The Four Woods in Leviticus 23.40 may turn out to be human's biggest test.
A rabbi told us ten year olds that the two big points of Feast of Tabernacles were
The booths were to be constructed of four wood categories representing four types of people.
Roof with holes is a by product of constructing roofs out of leafy boughs. The point being that although there is a roof infrastructure everybody , everybody has Divine connection to God .
Read Jeremiah 31 and Ezekiel 36 to ' get ' the changes of the new Covenant .
The work of the Holy Spirit is to convict us of sin, righteousness and judgment .
You can look up the dictionary meaning of those three words but you will only find outer court definitions ...surface definitions .
So God illuminates us with baptism of the Spirit , then in the form of co operating with the Spirit in the supernatural : the candlestick
And enlightening or returning us to single eye seeing by the Word at the Table of Shewbread.
Book and signs following.
In this middle entraining our eye area of the holy place
Sin
Righteousness
Judgment
All get unpacked further .
There's the mystery of sin .
There's the mystery of Christ in us .
There's the mystery of the ecclesia , the local and universal church .
There's the Mystery of the Man and the Maid which Paul takes to be the human picture representing Christ and the Church .
And it is a mystery in the Holy Spirit .
Even our own bodies are being revealed to us in these days through books like Martin Felt in the 90s discussing the homeostasis in our systems in 24 parallel functions . Lymph system , blood system , digestive system , neural system and 20 more .
This is more or less the sort of complexity in the Body of Christ .
Pretty much as soon as we are again returning to proper Holy Spirit led gatherings ,we are to observe what God is doing .
The Old Covenant wasn't wrong . It was like strong instructions to little children . The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom .
The New Covenant is yes turning round to God lile the Jews did , but Christ was able to take out the core problem of the Genesis 3 initiation into a Satanic hook up in our spirit man . The Lamb who takes away the sin of the world .
Our main identity is spirit .
Unlike the outer forms of holding things in check in the Old Covenant , Christ took out our main identity , our Adamic condition at spirit level , and killed it completely. He renews us in our spirit as a literal new born new creation out of heaven .
The Holy Spirit didn't leave us dead but raised us in Christ . Then He pours out this new anointing called baptism in the Spirit upon our new being we have received .
So now we enter a new and living way . Somehow we sense in our hearts what God is showing us to do.
All this to say ....as we begin doing proper church with proper thirdlevel elders .....God takes more and more through the three diverses in 1 Corinthians 12 , but then we hit the next learning in verses 14-26, how differently we all function .
This is coming to the four woods . The four Living Beings . The four gospel writers . While we can learn tractual instructions in secular books like Surrounded By Idiots ( Not ) thomas erikson , these other humans now have an inner Christ nature , and a new anointing as Melchizedek priests . We are in uncharted territory . Paul wrote three charts ....of 14 different ministry areas , but we continue to observe !!! George Mueller , George Verwer , Brother Andrew , took helps ministries onto another level . Bonnke converted 80 million people face to face, not counting internet and TV and DVDs. The Helsers are continuing on from Ed Miller , Jorge Pradas and Ian McCulloch taking praise and worship into uncharted regions . Women are coming forth like mighty oaks .
Why Four Woods is challenging is that apart from the very first church , and maybe the Caldey Island Brethren in Europe , or Mel Tari's teams in the Philippine revival .....for 6000 years we have taken the angels heirarchy shortcut and run everything like Egypt , in pyramid or one solo ruler.
Church was strictly told not to do this .
Call no man father . Call no man teacher .
Pastor is just an avoidance trick.
Change the word king to pastor and carry on the same .
Ecclesia has collective elders whose eyes are single , and bodies are full of Light .They are just a little more robustly trained in seeing what God is doing.
I only do what I see My Father doing says Jesus and He was training others to move that way .
This is the teaching of psalm 123 and John 3.
Even if we have caught glimpses of how the four woods function in secular work , because we haven't been operating in the Feast of Booths Holy Spirit version , or REAL ECCLESIA , pastors have blocked the Melchizedek freedom of moving together properly
We have done the same in marriage .
Man is head , but it's a function not a robotic system . Women rising up and becoming alternative pyramid rulers , and divorces happening everywhere , is missing the point entirely.....
We arent building pyramids , we are training in seeing what God is doing ....and in our kids lives .
