<TITLE>06. Par 23-28</TITLE>L-23 That's how harlot Rahab's house stood on the walls of Jericho, when all the rest of it fell, because there was a scarlet thread down the outside. And God honored the scarlet streak.
That's what caused the children of Israel not to be slain in Egypt, the elder son, because there was blood on the door when the death angel passed by.
That's what causes the church today in the last plague, death... The church is the only one that'll live today and not go out into universalism and so forth, and out into this modernistic, social Gospel, is those who's got the Blood on the doorpost out here, of the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ: borned again. They know where they're standing, if they're really borned again. They'll not be entangled with every yoke, and every doctrine, and tossed about here, and there, and every cult. They know where they're standing: in Christ, through the Blood.

L-24 Notice. The heifer must be red. And red is a danger sign, yet, red is a redemption sign. And did you ever notice, our sins in the Bible, is represented as scarlet, red. Then why would red... Anything... As my mother used to say, the old saying, "The hair from the dog's back is good for the bite."

L-25 When Christ, in the Old Testament was made in a form of a serpent... Why would the Lord Jesus Christ represent a serpent? Because it--the serpent represented sin, and Christ was made sin to take away sin. You see it? Made sin to take away sin. The serpent represented sin already judged in the garden of Eden. That's the serpent on the pole.

L-26 And now, the--the scientific proof shows that if you take a red a piece of goods, or a red glass, and look at a piece of red, it doesn't look red. Red through red looks white. See it? Red through red... Then if Christ's red Blood... God looks through the Blood of Christ as red Blood, through us, as red sinners, it becomes white. Amen. So our sins are forgiven. When that Blood of Jesus Christ is once applied to the human heart, he's under the Blood and redeemed by the Lamb. "No more condemnation to them that's in Christ Jesus, that walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:1.

L-27 Notice. The heifer must be a red one. And now, she must never have a yoke on her neck. Oh, that has a great meaning too. Wish we had time to go into all this, but we don't. But the yoke meant that Christ was not yoked up with anything on this earth. He was not yoked up with any affiliation or organization. He was free to move where the Lord moved Him.
"Be not entangled in the yoke of bondage. Yoke yourself not amongst unbelievers; be ye separated." Christ is yoked to one thing, and that's His church, which is not a earthly organization, but a heaven-born group of people, that's regenerated by the Blood of His Own sacrifice. For He had no yoke of this earth, neither has His church: free, not yoked up with nothing. But they're free and yoked with Christ.
Now, the yoke must never be upon the neck, a very beautiful type of Christ. And now, here's something that's very outstanding. She must be killed in the presence of the high priest. Type of Christ again, as Caiaphas had to witness His death. And she must be killed without the camp. See? Take her out of the camp and kill her. And Christ died without the camp, killed in the presence of the high priest, as a witness, as a public testimony.

L-28 Oh, how wonderful those things are. Let's... Just let them soak down deep. And the more you let them come into you, the deeper it'll be, and the more rooted and grounded you'll be in the Lord Jesus. All those shadows and types (See?), that they all compiles together and comes right down to every individual believer in the world today. Just as free as it can be.
