      Do not feel like that, friend! Our savior felt that for us. There's no longer distance between our savior and us. Trust in our Beloved's merciful love!
      About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli,lemasabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”). (Matthew 27:46)

      The wall of hostility has been broken down brother. There is no person on earth that cant approach the holy of holiness if they have living faith. If you feel abandoned then you believe in him. But you are wrong about being abandoned, the word of God testifies against your statement brother.

    Thank you Pastor John for the message out of Leviticus. I was once very impatient with this profound book until about a year ago .The message you just shared with us articulated it’s true meaning ;God in his holiness; living in the midst of an unholy people and our Lord’s unfathomable condescension of mercy to make a way through Jesus . As RC Sproul pointed out no other attribute of God is revealed with ultimate superlative degree with the cry, ‘HOLY, HOLY, HOLY’.
    My prayer is believers prayerful approach this amazing book with hungry hearts to be profoundly impacted by the impossibility of ever approaching a holy God with the justifying advocate by his side!

    Leviticus 21:16-24
    16 The Lord said to Moses, 17 “Say to Aaron: ‘For the generations to come none of your descendants who has a defect may come near to offer the food of his God. 18 No man who has any defect may come near: no man who is blind or lame, disfigured or deformed; 19 no man with a crippled foot or hand, 20 or who is a hunchback or a dwarf, or who has any eye defect, or who has festering or running sores or damaged testicles. 21 No descendant of Aaron the priest who has any defect is to come near to present the food offerings to the Lord. He has a defect; he must not come near to offer the food of his God. 22 He may eat the most holy food of his God, as well as the holy food; 23 yet because of his defect, he must not go near the curtain or approach the altar, and so desecrate my sanctuary. I am the Lord, who makes them holy.’”
    24 So Moses told this to Aaron and his sons and to all the Israelites.

      I think;
      He isn’t allowed to “approach” God. It’s not like Satan enters the exact realm that God resides. Though evil, he has a role to play in the courts of God, he is the accuser. You can’t have judgement without an accuser. So he is allowed to the courts of God to make accusations. But he doesn’t “approach” God in the sense of fellowshipping or worshipping, which are the avenues to approach God.
      Just like how we know God is everywhere, meaning his presence can also be on earth, but there is evil on earth so why isn’t everything destroyed since they can’t approach him?
      They aren’t approaching him. He is here but not all things approach him.

    Thank you Pastor John for this explanation which is in line with what I also found out. I was also reading this a few days ago and was greatly helped by Andrew Bonar’s commentary (Banner of Truth) on this. Essentially the perfection of Christ our sacrifice and high priest is typified by the Levitical priests during the sacrifice or offering. The mercy of God is also mentioned in that the priests excluded still share in the allocation of food in the temple. Greatly encouraged by this and it takes the Holy Spirit to give such insights to understand his word.

      Are you basing your opinion of those who appear perfect off of knowledge and observation?
      What i mean by that is, that you werent influnced by the past 30 years of 100s of movies and shows that demonized perfection and caused you to subconciously look for errors in people who "appear" perfect and thus assumed that were doing something vile and wrong.
      But you actually saw somebody who appeared perfect but they cheated on their spouse or something thats ACUTALLY wrong?
      2. What is your definition of perfect?
      3. How is this an inconsistency?

