  1. Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to the fellowship. We're going

  2. to push forward with in time terms, and this is

  3. one of the best way to study eschatology. We've already

  4. done the world to come. The next on our list

  5. is the Woman of the Apocalypse. Do you think you

  6. know everything there is to know about the Woman on

  7. the Apocalypse? Right? You've read Revelation twelve and you think

  8. you know. If you've been brought up in the West,

  9. you've been told that the woman is well the Jews right,

  10. and the male child is Jesus and all that good stuff.

  11. So that being completely wrong, Yeah, that's completely wrong. That

  12. is one time it was correct because time is isochronal.

  13. That's all I've got to say about this. I heard

  14. I heard another person today talk about isochronology, but they

  15. were fumbling and they they called it symphonic. They said

  16. that these reoccurring events are like a note being replayed

  17. throughout a symphony. That's, of course a joke. Time is isochronal,

  18. that's what God says. So the Woman of the Apocalypse

  19. from a single chapter in the Book of Revelation, chapter twelve.

  20. That prophecy comes from somewhere and if you don't know

  21. that prophecy, you really don't understand Revelation chapter twelve and

  22. the whole chapter. You don't understand the whole chapter. So

  23. it is very challenging when you have to do this

  24. in six minutes. Do I really have time to read

  25. Revelation chapter twelve? Do I really have time to do that? Now?

  26. It is true, this is true. The Revelation Chapter twelve

  27. is only seventeen verses, but there is there is an

  28. eternity in those seven verses. So with that in mind,

  29. I am going to have to read these seventeen verses,

  30. but I'm just going to blow right through them because

  31. I have to for time. I mean, at this point,

  32. I've already burnt four minutes, and this is precious time.

  33. This prophecy is precious. From the new King James version,

  34. Revelation chapter twelve, Now, a great sign appeared in heaven

  35. a woman club with the sun, with the moon under

  36. her feet and on her head a garland at twelve stars. Then,

  37. being with child, she cried out in labor and in

  38. pain to give birth. And another sign appeared in heaven.

  39. Behold a great fiery red dragon, having seven heads and

  40. ten horns and seven diadems on his heads. His tail

  41. drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw

  42. them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman,

  43. who was ready to give birth, to devour her child.

  44. As soon as it was born. She bore a male

  45. child who was to rule the nations with a rod

  46. of iron. And her child was caught up to God

  47. and to his throne. Then the woman fled into the wilderness,

  48. where she has a place prepared by God, that they

  49. should feed her there. One two hundred and sixty days

  50. and war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels

  51. fought with the dragon, and the dragon and his angels

  52. thought that they did not prevail, nor was a place

  53. found for them in heaven any longer. So the great

  54. dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the

  55. devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world. He was

  56. cast to the earth, and his angels were cast with him.

  57. Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now salvation,

  58. strength in the Kingdom of our God and the power

  59. of his Christ have come for the accuser of our brethren,

  60. who has accused them before God day and night, has

  61. been cast down, and they overcame him by the blood

  62. of the lamb and by the word of their testimony.

  63. And they did not love their lives to the death.

  64. Therefore rejoice so heavens, and you who dwell on them.

  65. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea,

  66. for the devil has come down to you, having great wrath,

  67. because he knows that he has a short time now.

  68. When the dragon saw that he had been cast to

  69. the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to

  70. the male child. But the woman was given the two

  71. wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into

  72. the wilderness to her place, where she was nourished for

  73. a time and times in half a time from the

  74. presence of the serpent. So the serpent spewed water out

  75. of his mouth like a flood, after the woman, that

  76. he might cause her to be carried away by the flood.

  77. But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened

  78. its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon

  79. spewed out of its mouth. And the dragon was enraged

  80. with the woman, and he went to make war with

  81. the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of

  82. God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Eternity itself

  83. is impregnated into this chapter. That's plain, simple fact. But

  84. this prophecy comes from somewhere. It absolutely comes from somewhere.

