THE ALMIGHTY'S SEAL
At its basic level a seal is a legal device used to stamp a name, coat of
arms or logo on some impressionable material like wax, clay or paper. On the
spiritual level Yahweh seals the impressionable minds of His people with His
Law, His Name and His Character. In the covenant made at Sinai the Almighty
wrote His law on tablets of stone. But the majority in Israel were unwilling to
obey it. In fact they despised the holy commandments and broke them with
impunity. In the new covenant, which is also made with the people of Israel, the
Almighty plans to write His law in His true followers' minds and
hearts. It will become part of our nature. Obedience will then be as
instinctive as breathing.
THE SEALING WORK
The sealing work is detailed in Revelation chapter 7. It will not take place
till the events of Rev. 6:12-17 (the 6th Seal) have occurred. Only then will the
144,000 Israelites be sealed. Who are these people? Where are they sealed? Who
seals them? With what are they sealed?
The answer is:
The 144,000 are true Israelites who are
sealed, in their foreheads (minds)by the Holy Spirit, with God's Law. In some
mysterious way the Holy Spirit is going to impress Yahweh's law on every true
believer's mind; overwrite with perfect obedience our natural tendency to sin.
We will then instinctively obey the divine commandments and will obey them to
perfection. By doing so we will reflect Yahweh's name, His character and His
holiness in our every thought, word and deed. We will be perfectly holy people -
through and through! That's what knowing the Almighty's Name means. And how do
we know that we are to be sealed with obedience?
The answer is: the Bible tells us:
| Isa.8:16 |
Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.
|
| Heb.8:7 |
For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place
have been sought for the second. 8: For finding fault with them, he saith,
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: 9: Not according
to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them
by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued
not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. 10: For this is
the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,
saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in
their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a
people: 11: And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man
his brother, saying, : for all shall know me, from the least to the
greatest. |
| Heb.10:15 |
Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had
said before, 16:This is the covenant that I will make with them after
those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in
their minds will I write them; 17: And their sins and iniquities will I
remember no more. |
THE ALMIGHTY'S SIGN (SIGNATURE)
At its basic level a signature is a sign or inscription of a
person's name. If you were asked to sign a cheque or document, you
would inscribe your name on it. Your sign is your signature, your name. On the
spiritual level the God of Israel refers to His Sabbath days as His Sign or
signature; and like His law He inscribes His signature on the obedient
believer's mind.
| Exo.31:12 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 13: Speak thou also unto the
children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a
sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I
am the LORD that doth sanctify you…16: Wherefore the children of Israel
shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations,
for a perpetual covenant. 17: It is a sign between me and the children of
Israel for ever:
|
| Eze.20:12 |
Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and
them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them.
20: And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you,
that ye may know that I am the LORD your God. |
Yahweh's Sabbaths (note the word Sabbaths is in the plural, meaning the
weekly and annual Sabbaths) constitute His signature. They are the SIGN
of the everlasting covenant. Throughout eternity they will be remembered (kept
in mind) and celebrated as the memorials of salvation; the days on which Yahweh
accomplished His mightiest deeds in the redemption of mankind. Yahweh's Sabbath
days will be kept throughout eternity because they are the sacred seeds of His
planting, eternal memorials of His mightiest deeds in the Plan of Salvation.
Unlike pagan traditions, they will never be uprooted or forgotten.
