<TITLE>24. Par 207-215</TITLE>L-207 You know, let's go back to Moses. Moses... We ain't got time to dig it up, so you just take what I'm saying. Moses, when he was give a vision up on Mount Sinai...
I want you to notice that this was not a throne of grace no more. There the blood had been gone, and the sacrifice was back again, and they had been accepted, and the blood was off the mercy seat. And it was now a judgment seat, because thunders and lightning issued off of it. Is that right?
Remember, it was like Mount Sinai. When Moses went on Mount Sinai, what happened? Thunder, lightning. And even if a cow, or a calf, or a sheep, or anyone even touched the mountain, it must die. The Bible said, "So great was the quake that even Moses feared it." And Moses... Said, "Take off your shoes here; you're on holy ground." Joshua the great warrior, was to take the children over and divide their inheritance, could only come halfway up the mountain.
Here stood Moses up there with the colors of God, flashes from lightnings and emeralds around him, watching them commandments be written. Standing in the Presence of God, that voice speaking back out, "Moses, where are you? Take off your shoes; you're on holy ground." A judgment seat, it was now, nothing could stand there but the redeemed. Sinner could not approach it at all (It's finished.), the judgment seat. All right.

L-212 Now, Moses made things on earth, made the tabernacle like the things that he saw in heaven. We know that, don't we? We find Paul did the same thing. Must have... Hebrews 9:23, that Moses made things just like he did. And Paul in his vision when he went up into heaven, when he taught that great Book of Hebrews, he must have saw in his vision the same thing that Moses saw. Because he said it, he taught that wonderful Book of Hebrews... how that Christianity was--was the antitype of the Old Testament. He was a great teacher; Paul was. Now, that was His throne then. Then in the...

L-213 Let's just...?... If I can't... I was going to pass this up, but I just can't do it. Where's the black... Did you take it back? Is it the back, Doc? Well, maybe I can make you see it from here. I--I... Now, look, get your pencils and paper, for I want to say something here. I--I was setting this morning as something came to me. Now, I'll tell you what I did; if you notice, I got it drawed on the back of here. See? Just draw it out as the Spirit gave it to me (See?), drawed it out on here for what it'd be. But I--I want to say something right here.
Now, God, when He is enthroned, He is then Judge. Is that right? When does the judges judge? When he comes to his judgment seat, a throne. Now, I want you to watch how the Old Testament was made, how the courts approaching to His throne was made, and how John saw here. We won't get to it this morning, all of it. But how John saw the same courts of the approach to Him, and what the approach to His courts is. Now, oh, I love this.

L-215 Now, in the Old Testament, there was what was called the congregation, where the people gathered. First thing, 'fore they come in the congregation, to enter in there, they had to come under the shed blood: outer courts. First they come to the waters of separation, where the red heifer was killed and made a waters of separation. That's the sinner who comes and listens at the Word.
That's how this great Jewish rabbi was just brought to the Lord, heard me preach on that down in--at Tulsa. At Tulsa, it was. We was there at Tulsa, Oklahoma. And he come over there, just a bystander. And he went after the service, he said, "I know." Said... He's one of the seven outstanding rabbis of the world. And he come over there, said, "I want to see what them Christian Business Men..." They called them Pentecostals. "I want to go over and set down and listen."