  85. And if you didn't know that, you probably really didn't

  86. understand a lot of what you were just told. So

  87. no one understand this, that this whole thing comes from

  88. a prophecy in Genesis chapter thirty seven. And I will

  89. read to you where this comes from. This is beyond contestation,

  90. this is where this chapter comes from. So Genesis thirty seven,

  91. verse nine. Then he dreams still another dream, and took

  92. cole and told it to his brothers and said, look,

  93. I have dreamed another dream, and this time the sun,

  94. the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me.

  95. So he told it to his father and his brothers,

  96. and his father rebuked him and said, what is this

  97. dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I

  98. and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the

  99. earth before you? And his brothers envied him, but his

  100. father kept the matter in mind. This is where Revelation

  101. chapter twelve comes from. Where it comes from, not a

  102. little bit of it, all of it. So this is

  103. the real problem is getting through these verses because there's

  104. thirty six here, thirty six verses here. But once I

  105. start pointing out things to you, you can't unsee it.

  106. For example, a theme throughout the Bible is ten days

  107. of testing ten times. This comes from the Lord your God.

  108. He says, so in numbers that you have tested me

  109. these ten times. Those ten times are related today in

  110. the Book of Revelation. You should know that. So you

  111. need to know something very important before you go any further.

  112. And believe me, I only have time to share the

  113. Hebrew with you. I do not have time to share

  114. the Greek. Look at the first ten words in this chapter.

  115. I just stopped you dead in your tracks. You thought

  116. you knew everything. You thought that you could open up

  117. your Bible and believe what it says. Because let's open

  118. up the new King James version. When you open it up,

  119. the stanzaheading for this is Joseph dreams of Greatness. This

  120. is absolutely incorrect. That's not what this chapter is about. No,

  121. it's not. It was never about that. The first ten

  122. Hebrew words in this chapter is seven. Seven of them

  123. comes from the first verse, because the first first has

  124. seven words in it in Hebrew. Now this should trigger

  125. a remember answering you about revelation, because there are three

  126. woes right and seven bolts. This equation works the same way.

  127. It's just inverted seven plus three inverted in Revelation to

  128. three plus seven. What is those first ten Hebrew words? Now,

  129. Jacob dwelt in the land where his father was a stranger,

  130. in the land of Canaan. This is the history of

  131. Jacob period period. This chapter is about the history not

  132. of Israel. You are the Israel of God, thus saith

  133. the Lord in the New Testament. So right from the

  134. beginning you should know you're going to find a chapter

  135. with great consternation because this is about Jacob. This was

  136. never about Joseph. It was always the generations in Hebrew

  137. of Jacob. Now, with that in mind, we're gonna start

  138. right here. Picking back up in verse two, Joseph, being

  139. seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers,

  140. and the lad was with the sons of bill Hall

  141. and the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives, and Joseph

  142. brought a bad report of them to his father. We

  143. have problems right here, dead bang. We have problems, not

  144. little problems. We have great, big problems because this should

  145. not be saying what it's saying, because here it says

  146. something different. I thought that bill Haw and Zilpah, I

  147. thought they were concubines. Yes, thus saith the Lord in

  148. other places. However, here they were lameely called Jacob's wives.

  149. So we need to understand just from the beginning, just

  150. from right here, you need to stop dead pan a

  151. verse two and figure out who the matriarchs, who they are,

  152. because there are definitely matriarchs. The problem is when you

  153. look up, you know, online or you look up in commentaries,

  154. who the matriarchs are, they always say Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel

  155. and Leah. No, no they're not. There is four patriarchs

  156. of that you can be sure. The four matriarchs, I'm sorry,

  157. not say patriarchs. The four matriarchs is Leah and her handmaid? Right,

  158. is everybody starting to get the point. That's right? So

  159. it was Leah and Zilpah, Yes, because Zilpah was the

  160. mother of Gaddin Asher, there was Rachel and Oha Ray

  161. Jules handmaid, and she bill Haw was the mother of

  162. Dan and Naptally did you hear what it just said.

  163. The consternation began here with Let's just do the math. Okay,

  164. why did it say that the lad was only with

  165. the sons of Bill Haw and Zilpah. There was two each.

