  The Sanctuary and the Dominion

 

               by Dr. Bertrand Comparet

                                                          

 

                    Those who have deeply studied the Bible know that the

living descendants of God's People ISRAEL are today those nations

which are commonly known as the "Anglo‑Saxon" group, including

the British, the Germans, the Scandinavians, the Dutch, and their

descendants in the United States and the various colonies of these

nations. Knowing this fact enables us to explain and understand

their history as the fulfillment of Bible prophecies concerning

ISRAEL: and it also enables us to foretell their future by applying

those few Bible prophecies concerning ISRAEL which have not yet

been fulfilled.

 

                    Every event in our history for 3,000 years has

demonstrated its faithful adherence to God's prophesied plan: each

event for its own purpose‑‑which also required each event to come

at its appointed time. If we lose sight of PURPOSE, we fail to

understand why the event happened WHEN it did; if we lose sight

of TIME, we misunderstand the PURPOSE.

 

                    When the people of ISRAEL entered the Promised Land

of Palestine, they were 12 Tribes organized into one nation just like

this United States of 50 States. Even from early times, however,

there were internal jealousies which foretold the coming division

into two nations: David was king over Judah for several years

before he became king over all ISRAEL. On the death of King

Solomon, in 975 B.C., the nation was broken in two‑‑the ten

northern Tribes becoming a separate

kingdom with their capital city at Samaria, and keeping the name

Israel; while the two southern Tribes of Judah and Benjamin kept

the old capital city of Jerusalem, and took the name JUDAH for their

kingdom. The great turning points of our history are no mere

accidents; and God said of this division, "This thing is of Me" (1

Kings 12: 24).

 

                     ISRAEL left Egypt and entered Palestine as ONE nation:

yet God's purpose in the later division was already predestined.

Psalm 114: 1‑2 says: "When Israel went out

of Egypt, the House of Jacob from a people of strange language,

JUDAH was His SANCTUARY, and ISRAEL His DOMINION"‑TWO

PURPOSES to be served, each by a

separate nation.

 

                    Through Jesus Christ, God reached down toward man,

to bring man salvation, redemption, a good life under God's own

rule; to complete this contact and receive these gifts, man reached

up toward God, through God's Chosen People, ISRAEL. But what is

too often lost sight of is the fact that God's purpose toward man

involves

more than just the religious phase, necessary though that is. FOR

WHAT PURPOSE are we saved? It is to live in THE KINGDOM OF

GOD, that same Kingdom of God which Jesus Christ preached

throughout His entire career. The end of God's purpose is social,

economic, governmental, to which the other is but the means.

Hence we must recognize both the religious and the governmental

purposes.

 

                    Jesus Christ came the first time as our High Priest, to

offer on our behalf the

sacrifice of His own blood for our sins; He will come again as King

of kings and Lord of lords, to rule a world‑wide empire from the

throne of His own Kingdom. A priest functions only at the altar; a

king only at the throne. Hence, there must be provided for Him the

altar of sacrifice at His first coming, and the throne at His second

coming. Note how God fulfilled this: Psalm 114 tells us that JUDAH

was His SANCTUARY, and ISRAEL His DOMINION, and that this was

predestined from the time they left Egypt 5 centuries before the

nation was divided, and 15 centuries before the crucifixion.

 

