1
00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:03,839
Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too

2
00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:07,759
much because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy

3
00:00:07,799 --> 00:00:11,560
for today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,080
yesterday's portion of heavenly manna, the word of God to

5
00:00:15,199 --> 00:00:19,000
keep us through today's challenges. On this program, we are

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,879
going to change all of that. Let's experience God's words

7
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,920
today and receive the power we need to live healthy,

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,839
vibrant lives. Welcome to your Daily Portion with your host,

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,079
author speaker Elle David Harris.

10
00:00:34,439 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning, good marninging. It is Monday, December one,

11
00:00:37,719 --> 00:00:41,560
twenty twenty five. Hello, my name is El David Harris.

12
00:00:41,679 --> 00:00:44,240
I am your host, and this is your Daily Portion

13
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,719
where we give you God's word every single day, and

14
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,880
today is no exception. We are continuing in our lesson

15
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,719
study series Lessons of Faith from Joshua, and our caption

16
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,920
for today is type and Anti Type. We talked about

17
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,479
that a little bit yesterday, but we're gonna make it

18
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,959
make more sense today. I want to illustrate it in

19
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,200
a way that hopefully it will it will not just

20
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,719
resonate with us intellectually, but somehow transform us by the

21
00:01:12,719 --> 00:01:15,200
renewing of our mind. Okay, so I'd just like to

22
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,439
say welcome to everyone joining us, especially those joining us

23

This is one of the ways that we continue to

29
00:01:39,599 --> 00:01:44,879
build faith and fellowship. Let's pray, Father, thank you, thank

30
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,879
you for not leaving us in the dark, thank you

31
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:54,000
for not letting us still be in the shadows. Thank

32
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,760
you for Jesus. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen and

33
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,760
Amen again. As I have said over the years to you,

34
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:06,120
as we've done this every single day, that the Lesson

35
00:02:06,359 --> 00:02:09,840
Study Guide, the Adult Study Guide, was not intended for

36
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,919
what I do here, and so I will always use

37
00:02:14,039 --> 00:02:18,719
a special spin on what the lesson writer has been teaching,

38
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,879
because how do you squeeze all of the lesson into

39
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,680
the few minutes we have? And so today I'm going

40
00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:28,639
to cherry pick one of the concepts here, one of

41
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,840
the concepts of at least one of the concepts, and

42
00:02:34,199 --> 00:02:36,879
it is the sanctuary. Okay, so we're going to focus

43
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,039
our attention here, unless we have more time than I

44
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,240
think we do. We're going to focus on those three

45
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:49,479
phases that the lesson writer has prescribed. One is the crystological,

46
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:57,439
the second is the ecclesiastical, and finally eschatological. Christological basically

47
00:02:57,479 --> 00:03:04,520
means christ like. What it has to do with Jesus, ecclesiasts, ecclesiological.

48
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,879
I said it wrong the first time. What does it

49
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,319
have to do with the Church of God? And of

50
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,120
course eschatological has to do with the last days. Okay,

51
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,439
so let's go with our lesson number one, right out

52
00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:20,080
of John chapter one and verse fourteen. John chapter one

53
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,919
and verse fourteen, where the Bible reads and the word

54
00:03:23,759 --> 00:03:25,800
was made flesh? Who was the word? Go ahead and

55
00:03:25,879 --> 00:03:29,039
type in the chat who was the word? The word

56
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:34,599
was made flesh? That's Jesus. And what dwelt among us?

57
00:03:34,599 --> 00:03:38,240
I want you to focus on the phrase, and dwelt

58
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:42,919
among us? The Bible continues, and we beheld his glory,

59
00:03:43,639 --> 00:03:47,000
the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,

60
00:03:47,719 --> 00:03:51,520
full of grace and truth. So much to say here,

61
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,960
but let me just stay narrowly focused. And so the

62
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,919
term the Greek term for dwelt for dwelt is sknu

63
00:04:00,639 --> 00:04:04,360
or sku, that's the right pronunciation. It means to pitch

64
00:04:04,479 --> 00:04:08,599
a tent, to pitch a tent. I come from the

65
00:04:08,599 --> 00:04:10,759
hood like I don't. I've never pitched a tent in

66
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:16,480
my life. So, but I've seen people pitch tents to tabernacle. Okay,

67
00:04:16,519 --> 00:04:21,959
a verb to tabernacle. Okay. That's when Jesus became flesh.

68
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:28,439
He fulfilled the sanctuary symbol. God no longer dwelt in

69
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,839
a structure or a building the Old Testament. Remember, have

70
00:04:33,079 --> 00:04:35,519
them make me, I probably getting ahead of myself, have

71
00:04:35,639 --> 00:04:38,879
them make me a sanctuary that I may dwell among them.

72
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,759
And so now Jesus is here. And what God is

73
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,000
showing us is that he's pitching his tent with us

74
00:04:46,399 --> 00:04:51,160
in and among us through Christ, and not needing the

75
00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:55,759
physical structure that the people of God would take around

76
00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:00,360
in the wilderness. No longer needing Solomon's temple, no longer

77
00:05:00,399 --> 00:05:03,079
needing any of the other temples historically, some of which

78
00:05:03,079 --> 00:05:07,439
we've spoken about on this program. Right, God no longer

79
00:05:07,519 --> 00:05:10,759
dwelt in a building made with hands, but in the

80
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,959
person of his son. What does Emmanuel mean? The Bible

81
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,399
gave that name identification of Christ. At the same time

82
00:05:19,759 --> 00:05:24,839
it means God with us. His name will be Immanuel.

