The Tabernacle of Moses from its front to back<\/strong> represents one\u2019s progression in their spiritual journey starting with their initial salvation leading to the glorification of the physical body and eternal life in YHVH\u2019s eternal spiritual kingdom. Entering through the front door of the tabernacle and progressing to the holy of holies is from the human perspective as one moves toward Elohim; it is the perspective of moving from the human to the spiritual plane of existence or that of the earthbound looking heavenward. However, from YHVH Elohim\u2019s view from the glory cloud that has hovering over the holy of holies just above the ark of the covenant, the perspective was different. It was from the inside looking out, or from heaven looking downward. We will discus the contrasting viewpoints between the human and divine in a moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In the outer court of the tabernacle, all the rituals and furnishings pointed to death and judgment, as well as to washing or cleansing. These prophetically foreshadowed salvation through Yeshua\u2019s atoning death on the cross, with Yeshua being the door to salvation, and one\u2019s need to accept his death on the cross for one\u2019s sins followed by the need of baptism for the remission of sins. In the set-apart (kadosh<\/em> or holy) place inside the tabernacle, everything pointed to life, light, food, fragrant incense, the fruits and gifts of the Set-Apart Spirit\u2014or life in a spiritual relationship with Elohim subsequent to one\u2019s taking the beginning steps in the salvation process. The outer court speaks of basic salvation for the redeemed believer in Yeshua, while the holy place speaks of spiritual growth and maturity, of moving from spiritual babyhood and then growing into spiritual adulthood or maturity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To understand this process of growing in spiritual maturity, it is necessary to comprehend the tripartite composition of the human being. Paul speaks of man being subdivided into three parts\u2014body, soul and spirit (1\u2009Thess 5:23). The tabernacle\u2019s outer court seems to relate more to the physical or bodily realm of the person, while the holy place speaks more of the soul or intellectual, volitional and emotional aspects of one\u2019s inner or psychological makeup. Finally, the holy of holies portrays man approaching YHVH through the realm of a person\u2019s inner or personal spirit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As one progresses into the tabernacle, it is as if YHVH is drawing a person into an ever deeper relational walk with him starting at the most basic level progressing upward until one is finally communing with YHVH on a Spirit-to-(human personal)-spirit level (in the most holy place). It is the Father\u2019s desire that his children progressively grow until each of us is communing with him at the highest spiritual level (see John 4:23\u201324). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As noted earlier, this forward progression from the tabernacle\u2019s entrance to its innermost room is but one way to view a person\u2019s spiritual progression into the realm of the Spirit of Elohim. From YHVH\u2019s perspective looking from the inside of the tabernacle outward, the view changes. Although one has to enter the tabernacle through the outer gate and then go through various rites and rituals relating to a cleansing process before being allowed into the tabernacle itself, at the same time, we see YHVH starting to work with the person from the inside out. When a person initially comes into a spiritual relationship with his Creator, YHVH first regenerates the person spiritually by putting his Set-Apart Spirit in the spirit of the person. In a sense, if the tabernacle is a picture of the tripartite subdivision of a person\u2019s life (body, soul and spirit), then YHVH starts working from the inside out in one\u2019s personal spirit, which is one\u2019s personal holy of holies that is inside of them, if you will. From there, the Set-Apart Spirit goes to work on the person\u2019s soul (mind, will and emotions) to transform it spiritually into the image of Yeshua (Rom 8:28\u201329). This process will last a person\u2019s lifetime. Finally, at the resurrection at Yeshua\u2019s second coming, the saint\u2019s will receive their redeemed and glorified or god-like body (1 John 3:1\u20132). At this time, they will become full-fledged, immortal spirit-children of Elohim (John 1:12). Though the Bible teaches that humans can become sons of Elohim and be like him as part of his divine family, man will never be equivalent to Elohim in a full sense (Isa 45:5, 6, 12, 18\u201319, 21\u201323). Only Elohim is the Creator, is without a beginning, and is all powerful, all knowing and all present. Man will never attain to this level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The process of man going from being a physical and human creature to becoming an immortal and glorified child of the Most High, in theological terms, is called theosis. <\/em>This is an ancient Christian concept that is still held by the Eastern Orthodox Church and refers to the spiritual process that occurs resulting in the deification of man. <\/em>The goal of theosis<\/em> is to become \u201clike\u201d (though not equal to) Elohim and to become eventually united with him spiritually. Theosis<\/em> is the biblical concept of a redeemed or spiritually regenerated individual \u201cbecoming a partaker YHVH\u2019s divine nature\u201d (2 Pet 1:4), and being adopted into the family of Elohim (see the verses below). It is about man becoming like<\/em> Elohim\u2014becoming part of the family of Elohim as a child of Elohim (John 10:34; Ps 82:1; 1 John 3:1\u20133).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is our theosis<\/em>, that as the Ruach haKodesh <\/em>(the Set-Apart Spirit) identified Yeshua as the Son of Elohim at his baptism, so we take the first steps of becoming a son of Elohim at our baptism when we become a new creation through Yeshua and the work of the Set-Apart Spirit (Gal 2:20; 2 Cor 5:17). At that time, one is begotten into the family of Elohim, and when one receives one\u2019s glorified body at the resurrection one will be fully born or adopted into the family of Elohim as a full-fledged son of Elohim, for, as the Scripture says, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is (1 John 3:1\u20133).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul refers to theosis<\/em> in several places when he uses the term adoption<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption<\/strong>, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. (Rom 8:15)<\/p>

