BEHOLD, THE DAY OF THE LORD COMETH...

 

                                        THE LAST BATTLE UPON CHRIST'S RETURN.

Zechariah 14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.

SATAN (ANTICHRIST=INSTEAD OF CHRIST IN THE GREEK) IS GOING TO TAKE JERUSALEM.

14:2  For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the People shall not be cut off from the city.

HE IS REFERRING TO THE YET FUTURE AND FINAL SIEGE OF JERUSALEM.

THE PEOPLE ARE TAKEN SPIRITUALLY BY SATAN.

14:3  Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when He fought in the day of the battle.

THIS IS THE FINAL BATTLE (ARMAGEDDON) WHEN HE RETURNS.

IT'S THE OVERTHROW OF SATAN.CHRIST WILL DESTROY JERUSALEM AND THE SURROUNDED AREAS BECAUSE THE UNCLEAN WAS THERE.

NOT EVEN ONE STONE WILL BE STANDING.

MAKE A NOTE OF MATT. 24:2.

14:4  And His feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave (OPEN) in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

HE WILL DESTROY IT COMPLETELY.

14:5  And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Ahaz (A NEW PLACE, YET TO HAVE THIS NAME, AT ONE EXTREMITY OF THE VALLEY): yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with Thee.

REFERRING TO AMOS 1:1.

IT WAS A TRAGIC EARTHQUAKE AND THEY REMEMBERED IT EVEN AFTER THE CAPTIVITY.

THE MISGUIDED ONES (THE ONES WHO WORSHIPPED SATAN UNKNOWINGLY THINKING HE WAS JESUS) WILL BE RUNNING TOWARD THE MOUNTAINS WITH PARALYZING FEAR (REV.6:15-17).

14:6   And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:

HIS BRIGHTNESS WILL LIGHT THE WORLD.

14:7  But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.

IT'S GOING TO BE THE SAME ALL THE TIME.

THERE IS NO LIGHT OR DARKNESS BECAUSE WE ARE ALL CHANGED INTO OUR SPIRITUAL BODY, IN A TWINKLING OF AN EYE (I COR. 15:51-53).

14:8  And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out of Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea (MEDITERRANEAN SEA): in summer and in winter shall it be.

THESE WATERS ARE FRESH, RUNNING, OR PERENNIAL WATERS. 

THESE ARE THE WATERS OF EZEKIEL 47, THE MILLENNIUM AGE (CHRIST'S THOUSAND YEAR REIGN).

14:9  And the LORD shall be King over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and His name one.

ALL MANMADE GOVERNMENTS WILL CEASE TO EXIST.

CHRIST WILL BE THE KING OF KINGS AND THE LORD OF LORDS.

14:10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba (TO THE NORTH) to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel (WHOM GOD GRACIOUS GAVE) unto the King's winepresses.

ALL THE WAY AROUND THE WALL.

14:11  And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.

THERE IS STILL GOING TO BE FREE WILL IN THE MILLENNIUM.

IT WILL BE SAFE AND SECURE BECAUSE THE EVIL ONE WILL BE LOCKED AWAY.

WE ARE ALSO IN OUR SPIRITUAL BODIES. NO MORE FLESH AGE.

SATAN WILL BE BOUND FOR A THOUSAND YEARS AND HE WON'T BE ABLE TO INFLUENCE ANYONE (REV. 20:1). BUT HE WILL BE RELEASED AGAIN AFTER THE THOUSAND YEAR TEACHING PERIOD (EZEKIEL 44) FOR A SHORT TIME (REV. 20) TO TEST THE PEOPLE AGAIN. AFTERWARDS IT'S JUDGMENT TIME.

GOD BLESS

THE VOICE FROM THE TEMPLE

                                                     THE VOICE ON THE TEMPLE.

                             GOD COMPARES HIS THRONE WITH THE EARTHLY KING.

Isaiah 6:1  In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the LORD sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple.

THE EARTHLY KING DIED AND GOD IS ON THE THRONE.

6:2  Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face (SIGN OF HUMILITY), and with twain he covered his feet (SIGN OF RESPECT), and with twain he did fly (RUN AND HE WAS PRAISING GOD).

THE SERAPHIMS - CELESTIAL BEINGS THAT PROTECT OR MINISTER GOD.

6:3  And one cried unto another, and said, "Holy, holy, holy (FOR INTENSE AND SOLEMN EMPHASIS.), is the LORD of hosts : the whole earth is full of His glory."

6:4  And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.

THE VERY PRESENSE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.

6:5  Then said I, "Woe is me ! for I am undone (DUMB, OR LOST. THE ESSENSE OF TRUE CONVICTION); because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a People of unclean lips : for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts."

ISAIAH FELT UNWORTHY AFTER HE SAW CHRIST.

6:6  Then flew (RUN) one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar (LIKE SITTING BY THE FIRE PLACE):

6:7  And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, "Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged (COVERED, ATONED)."

