TO SUMMARISE:
The apostle Paul writes,
- The children of the flesh of Abraham are Ishamel / Hagar / Firstborn / Sinai / mocked his birthright
- And Esau / Rebekkah / Firstborn / Zion / despised his birthright City of Jerusalem "that now is" / Jerusalem "the heavenly"
What is the New Testament reality[1] of David's Tabernacle? (Page.2)
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The intent of this Page.2 is to explain why the 1st Cent. Church is followed the blueprint (PHASE.2) from Egypt to David's Tabernacle but failed to attain the fulfillment of Solomon's Temple. (Review: PHASE.2, Page.4, 5, 6, 7) This failure lead to a spiritual decline in the Church,[2] resulting in the "dark ages" which lasted approx,1000 years (500-1500 AD?) Then came the reformation (Martin Luther (1517 AD), and since that time the Spirit of God has
been restoring the "truths" lost to the spiritual decline of the Church. Whenparalleling[0]PHASES.2, 4, 8, 9, 11 it reveals that the Church (the Body of Christ) is in atimeof restorationpictured by the BLUEPRINT of the Tabernacle of David. (Rom.15:4) ThisBLUEPRINTreveals that there is STILL MORE ahead[0]for the Church (theBody of Christ) which is the reality / the spiritual[0] fulfillmentofSolomon's Temple, the end of Israel's journey that began with the keeping of the Feast of the Passover Lamb (REVIEW: PHASE.2, Page.2 / PHASE.8)
Jesus (the son of DavidMatt.1:1-17)[0] confirms this when He said He would build His Church (Temple / House / Sanctuary) "WITHOUT HANDS."[0] (Mark.14:57-58, John.16:10-15, Acts.7:47-48; 17:24, Gal.1:11-12, Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12, 1Peter.5:2) (See chart below) PHASE.2
I. The apostle[0]James "infallibly"[1]interprets the Tabernacle of David(Amos.9:11-121, Acts.15:1-18)
A. God at the first did visit[0]the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.[0]
(Hosea.1:10; 2:23, Rom.9:24-26, Acts.15:17)
1. This visitation took place when God sent the apostle[0] Peter to the (Gentile)
House of Cornelius. (Acts.10:1-44;15:14)
2. The Church at Jerusalem were told this would happen. (Acts.1:1-8)
a. They were told that they were to be a witness in Jerusalem(John.16:10-15,
Luke.24:49, Acts.1:1-26; 2:1-47; 3:1-26; 4:1-37; 5:1-42;6:1-15; 7:1-60; 8:1-40;
Acts.9:1-43)
c. They were told they were to be a witness inJudaea / the territory of the
tribe (House) of Judah[0]
d. They were told they were to be a witness inSamaria/ the capital of the
northern Hebrew kingdom (House) of Israel). (Acts.8:1-40)[0]
e. They were told they were to be a witness in the uttermost part of the earth.
"all that are afar off" (Acts.1:8) NOTE: Acts.15:1-17, Eph.2:1-22, v.13 (Gentiles)
NOTE: This can be seen happening as you read Acts.1-15. This was not an
after thought or a "parenthesis" (after thought) This was ON TIME according to God's Purpose
that was "hid"in God from the beginning of the world (Acts.15:13-18, Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12)
4. This visitationwas to make of the twain (two, the Jew and Gentile) ONE NEW MAN.(Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12,
Gal.6:15-16, Rom.2:28-29; 9:1-33)[See chart below]
5. NOTE: How there are two lines going towards the Cross, THE CENTERPIECE (focal point) of God's
Purpose.
(REVIEW: HOME page for details)
a. Oneline for the Jews[0] who were to be stewards[0](Rom.9:1-5) of God's purpose
(John.1:11, Dan.9:26-27, Matt.21:33-46; 22:1-) NOTE: Rom.10:18-21. Paul says they were
given the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and
the service of God, and the promises. Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concern-
-ing the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen." (Rom.9:4)
This was to "bring them to Christ" who fulfilled / completed Law
b. And oneline for the Gentile (strangers) Nations (i.e. every Nation that is not the (natural / earthly)
children of the flesh of Abraham, Paul's kinsmen after the flesh (Rom.9:1-8) Even though
they were OUTSIDE the covenants of promise God made provision for them to "keep the
Passover to the Lord...he (stranger / Gentile) shall be as one that is born in the Land"
Foreshadowing the Gospel of "whosoever will" (NOTE: Eph.2:11-19)
5. The Gentiles "were not a people"(i.e. the people of God / Hosea.1:10; 2:23, Rom.9:24-26)
Acts.15:13-18)This is because they were outside of theCovenants(Eph.2:11-19)(See chart
above)
NOTE: Readthe prophetHosea with the "infallible" interpretation (2Tim.3:16-14, Gal.1:11-12)
of the apostle Paul (Hosea.1:10; 2:23, Rom.9:24-26)
a. Hosea prophesied, "it shall come to pass, thatin the place where it was said unto them,
(the Gentiles) Ye (you) are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye (you) are
the sons of the living God" (Hosea.1:10; 2:23, Rom.10:19-20, Matt.22:33-43, 1Peter.1:10-12;
2:9-10)
b. The apostle Paul (who was "taught...by the revelation of Jesus Christ.Gal.1:11-120
confirms what "Osee, (Hosea Grk.) said..."I will call them (the Gentiles) my people,
which were not mypeople" outside the covenants [See chart above] (Rom.9:24-26,
10:19-20; Gal.1:11-12, Eph.2:1-22)
c. The apostle Peter (confirms this) and writes, "the Spirit of Christ which was in the Prophet
Hosea was signify, when it (the Spirit of Christ) testified beforehand the SUFFERINGS OF CHRIST
(which has been fulfilled Acts.3:18) AND THE GLORY THAT SHOULD FOLLOW. (1Peter.1:10-12,
Acts.3:18-24, Rev.10:7; 11:15)
(1) Thesufferings of Christ / Feast of Passover(Exod.12:1-22, 1Cor.5:7-8, 1Peter.1:18-20)
(a) Thereconciliation of BOTH Jew and Gentile by the Cross. (Dan.9:24-26,Eph.2:1-22)
(b) NOTE: Passover was "the beginning of months" (Exod.12:1-2, Luke.1:3, Acts.1:1-3
(c) JESUS said there is more to follow (John.16:10-15)
(2) TheGlory that should follow is the Feast of Pentecost and the Feast of Tabernacles
(John.16:10-15, 1Cor.1:1-14, v.9-10, Eph.2:11-22; 3:1-12)
(a) On the day of Pentecost there was a Glory that followed (2Cor.3:1-18)
(b) There is still (future) Glorious (Glory filled) Church(pictured bySolomon's
Temple) to follow before the Second Coming.[0] (Eph.5:21-32)
NOTE: PHASE.11 / PHASE.10
d. The apostlePaul continues,[0](Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12)
(1) For this cause. What cause? The "cause" that the Jew and Gentile are to be made ONE
NEW MAN in Christ (i.e.The Tabernacle of David) with the purpose of being "fitly framed together"
(Eph.4:11-16)growing unto a Holy Temple (Solomon's Temple) in the Lord." (Eph.2:1-22,1Peter.2:5)
(2) This is the Temple (House / Sanctuary) that JESUS saidHe would build "WITHOUT HANDS"
(Mark.14:58, John.2:18-20)
A REVIEW OF OUR TEXT AGAIN(Acts.15:16-17)
(3) The first Cent.AD Church understood(i.e. those that hath an ear to hear)that they were
witnessing the fulfillment of the Tabernacle of David (the Jew and the Gentile reconcilied in
Christ) that the prophets prophecied about (Amos.9:11-12 / Acts.2:38; 3:18-24; 6:15; 7:1-60; 8:1;
9:1-43; 10:1-48; 11:1-26; 12-14; 15:1-41)
(a) The Holy Spirit was leading the Church into "all truth" about David's Tabernacle
(John.16:10-15, 1Cor.1:19-29; 2:1-14, Rom.15:4, 2Tim.3:16-17)
(b) Not everyone in the early Church had "an ear to hear." Since the day of Pentecost there
were those (of the Nation of Israel / the children of the flesh of Abraham Rom.9:7-8)