And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body<\/strong>. (Rom 8:23; also 9:4)<\/p>

To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons<\/strong>. (Gal 4:5)<\/p>

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children<\/strong> by Yeshua the Messiah to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will\u2026 (Eph 1:5)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The apostolic writers make further reference to theosis<\/em> in several other places as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

But as many as received [Yeshua], to them He gave the right to become children of Elohim<\/strong>, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of Elohim. (John 1:12\u201313)<\/p>

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of Elohim and of Yeshua our Master, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature<\/strong>, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. (1 Pet 1:2\u20134)<\/p>

Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of Elohim<\/strong>! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are children of Elohim; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. (1 John 3:1\u20132)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

So, as we have seen, there are two spiritual processes going on at the same time in a person\u2019s life as portrayed by the spiritual model of the Tabernacle of Moses. At the beginning of one\u2019s spiritual walk, a person starts out in the physical dimension in the outer courtyard and ends up in the spiritual dimension in the holy of holies. This represents spiritual cleansing from sin and unrighteousness that brings one progressively closer to YHVH Elohim as one becomes more and more like him until one is united with Elohim through \u201cmarriage\u201d to Yeshua in the New Jerusalem. This is theosis<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, YHVH starts working in a person from the inside out by first redeeming one\u2019s spirit, then one\u2019s soul during one\u2019s lifetime, and finally one\u2019s body at the resurrection of the dead. These two processes are occurring simultaneously to form a complete spiritual transformation or work in one\u2019s life resulting in a physical human being becoming an immortal child of Elohim, who has the character of Yeshua. Such a person is one that YHVH Elohim will be pleased to spend eternity with in the New Jerusalem, which is spiritually pictured by the glory cloud of YHVH\u2019s presence that hovers over the holy of holies of the Tabernacle of Moses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For theosis <\/em>to occur, one must first have their personal inner spirit spiritually activated by Elohim. In one\u2019s indigenous or innate spiritually unregenerate state, one is like an unlit candle that YHVH must supernaturally light with the divine light of his Set-Apart Spirit through a spiritual relationship with Yeshua. We then become \u201csons of light\u201d (John 12:36; Luke 16:8; Eph 5:8; 1 Thess 5:5). The Scriptures speak of this process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. (Job 32:8)<\/p>

Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth? (Eccl 3:21)<\/p>

The burden of the word of YHVH for Israel, saith YHVH, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. (Zech 12:1)<\/p>

For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of Elohim knoweth no man, but the Spirit of Elohim. (1 Cor 2:11)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

