Four Busy Days
Have you ever wondered what went on between the time when the Man of Truth (Yeshua HaMashiach aka Jesus Christ) died and when he appeared to his Apostles after his resurrection?
When was the Man of Truth dead anyways?
The Man of Truth said that he would be in the heart of the Earth for three days and three nights (Matthew 12:40). The Man of Truth was dead before sunset on the day of preparation when the Passover lambs were slain for the high Sabbath of the first day of the Feast of Unleavened bread when the Passover meal was to be eaten (Mark 15:42-44). When Mary Magdalene arrived before sunrise on the first day of the week (Sunday) she found that the Man of Truth had already rose from the dead (John 20:1-2).
So the Man of Truth was dead all of three nights (Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday night) and all of three days (Thursday day, Friday day, Saturday day) as he had said. He actually died on Wednesday shortly before sunset and rose again on Sunday sometime after the three AM change of the Roman guards and before Mary Magdalene arrived which was before sunrise.
So why do people celebrate Good Friday if the Man of Truth died on Wednesday?
Good Friday was a pagan holiday that has nothing to do with the actual death of the Man of Truth. The lie that the Man of Truth died on a Friday was made to fit a pagan calendar that came from Babylonian sun god worship. This lie was easy to perpetrate on people that did not understand the meaning of the word "Sabbath". Sabbath means "Ceasing", not "seventh", and any day that the Father of Truth (YHVH aka God aka THE LORD) commands that people cease from their normal activity to carryout His activity is called the Sabbath regardless of which day of the week it occurs on. It was not the regular weekly Sabbath that started on Friday night when the Man of Truth had to be buried before it started but it was instead the high Sabbath (the First day of the Feast of Unleavened bread started on Wednesday night that year) that started on the evening after the Preparation day when the Passover lamb was killed.
This lie that the Man of Truth died on a Friday like all lies ultimately came from the Father of Lies (HaShatan aka Satan aka The Devil) (John 8:44). The Children of Truth (those who obey The Father of Truth because they love Him) should want nothing that belongs to the Father of Lies in their lives so they can be like the Man of Truth (John 14:30). The Father of Truth desires that the Children of Truth walk in the truth (3 John 1:4)
What happened to the body of the Man of Truth during these three days?
Notice that his body was in a grave near the surface of the Earth while he was in the heart of the Earth (Matthew 27:58-60). The women came to the tomb at the beginning of the fourth day after the death of the Man of Truth so they could perfume the body of the Man of Truth before decay set in (Luke 24:1). Decay does not set in until the fourth day after death in the dry climate around Jerusalem (John 11:38-39). The body of the Son of Man did not experience any decay because he was resurrected (Acts 2:31).
What did the Man of Truth do while he was in the heart of the Earth?
When Abraham was told to burn Isaac, who was a picture to the Man of Truth, after slaying him on a platform of wood (Genesis 22:8-10). In like manner the sin sacrifice, which was a picture of the Man of Truth, was to be burned with fire after it was slain (Exodus 29:16-18). The Lowest Hell is a place where the Father of Truth pours out the fire of His wrath upon those that under His curse (Deuteronomy 32:22). The Man of Truth was also burned in the Lowest Hell before he was delivered (Psalm 86:13). Hell is down from every point on the surface of the Earth because it is in the heart of the Earth (Ezekiel 31:17). The Father of Truth casts all into the Lowest Hell that are under His curse (Luke 12:5). The Lowest Hell is where the rich man suffered when he looked up to see Abraham (Luke 16:22-24). Shaul (Saul aka Paul) was willing to suffer in Hell under the curse of the Father of Truth in the place of Israel and it is not possible that Shaul loved Israel more than the Man of Truth loved the entire human race (Romans 9:2-4). The Man of Truth was under the curse of the Father of Truth in our place because he had been hung on a tree (Galatians 3:13). The Man of Truth went to the Lowest Hell before he ascended (Ephesians 4:9). This is how far the Man of Truth was willing to go because of his love for you.
The Man of Truth was not just a tourist in Hell - he was there on a mission. All that time the Man of Truth trusted that the Father of Truth would not leave him in Hell (Psalm 16:10). The Man of Truth came to Hell to end the captivity of the Children of Truth in the Upper Hell so that the Father of Truth might dwell among them (Psalm 68:18). While the Man of Truth was in the Lowest Hell he could see the righteous in the Upper Hell where the Children of Truth waited (Luke 16:25-26). This is the paradise where the repentant thief went to after he died (Luke 23:41-43). While the Man of Truth was in the Lowest Hell he preached to the spirits of the Angels of Lies that were destroyed before the flood of Noah (1 Peter 3:19-20). The Man of Truth then preached the Gospel to those that had died and were in the Upper Hell so that they could believe the Gospel (1 Peter 4:6).