Acts.6:1-15; 7:1-60) that were "stiff necked" (Read Acts.2:1 to Acts.28:1-27) However there
was "a great the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great
company of the priests[0] were obedient to the faith. (Acts.6:7) NOTE: 2Cor.3:13-16)
(c) Look at these examples of Peter and Paul's kinsmen being stiff-necked
when they (had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he
expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of
the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening. And some believed
the things which were spoken, and some believed not. And when they agreed not among
themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost
by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers, Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye
shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive: For the heart
of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they
closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with
their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. Be it known therefore unto
you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it."
(4) The first Cent.AD Church also understood that they (the people) were being built a
"spiritual house" (Sanctuary / Temple) "made without hands" (John.2:18-20, Mark.14:58,
Acts.7:47-48; 17:24, Eph.2:20-22) / 1Peter.2:5) This is confirmed in the "type" (shadow / figure /
Blueprint / model) "upon whom the ends of the world are come." (Rom.15:4, 1Cor.10:1-11)
(a) In "the things...written aforetime" during the time of the Tabernacle of David) when God
gave David THE PATTERN for the Temple. (1Chron.28:1-19, Acts.13:13,36)
-- NOTE:There was a pattern given toNoah, then he built the Ark
(Gen.6:1-22, Heb.11:7, Matt.24:36-37) /
-- There was a pattern was first given to Moses, then he built the Tabernacle(Exod.25:8,
Heb.9:1-26; 10:1-25) was given a pattern to build by.
(b) The apostle Paul / Peter was the wise masterbuilder (architect / a person who designs (in
Paul's case, discovers the design of the building) and in many cases also supervises their
construction) could read the blueprint of the Old Testament types / figure 1Cor.3:10-15,
Eph.3:5) that given revelation foundation (JESUS CHRIST) 1Cor.3:10-15) "For other (spiritual)
foundation can no man than that is laid" (1Cor.3:11)
-- This (spiritual) foundation is for the (spiritual) House / Temple / Sanctuary that Jesus
said He would build, (Psa.127:1) WITHOUT HANDS! (John.2:,Mark.14:58
NOTE: The WARNING "Let every man take heed how he buildeth (builds) thereupon"
-- Paul was writing to the (saved) Church at Corinthian (1Cor.1:1-)
-- Everyone is building. Paul has laid the foundation
(c) During the time of David's Tabernacle the "place" for the foundation upon the foundation
of the apostle and prophets, which is Christ Jesus.
(d) Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone.[0] NOTE: Jesus is the foundation,
Cornerstone and the head. (Rom.9::32-33, Eph.2:20, 1Peter.2:1-9) That He may have
PREEMINENCE (Col.1:18)
(e) In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth (grows) unto an holy Temple in the
Lord:
(f) In whom ye (you Jews and Gentiles Eph.2:11-22) also are builded together
(g) For an habitation of God through the Spirit."(Eph.2:20-22)
(3) The apostle Paul continues,"How that by revelation He (Jesus the son of
David) made known unto me the mystery. (1 Cor.1:19-31; 2:1-14, Gal.1:11-12,
Eph.3:5, 2Peter.1:21) which in other ages (generations) was not made known
unto the sons of men(Matt.13:10-17, 1 Peter.1:10-12)
(4) As it is now revealed(John.16:10-15 / Acts.2.1-17, 1Cor.2:1-14 unto his holy
apostles (Paul) and prophets (Amos) Amos.9:11-12, Acts.15:1-17) by the Spirit."
(Eph.2:20-22)
(a) There is a Time and a Season for every thing under the sun (Ecc.3:1-00)
There are times seasons.(Lev.23:1-)
(b) NOTE: The Word became flesh in the times "for us" There is a plan / purpose
/ time table
-- The Feast days " in their season" / aslke rain in the time of...
-- The Tabernacle of David pin points the season for the early Church.
-- It's season is set between the feast of Pentcost and the Feast of Tabernacles
-- WE MUST remember that a day with the Lord is as a thousand of our years.
A (very rough) estimate (or guess) that an "half an hour" wound be around
20+ of our years.????? / our life is like the grass of the field (1Peter.1:24, Psa.90:10)
(e) Dispensationof the grace of God (John.
(f) Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men,
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places
might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God. According to the
eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: In whom we
have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him." (Eph.3:1-12)
(h) Thatafter the Cross they are not all Israel which are of Israel. (Rom.9:6-8) In other
words just because you were naturally born (of the flesh of Abraham Rom.9:1-8) you are
a Israelite / Jew / House of Judah (Rom.9:1-6)[0]
(i) After the Cross / Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they
all children(Rom.9:7, Gal.3:1-29; 4:21-31)[0]
(j) But, In Isaac[0] shall "thy seed" be called (Rom.9:8, Gal.4:21-28)[0]
(k) That is, They which are the children of the flesh,[0] these are not the
children of God (Rom.9:8)
(l) But the children of the promise (i.e. Isaac)[0] are counted for the seed
(Rom.9:9-16, Gal.4:21-28)[0]
b. James (and Paul) said "God at the first did visit the Gentiles"(Acts.15:14)"grafting"
them into the"good [cultivated[0] olive tree"[0](Matt.21:46; 22:14, Luke.14:15-24,
Rom.9:1-5; 11:20-25)
(1) The apostle[0] (Paul) says "remember, that ye (you Gentiles) being in time
past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called, uncircumcision by that which is
called the Circumcision (the Jews[0] in the flesh made by hands."
(NOTE: Acts.9:15; Eph.2:11-19. Gal.2:7)
(2) At that time (before the Cross) you [Gentiles] were "not a people" in
Christ)[0] not "Born again" (Eph.2:11-19)
(3) Being Aliens ("not a people") from the commonwealth of Israel[0] (Eph.2:11-19)
(4) No more Strangers (after the Cross) from the covenants of promise [0]
(5) Having no hope (before the Cross) [0](Eph.2:11-19)
(6) Without God in the world (before the cross) [0] (Eph.2:11-19)
(7) But now in Christ Jesus (after the Cross) you (Gentiles / Nation's) have
been grafted into the "good Olive Tree"[0] (Rom.9:1-5, Eph.2:11-19)
(a) Now you are the people of God / saints (which is Jew and Gentile
together as ONE MAN (Gal.3:1-29, NOTE:v.29, Eph.2:1-22
(b) Now you are in the commonwealth of "the Israel of God" (Gal.6:15-16)
(c) Now you are no more "strangers" from the covenants of promise.
(d) Now you have hope (Eph.2:12)
(e) Now you are with God in this world (Eph.2:12)
(8) You (Gentiles) who sometimes were far off (Acts.2:38-39) are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
For he is our peace, who hath made both (Jew and Gentile) one, for to make in himself of twain
(or two / Jew and Gentile) one new man, so making peace (Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12)
(9) Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, (Jew
and Gentile ONE NEW MAN) and of the household of God. (See chart above) NOTE: This is as
far as the 1st Cent. attained to. [NOTE: Chart below]
