God is satisfied, all our sins are paid in full

Propitiation over the Ark

 

          God tells about the Mercy Seat in Exodus 25:17-22. A slab of pure gold, the same length and width as the Ark, was the Ark's cover. Made from the same piece of gold and fashioned at the ends of the Mercy Seat were the cherubim.

God said that between these two  cherubim and above the Mercy Seat is where He would meet and commune with Israel.

 

          The word for Mercy Seat is the same word translated "propitiation," which means to placate, appease, or make satisfaction. The work of Jesus Christ is seen as the fulfillment of the Mercy Seat;

 

          "My little children these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: and he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world" (1 Jn 2:1-2)

 

          Now, God is HOLY. The seraphim cry, "Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord of hosts" (Is. 6:3). Any sin is a heinous offense to God's holiness. Divine justice demands that sin be fully punished, for in no way can an infinite and holy God be generous or lenient toward man in forgiving his sins. The righteous demands of God's Law must be fully met before God can have anything to do with sinful man. However, God's matchless love has provided the one and only way that God can remain just and yet justify the sinner and that is at the Mercy Seat. Christ has satisfied God's every demand for righteousness and the righteous settlement of man's sins. "Christ has once suffered for sins" 1 Peter 3:18. He died for our sins, paid our debt in full, was buried, rose again and was seen by hundreds 1 Cor 15:1-4. He shed His blood to wash away our sins. Christ is the propitiation for our sins. 1 Jn 2:1,2. YOU are loved by god and me, ABC Sumner

Prov.14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

WHAT AN IDEA. "Your ticket to Heaven" is being translated into 12 languages. Six have found Christian printers who will print it for them, some free and some very reasonable. We have found it wont work trying to print them here and ship them to you.

May you see the hand of God upon you Ezra 6-8 and the power of God flow through you Jn 7:38,39 and the glory of God in you 2 Cor 3:18.

Take a few seconds and pray for Darlean. Her husband was on my staff at Liberty U. He just went home to heaven. "Do unto others as you would have them do to you"

Have a wonderful freedoms day

We celebrate our independence every year on July 4 th and rightly so. We as Americans have so much to be thankful for and to rejoice in. It is a TRAGEDY that we are losing so many freedoms. BUT, God said to Israel "Thou shalt remember the DAY when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt (out of bondage) ALL THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE" Deut 16:3.
 
I was saved March 28, 1940 and I have not gotten over it yet and still celebrate that day. I now get everyone I can to remember that day they were saved. We must not forget or get over it.
 
"Enter into His gates with thanksgiving" Please take a few moments right now to THANK Him for saving you and setting you free from bondage now and hell in eternity. Now just stay in love with Jesus. Tell Him right now, I love you Lord Jesus. You are loved by God and me, All Because of Calvary.
 
William Jennings Bryan, posing for a portrait, was asked by the artist, "Why do you wear your hair over your ears?"
 
Mr. Bryan answered, "There's a romance connected with that. When I began courting Mrs. Bryan she objected to the way my ears stood out. So to please her, I let my hair grow to cover them."
 
"But that was many years ago," said the artist. "Why don't you have your hair cut now?"
 
"Because," twinkled Bryan, "the romance is still going on."
 
Lets keep the romance with the Lord Jesus going on.
 
"We should be far more concerned with the future than the past."
 
Pray for Glenna, She just lost her husband, a cherished friend of mine

Somethiing new! Health tips we can all use

"They word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against thee" Ps 119:11
Celeste and I memorized hundreds of verses through Young Life and the Navigators. It is the best medicine we have ever had. It will heal and cure more spiritual diseases than any other thing. Memorizing Scripture is a lost art. Try it for yourself, memorize one verse a week. Repeat it to one another for seven weeks and it will last a life time.
 
Physical health: Cinnamon & Honey 
"This was all given to us by a health therapist". Sumner Facts on honey and cinnamon:  It is found that a mixture of honey and cinnamon cures most diseases. Honey is produced in most of the countries of the world.  Scientists of today also accept honey as a "Ram Ban" (very effective) medicine for all kinds of diseases.   Honey can be used without any side effects for any kind of diseases. 
Today's science says that even though honey is sweet, if taken in the right dosage as a medicine, it does not harm diabetic patients.  Weekly World News, a magazine in Canada, on its issue dated 17 January, 1995 has given the following list of diseases 
 that can be cured by honey and cinnamon as researched by western scientists: 
 
FATIGUE: 
Recent studies have shown that the sugar content of honey is more helpful rather than being detrimental to the strength of the body. Senior citizens, who take honey and cinnamon powder in equal parts, are more alert and flexible.  Dr. Milton, who has done research, says that a half tablespoon of honey taken in a glass of water  and sprinkled with cinnamon powder, taken daily after brushing and in the afternoon at about 3:00 p.m. when the vitality of the body starts  to decrease, increases the vitality of the body within a week. 
 
Sumner's testimony. For a year I have gone down physically. My energy level has been at the bottom and I have never had problems with lack of energy. Taking honey and cinnamon faithfully for a month and my energy has been fully restored. I am feeling better than I have for a year. There are about 17 possible helps and cures from this formula. I am going send one with each email MWF for the next few weeks so keep opening each one. I genuinely love each of you and care about both your Spiritual and physical health. ABC Sumner
