THE WAY, THE
TRUTH AND THE LIFE
3 DOORS OF THE
TABERNACLE
The Gates back to
Eden’s Glory
The following is a theological study of the 3 Gates or
Doors of the Tabernacle of Moses and then the subsequent Temple
of Solomon. These 3 veils or curtains reflect the divine
attributes of who and what Jesus is and came to do
prophetically. And these 3 Gates are what leads one back to
Glory, to Eden, i.e., Paradise.
Colossians 2:17. It is only
a glimpse into the ‘template’ as one will attempt to attribute
it to Biblical typologies with that of Jesus’ body and
accomplishment that opened the way back to GOD the Father. One
will then apply this same 3-door template to how the Believers
and Followers of Jesus ought to likewise portray and emit it
from one’s own being.
It is precisely because of one’s divine design and purpose that
is but a reflection of the 3-door template, anthropomorphically
of what and how Jesus fulfilled.
Matthew 28:19-20. This is
especially the case as the people of Jesus are spirit-filled and
redeemed humans on this side of the Rapture. Such are or should
be striving to emulate Jesus as admonished in
Galatians 4:19 to
‘Be Holy as I AM Holy’, etc.
1 Peter 3:15. This Divine
3-door template originated in Exodus after the Israelites were
led-out by Moses. As Israel sojourned to the Promised Land,
Jehovah instructed Moses to build a facsimile on Earth of the
House and Throne of Jehovah that is in Heaven.
Exodus 31-37.
This was known as the Tabernacle of Moses that had 3-doors of
entry. It later became the Temple desired by King David but
built by Solomon. Israel made a Marriage Vow or Covenant with
Jehovah on Mount Sinai. The literal representation of Israel’s
vow, i.e., the Tablets of the 10 Commandments and Jehovah’s
Presence was manifested in that midst of the encampment. Thus,
the need for the Tabernacle or body to house the physical
emblems of that marriage vow.
Exodus 24:3-8.
Metaphorically, they sojourned together, sort of speaking into
the Promised Land. Jehovah’s Presence went with Israel as a
cloud by day to shelter the Israelite encampment from the heat
of the day and by a pillar of fire at night to cover them from
the desert cold.
Consider that given such a marriage Covenant of Moses at Sinai,
the purpose of the Tabernacle served as a constant and visual
reminder to the people of Israel of their marriage vow made to
Jehovah. And the Ark of the Covenant was the centerpiece that
served as the throne of Jehovah and the repository for the
Covenant ‘Contract’, etc. But the facsimile of Jehovah’s House
and Throne on Earth was also a representation of the Divine
Dimensions that encoded the Plan of Redemption for all of
Humanity to come through Israel. This 3-door Template would 1
Day come to life in their promised Messiah, Jesus who took on
Human flesh, walked and talked, etc. This plan, having many
typologies, eventually eliminated the physical barriers between
man and Jehovah.
This is the Way
Total access to the creator Jehovah was accomplished
after the death of Jesus on the cross as the Temple veil was
torn from top to bottom. Direct access is now possible because
Jesus' flesh was torn instead. These 3-doors of entry back to
Eden were restored to Adam that began in Eden, but access was
closed with the Seed War. But later, Jehovah narrowed down a
human bloodline in which to execute His Plan of Redemption
through which the door to Eden could be reopened. In terms of
nations, it started with Israel’s commitment to Jehovah with the
Mosaic Covenant. It was conditional based on Blessings or
Curses.
Jeremiah 31:31-32. The
curse brings death.
And Israel became unfaithful, so much so that Jehovah
later had to ‘Divorce’ her because Israel sinned worse than the
pagan nations around her. But the 3-door template always taught
the divine truth and Plan of Salvation. It was and is that the
redemption of Adam’s race was to be based on a better Covenant,
the New Covenant. And how the Tabernacle would come to life and
open all those 3 curtains. In so doing, Jehovah, the Father
sought a faithful Bride for GOD the Son. And for that, GOD the
Father had to seek-out a Gentile Bride, because yet again,
Israel rejected Jesus as their true Messiah that they were
promised and could have and should have married.