3. This ONE NEW MAN (the Jew and the Gentile in Christ) was foreshadowed[0] in the Law
(the"schoolmaster" Gal.3:24)to bring us to Christ[0] / The Lamb of God (1Peter.1:18-20) / Our
Passover(1Cor.5:7-8)(PHASE.2,Page.3 / PHASE.8) who was "manifested in these "last times"[0]
a. Theapostle[0] (Paul Acts.2:42 / Gal.1:11-12)interpreted the Feast ofPassover to be a
"type" (shadow, a figure, a model,[0]a schoolmaster) to bring us to Christ (The Lamb of
God) (1Cor.5:7-8, Lev,23:1-44, Deut.16:16-17, Gal.3:24, Matt.5:17-19, Heb.10:1-4 / Rom.8:1-4)
b. In this "type"[0] of Passover there was provision made for the "the stranger" (The Gentile, those
outside of the covenants of promiseEph.2:11-19) If they (the stranger) would be circumcised and
keep the Passover to the Lord...he shall be as one that is born in the land."[0]
(Exod.12:48-51 / John.3:6, Rom.2:28-29, Gal.6:15-16)
(1) The apostle(Paul) says, we (the Gentiles) are no more "strangers." because
(after the Cross) the Jew, Greek, bond, free, male nor female, circumcision nor
uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythiahave been"grafted in" to the "good Olive
tree"[0] (in Christ) and are fellow citizens / Saints(Rom. 9:1-33; 10:1-21; 11:1-25,
Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-121, 2Cor.5:17-21, Gal.3:28)
(2) A WHOSOEVER GOSPEL (Good news)[0] with NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS[0]
(Acts.10:34) The apostle Peter said (in his testimony Acts.10:1-44; 15:8-9) "God,
which knoweth the hearts, bare (testified to) them (the Gentiles) witness, giving
them (the Gentiles) the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; (Acts.2:1-17)And
put no difference between us (the Jews) and them, (the Gentiles) purifying
their hearts by faith...But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ we (the Jews Rom.10:1) shall be saved, even as they. Gentiles.
(Rom.10:12-13
c. WHEN COMPARING the "figure"[0] of the first Adam (Gen.1:26-31; 2:4-8, Rom.5:14) to Christ "the last
Adam" we find a greater insight into the purpose of the Marriage / Bride (1Cor.15:45-46)
(1) God created the first man (2Tim.2:3)Adam(Gen.1:1 [v.26 / to be a "figure"[0]
Rom.5:10-21, v.14] of JESUS, the "last Adam."(John.1:1-18, 1Cor.15:45-46)
(2) The "first Adam"gave himself for Eve (Gen.2:21)JESUS ("The Last Adam")gave Himself
for His Church / Eve (1Cor.15:45-46, 2Cor.11:1-3, Eph.5:21-32) which is the Jewand Gentile
(i.e. Greek, bond, free, male nor female, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian,
Scythia Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12) WHOSOEVER / The Nations / mankind. See HOME PAGE
(3) THE PURPOSE was to take one of his (the first Adam's) ribs and make a woman (Eve)
to be his Bride (Gen.2:18-25)
(a) The "rib" was taken as a "figure"[0]of a people being taking out of the Body of Christ
(the Last Adam / to be His Bride.(Gen.2:18-23, Rom.5:14, 2Cor.11:1-3)
(b) NOTE: That Eve(Gen.2:18-25) was not presented[0] to Adam until[0] she was "made"
(formed, completed / finished / perfected Eph.2:1-22; 4:11-16; 5:21-32, 2Tim.3:16-17, Heb.6:1-3)
(c) THE PURPOSE of being "presented" (completed / finished / perfected) for the "first Adam"
was to be married. (Gen.2:22-25) The Church (Eve) will be "presented" (completed / finished /
perfected)marriedto JESUS (the last Adam 1Cor.15:45-46,Eph.5:21-32)
(4) Why is there a weddingfor the ("figure") Last Adam / JESUS / Church / Eve?
(a) God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.We are a new creation (creature)
to be conformed His image.(2Cor.5:17, Rom.8:28-29, 1Cor.15:49, 2Cor.3:18, Col.3:10
(b) Andlet them (the first Adam and Eve / the "figure" (after they are married) have dominion.
Be fruitful, and multiply,and replenish the earth, and subdue it:
(c) And God saw every thing that he had made, (in six days) and, behold it was very good. And
the evening and the morning were the sixth day.(Gen.1:26-31)
"This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ (the last
Adam) and the church.("Eve)"
(Eph.5:32, 1Cor.2:1-14, Rev.10:7; 11:15, Acts.3:18-24, Rom.3:21-30; 8:1-4,16:25-26)
4. Did not Israel (Paul's kinsmen in the flesh) know that this visitation was coming?
a. The apostle (Paul) writes, (Gal.1:11-12, 2Tim.3:16-17)
(1) First "Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people,
and by a foolish nation I will anger you."(Rom.10:19, Deut.32:21)
(a) Them that are no people are the Gentiles / Nations / the Greek, bond, free,
male nor female, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythia
Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12) WHOSOEVER / The Nations / mankind) Hosea.10:2;23
(b) A foolish nation -Jesus (the son of David) said, "Therefore say I unto you,
(Matt.21:33-42) The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to
a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
--This Nationis the Church(1Peter.2:5)that includes Jew, Gentiles / bond,
free, male nor female, circumcision nor uncircumcision, (Rom.2:28-29,
Gal.6:15-16) Barbarian, Scythia Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12) WHOSOEVER / The
Nations / mankind) Rom.10:19, Hosea,2:10
-- A Nation(1Cor.19-29; 2:1-14, 1Peter.2:5-9, Eph.2:11-19)
-- A Foolish Nation The preaching of the Cross is foolishness to those
who are walking in the flesh
(2) But Esaias (Isaiah) is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me
not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.(Rom.10:20,
Isa.65:1-10)
(3) But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a
disobedient and gainsaying people. (Matt:13:10-17, Acts.6:8-15; 7:1-60,)
b. But God who is rich in mercy will graft them in again 'IF....."
NOTE: In the type[0] of the feast of Passover, there was a second chance to keep
the Passover. (Num.9:9-14, Col.2:16, 1Cor.5:7-8) This points to "the branches" (the
children the flesh Abraham)
(1) If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead
body. (Exod.12:1-15, Num.9:9-14) Paul's kinsmen after the flesh were made
unclean when they "killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the
dead" (Acts.3:15)
(2) If any man...be in a journey afar off,[0] yet he shall keep the Passover unto the
Lord in the fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and
eat it. (Num.9:9-14, John.5:46, Acts.3:22) Paul's kinsmen after the flesh (The Jew
/ Israel) have been on a long jorney since they were "broken off from the good
olive tree." (Rom.11:0-00)
Daniel said that this was an "overspreading of abominations." (Dan.9:27, Matt.24:
1-3, 15-22) until the consummation (end)
(3) If Israel (the children of the flesh of AbrahamRom.9:1-8) refuse this second chance to
keep Passover they "shall bear their sin" Num.9:9-14(NOTE: Rom.9:1-3; 10:1) /
There is no other sacrifice for sin (Heb.10:1-26)
NOTE: EVERYONE (Jew or Gentile) MUST KEEP THE (the reality / the fulfillment of)
FEAST OF PASSOVER in Christ. (1Cor.5:7-8, Matt.5:17-19, John.3:16)
(4) NOTE: This second chance is explained REVIEW: PHASE.5, Page.7[Click here for explanation]
5. Hath God cast away his people?"
(1) His people are identified as "the branches"[0]that were broken off from the "good olive tree"
Rom.11:1-25)
(a) The "root"[0] is God's Covenant confirmed in Jesus (Matt.5:17-19, Gal.3:16-17) See chart above