Once the work of the Man of Truth in Hell was over, the Father of Truth called him home to finish the job of saving the human race. The Father of Truth released the Man of Truth from Hell when He raised him from the dead (Acts 2:24-27). When the Man of Truth left Hell he took those that had been held captive in the Upper Hell with him (Ephesians 4:8). The Man of Truth took the keys of death and Hell with him when he left Hell (Revelation 1:18).
When did the Man of Truth appear to the Apostles?
The Man of Truth did not show himself to his Apostles until the fourth day was ending (Sunday evening) (John 20:19).
What did the Man of Truth do between when he rose before sunrise of the fourth day (Sunday morning) and when he showed himself to his Apostles (Sunday evening)?
The Man of Truth waited for his Apostles to leave the tomb (John 20:10). Then the Man of Truth revealed that he had been resurrected to Mary Magdalene shortly after sunrise when the gardeners showed up (John 20:14-16). The Man of Truth would not let Mary touch him because he had to ascend to where his father was to finish the job of saving the human race (John 20:17). The Man of Truth had to ascend to the Highest Heaven just as he had descended to the Lowest Hell so he could fill all things (Ephesians 4:10). When he ascended into the Highest Heaven he entered the Holy Place to pour out his own blood to complete our redemption from sin (Hebrews 9:11-12). The Tabernacle and the two Temples had only been copies on Earth to mirror the real Temple in Heaven where the blood of the Man of Truth would permanently remove sin instead of only temporarily covering sin up (Hebrews 9:23-26). Every burnt offering from Abel forward was only a demonstration on Earth of the offering that the Man of Truth would make complete in Heaven (Hebrews 12:22-24).
Was this resurrection of the Man of Truth a one time event or is there more to come?
The Father of Truth made sure that everyone understood that the Man of Truth had freed the Children of Truth from death. The Father of Truth resurrected some of the Children of Truth that had been buried in Jerusalem after he had resurrected the Man of Truth (Matthew 27:52-53). These were probably ones that had died recently like Lazarus and the repentant thief since David, who had died about a thousand years earlier, was not resurrected (Acts 2:29). All of the Children of Truth will be raised from the dead so that death will be completely swallowed up in victory (1 Corinthians 15:54-55). Since the Man of Truth was resurrected all the Children of Truth go to Heaven to be with the Man of Truth when they die instead of being held captive in the Upper Hell (2 Corinthians 5:8). The Man of Truth had died to destroy the power of the Father of Lies to hold people captive by the fear of death (Hebrews 2:14-15). The Man of Truth was only the firstborn of those that will be resurrected from the dead (Colossians 1:18). One day, all the Children of Truth that have died will also be resurrected right before those Children of Truth that are still alive are given an incorruptible body without first dying (1 Thessalonians 4:15-17). Finally, those that Children of Truth that come into the House of Truth afterwards will be resurrected right before the Man of Truth begins his reign over the Earth as the last phase of the first resurrection (Revelation 20:4-6).
Sadly, there is another resurrection for those that do come into the House of Truth and remain there (Daniel 12:2). This resurrection is for those that neglect to come into the House of Truth after all that the Man of Truth has done to save them (Hebrews 2:2-4). This resurrection is for those that remained Children of Lies so that they can spend eternity with the Father of Lies because they would not come into the House of Truth (Revelation 20:10-15).
Which resurrection will you have?
You can have the first resurrection if you will come into the House of Truth by giving the Man of Truth control over every aspect of your life because you believe that the Father of Truth raised him from the dead (Romans 10:8-11). You can have the better resurrection if you will refuse to leave the House of Truth under any circumstances (Hebrews 11:35-36).
Come into the House of Truth.
When was the Man of Truth dead anyways?
The Man of Truth said that he would be in the heart of the Earth for three days and three nights (Matthew 12:40). The Man of Truth was dead before sunset on the day of preparation when the Passover lambs were slain for the high Sabbath of the first day of the Feast of Unleavened bread when the Passover meal was to be eaten (Mark 15:42-44). When Mary Magdalene arrived before sunrise on the first day of the week (Sunday) she found that the Man of Truth had already rose from the dead (John 20:1-2).
So the Man of Truth was dead all of three nights (Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday night) and all of three days (Thursday day, Friday day, Saturday day) as he had said. He actually died on Wednesday shortly before sunset and rose again on Sunday sometime after the three AM change of the Roman guards and before Mary Magdalene arrived which was before sunrise.
