The below study is actually a transcript of my comments on question #24 in the Last Days Bible study Course we offer online. I am posting it here so as to have a permanent place of reference for those that need to prove Ron Wyatt is in fact a false teacher. A few people are beginning to be confused by his claims and strange doctrines regarding the ark of the covenant in the New Testament church. As a pastor in the SDR church it is my duty to not only warn the flock, but to give them the tools by which to warn others. I pray that what you find here is a blessing to behold.

Now before reading the passage given in the study, I need to make a comment so as to clarify something that has been moving about in very small circles within and without the church for about 14 years now. It is time to strike it down as it may affect the faith of some of the faithful if confusion is allowed to have its say.

In recent weeks there has been some question regarding the sprinkling of the blood of Christ. Some think it had to be shed in the same place the biblical type, or lamb’s blood was shed in the earthly sanctuary. Men like Ron Wyatt have even declared this is so by claiming to have found the ark of the covenant even though he never physically produced the ark, nor did he even have a photo of it, some still believe what he said about the ark and Christ’s blood.

Wyatt claims that when Jesus died 2000 years ago that the water and the blood of our Lord trickled down the cross, went through a crack in the rock holding the cross up and then dripped directly onto the ark of the covenant that was supposedly hidden in a cave under Golgotha where Christ was then being crucified. Not only is there not a single Bible verse to back this claim in either the Old or New Testament that Christ’s blood needed to be sprinkled on the earthly copy of the ark of the covenant. The man Ron Wyatt died almost 14 years ago before he could prove he actually found the ark under that rock. Worse yet, the man was a Seventh Day Adventist in good standing at the time of both his discovery and death.

Now some do claim that Ron Wyatt spoke out against the SDA church a time or two, but I know of no man or woman of God in Scripture that was blessed with revelations or even granted special dispensations while in disobedience to the Lord’s written command regarding coming out of apostasy. We have historic and prophetic evidence that the SDA church was at the time Ron Wyatt was alive was in apostasy and still is to this day. So much so it has been confirmed and well documented sister of fallen Babylon. Again, some have claimed Ron Wyatt spoke out against the SDA apostasy but I have yet to see such sermons. It would be goof if some exist and I hope they do, but still, even if he had, why is it he never left the church when Scripture clearly defined apostasy as the main fruit of Babylon and Revelation 18:1-5 says to come out of Babylon? In any event, I would like to read Hebrews 9:20-28 instead of just Hebrews 9:23 as the study calls for here.

• Hebrews 9:20-28, "Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.  Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.  And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.  It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.  For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:  Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.  And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:  So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation."

Jesus is the minister of the true tabernacle which the Lord pitched and not man. From what we gather in the Word we find that after Christ died on the cross as a sin offering for all of mankind, the ceremonial law could have no force. This is perfectly addressed and confirmed in Colossians 2:14-17. I won’t go into that here as I already do so on my “Law of God” page on the site.

Still, as students of the Bible we know these ordinances were connected with the moral law in a way that glorified and even taught the plan of salvation, and they were wonderful to behold as we saw them fulfilled perfectly on Calvary. When Jesus died for us, the typical shadows of the ancient Jewish tabernacle no longer possessed any virtue at all. This is why we see the temple veil ripping in two directly after Jesus died. This means Ron Wyatt’s theory, and it is only a theory as there are no Scripture to confirm it, his theory can’t possibly be true. What I mean is, after the sin offering was killed in the earthly tabernacle the blood was then sprinkled upon the veil or on the day of atonement and on the ark itself. Thing is, when Jesus died that veil tore in two confirming the earthly tabernacle was no longer necessary. The daily and yearly typical atonement when the earthly priest offered up the blood of the sacrifice for sins committed was no longer to be made after that point. That being the case, why would His blood need to trickle down a rock to splash upon it?

Now some will say that His blood made it there before the veil was rent. But I have to say there is not a single Bible verse in the Old or New Testament that declares sin offerings were allowed to be alive when their blood was sprinkled. Absolutely every time a blood sacrifice was offered, the blood sprinkled was always that of the dead victim 100% of the time.

Still, the atoning sacrifice through a mediator is essential because of the constant commission of sin. If you have studied the sanctuary and its prophetic administrations you know that we are right now going through the spiritual day of atonement. That means, just as the earthly High Priest would offer up the blood of the sacrifice, Jesus is right now officiating in the presence of God as our High Priest, offering up His shed blood.

Just as the incense that wafted over the blood stained veil of old, our prayers today must be mingled with the cleansing drops of the blood of Christ. How is it possible in this day of atonement when there is no earthly tabernacle? It is because it is done in the Heavenly Temple not made with human hands.