(b) Paul asks the question...
-- Have they (his kinsmen according to the flesh (Rom.9:1-5)not heard?
Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the
ends of the world.
-- Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, (Deut.32:21, Hosea.1:10, 2:23 / Rom.9:25-26) I will
provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
(Deut.32:21, Matt.21:42-44 / 1Peter.2:5-9) But Esaias / Isaiah(Isa.65:1-70) is very bold, and
saith, I was found of them (i.e. the Gentiles, Acts.15:1-17, Eph.2:11-22) that sought me not;I
(God) was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. (Rom.10:18-21)
-- But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient
gainsaying people." (Rom.10:18-21) NOTE: Stephens sermon(Acts.6:8-15; 7:1-53)
(c) Paul writes to the Ephesian Church "God made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote
afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery
of Christ)...That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, (The Tabernacle of David) and of the same
body, (ONE NEW MAN Eph.2:11-19) and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel..."
(Acts.9:1-20, NOTE: Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12)

world(Eph.1-4; 2:1-22; 3:1-12, 1Peter,1:18-20)
(3) Paul's "kinsmen according to the flesh" (Rom.9:1-33)did not receive Christ,
(a) But rejected Him as the Messiah,braking themselves off from the"good olive tree"
which is the "(i.e. the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of
God, the promises, Whose (to them belong) are the fathers, And of whom as concerning the
flesh (Matt.1:1-17, Rom.5:10-21, Phil.2:5-8) Christ came. (Lev.26:14-33, Dan.9:26 / Rom.10:18-21,

