• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: much because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: for today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: yesterday's portion of heavenly manna, the word of God to
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: keep us through today's challenges. On this program, we are
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: going to change all of that. Let's experience God's words
• 0:22

• 0:46
  Speaker 2: today is no exception. We are continuing in our lesson
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: study series Lessons of Faith from Joshua, and our caption
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: for today is it's a terminology that is theological in nature,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: like that people may not be familiar with, but it's
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: biblical typology. Biblical typology. We'll come into that in just
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: a moment, but first I'd like to say welcome to
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: everyone joining us, especially those joining us for the very
• 1:14

• 1:34
  Speaker 2: This is one of the ways that we continue to
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: build faith and fellowship. Let's pray, Father, thank you for
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: this day, thank you for not leaving us in the shadows.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: In Jesus' name, I pray Amen and a men again.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: So typology you've already read, likely the lesson application, not
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: the application guide, the adult study guide. I won't use
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: the same definition that's right there in clear and clear language.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Let me say it another way. When you're looking at
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: types or typology in the Bible, you're looking for what
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: is in front of me, and what does it mean?
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: What is in front of me, and what does it
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: ultimately mean. One of the best types or examples of
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: typology in the Scriptures is when John the Baptist saw
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. As John was baptizing in the Jordan River.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: He sees Jesus afar off and he guides everybody's mind
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: and eyes and attention and says, behold the lamb of God.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: He's the one that takes away the sins of the world,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: the lamb. In that economy, that what they call sacerdotal
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: system or the system of ceremonies and sacrifices. Those people
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: knew what the lamb was ford had to do with.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: You know, without shedding of blood, there can be no
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: remission of sins. And so a symbol of what you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: the transfer of the guilt of sin from the human
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: who committed the sin, to the actual sacrifice, to the priest,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: to the anyway straight through until the end of the process.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: That was a symbol of something, a shadow that represented
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: something in this case someone. The lamb of God, which
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: takes away the sins of the world, is the fulfillment.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: He is the anti type. He is the genuine article.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: And this is why when Jesus finally actually gave his
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: life for us, then we needed we did not need
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: the lambs and other sacrifices anymore. They were nullified or
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: full filled in Christ. Okay. So that's the normal English
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: speaking version, okay. And so what we're gonna do now
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: is go into the Book of Romans, chapter five and
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: verse fourteen and be a little bit less cerebral the
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Bible reads, nevertheless, death reigned from Adam to Moses, even
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: over them that had not sinned. After the similitude of
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him who was
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: to come, the one who was to come? Okay? And
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: so that word two posts in Hebrew the word two posts,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: or pattern or model or example is a Biblical real person, event,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: or object divinely designed to foreshadow a future fulfillment in Christ,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: known as the end type. In this case, repeating Adam,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: for example, prefigured Jesus, the first atom, bringing sin and death.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: So the first atom, that's the one who was created
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: by God, the one who was in eden Eve's husband,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: He's the first atom. He brought sin and death. The
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: second atom now is bringing the opposite, righteousness and life.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Now the action step really is, now that we've gotten
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: all of these things in our minds, ask God to
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: show you how these Old Testament truths reveal Christ's character today.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: What I want you to do is read one Old
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Testament story this week, at least outside of maybe this
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: lesson study, and identify what it foreshadows about Jesus. And
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I don't want you to just get stuck in the
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: what because that's the easy part. Well, how does that
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: transform my life? How is it that the second atom principle,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: like Jesus Christ coming to become the fulfillment of what
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Adam messed up?
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: How is that useful in your life? How will that
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: help you react to the world around you? How will
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: that help you as you raise your children or your grandchildren?
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: How will it help you in your workplace? How will
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: that reality help you when you God, for if you
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: God forbid, stumble into sin again and you're like, God,
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: I need you to please, please forgive me, forgive me
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: for my sins. How does that all come together so
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: that you can be transformed? So that's what I am
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: asking you to do. And let me read a quote
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: really quickly. I don't know that we'll get to all
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: of our lessons for this morning, but I'm reading from
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: James White review and Harold April three, eighteen fifty five,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: and it reads the types and shadows of the law,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: where like the dawn before the day. Have you ever
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: heard that perspective? Were like the dawn before the day?
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: So that means you know something wonderful is about to happen,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: You know something is just over the horizon. You know
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: that as you can see the light from the in
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: the sky starting to intensify, that the sun will be
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: fully revealed. Right, continuing the quote, when the sun of
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: righteousness arose, the shadows fled away. I remember writing a
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: devotional entry in I think it was. Yeah, it was
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: my first book in two thousand and four. I said
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: four two thousand and four, and it was titled Bye
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: by Shadows, Bye by shadows. Because of this, So, the
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: shadows are cool if they guide us to the genuine article,
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: the reality. But you don't if a child sees his
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: daddy in a sh shadow and feels comforted by knowing
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: daddy is watching over him in the bed at night,
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: because the hallway light is is casting on the daddy,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: and then the daddy's shadow is there and you hear
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: the daddy's voice. The child is not going to jump
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: out of bed and go hug the shadow. No, the
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: child is going to jump out of bed and run
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: to his or her actual daddy because the shadow just
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: let the child know that daddy is here and Daddy's
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: about to do something special. I feel comforted, I feel protected,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: I feel nurtured, I feel covered. I know that Daddy
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: is here, okay, and then let me just read one
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: more quote here from the Desire of Ages, page seventy seven.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: All the ceremonies of the old economy in the Law
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: were prophetic, typical of the mysteries of redemption. Every type
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: met its anti type in Christ. That means that everything
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: that had to do with the sacrificial system that mattered
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: for our actual atonement. I needed to say that I
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: wish I had the time to go into Leviticus chapter sixteen,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: but I don't. But all of those things pointed forward
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: to Jesus. So why would I go back and hold
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: on to the Old Testament way of doing things when
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: I have Jesus Christ, the righteous one who's ever living,
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: to make intercession for me. Well, I'm grateful that God
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: has given us biblical symbols, but I'm more grateful for
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: what they represent Jesus Christ himself. No more shadows. Y'all,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: make it a great day, peace.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. Friends. Always remember we cannot
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: live by bread alone, but by every word that comes
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: from the mouth of God. This has been your daily
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: portion with el David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
