The Mysterious Ark of the Covenant of the Old Testament in the Bible.

To the Israelites or Hebrews of the Old Testament the ark was God’s throne. Deuteronomy 10:3 tells us the ark was a wooden chest to hold the tablets of stone on which the 10 Commandments were inscribed. It was 4 feet long, 2 feet wide & 2 feet high. It was overlaid with gold inside and out. It had gold rings for the poles used to carry it. This ark was portable and had to be carried. On top was a golden cover or mercy seat. It had 2 golden winged creatures called cherubims. Their spreading wings covered the mercy seat. This ark was so holy and possessed such great power that it had to be treated with major care and respect. This ark rested in the Most Holy Place in the Tabernacle and Temple. Only the High Priest at that time was allowed in the Most Holy Place and only once a year on the day of Atonement. The ark finally found a permanent home in the first temple built by Solomon in Jerusalem. The ark was carried in the wilderness journeys. King David of the Old Testament took the ark to Jerusalem. Before the ark was made Moses directed that a pot of manna and Aaron’s rod that budded with the tablets of the 10 Commandments were inside the ark. God traveled with the people from this ark. This chest is very sacred and holy and what happened to it is unknown. It disappeared after the destruction of the first temple. On the day of atonement once a year the Jews celebrated this holiday. This holiday is in August of every year. It was a day of severe strictest conformity to the law. The High Priest Aaron before entering the Most Holy Place had a ceremonial bath and put on white garments. He sacrificed a bullock to make atonement for himself and other priests. The blood of the bullock was sprinkled on the mercy seat of the ark. The Holy of Holies the first room of the tabernacle was sanctified by incense. When Jesus Christ came to Earth these strict rules of the tabernacle and temple rites were done away with. God lives in each one of us in our hearts with his holy spirit. Today we worship and honor God through prayer and respect and honor his son Jesus Christ also with respect for Jesus is the only way to know God. Thank You.

“What's That Sound?”

Chapter 10 by Bumpy Thermos As I walked down to the windmill, I remembered what my mom had told me once. She had told us all that the windmill was haunted and not to go down there by ourselves. Somehow that did not slow me down. It was just starting to get a little dark as I got close enough to get a good look at the boy. It looked like he had been hitting the windmill with a big stick. I saw the big stick still in his hand. But now he was just talking to the windmill. Was I now even more curious than before? Oh yea I was. The closer I got to the windmill the more scared I got. The rocks that had been moved there helped with my cover, but I just could not get close enough to actually make out exactly what was going on. I could hear him talking, but what was the other sound? I could see him talking. I could even see his eyes and his hands moving. I just couldn’t get close enough to make out what he was saying. I just sat there hiding from the boy, waiting, I don’t know for what but, boy was I scared. All of a sudden something touched me on my back and I just about messed up my pants. The boy who had come by and told me about this had not gone home, but had followed me and was standing right behind me. OMG, he had scared me so bad. I think that I must of made a noise. The boy must have heard us and threw the big stick down and started waking back toward his house. That was a close one. If that neighborhood boy hadn’t startled me, I might have found out what was going on. Darn him. The next day was the same for us, but I did not see the boy. He must had stayed home. He didn’t walk by that day. That afternoon, the same two men that had come before the little girl was taken, arrived. I don’t think that the mom knew they were coming this time. She did not act prepared. The two men walked up to the door and together they all walked back inside. No sound for a minute, then all kind of screaming was going on. The women was screaming at the top of her lungs and the little girl as well. Mom broke in then crying and said that that day was the worse day ever. The family was destroyed that day she said. The little crippled girl had passed away. At that point, mom broke down into a crying fit. She was crying so hard, dad had to stop the story and take her into the kitchen. When they came back, mom seemed to be better and dad went on with the story. Dad said that they were not sure what had happened, but the news was terrible. Oh no, what is going to happen when the boy finds out? What is he going to do? How will he be able to handle such a horrible thing? The boy was where he always was just screaming on his own, pounding on the windmill with that same old stick. The two men left and soon the mom and the little girl came out of the house. The little girl was able to walk now and off they went to where the boy was. I did not know what to do. It was terrible, just terrible. The mom and the lttle girl got to the windmill and tried to talk to the boy, but he wasn’t having it. He just kept on hitting the windmill and screaming. The mom and little girl finally went back in the house, but the boy just kept on hitting and screaming. He continued to do the same hitting and screaming way into the night. I am not sure when he finally stopped, I had fallen asleep. But the next morning…
