Re: Pre-Service Prayer in Apostolic Churches?

Well as I posted on another page, I believe the OT pattern of what the High Priest did before entering into the presence of God and being ready to hear God's word, shows what we should do in the NT church.

I wonder why God just didn't tell the High Priest to just come into the Holiest of holies whenever he wanted to and just make sure he have sacrificed an animal or 2 for your sins and the sins of the people? Why bother with the washing at the brazen laver and burning incense before the veil? Why all the steps and in a specific order and only once a year?

I mean God changes not - his essential character does not change - so what was the big deal in the OT?

I believe as Moses was shown to doing everything after the pattern in the heavenlies, it was all a shadow of the real thing in heaven and what was to come in the NT.

Rom 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.
