The Day of Atonement

Introduction:

Why do the Jews (tribe of Judah) keep God's Days Holy, while the majority of the other eleven tribes of Israel do not? Because God said they would.
*Gen 49:10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be."

Next we will look at God's Holy Days past, present, future, and then forever starting with the last one first being delivered on the last great day 2011 as God instructs. This post is the third from the last one the "Day of Atonement".

Every single child of God ever given the breath of life no matter what their sins will keep God's Days Holy in his world. Each Holy Day is a memorial of God’s great plan from the foundation of the world Matt 13:35, Matt 25:34, Eph 1:4. All will know him from the least to the greatest Heb 8:11-12. God's children will celebrate with their almighty Father no matter which new planet in the new heavens he puts them on.
*Isa 65:17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
*Jer 31:34 "And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more".
Our creator will forgive all; those that want to be chosen to serve in his household for eternity must do the same Luke 6:37-38. Those being chosen for service Rev 7:4 will serve all of God's children throughout the coming millennium and beyond Rev 21:1, 1 Cor 6:3.
God is no respecter of persons Acts 10:34 all peoples of all nations filling themselves daily with every word of love Matt 4:4 can be grafted into service Rom 11:17, Rev 7:9.
*Gal 5:13-14 "For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself".

Seek first the KINGDOM of God Matt 6:33. Seek his world, there you find his merciful love because he created evil for us Isa 45:7 to teach us good & evil Gen 3:22, Ps 82:6 so that none of us will ever be punished like Satan and the demons will at their judgment 2 Pet 2:4.
God's kingdom is not about the letter of the law.
*2 Cor 3:6 "Who also hath made us able ministers of the New Testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life".
Be a minister of the New Testament. The Old Testament was under the (later click this link) complete rule of the devil. There was not grace or truth until the New Testament John 1:17. God's kingdom is about the spirit of the law. The spirit is LOVE Gal 5:22-23.
God is Love 1 John 4:8; he will not eternally harm anyone Titus 1:2.
God is our teacher Job 36:22.
*Rom 13:10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
*1 Peter 4:8 "And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins".
"The spirit giveth life”. Live by every word John 1:1-5 of the spirit of God (love) now delivered Rev 12:5, Rev 12:13 and rightly divided 2 Tim 2:15.
*Heb 7:19 "For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God".
Who teaches like our all wise heavenly Father Job 36:22, Col 2:2-3, Eph 3:14-19?
No one.
All the lessons we learn during earth school none of us will ever forget. They teach us the knowledge of good and evil for our eternal good in God's world. God is good John 3:16, Rom 14:11.
*Mark 10:18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.

Day of Atonement

Past-

*Lev 23:27-32 "Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD. And ye shall do no work in that same day: for it is a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before the LORD your God. For whatsoever soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people. And whatsoever soul it be that doeth any work in that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people. Ye shall do no manner of work: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. It shall be unto you a Sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your Sabbath."
What was so important about this Day of Atonement?
*Lev 16: 8-10 "And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat. 9And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. 10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness".
*Leviticus 16:21-22 "And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: 22 And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness".
*Lev 16:29-31 “And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you: 30 For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD. 31 It shall be a Sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever."
Cleansing the people of all their sins once a year was a two part process for the priests.
Part one: the sin offering.
Part two: the priest made atonement for the people to cleanse them.

Present-
This festival now is the memorial of the time when God sent his son as the sin offering. After the sin offering he was raised up and became the people’s high priest cleansing us all.
*Heb 6:20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec."
*Heb 7:27 “Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.”
*Heb 10:12 “But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God.”
*Heb 7:15-17 “And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest, Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life. For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.”
*Heb 2:17 “Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.”
*Heb 5: 8-9 “ Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him.”
God teaches all that need humbling to obey him.
*Heb 12:8 "But if ye be without chastisement, whereof ALL are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons."
Through Christ’s offering he became a priest and now being perfect he is the author of all of God’s children’s eternal salvation Lev 16:30.
*Hebrews 9:12 "Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us."
*Galatians 1:4 "Who gave himself for our sins, that he (might) deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father."
The word (might) is not in the original Greek text. Christ’s sin offering did deliver us from this present evil world. All will be reborn immortal into our Father's world each in our own order.
*1 John 2:2 "And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world."
The word propitiation means atonement.
*Romans 5:11 "And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement."


What does afflict your souls mean Lev 23:27?
It means you completely fast for twenty four hours (no food and no water) from even unto even.
No work at all.
God's word is a fire Jer 23:29. We offer ourselves on this day by literally living by every word of God (love) Matt 4:4. His word of truth, love, and grace is our sustenance.

