PHASE 4
A review of our text for this series
"For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that may present
you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve (Gen.3:1-7) through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ" (2Cor.11:1-4). This warning is still in effect todayas it was in the 1st. Century because the Marriage of Christ and His Church has not happen yet. We are only "espoused." This means any friendship with the wisdom of this world(1John.2:16) is spiritual adultery (James.4:4), which (according to the Levitical pattern of Marriage Deut.24:1, Lev.21:10-15, Matt.5:17-19, Heb.3:1) will disqualify us from being His Bride. It is only God's (unadulterated) inspired patterns and Laws that will present us as a chaste virgin to Christ (2Tim.3:16).
Thelanguageof the Tabernacle ofMoses is crucial instruction (2Tim.3:16-17, Matt.5:17-19) in our preparation as the Bride of Christ (Rev.19:7-8, Heb.9:1-10, Gal.3:24). It teaches the pattern / blueprint that God requires to dwell amongst us (Exod.25:8, 1Cor.10:1-11) in our everyday life, while we are espoused, being made ready (Rev.19:7-8)for the marriage. Therefore, it is no coincidence that the pattern of the Tabernacle floor parallels the journey of the church in the wilderness, (PHASE 2) because both patterns reveal how God will present usas a chaste virgin to Christ.
Phase 4 (The Tabernacle of Moses)
When this phase (PHASE 4) is laid beside (PHASE 2) it confirms that the Spirit of God is leading (John.16:12-13) the Church (Bride) according to the same pattern revealed in Israel's journey from Egypt to the promised land. (Note:PHASE 2) This is the second witness (Deut.19:15,Matt.18:16, 2 Cor.13:1). When Moses was about to make the Tabernacle, God reminded him many times to "make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee on the mount" (Heb.8:5, Exod.25:9,40). The reason for this is because it is a pattern of "heaven itself"(Heb.8:5; 9:24). The Tabernacle pattern is given by "inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine,for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished" and prepared as the Bride of Christ (2 Tim.3:16-17, Eph.4:11-16)
