@ksorbs It's the school system. They have taught everyone younger than 45 that socialism is the answer ....it didn't start right before COVID....had been going on for years
Exodus 13: 14-15. In days to come, when your son asks you, ‘What does this mean?’ say to him, ‘With a mighty hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 15 When Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, the Lord killed the firstborn of both people and animals in Egypt. This is why I sacrifice to the Lord the first male offspring of every womb and redeem each of my firstborn sons.’
John 3:16. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Revelation 21:7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.
Exodus 13:16. And it will be like a sign on your hand and a symbol on your forehead that the Lord brought us out of Egypt with his mighty hand.”
Revelation 13:16. It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,
****. Note even the reference is the same. Chapter 13, verse 16
Exodus 7:1-5. Then the Lord said to Moses, “See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your prophet. 2 You are to say everything I command you, and your brother Aaron is to tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites go out of his country. 3 But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and though I multiply my signs and wonders in Egypt, 4 he will not listen to you. Then I will lay my hand on Egypt and with mighty acts of judgment I will bring out my divisions, my people the Israelites. 5 And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring the Israelites out of it.”
Revelation 13:11-18. Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. 15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666
Exodus 7:3-5. 3 But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and though I multiply my signs and wonders in Egypt, 4 he will not listen to you. Then I will lay my hand on Egypt and with mighty acts of judgment I will bring out my divisions, my people the Israelites. 5 And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring the Israelites out of it.”
Revelation 9:21-21 (after the angels delivered the plaques) 20 The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk. 21 Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.
Exodus 3:7-10. 7 The Lord said, “I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering. 8 So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. 9 And now the cry of the Israelites has reached me, and I have seen the way the Egyptians are oppressing them. 10 So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.”
Revelation 6:9-11. 9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. 10 They called out in a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?” 11 Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers and sisters,[e] were killed just as they had been.
Revelation 21:2-8. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’[b] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.
Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8) What He did then He will do again in a new way. (Isaiah 43:19). Perfect example: The Arc of the Covenant. Watched Indian Jones and real archeologists search for it all my life. Revelation 11:19 says it plain as day. It's in Heaven now and is Christ's throne. Archeologists believe the Bible that it exists, but they don't read beyond that point to see where it is. Hmmmmm. How many other things have I missed this way?
It's not Biblical that the rapture will happen before Daniels 70th week. That's dangerous to speak. We aren't to add anything to The Word. God is the same yesterday, today and forever...Hebrews 13:8. God did not remove the Israelites from Egypt before the plaques, He protected them during the plaques. Exodus 8:4, 11, 21-23. Exodus 9:3-7, 19 & 26.2
@rabbriansamuel Can I just say that I am blessed by your posting. While the devil defies Scripture and spouts theory and twisted truth, you persevere. An actual overcomer. It's a blessing. Thank you.
Studying Exodus and Revelation. Here is a thought.... The Exodus was God's movement of His people from being slaves into the promised land ... A land flowing with milk and honey. Revelation is God freeing His people ...both Jew and the adopted sons and daughters...into the promised land. Hmmm..... Lots of parallels here. God's protection, absolutely. But no rapture.
@rabbriansamuel Yes in the fullness of Jewish.....not as it's known now, but rather completed. No sacrifices, as He has done that. He has fulfilled the law on our behalf. Jesus is Jewish in the complete form that none of us understand as yet.
@imPenny2x It's one of my favorite parts of the way God uses His word! Each tiny detail will show up along the fulfillment of His plan. Easiest example....read about the priestly garments, then the four accounts of the crucifixion. Awe inspiring....Jesus was wearing/held them
@rabbriansamuel Isn't the reconciliation here the intent behind Romans 14:13-23 and 1 Corinthians 8:9-13? It's not about Paul's belief in the need for a sacrifice but rather not causing the others to stumble. The sacrifice was made, Jesus. To sacrifice to God beyond that would as tithing