                     After the division into the two nations in 975 B.C., the

10‑tribed northern kingdom of Israel had no need to remain longer

in Palestine, for its destiny was to furnish the DOMINION, the

Kingdom of God, to be ruled by Jesus Christ when He shall come

the second time. The tiny land of Palestine can never furnish this: it

would scarcely provide standing room for the multitudes which

ISRAEL would become, according to God's promises in the Bible,

and it lacked the enormous resources promised to

ISRAEL and which were needed to produce the mighty power of

the predestined Kingdom. Accordingly, they were removed from

their old, Palestinian land, by the      Assyrian captivity a thing

which seemed harsh at the time, yet it was necessary for they

would not have left their old home voluntarily. After about 715 B.C.,

they were out of Palestine, embarked on the long migration which

would bring them, many centuries later, into their north and west

European homelands, and from there to spread into the United

States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. In these

new homes, they developed such advanced civilization, such

wealth and power as were never before known in all world

history‑‑and this, also in

fulfillment of God's prophecies for ISRAEL. While they remained

frankly, boldly

CHRISTIAN, these nations ruled half the world. It was only after we

allowed those who hate Jesus Christ to immigrate, to infiltrate our

institutions, to influence and corrupt our leaders, that we have been

put on the defensive and driven out of our colonial possessions.

We must remember that it is JESUS CHRIST'S DOMINION that we

hold: and we can keep it only as long as we hold it FOR HIM. In

these, the ISRAEL nations, we find the DOMINION, just as the 114th

Psalm prophesied; but they had no part in the First Coming of

Jesus Christ, as the SANCTUARY for the High Priest was not in

their destiny.

 

                    But what of the other, the southern, 2‑Tribed Kingdom

of Judah? Originally, the throne had been in Judah, but out of the

Tribe of Judah was taken David and his family to be the kings; and

the throne was forever given to the House of David. But the

DOMINION was not in the destiny of the Kingdom of Judah, so the

Davidic king line ceased in Judah at the time of the Babylonian

captivity; but it was transferred to Ireland, where the two king lines

of Pharez and Zarah were united; and from here can be traced the

British royal family today so the throne, the

DOMINION, has remained in ISRAEL.

 

                    However, the SANCTUARY, the Temple, remained in

the southern Kingdom of

Judah. True, it was infiltrated and corrupted with alien priests and

alien doctrines, after the return from Babylon: yet it was still His

Sanctuary, even though occupied by usurpers, just as the Kingdom

is still His, even though usurpers have wrongfully

occupied His land. Since only the SANCTUARY was to be there, we

find no majestic dominion in Judah. In its very origin, it was

reduced to only two out of the 12 Tribes. It shrank in importance,

becoming vassal alternately to Egypt and Babylonia;

after the Babylonian captivity, it was vassal to Persia, Syria, and

finally the least of the provinces of Rome. But here was the

SANCTUARY, and to it came Jesus Christ;  here He offered Himself

in sacrifice, and entered into the real Holy of Hollies with His own

blood as the offering for our sins. This completed the work of the

SANCTUARY, the separate destiny of JUDAH, and 40 years

thereafter JUDAH ceased to exist as a nation separate from

ISRAEL.

 

                    Jesus Christ preached only the Gospel of the Kingdom

of God, not the Gospel of Personal Salvation. The prophets before

Him had foretold His life, crucifixion,

resurrection, and the salvation of men and redemption of ISRAEL

which He accomplished thereby. Why repeat it? As Jesus said, "If

they will not hear Moses and

the prophets, neither will they believe though one rose from the

dead." Therefore, He did not preach the part of His mission which

was finished. Now it was time to preach the KINGDOM OF GOD, to

inspire His people ISRAEL to work out their destiny in preparing for

Him the Kingdom, the DOMINION, for His second coming.

 

                    When He came the first time, the priests ignored the

114th Psalm, and would not accept Him as Savior, as the Great High

Priest: they would accept Him only as King, or not at all. Today,

nearly all churches make a similar mistake. They ignore the 114th

Psalm; they refuse to see we are ISRAEL, and our destiny is to

furnish the DOMINION, not the SANCTUARY. They preach only a

Savior, not a King; they offer Him only the cross, not the crown. But

God's destiny is not to be frustrated: The Israel NATIONS have

created the DOMINION, whose work is still ahead. The history of

JUDAH leads to Christ's first coming; the history of ISRAEL leads to

His second coming. The THRONE is as literal as the CROSS: He

was given His SANCTUARY: Now we must give Him His DOMINION.
