wouldn't you be adding to the scripture if you try to make Yom Kippur a day of mystical union?
because reading Leviticus 16 etc. it is very clear that this is the one day that the high priest enters behind the veil, and makes a sacrifice to atone for the sins of the nation Israel.
when Christ died on the cross, His sacrifice paid once and for all for sin - and the veil was torn. surely you don't deny that what He did fulfills the yearly ceremony that was a shadow of that very sacrifice He made?
as far as being one with God - He has given of us His spirit, which remains in us and dwells in us. that is not a work that we wait to see take place, but one one we wait to see the completion of.
no I do not add to scripture, but stick to it and try to understand.
do you think God made these feasts days for no rime or reason?
these annual days picture the different epochs in the plan of spiritual creation
—mark the dispensations, and picture their meaning.And, as the beginning of our
salvation was wrought by Christ’s death on the cross, so God said,
“This month [in the spring] shall be unto you the beginning of months …”

That The 14th day is the Passover. It is the first of God’s festivals.
In the 15th day is the feast. The seven Days of Unleavened Bread
sorry I was not finished , I need to continue in the meaning of the second feast
and the others also. you know also this takes pages to fill-up and time.
I prefer not to speak unless I can find it in the bible, and it says to
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
there was a wave sheaf offering during the days of U.L.B,
this represented Christ going to heaven to be acepted by our father.
the short of Leviticus 16, now in the symbol of this in Lev. day of atonement
first part this is a offering[Christ] going to heaven to be acepted by our father.
when the priest left and came out of the holy of holys, or when Shiloh comes,
that is when Christ returns from heaven, this happens after the last trumph feast.
and the high priest returning to place the sins finally upon the head of the live goat
represented the return of Christ, who will place the sins He bore on their author,
the devil, and who will send him away alive into [a desolate uninhabited wilderness]
—the “bottomless pit,” or abyss, of Revelation 20:3.
In the 19th chapter of Revelation, we have the prophecy of the Second Coming of Christ.
At the beginning of the 20th chapter, what is to happen?Exactly what the 16th chapter of
Leviticus shows. The devil is sent away—the symbol here used is the “bottomless pit”
symbol of an uninhabited desolate wilderness (Revelation 18:2)—and he is sent there
by a fit man—an angel from heaven. Now the devil is not killed. He does not die.
He is still alive a thousand years later—after the Millennium (Revelation 20:7).
-
“And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation. And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; the one lot
for the Lord, and the other lot for the scapegoat [margin,Hebrew, Azazel].”
The Comprehensive Commentary has:“Spencer, after the oldest opinions of the Hebrews and Christians, thinks Azazel is the name of the devil, and so Rosen …. The word scapegoat signifies the goat which went away.” The One Volume Commentary says: “The word ‘scapegoat’ in the av is not a translation.” It is merely an interpretation of the supposed meaning by the translators.
True, the English word scapegoat signifies “one who bears blame or guilt for others.”
But scapegoat is an English word, and is not a translation of the Hebrew word Azazel.
The word scapegoat, and the meaning attached to this English word, is not a translation of
the Hebrew word Azazel, and therefore it is not the word inspired originally.
Continues the One Volume Commentary:
“Azazel is understood to be the name of one of those malignant demons.”
-
Christ is the author of our salvation. Jesus took our guilt—our blame
—our sins—upon Himself as an innocent substitutionary sacrifice.
But justice certainly demands that God place right back on the head of the devil
his guilt—not our guilt, but his own guilt—for leading us into sin. We were guilty,
too—and our guilt Christ bore—yet all our sins belong right back on the devil as
his own guilt!
thus at-one-ment is when the devil will be forced into a 7th 1000 year period
of rest from decieving man, again one with our maker.
the devil is still walking around looking for someone to devour.
we are called to come out of this evil worlds ways, but the devil is still decieving it.
And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
its a time when in Isaiah 14:7 (KJV)
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.
I am out of time for now, but will get back to thread when I can.
happy Feast of Trumpets