6:8  Also I heard the voice of the LORD, saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us (IN EDITION 1611 THIS WAS "I SAID".)?" Then said I, "Here am I; send me."

VOICE= THIS IS THE VOICE FROM THE TEMPLE CONCERNING THE "SCATTERING", CORRESPONDING WITH 40:3-6, WHICH IS THE VOICE FROM THE WILDERNESS CONCERNING THE "GATHERING".

WHOM SHALL I SEND? = THIS WAS NOT ISAIAH'S ORIGINAL COMMISSION TO PROPHESY, BUT HIS SPECIAL COMMISSION FOR THIS GREAT DISPENSATIONAL PROPHECY.

6:9  And He said, "Go and tell this People, 'Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.'

YOU JUST DON'T GET IT.

6:10  Make the heart of this People fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart (INNER SELF), and convert, and be healed."

DECLARE THAT THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE WILL BE FAT. ISAIAH COULD DO NO MORE. A COMMON HEBREW IDIOM.

THIS PROPHECY IS OF THE DEEPEST IMPORT IN ISRAEL'S HISTORY. WRITTEN DOWN SEVEN TIMES (MATT. 13:14, MARK 4:12, LUKE 8:10, JOHN 12:40,  ACTS 28:26-27, ROMANS* 11:8). SOLEMNY QUOTED IN THREE GREAT DISPENSATIONAL CRISES:

1. BY CHRIST (MATT. 13:14), AS COMING FROM YAHAVEH ON THE DAY A COUNCIL WAS HELD "TO DESTROY HIM".

2. BY CHRIST, AS COMING FROM MESSIAH IN HIS GLORY (JOHN 12:40-41) AFTER COUNSEL TAKEN TO "PUT HIM TO DEATH" (JOHN 11:53, 12:37).

3.  BY PAUL, AS COMING FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN, AFTER A WHOLE DAY'S CONFERENCE, THEY "BELIEVED NOT" (ACTS 28:25-27).

6:11  Then said I, "LORD, how long?" And He answered, "Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate.

HOW LONG TILL SATAN COMES TO EARTH ?

THEY FORSOOK THE TRUE CHRIST AND REPLACED HIM WITH THE FAKE. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE SIX WOES. THE WORST BEING FORSAKING THE LORD AND HIS WORD AND SADLY THIS WILL LEAD TO DESTRUCTION.

THE DESOLATOR (SATAN) WILL CAUSE THE DESOLATION.

6:12  And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.

6:13  But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance ( ITS ROOT=SYMBOLIC OF GOD'S ELECT) is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof."

THAT REMNANT (GOD'S ELECT) IS GOD'S SWORD SPIRITUALLY.

ROMANS 11:8= IT TALKS ABOUT THE SPIRIT OF SLUMBER THAT IS PLACED UPON SOME CHRISTIANS FOR THEIR OWN PROTECTION. THEY ARE TOO WEAK TO STAND UP FOR CHRIST AND GOD DOES NOT WANT THEM TO LOSE THEIR SOUL IF THEY WORSHIP SATAN KNOWNIGLY.

THEY WILL NOT UNDERSTAND THE TRUTH FROM GOD'S WORD. HOWEVER, THEY WILL LEARN IN THE MILLENNIUM (CHRIST'S THOUSAND YEAR REIGN).

GOD BLESS

GOD'S LAWS (PART TWO)

 

                                     CONTINUING WITH GOD'S LAWS (PART TWO).

                                                            PERSONAL LAWS.

Deuteronomy 24:1  When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favor in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.

IT COULD BE THAT THEY COULDN'T GET ALONG.

24:2  And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife.

SHE WILL BE ALLOWED TO REMARRY.

24:3  And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be his wife;

24:4  Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

GOD DIVORCED ISRAEL (JER. 3:8) AND LEFT HER FREE TO REMARRY WHEN JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS.

THEREFORE, WE ARE FREE TO REMARRY UPON REPENTANCE.

24:5  When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he hath taken.

IN OTHER WORDS, A NEWLYWED  NEEDS TO BOND WITH HIS WIFE AND BUILD HIS MARRIAGE UP FOR A YEAR, BEFORE HE IS GONE TO WAR.

24:6  No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he taketh a man's life to pledge.

DON'T PUT A MAN OUT OF BUSINESS FOR A PLEDGE.

24:7  If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you.

DON'T MAKE ANYONE A SLAVE TO MAKE MONEY.

24:8  Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so ye shall observe to do.

24:9  Remember what the LORD thy God did unto Miriam by the way, after that ye were come forth out of Egypt.

MIRIAM (MOSES SISTER) PARTICIPATED IN IDOL WORSHIP WITH AARON. GOD STRUCK HER DOWN WITH LEPROSY. 

MAKE A NOTE OF NUMBERS 12:10.

24:10  When thou dost lend thy brother (A POOR BROTHER) anything, thou shalt not go into his house to fetch his pledge.

