S3E22 Fellowship: Woman of the Apocalypse

Transcript
-
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to the fellowship. We're going
-
to push forward with in time terms, and this is
-
one of the best way to study eschatology. We've already
-
done the world to come. The next on our list
-
is the Woman of the Apocalypse. Do you think you
-
know everything there is to know about the Woman on
-
the Apocalypse? Right? You've read Revelation twelve and you think
-
you know. If you've been brought up in the West,
-
you've been told that the woman is well the Jews right,
-
and the male child is Jesus and all that good stuff.
-
So that being completely wrong, Yeah, that's completely wrong. That
-
is one time it was correct because time is isochronal.
-
That's all I've got to say about this. I heard
-
I heard another person today talk about isochronology, but they
-
were fumbling and they they called it symphonic. They said
-
that these reoccurring events are like a note being replayed
-
throughout a symphony. That's, of course a joke. Time is isochronal,
-
that's what God says. So the Woman of the Apocalypse
-
from a single chapter in the Book of Revelation, chapter twelve.
-
That prophecy comes from somewhere and if you don't know
-
that prophecy, you really don't understand Revelation chapter twelve and
-
the whole chapter. You don't understand the whole chapter. So
-
it is very challenging when you have to do this
-
in six minutes. Do I really have time to read
-
Revelation chapter twelve? Do I really have time to do that? Now?
-
It is true, this is true. The Revelation Chapter twelve
-
is only seventeen verses, but there is there is an
-
eternity in those seven verses. So with that in mind,
-
I am going to have to read these seventeen verses,
-
but I'm just going to blow right through them because
-
I have to for time. I mean, at this point,
-
I've already burnt four minutes, and this is precious time.
-
This prophecy is precious. From the new King James version,
-
Revelation chapter twelve, Now, a great sign appeared in heaven
-
a woman club with the sun, with the moon under
-
her feet and on her head a garland at twelve stars. Then,
-
being with child, she cried out in labor and in
-
pain to give birth. And another sign appeared in heaven.
-
Behold a great fiery red dragon, having seven heads and
-
ten horns and seven diadems on his heads. His tail
-
drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw
-
them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman,
-
who was ready to give birth, to devour her child.
-
As soon as it was born. She bore a male
-
child who was to rule the nations with a rod
-
of iron. And her child was caught up to God
-
and to his throne. Then the woman fled into the wilderness,
-
where she has a place prepared by God, that they
-
should feed her there. One two hundred and sixty days
-
and war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels
-
fought with the dragon, and the dragon and his angels
-
thought that they did not prevail, nor was a place
-
found for them in heaven any longer. So the great
-
dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the
-
devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world. He was
-
cast to the earth, and his angels were cast with him.
-
Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now salvation,
-
strength in the Kingdom of our God and the power
-
of his Christ have come for the accuser of our brethren,
-
who has accused them before God day and night, has
-
been cast down, and they overcame him by the blood
-
of the lamb and by the word of their testimony.
-
And they did not love their lives to the death.
-
Therefore rejoice so heavens, and you who dwell on them.
-
Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea,
-
for the devil has come down to you, having great wrath,
-
because he knows that he has a short time now.
-
When the dragon saw that he had been cast to
-
the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to
-
the male child. But the woman was given the two
-
wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into
-
the wilderness to her place, where she was nourished for
-
a time and times in half a time from the
-
presence of the serpent. So the serpent spewed water out
-
of his mouth like a flood, after the woman, that
-
he might cause her to be carried away by the flood.
-
But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened
-
its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon
-
spewed out of its mouth. And the dragon was enraged
-
with the woman, and he went to make war with
-
the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of
-
God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Eternity itself
-
is impregnated into this chapter. That's plain, simple fact. But
-
this prophecy comes from somewhere. It absolutely comes from somewhere.
-
And if you didn't know that, you probably really didn't
-
understand a lot of what you were just told. So
-
no one understand this, that this whole thing comes from
-
a prophecy in Genesis chapter thirty seven. And I will
-
read to you where this comes from. This is beyond contestation,
-
this is where this chapter comes from. So Genesis thirty seven,
-
verse nine. Then he dreams still another dream, and took
-
cole and told it to his brothers and said, look,
-
I have dreamed another dream, and this time the sun,
-
the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me.
