......WHAT DOES THE SHADOW OF MESSIAH'S SACRIFICE MEAN ? .......
Heb 10:1 "For the Turah, having a 'SHADOW' of the good things to come, and not the IMAGE OF ITSELF of the things, was never able to make perfect those who draw near with the same slaughter OFFERINGS which they offer continually year by year. Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered ? Because those who served, once cleansed, would have no more consciousness of sins. But in those offerings is a reminder of sins year by year. For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins
Yahusha coming into the world said, "Slaughtering and meal offerings you did not desire, you did not delight in burnt offerings for sin, BUT YOU HAVE PREPARED FOR ME A BODY. He said, See, I come in the megilah of the book it has been written concerning Me - to do Your desire O Yahuah".
Yahuah did not want all these offerings, which are offered according to the Turah, verse 9 says He takes away the first to establish the second.
In the shadow He has cancelled all priestly offerings, no temple and no presence. We have been Set-Apart through the offering of Yahusha Mashiak once and for all. The Jewish religion wants to start the animal sacrifices again trampling the blood of Yahusha insulting the Ruach of favour. Yahusha offered his body as one slaughter offering for sins for all time. For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are being set-apart.
And the Ruach ha 'Qodesh also witnesses to us, this is the covenant I shall make with them says Yahuah, giving my laws into their hearts, and in their minds I shall write them, their sins and their lawlessnesses I shall remember no more. Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer a slaughter offering for sin. We can have the boldness to enter the set-apart place by the blood of Yahusha.
This is a new and living way He instituted for us, through the veil (PORTAL) that is His flesh. He is our high priest let us draw near with a true heart of completeness of belief, having our hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience and our bodies washed in clean water. Keep the confession of our hope without yielding, For He who promised is trust worthy.
The shadow meaning of Yahusha's sacrifice is that He cancelled temple worship and is no longer present there, instead he comes to our hearts through the Ruach and opens the portal of his presence within the new temple our bodies. This is His reign in the hearts of His bride and she has His message of the new and living way, a renewed covenant.