THE HOUSE IS HIS CASTLE. DO NOT GO INSIDE SOMEONE'S HOUSE TO ASK FOR SOMETHING HE PLEDGED TO YOU.

24:11  Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall bring out the pledge abroad unto thee.

STAY IN THE YARD AND WAIT FOR HIM TO BRING YOU OF WHAT HE PLEDGED FOR A BUSINESS DEAL.

24:12  And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge (UPPER GARMENT):

24:13  In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment (THE RAIMENT GIVEN, IS NOT ONLY FOR DEBT, BUT AS A TOKEN THAT A BUSINESS PROMISE WILL BE KEPT), and bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee before the LORD thy God.

A POOR MAN USES HIS GARMENT TO SLEEP AS WELL. DON'T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM HIM.

IN OTHER WORDS, DO NOT TAKE EVERYTHING SOMEONE HAS.

24:14  Thou shalt not oppress (DEFRAUD) an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that are in thy land within thy gates:

24:15  At this day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry against thee unto the LORD, and it be sin unto thee.

YOU PAY YOUR EMPLOYEE AT THE END OF HIS WORK DAY. IF HE COMPLAINS TO ME YOU ARE IN TROUBLE.

24:16  The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

THE PARENTS DO NOT ANSWER FOR THEIR CHILDREN'S SINS AND VICE VERSA.

EVERYONE ANSWERS FOR THEIR OWN SINS.

MAKE A NOTE OF JER. 31:39.

24:17  Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:

YOU SUPPOSE TO HELP THE NEEDY.

24:18  But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.

24:19  When thou cuttest down thine harvest (GRAIN) in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands.

IF YOU FORGOT TO PICK ALL YOUR GRAIN UP FROM YOUR FIELD, DON'T GO BACK TO GET IT. LEAVE IT FOR THE NEEDY.

24:20  When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.

LEAVE SOMETHING BEHIND FOR THE NEEDY.

24:21  When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.

LEAVE SOME GRAPES FOR THE NEEDY.

24:22  And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.

GOD'S LAWS ARE NOT ONLY THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

ALL THESE LAWS ARE NOT NAILED TO THE CROSS. BLOOD ORDINANCES AND SOME STATUTES ARE DONE AWAY.

HOWEVER, CHRIST IS THE SACRIFICIAL LAMB THAT UPON REPENTANCE WE CAN HAVE FORGIVENESS WHEN WE BREAK GOD'S LAW.

WE CANNOT CON GOD ; REPENTANCE MEANS A CHANGE OF HEART.

GOD BLESS

GOD'S LAWS (PART ONE)

 

DID YOU KNOW THAT GOD'S LAWS ARE MORE THAN THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ?

A SIN IS A TRANSGRESSION OF GOD'S LAWS.

CHRIST BECAME THE SACRIFICIAL LAMB FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS UPON REPENTANCE. HOWEVER, YOU MUST REPENT EVERY TIME YOU BREAK ONE OR MORE OF GOD'S LAWS.

JESUS NAILED TO THE CROSS THE BLOOD ORDINANCES AND SOME STATUTES, BUT NOT GOD'S LAWS (MATT. 5:17-19).

IN TODAY'S STUDY WE ARE GOING TO LEARN THE LAWS (SEPARATE FROM THE TEN COMMANDMENTS) THAT ARE STILL IN EFFECT TODAY.

Leviticus 18:1  And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

18:2 "Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, 'I am the LORD your God.

18:3  After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein you dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, wither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.

THERE IS NO DIFFERENT TODAY. 

ISRAEL (ANGLO-SAXONS, VIKINGS, CELTS, IBERIANS) STILL FOLLOW OTHER gods, SUCH AS NEW AGE RELIGIONS, SANTA CLAUSE, EASTER BUNNIES, MONEY, MATERIAL THINGS, CHURCH SYSTEMS AND SO FORTH.

18:4  Ye shall do My judgments, and keep Mine ordinances, to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.

AND AGAIN, CHRIST NAILED TO THE CROSS THE BLOOD ORDINANCES AND SOME STATUTES.

18:5  Ye shall therefore keep My statutes, and My judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.

18:6  None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: for I am the LORD.

HE IS TALKING ABOUT INCEST. 

NO PERSON SHALL HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THEIR MOTHER, FATHER, BROTHER, SISTER, AUNT, UNCLE, COUSIN.

18:7 The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

TO UNCOVER THE NAKEDNESS OF YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER IS TO HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM (LEVITICUS 20:11).

18:8  The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness.

18:9  The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, whether she be born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR SISTER, ADOPTED SISTER, OR STEP-SISTER.

18:10  The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thine own nakedness.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR GRANDCHILDREN.

18:11  The nakedness of thy father's wife's ( IN HEBREW ALWAYS MEANS ONE'S STEP-MOTHER) daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR HALF-SISTER.

18:12  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister: she is thy father's near kinswoman.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR AUNT.

18:13  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister: for she is thy mother's near kinswoman.

18:14  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thy aunt.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR UNCLE'S WIFE. SHE IS YOUR AUNT.

