This is fake, but where is the real Ark of the Covenant? And who is the Indiana Jones today? Will allow me to introduce you to the three people who claim to have found it. Number one, Rabbi Yehuda in 1982 Rabbi Yehuda and his friend Shlomo goren conducted a risky secretive archaeological dig. Why did they have to be so private about it? Because they were digging Beneath the Temple Mount and above the Temple.
Mount are a number of sacred religious buildings, which hold a lot of value and meaning to religious groups around the world. But the two men say that they broke through into the Western Wall and there they found an inner chamber that went back, 28 meters. And at the bottom of this chamber was the Ark of the Covenant. Both the men say they saw the ark, they were feet away from it, but they refuse to touch it. But one day they claim when the Jewish Temple is rebuilt.
They will bring the Ark of the Covenant out and show it to the rest of the world, whilst these excavations, and these digs are going on privately. A radio company, got wind of it and they leaked the information across all of Israel by morning. There were great, big groups of Rowdy angry people saying, how dare you dig beneath the Temple? Mount and as, you know, the situation in Israel is still very tense.
That's why no further excavations have been able to take place ever since Yes, but what do you think? Do you think Rabbi Yehuda really found the Ark of the Covenant will stay tuned? Because I would like to give you my opinion of where I think the ark is today, number two, the monks of Aksum in a tiny, little chapel in Ethiopia, there is a group of monks who claim they have the Ark of the Covenant.
There are a number of different stories about how the ark arrived in Ethiopia. But the point is this, this group claimed that they hold onto one of the most sacred? Jack's in world history. Now there is a problem. The problem is this, the monks are so secretive about it, they will not allow any other Outsiders to enter into the chapel and there is just one, Guardian monk, who is allowed to look after the ark and set his eyes on it.
Why is this such a problem? But it's very hard to test their claims and one man, Edward Ohlendorf, the professor of Ethiopian studies, he actually says that he did get an opportunity to set his eyes on this supposed Arc and he said, it was nothing. Nothing more than a wooden box, a wooden box that was built in the medieval period long after the biblical era. So again I'll ask you, where do you think the Ark of the Covenant is do you believe it's
in Ethiopia? Because I know for a fact, some of you will not be expecting my answer to this question. Number three, Ron, Wyatt Ron Wyatt is one of the forerunners who discovered Noah's Ark in durapan our turkey. But did Ron Wyatt find another Arc? Did he find the Ark of the Covenant? School Rumble. Leave the location was at what is supposed to be the garden tomb? Just next to Calvary. That's where he believed the ark
was located. So he gained permission and he began to dig at the Garden tomb and there he found a passageway and what Ron claims is directly beneath the cross holes directly beneath where Jesus Christ died, that is where the Ark of the Covenant was found. And when Ron says he found it, he said he also met Four Angels. Who told him? Yes. Take pictures take videos but Keep the footage there in the chamber and at the appointed time that is when you will reveal it to the rest of the
world. Now, it's difficult to say whether Ron really did find the Ark of the Covenant because we don't have the same body of evidence that we do to some of his other discoveries. But again, over to you, do you think Ron Wyatt is the man who found the Ark of the Covenant, swell? I think my answer is going to shock you in a moment's time, but first, we need to answer the question. Why is this one of the most important objects in? World to both Christians and
Jews alike will firstly. It's because it was designed by God. God had given very specific instructions of how the arc should be designed. It was to be overlaid both inside and outside by gold at the bottom were attached for golden rings. And through these Rings went poles of archaea would which meant that the priests could carry the ark when it was necessary. But most beautiful of all was the atonement cover or the mercy seats on either side of this.
Mercy seats, stood two, golden cherubim with their wings spread out, and this was a sign that these two cherubim obeyed. God, they had a tension facing into the mercy seat facing, where God met with the people and they obeyed, only him, but what do you think was inside of the Ark of the Covenant? Well, it had the Ten Commandments, the very Commandments that were written by the Finger of God.
And also Insight was Abraham staff and a jar of manner, which reminded the people of Israel that God Provided for them when they were wandering in the desert for 40 years, but here's why the ark was so precious. You see, if I could sum up the Bible, if I could sum up, all Thirty One Thousand verses in the Bible, in just one word. What would you think? I choose atonement and the Ark of the Covenant represented atonement for the sins of the people.
Let me explain it to you. He see the arc is natural resting. Place was in the temple was in the Tabernacle of God and this happen. Tackle was a very holy place, but in the Tabernacle, where the ark was, there was a curtain which separated it and behind the curtain from this already. Holy place was a place that was even Holier. It was called the holy of holies and no one could enter behind that curtain except for the priest and the priest couldn't just enter any day.
Any day that he felt like it. No he could only answer one day a year on the day of atonement which was called Yom Kippur and on Yom Kippur when the priest Sit in there. It was a very precious day because it says in the Bible that has the priest entered into the holy of holies.
Their God met with him, their God hovered above the Ark of the Covenant, but listen to me meeting with God is very different to if you and I met you see the priest, the high priest had to go to very special measures before he met with the Lord, he had to bathe himself, he had to put on a special garment and then he had to sacrifice.
