Back to THE SECOND GOAT

The issue of the second goat, of Leviticus 16, is that of the removal of the presence of rebellion and sin. God desires to establish obedience and righteous behavior throughout the universe. The purpose of the new covenant, the Christian covenant, is to enable the worshiper to practice righteousness. The ultimate goal is a new world of righteousness in which even the memory of sin has been removed.

 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. (I Peter 3:13)

As we have said, the perfect atonement for sin was made on the cross of Calvary. Any person may come to the Lord Jesus and receive the forgiveness of sin. The good news of the forgiveness of sins through the blood of the Lord Jesus has been preached well throughout the world.

Now we have come to the second goat, the goat of removal. It is time for us to address the verses of the Bible that deal with actual righteousness of behavior, not just forgiveness but righteous behavior. These verses constitute the majority of passages of the New Testament.

While Satan may be somewhat concerned with the message concerning the forgiveness of our guilt, he is tremendously concerned with the message concerning the removal of our sinful behavior. Such removal marks the end of his kingdom of lawlessness.

Satan is no fool. He has sent forth four mammoth errors, "four horsemen of error" we term them, into Christian thinking. Each of the four has as its objective to destroy righteous, obedient behavior in the Christian churches.

The four great errors, the four horsemen, are as follows:

Humanism.

Gnosticism.

Antinomianism.

Dispensationalism.

Each of the four has as its objective to prevent righteous, obedient behavior on the part of Christian people. Each is a direct attack on the establishing of the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.