So, how was Israel to teach the nations about how to
approach the Living GOD, Jehovah? What was that like or should
have been? Israel should have been an exemplary nation showing
the way, being truthful and championing life to the world. It
failed. The approach back to Eden is based on 3 Protocols that
are defined by the 3 veils or curtains that the Tabernacle and
later Temples had. It literally embodied what Jesus said of
Himself to be, the Way, the Truth and the Life. The following is
how the very Sacred Space and the manner of approach into the
inner sanctuary is made.
Foremost, the Tabernacle of Moses was defined within a sacred
space of the Israelite camp. It was like a house, essentially
and the body one argues, can be seen anthropomorphically and
fulfilled in Jesus. The Tabernacle of Moses had 3 Gates or
Doors. According to the Rabbinic Oral Tradition as told to
Joseph Prince Ministries, his friends in Israel that were
Rabbis, confirmed that it is the case. The 3 veils were called:
The Way, The Truth, and The Life.
John 14:6. Here are the 3
Gates or Doors that delineated the and how one argues can be
directly attributed to the mission of Jesus and how they
personified the Plan of Redemption back to Eden, to the Creator.
DOOR 1: THE WAY – OUTER COURT
Enter through the Narrow Gate. For wide is the Gate
and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter
through it. Matthew 7:13.
DOOR 2: THE TRUTH – HOLIES
I saw Heaven standing open and there before me was
a White Horse, whose Rider is called Faithful and True. With
justice he judges and wages war. Revelation 19:11.
DOOR 3: THE LIFE – HOLY OF HOLIES
Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have
Eternal Life: and they are they which testify of me. John 5:39-47.
Redeeming the Time
The 1st Door was called the ‘Way’. This allowed the
Israelites to enter the outer courtyard where the Altar of
Sacrifice and the Laver of Water were situated. It was there
that the people brought their Offerings to atone for their sins.
It was done daily. These 2 items spoke of the Water and the
Blood of Jesus. These 2 Elements are what flowed out from the
very side of the body of Jesus at the Cross of Calvary.
John 19:34.
The Jewish Priests would be working or ministering in the
Tabernacle of Moses and could enter the 1st Chamber of the House
itself. This entrance was through the 2nd Door called ‘The
Truth’. To enter this chamber called the Holies, the Priests had
to not only offer the Sacrifice to be ‘Right’ before the
Creator, but one had to also wash.
Ephesians 5:26. In such a
place and time, it was mainly the washing of one’s feet, hands
and face. That is what corrupts, temps and defiles one’s body,
soul and spirit. These Gates are based on the 7 physical
orifices within the head of a human being.
2 Eyes
2 Ears
2 Nostrils
1 Mouth
It is about where one goes, what one sees and what one
handles that will defile a person. But there are themselves, the
‘gates’ to one’s soul.
Mark 7:15-23. Later, Jesus
would teach that it is not what contaminates a person that comes
from the outside going into one’s body, but what comes out from
the heart. Now what exacerbates this situation is how one must
also keep the doors to one’s soul and spirit in check.
Proverbs 4:23. Besides
these 7 Doors or Gates to one’s heart, there is the brain in
one’s head where ideas, persuasion and temptation affects the
mind.
It is taken to be where the seat of intellect, cognition
and discernment resides. As the Priests would pass through the
Door of Truth that would lead into the Holies, one could
consider it as being the ‘kitchen’ and living room of Jehovah’s
home. This is where there was a table with bread on it. Then
there was the Menorah of the 7 lights that illuminated the
chamber. Then finally, there was the Altar of Incense that faced
the entrance to the 3rd Gate called the Door of Life. As to the
attribution of these 3 furnishings in the Holies? They inferred
the Divine Plan and typology realized in Jesus. He said the
following of Himself in that regard, prophetically.
1) TABLE OF BREAD: ‘I am the
Bread that came down from Heaven’.
This was in reference to how Jesus was the Manna during the
Exodus. John 6:35.
2) MENORAH OF LIGHT: ‘I
am the Light of the World’.