-
So he told it to his father and his brothers,
-
and his father rebuked him and said, what is this
-
dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I
-
and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the
-
earth before you? And his brothers envied him, but his
-
father kept the matter in mind. This is where Revelation
-
chapter twelve comes from. Where it comes from, not a
-
little bit of it, all of it. So this is
-
the real problem is getting through these verses because there's
-
thirty six here, thirty six verses here. But once I
-
start pointing out things to you, you can't unsee it.
-
For example, a theme throughout the Bible is ten days
-
of testing ten times. This comes from the Lord your God.
-
He says, so in numbers that you have tested me
-
these ten times. Those ten times are related today in
-
the Book of Revelation. You should know that. So you
-
need to know something very important before you go any further.
-
And believe me, I only have time to share the
-
Hebrew with you. I do not have time to share
-
the Greek. Look at the first ten words in this chapter.
-
I just stopped you dead in your tracks. You thought
-
you knew everything. You thought that you could open up
-
your Bible and believe what it says. Because let's open
-
up the new King James version. When you open it up,
-
the stanzaheading for this is Joseph dreams of Greatness. This
-
is absolutely incorrect. That's not what this chapter is about. No,
-
it's not. It was never about that. The first ten
-
Hebrew words in this chapter is seven. Seven of them
-
comes from the first verse, because the first first has
-
seven words in it in Hebrew. Now this should trigger
-
a remember answering you about revelation, because there are three
-
woes right and seven bolts. This equation works the same way.
-
It's just inverted seven plus three inverted in Revelation to
-
three plus seven. What is those first ten Hebrew words? Now,
-
Jacob dwelt in the land where his father was a stranger,
-
in the land of Canaan. This is the history of
-
Jacob period period. This chapter is about the history not
-
of Israel. You are the Israel of God, thus saith
-
the Lord in the New Testament. So right from the
-
beginning you should know you're going to find a chapter
-
with great consternation because this is about Jacob. This was
-
never about Joseph. It was always the generations in Hebrew
-
of Jacob. Now, with that in mind, we're gonna start
-
right here. Picking back up in verse two, Joseph, being
-
seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers,
-
and the lad was with the sons of bill Hall
-
and the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives, and Joseph
-
brought a bad report of them to his father. We
-
have problems right here, dead bang. We have problems, not
-
little problems. We have great, big problems because this should
-
not be saying what it's saying, because here it says
-
something different. I thought that bill Haw and Zilpah, I
-
thought they were concubines. Yes, thus saith the Lord in
-
other places. However, here they were lameely called Jacob's wives.
-
So we need to understand just from the beginning, just
-
from right here, you need to stop dead pan a
-
verse two and figure out who the matriarchs, who they are,
-
because there are definitely matriarchs. The problem is when you
-
look up, you know, online or you look up in commentaries,
-
who the matriarchs are, they always say Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel
-
and Leah. No, no they're not. There is four patriarchs
-
of that you can be sure. The four matriarchs, I'm sorry,
-
not say patriarchs. The four matriarchs is Leah and her handmaid? Right,
-
is everybody starting to get the point. That's right? So
-
it was Leah and Zilpah, Yes, because Zilpah was the
-
mother of Gaddin Asher, there was Rachel and Oha Ray
-
Jules handmaid, and she bill Haw was the mother of
-
Dan and Naptally did you hear what it just said.
-
The consternation began here with Let's just do the math. Okay,
-
why did it say that the lad was only with
-
the sons of Bill Haw and Zilpah. There was two each.
-
That's a total of four, right, it's total four. That's
-
very important because later the woman to be mentioned is
-
not those two, and the important one don't even exist anymore.
-
We'll get to that here in a little bit. Verse three. Now,
-
Israel love Joseph more than all his children because he
-
was the son of his old age. He also made
-
him a coat of many colors. No, no, he wasn't.
-
No he wasn't. No, no, no, no, no. Joseph was
-
not the male child who was the child of his
-
old age. No, no he wasn't. That was Benjamin. Yes,
-
yes it was that was Benjamin. That was Benjamin. So
-
let's keep that in mind. But when his brothers saw
-
that their father loved him more than all his brothers,
-
they hated him and could not speak peaceably to him.
-
Now Joseph had a dream and he told it to
-
his brothers, and they hated him even more. Let's take pause.
-
So now we're talking about all the brothers. Are just
-
the four brothers, the sons of Bill Hall and Nippo.
