With the Father's Anointing of Jesus, the time had come once again that one would not have to be a part of the physical Nation of Israel to receive the God of Israel's Salvation. The Old Covenant to one Nation with a physical Temple and a human Priesthood had coming to an end. Under the first Covenant, all people had to join themselves to the physical Nation of Israel and its sacrificial system to be saved. Now all people who Joined themselves to the New Covenant Kingdom of Jesus Christ through their Faith being based only on His teachings and their obedience to do His Father's will as He had done, became part of His Kingdom in Heaven.

Under the Old Covenant, all things in physical Israel were only copies of the true Spiritual Temple with the Ark of the Covenant in it in Heaven.

Under the New Covenant Kingdom of Jesus Christ, the man Jesus and all His Saints that accept His as their Lord and Master become the true Temple from Heaven not made with the hands of man.

(1 Cor 3:16) "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?"  (2 Cor 6:16)  "for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

People from all Nations can now join themselves to the Christ of Israel and still live in the Nations that they were born in. Under the Old, they had to conform to the image of the Law Covenant that lead them to Christ. Under the New Covenant we are to conform our lives to the IMAGE of the Son of God's life who obeyed His Father's Commandments and only did the will of His Father in Heaven. 

The life of Jesus Christ is our perfect example of what our lives of obedience are to be in the Kingdom of Christ.  Jesus Christ and His Saints are the New Covenant Temples with the Ark in it where the Life of Christ lives.  Thus they are a Commonwealth of people called Israel and a true copy of the Temple in Heaven with the ARC of the Covenant in it.

(Rom 8:28-29) "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. {29} For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed TO THE IMAGE OF HIS SON, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren."

A New Covenant Kingdom with its Headquarters in Heaven where everyone in Christ's Kingdom had been conformed or is being conformed to the image of the Son of God who had come down from heaven. No corrupt man could enter into the Spiritual Temple in Heaven and corrupt it with their Idols as they had the physical Temple in Jerusalem. Neither can they remove the ARK of the Covenant with the Ten Commandment in it from the Heavenly Temple.

The Spiritual Temple in Heaven still has the Ark with the Ten Commandment Covenant in it that the one here on earth had only been patterned after.

The Arc of the Covenant is still in the Temple in Heaven at the end of the age of this physical earth. It's there on the Judgement Day of the world at the end of time.

Rev 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his COVENANT: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail."

(Heb 9:11-12) "But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and MORE PERFECT TABERNACLE , not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; {12} Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us."

If we are going to be conformed to the IMAGE of the Heavenly Temple which is Christ in you, we as the Temple of the Christ of God on here on earth must also have the Ark of the Covenant in us, with the Ten Commandments still in it. If not, we are not a true copy of the Temple in Heaven that contains the Arc of the Covenant.

(1 Cor 3:16-17) "Know ye not that YE ARE THE TEMPLE of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? {17} If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are."

This was and is still the purpose of the New Covenant Kingdom of God, to write the Ten Commandment of God in our hearts and minds so that we become a carbon copy of  Temple in heaven with the ARC of the Covenant in it.

Only when the Commandments are written in our hearts and minds, do we become His human TEMPLES here on earth built without human hands.

(Rom 8:2-4) "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. {3} For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: {4} That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."

If we love the Father of our New Birth from the Heavenly Kingdom as Jesus loved His Father in heaven, we to will do His will and keep His Holy Commandments as Jesus did, as the Son of God.  If we do not keep the Father's Commandments as His will was and still is for us to do, He is not our Father and we are not yet in the image of Jesus Christ. We have not returned to the righteousness Adam had before he disobeyed the voice of God not to eat of the trees of the knowledge of good and evil. To continue eating of the tree of evil is still death to the eater even thou you may claim to be a follower of the Christ.

(Heb 8:9-11) "Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my (Law) covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. {10} For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, (by Christ comes in the Person of Jesus Christ) saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: {11} And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest."

