Then we come to John 19 where we found this, “One of the soldiers with a spear pierced His side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.” And the following passages, Zechariah 13:1, 2-5; Revelation 1:5, 7:14.
In Zec. 13 beginning at verse 1 through the end of verse 6 we find this said; “In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness. And it shall come to pass in that day, says the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land. And it shall come to pass, that when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall say to him, You shall not live; for you speak lies in the name of the LORD: and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesies. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he has prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive: But he shall say, I am no prophet, I am an husbandman; for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth. And one shall say to him, What are these wounds in your hands? Then He shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of My friends.”
Next is Revelation 1 and beginning at verse 4 through to the end of verse 8; “John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you, and peace, from Him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before His throne; And from Jesus Christ, Who is the faithful witness, the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. To Him that loves us, and washed us from our sins In His own blood (keep in mind that any time this phrase or any like it are used they mean, In His death [or in His blood], burial, resurrection an ascension we are part of Him in this complete action as One unit with many parts), and has made us kings and priests to God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Behold, He coming with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen.
I AM Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, said the LORD, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.”
Next
we have this; “These
things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, a bone of
Him shall not be broken.” with this listing behind it, Exodus
12:46, Numbers 9:12, Psalm 22:14, 34:20, 35:10.
In Exodus 12 beginning at verse 42 through verse 48; “It is a night to be much observed to the LORD for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of the LORD to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations.
The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof: But every man's servant that is bought for money, when you have circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof.* A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat thereof. In one house shall it be eaten; you shall not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall you break a bone thereof. All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.
When a stranger shall sojourn with you, and will keep the passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.”
*In 1Corinthians 11 Paul states that we are to one have this revelation, that we are to do a self examination to see that we meat the true requirement for receiving the LORD'S Passover. If our heart be not circumcised then we are indeed unqualified to share the bread and drink of the Lord. This circumcision is not of mans doing but is of God's doing and is one of the mysteries revealed to Paul. For in chapter 10 he warns us that we cannot take the supper of devils and that of the LORD. This passage like many others go unheeded because of a false understanding of scripture in one of two ways, the first is the literal understanding and the second is a futuristic view, as a not yet thing. There may also be the veil of blindness caused by mans sin nature that keeps many from hearing and seeing the truth but in any case the primary cause is sin, in all three possibilities.