-
Good question, huh. Anyway, let's keep going on. So he
-
said to them, please hear this dream which I've dreamed.
-
There we were binding sheaves in the field. Then behold
-
my sheaf arose and stood up, and indeed your sheaves
-
stood all around and bowed down to my sheaf. And
-
his brothers said to him, shall you indeed rain over us?
-
Or shall you indeed have dominion over us? So they
-
hated him even more for his dreams and for his
-
words verse nine. Then he dreams still another dream, and
-
told it to his brothers and said, look, I have
-
dreamed another dream, and this time the on the moon
-
and the eleven stars bowed down to me. So he
-
told it to his father and his brothers. And his
-
father rebuked him and said, what is this dream that
-
you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your
-
brothers indeed come and bowed down to the earth before you?
-
And his brothers envied him, but his father kept the
-
matter in mind. Do you know why do you know
-
why he kept it in mind? I'll tell you I
-
because what Joseph did just did was pair amount to
-
commit suicide. You never heard it before, did you? Because
-
you can't see. You can't see the superstructure of what's
-
going on. I've already mentioned to you that Joseph was
-
not the male child of his old age. No, Benjamin
-
and Laws. The point being, when did Benjamin come about?
-
That was two chapters earlier. Yeah, Rachel died in Genesis
-
chapter thirty five. You were obviously supposed to know that
-
that once that come out of his mouth, and Israel said, oh, really,
-
I and your mother are going to bound down to you.
-
Don't you understand where Rachel was. Rachel was in heaven.
-
Let me say that again. Rachel was in heaven. She
-
was already dead. She was already dead and gone. Had
-
anybody told you before? Now that's what was going on
-
with all these women. That the woman's actually Rachel. She's
-
dead and gone. That's paramount story. So once you know that,
-
Revelation chapter twelve takes on a completely different takes on
-
a completely different form once you understand that the woman
-
being referenced, particularly in Revelation chapter twelve, is Rachel. She's
-
the one that's in heaven. She's died before the events.
-
This is why Israel cook yet or let's say Jacob,
-
this did say Jacob, and that is true. So I've
-
got a lot of your attention. Now, how much of
-
this is going to be included? How much of this
-
narrative it is Revelation twelve built around, or we're just
-
getting started verse twelve. Then his brothers went to feed
-
their flock in Sachem, and Israel said to Joseph, are
-
not your brothers feeding the flock in Shacham? Come? I
-
will send you to them. So he said to them,
-
here I am. Then he said to him, please go
-
and see if it is well with your brothers and
-
well with the flocks, and bring back word to me.
-
So he sent him out to the valley of Hebron,
-
and he went to Shechem. Okay, how can this go well?
-
How can this go well? Based on why his brothers
-
hated him? Take note his brothers hated him verse two
-
because Joseph had brought a bad report of them to
-
his father. So there's no way this is going to
-
go well. And the problem is Israel knows it. Israel
-
is the one that knows everything. Or shall we say Jacob?
-
Because this chapter began with this is the genealogies of
-
Jacob So that's pretty disturbing, right. So Joseph goes out
-
in the wilderness looking for his brothers. Prophetically, he goes
-
out into the wilderness looking for well, Israel. I've already
-
stated this emphatically. Yes, the New Testament loudly preaches to
-
God spoil that we Christians, in Christ, we are the
-
Israel of God. So if you don't remember this from Revelation,
-
I don't know what to say. Because the woman first
-
flees into the wilderness, So Joseph now has went into
-
the wilderness. But take notes that the wings of an
-
eagle is given to her in Revelation, and she is
-
taken to a place prepared. So Revelation is trying to
-
point out to you the where he's going is detrimentally important.
-
So anyway, verse fifteen. Now a certain man found him,
-
and there he was wandering in the field. And the
-
man asked him, saying, what are you seeking. So he said,
-
I am seeking my brothers. Please tell me where they
-
are feeding their flocks. Then the man said to him,
-
they have departed. I'm here, for I heard them say,
-
let this go to Dothan. So Joseph went after his
-
brothers and found them in Dothan. So the place prepared
-
here in the parent prophecy. Now I got your attention,
-
don't you. Now you're beginning to understand that Genesis thirty
-
seven is the parent prophecy of Revelation Chapter twelve. So
-
now you can call that place prepared. Now you can
-
put a name on it. The crazy thing is a
-
noun can be a person, place, or thing. A ropper
-
noun can be a person or a place or a thing.
