It took 120 days to construct the ark. We are to be conformed in the likeness of the Son. 40x3 where three is the command number for the Son. The ark was three stories high. Our body, soul and spirit are to be wholly circumscribed by the mind of the Son who obeyed his Father totally.
The ark was 300 cubits long, 50 cubits broad, 30 cubits high. Of the last point with regards to the height we have this line," Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail(Ge.8:20a)"
What does this tell us? We are living two worlds at the same time, world of the flesh and of the Spirit. Water level gave 15 cubits above, signifying each believer negotiated heaven and earth alike trusting in the Lord God.
Noah's Ark also serves to indicate the Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ is in mid-air than on the earth. For this reason New Jerusalem descends from heaven, glory of which all earth shall see. "Every eye shall see him', even so, Amen. (Re.1:7)
Symbolism of body wherever the Spirit uses, is bound up with the Sovereignty of the Will. Thus symbolism of a Lamb and a stone 'cut not with hands' are within direct frame of reference to the Son.
The Spirit sets the ark as foreshadow of believer called to be elect. All those who have made a covenant by sacrifice are similarly shut in (Ge.7:16) The believer is insulated from corruption within and without.
The ark is made of gopher-wood but just the same faith built it. "By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith."(He.11:7)
God specified the Ark of the Covenant (Ex.25:10-11)
God's instruction with regards to the specifications was not only for his family but also for His creation. As Adam before him Noah was His steward. "And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.(Ge.6:19-21)
While God judged all flesh they were to remain sealed within the ark volume of which is to be spiritually understood. In order to set in context we have the decree of God. "And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years."(Ge.6:3). This is pendent to the everlasting covenant. Days of man is set in relation to the day appointed for the Son and it is word based.
He shall not henceforth strive with man in the Man component, on the basis of the day of creation but in terms of the logos aspect of the Son who therefore represents the way for his salvation. The Spirit tags Gospel by the command number 12. Every man shall bear his burden and shall be responsible to keep this covenant "Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice."(Ps.50:5). Predestination disperses all spiritual blessings in his Son to man who is committed. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever.
The first 9 verses discuss 4 horses which are likely the same spiritual entities listed in Revelation. The white horse is described as going with the black horse and somehow "quieting my spirit" in the north country. This seems to be referring to the angel himself; likely a scenario at that time with nations attempting to intrude from the north. Verse 10 mentions people coming out of captivity; which is somewhat paralleled in recent years with the Jews coming from Russia and other areas; and fulfilled completely during the Millennium after the Tribulation when captives are freed.
Verses 11-15 discuss crowning Joshua; but then mention the final fulfillment with "The BRANCH" starting in verse 12. The Messianic rule is clear here with the building of the Millennial Temple (verses 12-13); and the O.T. saints crowned as a "memorial" verse 14. Finally; verse 15 shows people from far off (probably nations throughout the world) and indicates these things happen "if ye will diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God." (v. 15).
We can see from this near and far fulfillments; as well as conditionally what would have perhaps been sooner in coming to pass with continual obedience; which of course is impossible in the law. We certainly can learn today to continue to be salt and light ( Matt. 5:13-14) so as not to allow spiritual decay farther before the Lord's return. Christ was necessary to fulfill the role of Priest for our justification but also wat the final Prophet as well as the King of Kings. Scripture demonstrates that the most godly have from time to time fallen short ( Numbers 20:10-13; Matthew 11:3). The Lord wishes to move in His Body the church but will withdraw His candlestick when we fall short ( Revelation 2:5).
Study Ezekiel 40-48 for further insights on the Millennial Temple as well as changes on the earth at that time.
Romans 1:21-32
Romans 1:32
the words knowing the judgements of God, implies they have a knowledge of God
Whether they profess to be a Christian or not
the righteous judgements of the Holy, Holy, Holy God will find them out! Hebrews 4:12,13
& will reward them according to their deeds, if not confessed with a godly sorrow unto repentance & forsaken, which is a reward according to their deeds also.
Notice though that the people on the ship must have believed that the God Jonah worshipped is real because they called out to God and perhaps turned to him as a result. Then when Jonah finally preaches to the Ninevites they also accept what he says.
One of the lessons that I take away from Jonah is that God uses who he wants to use and we don't have to be perfect people to achieve good things if God wills it, so none of us has an excuse, we should all be doing what God calls us to do (go and make disciples of all nations).
