<TITLE>26. Par 226-230</TITLE>L-226 And he went there and offered the blood on the mercy seat once a year. And while he was in there, he was privileged to see the Shekinah Glory, when the Pillar of Fire, the emerald Light that come down, that led the children out of Israel. He even smoked up the temple so no one could see it. The glory of the Lord fell till it was all smoked up. And He came in Hisself, went in behind the veil and settled down on the mercy seat in the holiest of holies, most holy place, it's called, holy of holies. And he had to be dressed a certain way, walk a certain way, anointed a certain way. He was a special person to go in there. How the congregation must've envied him.
But when Jesus died, the temple veil rent. Not only a high priest, but whosoever will can have that same anointing of the Shekinah Glory and walk a holy life, "Holy, holy, holy, unto the Lord," and approach in the very Presence of God, through the Blood of Jesus Christ before him. Take him in a "Lord Jesus, here lays a sick man; he's my brother. He's on the death bed right now to die. I'm approaching You." Holy, holy, holy, unto the Lord.
"What for?"
"As a high priest."
"What for?"
"In behalf of my brother." Holy, holy, holy, unto the Lord.

L-228 There you are. Your daily walk, your daily talk, your daily behavior, your heart, your soul, and all: Holy, holy, holy, unto the Lord. No roots of bitterness, no nothing else: Holy, holy, holy, unto the Lord. Holy, holy, holy, unto the Lord, as we begin to approach in behalf of our brother. Whosoever will may come, anointed, Blood in front of him, the Blood going before him playing, Holy, holy, holy, unto the Lord.
Now, that was the outer courts, the holy place. And the holies of holies, that was God's sanctuary on earth. Watch, it was typed after that one of heaven. Now, we're going to come right back again to this same Scripture. Oh, long as we go through Revelations, we can come right straight on back to this again. See?

L-230 Now, he... John, where's John standing? At the court. Let's just read just a little farther here so you get the picture.
And out of the throne proceed lightnings... thunders... voices: and there was seven lamps of fire... (Wait till we get to that.)... burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God...
Reflecting the Light of God into the church, right straight from the throne of God. Not through a seminary, not through some bishop; but from the throne of God by a revelation of the power of His resurrection, making Him the same yesterday and forever. Them seven stars standing there reflecting that Light, the Shekinah Light, from the Shekinah Glory from the holiest of holy. Seven lamps on fire, setting on top of these candlesticks, reflecting His Light, His colors of His power of His resurrection, right into the church. Amen. Hm.
And before the throne... was a sea of glass liken unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and around about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
And he goes ahead and he begins to give this--these beasts, the same thing Ezekiel saw: them guards, one like a man, one like a lion, and one like the eagle. What was it? Now, watch, when we bring them in and show that Lion of the tribe of Juda and all those different ones out of their tribes, that set on four walls, and they were guarding this mercy seat. Oh, what a picture. Oh, I just... There's great days ahead.