Jesus said that He is the Light of the World. John 8:12. This
refers to the Menorah of Lights that is fed by the oil. It
illuminated the entire chamber so the Priest could see what
they were doing and not grope in the darkness, etc.
3) ALTAR OF INCENSE: ‘I
am ascending to my Father and your Father’.
Jesus is that sweet savor smell of a perfume that accentuates
a home at peace and in harmony. Jesus is likened to the
Altar of Incense because, like the Altar, He serves as a
Mediator between the Father and Humanity. John 20:17. Jesus
is currently offering ‘sweet’ prayers and intercession on
behalf of His Church Body. The Altar's Incense symbolizes the
prayers of the Redeemed in Jesus, which are made acceptable to
the Father through Christ's offering.
_____________________
Plan of Redemption
The 3rd Door, called ‘The Life’ is where it separated the
Holies Chamber from the Inner Sanctum. This chamber was called
the Holy of Holies. It was a perfect Cube entirely layered with
gold. At the center, the Ark of the Covenant was situated. This
furnishing was as a Throne Chair for Jehovah.
Isaiah 66:1. It could be
likened to the ‘bedroom’.
The lid was called the Mercy Seat. Inside the Ark were the 3
Items that represented Israel’s unfaithfulness, murmuring and
contention against Jehovah. These were the 2 Tablets of Stone
that Moses had to recreate. The original ones impressed by the
very finger of Jehovah were smashed by Moses during the Golden
Calf incident.
Exodus 34:1-9. Then there
was the Jar of Manna or bread.
It was a reminder of how Jehovah provided Israel with
bread from Heaven. Then there was the staff of Aaron that budded
as a Sign of who was to be chosen for the Priestly Service.
According to the Rabbinical Oral Tradition, there was an
‘Orb-Like’ presence that radiated from in-between the 2 Cherubim
at each edge of the coffer.
Exodus 25:22. Symbolically,
this Divine Template depicted how the Mercy Seat that was above
and covered the Ark triumphed over the Law and Death below.
2 Corinthians 3:7-9.
This next section will specifically attribute all these
3-doors and furnishing types to how they were fulfilled in
Jesus. This notion is well established to be the case, but first
a bit of Biblical context. Jesus came into the ‘Egypt’ of
Lucifer’s Earth due to the fall of mankind in Eden. The Fall
forfeited the direct access Adam had to Eden, as the door or
gate to eternal life was shut due to their disobedience. Adam’s
dominion and authority over the entire Earth was usurped by
Lucifer. Worse, is that through sin, Death was now employed as
Lucifer condemned every human soul to Hell for having Humanity
join his rebellion against Jehovah.
Romans 5:12-21. And what
was and is this rebellion about?
Lucifer’s agenda has been to overthrow Jehovah’s throne
in Heaven and set his Throne above that of Jehovah.
Isaiah 14:14. It is
speculated by some that in some fashion, Lucifer had dominion or
administration of the Earth before his fall. So, a re-creation
of the Genesis account of how Jehovah created Humanity in His
‘Image and Likeness’, i.e., the human body was and is a direct
threat to Lucifer’s Agenda. It is because it would be through
the Seed of the Woman, i.e., Eve, who he deceived, that Lucifer
would be defeated by Jesus’ body.
Genesis 3:15. And that
occurred and was accomplished at the Cross of Calvary by the
Seed of Eve. The following will be the 7 main Tabernacle of
Moses furnishings that adorned the House of Jehovah, on Earth as
it is in Heaven. And that they represent a facet or dimension of
what Christ represents and fulfilled in Jesus that opened the
3-doors back to Paradise, to have direct access to Life again.
THE DOOR
Jesus stated that He is the only Gate or Door back
to the Father and ultimately a restored Eden. John 10:9-16.
BRAZEN ALTAR
Jesus is the Altar of Sacrifice that the Cross of
Calvary represents. 1 John 2:2.
LAVER OF WATER
He is the Laver of Water that provides daily
cleansing for one’s sins while still in a body of flesh
awaiting the new one that is sinless and incorruptible and
interdimensional. John 7:37-39.
