<TITLE>08. Par 29-33</TITLE>L-29 That's the reason brethren that we're holding up the adoption of God, as our difference of life, and fussing, and quarreling amongst one another, is the reason the veil can't drop behind us and we can go into that Presence of God. That's right. We're so interested in our denominations. We're so interested in what the next fellow, what... "What is that to thee, follow thou Me." It's an individual affair between every minister. How a minister ought to always get alone to himself, even before he preaches, before he prays. Before he does anything he should get alone with God in that quiet place, hid away with God. How that, that veil once coming down...

L-30 Now, the furniture in this--inside this veil was different from the outside. Way back in the congregation the laver that washed the beast... In the next veil was what? It was the--the burning of the beasts' bodies. And in there was the seven golden candlesticks on the--that represented the lamp, and give the light. And out into the outer courts was sunlight. In the first veil was artificial.
Notice, and when they walked in here by this lamp, then they go into the next court which was the holiest of holies, as they walked in there anointed. How that God has so planned it out; it's such a beautiful thing for us, as we see the great plan there of God's eternal salvation. How that His ministers should walk in this. How they should prepare themselves to enter into this.

L-31 Now, on the inside of this inner court the--called the holiest of holies, there was a piece of furniture setting there called the mercy seat. And the covenant was in the ark. And the ark had two Cherubims. And it was on the inside. That was the furniture inside of the holy place. Next, coming out was the golden candlesticks, then on out to the laver.
Now, it perfectly represents the age of Luther, Wesley, and Pentecost, exactly, the three steps or dispensations of His grace that's been given to mankind. We are in the last dispensation. I believe that with all my heart. See?

L-32 Now, notice, then also in this great move, how God brought them in there in this great place. Moses one time was told by God when the manna begin to fall, the manna was a type of life: Christ coming down from heaven and perishing here on earth, that He might give us life. The manna came from heaven, laid on the earth, and the people eat it to sustain life. Christ came down from heaven and become manna that we might live by Him.
And notice now, the people eating the manna, they had to get it quickly and eat it. Because when the sun rose, it wasn't long till it was perished, the type there of Christ, the Holy Spirit. The manna was a type of the Holy Ghost today. As God brought the church in natural with natural manna, he's bringing the church today spiritual on spiritual manna. When the church at first overcome, come over the Red Sea, type of the blood, passed over into the journey on the road to the promised land, manna rained the first night. Amen.
And when the church was passed over from life unto death on the day of Pentecost, God rained a spiritual manna out of heaven, that sustained the church, until Jesus comes again or we pass into the Millennium, into the promised land. Amen.

L-33 Oh, when they picked it up and they would eat it, they said it was sweet. "It taste like honey in the rock," they said. Taste like honey. David called it honey in the rock, and that's what it is.
Now, notice a type. The manna never did cease to fall until the day they entered the promised land; for forty years the same manna fell every day. Hallelujah! How you going to take the Holy Ghost and leave It in Pentecost, brother, it's been one continually Pentecost. Because the hardness of men's heart has failed to eat the manna... That's right.
