We will moving into the feast of Booths but before I
do so I wont to say this about the Jewish Feasts. When seen in the
light of understanding which only the Spirit of Truth can give to
those within the Body of Christ, each feast has been filled to over
flowing with the essense of Christ within those who have received Him
in Grace. For instance the Passover was first used to commemorate
Israel's Exodus from the house of bondage to Egypt. To day this is
for the Christ-Like and excapt from both the world and religions hold
of deception on those of the world. This includes mans tradition of
religious celiberations of bondage to Satan and his decption. The
second is the feast of weeks or Pentecost in which the giving of the
Law to Moses is celiberated. Again for those who share the
ontological essense of Christ within them they to celiberate the law
now written in their hearts and imbossed on their minds as a daily
celiberate. Thirdly comes the celiberation of the feast of Trumpets
as the harvest of first fruits. This again for the Christ-like ones
is a rememberance of those how the LORD raised in His ascenion when
He made a show of them (Daniel 12:2; Matthew 27:52-53, Daniel 9:24)
openly early on the first day of week when the earth quaked and the
stone was rolled back from His grave, and Colossians 1 and 2 explans
what then took place. Forthly we have the feast of Tabernacles or
Ingathering which a thanks giving for the hearvest. For a Christ-like
one this is what we all are looking forward to as the moment our
spirit leaves this realm to join the Lord in the air. As we have
already been sealed by His ontological essense within our body His
tabernacles as seen in Genesis 2. Fifthly is the feastival of
Dedication this one is hidden with the LORD'S Supper as a feast of
reconsecration of two lives becoming One in Him and is consummated in
our death in Him on the cross (Galatians 2 and Colossians). The last
one is the feast of Purim which celiberates the delivery of the Jews
from Haman, for those of Christ family this to is celiberated each
day as we stay the course which offers much resistance along the way
home in this life. Jesus in His body fulfilled all of these feasts
and did so much more.
Demon
possession is our next one found in John 7:20 which speaks in this
mannor beginning where Jesus comes in through the side door into the
synagogue during or just before the Feast of Booths also called the
Feast of Tabernacles. This feast speaks of His returning to infill
man with His ontological essense in the personage of the Holy Spirit.
Beginning at verse 10 to get the flow through the discourse on the
divisions on who Christ is to the end of verse 31, with the flowing
break down 10-13, 14-18, 19-24, 25-31: “But when His
brethers were gone up, then went He also up to the feast, not openly,
but as it were in secret (for this feast was to present His soon
coming and indwelling of all true believers as their bodies are the
booth in which He would Tabernacle again through sanctification, the reentry of GOD as seen in Genesis 2 and promised man in Genesis 3:15 through a death of sins hold).
Then the Jews sought Him at the feast, and
said, Where is He? And there was much murmuring among the people
concerning Him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay;
but He deceives the people. Howbeit no man spoke openly of Him for
fear of the Jews.
Now about the middle of the
feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. And the Jews
marvelled, saying, How does He know these letters, having never
learned? Jesus answered them, My
doctrine is not Mine, but His that sent Me.
If any man will do His Will, he shall
know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or
whether
I
speak of Myself.
He
that speaks of himself seeks his own glory: but he that seeks his
glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in
him.
Did
not Moses give you the law, and
yet
none
of you keep the Law? Why go you about to kill Me?
The people answered, You have
a devil:
who goes about to kill You? Jesus answered them, I
have done one work, and you all marvel.
Moses
gave to you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the
fathers;) and you on the Sabbath day circumcise a man. If a man on
the Sabbath day receive circumcision, that the Law of Moses should
not be broken; are you angry at Me, because I have made a man every
bit whole on the Sabbath day?
Judge
not according to the appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.
Then
said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this He, Whom they seek to
kill? But, lo, He speaks boldly, and they say nothing to Him. Do the
rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ [the
promised anointed one]?
Howbeit we know this man whence He is: but when Christ comes, no man
knows whence He is. Then cried Jesus in the temple as He taught,
saying, You
both know Me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of Myself,
but He that sent Me is TRUE, Whom you know not.
But
I know HIM: for I am from HIM, and HE has sent Me.
Then
they sought to take Him: but no man laid hands on Him, because His
hour was not yet come. And many of the people believed Him, and said,
When Christ comes, will He do more miracles than these which this man
has done?”