83
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,680
That being interpreted God with us the same thing where

84
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,600
it says the Word made flesh and dwelt among us.

85
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,199
So now we are seeing where God through Christ is

86
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:41,920
tabernacling with us. He's pitching his tent in humanity and

87
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,600
on planet Earth when Jesus lived on planet Earth for

88
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,399
thirty three and one half years. And now, well, I

89
00:05:48,439 --> 00:05:50,959
won't go too far. I'll just pause right there. And

90
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,439
so what I want you to do is to meditate

91
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,600
on this. I'm talking about actual meditation. Like God, what

92
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,759
do you mean by I'm really thankful for? How do

93
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,759
I apply right? Meditate on Christ's presence in your life.

94
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:10,879
Begin each day by inviting Him to tabernacle to dwell

95
00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:15,519
in your heart and guide your thoughts. I'm talking about

96
00:06:15,519 --> 00:06:18,720
when people are gossiping at work. I'm talking about when

97
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,639
somebody in your household is disruptive. I'm talking about in

98
00:06:22,759 --> 00:06:25,240
church when those committee meetings are not going in the

99
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,040
way that you hoped that they would go, and some

100
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,959
people seem to not have prayed like they should have,

101
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,000
which is why they're behaving that they are God when

102
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,560
you're in me? How do I live? How do I

103
00:06:36,639 --> 00:06:40,839
respond to what's happening. Let's move to lessen number two,

104
00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:43,800
and by the way, transform me. Please, God, will you

105
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,759
please transform me by the renewing of my mind? Well you,

106
00:06:46,879 --> 00:06:51,079
since Jesus is tabernacling with me in me, can you

107
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,600
please make me like him? Help me to assume the

108
00:06:54,680 --> 00:07:00,399
mindset of Christ. Lesson number two, the church becomes God's

109
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,439
dwelling place, the ecclesiological phase. This is coming in from

110
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:10,519
First Corinthians, Chapter three, verses sixteen and seventeen. The Bible reads, no,

111
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,519
he not that you are the temple of God and

112
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,240
the Spirit of God. Dwelleth in you if any man

113
00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:21,399
defile the temple of God? Oh wait a minute, Am

114
00:07:21,439 --> 00:07:23,720
I defiling the temple of God? I am the temple

115
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:26,360
of God? The things? Oh be careful little eyes what

116
00:07:26,439 --> 00:07:29,000
I see. Oh be careful little mouth what I say.

117
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,759
Oh be careful little ears what I hear. Oh be

118
00:07:31,879 --> 00:07:34,399
careful little feet where I go. There's a father up

119
00:07:34,399 --> 00:07:37,639
above looking down in tender love. Oh be careful all

120
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,839
of what we just said, because it matters, because we

121
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,480
are the temple of the Holy Ghost. Am I defiling

122
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:48,319
this temple, Bible says him, shall God destroy, For the

123
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,639
Temple of God is holy. Not talking about a building.

124
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,160
We're talking about you. You put your name here. I

125
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,720
am holy because God says so, because the Holy ghost

126
00:08:00,759 --> 00:08:04,680
is dwelling there, because Jesus is dwelling there, which temple

127
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:08,120
y are. Now. I won't go into all of the

128
00:08:08,199 --> 00:08:12,920
details of the Greek here, but basically nils means inner sanctuary.

129
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:18,759
Through the in dwelling holy ghosts, Believers collectively from Gods

130
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:26,279
collectively form God's living temple on earth, living temple on earth.

131
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:32,759
The holiness, once confined to the most holy place, also

132
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,679
fills the hearts of God's people. I wish I had

133
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:41,559
the time treat your body and your community as sacred spaces.

134
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:45,480
Lesson number three. Let's get it really quickly. The eschatological

135
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:50,360
or last Day's implications. The Bible reads in Revelation chapter

136
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,200
twenty one and verse twenty two, as we come to

137
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,480
a swift close, and I saw no temple Therein this

138
00:08:56,519 --> 00:09:00,799
is a thousand years after, a thousand years after Jesus comes.

139
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,879
So we're in heaven for a thousand years. And then

140
00:09:02,919 --> 00:09:06,080
we are starting to really pay close attention to the city,

141
00:09:06,399 --> 00:09:08,759
the Holy City, and I saw no temple therein, for

142
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,679
the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple thereof.

143
00:09:14,639 --> 00:09:16,360
I wish I had the time to get into that

144
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,000
Greek and all of that. But let me just fast forward.

145
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,399
Live with heaven in view, Live with the earth made

146
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,039
new in view. Let the promise of God's eternal presence

147
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:32,399
motivate you and to prepare you for holy, holy dwelling.

148
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:36,120
Every single day and the last days. We are preparing

149
00:09:36,159 --> 00:09:39,879
not for all the crazy signs, but for finally, face

150
00:09:39,919 --> 00:09:43,320
to face communion with God throughout eternity. Make it a

151
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,360
great day, Peace.

152
00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:48,519
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. Friends. Always remember we cannot

153
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,600
live by bread alone, but by every word that comes

154
00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:54,720
from the mouth of God. This has been your daily

155
00:09:54,759 --> 00:10:00,279
portion with el David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
