a. THIS ALTAR WAS IN THE HOLY PLACE AND THE FIRE WAS NEVER TO GO OUT. (LEV. 1:7)
b. A SWEET SMELLING SAVOR WAS TO BE OFFERED TO THE LORD.
c. THIS TYPLIFIES THE WORSHIP THAT COMES WHEN A PERSON HAS PASSED THE BRAZEN ALTAR, THE BRAZEN LAVER, AND INTO THE HOLY PLACE (RECEIVES THE HOLY GHOST) (AS THE FIRE IS NOT TO GO OUT, NEITHER IS OUR PRAISE.)

4. BUT, REMEMBER…..THERE HAS TO BE A PRIEST TO OFFER THE SACRIFICE ON THE BRAZEN ALTAR, TO WASH IN THE BRAZEN LAVER, AND TO PUT THE SWEET SMELLING SAVOR ON THE COALS OF FIRE. (THIS IS THE ALTAR WORKER!!!!!)

3. EVERYBODY HAS A PLACE IN THE WORK OF GOD. YOUR SALVATION IS PREDICATED ON FINDING THIS AND WORKING DILIGENTLY. (ECC. 9:11 WHATSOEVER THY HAND FINDETH TO DO, DO IT WITH THY MIGHT: FOR THERE
IS NOT WORK. IN THE GRAVE WHERE YOU GO.)

2. IF THERE IS JOY IN HEAVEN & AMONG THE ANGELS…THEY MUST NOT ONLY BE THERE AT THE ALTAR…BUT ALL OF HEAVEN IS WATCHING OUR PENTENCOSTAL ALTARS.

3. THE WHOLE PLAN OF GOD & HIS DIVINE PURPOSE IS ENACTED AT OUT ALTARS.

G. HOW SATAN LOOKS AT THE ALTAR. (JOHN 10:10)