  166. That's a total of four, right, it's total four. That's

  167. very important because later the woman to be mentioned is

  168. not those two, and the important one don't even exist anymore.

  169. We'll get to that here in a little bit. Verse three. Now,

  170. Israel love Joseph more than all his children because he

  171. was the son of his old age. He also made

  172. him a coat of many colors. No, no, he wasn't.

  173. No he wasn't. No, no, no, no, no. Joseph was

  174. not the male child who was the child of his

  175. old age. No, no he wasn't. That was Benjamin. Yes,

  176. yes it was that was Benjamin. That was Benjamin. So

  177. let's keep that in mind. But when his brothers saw

  178. that their father loved him more than all his brothers,

  179. they hated him and could not speak peaceably to him.

  180. Now Joseph had a dream and he told it to

  181. his brothers, and they hated him even more. Let's take pause.

  182. So now we're talking about all the brothers. Are just

  183. the four brothers, the sons of Bill Hall and Nippo.

  184. Good question, huh. Anyway, let's keep going on. So he

  185. said to them, please hear this dream which I've dreamed.

  186. There we were binding sheaves in the field. Then behold

  187. my sheaf arose and stood up, and indeed your sheaves

  188. stood all around and bowed down to my sheaf. And

  189. his brothers said to him, shall you indeed rain over us?

  190. Or shall you indeed have dominion over us? So they

  191. hated him even more for his dreams and for his

  192. words verse nine. Then he dreams still another dream, and

  193. told it to his brothers and said, look, I have

  194. dreamed another dream, and this time the on the moon

  195. and the eleven stars bowed down to me. So he

  196. told it to his father and his brothers. And his

  197. father rebuked him and said, what is this dream that

  198. you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your

  199. brothers indeed come and bowed down to the earth before you?

  200. And his brothers envied him, but his father kept the

  201. matter in mind. Do you know why do you know

  202. why he kept it in mind? I'll tell you I

  203. because what Joseph did just did was pair amount to

  204. commit suicide. You never heard it before, did you? Because

  205. you can't see. You can't see the superstructure of what's

  206. going on. I've already mentioned to you that Joseph was

  207. not the male child of his old age. No, Benjamin

  208. and Laws. The point being, when did Benjamin come about?

  209. That was two chapters earlier. Yeah, Rachel died in Genesis

  210. chapter thirty five. You were obviously supposed to know that

  211. that once that come out of his mouth, and Israel said, oh, really,

  212. I and your mother are going to bound down to you.

  213. Don't you understand where Rachel was. Rachel was in heaven.

  214. Let me say that again. Rachel was in heaven. She

  215. was already dead. She was already dead and gone. Had

  216. anybody told you before? Now that's what was going on

  217. with all these women. That the woman's actually Rachel. She's

  218. dead and gone. That's paramount story. So once you know that,

  219. Revelation chapter twelve takes on a completely different takes on

  220. a completely different form once you understand that the woman

  221. being referenced, particularly in Revelation chapter twelve, is Rachel. She's

  222. the one that's in heaven. She's died before the events.

  223. This is why Israel cook yet or let's say Jacob,

  224. this did say Jacob, and that is true. So I've

  225. got a lot of your attention. Now, how much of

  226. this is going to be included? How much of this

  227. narrative it is Revelation twelve built around, or we're just

  228. getting started verse twelve. Then his brothers went to feed

  229. their flock in Sachem, and Israel said to Joseph, are

  230. not your brothers feeding the flock in Shacham? Come? I

  231. will send you to them. So he said to them,

  232. here I am. Then he said to him, please go

  233. and see if it is well with your brothers and

  234. well with the flocks, and bring back word to me.

  235. So he sent him out to the valley of Hebron,

  236. and he went to Shechem. Okay, how can this go well?

