I was delighted to see that the High Priest would enter the Holiest without formal vestments, in the simplicity of clean but common clothing. It reminds me of a fascinating ritualistic element in the funeral of Queen Elizabeth. Before her body is lowered into the crypt the symbols of royalty are removed and placed on the altar. Returned to God. The commentator explained that the Queen thereby enters heaven without the trappings and titles of royalty, but as an ordinary Christian. Thank you for work.
The Kingdom truly has its strange moments. I have (many times) felt guilty that I can be so relaxed and just talk with the Father about things with no sense of awe. Also, that I have no sense of need for a temple. Truly felt guilty, then I chuckle.

That's the New Covenant where it's all written on my heart, and I am enabled by the Ruach HaKodesh.
The Father's ways are so wonderful. The New Covenant was part of the plan before Creation. Think on that for a bit...
Now, I'm stunned. Just a drug-crazed hippy Gentile, saved by grace, rescued, and made whole.
Coming back to this post after reading Ezekiel 9 and the man clothed in linen. A lot to meditate on…
Thank you for your work.

The Lord's ways are so wonderful.
Please do not be horrified.
