Q:Peter refers to judgment that must begin at the house of God. Perhaps it ought to explain the mystery of iniquity associated with the covering cherub?"
A: Judgment must begin with the Law of the Spirit. for it is he who judged the cherub, and said,"Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee." (Ez.28:15). St Paul's quote, "For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law" points to law of sin was limited to the heavenly places and not on the earth made to appear by the word. It is to this the vision of Daniel (Dan.7:10,13;Ro.5:13) alludes and thereafter we have this verse "and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, " And judgment was set, the books were opened." deals with the mystery of iniquity in heaven. "Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?"(Is.66:1). It is implied that the mystery of iniquity was found in the house of God and God would want to know with the house made with hands. King Solomon at the dedication of the temple refers to it," But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?"(1 Ki.8:27).
We see law of sin demonstrated at Mount Sinai over the golden calf. "And the Lord plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made." Law of Moses was yet to be dispensed. Yet The Law of the Spirit would quell the riot.
Mystery of iniquity was in the disbelief. "the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him." So Aaron somewhat like a papal bull made a doctrine. "and said, To morrow is a feast to the Lord."(Ex.32:5),