  237. How can this go well? Based on why his brothers

  238. hated him? Take note his brothers hated him verse two

  239. because Joseph had brought a bad report of them to

  240. his father. So there's no way this is going to

  241. go well. And the problem is Israel knows it. Israel

  242. is the one that knows everything. Or shall we say Jacob?

  243. Because this chapter began with this is the genealogies of

  244. Jacob So that's pretty disturbing, right. So Joseph goes out

  245. in the wilderness looking for his brothers. Prophetically, he goes

  246. out into the wilderness looking for well, Israel. I've already

  247. stated this emphatically. Yes, the New Testament loudly preaches to

  248. God spoil that we Christians, in Christ, we are the

  249. Israel of God. So if you don't remember this from Revelation,

  250. I don't know what to say. Because the woman first

  251. flees into the wilderness, So Joseph now has went into

  252. the wilderness. But take notes that the wings of an

  253. eagle is given to her in Revelation, and she is

  254. taken to a place prepared. So Revelation is trying to

  255. point out to you the where he's going is detrimentally important.

  256. So anyway, verse fifteen. Now a certain man found him,

  257. and there he was wandering in the field. And the

  258. man asked him, saying, what are you seeking. So he said,

  259. I am seeking my brothers. Please tell me where they

  260. are feeding their flocks. Then the man said to him,

  261. they have departed. I'm here, for I heard them say,

  262. let this go to Dothan. So Joseph went after his

  263. brothers and found them in Dothan. So the place prepared

  264. here in the parent prophecy. Now I got your attention,

  265. don't you. Now you're beginning to understand that Genesis thirty

  266. seven is the parent prophecy of Revelation Chapter twelve. So

  267. now you can call that place prepared. Now you can

  268. put a name on it. The crazy thing is a

  269. noun can be a person, place, or thing. A ropper

  270. noun can be a person or a place or a thing.

  271. You didn't know that, Sure it is, So let's just

  272. keep going. Now. When they saw him from afar off,

  273. even before he came near to them, they conspired against

  274. him to kill him. Isn't that familiar? Yeah, the dragon

  275. was going to kill the male child before he was

  276. ever born. Right, Prophetically, you could just change the wording

  277. of verse eighteen and just place it with born. You

  278. literally could and come up with the same thing verse nineteen.

  279. Then they said to one another, look, this dreamer is coming.

  280. Remember the woman was in great travail. The male child

  281. was coming. She was a labor Are you not seeing

  282. this now? Because this isn't new, This has been here

  283. for thousands of years Verse twenty. Come, therefore, let us

  284. kill him and cast him into some pit, and we

  285. shall say, some wild beast has devoured him. We shall

  286. see what will become of his dreams. But Ruben heard

  287. of it and delivered him out of their hands, and said,

  288. let us not kill him. And Reuben said to them,

  289. said not blood, but cast him into this pit, which

  290. is in the wilderness, and do not lay a hand

  291. on him, that he might deliver him out of their

  292. hands and bring him back to his father. So it

  293. came to pass, when Joseph had come to his brothers,

  294. that they stripped Joseph of his tunic, the tunic of

  295. many colors that was on him. Then they took him

  296. and cashment to a pit. And the pit was empty,

  297. and there was no water in it. Now, isn't that interesting?

  298. Twenty five? And they sat down to eat a meal.

  299. Then they lifted their eyes and looked, and there was

  300. a company of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead with their camels

