It is so enlightening to realise that the place where we meet with God, as typified by the propitiation place, is Christ Himself; whenever God meets us and speaks with us, Christ is present, and He’s the redeeming and shining Christ. It is not a small thing for us to know how to come to […]
God Meets us, Speaks to us, and Infuses us on the Propitiating Christ in the Glory
The fact that God met with His people and spoke to them from above the expiation cover and between the cherubim signifies that God meets with us and speaks to us in the propitiating Christ and in the glory expressed by Him as His testimony. This is very significant, for we cannot just meet God […]
