The Pathway is in the Sanctuary

Explanation of the Graphic Above

Thy way, O 'Elohiym, is in the sanctuary . . .

Psalms 77:13

The Courtyard - Phase 1   Passover, Abib 14, A.D. 31

The pathway of old is "the way" of the Sanctuary, the preordained system by which mankind may be restored to their Heavenly Father.  Only on this pathway has provision been made by the three part ministry of our Messiah and Saviour, Yahushua. This time-centric pathway commences at the "east gate," of the outer courtyard of the Sanctuary (Temple) of Yahuwah. Yahushua (Jesus) said, "I am the door . . ." John 10:9. He also said, "I am the way . . ."John 14:6. This is where Justification by Faith in the merits of the Saviour's sacrifice is given and received, once and for all. Typified in the earthly Sanctuary rehearsal, the High Priest entered the outer courtyard to sacrifice the lamb daily at sunrise just prior to sunset. Once a year for 1500 years a Passover lamb was slain on Abib 14, commemorating the night the death angel passed over and none of Israel were slain. It also pointed forward to the sacrificial trade the Messiah was to make on behalf of mankind. Taking upon Himself our destiny of death and giving us His destiny of eternal life. This he did precisely on time according to the prophecies of Daniel.

The Holy Place - Phase 2     Pentecost, Sivan 9, A.D. 31

The High Priest then carried the lambs blood via the same path "way" into the first apartment (the holy place) every day of the year, sprinkling it at the altar of incense before the curtain. The purpose of the blood was for the forgiveness of sin.  The lamb gave up its life for the sin of the humble and confessing sinner.  The priest passed by the table of shew bread and the seven golden lamps as he went straight in before the altar of incense and then returned via the same pathway. The sinner waited in the outer court, but followed the priest into the holy place by faith. By faith the sinner had assurance of forgiveness by way of the life of the victim given whose blood was then taken before the altar of incense.

The Holy of Holies - Phase 3     Day of Atonement, Ethanim 10, 20_ _

Once each year the ministry of the High Priest changed, yet, this same path "way" was taken by the High Priest who alone went beyond the veil of the Holy place, and into the second apartment (the Holy of Holies) for the final purification and removal of all previously confessed sin of Israel. The entire nation of Israel entered in at the open "east gate" to assemble for this important event. This day, known as Day of Atonement, represented the judgment and close of probation. The High Priest did not carry the censer or sprinkle the blood of a lamb before the veil, as all sins were to be previously confessed. Instead he took the blood of Yahuwah's goat, slain for all previously confessed sin, in beyond the veil and sprinkled it upon the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant. This was a yearly rehearsal and representation of the full restoration and at-one-ment that forgiven sinners by faith would receive on the great and final judgment day by their heavenly Father.

Return to the Courtyard - Phase 4  Feast of Tabernacles, Ethanim 15, 20_ _

Five days following this one day event and ministry phase the High Priest returns from the Most Holy Place to the courtyard (earth), by way of the same path.  Here the people were assembled and waiting, bringing with him the reward of full and complete restoration to the heavenly Father for all those who humbled and confessed. Likewise, our Redeemer and High Priest, Yahushua (Jesus) will on this same time system, return to earth along the same time-centric path at His second coming. 

Earthly Rehearsals of the Heavenly Sanctuary Restoration System

These four phases of ministry were earthly rehearsals with the use of animal sacrifices by divine design to portray the true lamb, the Messiah who was to come to earth (courtyard) and lay down His life for all mankind.  The Messiah's first coming was to take on the role of the sacrificial lamb on the specific date of Abib 14, A.D. 31 as counted from the New Moon. Second, He took on the role of High Priest and intercessor for confessed sin and the advocate for sinners, in the holy place of the heavenly Sanctuary on the specific date of Pentecost, the 9th of the Third Month, A.D. 31. Thirdly, He will be our High Priest in the final restoration of at-one-ment just prior to returning to earth on the specific Day of Atonement, 10th day of the Seventh Month (year not known yet).  When this third ministry is completed, He returns to earth at His second coming on the specific date of the 15th day of the Seventh Month (year not known yet), which according to the Sanctuary types, earth is represented by the outer courtyard, the place where the Messiah laid down His life. 