  301. bearing spices, balm and myrrh, on their way to carry

  302. them down to Egypt. So Judah said to his brothers,

  303. what profit is there if we kill our brother in

  304. Conceili's blood. Come let us sell him to the Ishmaelites.

  305. And let not our hand be upon him, for here's

  306. our brother and our flesh. And his brothers listened. Then

  307. Midianite traders passed by. So the brothers pulled Joseph up

  308. and lifting a map out of the pit and sold

  309. him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver, and

  310. they took Joseph to Egypt. Then Reuben returned to the pit,

  311. and indeed Joseph was not in the pit, and he

  312. Torre's clothes, and he returned to his brothers and said,

  313. the lattice know more, and where shall I go? Another

  314. death sentence. Ruben knew if he didn't take Joseph back

  315. to Israel, it was a death sentence. But you know,

  316. maybe we should stop right here, right now and take

  317. a prophetic look at Ruben. Ruben is the other main

  318. character in this story, right, What of Ruben? What is

  319. Ruben's prophetic role? Let's go all the way back through Genesis,

  320. chapter thirty of verse fourteen through twenty one. Now, Ruben

  321. when in the days the wheat harvest and found man

  322. Drake's in the field and brought them to his mother Leah.

  323. Then the woman or or I'm sorry, Rachel Then Rachel

  324. said to Leah, please give me some of your son's

  325. man Drakes. But she said to her, is it a

  326. small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would

  327. you take away my son's man Drakes also? And Rachel said,

  328. therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son's

  329. man Drakes. Then Jacob come out of the field in

  330. the evening. Leah went in, went out to meet him

  331. and said, you must come in to me or I

  332. have surely hired you with my son's man Drakes. So

  333. remember the man Drakes in barter here was Rubens. Yes,

  334. yes it was. And God listened to Leah, and she

  335. conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son. Leah said, God

  336. has given me my wages because he has given my

  337. maid to my husband. So she called his name is

  338. a Car. Then Leiah conceived again and poor Jacob a

  339. sixth son. And Leah said God has endowed me with

  340. good endowment. Now my husband will dwell with me because

  341. I have borne him six sons. So she called his

  342. name Zebulin. Afterwards she bore a daughter and called her

  343. name Dinah. So take note, have you been running these numbers?

  344. Remember it said the sons of Bill Hall and Zilpah

  345. Genesis thirty seven. You're supposed to know about Reuben and

  346. the simper fact that reubens Man Drakes bartered and produce

  347. offspring for his mother. This bartering took place. I want

  348. to say it again. I'm we'll say it clean with

  349. the woman Rachel. That's pretty importance. But we're not done.

  350. So Genesis thirty five, Verses sixteen through twenty two. Then

  351. they journeyed from Bethel, and when there was a little

  352. distance to go to Ephraft, Rachel labeled in childbirth, and

  353. she had a hard labor. Now it came to pass,

  354. and she was in hard labor that the midwife said

  355. to her, do not fear, for you will have a

  356. son also. And so it was as her soul was

  357. to before she died, that she called him ben Oni,

  358. but his father called him Benjamin. So Rachel died and

  359. was buried on the way to Ephrat, that is Bethlehem,

  360. and Jacob set a pillar on her grave, which is

  361. the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day. Then Israel

  362. journeyed and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.

  363. And did it happened when Israel dwelt in that land

  364. that Ruben went in lie with Bill Haw, Rachel's handmaid,

  365. his father's uh oh. Now the Hebrew calls Bill Hall

  366. a concubine. That's age sixty three seventy in the strong

  367. Skin cordance, and Israel heard about it. Now the sons

  368. of Jacob were twelve. Of course, Ruben, Now you know

  369. why Rubin said, Oh my goodness, the boy is gone.

  370. I can't return him to Israel. I'm a dead man.

  371. For those of you who've been studying by a prophecy

  372. for twenty years, there is no way you couldn't have

  373. known that the woman from Revelation chapter twelve is obviously Rachel,

  374. and that Ruben is knee deep in this. And I

  375. already know why do you do you let the spirit

  376. speak to the churches. So we've already read gen This

  377. is thirty seven, verses twelve through thirty. But there's something

  378. I need to talk. There's something I need to point

  379. out to you that here incorporated into the text is

  380. something that you probably can't see because to you it's

  381. given a different strongs number. But I assure you it

  382. is the same exact Hebrew word. It's just they changed

  383. their jots and tittles because God took the valves from them.

  384. And when God took the valves from the Hebrew, oh

  385. my goodness, the things that can be done with it

  386. once you have eyes that can see. So take note.

  387. We talked about where the place prepared in this chapter was.

  388. It was called Dothan. Remember there's a great big problem

  389. that Hebrew word Dothan. Okay, that's H. Eighteen eighty six.