their own righteousness (Isa.64:6, Acts.3:Rom.10:3)
(c) Theybroke themselves off (as a Nation)[0] from the "good olive tree"
(Lev.26:14-44) It was not God that broke Covenant. He does not brake
Covenant. (Heb.6:13-20)
(d) The evidence is seen later in (Rom.11:1-25) God promised to "graff"
(Rom.11:23)i.e. to prick in, i.e. ingraft)[0] them (Pau's kinsmen in again
(because of Covenant)
"IF"[0]they abide not still in unbelief" (Rom.11:23)
Unbelief in what? Unbelief that JESUS is the MESSIAH, that He
was "THE WORD made flesh / God manifest in the flesh. (John.1:1-18,
1Tim.3:16)Unbelief in that "from the beginning / foundation of the
world" God's plan|purpose was that the Jew and the Gentile would
be reconciled in Christ by the Cross, to be ONE NEW MAN to be the
Israel of God. (Rom.2:28-29; 9:1-8; 10:1-3, Gal.2:20; 3:1-29; 4:21-31,
6:15-16, Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12) [See chart below]
(REVIEW: PHASE.5, Page.7 for more details)
(d) Paul's (who was taught directly by Jesus Gal.1:11-12) writes the "Israelites" have not submitted
themselves unto the righteousnessof God." For they being ignorant of God's righteousness,
have gone about to establish their own righteousness. (Rom.10:1-3)
-- The "righteousness of God" is given to us by becoming a "new creature" (creation / Nation)
Born again) in Christ Jesus. (2Cor.5:17-21, Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12; 4:24)
-- If you reject the blood of the Covenant, there is NO other sacrifice for sin. (Heb.6:26-39)
you brake your / The atonement is in the blood / the sinless blood of Christ / there
is NOBODY on the planet that can redeen you, because sin has passed on to ALL
MANKIND
(e) They were "ignorant[0] of God's righteousness"
-- (i.e. not to know (through lack of information or intelligence); by implication,to ignore
through disinclination.[0] [disinclination is to have a unwillingness, aversion, dislike,
distaste; objection, demur, resistance, opposition] because of their traditions and the
the commandments of men
Their "grafting back in again will require submiiting to God's righteousness! (Therefore there is not a great
harvest of Jews being grafted in, ONLY those that submitt to God's righteousness)
NOTE:
This word "ignorant" is the same Greek word used by Paul to the Corinthian Church.
He said, "I would not that ye (you) should be ignorant,[0]how that all our fathers
were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; And were all baptized unto
Moses in the cloud and in the sea; And did all eat the same spiritual meat;And the
same spiritual drinkfor they drank of the same spiritual Rock...and the Rock was
Christ [See PHASE.2, Page.3]
These types teach us about instruction in righteousness of God (2Tim.3:16-17)
NOTICE: How Paul is interpreting the natural to the Spiritual (1Cor.10:1-11; 15:45-46)
)
-- Jesus said, "That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things
which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not
heard them (Matt.13:10-17, NOTE: Eph.3:5)
-- Jesus said, "blessed are your eyes, (the disciples eyes) for they see: and your ears, for they
hear.
in them (the "Israelites" that did not submitted themselves unto the
righteousness of God." (Rom.10:1-3) is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith,
By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not
perceive. For this people's
heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed;
lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should
understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
(Gen.3:1-24 /v.15. Lev.26:14-44, Acts.3:11-17; 6:8-15; 7:1-60, Rom.10:3, 12; 1:14)
(e) God did NOT cast the apostle Paul away.
-- Because Paul was saved (Redeemed / Justified) in the blood of Christ. (NOTE: Eph.2:1-22;
3:1-12, 1Peter.1:10-12) "he straightway (immediately preached Christ in the synagoues, that