TABLE OF BREAD
Jesus is the Table of Bread that provides daily
sustenance. John 6:35. This
is now done in terms of reading and meditation, gestating and
metabolizing His Word, daily. It ought to be.
MENORAH OF LIGHTS
Jesus is the Menorah of Lights. John 8:12. Jesus
illuminates one’s path and understanding to see the tasks,
commission, burden or work the Holy Spirit has tapped a
Believer and Follower of Jesus with. The Word of the
Scriptures will provide that daily dose of the Anointed Oil to
keep the flames of the 7-Branch Menorah fervent.
ALTAR OF INCENSE
Jesus is the Altar of Incense. As a Believer and
Follower of Jesus, after being spiritually fed, seeing the
glory of Jesus’ triumph over Satan, Sin, Self and Society. It
is to appreciate just what took place outside the Camp during
His Crucifixion, in how Jesus was tortured, betrayed, beaten,
stripped naked and nailed to a tree. One cannot but praise Him
in prayer and worship as they go up as ‘Incense’ before the
throne of the Father in Heaven. Isaiah 53:5-12.
JESUS IS THE ARK OF THE COVENANT.
He came to Earth to fulfill the Law of Moses. He
allotted Humanity 2 Days or 2000 year of mercy. 2 Peter 3:8. No
longer are any doors or gates closed as one in Jesus can now
boldly enter the throne room of Jehovah to supplicate and
petition the Father directly. Hebrews 4:16.
_____________________
Only Jesus can purify a sinner from the daily sin that comes in
through Satan’s temptations, from one’s heart, mind and that of
the world.
1 John 2:16. Jesus provided
the water and the blood as that Laver to wash one’s sins away as
far as the ‘East is from the West’.
Psalm 103:12.
If a true Believer and Follower of Jesus gets to this
realization in their lives, there will be, there can only be
nothing but faithfulness and obedience. This is true love, it is
exclusive and it restricts.
2 Corinthians 2:15.There is
now no Curtain of Separation between the Holies and the Holy of
Holies.
Matthew 27:51. Jehovah was
restricted from having full human interaction, even in the midst
of His Earthly people Israel because of His holiness.
Hebrews 10:20. But because
of the finished work of Jesus at the Cross, the New Covenant of
Mercy has triumphed over the Law of Moses that condemns.
James 2:13. This love is
exemplified in the 3-door Template that was patterned after the
house and throne of Jehovah in Heaven.
Anthropomorphic Pattern of the Tabernacle
It is forever to be as a Testimony. It is a Testimony of
who Jehovah the Creator is, what He did and what Humanity can
become, as originally designed for. And that is? It is about a
marriage, a relationship, a Covenant as with a husband and wife
keeping a sacred vow. This is what a Christian has with Jesus.
Ephesians 5:32. Thus, the
3-door template is how Jesus has now opened them, removing all
obstacles for Humanity to be led back to the Father and a
restored Eden. And it takes 1 human at a time during these 2
days or 2000 years of the Church Age. It is where GOD the Holy
Spirit, like Eliezer the Servant of Abraham is going out to seek
a Gentile Bride before dealing with Israel.
It is a Bride for the Son of the Father that goes beyond
just Israel because of Israel’s unfaithfulness. He is
‘proposing’ to every man and woman.
Genesis 24:2. Consider the
typology of Adam and the Last Adam, Jesus. In Eden, a Garden,
Adam, as a sinless man was put to a deep sleep, as unto death.
From his side, Jehovah took from his rib, piercing him that
produced water and blood. From this material, Jehovah then
constructed Eve. Then the Father raised Adam to present him with
his Bride, Eve. Likewise, Jesus was pierced on His side and
water and blood flowed out. Jesus was then buried in a Garden
Tomb, died and was ‘put to sleep’. But the Father raised Jesus,
a sinless man from the dead to then present Him with the Bride.
