OLD TESTAMENT PICTURE The Tabernacle and its settlement of the Israelite Families OLD TESTAMENT PICTURE
Around the Tabernacle they lined up according to God’s commands
Adding up the companies of families, it lays out in the Cross
The Leading Tribe Banner would line up around the Tabernacle
The Banners around the Place God Dwells with His Chosen
The Old Testament Prophets A Vision of God’s Throne In Heaven, with faces exactly as the Tribal Banners of the Israel encampment.
EZEKIEL the Prophet Ezekiel 1:10 – The word of the Lord came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest…and the hand of the Lord was upon him. And I looked, and behold a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud and a fire enfolding itself, and a brightness was about it…and out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures.
“And this was their appearance…as for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, the face of a lion, on the right side, and they four had the face of an ox on the left side, they four also had the face of an eagle….”
The Scene of God’s Throne in Revelation 4:1-6 In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back. 7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle. 8 Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under its wings. Day and night they never stop saying: “‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.”
God lovingly reveals to man as best He can… To tell us of Heavenly things, spiritual wonders and to proclaim the way to Heaven.
JESUS He spoke to us of GOD SPOKE….. All throughout the scriptures… In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, He spoke to us of JESUS