It is my belief that God (the True Author of Scripture) is speaking of our testimony. You see, all sin leads unto death; "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 KJV. So how can there be a sin that leads NOT unto death? The only thing that makes sense is God is speaking of our testimony; you see, Christ's most scathing rebuke is "hypocrite". Keeping this in mind, hypocrisy "kills" our testimony! I can admit I'm a sinner and still Proclaim Christ's Healing in my life! For instance: If I proclaim that God healed me of drug addiction, yet I'm found to still be doing drugs I'm a hypocrite and "kill" my testimony. Yet, if I admit that I'm a sinner AND still suffer a multitude of sinful desires, but I proclaim that God healed my drug addiction fully to the point of destroying ALL desire for drug use, then, if I'm caught in sexual immorality I'm a sinner, yet if I never do another drug again then my sin of sexual immorality takes NOTHING away from my proclamation of God Healing me of drug addiction. Thus, there is a sin unto death and a sin NOT unto death; it's death of our Testimony! Above ALL knowledge of scripture, above ALL theological teachings, and above ALL religions is the testimony of The Lord Jesus Christ's Healing power in our lives. Testimony is actual PROOF that God is real!
The sin unto death is the rejection of Christ.
It says, If any man see his brother, that is, a Christian, sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death.
It's God's will that if I see a brother or sister involved in a sin that is not unto death, and that's the rejection of Christ, but I can pray for every born again believer, and God will minister to them, because God will not allow His people to live in habitual sin, and I can pray according to His will.
But then he goes on to say that there is a sin unto death: And I do not say that he shall pray for it.
1 John 5:17 says that all unrighteousness is sin. That's the non-believer.And there is a sin that's not unto death.
All the sins that Christians commit are not unto death. The only sin in the bible that is unto death is in Matthew 12:31-32.
Jesus said wherefore I say unto you, all manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
And whosoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaks against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
The Holy Spirit is here to convict people of their need of Christ. If you reject His testimony, you have committed the unpardonable sin.
So he says I can't pray for someone who is rejecting Christ. I can't pray for them to get saved because that's between them and God. I just pray for His will to be done.
Hope this helps!
What is this sin that is unto death?
The exact location of the King's Valley is not definitively identified in the Bible, and its precise geographical location remains a subject of debate among scholars and historians. Some believe it to be associated with the Kidron Valley, which runs east of Jerusalem, while others have different interpretations.
The significance of this passage in Genesis is primarily related to the meeting between Abraham and Melchizedek, which is seen as a foreshadowing of Christ's priesthood in the New Testament, as Melchizedek is described as a priest of God Most High and a type of Christ. The King's Valley serves as the backdrop for this important biblical encounter.
"In my heart and life it happened. By eagles wings I was carried out of darkness and the bondage of Egypt into a new and better land.
That reminds me of Philippians 1:6.
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
God bless
I pray for those who have walked away from God though brought up to know Him in Jesus. I pray for God to bring all the prodigal children home to rock solid faith in Jesus, never again to wander from Him. O Lord, preserve the work of Your hands in these loved ones.
I ask that others pray for our kids also. May this generation of our children be a great witness for Christ and enter into eternal life with us. Amen
1Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll.
2And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.
3Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.
4I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.
These verses are admittedly difficult to analize. Some have suggested this indicates the dimensions of a missile or some small scale nuclear warhead. It does show that the whole earth is somehow affected in particular the thief and those who "swear falsely". I would tend to think that may mean convenants such as marriages or other vows that are disregarded with God in particular. One could look at other demons in Revelation and the Book of Joel 2:9 for a similar invasion but there are some differences.
The rest of the chapter seems to indicate demonic religion taking root in the land of "Shinar" which is in ancient Mesopotamia or the area of Babylon (verse 11). This could certainly refer to the one world religion being prepared in Abu Dhabi and perhaps envisioned elsewere to bring about unity with all the Monotheistic religions; and or a new religion amalgamating mysticism from Eastern and Western faiths alike. We certainly see this as dominating the world in the first half of the Tribulation ( Rev. 17:3) before Satan overthrows it ( Rev. 17:16) and the subsequent destruction of the religious AND economic Babylon in Revelation 18.
Love you in the Lord Jesus.
Fall of Adam attests to it. Day Seven is the fulfillment or making your election sure. This is the only way. Without it Day Six stands for judgment. In Adam all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it. "For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,"(He.2:11)
To recap: "All things were created by him, and for him:/ And he is before all things, and by him all things consist./ And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence./ For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell/ And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven."(Col.1:16-20) Here we have the ministry of reconciliation.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
So is used as a coordinating conjunction and it connects with the divine Will expressed."And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,"(v.26) From this we can infer the expression,"the image and likeness" is with reference to the Son who is the visible image of the invisible God. In his own image however accepts the principles that govern the action that of Power and Wisdom which in its primary sense are male and female. Thus Wisdom having built her house sends forth her maidens inviting,"Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled." (Pr.9:5)
Overview
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made." (2.3)
The Spirit presents us with seven days indicating that we are looking the creation as willed in the mind of the Father. Seven is a tag for the whole perfect will of God. This can be broadly divided into two where Heaven covers first four days in which Day 3 points his Son in whom the Father was pleased. "And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, "Let all God's angels worship him."(He.1:6) What occurs in heaven is made manifest on the earth. Thus we read passages where a voice from heaven is heard saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."(Matt.3:17)
God had established the Son as the first born of all creation. " Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature." (Col.1:15)
Days 4 to 6 refers to the Son as the Word become flesh, "Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee./ And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me."(He.2:12-13)
"I will declare thy name unto my brethren" makes every one called to join it. In other words we have this verse, "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork." The three wise men saw the glory after their fashion and set out to worship his Son. The heavenly choir appeared to some shepherds likewise. Thus the will of God has been set in motion in manifold ways. So the second division of seven days is the preaching of the Word. Day Five as we discussed in the previous post was about man appointed as the steward of God, the Son was the firstborn of all creation.