And who was the 1st person Jesus appeared to? Mary
Magdalene as the Greater Eve, redeemed. That Bride is all those
individuals that say ‘I Do’ to Jesus’ proposal and collectively
become the Bride of Christ. So, the story of Humanity started
with a marriage in Genesis and ends with a marriage in
Revelation. GOD the Holy Spirit is searching for those Humans
that will say ‘I do’ to Jesus like Israel said to Jehovah at
Mount Sinai. But the Holy Spirit is searching for that type of
Bride, like Rebecca, a Rahab, a Ruth that will forsake all that
is in the world for Jesus. The Holy Spirit is searching for
those men and women that will commit to be faithful as to a
marriage vow or Covenant.
And what is in it for Humanity? Everything.
Genesis 24:58. Jesus, as
the Groom and the Heir is wanting and willing to share all that
has been given to Him by the Father.
And that is all power and authority Jesus delights in
giving His Kingdom as He wishes for His Bride to be Co-Heirs in
ruling the Universe and even judging Angels, for example.
Romans 8:17. Until that
time, Jesus has commissioned all those that have said ‘Yes’ to
His Marriage Proposal to likewise imitate Jesus and be all that
Jesus represents, even as with the 3-door template.
Matthew 28:19-20.
Jesus Followers and Disciples are commanded to replicate
this 3-door divine pattern of the Tabernacle of Moses in
everything to show the world how to return to Eden. How? It is
by showing them the Way, Jesus. It is by being True. And it is
living a Life of separation through inner holiness. It is
because Jesus made that tabernacle and stone temple into flesh
and personified just that, the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Sure, this is the challenge as the Redeemed still reside in the
Temple of Flesh and are still subject to sin and death. But the
promise is what awaits the Bride, a new Temple, a new body that
will be interdimensional and indestructible.
Colossians 3:17. The goal
is to present as many people as possible one can bring along to
present them at the throne seat of Jehovah.
2 Corinthians 5:10
Living Sacrifices
This is the purpose of the Church body. The Great
Commission is to bring many Sons to Glory.
Hebrews 2:10. It is the
Holy Spirit that enables one to fulfill Jesus’ Commission. It is
because Jesus does not ‘Call the Qualified, He qualifies the
Called’.
Matthew 28:18. But
people in the world must be shown the 3-Doors opened in one’s
life, reflecting the Offering Jesus took for the 3-Doors to be
reopened and Humanity to be redeemed and brought back to the
Father’s House in a restored Eden.
Romans 12:1.
People must see in one’s life the encouragement to want
to be Saved. One must be washed in the Water and Blood of Jesus
to bring others to that same Altar of Sacrifice and the Laver of
Water represented. They must then be ushered into the Holies. It
is there and then that people can see within one’s life the
light of the Menorah. It is the reflected life of Jesus that is
shining outward and exposing the darkness in the world. It is
done by exercising Jesus’ Authority and Power of the Holy Spirit
in one’s life and where one lives and works.
Matthew 5:14-16.
One must take care of daily Menorah needs to maintain the
flow of the oil of the Holy Spirit. People must be taught the
Truth about Jesus. And how this Truth is upheld and reflected in
one’s life. It is essential so that people can see that
disposition in one’s life by a demonstrative life of Truth,
i.e., the Fruit of the Spirit.
John 4:24. People will know
if one is faking it. It is that people, once saved, need to be
discipled.
Ephesians 4:12. It is in
the Holies that one is fed of the true Bread of Life, Jesus.
As one is, one can share that with other people as they
too are brought to Jehovah’s Table to feed from the Word, the
bread, etc. Then, out of a grateful heart, worship is the
attitude that is presented before the Father as a sweet aroma
pleasing to the Father at the Altar of Incense.
Ephesians 5:19. From there,
the 3rd Door or Gate, that of Life is now open. There is now no
condemnation, and one can boldly approach the Throne of Jehovah
in the Holy of Holies where the true Ark of the Covenant is in
Heaven.
Revelation 11:19
What is amazing to consider is that although the
Tabernacle and later the Temples of Jehovah were stationary and
made of Stone, Jesus stated that the reason why He had to leave
Earth was to prepare a Wedding Chamber in that Inner Sanctuary
of the Father’s House in Heaven.
Isaiah 26:20. And that 1
day, He would return for His Bride.
