<p> Numbers 19:2 (c) By this type we understand the spotless character of our Lord [[Jesus | <p> Numbers 19:2 (c) By this type we understand the spotless character of our Lord [[Jesus Christ]] on whom there was no sin nor fault, and in Him no evil of any kind. (See also Numbers 28:3; Numbers 29:17; 1 Peter 1:19). </p> <p> Deuteronomy 32:5 (b) The Lord brands His people as the [[Shepherd]] brands the sheep. In this case those mentioned do not bear the mark of GOD's ownership. Probably the mark was that of a godly life, holy ambitions, and obedience to the Word of GOD. (See also Revelation 3:12). </p> <p> Song of [[Solomon]] 4:7 (c) This may be taken as a statement by the Lord concerning His church, or His bride, for He sees no fault nor sin in His people who are washed in the [[Blood]] of the Lamb. Or, it may be taken as the Word of the bride concerning the Bridegroom, for certainly He is absolutely perfect, beautiful, sinless and stainless. Both things are true. </p> <p> Ephesians 5:27 (b) Here we see a beautiful type of the perfection of GOD's church, each member of which has been cleansed in the Blood of the Saviour, made pure and white in GOD's sight. </p> <p> 1 Timothy 6:14 (c) Probably the type in this case represents a perfect obedience, in which there is no hypocrisy, and no compulsion. It is an obedience based on the love of GOD, and from a grateful heart. </p> <p> Hebrews 9:14 (a) By this figure we understand that the Lord [[Jesus]] offered Himself to GOD, with no sin connected with His offering, no pride, no selfishness, no ulterior motives, no evil of any kind. He was a perfect offering in every sense of the word, and therefore was acceptable to GOD. </p> <p> 2 Peter 3:14 (a) It is the will of GOD that the [[Christian]] should live a clean, true, pure upright life, with no blemishes that would disfigure his life and cause the people to point to him with scorn. The Christian is to be a good example of a blameless believer. </p> <p> Judges 1:12 (b) The presence of an ungodly man among the people of GOD blots and blurs, hinders and harms the fellowship of GOD's saints. </p> <p> Judges 1:23 (b) This probably refers to any so-called righteousness or plan of salvation, which is contaminated by the works of the flesh, or by depending upon merit in the sight of GOD. </p> | ||