When Jesus died upon the cross of Calvary, a new and living way was opened to everyone. This includes both the Jew and the Gentile. Jesus was from that day forward to officiate as priest and advocate in the heaven of heavens. How can His blood dripping on the earthly ark do all this? The earthly tabernacle was only a copy of what was truly happening on Calvary. How can the earthly be even considered after the veil was rent in two unless it is the world we seek to embrace? Are we not, the remnant of her seed taught to be seeking after the Heavenly city?

The earthly day of atonement had to be done annually and the sin offerings daily. If Ron Wyatt is correct that the blood of Christ spilled on the ark AFTER His death and AFTER the temple veil was torn, then that temple needs to be rebuilt so as to continue the sacrifices else mankind is doomed. But if the Word of God is correct, and we know it is, the offering of the blood of Christ is perfected in the Heavenly Sanctuary. In other words, the blood of lambs, oxen and doves offered for sins is now worthless. Hebrews 9:12-17 says, "Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.  For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?  And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.  For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.  For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth."

Wyatt's theology states that the blood spilled on the man-made ark fulfills the will of God, yet the Bible saus Jesus "entered in once into the holy place" to personally present His bloood. How does that happen unless #1, Jesus is alive presenting it, and #2, Jesus is in the temple "not made with hands" as Hebrews 9:11 states happened.

The Lamb of God had died for the sins of the world, and He is officiating on our behalf right now. When we sin and then confess and repent, He offers His blood that was shed for us as the atonement for that sin committed. Do we not understand that it is our privilege, that if in obedience to the Lord we can then anticipate Jesus by faith standing between humanity and the eternal throne each and every day? If we are obedient to His Word He has promised to be our Advocate, presenting our prayers and offerings as spiritual sacrifices to God.

The priest on earth offered the blood of beasts upon the veil every day, and the ark once a year. As we know the tabernacle on earth was a mere copy of the eternal one in Heaven not made by human hands. Each day the blood of beasts was offered for the sins of the people. It pointed to the true and spotless sacrifice of Christ on that cross 2000 years ago. That being said, I must ask, why would we believe the literal blood of Jesus would have to be spilled upon the copy of the ark? How can type officiate for antitype? And how can the literal blood of Jesus be continually offered on that ark over the centuries for our sins when that ark is hidden, the temple veil torn, and the presence of the Lord completely removed from it? Would it not be far more powerful for His literal blood to be offered in the original tabernacle that Moses was told to make a copy of? Is this not what we just found written in Hebrews 9:20-28 which confirms is actually happening right now?

In other words, Ron Wyatt’s theology of the literal blood of Jesus Christ falling upon the figurative ark of the covenant is not only a lie; it sets the stage for Jew and Christian alike to see the need for a third temple. Is this not what we see most Sunday keepers preaching today? And is this not what we see the Jews actively hoping to bring to fruition as we speak? What those that promote Wyatt’s heresy fail to realize is, if the blood of Jesus Himself was needed to spill on that ark, it would also have to spill again for the atonement of mankind each and every year. And if allowed, that heretical act takes away from what our High Priest, Lord and Saviour is doing right now in the Heavenly tabernacle for His obedient people.

To further confirm this as fact, Romans 8:34 says, "Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us."

Christ Jesus is repeatedly represented in Scripture as continually standing at the altar momentarily offering up the sacrifice for the sins of the whole world. He is the minister of the true Heavenly tabernacle which the Lord pitched and not man, "Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet," -Acts 7:48

The daily and yearly typical atonement is no longer to be made. But the atoning sacrifice through a mediator is essential because of the constant commission of sin by man on earth each and every day. So how can His blood on the earthly ark do anything for the sins of man when the true sacrifice is already officiating in Heaven? Jesus is officiating in the presence of our God in New Jerusalem offering up His shed blood just as the high priests on earth offered up the lamb slain for thousands of years.

All the religious services, all the prayers, all the praise and even the penitent confession of sin ascend from true believers as incense to the heavenly sanctuary as we speak. But Wyatt’s theology declares it must still pass through the earthly temple wherein even the presence of the Father left when His Son Jesus died for us 2000 years ago. How can the blood of Jesus be offered as a sacrifice of sin as it was in the Old Testament times when the Shekinah glory for which it was offered has left the building? Unless the Intercessor Jesus our Lord who is at the right hand of the Father presents and purifies all by His righteousness, it simply cannot be acceptable to our God. Jesus now holds before the Father the censer of His own righteous merits, in which there is no taint of earthly corruption whatsoever. That being said, Ron Wyatt is found to be a false teacher.

