"Jesus is the Staircase" takes you on a journey up the steps of the only Staircase that reaches Heaven. In Genesis 28, Jacob dreamed of a ladder or "Staircase" that reached Heaven, and he saw the angels of God "ascending and descending" on that Staircase. Years later, in the Gospel of John, Jesus identified Himself as being the Staircase that Jacob had dreamed about when He said, "Hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."
Every prophecy, type and shadow, number, pattern, and symbol in the Old Testament was simply another step on the Staircase that Jacob dreamed about, and Jesus is the fulfillment of it all.
As you walk up the steps of the Staircase, unique mysteries are revealed. You will discover how:
-The number "66" declares the redemption story of Jesus Christ and why the number "666" is an abomination to God.
-The menorah (the golden candlestick) stood in the Tabernacle to give witness to the works that Jesus was coming to accomplish.
-The ark of the covenant was a veiled reference to the resurrection of Jesus and the gift of the Holy Spirit.
-God's plan of redemption in Christ was given in a "numerical map" of 3 measures.
-The number "40" declares the breach of sin between God and His creation that could not be crossed until Jesus.
-There are patterns in the Tabernacle of Moses and the Journey of Israel from Egypt to the Promised Land, which served as a "map" of our salvation in Christ.
Through the Old Testament, God showed us what Jesus would look like so that when He came, we would know He is the Son of God-the only way to the Father.
"Jesus is the Staircase" compels us to consider the greatness of this one man whom the entire Bible was not only written about, but He is also the one who fulfills it all. Jesus Is The Staircase.
