Hi,
I am looking for a place to share a gift. So far, I have found people who mock the gift. And some call me a heretic for having the gift and wanting to share it.
Jesus said that all the scriptures beginning with Moses spoke of Him. Some preachers of the past have described the scriptures as a tapestry.
I have gotten a glimpse of the tapestry. And though I cannot see it all at once, I can trace the threads from picture to picture of Christ. Here is an example of a place where the threads come together.
I will skip the references so it won't be tedious:
The dust thread starts in Genesis when Adam is called from the dust and given life. This thread winds around and we see that when we are in the dust we are dead, and also said to be asleep.
An empty vessel without bracelets is said to be unclean.
A goat is used for a sacrifice to remove sin
The rod is used for power and discipline.
It is appointed unto man to die once, and the city of Timnath, means the appointment.
These are a few of the threads that come together in Genesis 38.
Judah has a son and calls him Er, which means 'awake'. If asleep is dead and in the dust, awake is alive and from the dust. Er becomes a shadow of Adam who was called alive from the dust.
Judah chose Tamar to be a wife for Er.
Adam and Er were killed by God because of sin. Adam, the first man died without a living 'spiritual' heir, which is why we must all be born again, and why Jesus became the firstfruits of mankind. Er died without an heir.
Then Judah gave Tamar to Onan to bear living children for Er. But he refused and spilled his seed on the ground. He testified that his children (seed) would also be earthly children, not living children. He represents Israel whom God called to be his witnesses and bear living children on behalf of Adam. Yet God tells Israel that they "would not". Israel begat earthly children.
So Tamar waited a long time for Shelah to grow up and be given to him as a wife. But Shelah never got the chance. Joseph was the rightful heir to the throne of David, but was never given the chance, and Mary knew no man.
As the appointed time grew near for Christ's death and Mary there, we find Tamar before Timnath, the appointment.
Judah promises Tamar a goat while Mary is told she would get a scape goat, "For he will save his people from their sin."
Both Tamar and Mary want an assurance of the promise they have received.
Tamar receives a rod while Mary is told that the power of God will over shadow her. And the cross (the discipline of God on her son), overshadowed her just as it did for Christ.
Tamar was given a signet ring, while Mary was told he would be called the son of the Most High.
And Tamar was given bracelets indicating that she was not unclean, and in fact Judah was told, "there was no prostitute here." While Mary was told that she carried a Holy thing.
When it was discovered they were pregnant, Tamar was threatened with death and Mary with divorce.
Then they were both honored when it was discovered who the father was.
Tamar bore twins and Mary bore the God-man.
The names of the twins mean "breaking forth" "rising sun" and Jesus was called the dayspring.
There are many more details, but these should be sufficient to see that the story shows how God fulfilled the Leverate law and that the Tamar story is a shadow of the birth of Christ.
I am told there is no record that this has been seen in 2000 years, some say I invented it. I did not. Some say it is dangerous. Reading the Bible and seeing Jesus is not dangerous.
Though I received the gift to be able to see these, it is not revelation. It is a gift similar to playing the violin. I am grateful for the gift since I have seen God in unimaginable ways. But I am also able to teach others to see them and am anxious for others to see Him in his word.
While much of the church has abandoned the Old Testament as being irrelevant, God has renewed His testimony that it all speaks of HIs Son.
Am I welcome to share here?
