represents the Outer Court of the Tabernacle – Justification by
Faith. 1 & 2 Corinthians represent how the church of Corinth had
moral lapses in relationship to the great standard restored through
Martin Luther. Galatians shows how the churches in the area of modern
Turkey departed doctrinally from the key teaching of this letter, and
through the Judaizers sought to return to the legalism of Jewish
standards. Even in the Old Testament, only Gentiles living in close
proximity to Jews were required to move in this manner, and in the
latter part of Acts 15 were freed by God from even this.</font></p>

saw Ephesians as the high point of church truth in the Bible. It is
rich in pictures and analogies of the relationship of believers –
both Jew and Gentile – to Christ. Philippians is the Holy Spirit
through Paul shoring up lapses in Joy and Unity from this high
standard. Colossians points out doctrinal aberrations from Ephesus,
and tendencies to revert to worship of angels, and departing from God
the Father’s true standards for His Son. Greek cults of that day
sought to wean true believers from the way God sees these things, and
God used Paul by the Spirit to seek to return them to the true
Plumbline of truth. Arianism and Jehovah’s Witness cultism was in
existence back then! It is </font><font style="font-size:11pt" size="2"><u>here</u></font><font style="font-size:11pt" size="2">

& 2 Thessalonians prepare God’s people for the Second Coming of
Christ and the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. The early church
constantly kept this truth in view. George Muller in his day did the
same, and Mother Basilea Schlink. Here believers experience the
first-fruits of Bridal-Love with Christ. Here one enters the riven
veil, and experiences divine relationship in the Holy of Holies.</font></p>

is one other key thought that emerges clearly from this passage –
“The One New Man.” Reuven Doron has written a book in the early
1990’s with this title. By all means do a “Google-Search” and
order it. It is clear, warm and living. The recent writings of Dr.
Daniel Juster also clearly bring out this truth of Jew and Gentile in
one body, the Church. Mike Bickle has partnered with Juster to give a
living example of this truth. </font>