FOR MY SDA FRIENDS:

• “Christ Jesus is represented as continually standing at the altar, momentarily offering up the sacrifice for the sins of the world. He is a minister of the true tabernacle which the Lord pitched and not man. . . . A daily and yearly typical atonement is no longer to be made, but the atoning sacrifice through a mediator is essential because of the constant commission of sin. Jesus is officiating in the presence of God, offering up His shed blood, as it had been a lamb slain. . . .  Christ, our Mediator, and the Holy Spirit are constantly interceding in man's behalf, but the Spirit pleads not for us as does Christ who presents His blood, shed from the foundation of the world; the Spirit works upon our hearts, drawing out prayers and penitence, praise and thanksgiving. . . .”  {TMK 75.2,3} 

For those that think Ron Wyatt actually found the ark and the two tables of stone within it. See this...

• "The tables of stone are hidden by God, to be produced in the great judgment-day, just as He wrote them {1BC 1109.3}
• When the judgment shall sit, and the books shall be opened, and every man shall be judged according to the things written in the books, then the tables of stone, hidden by God until that day, will be presented before the world as the standard of righteousness. {1BC 1109.4}
   

Is Ron Wyatt claimg to be wiser than our God wherein he discovered what our God has hidden?

If you are one that preaches this now proven false thology, you echo the same self glorifying spirit of those unfortunate people that sought to destroy the Gospel message 2000 years ago in the Apostle John's day.

"But after a time the zeal of the believers began to wane, and their love for God and for one another grew less. Coldness crept into the church. Some forgot the wonderful manner in which they had received the truth. One by one the old standard-bearers fell at their post. Some of the younger workers, who might have shared the burdens of these pioneers, and thus have been prepared for wise leadership, had become weary of oft-repeated truths. In their desire for something novel and startling they attempted to introduce new phases of doctrine, more pleasing to many minds, but not in harmony with the fundamental principles of the gospel. In their self-confidence and spiritual blindness they failed to discern that these sophistries would cause many to question the experiences of the past, and would thus lead to confusion and unbelief.  {AA 580.1} 

As these false doctrines were urged, differences sprang up, and the eyes of many were turned from beholding Jesus as the Author and Finisher of their faith. The discussion of unimportant points of doctrine, and the contemplation of pleasing fables of man's invention, occupied time that should have been spent in proclaiming the gospel. The masses that might have been convicted and converted by a faithful presentation of the truth were left unwarned. Piety was rapidly waning, and Satan seemed about to gain the ascendancy over those who claimed to be followers of Christ." {AA 580.2} 

Those that preach Ron Wyatt theology have already shown a spirit of false worship that takes away from the true worship of Christ. The few that have followed them have now become confused as to what happened at the cross of Calvary 2000 years ago, just as Satan hoped. Those that worship and uplift Wyatt's proven heresy have allowed Satan to distract them from the task at hand so as to preach a message they feel will catapult them into the limelight so as to glorify self. Had they kept their eyes on Jesus Christ alone and sought to glorify Him instead of their own flesh, they "might have shared the burdens of these pioneers" that preach present truth today. They could have been used by the Lord in a mighty way. Now, they are only seen as those that need to repent of the sin of blasphemy.

 QUICK REBUTTAL:  

Ron Wyatt claims the blood of Jesus must be spilled on the earthly ark at the moment of His death. But Hebrews 9:11-12 says, "But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;  Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us."

As we know, Christ Jesus was to offer His blood in the “greater” or “more perfect tabernacle” that was “not made with hands." Or as Paul also put it, “not of this building” that was already on earth, or under Golgotha as Ron Wyatt claimed. To place Ron Wyatt’s words before the written Word of God is to declare the Lord is not worthy of worship on this topic, but Ron Wyatt is. They echo Wyatt’s theology and claim the blood of Jesus must drip on the earthly ark for redemption of sin. But Hebrew 9:11-12 plainly says Ron Wyatt was either led astray by someone - or he simply lied.

Also notice this. The passage plainly says the blood of Jesus was to be offered ONCE into the Holy Place to obtain our eternal redemption. The fact Hebrews 9:12 says this confirms those that preach the blood of Jesus needed to drip onto the man made ark of the covenant are being led astray by Satan so as to be blinded to their duty and all that they need to escape damnation. The Bible says it MUST be spilled in the "more perfect tabernacle" which was "not made with hands." But the key here is the word "ONCE." How can the blood be spilled in the perfect tabernacle AND the imperfect one on earth as well? Using simple 1st grade mathmatics, 1+1 = 2. The Bible says it was only spilled ONCE. But Ron Wyatt and his followers say it must be spilled TWICE. The only way for their theology to work is to remove Hebrews 9:11-12.

Those that follow after the theology of Ron Wyatt also claim the ark in Heaven needs no cleansing at all. They claim the blood of Jesus must be spilled on the earthly ark instead. But looking a little further into the Word we see it says…

• Hebrews 9:22-26, "And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.  It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.  For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:  Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;  For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself."