18:15  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

YOU SHALLNOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR DAUGHTER IN LAW.

18:16  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is thy brother's nakedness.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR SISTER IN LAW.

18:17  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wickedness.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH A WOMAN (YOU ARE NOT MARRIED TO HER) AND HER FAMILY.

18:18  Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.

YOU SHALL NOT SEXUALLY SEDUCE YOUR SISTER IN LAW.

18:19  Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH A WOMAN IN HER MENSTRUAL CYCLE.

18:20  Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbor's wife, to defile thyself with her.

18:21  And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.

AT THAT TIME IT WAS BAPTISM BY FIRE. THEY DEDICATED THEIR CHILDREN TO MOLECH. THEY WOULD KILL THEIR OWN CHILDREN.

18:22  Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is an abomination.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THE SAME GENDER.

HOMOSEXUALITY IS AN ABOMINATION TO GOD.

18:23  Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.

YOU SHALL NOT HAVE INTERCOURSE WITH AN ANIMAL.

THIS WAS PART OF THE RELIGIOUS WORSHIP OF THE EGYPTIANS.

EGYPTIAN WOMEN WOULD LIE WITH HE-GOATS. IT WAS PART OF THEIR GOAT WORSHIP.

18:24  Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:

18:25  And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit (OVERSEE) the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.

VOMITETH= FROM THE BEGINNING, THE EARTH HAS SHARED THE CONSEQUENCES OF MAN'S GUILT (GEN.3:17, ROMANS 8:19-22). SINCE IT YIELDS NO FRUIT WHEN MAN YIELDS NO OBEDIENCE; AND DEFILED WHEN MAN ID DEFILED (DEUT. 11:17). GLAD WHEN GOD AVENGES HIS PEOPLE (PSALMS 96:11-13).

18:26  Ye shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:

18:27  (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)

THESE "DOINGS" ARE SPECIALLY LEGISLATED AGAINST, BECAUSE THESE WERE THE CORRUPTIONS PERTAINING TO THE ORIGIN AND CHARACTER OF THE NEPHILIM (FALLEN ANGELS). THESE FORMED THE NATIONS OF CANAAN, AND THIS WAS WHY THEY HAD TO BE DESTROYED BY THE SWORD OF ISRAEL, AS THOSE IN THE DAYS OF NOAH HAD TO BE DESTROYED BY THE FLOOD. VERSES 24 AND 25 ARE EMPHASISED BY THE OTHER WAY OF PUTTING THE FACTS.

18:28  That the land spue not you out also, when you defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.

GOD'S BLESSINGS ARE REMOVED FROM A NATION (S) THAT WON'T FOLLOW HIS LAWS.

18:29  For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.

IF THEY DON'T REPENT.

WE CAN HAVE FORGIVENESS THROUGH CHRIST TODAY AFTER REPENTANCE, BUT THE LAWS STILL STAND. 

18:30  Therefore shall ye keep Mine ordinance (OBSERVE MY OBSERVANCE, OR MY CHARGE), that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.' "

GOD BLESS

IT PLEASES GOD TO DO YOU GOOD IF YOU OBEY HIM.

 

IF YOU OBEY GOD YOU WILL RECEIVE MANY BLESSINGS AND ALWAYS HAVE A PEACE OF MIND. BUT IF YOU DON'T YOU WILL HAVE A LIFE FULL OF SORROW AND HEARTACHE. 

Deuteronomy 28:63  And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.

28:64  And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other (THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL IS NOT IN TODAY'S COUNTRY OF ISRAEL. THEY ARE THE ANGLO-SAXONS, CELTS, IBERIANS, VIKINGS); and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.

THE gods OF TODAY ARE, NEW AGE RELIGIONS, SANTA CLAUSE, EASTER BUNNIES, MATERIAL THINGS, MONEY, PRIDE, WORLDLY THINGS. 

28:65  And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest (YOU WILL HAVE NO PEACE OF MIND; YOU WILL BE CONSTANTLY ON THE MOVE): but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind (NOT SURE OF YOURSELF BECAUSE OF YOUR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE FROM THE WORD):

28:66  And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:

YOU WILL HAVE NO HOPE IN LIFE...YOU WON'T KNOW WHAT TOMORROW BRINGS.

28:67  In the morning thou shalt say, 'Would God it were even (IT'S AN EXPRESSION OF FEELING BY WAY OF PRAYER, OR IMPRECATION.) !' and at even thou shalt say 'Would God it were morning (YOU DON'T CARE WHAT TIME IT IS) !' for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see (BUT YOU WON'T UNDERSTAND).

28:68  And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, 'Thou shalt see it no more again:' and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.

HE BROUGHT THE BIRTH WHEN HE GOT THEM OUT OF EGYPT. HE WILL BRING THE DEATH WHEN HE BRINGS THEM BACK.

EVERYTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE O.T. IS FOR AN EXAMPLE, FOR THE THINGS THAT WILL TRANSPIRE BEFORE THE END OF THIS DISPENSATION.

