The Tabernacle Of Moses- Part 3- The Number 4

It's said the Altar shall be four square. The number four points us to the fact this message of atonement or this message of salvation thru the shed blood of Jesus Christ is a world wide message. The four gospels are to be preached to the four corners of the Earth(Mark 16:15). The four square church was founded on these Four Truths: Jesus died for our sins, He was raised for our justification, He ascended to the right hand of God the Father, and He is coming back again to receive unto Himself a bride without spot, wrinkle or any such thing. There were four horns on the Brazen Altar. Horns speak of salvation, strength, and power. It also speaks of an emblem of excessive strength and stately grace. The horns on the Altar were a functional adornment that was used to tie the sacrificial animals to. Jesus Christ came as our new testament once and for all sacrifice. A willing sacrifice that was only bound by a Love to do His Father's will. No one took His life, but He laid it down on Calvary's Altar.

The Tabernacle of Moses-Part 2-The Number 3

Lets look at the number 3 in connection with the Brazen Alter. The Alter was three cubits high- the number of the Godhead. In connection with this Alter which was instrumental in providing the Blood of the Atonement(or the reconciliation of God and Man through the death of Jesus Christ on Calvary), it points out to us that the Godhead was involved in the three days and the three nights of the atonement. Calvary, or the atonement, or our redemption was the will of the Father, executed by the Son, who was empowered by the Spirit.
