever believer can be placed here and it WILL NOT COLLAPSE. Thanks be to Jesus Christ our mercy seat!!
