SEPARATING THE SPIRITUAL FROM THE PHYSICAL

THE HIDDEN MEANING

INTRODUCTION

     In these next scriptures, we at VAL-TE’ offer our perspective that represents the transition, of a person who sacrificed himself and especially life itself for the good of all. For Immanuel has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us; not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood of another – He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this judgment, so Immanuel was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation. Hebrews 9: 24-28 NKJV

Biblical Word

     DEATH – For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.” “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Immanuel. 1 Corinthians 15: 53-57 NIV

Reference

     11 Corinthians 5: 13-18 – Are we really insane? It is for God’s sake. Or are we sane? Then it is for your sake. We are ruled by the love of Immanuel, now that we recognize that one man died for everyone, which means that they all share in his death. He died for all, so that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but only for him who died and was raised to life for their sake. GNT

Significance

     Transition (Physical, Spiritual and Eternal) – We at VAL-TE, also believe is a perfect example of those who paved the way, sacrificing their own needs and wants in order to do things for others. God saved us and called us to be his own people, not because of what we have done, but because of his own purpose and unconditional love. He gave us this unconditional love by means of Immanuel before the beginning of time, but now it has been revealed to us through the coming of our Savior, Immanuel. He has ended the power of physical death and through his message, revealed Spiritual and Eternal life.