-
You didn't know that, Sure it is, So let's just
-
keep going. Now. When they saw him from afar off,
-
even before he came near to them, they conspired against
-
him to kill him. Isn't that familiar? Yeah, the dragon
-
was going to kill the male child before he was
-
ever born. Right, Prophetically, you could just change the wording
-
of verse eighteen and just place it with born. You
-
literally could and come up with the same thing verse nineteen.
-
Then they said to one another, look, this dreamer is coming.
-
Remember the woman was in great travail. The male child
-
was coming. She was a labor Are you not seeing
-
this now? Because this isn't new, This has been here
-
for thousands of years Verse twenty. Come, therefore, let us
-
kill him and cast him into some pit, and we
-
shall say, some wild beast has devoured him. We shall
-
see what will become of his dreams. But Ruben heard
-
of it and delivered him out of their hands, and said,
-
let us not kill him. And Reuben said to them,
-
said not blood, but cast him into this pit, which
-
is in the wilderness, and do not lay a hand
-
on him, that he might deliver him out of their
-
hands and bring him back to his father. So it
-
came to pass, when Joseph had come to his brothers,
-
that they stripped Joseph of his tunic, the tunic of
-
many colors that was on him. Then they took him
-
and cashment to a pit. And the pit was empty,
-
and there was no water in it. Now, isn't that interesting?
-
Twenty five? And they sat down to eat a meal.
-
Then they lifted their eyes and looked, and there was
-
a company of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead with their camels
-
bearing spices, balm and myrrh, on their way to carry
-
them down to Egypt. So Judah said to his brothers,
-
what profit is there if we kill our brother in
-
Conceili's blood. Come let us sell him to the Ishmaelites.
-
And let not our hand be upon him, for here's
-
our brother and our flesh. And his brothers listened. Then
-
Midianite traders passed by. So the brothers pulled Joseph up
-
and lifting a map out of the pit and sold
-
him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver, and
-
they took Joseph to Egypt. Then Reuben returned to the pit,
-
and indeed Joseph was not in the pit, and he
-
Torre's clothes, and he returned to his brothers and said,
-
the lattice know more, and where shall I go? Another
-
death sentence. Ruben knew if he didn't take Joseph back
-
to Israel, it was a death sentence. But you know,
-
maybe we should stop right here, right now and take
-
a prophetic look at Ruben. Ruben is the other main
-
character in this story, right, What of Ruben? What is
-
Ruben's prophetic role? Let's go all the way back through Genesis,
-
chapter thirty of verse fourteen through twenty one. Now, Ruben
-
when in the days the wheat harvest and found man
-
Drake's in the field and brought them to his mother Leah.
-
Then the woman or or I'm sorry, Rachel Then Rachel
-
said to Leah, please give me some of your son's
-
man Drakes. But she said to her, is it a
-
small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would
-
you take away my son's man Drakes also? And Rachel said,
-
therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son's
-
man Drakes. Then Jacob come out of the field in
-
the evening. Leah went in, went out to meet him
-
and said, you must come in to me or I
-
have surely hired you with my son's man Drakes. So
-
remember the man Drakes in barter here was Rubens. Yes,
-
yes it was. And God listened to Leah, and she
-
conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son. Leah said, God
-
has given me my wages because he has given my
-
maid to my husband. So she called his name is
-
a Car. Then Leiah conceived again and poor Jacob a
-
sixth son. And Leah said God has endowed me with
-
good endowment. Now my husband will dwell with me because
-
I have borne him six sons. So she called his
-
name Zebulin. Afterwards she bore a daughter and called her
-
name Dinah. So take note, have you been running these numbers?
-
Remember it said the sons of Bill Hall and Zilpah
-
Genesis thirty seven. You're supposed to know about Reuben and
-
the simper fact that reubens Man Drakes bartered and produce
-
offspring for his mother. This bartering took place. I want
-
to say it again. I'm we'll say it clean with
-
the woman Rachel. That's pretty importance. But we're not done.
-
So Genesis thirty five, Verses sixteen through twenty two. Then
-
they journeyed from Bethel, and when there was a little
-
distance to go to Ephraft, Rachel labeled in childbirth, and
-
she had a hard labor. Now it came to pass,
-
and she was in hard labor that the midwife said
-
to her, do not fear, for you will have a
-
son also. And so it was as her soul was
-
to before she died, that she called him ben Oni,
-
but his father called him Benjamin. So Rachel died and
-
was buried on the way to Ephrat, that is Bethlehem,
-
and Jacob set a pillar on her grave, which is
-
the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day. Then Israel
-
journeyed and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.