(2) This pattern as seen in (Saul's) Paul's life is the same pattern is seenin (the apostle[0])
Peter's answer to the devout men (Jews, Paul's kinsmen according to the flesh) who said
after his preaching on the day of Pentecost. (Acts.2:1-24)They asked "whatshall we do?
(a) Peter said, "Repent, ("everyone of you") [REVIEW: This page.2]
-- Repent from dead works and faith towards God (Heb.6:1-3)
-- Be reconciled together with the Gentile in Christ (Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12, 1Peter.1:18-20)
(b) And be baptizedevery one of you(i.e the Jews, Paul's kinsmen according to the
flesh) in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the
gift of the Holy Ghost.
(c) For the promise is unto you, (Jews, Paul's kinsmen according to the flesh) and to
your children, and to all that are afar off, (the Gentiles / the residue) even as many as
the Lord our God shall call." (Acts.2:1-38)[REVIEW: This page.2]
(d) These "devout (God-fearing) men" were
-- Paul's kinsmen according to the fleshRom.9:1-5) out of every Nation under heaven (Acts.2:4)
-- NOTE: Paul had "continual sorrow" for(Rom.9:1-8; 10:1-3) because they missed their "day of
visitation." (Luke.19:41-48)
(e) Why did they come to Jerusalem?
-- They came out of obedience to the giving of Law of Moses and to keep the Feast of Pentecost
(Exod.-Lev., Deut.12:1-12; 16:16; 23:1-44)
-- NOTE: This continued for 1500 (approximate) years. During these years (and generations)
Paul's " kinsmen after the flesh" (Rom.9:1-8)added and diminished[10](Deut.12;32, Prov.30:5)
from the Law of the Feast of Pentecost and it had became a dead form. (Matt.15:1-9)
-- (Pentecost) and in the
feast of tabernacles:
-- These "devout Jews were already (dwelling) in Jerusalen and witnessed the fulfillment of
the Feast of Passover, This was the pattern for the previous 1500 years
(pouring Spirit out on all flesh / Passover first / blood, then the anointing of the Spirit of God Exod,3-: oil not to touch the flesh]
(c)
These "things" were foreshadowed in the Law of Moses (Acts.3:18-24, Gal.3:24) which the Prophets used to speak to us. (1Peter.1:10-12, Matt.5:17-19)
This is why Paul says, I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. (Rom.9:1-2) "my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved..."For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God,
but not according to knowledge.For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
NOTE: The diffedrence between "Simon" and "devout men Jews)" who were "amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine." (Acts.2:12-13) There was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him." (Luke.2:25/ Dan.9:26, Rom.10:18-21, John.1:29-44; 4:23-24) "How did Simeon know and these devout Jews did not know?"