  390. The problem is is they play their little games and

  391. they don't tell you that H. Eighteen eighty five is

  392. the same exact Hebrew word. They just changed their dots

  393. and tittles and put an A in it instead of

  394. an O, and say, this is day fan instead of

  395. dough fan. No, no, it's the same name and Hebrew, Oh,

  396. yes it is. And guess who that is? Where is

  397. that name coming from? What name is that? What is

  398. that named Othan? Ladies and gentlemen, I will riddle it

  399. to you, okay. Numbers Chapter twenty six, verses five through eleven.

  400. Rubin was the firstborn of Israel. The children of Reuben

  401. were Hannik, the family of the Hannahkites of Poulu, the

  402. family of the Polites, of Hesron, the family of the Hezronites,

  403. of Karmi, the family of the Harmonites. These are the

  404. families of the Rubenites. These who were numbered of them

  405. were forty three thousand, seven hundred and thirty, and the

  406. son of Pelu was Elab. The sons of the Elab

  407. were Nimul, Dathan, and Abram. These are the Dathan and Abram,

  408. representatives of the congregation who contended with Moses and Aaron

  409. in the company of Korap, which they contended against the Lord,

  410. and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up

  411. together with Aura. When the company died, then fired devour

  412. to two hundred and fifty men, and they became a signed. Nevertheless,

  413. the of Kra did not die. Okay, So when I

  414. immediately saw that Joseph was thrown into a pit where yeah, yeah,

  415. same name. I mean, ladies and gentlemen, you need to

  416. understand this. It's the same name. Joseph was thrown into

  417. the pit in Dotham. It was there at Dotham that

  418. the son of Ruben went into Hades alive. So are

  419. we done connecting the dots? Of course not, of course not,

  420. because we have to go to the last place of Reuben.

  421. So Genesis chapter forty nine, verses three through four, this

  422. is the prophecy about Ruben. Ruben, you are my first born,

  423. my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency

  424. of dignity, and the excellency of power. Unstable as water,

  425. unstable as water, you shall not excel. Why because you

  426. went up to your father's bed, then you defiled it.

  427. He went up to my couch. When did he do

  428. this after Rachel died? Who did he do it? With

  429. Rachel's handmade? So you need to understand that when you

  430. see water, you're already supposed to know. Any sort of

  431. rebellion or the ground opening up or water, that's Ruben.

  432. That's Ruben, was always Ruben. And it was right here,

  433. plain as day in the text if you would just

  434. taken the time to read it in Hebrew. So now

  435. you understand why all these things are being alluded to.

  436. So we need to get back to Genesis chapter thirty seven.

  437. But now you know why I left off with that

  438. verse verse thirty with what Ruben said. And he returned

  439. to his brothers and said, the lad is no more,

  440. and I where shall I go? Now you know? Now

  441. you know Reuben knew that was a death sentence anyway,

  442. Verse thirty one. So they took Joseph's tunic, killed a

  443. kid of the goats, and dipped the tunic in the blood.

  444. Let me stop right there. You know what does this mean?

  445. He returned? Do you know what it means? Remember the

  446. dragon and revelation was cast to the earth right anyway,

  447. So they took Joseph's tunic, killed a kid of the goats,

  448. and dipped it in the tunic in the blood. And

  449. they sent the tunic of many colors. And they brought

  450. it to their father and said, we have found this.

  451. Do you know whether it is your son's tunic or not?

  452. And he recognized it and said it is my son's tunic.

  453. A wild beast has devoured him, without a doubt. Joseph

  454. is torn to pieces. No, no, no, he wasn't torn

  455. to pieces. Joseph was given the wings of an eagle

  456. by the many Knights. He was carried to Egypt. That

  457. is to say, she was removed from Israel. It was

  458. removed from his father. He was not torn up. He

  459. was not killed by the dragon. He was not killed

  460. by the dragon Verse thirty four. Then Jacob I'm sorry.