-
And did it happened when Israel dwelt in that land
-
that Ruben went in lie with Bill Haw, Rachel's handmaid,
-
his father's uh oh. Now the Hebrew calls Bill Hall
-
a concubine. That's age sixty three seventy in the strong
-
Skin cordance, and Israel heard about it. Now the sons
-
of Jacob were twelve. Of course, Ruben, Now you know
-
why Rubin said, Oh my goodness, the boy is gone.
-
I can't return him to Israel. I'm a dead man.
-
For those of you who've been studying by a prophecy
-
for twenty years, there is no way you couldn't have
-
known that the woman from Revelation chapter twelve is obviously Rachel,
-
and that Ruben is knee deep in this. And I
-
already know why do you do you let the spirit
-
speak to the churches. So we've already read gen This
-
is thirty seven, verses twelve through thirty. But there's something
-
I need to talk. There's something I need to point
-
out to you that here incorporated into the text is
-
something that you probably can't see because to you it's
-
given a different strongs number. But I assure you it
-
is the same exact Hebrew word. It's just they changed
-
their jots and tittles because God took the valves from them.
-
And when God took the valves from the Hebrew, oh
-
my goodness, the things that can be done with it
-
once you have eyes that can see. So take note.
-
We talked about where the place prepared in this chapter was.
-
It was called Dothan. Remember there's a great big problem
-
that Hebrew word Dothan. Okay, that's H. Eighteen eighty six.
-
The problem is is they play their little games and
-
they don't tell you that H. Eighteen eighty five is
-
the same exact Hebrew word. They just changed their dots
-
and tittles and put an A in it instead of
-
an O, and say, this is day fan instead of
-
dough fan. No, no, it's the same name and Hebrew, Oh,
-
yes it is. And guess who that is? Where is
-
that name coming from? What name is that? What is
-
that named Othan? Ladies and gentlemen, I will riddle it
-
to you, okay. Numbers Chapter twenty six, verses five through eleven.
-
Rubin was the firstborn of Israel. The children of Reuben
-
were Hannik, the family of the Hannahkites of Poulu, the
-
family of the Polites, of Hesron, the family of the Hezronites,
-
of Karmi, the family of the Harmonites. These are the
-
families of the Rubenites. These who were numbered of them
-
were forty three thousand, seven hundred and thirty, and the
-
son of Pelu was Elab. The sons of the Elab
-
were Nimul, Dathan, and Abram. These are the Dathan and Abram,
-
representatives of the congregation who contended with Moses and Aaron
-
in the company of Korap, which they contended against the Lord,
-
and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up
-
together with Aura. When the company died, then fired devour
-
to two hundred and fifty men, and they became a signed. Nevertheless,
-
the of Kra did not die. Okay, So when I
-
immediately saw that Joseph was thrown into a pit where yeah, yeah,
-
same name. I mean, ladies and gentlemen, you need to
-
understand this. It's the same name. Joseph was thrown into
-
the pit in Dotham. It was there at Dotham that
-
the son of Ruben went into Hades alive. So are
-
we done connecting the dots? Of course not, of course not,
-
because we have to go to the last place of Reuben.
-
So Genesis chapter forty nine, verses three through four, this
-
is the prophecy about Ruben. Ruben, you are my first born,
-
my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency
-
of dignity, and the excellency of power. Unstable as water,
-
unstable as water, you shall not excel. Why because you
-
went up to your father's bed, then you defiled it.
-
He went up to my couch. When did he do
-
this after Rachel died? Who did he do it? With
-
Rachel's handmade? So you need to understand that when you
-
see water, you're already supposed to know. Any sort of
-
rebellion or the ground opening up or water, that's Ruben.
-
That's Ruben, was always Ruben. And it was right here,
-
plain as day in the text if you would just
-
taken the time to read it in Hebrew. So now
-
you understand why all these things are being alluded to.
-
So we need to get back to Genesis chapter thirty seven.
-
But now you know why I left off with that
-
verse verse thirty with what Ruben said. And he returned
-
to his brothers and said, the lad is no more,
-
and I where shall I go? Now you know? Now
-
you know Reuben knew that was a death sentence anyway,
-
Verse thirty one. So they took Joseph's tunic, killed a
-
kid of the goats, and dipped the tunic in the blood.