John 14:3. But that Bride
is being build-up with Living Stones, into a Spiritual House.
1 Peter 2:5. And unlike the
Tabernacle of Moses or the fixed Temples of Jehovah, this
Spiritual Temple is alive and mobile.
As a redeemed human in Jesus, one can be personified like
being a living Tabernacle of Moses that can move, walk and talk.
One can take this 3-door Template into any place one exists:
home, work, city, state, nation, world, etc. Even though on this
side of the Rapture, one still is confined to a mortal body of
sinful flesh, one’s physical body is what is the last of the 3
components to be precisely redeemed or rather actualized at the
Resurrection-Rapture event.
Matthew 28:20. It will be
about one’s body being transformed into an immortal state. That
is the Blessed Hope. What one currently has is a seal and a down
payment in an earthen vessel. The whole is to be realized at the
Resurrection-Rapture.
2 Corinthians 1:22. And
when will that occur?
A Better Covenant
Based on one’s research into typologies, it could be
pegged to the agricultural cycles of the First Fruits. How so?
Jesus was the 1st Order of the Resurrections to come. Jesus, as
the First Fruit, secured the whole Resurrection of His Body,
i.e., His Bride to be harvested later. When? One is convinced
that it will also coincide with a First Fruit timing. Which one?
the First Fruit of the New Wine. He sanctified the whole as He
was and is the First Fruits of the harvest types. This
insinuates that the Resurrection-Rapture Event could likewise
coincide with a First Fruit Feast that will see the final
construction of His Greater Eve completed as it was in Eden.
1 Corinthians 15:23. In
actuality, the present 2-day or 2000-year Church Age has been a
'slow-motion' work of what occurred in Eden with Adam. The
Church Age has been like a 'Deep Sleep' episode in which the
Greater Adam, the Last Adam is to wake one day, the last day of
the Church Age Commission to see and receive His Bride like Adam
did. And Eden will be restored thereafter.
It is because the 3 doors of the Way, the Truth and the
Life protocols of approach to the dwelling place of Jehovah on
Earth, as it is in Heaven were personified and opened
permanently in Jesus. He was and is the literal anthropomorphic
iteration of the Tabernacle come to life. Every facet of its
design, layout and function are a dimension of Jesus’ ministry
and purpose. And that is where one’s body and purpose likewise
should reflect this way back to Eden, as a living, breathing,
thinking, talking testimony. It is if one is so inclined to have
this marriage relationship, this Covenant with Jesus. It is only
through Jesus who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
As Jesus was raised from the dead on the First Fruits of
the Barley and ascended on the First Fruit of the Wheat, then,
per one’s working model, the subsequent Resurrection Order must
thus coincide with the First Fruit of the New Wine. This is what
corresponds and occurred, in one’s interpretation in Acts 2.
Regardless of one’s calculated Rapture corresponding date, the
Resurrection-Rapture is what has been promised to His Bride and
is expected.
Titus 2:13. It will be when
Jesus returns for His Bride when faith will become sight and
there will no longer be a need for Prophecy.
1 John 3:2. As
Psalm 23:6 states, ‘And
one will dwell in the House of the LORD forever’.
______________________
Summary
This theological analysis explores how the 3 Doors or
Gates of the Mosaic Tabernacle serve as a prophetic blueprint
for the redemptive mission of Jesus Christ. Known traditionally
as the Way, the Truth, and the Life, these Doors represent the
progressive stages of Spiritual Restoration required to return
Humanity to a state of paradisiacal glory. The study parallels
specific Tabernacle furnishings—such as the Brazen Altar and the
Ark of the Covenant—with Christ’s physical sacrifice and His
role as a divine Mediator. Beyond historical typology, the study
asserts that modern believers must embody this 3-door template
within their own lives to reflect holiness to the world.
Ultimately, the study frames the New Covenant as the mechanism
that tore the Veil of Separation, granting individuals direct
access to GOD the Father through a spiritual marriage
relationship. This journey concludes with the anticipation of a
future Resurrection-Rapture, where the faithful of Jesus, as the
‘Bride’ are fully restored to the eternal presence of Jehovah.