*Romans 5:18 “Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.”

*Galatians 3:13 "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree"
What is the curse of the law that Christ redeemed ALL mankind from?
*Galatians 3:10 “For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.”
*John 7:49 “But this people who knoweth notthe law are cursed.” Satan has deceived the whole world.
We all have been cursed of the law.
God’s Holy Days were part of the law; they were to be kept forever. The Ten Commandments were part of the law; they were to be kept forever.
*Rom 7:14-25 “For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.”

*Rom 3:21 "But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets".
What is meant by the righteousness of God without the law?
*Gal 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.”
*Rom 13:10 “Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.”
Because of the loving sacrifice of our Savior born of a woman, we all are cleansed of our sins when we are reborn (resurrected).

*Matt 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."

*1 Corinthians 15:3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures"
*Hebrews 1:3 "Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high"
*1 John 3:8 …for this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he (might) destroy the works of the devil."
The word (might) is not in the original Greek text. Christ did destroy the works of the devil (eternal death and eternal hell) Rev 20:14 by his sin offering. This act of unconditional love lifted him up to be a high priest above all others Heb 7:15-17.
*Heb 2:14-15 “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he (might) destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.”
The word (might) is not in the original Greek text. Christ did destroy Satan’s power of death. It is foretold that a woman delivers the word (Jesus). Christ delivered all that have ears to hear from any fear of death.
Moses and Elias were seen talking to Jesus (the word John 1:1) by three witnesses Matt 17:1-10. This miracle took place to point to me. You must prove all things. Am I restoring all things? Does the word that I deliver turn the hearts of the Fathers to the children of God? Was I raised up of my brethren Acts 3:21-23? Am I exposing Satan’s lies of death and hell (darkness) proving I am the woman of Revelation 12? Am I like Elias, preaching alone from the wilderness Luke 1:17 delivering the true word (Jesus) that turns the hearts of the Fathers to the children? Am I preparing a people to live by every word of God Matt 4:4?
*Matt 17:11 “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.”
*Luke 1:17 “And (he) shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
The word (he) is Strong’s # 846, properly translated it would say “she”. The man child is delivered and is restoring all things through me.
*Isa 66:7 “Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.”
*Rev 12:5 “And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.”
*Rev 12:13 “And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.”
What Gospel is now being preached? The same one that Jesus preached.
*Mark 1:14 14 ... Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God."
*1 Timothy 2:6 "Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time."
The deliverer is now again delivered by a woman Rev 12:5, Rom 11:26. The time to deliver is due.

*1 John 4:9-10 "In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we (might) live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins."
The word (might) is not in the original Greek text. ALL will live through him. The word propitiation means atonement.
Our high priest has atoned for the people of all their sins Rom 8:7 next they will be reborn into immortality.
Summing things up…
Part one: Because our savior Jesus Christ who offered himself up for the sins of the whole world 1 John 2:2.
Part two: he is now the children’s high priest Lev 16:30 ALL now will live eternally through him Matt 22:29-30, Satan has no power.
This is the love of God: forgiving all for learning the knowledge of evil. Turn your hearts to all the children of God Luke 1:17.
*Eph 3:17-19 “That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.” *Revelation 1:5 “And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood.”

Future-

This Holy Day is the placement (judgment) day for the 144,000 saints of God. On this Holy Day the saints are at one with God.
*Rev 7:4 “And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel”.
*Mark 4:20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.”
*Luke 19:15-19 “And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds. And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities. And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds. And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.”
*Rev 20:4-5 “And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.”

Forever-

The Day of Atonement is placement (judgment) day for all the rest Ezek 37:26 according to their works of loving their neighbors as themselves. All will celebrate being at one with their Father.

*Rev 20:5 "But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished..."
*Rev 20:11-13 "And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works."

All are immortal at the judgment. This old earth and this old heaven are gone, there is no place yet for the dead. The dead stand before the throne of God and are judged by their works of loving their neighbor as themselves to receive their eternal placement.

*Leviticus 25:9-10 "Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land. And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family."
All will be judged and placed in God's world according to their works of love towards their neighbor. Love your neighbor as yourself as if you were them because God could have you to be them Matt 7:2.
*Rom 2:2 "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things."
ALL was planned from the foundation of this old earth.
Satan's rebellion Isa 45:7. The teaching the knowledge of good and evil to the children Gen 3:22 to become a god Ps 82:6. Christ's sacrifice Heb 9:26, 1 Pet 20. The calling of many to choose the few for service Matt 25:34, Luke 11:50, Eph 1:4, Eph 2:20, and all the children Rev 17:8, Heb 8:11.
All will one day be AT ONE with God.
