MODULE 2: THE NEW TESTAMENT WAY TO DEAL WITH YOUR HUMAN ENEMIES BY EVANGELIST OGHOGHO IKPONMWOSA (PHD)




The book of Leviticus is full of laws which we are not required to follow today as those under the New Covenant.

I shall list a few of them so as to drive home the point that the Old Covenant is indeed different from the New Covenant and we cannot do everything we see written in the Old Testament without checking them with the New Testament Law of love.

As you read through this list remember that nothing that defiles or is unclean will be allowed to enter the New Jerusalem (The glorious city of God after the second resurrection and white throne judgment) Rev 21:27.
Let us begin.

1. The Old Testament Saints were to eat only certain beasts or animals. They were forbidden to eat several animals because the animals were unclean to them. Animals like snail, Pig, Fishes without scales, etc. were all unclean and should not be eaten. They also became unclean if they touched a dead animal or if a dead animal fell upon them. If the dead animal also fell on any vessel of wood, or skin or piece of cloth or water body, they all became unclean. If the dead animal also falls on any seed which is to be sown, the seed becomes unclean. Lev 11:1-47.

2. If a woman gives birth, she is unclean and must continue in the blood of her purifying for some specified days. She has to come to the Priest at the end of the specified period with specified animals to make atonement for her cleansing and she shall be cleansed. This means she became unclean just because blood is flowing out of her due to child birth and not because she did anything that broke the New Testament law of love. Lev 12:1-8.

3.  If someone has an infectious skin disease anywhere on his body he will be ceremonially unclean.  He must be separated from the Camp. Eczema is included in these infectious skin diseases that could make them unclean. Lev 13:1-59, 14:1-33.

4. Even a house where a mildew or mould or mushroom is growing could be considered unclean if the mildew continues to spread. Once the house is confirmed unclean it must be torn down and taken out of the town to an unclean place. If it is left and someone enters into it, the person becomes unclean until the evening. Lev. 14:34-57.

We shall continue with this list in the next module.

Story of how LESTER SUMRALL met with HOWARD CARTER

LESTER Sumrall was a 20th century giant of faith, and worldwide missionary statesman, who demonstrated the power of the gospel in his pastoral and evangelical ministry. He also had a personal relationship with Smith Wigglesworth. And travelled widely with Howard Carter. This, culled from Dr. Sumrall's 'Pioneers of Faith', is the story of how he met Mr. Carter. It was 1932. Brother Lester was 19, and brother Howard was 41: I was sitting in a little church in Tennessee looking at the young man who was leading the music. Suddenly, the scene before me vanished, and I saw thousands of Japanese, Chinese, Lndians, Malaysians, Indonesians, Indians, Africans, Latin Americans, Europeans and people from the ocean islands on one road going one direction ...Trembling and crying, I asked, "What shall I do?" God said, "You have to go to these people." I said, "I don't like those people. I have never seen a Japanese person in my life. I don't know tho...

THE OLD CONVENANT IS A SHADOW OF THE NEW CONVENANT [pt 4] - Min. Awe Hilary

It is an interesting fact to know that 99.99% of most religions practiced today are imitations of either the Mosaic law as given to the Jews by God or idolatry as invented by men through the interface of spiritual entities as a way of worship. Idol worship and the Mosaic law are the oldest well known religious institutions that have existed on the earth. The Mosaic law which is the Old Convenant is a shadow of the New Convenant which could not come into effect as long as the law was still in place. Hebrews 9:8 [AMP]: By this the Holy Spirit signifies that the way into the Holy Place [the true Holy of Holies and the presence of God] has not yet been disclosed as long as the first or outer tabernacle is still standing [that is, as long as the Levitical system of worship remains a recognized institution]. More also, if the Old Convenant is a shadow of the New Convenant, then it signifies that they both have One Spirit [The Spirit of God], same pattern with different realities but one purp...