-
Let me stop right there. You know what does this mean?
-
He returned? Do you know what it means? Remember the
-
dragon and revelation was cast to the earth right anyway,
-
So they took Joseph's tunic, killed a kid of the goats,
-
and dipped it in the tunic in the blood. And
-
they sent the tunic of many colors. And they brought
-
it to their father and said, we have found this.
-
Do you know whether it is your son's tunic or not?
-
And he recognized it and said it is my son's tunic.
-
A wild beast has devoured him, without a doubt. Joseph
-
is torn to pieces. No, no, no, he wasn't torn
-
to pieces. Joseph was given the wings of an eagle
-
by the many Knights. He was carried to Egypt. That
-
is to say, she was removed from Israel. It was
-
removed from his father. He was not torn up. He
-
was not killed by the dragon. He was not killed
-
by the dragon Verse thirty four. Then Jacob I'm sorry.
-
Why is it all of a sudden Jacob again, Well,
-
you didn't catch that. Then Jacob tore his clothes, put
-
sycloth on his waist and mourned for a son many days,
-
and all his sons and all his daughters arose to
-
comfort him. But he refused to be comforted, for he said,
-
for I shall go down to the grave with my
-
son in mourning. Thus his father wept for him. Now
-
the Midianites had sold him in Egypt to Potiphar, an
-
officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard. Well, well, well,
-
who's Michael? Where did you already forget that tale? Who's Michael?
-
He's the captain of the host, right, I mean right?
-
So this thing is for sure. If you thought you
-
were understanding Revelation chapter twelve, and you didn't know any
-
of the things that I ascribed to you tonight, you
-
have a lot more to learn. I don't have time
-
to cover the Greek that there's no way. But you
-
can understand now that I've now that I've given you
-
ears that can hear. Now you understand that no Revelation
-
chapter twelve isn't built around verses nine and ten of
-
Genesis thirty seven. It is Genesis nine and thirty seven.
-
Because when you talk about this dragon unleashing this flood
-
from its mouth, that's Ruben. Ruben is directly tied not
-
only with Kiro's rebellion, he is tied directly via the
-
prophecy about him in Genesis forty nine. Directly he is
-
called water. He's directly called that. And you should know
-
that Satan was always going to use agents like this. Now,
-
the incredible thing is is that once you see it,
-
you can just how I did it back in the
-
day was go to the library and print off xerox
-
copies of both these chapters so I could lay him
-
side by side. I did that years before I did
-
the Hebrew, as you can imagine, and took me even
-
longer still to do this to the Greek. But you
-
need to understand, You need to understand that the woman
-
in heaven was always Rachel, and she was never mentioned.
-
These things are obvious once you see it, but first
-
you have to see it. But once somebody points it
-
out to you, you quite simply cannot hide it. You
-
can't hide it, impossible to hide it. So you know,
-
interestingly enough, what about Benjamin, Yeah, what about Benjamin. What
-
is said of Benjamin, because Benjamin is all over Genesis
-
chapters forty three and forty four, no doubt about it,
-
all over it, thank no. In the narrative Genesis forty
-
four twelve, it is pointed out that Benjamin is the youngest.
-
So there's so much more here, so much more here,
-
and no doubt about it. There's not enough time to
-
cover everything, you know what, Let's just drive this home.
-
Was Joseph, the son of Israel's old age, Genesis forty four,
-
verse twenty. And we said to my lord, we have
-
a father, an old man, and a child of his
-
old age who is young. His brother is dead, and
-
he alone is left of his mother's children, and his
-
father loves him. This is being said to Joseph. It's
-
being said to Joseph. It's being said two Joseph. So
-
you need to know this. It's the male child in revelation.
-
That's the price, that was always the prize in this narrative.
-
It's just that this narrative plays all the way out
-
through Genesis chapter forty four. But you were supposed to
-
know that that the male child is the one not mentioned.
-
It's Benjamin, and you better know this. Joseph here is
-
from Revelation chapter twelve. That's the rest of her children.
-
It's just there is only one. And you better don't
-
understand this. This word here for pitt that we read
-
in Genesis thirty seven is incredibly important because it is
-
used of the places extremely prophetically. You need to know that.
