WHERE TROUBLE STARTED

Genesis 1:26-28 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and o the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over ev creeping thing that creeps on the earth." God created man in His own ima in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. G blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of th sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth." Genesis 3:13 Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" And the woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." 1 Timothy 2:14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woma being deceived, fell into transgression. ´ GOD IS SINLESS; SINNERS ARE NOT LIKE HIM Genesis 5:3 When Adam had lived one hundred and thirty years, he became father of a son in his own likeness, according to his image, and named him S

THE TERRIBLE RESULT

eath entered: Genesis 2:16-17 The LORD God commanded the man, aying, “From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; but from the tree e knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you ea

• m it you will surely die.”

ankind’s control of earth was lost: John 12:31 “Now judgment is up is world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.” an is in slavery: John 8:34 Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say

• u, everyone who commits sin is the slave of sin.
• one would spend eternity with God: Romans 4:14 For if those who

re of the Law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise is nullified; MANKIND WAS IN A TERRIBLE STATE; EVEN THE LAW, WHEN FINALLY GIVEN, COULD NOT CHANGE THE LOST STATE OF MAN alatians 3:21-22 …For if a law had been given which was able to impar fe, then righteousness would indeed have been based on law.

ENTER THE LAW

Romans 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? May it never be! O the contrary, I would not have come to know sin except through the Law; Galatians 3:23-24 But before faith came, we were kept in custody unde the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed. Theref the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be just by faith. THE LAW PROVIDED A REDEMPTION MODEL; WE HAD NO ONE ELIGIBLE MAKE THE REDEMPTION. Why? The Redeemer had to be a blood relative (nearest who was able/willing) The Redeemer had to be willing (this was going to cost something) The Redeemer had to be able (a slave must redeem himself before he is a to redeem another slave)

DUTIES OF KINSMAN REDEEMER: GA’AL

Redeem his relative who was in slavery (we are in slavery to sin) Redeem the land his relative lost (we lost the earth) Serve as guiltless judicial executioner of his kinsman’s murderer (John 8: "You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your

• father. He was a murderer from the beginning…)

Married the woman who had no heirs; produced heir for the original husb PEOPLE NEEDED REDEMPTION IN ALL FOUR AREAS BUT LACKED A RELA WHO WASN’T BORN OF THE SEED OF MAN, THUS BORN INTO SLAVERY Hebrews 2:14-15 Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might re powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might f those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives. Luke 1:35 The angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will com upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for t reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of God.

JESUS FULFILLS THE LAW

Matthew 5:17 “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.” Ephesians 1:9-10 He made known to us the mystery of His will, accord to His kind intention which He purposed in Him with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of the times, that is, the summing u all things in Christ, things in the heavens and things on the earth.

HOW DID JESUS DO THIS? AS THE KINSMAN REDEEMER. WHAT PRICE DID HE

Exodus 12:21-23 "Go and take for yourselves lambs according to your families, and slay the Passover lamb. You shall take a bunch of hyssop an it in the blood which is in the basin, and apply some of the blood that is in basin to the lintel and the two doorposts; and none of you shall go outsid the door of his house until morning. For the LORD will pass through to sm the Egyptians; and when He sees the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, the LORD will pass over the door and will not allow the destroy to come in to your houses to smite you.”

GOD’S LAMB

Exodus 12:14 Now this day will be a memorial to you, and you shall celebrate it as a feast to the LORD; throughout your generations you are t celebrate it as a permanent ordinance. John 1:29 The next day he saw Jesus coming to him and said, "Behold, Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! The Passover Ritual: Nisan 10: the lamb to be sacrificed was chosen and presented at the temp Matthew 21:8-12 Most of the crowd spread their coats in the road, and

• thers were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them in the roa

The crowds going ahead of Him, and those who followed, were shouting, "Hosanna to the Son of David; BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME THE LORD; Hosanna in the highest!" When He had entered Jerusalem, all city was stirred, saying, "Who is this?" The crowds were saying, "This is th prophet Jesus, from Nazareth in Galilee." Jesus entered the temple and dr

• ut all those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned th

tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling dov

LAST SUPPER

fter entering Jerusalem on Nisan 10, the Bible records three teaching days

• nday, Tuesday, Wednesday

Luke 22:19-20 And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He roke it and gave it to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you his in remembrance of Me." And in the same way He took the cup after the ad eaten, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covena y blood. 3 Matza on the plate at beginning of meal; center one broken; half wrapped The broken piece of matza, called the afikomen, is the last thing eaten The cup after supper (1 Corinthians 11:25 In the same way He took the lso after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do thi

• ften as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”)

The cup after supper foretold the Messiah Matthew 26:39 And He went a little beyond them, and fell on His face an rayed, saying, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not I will, but as You will."

