<TITLE>14. Par 116-123</TITLE>L-116 But, oh, brother, when it was sprinkled that day with the Blood of Jesus Christ, a Spirit of God rent the seal from the top to the bottom, and brought man back. Not only kept him away from the Presence of God, but He brought him back into the Shekinah Glory, into the Presence of God; that he--his is dead life.
Jesus said, "If they did this in a green Tree, what will they do in a dry?" And if they did that to Him, being the green Tree with Life, what will it be to the old dead formal tree that has no Life (See?), now when the wrath of God is poured out? How can an old dead formal tree stand it, when the green Tree, it even perished the green Tree, and sent It to hell? The wrath of God poured out for disobedience of sin, sent the green Tree to hell, what will it do in a dry tree when it strikes it? "If the righteous will be scarcely saved, where will the sinner and ungodly appear?" That person that rejects the Way, that person that knows better, that person that's been revealed to him, and he still refuses to walk in God's Way, what will happen to that person? What's it going to be?
Yes, He broke the seal that kept us from the Shekinah Glory, because sin was finished.

L-119 Now. And now, the seal is a sign of a finished work. And we know that a seal, like you're going to seal a box car, well, they put all the work in it, and store everything up, and then it's sealed till its destination. Any seal is a finished work. When you write a document, then it's sealed at the end. Never sealed until it's finished.
Now, the blood of goats and heifers, and so forth, would not take away sin. But when this was finished at Calvary, it took away sin.

L-121 Now, watch. At the garden of Eden to keep people from getting back to that Tree, God set an Angel there as a seal, with a sword turning all ways to guard that Tree. And when he made his worship, and he came down... Now remember, Who was at that Tree? Who was that Tree? It was Jesus.
The tree of death was your mother; she brought you here in natural life. Christ is the birth through spiritual Life. All that live by the woman, die; all that's borned of the Man, lives. All that comes by the woman is natural; all comes from the Man is spiritual, not the man here, the Man Christ Jesus.

L-123 And watch the Tree, guarded; it could not get back, because there's no offering appropriated to take sin away. So therefore, when they come to worship, the Shekinah Glory was behind the veil, sealed off from them. It was sealed off from them from the garden of Eden.
But when the day of Pentecost came, brother, when Jesus died there at Calvary and finished the work, He didn't seal man out; He sealed man inside with Himself. And now we're sealed up and shut up in the Presence of the Shekinah Glory. Not only are we sealed in, but we're sealed in eternally. Amen. Oh, I love that: sealed inside now. That's the real Easter Seal, "For by one Spirit we are all sealed into one Body."
You say, "Is the Holy Ghost a Seal?"
Ephesians 4:30 said, "Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God whereby you're sealed until the day of your redemption." That's the genuine, true Easter Seal. Shows that sin has been paid for, for you, and God has accepted you, and you're sealed into Christ by the Holy Ghost. Sin is finished. The Eternal Seal has been finished.