-
You need to know that the Psalms particularly say that
-
going down to a p it is a reference to dying.
-
And yes, Israel thought Joseph was dead, but he wasn't
-
wasn't dead. If you don't have the wherewithal to understand
-
that Revelation chapter twelve, verse seventeen is talking about those
-
of the First Resurrection. Well now you do, now you do.
-
Now you understand that the end time entities are all structured.
-
They're all right here, even the ratios mentioned in Revelation
-
chapter twelve, of which I'm not going to talk about
-
because I got ten minutes left, so I need to
-
open the floor for questions and comments. And I am
-
telling you you need to follow my example. If I
-
was new, I would get a printer or go to
-
the public library and print off a copy of Genesis
-
thirty seven and Revelation chapter twelve. Put this side beside,
-
just with the information that I've given you, especially about
-
the water. By the way, do you know what Ruben's
-
name means? Does anybody remember that that's in the Bible too?
-
Do you remember that? It's pretty important? Extremely important? So
-
Genesis chapter twenty nine, verse thirty two. So Leah conce
-
even bore a son, and she called his name Rupen,
-
for she said, the Lord has surely looked on my affliction. Now,
-
therefore my husband will love me. So if you didn't
-
realize why that woman fled into the wilderness, she fled
-
into the wilderness because she was under what yeah affliction?
-
And how many of you didn't know that those who
-
joined Kora in his rebellion with Rubenites when the Bible
-
plainly said that there is coming a great rebellion and
-
it's going to occur in the body of Christ. It's
-
not going to be Muslims. I don't care what your
-
so called theologians say. Christians will not be persecuted by Muslims.
-
They won't be persecuted by Buddhist, they won't be persecuted
-
by atheist. You will be persecuted by the clergy, all right,
-
now I'm really run a long winded I've burned up
-
two more minutes. Is there any questions or comments about
-
this text today?
-
I just want to say thank you. You just answered
-
a pile of questions I had.
-
Well good. I am grateful for that. I am grateful
-
that God has used me today. That is a beautiful thing.
-
So thank you for passing that along. But take note,
-
I didn't answer your questions, did I? I mean, Cherry
-
for one. You know, just with me, you've heard me
-
read Revelation chapter twelve over the past eleven years. Let
-
me just ask you, how many times have you heard
-
me read it?
-
I don't know for sure, but I'm sure many times.
-
But I was just looking at that whole story of
-
Joseph and Rachel and dote them and check them over
-
the summer, and I was seeing correlations, but I did
-
not know how to put them together.
-
With velabration.
-
So you just lit that whole thing up for me.
-
Well good, I'm glad that God used me because I
-
didn't do it. I mean, you've read these chapters hundreds
-
of times. It was always there. I was always there.
-
It's just that well we had the time. It was
-
a beautiful time right.
-
Sare amen, there was a beautiful time.
-
Okay. Anybody else questions or comments, Well, I hope that
-
was edifying for everybody here. Let me just do this,
-
going once, going twice, going three times, so I know
-
there's a whole lot there. I've seen what this does
-
face to face, and the shock that can ensue standing
-
around waiting to turn the lights off because people are
-
still at the tables in their chairs, flipping back and
-
forth through the Bible. I finally have to say it's
-
time to go home. You know, I have to work tomorrow.
-
They don't even realize where everybody went. They didn't even
-
realize when the class really ended. They were so absorbed
-
into the Bible, God's Holy Word. So that's a good thing.
-
So who would like to pray us out of here?
-
Do I have any volunteers? What everybody in the stay
-
of shock? I can thank you.
-
Sherry, Father, God, thank you for this time in your word.
-
Thank you for your light that shines so greatly. Thank
-
you for my brother Matthew and his time and his
-
effort that he puts into spreading the Gospel and sharing
-
the deep things of the Word with us and with
-
everybody who is listening. Ask you to be with us,
-
and go before us, and be our rearguard, and keep
-
his send your mighty right hand, and keep your light shining,
-
and your Holy Spirit teaching us and leading us and
-
guiding us until we meet again in Jesus' name.
-
Amen and Amen. I got one thing to one more
-
thing to throw in here. I pointed it out to you.
-
Reuben said, now that I can't take Joseph back to Israel,
-
where am I to go? Well, just take note, Satan
-
was thrown to the earth, he was cast out of heaven.
-
Just so you know. The next time, ladies and gentlemen,
-
God bless, God speed,