DECEPTION WILL BE THE SPIRITUAL DEATH FOR MANY PEOPLE IN OUR GENERATION.

GOD BLESS

THE BOX TREE

 

                 SATAN HAS MANY NAMES. ONE OF HIS NAMES IS "THE "BOX TREE".

Ezekiel 31:3 Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of high statute; and his top was among the thick boughs.

GOD USING THIS ANALOGY TO DESCRIBE SATAN.

THE ASSYRIAN= IT SHOULD READ "TE ASHSHUR"= A BOX TREE, INSTEAD OF "ASHSHUR= AN ASSYRIAN.

31:4  The waters (SYMBOLIC OF PEOPLE; REV. 17:15) made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plans, and sent out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field.

SATAN'S FAMILY.

THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL = SATAN.

TREES= SYMBOLIC OF PEOPLE.

IT GOES BACK TO THE FOUR RIVERS IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN.

31:5  Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches (BRANCH IN THE HEBREW) became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth.

31:6 All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs (ARMS), and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations.

HE IS THE PRINCE OF THE AIR.

31:7  Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters.

GOD ALLOWED IT.

31:8 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.

IN OTHER WORDS, SATAN WAS MADE THE FULL PATTERN (BEAUTY AND INTELLIGENCE).

ANGELS ARE MADE A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN WE ARE AND THEY ALSO HAVE A BODY.

MAKE A NOTE OF EZEKIEL 28.

31:9  I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches (MORE SETTLED THAN ALL THE LIVING CREATURES IN THE WORLD): so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.

31:10  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; 'Because thou hast filled up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;

HE THINKS HE IS BETTER THAN ANYONE.

31:11  I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen (NATIONS); he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out (IN) for his wickedness.

31:12  And strangers (FOREIGNERS), the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.

GOD'S ELECT WILL BRING HIM DOWN.

31:13  Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:

31:14  To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death (DEATH IS ONE OF SATAN'S NAMES= HEB. 2:14), to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.'

HE IS VERY GOOD IN DECEPTION, AND HE WILL TAKE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH HIM.

31:15  Thus saith the Lord GOD; 'In the day when he went down to the grave (HELL) I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him (HE VALUES THE DECEPTION).

31:16  I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down ( I CAUSED HIM TO DESCEND) to hell (GRAVE=SHEOL IN THE HEBREW) with them that descent unto the pit: and all the trees of Eden (ALL THE FAMILIES THAT CAME OUT OF THAT), the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth.

SATAN WAS CREATED TO GUARD THE MERCY SEAT, IN THE FIRST EARTH AGE.

HE EARNED THE HIGHEST POSITION IN HEAVEN, BECAUSE HE WAS VERY INTELLIGENT AND GOOD OF WHAT HE DID. HOWEVER, PRIDE TOOK OVER, AND INSTEAD OF GUARDING THE MERCY SEAT HE WANTED TO BE GOD AND SIT ON IT HIMSELF. ONE THIRD OF GOD'S CHILDREN FOLLOWED HIM (REV. 12:3-4) AND GOD DID NOT WANT TO DESTROY ONE THIRD OF HIS CHILDREN; INSTEAD HE DESTROYED THAT AGE (THE DINOSAUR AGE).

HE CREATED THIS AGE, ERASED OUR MEMORY AND GAVE EVERYONE A CHOICE, TO FOLLOW HIM, OR SATAN.

THE ONLY ONES WHO HAVE NO FREE CHOICE (BECAUSE THEY WENT AGAINST SATAN IN THE FIRST EARTH AGE) ARE HIS ELECT. THEY WERE CHOSEN BEFORE THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE WORLD (JOHN 15:16).

MAKE A NOTE OF ISAIAH 45:18, JEREMIAH 4:22-27, II PETER 3:5-7.

Ezekiel 31:17  They also went down into hell (GRAVE*) with him unto them that be slain (SPIRITUALLY) with the sword; and they that were his arm (HIS SEED= THE KENITES), that dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen.

31:18  To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet thou shalt be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword.

This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD."

NOW HE IS GOING BACK TO PHARAOH HERE.

PHARAOH WAS ONLY A TYPE FOR THE EVENTS THAT WILL TRANSPIRE BEFORE AND AFTER CHRIST'S RETURN.

SATAN AND HIS PEOPLE WILL CEASE TO EXIST (IN THE GREEK) IN THE FUTURE.

SHEOL= GRAVE.

The first occurrence of this word is in Genesis 37:35, where it is rendered "grave". 

"THE GRAVE", it is to be distinguished from keber, A grave, or, burying place.

GOD BLESS

THE CROSS AND CRUCIFIXION

 

In the Greek N.T. two words are used for "the cross", on which the Lord was put to death.

1. The word stauros (Σταυρος) ; which denotes an upright pale or stake, to which the criminals were nailed for execution.

2. The word xulon (Ξυλον), which generally denotes a piece of a dead log or wood, or timber, for fuel or for any other purpose.

