Second aspect of the reformation (part 2)

The blood of Jesus Christ which cleanses us from all sin when we have fellowship with one another and presents us holy, blameless and irreproachable in the sight of the Father is through the cup of the New Covenant which we partake of when we are having a holy convocation. Furthermore, the man objective of having a holy convocation is to offer to the Lord the food for His offerings.

For we have been duly instructed saying; “These are the feasts of the LORD which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, a burnt offering and a grain offering, a sacrifice and drink offerings, everything on its day.”

This offering is besides the observance of the Sabbaths of the LORD, besides our gifts, besides all our vows, and besides all our freewill offerings which we give to the LORD” (Leviticus 23:37-38).

The reason why this offering is so vitally important when having a holy convocation it is because, “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness: If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us” (1John 1:8-10).

And the crux of the matter is, God in no way will co-exist with sin therefore, sins must be confessed and forgiven before we can have fellowship with one another and with the Father and the Son. We are to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

One also has to be mindful of the fact that, the High Priest will not offer any offering on behalf of anyone without the individual presents his or her offering to the High Priest. Each individual is responsible to bring his/her offering to the High Priest so that the High Priest can make intercession to the Father on the individual’s behalf.

Another very important consideration is the fact that, true believers, the called out ones are considered as living stones that are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. They are regarded as a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that they may proclaim the praises of Him who called them out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy” (1 Peter 2:-10).

The reason why many of us stumble it is because we are being disobedient to the word, to which we also were appointed which is to be a nation of priests offering to the Lord the food for His offerings at their appointed time and it is also the reason why many among us are weak and sick and many sleep: It is simply because we are not properly discerning the Lord’s body and are not following the protocol which has been ordained and established by the Melchizedek priesthood
