OUR JEWISH ROOTS
hates nudity. We see the priests had to wear underpants called a “linen un­
dergarment.” If they went up on the altar without this on, the Bible says they
would die because their nudity was exposed before God. So why would God
create Adam and Eve naked if he hated nudity? Also, what happened after
the fall that they went from partially naked to completely nude? Part of God
creating man in his image had to do with the glory. We read in Psalm 104:1­
2 that God wraps himself in light. This has to do with a clothing of glory.
Adam and Eve were naked before the fall, but they were actually clothed in
the glory of God. When they sinned, the glory lifted. For all have sinned and
fall short of the glory. I will talk more about the priestly garments and the
glory later in this book. I wanted to make a point that the glory was lost at the
fall, but was given back to mankind through Israel.
What we lose without our Jewish heritage
So we see that we are cut off from the anointing, the glory, sound doctrine,
and our foundation when we are cut off from our Jewish roots. It is little won­
der the western gentile church is no where near where the early church was
in power and victory! Much of the western gentile church has withered and
died spiritually speaking. There is no life or anointing.
A new apostolic day
The last point I want to make is about an apostolic shift I believe is coming.
The early churches apostolic headship was based out of Jerusalem. Other
apostolic teams were all over. We are very familiar with Paul and Barnabas
who were apostles to the gentiles, but the center headship was in Jerusa­
lem. We see Paul and Barnabas recognizing this and submitting to that
headship in Acts 15. After the great persecutions of that time, the apostolic
headship shifted to Rome and became the Roman Catholic Church. I believe
that God never intended for this to happen. When this happened, the church
was cut off from its Jewish roots and became completely gentile. This led
into the dark ages! I believe before Jesus returns we will have apostolic
movements planted all over the world, but the headship will once again be in
Jerusalem. I also believe that our Jewish heritage will be regained and given
proper honor.
As you move into this book, you will see patterns God has established and
Jesus has fulfilled. If you apply the patterns of God to your life and ministry,
you will begin to see a flow of the anointing like never before. You will also
begin to experience the glory for yourself. My first encounter with the glory
was when a man of God called me out in a revival meeting. He said God
spoke to him about passing a mantle on to me. When he prayed for me, I
went out under the glory. I was pinned to the floor and couldn’t move for a
long time! That weight on me was the glory. I have looked into the patterns