It clearly says the heavenly ark needed to be cleansed as well. Reason being is, the record books of sin are in the city of New Jerusalem. Notice the prophetic facts on this...

• Daniel 7:9-10, "I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened."
• Revelation 20:12-15, "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.  And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.  And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."

The record of sin is in those books! The truth here is, Ron Wyatt is wrong. The basic reality as penned in Hebrews 9 is the fact that the heavenly ark cannot be cleansed by the blood of oxen or goats. In the heavenly sanctuary, Hebrews 9 says a “better sacrifice” is needed to do this cleansing. And that better sacrifice was the blood of Jesus.

A very sobering thought:

For those embracing the false theology of Ron Wyatt to say Jesus’ blood needs to spill on the ark “made with human hands” quite openly and literally degrade the precious blood of Jesus Christ right down to the level of oxen, goats and sheep. How awful is that? His blood is to be the "better" sacrifice that spills on the "greater" and "more perfect tabernacle." But you are declaring it must mingle with the blood of goats, oxen and sheep on a man made tabernacle? Can't you see what you are saying here? I implore you to repent of this blatant blasphemy and mockery of the Lord Jesus Christ. He shed His blood for you. The least you can do is show respect towards Him.

One more fact to ponder here is that this false theology sets up the people to believe there is a need for a third temple wherein the blood of oxen, goats and lambs should be spilled each and every day once again. This boldly negates the death of Jesus on the cross. And that is exactly what Satan is going for here.

May God have mercy on the souls that trample the Word of God underfoot!

FINAL THOUGHT:

There are some who claim this Wyatt theology is new light, and because the leaders of the SDR church reject this as heresy, they have opted rather to attack the church to try and make themselves appear godly. And yes, this was prophesied and we are given instruction in the Word on how to handle such as these.

1 Timothy 6:3-5, "If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;  He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,  Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself."

It also says in Spirit of Prophecy...

Those Who Pronounce Judgment on the Church
When anyone is drawing apart from the organized body of God’s commandmentkeeping people, when he begins to weigh the church in his human scales and begins to pronounce judgment against them, then you may know that God is not leading him. He is on the wrong track." --Selected Messages vol. 3. page 18:5

ON A DIFFERENT NOTE:

Wyatt was wrong about another ark?

Ron Wyatt claims he found the location of Noah's ark. Notice here what Wyatt says about the location of Noah's ark. Problem with his claims is, many eye witnesses have actually seen the ark still sitting on Mt. Ararat. See this video documenting many of these eye witness accounts. Many years ago I was called to start Presents of God ministry for the Lord. At the start I passed out many tracts regarding prophetic facts regarding Antichrist and other topics. But, my very first tract was all about Noah's ark. In it I document eye witness accounts of many people including Jimmy Carter and many in his administration who, when traveling to Iran during the hostage crisis, everyone on the plane were told to look out the windows of the aircraft as they flew over Mt Ararat to see with their own eyes, Noah's ark. I have pictures and more info about all this in the links below.

• Compilation of new facts on the REAL Noah's Ark
• Photos of Noah's ark
• Noah's flood will be denied near the end (Was Wyatt used of Satan to bring this denial about?)
• Sermon, facts, notes pictures and videos of Noah's ark

With all this well documented evidence confirming Ron Wyatt was wrong about the ark of the covenant AND the ark of Noah, is it not boldly obvious the man was a false teacher? That being said, I implore you to do as the Berean's of old. Do your homework before promoting someone that later on will not only be found to be a false prophet or teacher, promoting them will make you appear to be one that preaches falsehood and confusion.

Ron Wyatt a Con Man?!

Creation in the 21st Century with Dr. Carl Baugh, "Treasures from Mt. Ararat" ( 2015 )

Watch this video. Starting at 9:00 in the video notice how Dr Carl Baugh and another scientist actually examine the site Ron Wyatt claims is the location of Noah's Ark. Not only do they prove it to be a mud flow, they also show how "someone" purposely used a trowel to carve the soil to expose the darker sediment underneath so that when they stood far enough back with a camera, it could appear to be the ribs of a ship. PLUS, not a single iron rivet could be found that Wyatt claimed were all over the place outlining the shape of a ship. The entire area is iron enriched sediment. Hence the reason for the trowling idea. Placing a metal detector down in any position would cause it to sound off making the illusion that a rivot was found possible.

They also show in the video many "mud flows" that if this one was Noah's ark as Wyatt claims, then Noah had a fleet of arks and not just one. In short, Ron Wyatt is not only a false teacher, he appears to be rather dishonest to boot. Or at the very least he is being guided by someone he trusted that is dishonest.
