Eph 5:9 Walking In the Fruit of His Light

     

                                           Eph 5:2 ASV - and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell.   I am reminded of the fathers great plan for salvation to all that believe ,  in the old testament law there was a sacrifice to be given for a mans sins to be forgiven . So the lord God in his great mercy and power to save man gave us a sacrifice once for all times in his son Jesus Christ . There is only one sacrifice for sins in the new testament a blood sacrifice that atones for our sins once and for all .    Even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell.

Exo 12:5 ASV - Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old: ye shall take it from the sheep, or from the goats:
Exo 12:6 ASV - and ye shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month; and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at even.
Exo 12:7 ASV - And they shall take of the blood, and put it on the two side-posts and on the lintel, upon the houses wherein they shall eat it.
Exo 12:8 ASV - And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; with bitter herbs they shall eat it.
Exo 12:9 ASV - Eat not of it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roast with fire; its head with its legs and with the inwards thereof.
Exo 12:10 ASV - And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; but that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.
Exo 12:12 ASV - For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and will smite all the first-born in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am Jehovah.
Exo 12:13 ASV - And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

Exo 12:21 ASV - Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out, and take you lambs according to your families, and kill the passover.
Exo 12:22 ASV - And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side-posts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.  I believe this hyssop was to proclaim to every man the preciousness of the passover Lamb Jesus.  This hyssop was a plant in that day use for medicinal purposes an herb for its fragrance it was very aromatic when crushed just as a mint plant today .

 Isa 53:10 ASV - Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.   The children in Egypt were living in darkness and under bondage .  And God sent Moses as a saviour to bring them out of darkness and into liberty .

The first thing God did as to their journey out of darkness ,  was to make a covenant with them . A blood covenant with the children to bring them out of their bondage .  This wonderful type and shadow is to you that believe ,  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through him  And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.

Psa 51:7 ASV - Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.  David was a prophet he had a relationship with his God , he was very much aware of his Psalms and their power to save .  Jesus mentions David in Luke 6:3-5 David ate the bread of the priest and gave it to his men ,  David had a true relationship with his father he knew what was at stake here as to holy bread . Why would he pray to his father to purify me with hyssop and I shall be clean . Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow ,  only the blood of the Lamb can wash us clean as to sin and darkness .  Rev 7:14 ASV - And I say unto him, My lord, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they that come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.  David saw his seed as to a son setting on his throne after he was gone .   Jer 33:14 ASV - Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
Jer 33:15 ASV - In those days, and at that time, will I cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
Jer 33:16 ASV - In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is the name whereby she shall be called: Jehovah our righteousness.  Please see the word She as to the called and unto what name shall she be called , and who is this name SHE referring to as the calling of  SHE  the church of the living God the bride of Christ .  The bride who is the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus .   The Hebrew meaning of this word    She is kä·rä'            to call, cry, utter a loud sound  to call unto, cry (for help), call (with name of God)to proclaim
 to read aloud, read (to oneself), read to summon, invite, call for, call and commission, appoint, call and endow  to call, name, give name to, call by
Jer 33:17 ASV - For thus saith Jehovah: David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;

Mat 16:18 ASV - And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.  The rock is the revelation of  Jesus Christ in you the hope of glory .   Col 1:27 ASV - to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
Heb 9:19 ASV - For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses unto all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,  The water being the washing water of the word the scarlet wool be the sanctification of the blood of the lamb and the hyssop being the sweet aroma of his sacrifice .   Eph 5:2 ASV - and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell.   God told Moses to take a bunch of hyssop and and dip it in the blood of the Lamb and to strike it on the lintel and the door post .  So by striking the door post and the lintel with the hyssop the whole area was filled with the aroma the fragrance of a sweet sacrifice unto  God of his son Jesus for the sins of the world
Exo 12:21 ASV - Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out, and take you lambs according to your families, and kill the passover.
Exo 12:22 ASV - And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side-posts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.
Exo 12:23 ASV - For Jehovah will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side-posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.    The door here is your heart your soul ,  opening, doorway, entrance .        Rev 3:20 ASV - Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.   Greek: thura  Door:     metaphorically, of Christ, Jhn 10:7, 9; of faith, by acceptance of the Gospel, Act 14:27; of "openings" for preaching and teaching the Word of God, 1Cr 16:9; 2Cr 2:12; Col 4:3; Rev 3:8; of "entrance" into the Kingdom of God, Mat 25:10; Luk 13:24, 25; of Christ's "entrance" into a repentant believer's heart, Rev 3:20; of the nearness of Christ's second advent, Mat 24:33; Mar 13:29; cp. Jam 5:9; of "access" to behold visions relative to the purposes of God, Rev 4:1.                     I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.   The word Sup Greek: deipneo  Sup:   "to sup" (said of taking the chief meal of the day), occurs in Luk 17:8; 22:20 (in the best texts), lit., "(the) supping;" so 1Cr 11:25; metaphorically in Rev 3:20, of spiritual communion between Christ and the faithful believer.