c. Look at Romans.9:1-3; 10:1-3
(1) Paul's sorrow for the Jews (kinsmen Phil.3:1-8) according to the flesh Rom.9:5-9) that they
might be saved (Rom.10:1-3, (i.e. Born Again) NOTE: JESUS "wept" over the City of Jerusalem
because they missed their day of vistation (Luke.19:1-48)
(2) Paul's sorrow for the Jews was because they could not hear or see that JESUS is the Messiah
(Isa.,Matt.13:10-17)
(3) Paul's sorrow for the Jews was because they had let their traditions and commandments of men
make the Word of God of none effect. They had made their own Messiah
(4) Paul's sorrow for the Jews was because they had gone about to establishing their own
righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God." (Rom.10:1-3
2Cor.5:1-21)
(5) Paul's sorrow was because they had the "advantage"[0](Rom.10:1-3) "much every way: chiefly,
because...unto them were committed the"oracles" of God first(i.e. The Law of Moses Acts.7:38 /
Exod. Lev, Deut.31:9-11) These "Oracles" are defined "oracles" as the adoption, the glory, the
covenants, thegiving of the law, the serviceof God, the promises, Whose are the fathers, And of
whom as concerning the flesh Christ came,[0] (Rom.9:5 / Gen.3:15-16, Matt.1:1-18, Luke.3:23-38,