PASSOVER WEEK

isan 14, which would have been Thursday, was the Day of Preparation un undown

• hn 19:13-14 Therefore when Pilate heard these words, he brought Je
• ut, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Pavement, b

Hebrew, Gabbatha. Now it was the day of preparation for the Passover; it bout the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, "Behold, your King!" The lambs began to be sacrificed at the 9th hour (3:00 PM) atthew 27:46, 50, 51 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a lou

• ice, saying, "ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" that is, "MY GOD, MY GOD

WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?" … And Jesus cried out again with a loud

• ice, and yielded up His spirit. And behold, the veil of the temple was t

n two from top to bottom; and the earth shook and the rocks were split. Yielded: aphiemi: allowed; permitted

Hebrews 9:16 For where a covenant is, there must of necessity be death of the one who made it. Diatheke: last will and testament

ABOUT THE VEIL

10

THE TORN VEIL

Behind the veil was the ark of the covenant (first temple only) where the blood was sprinkled on the Day of Atonement by the High Priest Hebrews 8:4-5 Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest at al since there are those who offer the gifts according to the Law; who serve copy and shadow of the heavenly things, just as Moses was warned by God when he was about to erect the tabernacle; for, "SEE," He says, "THAT YOU M

all things ACCORDING TO THE PATTERN WHICH WAS SHOWN YOU ON THE MOUNT

Hebrews 8:1-2 Now the main point in what has been said is this: we ha such a high priest, who has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne the Majesty in the heavens, a minister in the sanctuary and in the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.

SIGN OF JONAH

Matthew 12:39-40 But He answered and said to them, "An evil and dulterous generation craves for a sign; and yet no sign will be given to it he sign of Jonah the prophet; for just as JONAH WAS THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS IN THE BELLY OF THE SEA MONSTER, so will the Son of M e three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. esus rose on Sunday Mark 16:2 Very early on the first day of the week, ame to the tomb when the sun had risen. The rabinnical “3 day” teaching (resurrection of Lazarus John 11:39) John 19:31 Then the Jews, because it was the day of preparation, so tha

AFTER THE RESURRECTION

cts 1:2-3 …after He had by the Holy Spirit given orders to the apostles hom He had chosen. To these He also presented Himself alive after His uffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of for ays and speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God. cts 1:9-11 And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while the ere looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And as they w azing intently into the sky while He was going, behold, two men in white lothing stood beside them. They also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you sta

• oking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into hea

ill come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven." THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST IS BEING DESCRIBED HERE UT BEFORE THAT HAPPENS, JESUS COMES BACK FOR HIS CHURCH esus paid the sacrificial price for redemption in all four areas needed by us e has transacted business only with our soul/spirit; our bodies are redeem t the “rapture” or catching up of the church

13

THE RAPTURE

1 Corinthians 15:50-53 Now I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood annot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable inherit the

• mperishable. Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we wil

e changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; he trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we w e changed. For this perishable must put on the imperishable, and this mor ust put on immortality. hen this happens, our redemption from slavery is completed Romans 8:23 And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first f

• f the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for

doption as sons, the redemption of our body. The Kinsman Redeemer also marries the one without heirs so that there w

• eirs. The church is described as the “bride of Christ,” heirs according to t

romise

COMING FOR THE BRIDE

THE BETROTHAL: Agreement made between the bride and groom THE CUP: A cup of wine was shared indicating the agreement was sealed THE BRIDEGROOM GOES TO PREPARE A PLACE for the bride in his father’s house John 14:2 "In My Father's house are many dwelling place it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.” THE BRIDEGROOM LEFT GIFTS for his bride so that she could function until he returned for her Ephesians 4:7-8 But to each one of us grace w given according to the measure of Christ's gift. Therefore it says, "WHEN H ASCENDED ON HIGH, HE LED CAPTIVE A HOST OF CAPTIVES, AND HE GA GIFTS TO MEN." THE BRIDEGROOM CAME BACK FOR THE BRIDE at a time appointed his father Matthew 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not e the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.” John 14:3-4 "If and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, t where I am, there you may be also. And you know the way where I am going."

15

WHEN HE COMES

HE BRIDEGROOM RETURNS FOR THE BRIDE, usually at night with t rama of torches and the shofar blowing HE FRIEND OF THE BRIDEGROOM announces the coming of the ridegroom along the way HE BRIDEGROOM CALLS TO THE BRIDE to come with him and they turn together to his father’s house to the place prepared Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven ith a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, e dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be aught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and e shall always be with the Lord. HE MARRIAGE of the Lamb: Revelation 19:7-8 "Let us rejoice and be g nd give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His ride has made herself ready." It was given to her to clothe herself in fine nen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

ADDITIONAL THINGS PURCHASED

Jesus not only paid the price for our redemption, making us eligible to be married to Christ creating heirs but also for… THE REDEMPTION OF THE EARTH (His relative’s lost land) Revelat 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. THE JUDICIAL EXECUTION OF THE MURDERER OF HIS KINSMEN Revelation 20:10 And the devil who deceived them was thrown into th lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. Revelation 20:14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of f This is the second death, the lake of fire. AT HIS FIRST COMING, JESUS FULFILLED THE SPRING FEASTS AT THE RAPTURE AND THE SECOND COMING, THE FALL FEASTS WILL BE ULFILLED
