Ordinances

Posted October 8th, 2010 in Bible Studies by admin

[This subject no doubt needs to be undertaken by men filled with wisdom, scholarly learning, the Spirit of God and the love of the truth. I have decided to begin to undertake this subject armed only with the power of the last two.]

First Usages Of The Word “ordinance” (They appear to be referring to perpetual keeping by Israel in a fleshly sense.)

(1) Exodus 12:12-14 “For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the Lord. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the Lord throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.” Continue Reading »