  461. Why is it all of a sudden Jacob again, Well,

  462. you didn't catch that. Then Jacob tore his clothes, put

  463. sycloth on his waist and mourned for a son many days,

  464. and all his sons and all his daughters arose to

  465. comfort him. But he refused to be comforted, for he said,

  466. for I shall go down to the grave with my

  467. son in mourning. Thus his father wept for him. Now

  468. the Midianites had sold him in Egypt to Potiphar, an

  469. officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard. Well, well, well,

  470. who's Michael? Where did you already forget that tale? Who's Michael?

  471. He's the captain of the host, right, I mean right?

  472. So this thing is for sure. If you thought you

  473. were understanding Revelation chapter twelve, and you didn't know any

  474. of the things that I ascribed to you tonight, you

  475. have a lot more to learn. I don't have time

  476. to cover the Greek that there's no way. But you

  477. can understand now that I've now that I've given you

  478. ears that can hear. Now you understand that no Revelation

  479. chapter twelve isn't built around verses nine and ten of

  480. Genesis thirty seven. It is Genesis nine and thirty seven.

  481. Because when you talk about this dragon unleashing this flood

  482. from its mouth, that's Ruben. Ruben is directly tied not

  483. only with Kiro's rebellion, he is tied directly via the

  484. prophecy about him in Genesis forty nine. Directly he is

  485. called water. He's directly called that. And you should know

  486. that Satan was always going to use agents like this. Now,

  487. the incredible thing is is that once you see it,

  488. you can just how I did it back in the

  489. day was go to the library and print off xerox

  490. copies of both these chapters so I could lay him

  491. side by side. I did that years before I did

  492. the Hebrew, as you can imagine, and took me even

  493. longer still to do this to the Greek. But you

  494. need to understand, You need to understand that the woman

  495. in heaven was always Rachel, and she was never mentioned.

  496. These things are obvious once you see it, but first

  497. you have to see it. But once somebody points it

  498. out to you, you quite simply cannot hide it. You

  499. can't hide it, impossible to hide it. So you know,

  500. interestingly enough, what about Benjamin, Yeah, what about Benjamin. What

  501. is said of Benjamin, because Benjamin is all over Genesis

  502. chapters forty three and forty four, no doubt about it,

  503. all over it, thank no. In the narrative Genesis forty

  504. four twelve, it is pointed out that Benjamin is the youngest.

  505. So there's so much more here, so much more here,

  506. and no doubt about it. There's not enough time to

  507. cover everything, you know what, Let's just drive this home.

  508. Was Joseph, the son of Israel's old age, Genesis forty four,

  509. verse twenty. And we said to my lord, we have

  510. a father, an old man, and a child of his

  511. old age who is young. His brother is dead, and

  512. he alone is left of his mother's children, and his

  513. father loves him. This is being said to Joseph. It's

  514. being said to Joseph. It's being said two Joseph. So

  515. you need to know this. It's the male child in revelation.

  516. That's the price, that was always the prize in this narrative.

  517. It's just that this narrative plays all the way out

  518. through Genesis chapter forty four. But you were supposed to

  519. know that that the male child is the one not mentioned.

  520. It's Benjamin, and you better know this. Joseph here is

  521. from Revelation chapter twelve. That's the rest of her children.

  522. It's just there is only one. And you better don't

  523. understand this. This word here for pitt that we read

  524. in Genesis thirty seven is incredibly important because it is

  525. used of the places extremely prophetically. You need to know that.

  526. You need to know that the Psalms particularly say that

  527. going down to a p it is a reference to dying.

  528. And yes, Israel thought Joseph was dead, but he wasn't

  529. wasn't dead. If you don't have the wherewithal to understand

  530. that Revelation chapter twelve, verse seventeen is talking about those

  531. of the First Resurrection. Well now you do, now you do.

