"For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect."
The Law of the Spirit has a body, which is enshrined in the everlasting covenant as the man created 'after our image' and after our likeness." The Law of Moses was merely a shadow of good things to come, signifying Jesus Christ was the fulfilment of the Law. In the Beatitudes he made it clear. "I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil."(Matt.5:17)
The worlds framed by the word of God the slain Lamb was an emblem but would be made to appear 'in the fulness of time.' So the Law of Mose in which animal sacrifices were instituted only pointed to the world made to appear where the earth abides for ever for the reason Jesus Christ was the embodiment of the Law of the Spirit.(Ec.1:4) John the Baptist pointing out the Lamb of God because the Holy Spirit stepped in to identify signalled the coming of the world made to appear. By the same token the throne of the Lamb is a world the new creation shall be glorifed fulfilling the Pauline dictum,"For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren."(Ro.8:20) Glory of the light of the Lamb is the name which is glory of the Law. It is a spiritual body and nothing of the flesh shall be there. This body of evidence is what the world made to appear shall establish. Till such time the law of Moses was the device , a shadow of good things to come.
The Lamb, the body as an emblem in the divine Will connects with the Throne of God so what is the role of faith? It closes the gape between the two thrones so the Word or the voice from heaven announces,"And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people."(Re.21:3)