Feast Days are Time Prophecies

Thus, each phase of His ministry was preordained and marked by the prophetic Feast days according to the lunisolar calendar model shown to Moses upon the mount (Hebrews 8:5).  By divine design, each Feast is a time prophecy of the restoration work of our Saviour on behalf of mankind.  We are to follow Him by faith in His work in the heavenly Sanctuary above.  This is what is meant by "following the lamb, whithersoever He goeth." Predominantly, the work of the Sanctuary is both event and time related; as a result, together they declare the only "way" to the Father is through His Son, Yahushua. Each and every aspect is according to lunisolar time.  Lunisolar time is now and has been from eternity past, the time system of heaven and the unfallen worlds.

While the "east gate" of the Sanctuary in heaven today is opened on New Moons and Sabbaths, each new phase of His current ministry is marked by a prophetic Feast date. Passover, Abib 14, A.D. 31 marked His sacrificial death as the Lamb slain from the foundation of the earth.  Pentecost, Sivan 9, A.D. 31 marked His entering into the holy place as High Priest unto the forgiveness of sin.  Day of Atonement, Ethanim 10, 20_ _ will mark the close of probation and the final judgment of earth. Feast of Tabernacles, Ethanim 15, 20_ _ will mark the return of our Redeemer at His second coming. 

Here in the book of Ezekiel we find a "thus saith Yahuwah" that He ordained three kinds of days each month, which are named and have specific function. Notice below that the "east gate" of the temple, being open or closed for worship, actually defines that these days can never overlap. New Moon days and Sabbaths are both identified as worship days in contrast to work days. Each day is either a work day or a worship day and can never be both. There is no guess work here. New Moon days will never fall on work days, just as Sabbaths can never fall on work days. Likewise, New Moon days can never be seventh-day Sabbaths, because the New Moon day must always be the first day of the month, as it marks the first day following the sighting of the first visible crescent lunar phase.

• Two kinds of days make up the Biblical week - work days and Sabbaths.


• But three kinds of days make up a Biblical month - New Moon days, work days and Sabbaths.


• The east gate is opened for worship on both New Moon days and Sabbath days.


• The east gate is shut for worship on work days.


• Sabbath days and work days never overlap.


• New Moon days and work days never overlap.


• New Moon days and Sabbaths never overlap, as they were divinely designed as distinct kinds of days.


• Therefore, the New Moon day that occurs once each month is never a work day or a seventh-day Sabbath.


• However, by its very existence, the New Moon day breaks the cycle of work days and Sabbath days, each lunar month.


• It is impossible for the Creator's weeks to have cycled without end, since creation, for the mere fact that there are three kinds of days and not just two, "as all the world have wondered after the Beast," in believing.


• Cycling weeks cannot remain unbroken for 6,000 years, 6 months, or 6 weeks, for the very reason that the New Moon day exists and continues to stand as a beacon of time, thus breaking the week cycle each and every month.


• All units of time are heralded by the three part orchestration of the sun, moon and stars, the great "principles that rule in the heavens". These alone bear the signature of the Creator.

Further support that seasons are defined by lunar months, and Sabbaths are defined by signs in the heavens:

• He appointed the moon for seasons . . . Psalms 104:19

• It shall be established forever like the moon, even like the faithful witness in the sky." Psalms 89:37

• Moreover I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign (#226 owth) between them and Me, that they might know that I am the Lord who sanctifies them.  Yet the house of Israel rebelled against Me in the wilderness; they did not walk in My statutes; they despised my judgments, which, if a man does, he shall live by them; and they greatly defiled My Sabbaths.  Ezekiel 20:12-13

• I am the Lord your God:  Walk in My statutes, keep My judgments, and do them; hallow My Sabbaths, and they will be a sign (#226 owth) between Me and you, that you may know that I am the Lord your God. Ezekiel 20:19-20

• They also who dwell in the farthest parts are afraid of your signs [#226 owth]; you make the outgoings of the morning and evening rejoice. Psalms 65:8

• Your enemies roar in the midst of your meeting place; they set up their banners [counterfeit wall calendars with continuous weekly cycles] for signs [#226 owth].  Psalms 74:4

Do not learn the way of the Gentiles; do not be dismayed at the signs [#226 owth], of heaven [#8064 shamayim - revolving celestial bodies] for the Gentiles are dismayed at them.  For the customs of the peoples are futile . . . Jeremiah 10:2-3 NKJV
