Everyone is welcome !

“Everyone is welcome!”, everyone is welcome to meet with Jesus.

In the Old Testament, the Holy of Holies (the inner room) was covered by a veil, like a curtain, and no one was allowed to enter except the High Priest, once a year, to offer the blood of sacrifice and incense.

When Jesus died for our redemption, the curtain, woven from blue, purple, crimson, and white thread, and embroidered with cherubim (cf. 2 Chronicles 3:14), between the sanctuary and the inner sanctuary was torn in two from top to bottom. (cf. Mark 15:37-38) Christ came as a high priest, He entered the Most Holy Place once and for all by his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption. (cf. Hebrews 9:12)

God has torn the temple curtain out of sacrificial love so everyone can meet with Him! Jesus died to redeem our sins, the temple curtain was torn, and He was raised from the dead on the third day. Easter marks the resurrection of Jesus, as the victor.

"So, friends, we can now—without hesitation—walk right up to God, into ‘the Holy Place.’ Jesus has cleared the way by the blood of his sacrifice, acting as our priest before God. The ‘curtain’ into God’s presence is His body." (Hebrews 10:19-21 MSG)

The countless descendants like stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore

Indeed, Abraham’s descendants scattered worldwide, especially after the diaspora of the Northern Kingdom of Israel in 722 BC when the Neo-Assyrian Empire conquered it. They were as numerous as the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore scattering all over the continents. Even with modern DNA technology, it is very challenging to trace the numerous assimilated descendants of the ten tribes across the globe. “15 The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time 16 and said, “I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore . Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, 18 and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me.” (Genesis 22:17-18)