Twice, a bull as a sin offering for his sins and for his family sins also, and once he had the blood only, once he had the blood, could he go behind the veil and meet with the Lord? And with the blood, he would dip his finger and he would, sprinkle it on the mercy seat. Once the high priest sins have been dealt with then he could proceed into making a sin offering for the people. So we talk to ghosts, the first
goats he sacrificed. And just like he did with the ball, he took the blood of that goat behind the Certain and there he sprinkled The Blood On The Mercy Seat as a way of appeasing, the wrath of God for the many sins that the people of Israel had committed their. The blood was shed because our
sin is worthy of death. And then with the second goats, he took that goat and he laid hands on the goats heads and there as he did that, there was a sort of process a spiritual Act of the sins of the people being transferred onto that goals. He then called an appointed man and that appointed Man, took the goat Into the Wilderness and Let
It Go free. And as that goat ran away, it took the sins, it removed, the sins into a far, remote place far away from the people and that is where we get the term scapegoats from now. Before I reveal to you, my opinion on, where I think the ark is today, can I ask you a question? Do you see it yet? Can you see it does anything? I've just said sound familiar to any other amazing act that happened 2,000 years ago. Well, perhaps this Bible verse will drive it home for you
unlike the other high priests. He that is Jesus does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins and then for the sins of the people, he sacrificed for their sins. Once for all when he offered himself. Now, do you see it? We have a new high priest, a great high priest, and his name is Jesus Christ, Jesus. Us Christ, did not have to bring before God, a sin offering for his own sins, because the Lord Jesus Christ was totally sinless. He was righteous and he had done
nothing wrong. So he could stand before God boldly and say, I am sinless. I present the sacrificed. This great high priest. He did not have to keep entering into the temple once a year to offer a sacrifice for the people know when Christ Jesus hung on that cross when he was nailed to that tree, that was one sacrifice once for all that is
eternally sufficient to pay. The price for all of our sins forever and as a brother, once said to me in a church, the blood of Jesus Christ is eternally cleansing us from our
sins. And the next thing you need to know is this the Lord Jesus Christ he did not end Sir with the blood of an animal no he presented his own blood before the Lord. God that blood was there to appease the wrath of God. So, the Roth that abides on you and I the Roth for our sins, where we stand before, God condemned for our lies, our sin, our Blasphemy all the wrong
things we've done. That Roth was turned away and placed on Jesus Christ, and there he absorbed it so that we could be forgiven and that blood can washes whiter than snow. The Lord, Jesus Christ that day did away with all animal sacrifices, no more did Lambs need to be sacrificed. No more did balls need to be sacrificed because he is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world and something that probably comes to your mind.
When I say about the high priests, the Lord Jesus Christ. Is that great big curtain. That great big Veil that went from the top of the temple down to the Boston that separated the holy place of the temple from the most. Holy the holy of holies what happens when Jesus Christ cried out. These three words, it is finished. The curtain was torn in two and that is the most beautiful sign that now you, and I a sinful.
While people can enter boldly into the presence of God, the way is open because God the mediator between God and man, God, the middleman, Jesus Christ in the flesh. He met with us. So, that we could now enter before God and were no longer separated, because of our sin, because Christ paid the price for our sin, he was a sin offering that we need. So the only thing I need to ask you is, will you come will you calm and ask the Lord? Jesus Christ. Be your lord and savior.
Will you ask him? Bring you into reconciliation with God to bring you back. You've been separated for so long because of your sins. But today, you can be drawn back to the father through that very act. The Lord Jesus Christ. Did, if you want to, you can have it just like that goat was sent miles and miles away, because it took the sins of the people away into a remote place. So the Lord Jesus Christ, can separate your sins. As far as the East is from the West.
They can be gone and it's yours if you'd like it today. But if you refuse, Is it? Well then the wrath of God abides on you and you will be a child of Wrath and one day you will endure the punishment for your sins in all of its fullness in Hell forever. And that really is the only reason I made these videos because I do not want you to go to hell. I want you to find the Forgiveness that can be found in Jesus Christ.
Okay, you've waited long enough. Where do I personally think the Ark of the Covenant is located today but I don't want to offend
anyone and just know this side. Don't have the Monopoly on Truth. This is just my own personal opinion but I do find it very interesting that from the point of second Chronicles chapter 35, never again do we hear about the Ark of the Covenant in all of scripture and what we know from world history, is that in 587 BC, the Babylonians besieged, the city of Jerusalem, they talked it over and they destroyed the temple and set the whole city Ablaze.
So, one theory is perhaps the ark was destroyed. It. But another school of thought is this, some people believe that the Prophet Jeremiah was warned by God, that this was going to happen. So we took the Ark of the Covenant and he hid it in a secret place. Now, we have to be very careful with this Theory because nowhere. Do we read of it in the scripture?
But suppose, that is the case, suppose it is hidden somewhere beneath the Earth. Personally again, I'm not sure that we will ever find it. Because do we really deserve to find it here? We have a That is so full, and it is so depraved that his soul in touch with dark things. And we promote so many wrong things. Do we really deserve to handle something as sacred as the Ark of the Covenant? I don't think we do.
And as I said previously, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Ark of the Covenant, although it was precious at that time. We don't need it anymore because we have a new covenant with the Lord. Jesus Christ, blood and really that's enough for me and I hope that's enough for you too. But if You are an atheist and you do have big questions and
you want more evidence. Here is the number one question that atheists always ask me check out this video because I hope it will answer it for you once and for all