  532. Now you understand that the end time entities are all structured.

  533. They're all right here, even the ratios mentioned in Revelation

  534. chapter twelve, of which I'm not going to talk about

  535. because I got ten minutes left, so I need to

  536. open the floor for questions and comments. And I am

  537. telling you you need to follow my example. If I

  538. was new, I would get a printer or go to

  539. the public library and print off a copy of Genesis

  540. thirty seven and Revelation chapter twelve. Put this side beside,

  541. just with the information that I've given you, especially about

  542. the water. By the way, do you know what Ruben's

  543. name means? Does anybody remember that that's in the Bible too?

  544. Do you remember that? It's pretty important? Extremely important? So

  545. Genesis chapter twenty nine, verse thirty two. So Leah conce

  546. even bore a son, and she called his name Rupen,

  547. for she said, the Lord has surely looked on my affliction. Now,

  548. therefore my husband will love me. So if you didn't

  549. realize why that woman fled into the wilderness, she fled

  550. into the wilderness because she was under what yeah affliction?

  551. And how many of you didn't know that those who

  552. joined Kora in his rebellion with Rubenites when the Bible

  553. plainly said that there is coming a great rebellion and

  554. it's going to occur in the body of Christ. It's

  555. not going to be Muslims. I don't care what your

  556. so called theologians say. Christians will not be persecuted by Muslims.

  557. They won't be persecuted by Buddhist, they won't be persecuted

  558. by atheist. You will be persecuted by the clergy, all right,

  559. now I'm really run a long winded I've burned up

  560. two more minutes. Is there any questions or comments about

  561. this text today?

  562. I just want to say thank you. You just answered

  563. a pile of questions I had.

  564. Well good. I am grateful for that. I am grateful

  565. that God has used me today. That is a beautiful thing.

  566. So thank you for passing that along. But take note,

  567. I didn't answer your questions, did I? I mean, Cherry

  568. for one. You know, just with me, you've heard me

  569. read Revelation chapter twelve over the past eleven years. Let

  570. me just ask you, how many times have you heard

  571. me read it?

  572. I don't know for sure, but I'm sure many times.

  573. But I was just looking at that whole story of

  574. Joseph and Rachel and dote them and check them over

  575. the summer, and I was seeing correlations, but I did

  576. not know how to put them together.

  577. With velabration.

  578. So you just lit that whole thing up for me.

  579. Well good, I'm glad that God used me because I

  580. didn't do it. I mean, you've read these chapters hundreds

  581. of times. It was always there. I was always there.

  582. It's just that well we had the time. It was

  583. a beautiful time right.

  584. Sare amen, there was a beautiful time.

  585. Okay. Anybody else questions or comments, Well, I hope that

  586. was edifying for everybody here. Let me just do this,

  587. going once, going twice, going three times, so I know

  588. there's a whole lot there. I've seen what this does

  589. face to face, and the shock that can ensue standing

  590. around waiting to turn the lights off because people are

  591. still at the tables in their chairs, flipping back and

  592. forth through the Bible. I finally have to say it's

  593. time to go home. You know, I have to work tomorrow.

  594. They don't even realize where everybody went. They didn't even

  595. realize when the class really ended. They were so absorbed

  596. into the Bible, God's Holy Word. So that's a good thing.

  597. So who would like to pray us out of here?

  598. Do I have any volunteers? What everybody in the stay

  599. of shock? I can thank you.

  600. Sherry, Father, God, thank you for this time in your word.

  601. Thank you for your light that shines so greatly. Thank

  602. you for my brother Matthew and his time and his

  603. effort that he puts into spreading the Gospel and sharing

  604. the deep things of the Word with us and with

  605. everybody who is listening. Ask you to be with us,

  606. and go before us, and be our rearguard, and keep

  607. his send your mighty right hand, and keep your light shining,

  608. and your Holy Spirit teaching us and leading us and

  609. guiding us until we meet again in Jesus' name.

  610. Amen and Amen. I got one thing to one more

  611. thing to throw in here. I pointed it out to you.

  612. Reuben said, now that I can't take Joseph back to Israel,

  613. where am I to go? Well, just take note, Satan

  614. was thrown to the earth, he was cast out of heaven.

  615. Just so you know. The next time, ladies and gentlemen,

  616. God bless, God speed,