As this latter word xulon is used for the former stauros, it shows us that the meaning of each is exactly the same.

The verb stauroo  means to drive stakes.

The English word "cross" is the translation of the Latin crux; but the Greek stauros no more means a crux that the word "stick" means a "crutch".

It never means two pieces of timber placed across one another at any angle, but always of one piece alone.

There is nothing in the Greek of the N.T. even to imply two pieces of timber.

The letter Chi, X, the intial of the word Christ (Xριστος), was originally used for His name; This was superseded by symbols on these crosses of the Babylonian sun-god., and are first seen on a coin of Julius Caesar, 100-44 B.C., and then on a coin struck by Caesar's heir (Augustus), 20 B.C.

This is the symbol on the coins of Constantine :

This was the symbol especially venerated as the "Solar Wheel". It should be stated that Constantine was a sun-god worshipper, and would not enter the "Church" till some quarter of a century after the legend of his having seen such a cross in the heavens.

The catacombs in Rome bear the same testimony: "Christ" is never represented there as "hanging on a cross", and the cross itself is only portrayed in a veiled and hesitating matter. In the Egyptian churches the cross was a pagan symbol of life, borrowed by the Christians, and interpreted in the pagan manner.

"The Invention of the Cross" by Helena the mother of Constantine (in 326), though it means the finding of the cross, may or may not be true ; but the "invention" of it in pre-Christian times, and the "invention" of its use in later times, are truths of which we need to be reminded in the present day. The evidence is thus complete, that the Lord was put to death upon an upright stake, and not two pieces of timber placed at any angle.

GOD BLESS

THE PRINCIPLE UNDERLYING THE QUOTATIONS FROM THE O.T. IN THE NEW.

It is a fact that in quotations from the O.T. the Greek text sometimes differs from the Hebrew.

The difficulties found in connection with this subject arise from our thinking and speaking only of the human agent as the writer, instead of having regard to the fact that the word of God is the record of the words which He Himself employed when He spoke at "sundry times and in divers manners" (Heb. 1:1); and from not remembering (or believing) that "holy men of God" spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit (II Peter 1:21, Matt. 15:4,Mark 12:36, Acts 1:16, 3:18, 28:25, Heb. 3:7, 9:8, 10:15.

If we believe that throughout the scriptures we have the words of God, and not of man, all difficulties vanish. The difficulties are created by first assuming that we are dealing with merely human documents, and then denying the Divine Speaker and Author the right that is claimed by every human writer for himself.

It thus seems that man may take any liberty he chooses in quoting, adapting, or repeating in a varied form for his own previously written words; but that he denies the Divine Author of Holy Scripture the right to deal in the same manner with His own words. This is the cause of all the so-called "discrepancies" and "difficulties" arising from man's ignorance.

The Holy Spirit, in referring to words which He has before caused to be written in connection with the special circumstances of each particular case, frequently refers to them again in relation to different circumstances and other cases. He could have employed other words had He chosen to do so ; but it has pleased Him to repeat His own words, introducing them in different connections, with other applications, and in new senses.

All these things are done, and words are even sometimes changed, in order to bring out some new truth for our learning. This is lost upon us when we charge upon God our own ignorance, and the supposed infirmities of human agencies.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF REVELATION (19)

                                                           THE FINAL UTTERANCES. 

                                        THE SEVENTH AND LAST VISION ON EARTH.

Revelation 19:1  And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying,  "Alleluia (PRAISE YE THE LORD); Salvation, and glory, and honor, and power, unto the LORD our God:

THE VOICE OF THE GREAT MULTITUDE.

19:2  For true and righteous are His judgments: for He hath judged the great whore (WE SUPPOSE TO BE VIRGINS TO CHRIST SPIR.), which did corrupt the earth with her fornication (CAUSED THE PEOPLE TO JUMB INTO BED WITH SATAN SPIR.), and hath avenged the blood of His servants.

19:3  And again they said, "Alleluia."

And her smoke rose up forever and ever.

SMOKE= THERE IS AN ACROSTIC IN PSALMS 37 IN THE ORIGINAL TEXTS.

PART OF THE ACROSTIC IS, YOU WILL SEE IT HAPPENING.

GOD PLACE CERTAIN THINGS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE EYES TO SEE TO UNDERSTAND. IT IS NOT GIVEN FOR EVERYONE TO UNDERSTAND AT THIS TIME (MATT. 13:10).

IN THIS ACROSTIC THE QUESTION IS BEEN ASKED, 'WHY EVIL GETS AWAY AND GOOD NEVER PROSPERS?' GOD ANSWERS AND SAYS, 'THE WICKED WILL BE THE FAT OF THE SHEEP OR LAMB ON THE SPIT.

IN OTHER WORDS, THEY WILL TURN INTO ASHES FROM WITHIN. THE SMOKE GOES FOREVER AND EVER.

DECEPTION IS OVER.

