THE SECRET OF YOMA
Introduction
Two major barriers originally were said to keep man away from God, holy from unholy.
One of the barriers was formed by two massive "doors of hekhad", the holy place.
These doors separated the holy place
The second or other one was called the parochet known as the colossal veil which seprerated the holy place from the holy of holies and only the high priest was allowed to enter and on the day of atonement.
According to the Bible the parochet was torn from top to bottom signifying that the barrier between God and man.
But that remains one i.e the golden doors of hekhal.
The question: should the barrier not have been removed? And that shouldn't there have been another second witness to the fact that the barriers had been broken down l.
There was an opposing witness. The golden doors of hekhal began to open themselves they began to do this about the same time Christ died as the final atonement to remove the barrier between us and God.
That at the time of his death that which seprerated us from God has been removed.
MY TAKE
the mission of today was that we use the power to which Christ has given us by virtue of his death to open any door or barrier in our path.
Personally I'm someone who knows barriers all too well, but today we're being called to something greater than ourselves something beyond our scope. That we have power by virtue of Christ to change things but that most importantly we have free access to God by virtue of it as well. That's just amazing honestly that we have access to God's inner circle just by accepting what Christ did for us (Hebrews 10: 19-20).
So what does that entail for me?
I've never really felt like I belonged anywhere in particular before until really I became a Christian and why this helps us because I'm finally able to understand that if anyone gets me God's gets me, because he too went through the same thing. Sure people liked him but he wasn never truly accepted and when he was about to die for us he was abandoned by his friends
God wants a relationship with us and most times we don't realise that the boundaries between he and us are laid by us. How? In our doubts, lack of faith but most importantly in our insensitivity to the love around us. So today we are urged to go into his presence and just stay receive and be blessed