      Since I've lived from England to Hawaii - including NY, Chicago and Southern California, British Columbia and the province of Quebec, and since I've traveled to nearly every state - and also to Mexico multiple times and to Florida multiple times - including Key West - since I've traveled to several countries in the Caribbean - and since I've known many people from various countries from Asia - including India and Taiwan, Thailand, the Philippines and so on, since I've also known many people from the Middle East, including Egypt and Turkey, Palestine, Persia, Lebanon, etc., and since I've personally known many people from Europe, Africa, Latin America, Australia, Polynesia and Micronesia, and since I speak in several languages, I wouldn't characterize myself as someone whose life experiences are limited by movies - compared to most Americans and most of the British, most Canadians, most Latin Americans and so on, I've experienced a diversity of people and a diversity of cultures.
      As a Doctoral Scholar who's been doing research for over 50 years, and since I do my research in dozens of languages from all across this Earth, since I've served as an Expert Witness to the Court Judges and tested off the WAIS-R, since I have no interest in opinions or theories but instead rely on evidence to navigate my way through this realm of deception and since the preacher in this video has repeatedly exposed himself as a pompous self-aggrandizing impostor - particularly when he condemned sex outside of marriage - even though Jesus didn't condemn the woman at the well - and then saved the life of the woman who was about to be stoned to death for having sex outside of marriage ...
      Apparently, the "preacher" wants us to know the teachings of Jesus were irrelevant to him - as if his condemnation of others was the superior righteous judgment ... so I don't hesitate to expose his evil - he has "his reward" - he should expect no other reward.
      Throughout my life, I have noticed a small percentage of females appear to be perfect - with a naturally-beautiful face and teeth and hair and a beautiful body, since we tend to impose and project onto them spiritual qualities and noble virtues that they rarely have - as they are suffering from abuse and torture, torment, terror and trauma, confusion and sorrow - because of being surrounded by liars and thieves, rapists and murderers and warmongering evil, and other deceitful psychopaths posing as humans...
      Since these females can be dishonest and deceptive - and often delusional - making claims that have no basis in reality, this serves as an example of the appearance of perfection against the dark and dreary backdrop of those with physical deformities who may have spiritual qualities and the noble virtues of truthful, peaceful, helpful kindness that is not found in those who appear perfect.
      As an example, I went to high school with about 100 students in my class - most of whom I had known since middle school - about half of them were females - of those 50 females, about five to ten of them appeared "perfect" and without "blemish" ... about 10 to 20% of the females.
      Worldwide, approx 10% of teen females might appear perfect.
      As a woman who has known thousands of females across thousands and thousands and thousands of miles, that would be my estimate: approx 10 to 20% of teen females appear "perfect" ...
      That number rapidly drops as the women get into their 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's.
      Since the topic of this video is about the "perfection" of Hebrew males in the upper-class of the Tribe of Levi, I might estimate about 5 to 10% of them appeared to be "perfect". That's a rough estimate.
      To understand why the Tribe of Levi was appointed as the elite priest class above the other tribes of Israel, you can read Exodus 32
      My definition of perfect includes those who live a life of truthful, peaceful, helpful kindness - from their heart and soul and mind - because this is what God and Jesus ask us to do.
      To be truthful includes acknowledging the supremacy of God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit - and to see the demonic deception that's all around us - including the lies we were taught about democracy and freedom, justice and equality as the 1% siphons 99% of the world wealth into their control ...
      The satanic insanity includes their lies about politics, economics, religion, healthcare and nutrition, and their lies about history and chemistry, geology, volcanology, glaciology, botany, astronomy and so on - which includes their timeline lies related to our Earth's origins, the timeline lies for our human history, the timeline lies for the fallen angels, the timeline lies for the War in Heaven, the timeline lies for the Great Flood of Genesis, their timeline lies for the Titan Wars, their timeline lies for Earth's broken and subducted tectonic plates, their timeline lies for our continents, oceans and ocean trenches, the archipelago islands, peninsulas, mountains, caves, cataclysms and ice sheets ...
      Since the true timeline for all of that is documented - by our ancestors - in historic records, including the true timeline for the eruptions of Santorini, Vesuvius, Yellowstone and dozens of other supervolcanoes - that erupted all in the same night as thousands of smaller volcanoes erupted across five continents - since the true timeline for the formation of the Himalayas, the Andes, the Rockies, the Aleutians, the Alps, etc., is also documented - by our ancestors - since the true timeline for the formation of the Grand Canyon is also documented by our ancestors - in historic records - those that lie about the history of our Earth and the history of humankind - and the history of the stars in the heavens - are broadcasting their ancestral bloodline - they have their reward.