A person cannot enter into a relationship with a YHVH, who is a Spirit, through one\u2019s soul (i.e. one\u2019s mind, will and emotions). To do so is merely a human attempt to earn one\u2019s own salvation. This is called humanism <\/em>and is what drives all the false, non-biblical religions of the world as well as some religions purporting to be Bible-based. <\/em>Elohim is a Spirit, and one must relate to him through the Spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of Elohim, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. (1 Cor 2:14) <\/p>

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. Elohim is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. (John 4:23\u201324)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

For a person to enter into a spiritual relationship with their Creator, YHVH Elohim, one must do so through one\u2019s spirit. This means that one\u2019s spirit must be activated at the time of one\u2019s spiritual birth. When this occurs, one receives in himself the Spirit of Elohim, which activates and controls the personal spirit in that person, which in turn controls the soul (the mind, will and emotions), which in turn controls the body directing it what to think, say and do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we are born again from above, our personal spirit is activated by the Spirit of Elohim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The spirit of a man is the lamp of YHVH, Searching all the inner depths of his heart. (Prov 20:27) <\/p>

But there is a spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty gives him understanding. (Job 32:8)<\/p>

The Spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are children of Elohim (Rom 8:16) <\/p>

That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Messiah may dwell in your hearts through faith (Eph 3:16\u201317)<\/p>

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from Elohim, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by Elohim. These things we also speak, not in words which man\u2019s wisdom teaches but which the Set-Apart Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of Elohim, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. (1 Cor 2:12\u201314)<\/p>

But you have an anointing from the Set-Apart One, and you know all things. \u2026 But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him. (1 John 2:20, 27)<\/p>

And every spirit that does not confess that Yeshua the Messiah has come in the flesh is not of Elohim. And this is the spirit of the Antimessiah, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. (1 John 4:3)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The Tabernacle of Moses is a glorious picture or template of this spiritual process that occurs deep within the minds and hearts of those who willingly submit to it. Most humans refuse YHVH\u2019s invitation to be transformed spiritually from the inside out because of their spiritual blindness, rebellion, stubbornness, pride and the deceitfulness of the pleasures of sin. For those who submit to YHVH\u2019s plan of spiritual redemption, the process is difficult, but the end results are glorious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s more, the three pilgrimage festivals (Exod 34:18\u201322), when all Israel would go up to where YHVH had placed his name (Deut 16:2, 6, 11, 15), seem to suggest this three-part spiritual progression in a believer\u2019s life as well. The ceremonies occurring in the outer courtyard picture Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the menorah in the holy place symbolized the Feast of Week, and the ark of the covenant in the holy of holies symbolizes the Feast of Tabernacles. We see, therefore, that the three pilgrimage feasts picture a person\u2019s upward spiritual journey toward Elohim as one draws ever closer to him with the occurrence of each successive feast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where would you place yourself in the tabernacle? What object or location in the tabernacle best represents where you are at in your spiritual journey toward inclusion in YHVH Elohim\u2019s eternal and spiritual family? (Consider the idea that each of us should be everywhere in the tabernacle all at the same time.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So why did YHVH take such great pains to construct a physical layout of the steps that each of us must take in our own spiritual journey toward ultimate spiritual intimacy and oneness with him as represented by the holy of holies in his tabernacle, which also represented his dwelling place on earth among his chosen people (Exod 25:8)? It should be evident that YHVH is trying to reveal through illustrative means some deep spiritual mysteries to those who have ears and eyes to hear and see and hearts to perceive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is interesting to note that there are also three stages in the Hebraic or biblical wedding. They are the betrothal, consummation and celebration stages. In the \u201cgodhead\u201d the Bible reveals that there are also three aspects or subdivisions. They are the Father, Son and the Set-Apart Spirit. Additionally, John talks about three classes of believers, which are children, young men, and fathers (1\u2009John 2:12\u201314), which appear to represent three stages of spiritual progression or maturity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of these sets of three (the three parts of man, the three subdivisions of the Tabernacle of Moses, the three pilgrimage feasts, the three parts of the biblical wedding) all relate to each other and to YHVH\u2019s plan of redemption of humans as he brings each person into an intimate and eternal spiritual relationship with himself through Yeshua the Messiah.<\/p>\n