19:4  And the four and twenty elders (THE 12 PATRIARCHS AND THE 12 APOSTLES) and the four beasts (CHERUBIM THAT GUARD THE MERCY SEAT) fell down and worshipped God That sat on the throne, saying, "Amen; Alleluia."

19:5  And a voice came out of the throne, saying, "Praise our God, all ye His servants, "Praise our God, all ye His servants, and ye that fear Him (REVERENCE HIM), both small and great."

19:6  And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters (PEOPLE ; REV. 17:15), and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, "Alleluia: for the LORD God Omnipotent (ALMIGHTY) reigneth.

19:7  Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife hath made herself ready.

HIS ELECTION WAS A VIRGIN BRIDE TO CHRIST, THEREFORE, THEY WILL BE IN THE MARRIAGE SUPPER.

GOD'S ELECT WERE JUSTIFIED IN THE FIRST EARTH AGE (ROMANS 8:26)

MAKE A NOTE OF MATT. 25.

19:8  And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness (RIGHTEOUS ACTS IN THE GREEK) of saints.

19:9  And he saith unto me, "Write, 'Blessed are they which are called (THE ELECT DID NOT VOLUNTEER BUT ARE CALLED) unto the marriage supper of the Lamb.'" And he saith unto me, "These are the true sayings of God."

19:10  And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, "See thou do it not: I am thy fellow servant (SOMEONE LIVED ON EARTH AND HAD PASSED ON), and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy (IT'S GOING TO PASS EXACTLY THE WAY IT IS WRITTEN)."

19:11   And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse; and He That sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He doth judge and make war.

HE DOESN'T DECLARE WAR TO HIS OWN, ONLY TO THE ONES WHO DESERVE IT.

19:12  His eyes were as a flame of fire (GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE= HEB. 2:29. HE WARMS OUR HEARTS BUT DESTROYS THE ENEMY), and on His head were many crowns (ALL CROWNS ARE MELTED INTO ONE. THIS IS WHY HE IS KING OF KINGS); and He had a name written, that no man knew, but He Himself.

19:13  And He was clothed with a vesture dipped (DYE OR STAINED) in blood: and His name is called The word of God (JOHN 1:1).

19:14  And the armies which were in heaven followed Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean (THE ONES WHO WASHED THEIR ROBES IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB).

19:15  And out of His mouth goeth a sharp sword (THE TWO EDGED SWORD= THE TRUTH OF THE WORD OF GOD), that with it He should smite the nations: and He shall rule them with a rod of iron (WITH AUTHORITY): and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

19:16  And He hath on His vesture and on His thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

THIS IS THE FINAL FULFILMENT.

19:17  And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, "Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God (TO THE GREAT SUPPER OF GOD IN THE GREEK);

19:18  That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great."

FLESH TURNS TO DUST (ZECH.14), WE ARE ALL CHANGED INTO OUR SPIRITUAL BODY UPON HIS RETURN.

THE FLESH AGE IS OVER.

19:19  And I saw the beast (SATAN'S POLITICAL SYSTEM), and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him That sat on the horse, and against His army.

MAKE A NOTE OF DANIEL 11.

19:20  And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet (SATAN'S POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS SYSTEM) that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast (THE ONES WHO WORSHIPPED HIM AND FOLLOWED HIS SYSTEM), and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone (HIS SYSTEM WAS THROWN INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE = CEASED TO EXIST).

SATAN WILL BE ALLOWED TO DECEIVE THEM AGAIN AFTER THE MILLENNIUM.

19:21  And the remnant (THE FALLEN ANGELS) were slain with the sword of Him (HE DESTROYED THEM) That sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of His mouth (HIS TRUTH): and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

GOD BLESS

THE VOICE FROM THE WILDERNESS

                                                  MESSIAH'S ANOINTING AND MISSION.

 GOD'S CONTROVERSY WITH ISRAEL (NOT THE TODAY'S COUNTRY OF ISRAEL, BUT THE TRIBES).

                                         GOD'S CONTROVERSY WITH THE NATIONS.

Isaiah 40:1 "Comfort ye, comfort ye My People,"saith your God.

COMFORT FOR JERUSALEM.

40:2 "Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare (HARDSHIPS) is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD's hand double (IN FULL) for all her sins."

THIS IS FUTURE.

40:3  The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, "Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.

QUOTED IN MATT.3:3, MARK 1:3, LUKE 3:4-6, JOHN 1:23, I PETER 1:24.

JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS A TYPE OF ELIJAH.

THIS WAS WRITTEN SIX HUNDRED AND A HALF YEARS BEFORE CHRIST, AND BEFORE JOHN THE BAPTIST.

