The thing that has been, shall be. History will repeat itself (Ecclesiastes 1:9)
In Genesis 30:1-6, OT Dan's birth was rooted in impatience for children & an extra wife (Bilhah) being given to Jacob.
History has repeated itself.
New testament Dan is also rooted in impatience for children. Childbirth in the NT is allegory for Christ's return (1 Thessalonians 5:3). So who is it today that is impatient for His return (children)?
The people who claim that He is returning before the Bible says He is. And just like with OT Dan, NT Dan has an "extra wife" involved in their story. Because their version of Jesus has a pre rapture gentile bride & a post rapture jewish bride. An extra wife given.
In Joshua 19:47, OT Dan rejected their allotment in Israel because their coasts went out too little for them & they instead conquered a large land of plenty (Judges 18:10) inhabited by Zidonian immigrants (Judges 18:7 & 28) where they set up a false religion. Zidon is the homeland of Jezebel. This land of plenty had no want of anything that was in the earth (Judges 18:10). That sounds an awful lot like Laodicea (Revelation 3:17) & America.
History has repeated itself.
New testament Dan rejects their allotment in Israel by teaching that the church is separate from Israel. They do so because the law of God makes their coasts go out too little for them. Hence the reason NT Dan teaches various levels of lawlessness throughout their factions. NT Dan's doctrine has conquered (It's most popular there) a large land of plenty inhabited by immigrants where they have set up a false religion. It has also conquered the politics & foreign policy of this land (AIPAC). This land is dominated by feminism (Jezebel; Zidonian).
Isaiah 46:10, God declares the end from the beginning. In Genesis 49:17, God declares new testament Dan's end (serpent/adder) from the beginning of the verse & He declares their beginning (horse rider falls) at the end of that verse.
In 1827, John Nelson Darby fell from a horse & was seriously injured. During this time, he was developing his Danite doctrine that sees the church reject it's allotment in Israel just as OT Dan rejected physical land in Israel. The horse rider who fell at the end of the verse is NT Dan's beginning.
In Numbers 22, the wicked prophet Baalam was riding a donkey when his foot got crushed. John Nelson Darby fell from the horse & his leg was crushed. He later gained noteriety as a "prophecy expert" after giving a series of lectures in Geneva Switzerland, area code 22.
The large land of plenty that new testament Dan has conquered is represented by snakes (serpent/adder). The Gadsden flag is a favorite among many NT Danites who are overwhelmingly right wing politically. So too is the "Join Or Die" broken serpent political cartoon, as many NT Danites often wax nostalgic over the founders. Many NT Danites voted for Trump, & his favorite poem is "The Snake". NT Dan's end (serpent/American) is foretold at the beginning of Genesis 49:17.
Deuteronomy 33:22; Dan is a lion's whelp (cub). Dan, children (cub) of Satan (1 Peter 5:8). Dan, children (cub) of Britain (lion). America came out of Britain. John Nelson Darby, was from Ireland which was then part of the UK. Dan shall leap from Bashan...John Nelson Darby's family estate was called Leap Castle. Psalm 68:15, God's hill is like a hill of Bashan. NT Dan leaps away from it.
In Judges 18's story of OT Dan's conquest of that large land of plenty (Laish), the words "six hundred" appear 3 times in that chapter; verses 11, 16, & 17. 600+600+600 = 1800; John Nelson Darby's birth year is 1800.
Darby broke away from the Plymouth Brethren after infighting & started a group known as the "Exclusive Brethren". In Revelation 7, new testament Dan is the "excluded brethren" who have no inheritance (salvation》Hebrews 1:14) in the true promised land above.

@stockmom Wait til cold weather. Set a box trap. Kill & dress. Boil low & slow. Separate out bones. Cook meat with chicken broth, lots of butter & onion, salt, & black pepper. Cook down until like a thick gravy. Add to rice or mash taters. Also works good with just biscuits.
@italiathetruth You ever notice how the pre trib camp has a disproportionate amount of females online who constantly spread their non-sense around? You don't find that in any other eschatology group. And yet, many of their churches insist on women being quiet. It's wild.
@Austin_Mathew_ The tithe was (mostly) for "upkeep" of the priests. In the NT, we're all kings & priests in Christ. Which means, whatever you donate, should go directly to a struggling brother or sister, NOT some greedy hireling looking to build his own little kingdom & legacy.
Pastor 1st Century: We have not seen Demetrius
for three weeks! Is he ill? Did the Romans get him? We must find out!
Pastor Today: How can I use oratory to get this audience to think what they're supposed to think and feel what they're supposed to feel?
Pastor Today II: Hmmm, haven't seen what's-his-face around here for a long time. He came here for years. I'm sure we've got all his contact information in the church database, whoever he is. Oh well, committee meeting coming up.
