( 257 ) Pr 20:9 � Who can say , I have made my heart "leb" clean , I am pure from my sin ?

Who can say I have my heart clean and pure from my sin-offering?
The word here is chataah, not chata, the word for sin.
Can human make their heart pure and clean by making
a sacrifice through a sin-offering ? No. That's why the question
was asked. Only Jesus can make such a sin offering, and thus
only Jesus make our hearts clean and pure.
But as we read somewhat difficultly in Paul
the sin-offering we make can trip us up,
if not fully followed through properly.
Ro 7:17 Now then it is no more I that do it,
but sin-offering that dwelleth in me.
This question is asked in Proverbs 20:9, can I make
my heart pure and clean by my sin-offering ? No
We want to do good, but the sin-offering keeps making us do bad.
Ro 7:22 For I delight in the Torah of God after the inward man:
23 But I see another Torah in my members, warring against the Torah of
my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the Torah of sin-offering
which is in my members.
Here is a battle of Torah teachings going on inside our minds,
there are two Torah teachings spoken here, The Torah of Jesus and the
Torah of the sin-offering.
Ro 8:1 � There is therefore now no condemnation to them
which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Paul speaks of the first Torah of the sin-offering from flesh,
and the second Torah of Jesus from the Holy Spirit. Notice the origins
of power have changed, but the teachings of either Torah remain the same.
Paul is speaking of the sin-offering made by human power, that pointed
forward to Jesus, but nevertheless was a Torah of sin offering based on
human powers of obedience. The second Torah of sin offering, is a
Torah of God based on Jesus' powers of obedience. This Torah of
sin-offering is more powerful and more complete than the first based
on the flesh of sinful humans. The second is based on the flesh of a
sinless human. Can you see the two sin-offerings Paul is talking about.
The Jews reading Romans in their day were familiar with the Torah
of the sin-offering, but they were new to the Torah of Jesus and the
sin-offering He made for them.
Ro 8:3 For what the Torah could not do, in that it
was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of
sin-offering of flesh, and for a sin-offering, condemned sin-offering in the flesh:
Notice Jesus came in the likeness of a sin-offering of flesh,
not as Scholars say Jesus came in sinful flesh, without sinning. No where
does the Bible speak of inherited flesh as sinful, we are not born
sinners. We become sinners by sinning. Our inherited flesh has a
porpensity to sinning. Jesus was born with the same propensity
to sinning too, but Jesus was not born of sinful flesh, whatever
people mean by this term. It's an adjective for starters, and
adjectives do not really exist in the Ancient Hebrew
construct. A noun-noun construct may exist, showing us two completed
actions. Jesus came in the likeness of a sin-offering of flesh.
This means Jesus was born as our SIN-BEARER.
And becoming a human sacrifice, Jesus body was broken for us sinners.
His flesh was torn, cut and broken for sinners.
Jesus died to set men free from the penalty of sinning.
Jesus' flesh was pure and clean but became a sin-offering for sinners.
O praise Him ! For such glorious cost for such a little mite like me.
And because of His sin-offering for me, spiritual power flows
through me. Which spiritual power ?
The Father's spiritual power.
It flows because of Jesus, administrated
by the Holy Spirit, living in every human
while Jesus our High priest resides in heaven
near the Father to allow such a flow of the Father's
power possible, into every sinner who is saved by the
grace of Jesus ! Shalom
