How does the Menorah represent the Messiah?

Previous article

Take one evening.

Just one.

Turn off all lights.

Light up seven candles.  "Exo_25:37  And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it."

There is ENOUGH LIGHT in a dark room so that each person in a room can see each other's eyes, ears, nose, hands and so forth.  Each person would have the capability of recognition with seven lights burning.

Now look at a key board (piano keys).

There are 7 tones in a scale.  middleC-D-E-F-G-A-B.

How many days are there in a week?

7

Now, did you know that every so many weeks a "full moon" returns to the SAME day of the week.  So there is a lunar cycle pattern in phases that returns back to 7.

Of course, I could go further to other patterns of 7 in nature.  The lord is ONE and he was in the beginning and is forever!  The conditions of nature do NOT change with time or with manipulations of men.

The word Yeshua as written in Hebrew..... has SEVEN flames.  This is where a person could literally stop and the story would be over, but in reality there is more.

Remember how I said at the beginning of this article to turn off all the lights and only light "seven candles"?

Think about the "seventh day" of rest and how each time one needs rest, they simply TURN ON....the flames.....of light and REST in him!  TRUST in his presence.

Ok.....so the Menorah.....is representing a "retreat" away from "this world"....and to TRUST that HIS LIGHT is BRIGHT ENOUGH to keep our hearts alive with the TRUTH.


Yes there are counterfeit "messiah's".....false lights....that DO NOT lead us to "the word" and lead us to "the world"....LOVE isn't there...just folly.