THE VOICE = THE VOICE OF THE TEMPLE IN CHAPTER 6, CONCERNING THE SCATTERING, AND THIS VOICE OUTSIDE THE LAND CONCERNING THE GATHERING. THE VOICE WAS NOT ISAIAH'S, BUT HEARD BY HIM IN VISION. JOHN THE BAPTIST CLAIMS IT; BUT THIS PEOPLE WOULD NOT HEAR; AND HE WHOM HE HERALDED WAS CRUCIFIED AND HIS KINGDOM WAS REJECTED (JOHN 1:11). THE KING AND THE KINGDOM ARE THEREFORE ALIKE IN ABEYANCE , AND THE PROPHECY YET AWAKE ITS FUTURE FULFILMENT.

40:4  Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:

THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN THE NEW EARTH AGE BEGINS.

THESE PHYSICAL MARVELS ARE SUPERNATURAL, AND CAN NEVER BE PRODUCED BY THE SPIRITUAL AND HOLY LIVING OF INDIVIDUAL CHRISTIANS.

40:5  And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it."

THIS IS ALL FUTURE.

40:6  The voice (THIS IS A SECOND VOICE= THE VOICE OF GOD) said, "Cry (SHOUT)." And he said, "What shall I cry?" "All flesh (ALL PEOPLE) is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field:

IN OTHER WORDS, FLESH IS NO BETTER THAN GRASS.

40:7  The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.

40:8  The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand forever."

FLESH DON'T LAST LONG, BUT GOD'S WORD LASTS FOREVER.

40:9  O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, "Behold your God (THIS SENTENCE IS APPLICABLE TO THE GOSPEL BY JOHN)!"

40:10  Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand, and His arm shall rule for Him: behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him.

REFERRING TO CHRIST.

HE WILL TEACH AND JUDGE.

40:11  He shall feed His flock like a shepherd: He shall gather the lambs with His arm, and carry them in His bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young.

HE DOES TAKE CARE OF HIS OWN.

40:12  Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?

HE CREATED AND BALANCED EVERYTHING.

40:13  Who hath directed the spirit of the LORD, or being His counseller hath taught Him?

NOBODY HAS.

40:14  With whom took He counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of judgment, and taught Him knowledge, and shewed to Him the way of understanding?

ALL WISDOM COMES FROM GOD (PROVERBS 1:7).

40:15  Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, He taketh up the isles as a very little thing.

THE NATIONS, GOVERNMENTS ARE NOTHING COMPARING TO THE POWER OF GOD.

40:16  And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn (FOR WOOD-OFFERING), nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a burnt offering.

CHRIST WAS OUR SACRIFICE.

40:17  All nations before Him are as nothing; and they are counted to Him less than nothing, and vanity (EMPTY).

40:18  To whom then will ye liken GOD? or what likeness will ye compare unto Him?

WHO ARE YOU GOING TO COMPARE HIM WITH?

40:19  The workman melteth a graven image, and the goldsmith spreadeth it over gold, and casteth silver chains.

40:20  He that is so improverished (POOR) that he hath no oblation chooseth a tree that will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to prepare a graven image, that shall not be moved (NOT FALL OVER; HEAVIER AT THE BOTTOM THAN THE TOP).

40:21  Have ye not known: have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth (THE FIRST AGE BEGINS THE MYSTERY)?

40:22  It is He That sitteth upon the circle of the earth (A COMPASS THAT MAKES THE CIRCLE), and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; That stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:

40:23  That bringeth the princes to nothing (PRINCE OF THE AIR IS SATAN, AND THE PRINCES ARE THE KENITES, HIS OFFSPRING); He maketh the judges of the earth as vanity.

THE EVIL PART OF THE WORLD WON'T WIN.

40:24  Yea, they shall not be planted (STAND); yea, they shall not be sown: yea, their stock shall not take root in the earth: and He shall  also blow upon them, and they shall wither, and the whirlwind (GOD'S VEHICLE) shall take them away as stubble (STRAW).

40:25  "To whom they will ye liken Me, or shall I be equal?" saith the Holy One.

YOU CANNOT COMPARE HIM TO ANYONE OR ANYTHING.

40:26  "Lift up your eyes on high, and behold Who hath created these things, That bringeth out their host by number: He calleth them all by names by the greatness of His might, for that He is strong in power; not one faileth.

HE KNOWS ALL THE STARS; HE NAMED THEM HIMSELF.

40:27  Why sayest thou O Jacob (ALL 12 TRIBES), and speakest, O Israel, 'My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?'

WHY THEY SAY GOD ISN'T FAIR.

40:28  Hast thou not known ? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of His understanding.

GOD NEVER GETS TIRED ; HE TAKES CARE OF THE WEAK.

40:29  He giveth power to the faint (THE WEAK); and to them that have no might He increaseth strength.

40:30  Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall (WITHOUT GOD'S HELP):

40:31  But they that wait upon the LORD  shall renew (CHANGE FOR THE BETTER IN THE HEBREW) their strength; they shall mound up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint (THIS IS SYMBOLIC TO THE PROGRESS OF EXPERIENCE IN GRACE. AT FIRST WE FLY (II COR. 11:5, 12:11), THEN WE RUN UP (EPH. 3:8), THEN WE WALK (I TIM.1:15).

GOD BLESS
