“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”

Deuteronomy 8: 3 So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen

Hallelujah 

The Bride, the church washing and cleansing of sin by the word of our Lord Jesus Christ

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, if the bride, the church’s inner man is not safe guarded, the skin of the inner body is stained by sin and the dirt in it will appear as leprous. The person seeing this is our priest, the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, we also meditated regarding how we should receive freedom from it. 

Also, Leviticus 13: 9 – 17 “When the leprous sore is on a person, then he shall be brought to the priest. 

And the priest shall examine him; and indeed if the swelling on the skin is white, and it has turned the hair white, and there is a spot of raw flesh in the swelling, 

it is an old leprosy on the skin of his body. The priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not isolate him, for he is unclean.

“And if leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the one who has the sore, from his head to his foot, wherever the priest looks, 

then the priest shall consider; and indeed, if the leprosy has covered all his body, he shall pronounce him clean who has the sore. It has all turned white. He is clean. 

But when raw flesh appears on him, he shall be unclean. 

And the priest shall examine the raw flesh and pronounce him to be unclean; for the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy. 

Or if the raw flesh changes and turns white again, he shall come to the priest. 

And the priest shall examine him; and indeed, if the sore has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean who has the sore. He is clean.

When we meditate upon these verses if a person has leprosy he should be brought to the priest. But in these days, the bride, the church means when we do sin, our Lord Jesus Christ sees it immediately. That is, if we see that the swelling on the skin is white, and it has turned the hair white, and there is a spot of raw flesh in the swelling, it is an old leprosy on the skin of his body. He is unclean and we should not isolate him, but he should be pronounced unclean. This is the second type of leprosy. 

But when the priest sees, if leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the one who has the sore, from his head to his foot; because it has covered all his body, he should be pronounced as clean.  Because all his body is white, it is written that he is clean. This is the third type of leprosy. But even though the third type of leprosy is pronounced as clean if raw flesh is seen on him, he is unclean. God pronounces him as unclean and pronounces it as leprosy.

But if the raw flesh changes and turns white again, he shall come to the priest and if he sees that the sore has turned white, then God is telling to pronounce him as clean. This is because in Isaiah 1: 18 “Come now, and let us reason together,” says the Lord, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

From this what we know is that if we realize our sins and if we ask God for forgiveness and if wash and cleanse ourselves by the blood of the Lamb, we will become as white as snow. Then God will pronounce us as clean. Also, as an example Luke 5: 12 – 14 And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, you can make me clean.”

Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him. 

And He charged him to tell no one, “But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a testimony to them, just as Moses commanded.”

When we see here, the leper fell on his face to Jesus and told him that if You are willing, you can make me clean and He put out His hand and said, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately he was cleansed. Then Jesus is telling that “But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, just as Moses commanded.” From this what we know is that he who is making us clean if he wills, he is doing it.

But in Luke 17: 11 – 19 Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 

Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off. 

And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

So, when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so, it was that as they went, they were cleansed.

And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, 

and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.

So, Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? 

Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” 

And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”

When we meditate upon these verses, ten lepers stood afar from Jesus, and they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” Then when Jesus said “Go, show yourselves to the priests”, as they went, they were cleansed. This thing, they were healed by the word that came from the mouth of Jesus. Among those that were cleansed, nine people did not come back to Jesus. Only one person came back. He was a foreigner. Jesus told him “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”

From this the thing that we must know is that if we remove sin and are cleansed by the word of Jesus, the faith that we have on his name will save us. In this manner, let us all wash our sins everyday and we cleansed by the words of Jesus.

Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
