Ps Seth Asare Ofei Badu Remembering His Death, Expecting His Second Coming Pt. 1: Three Bear Testimony 1 John 5:8 – 10, Luke 12:35 – 48 INTRODUCTION: Water, Blood, Spirit as Witnesses on Earth John, the evangelist writes in his first letter that three things bear testimony to the identity of Jesus on earth: the water, the blood and the Spirit. Curiously, he did not restrict the testimony function of the three witnesses to Christ. Indeed the New Testament clearly teaches that these three also bear testimony to the identity of the believer.

Seth A. Ofei Badu Main Readings: Leviticus 6:8 – 13, Romans 12: 1 - 8 Laws in the Old Covenant should be treated as principles in the New Testament because they proceed from the same God. In the Old Testament, the people of Israel were required to follow the law unquestionably. Those of us who are bought into the New Covenant through the sacrifice of Jesus ought to examine the dictates of the law to discover the mind of God behind them and excel the conduct of the Old Covenant people by applying the principles in His service. The burnt offering was a gift offering to God which was completely burnt with fire. It pre-dates the law, in that Abel, Noah and Abraham all successfully made such sacrifices to God. Through Moses God specified how He would like it to be done, and enshrined it in the law. Two key legal observances were: a.        The sacred fire must be stoked continually with fresh firewood b.       The ashes ...