The Nation of Israel was mostly a  Nation of carnal people, earthly.  The second Kingdom is the Commonwealth of Israel and it is a Nation of Spiritual people who's name are written in Heaven. (Eph 2: 12-19)

(Heb 10:1) "For the law having a SHADOW of GOOD THINGS  to come, and not the very IMAGE of the things,"  (Psa 19:7 KJV) The law of the LORD IS PERFECT, CONVERTING THE SOUL: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple."

Jesus Christ was the very Image of the LAW that converts the Soul. If not He could not have been our savior. He would have been a sinner like the rest of mankind. 

(1 John 3:4) "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law."

(1 John 3:5-7) "And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; AND IN HIM IS NO SIN. {6} Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not (does not practice sin) : whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. {7} Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness IS RIGHTEOUS, EVEN AS HE IS RIGHTEOUS."  

(Col 1:15) "Who is the IMAGE OF THE INVISIBLE GOD, firstborn of every creature:"

(John 1:10-12) "He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. {11} He came unto his own, and his own received him not. {12} But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, (Conformed into His IMAGE) even to them that believe on his name:"

(1 Cor 15:49) "And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly." (If we follow the teachings of Jesus Christ only)

We do not bear the image of the heavenly unless the ARC of the Covenant is in our hearts, our TEMPLES. It is the keeping of the Laws in the ARC of the covenant that makes us His TEMPLE.  When the Laws in the Arc are written in our hearts and in our minds we are in Christ. Written there, they well keep us free from committing sins against God. The Laws in the Covenant, are the Laws of the Spirit of life in Christ that the keeping of them give us His everlasting life. We are no longer under the laws of sin and death, but under His Grace. They are His Laws. They came out of the mouth of the Father. The Father gave them to mankind to lead us into living the same kind of life that He lives in the Spirit of Christ. The same laws of life that were in Jesus. Rom: 8:2.

(Eph 2:10-17) "For we are his workmanship, created in (the IMAGE OF) Christ Jesus UNTO GOOD WORKS,   which God hath before ordained that we should WALK IN THEM.  {11} Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; {12} That at that time ye were without (IMAGE) Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: {13} But now in (the IMAGE OF) Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. {14} For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; {15} Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain ONE NEW MAN, so making peace; {16} And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: {17} And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh."

If were not doing the GOOD WORKS that we were created to WALK IN, are we still "his workmanship"? Have we put on the Image of Jesus Christ? 

(Mat 5:16) "Let your light so shine before men, that they may SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Evil works are of the works of Satan. 

(Rom 11:4-5) "But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the IMAGE OF BAAL. {5} Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace." (There were still followers in the IMAGE of the Christ)

(2 Cor 4:4) "In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not,, should shine unto them. lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who IS THE IMAGE OF GOD."

(Col 3:10-11) "And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after THE IMAGE OF HIM THAT CREATED HIM {11} Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

(Luke 1:77) "To give KNOWLEDGE of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,

(Rom 1:28-29) "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; {29} Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,"

(Rom 3:20-22) "Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. {21} But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; {22} Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:"

(Rom 10:2) "For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge."

(2 Cor 4:6) "For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ."

(2 Cor 10:5) "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;"

(Eph 3:16-19) "That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; {17} That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, {18} May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; {19} And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God."

(Eph 4:11-15) "And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; {12} For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: {13} Till we all come in the unity of the faith (KNOWLEDGE) , and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: {14} That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; {15} But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:"

(Nicodemus) (John 3:10) Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

(1 Cor 15:46-49 KJV) "Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. {47} The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. {48} As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. {49} And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the IMAGE OF THE HEAVENLY."

(Rom 8:29) "For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be CONFORMED TO THE IMAGE OF HIS SON, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren."

(John 10:14-18) "I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. {15} As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. {16} And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. {17} Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. {18} No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father."

(Mat 6:32-34) "For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. {33} But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. {34} Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof."
