SECRETS OF THE RED HEIFER - Part 2
SEPTEMBER 5, 2011
Today is Elul 6, the shofar is sounding and calling us to return to God within.
Ancient tradition tells us, the first Red Heifer was sacrificed in the month Elul. We discovered in the Book of Numbers chapter 19, a highly mystical ritual was introduced to cleanse those that had been contaminated with death. Thousands were dying daily, all of the adults that left Egypt eventually died in the Wilderness. The wages for sin (death) had created a greater problem than what is called sin.
KING SOLOMON, THE WISEST MAN KNEW ALL MYSTERIES EXCEPT THE MYSTERY OF THE RED HEIFER
King Solomon was known worldwide for his wisdom. After his coronation as King over Israel, God asked him what did he want. Solomon did not ask for the life of his adversaries, wealth or material things. He asked for wisdom and discernment how to lead his people. God granted that and his wisdom made him the wealthiest man ever.
"He was wiser than anyone else, including Ethan the Ezrahite and the sons of Mahol--Heman, Calcol, and Darda. His fame spread throughout all the surrounding nations. He composed some 3,000 proverbs and wrote 1,005 songs. He could speak with authority about all kinds of plants, from the great cedar of Lebanon to the tiny hyssop that grows from cracks in a wall. He could also speak about animals, birds, small creatures, and fish. And kings from every nation sent their ambassadors to listen to the wisdom of Solomon." 1 Kings 4:31-34
Toward the end of Solomon's glorious life, he was puzzled; because there was yet one elusive spiritual mystery he had not been able to solve. It was the secret of the Red Cow. This mystical ritual remained out of the reach of the wisest man. Being the greatest metaphysician, spiritualist, and one that captured and commanded demons; he could not fathom how this one mystery could evade him. Here is the riddle: How could the ashes from the red heifer defile what is pure and purify that which is defile?
"All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me." Ecc. 7:23
READ NUMBERS 19:1-10
1 The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron: 2 This is the statute for the ritual which the LORD has commanded. Tell the Israelites to bring you a red heifer without defect and free from every blemish and on which no yoke has ever been laid. 3 You will give it to Eleazar the priest, and it will be led outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence. 4 Eleazar the priest will take some of its blood on his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the tent of meeting. 5 Then the heifer will be burned in his sight; it will be burned with its hide and flesh, its blood and dung; 6 and the priest will take cedar wood, hyssop and scarlet yarn and throw them into the fire in which the heifer is being burned. 7 The priest shall then wash his garments and bathe his body in water, afterward he may enter the camp. The priest remains unclean until the evening. 8 Likewise, the one who burned the heifer shall wash his garments in water, bathe his body in water, and be unclean until evening. 9 Then somebody who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer and deposit them in a clean place outside the camp. There they are to be kept to prepare purification water for the Israelite community. This is a purification offering. 10 The one who has gathered up the ashes of the heifer shall also wash his garments and be unclean until evening. This is a permanent statute, both for the Israelites and for the alien residing among them."
THE SECRET REVEALED
Moses was the only one of the Old Covenant given to know the secret of the Red Heifer. "Speak to the Children of Israel and have them bring you a red heifer... " The very first red heifer was given into Moses' custody before it was ritually slaughtered. There was a very spiritual event that took place, an impartation of some sort. It is yet believed today that all the red heifers were connected to Moses even after his death because of the energetic transfer to the first. Some of the ashes from the first Red Heifer were preserved. Through the 1500 years after Moses, when there was a need for another red heifer, the priest would mix in some of the ashes of the first with the present one. The power or energy from the first ashes was able to activate (anoint) the new ashes. The mystical ashes were hidden in a place where only a few priests knew where they were. It is believed that a jar, the original jar of Moses time is now in the custody of Orthodox Jews in Israel under heavy guard. Ancient Copper Tablets discovered in 1952 supposedly revealed the whereabouts of the hidden ashes of the mysterious 1st Red Heifer. Due to the extreme importance of this, it is a secret closely held by the Israeli authorities.
The great paradox of the ashes that only Moses understood but kept King Solomon awake many nights is no more a secret. "The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers—it is to him you shall listen." Deuteronomy 18:15, Acts 3:22 Solomon with all his great wisdom about everything did not have a clear revelation about the most important, the power of Messiah's blood.
The ancient people of Israel did not fully understand this, until this day many of their ancestors are blinded. The completely red heifer was a type of Jesus the Christ, the Messiah that was to come. The is the secret or mystery of the Prophet liken unto Moses. The red heifer ashes had the symbolic power to purify anyone that had been contaminated by death. All of humanity has been contaminated.
How could the ashes from the Red Heifer defile what is pure and purify that which is defile? "He that knew no sin (defilement) became sin (defiled) that we might be made righteous (pure)." Jesus became the Red Heifer to purify all of humanity from contamination of death. What is death? Is it not carnal mindedness? It is the thought process that prevails in humans making them believe that they are or can be separated from what is called God. This separation is called Death. For this reason the ashes of the red heifer had to be mixed with running water from a stream, river or rain water. Once the ashes were mixed with the pure water it was transformed into the "waters of separation". This was to heal the breach in the consciousness of humanity, bringing them again into a state of oneness. This was also a prophetic declaration, "You are Purified, Pure by the washing of the water of the Word." Jesus is the pure living waters.
"And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for sin." Numbers 19:9
WHY DID HE MANIFEST AS A FEMALE BOVINE
First of all you must realize that a completely Red Cow is extremely rare. This ritual animal could not have more that (2)non-red hairs and the (2) or less non-red hairs must have red roots. Did you know that there has not been another completely Red Heifer born since Jesus' death, burial and resurrection 2000 years ago? Jewish history say there has not been one since prior 70 AD. Why?! Because there was no need for another.
"For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctified to the purifying of the flesh: How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?" Hebrews 9:13-14
World top geneticists have been working hard for decades trying to create another Red Heifer. Thus far, each one has been disqualified due to blemishes, white or black hairs growing before the heifer reaches 3 years old.
Why did Christ manifest as the female bovine in type? The perceived problem in humanity is in the feminine aspect of its make up. The soul is the feminine. Soul is mind, will, emotion, intellect and imagination. The separation or duality exist in the mind. This was also portrayed in the story of Adam and Eve. Was it not Eve (mind, emotion, imagination) that became separated through deception or the illusion? Therefore, it would take the Divine Feminine energy to reconcile the soul and bring it back from death to the path of life.
JESUS THE RED HEIFER
Just a few parallels:
The Red Cow is unique. - There is none like Him (immaculate conception etc).
The Red Cow was sacrificed - Jesus was the ultimate Sacrifice of God
It was killed and burned outside the camp - Jesus was crucified outside the city
The Heifers blood was sprinkled - Jesus Blood was shed for us
The ashes purified the people - Jesus cleansed us from sin consciousness
She was complete red - Jesus was covered in his own blood head to toe
"Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow." The red represents sin (missing the mark). The heifer and Jesus had to be red or covered in red (blood) to symbolize taking on the sins of the world. The red also symbolized the life of the flesh which is in the blood, out of death life comes forth.
The sins of the world have been taken away through Christ, the Red Heifer sacrifice. You are free! (More secrets of the Red Heifer tomorrow. Allow Psalms 27 to be your meditation).
