<TITLE>12. Par 77-81</TITLE>L-77 Notice again another great thing here. I wouldn't skip it by, because He was represented in the offerings, the meal offering.
I remember one time they had a school, in the Bible, called the school of the prophets, and it was quite a school. And we find out that Elijah went up there to that school one day, and they said, "We..." They prayed him to leave, said, "When you're around here, things are too straight." So they wanted him to get away.
And they went out to get him a dinner. And a bunch of the priests went out, or prophets, to get some peas, to make a dinner for him. And when they did, they gathered a great big apronful of them; and when they come back, it was wild gourds, which was poison, and they throwed them into the pot. And the pots begin to boil, and they, somebody, said, "Alas, there is death in the pot. Now we can't even eat."
And Elijah said, "Bring me a handful of meal." And he took the meal and threw it into the pot, and said, "Eat. The pot is healed."

L-78 The meal offering was Christ. Every burr had to be set the same, and every little piece of meal had to be ground the same, for the meal offering. Showing, that, He is the healer. He substitutes, and takes away death, and puts Life; by the two laws. Hallelujah! Where death is, one place; when Christ comes in, Life comes in. He's the same yesterday, today, and forever. And where there was death, there became Life, because that Christ was brought in, the meal offering.

L-79   What a great lessons that these things would be if we take time to break them out! Now notice, not one word of the shadows fail. Not one word ever failed, of the shadow. Everything typed perfectly.
He is God's chosen place of worship, and God's Name is given to Him. He is God's place of worship, and God's Name is given to Him. He is the Word of God, and He is the Name of God. He is both the Word of God and the Name of God. "He was the Word made flesh." He was the Word of God, Lamb of God, Name of God, and was God. That's what He was, the chosen and only place of worship to God.

L-80 And God refuses any other place besides in Jesus Christ; you cannot worship Him anywhere. He said, "In vain they do worship Me, teaching for Doctrine the commandments of man." Today we have creeds, dogmas, and everything, that teaches this is the way and that is the way.
And Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man can come to God except by Me." In other words, "I am the Door to the sheepfold. All without are thieves." He is the only approach. He is the Door. He is the Way, the Truth, the Life, all that there is; the only entrance, the only place, the only worship, the only Name.
Everything is tied to Jesus Christ. All the Old Testament is tied to Him. The New Testament tied to Him. And the Church today is tied to Him, by the Word of His commandment. There is not another place, or another Name, or anywhere, where God ever promised to meet a man; only in Jesus Christ, His chosen place of worship.

L-81   Notice, God has promised to meet His worshipers in only this one place, and that is of His Own choosing; not of our choosing, not of our thinking; but of His thinking, His choosing. And it would be the place where He put His Name, where He chose. So we find out that we find where His Name was, what He chose, by His Own choosing.
