”God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;” | Hebrews 1: 1-3

How much religion, tradition, and ceremony can a man know and observe and yet not know God?

Well, the Jews observed thousands of Passovers yet never saw Christ, our passover.

They slew thousands of lambs yet never saw Christ, the Lamb of God.

They kept thousands of sabbaths yet never knew the rest of Christ, our Sabbath.

They ordained thousands of priests yet never saw Christ, the Great High Priest.

They actually carried the mercy-seat on their shoulders yet never came to Christ, our Mercy-Seat.

They ate the manna and drank from that Rock, yet never tasted the Bread and Water of Life – Christ Jesus.

Oh, Lord, open my eyes to see Him who is all and in all!