faithful servants (stewards) of that Law (the Oracles.") NOTE:
Matt.13:10-17; 25:14-30 Rom.2:17-29, Luke.12:48, 1Cor.4:2
(a) NOTE: These laws (Oracles) were God's Laws that they were
to be good stewards of. (Lev.26:14 "These are my Laws" / NOTE: The example of the "Feast
of Passover." God says, These are "my feasts" (Lev.23:1-4) NOTE: Later these feast
were called "the feast of the Jews" (John.5:1; 6:4)
(b) They failed to be good stewards[0] and began to "added" to the Law and diminishing[0] from
God's with their traditions and commandments of men. (Matt.15:1-9)
(4) NOTE:They broke their covenant with God (Lev.26:14-33)God says, "if ye will not hearken
unto me, and will not do all these commandments; And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if
your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break
my covenant: I also will do this unto you..." (Lev.26:14-00)More details
(5) Jesus said, "And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, (Isaiah.6:9; 29:13) which

their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with
their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should

say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things
which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have
not heard them." (Matt.13:10-17, 1Peter.1:10-12)
(6) They ("Paul's "kinsmen according to the flesh") of Abraham (Rom.9:1-8) rejected the

adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God
and the promises; Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came,

(a) Adam and Eve went about making "fig leaf" aprons because they knew
something needed to be done to cover their nakedness. (Gen.3:1-24) but God
had NO respect for their fig leaf aprons. (Gen.3:8-24, Heb.4:8-13)
(b) Cain went about offering the fruit of the ground (Gen.4:1-4) A bloodless

For "this is the word of promise" (Rom.9:9) Theapostle (Paul) goes back to

14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.
27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
And Isaac intreated the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the Lord.
23 And the Lord said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.
It was said, the elder shall serve the younger before/ was given birthright
(b) NOTE: "For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that
the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that
calleth;) [Read Rom.9:12-33]
(c) This was the purpose of God (Rom.9:10-16)

This is the apostles[0]doctrine which the early Church continued in. This is what they preached and taught

nor uncircumcision, Barbarian,
Scythia, from the highways and the byways (Matt.22:1-14, Luke.14:15-24) together in Christ (the last Adam) to be His Bride / Eve.[0] (2Cor.11:1-3, Eph.5:21-32)(Review: HOME PAGE)

Because Paul was an apostle,
this is "the apostles doctrine"
Compare this with
David desiring
to build a House for
God and prepared the building materials for Solomon (his son) to build for the Name of the Lord. David said, "The Lord made me to understand in writing by His hand upon me,,,all the works of this pattern
(1Chron.28:11-19)
Remember:
The pattern reveals that David's
Tabernacle preceded Solomon's
Temple
This is "the abomination" which made "desolate" that the prophet Daniel prophecied about

11This is crucial to understand, because after the Cross God still has a people in Christ (which consists of the Jew, Greek, bond, free, male nor female, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian ye (you) are all one Christ Jesus. (2Cor.5:17-21, Gal.3:28)

FIRST THE NATURAL / FLESH........THEN THE SPIRITUAL
The apostle was not "cast away" because he accepted his "day of visitation"[0]and his "kinsmen" did not. (Gen.1:1, John.1:1-14, Luke.19:41-48, 1Peter.1:18-20)
NOTE:
We must remember that the apostle Paul wrote by the inspiration of God (John.16:10-15) "the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ." (Gal.1:11-12)
This makes this interpretation "infallible"

NOTE: The apostle (Paul) wrote. "let us keep the Feast" of Passover in it's reality (1Cor.5:7-8, Col.2:16, Matt.5:17-19) This would also include the reality of
Numbers.9:9-14
Paul's "kinsmen according to the flesh"went "about
to establish their own righteousness"(Rom.10:1-3)[0]
_______________
Isaiah says "we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy[0] rags" (Isa.64:6, Rom.3:20-23, 5:12)
(Eph.2:1-22)
Compare: David bringing the Ark back and place the Ark in a NEW place Mt.Zion) Page.1 / FEAST OF PENTECOST A NEW MEAT OFFERING
This is NOT replacement theology as some would say. THE PURPOSE WAS to place ALL MEN in Christ to be crucified with Christ, buried with Christ and walk in ressurection power in Christ
NOTE: The Words "God at
first did visit the Gentiles...to this agree the words of the prophets"
NOTE: It is the apostle (Paul) interpreting the prophet (Moses / Isaiah) laying the foundation (direction) for the early Church
(Eph.1:1; Eph.2:20-22, Acts.3:22)

NOTE:
This is not"replacement theology" (as some say) Paul is saying after the Cross both Jew and Gentile are to be a NEW CREATION IN CHRIST (Gal.6:15-16)
The Jew is NOT being replaced by the Church.
After the Crossthe Jew andthe Gentile are to be crucified with Christ, (losing their fleshly identity / genealogy) and become "saints" / "fellowcitizens" becoming.
"ONE NEW MAN"
In the Last Adam (The Lord Jesus Christ) [SeeCOVER]
Just as in the "figure" of the first Adam, God is taken a "rib"[0] from the Body of Christ to make a woman (Bride) to be presented to the last Adam.
NOTE: This "presentation" did not take place UNTIL EVE WAS FINISHED / COMPLETED / PERFECTED
and and from His side (a rib) was taken to be form a Bride that bring be presented to Christ
(2Chron,.5:1-14)
WARNING: Gentiles "Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee."