What does Day Six signify? Is it not obedience to the call? "I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee." Without obeying the call what is he?
The Fifth Day
"And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life,"
Fifth day is all about life and we shall first study with regards to the life of man. We are considering the spiritual basis for life, and His creation as a memorial is set in heaven of which the four beasts attest the glory of God. In the next two days we are considering stewardship of man. Adam as the double for the Son. The third beast has the face of man. Significance of the number Three cannot be lost on anyone. Memorial in heaven is about overcomer to which Adam cannot be considered as a candidate so the face of man relates to the last Adam.
"The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit./ Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual./ The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven."(1 Co.15:45-47)
The Lord from heaven proved his stewardship as we shall see in his prayer,"But these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, ....While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled."( John 17:11-12)
The number Five has a bearing on the above stewardship. Guilt offering under the Law of Moses specified the value, "he shall restore it in full and shall add a fifth to it, and give it to him to whom it belongs on the day he realizes his guilt."(Le.6:5-ESV) In the Parable of the Five Foolish Virgins who were not good stewards with the Spirit entrusted under their care we see the Number Five used accordingly.
The Spirit refers to the moving creatures that has life in terms of the waters. The Spirit draws a distinction between the seas and the land. In St John's vision the beast arises from the sea which as Isaiah qualifies it, stands for ungodly nations. (Is.57:20)

8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch.
9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10 In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
These passages are deep with prophetic meanings. Christ (or the Branch) will bring the atonement; and allow fulfillment for Joshua and his fellowservants (part of the assembly inclusive of all saints) through the sevenfold spirit of God ( Revelation 1:4).
The stone that is engraved perhaps is signifying a new covenant like the one in Exodus 32:16; or is like the seal of the Spirit
in Ephesians 1:13; or 2 Corinthians 1:22.
Verse 10 is cross referenced by Micah 4:4 and other passages; indicating the Millennial promises for Israel which likely extends to the whole world at that time.
Here we see the reference to the two olive trees with the golden lampstand and the explanation. This parallels Revelation 11:4 as seen at the end of the chapter in verse 14. This chapter seems to imply Zerubbabel and Joshua as being the individuals in question here; while Revelation stronly suggests Elijah will return in the Tribulation ( Malachi 3:1). The second individual in my opinion based on Hebrews 9:27 could be Enoch; others have suggested other possibilities.
1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.
2 And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the Lord stood by.
The accuser or the enemy of our souls was apparently in some sort of compromised state due to sin. The specific cause isn't there but his garments were filthy (see Revelation 3:4 the state of many in Sardis). To be able to be in God's presence we must be unspotted ( Eph. 5:27). Therefore; the Lord forgave the iniquity (verse 4) and gave him fresh garments and a mitre (v. 5).
6 And the angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying,
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.
These verses show a sort of permanence to Joshua's ministry if he continues in God's path. The indication in the rest of the chapter is the Lord Himself has to ensure him as well as the rest of us that through His atonement. The later part of verse 7 probably indicates other heavenly angels or other saints that may be part of the "cloud of witnesses" perhaps alluding to Heb. 12:1-2?
Friends,
In Peter stating "no prophecy of the Scripture", then explains what he's referring to in the next verse, "but holy men of God spake as they were " MOVED by the HOLY GHOST "
He's speaking of the Holy Spirit voice speaking in our hearts, 2Cor 4:6, which "Treasure we have in these earthen vessels", that Peter refers to 2Peter 1:19 "a light that shines in a dark place" 1John 2:27 it's the sure Word of prophecy This is how they received the faith that we are earnestly to contend for Jude 1:3 believing that it is He speaking to us, "the Word of Faith" that's near us even in our hearts & in our mouth, that Paul preached. Rom 10:17 the Living Word, Christ, not the letter, but His Spirit.
For the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy Rev 19:10 by which the Scriptures were received & written , 2 Tim 3:16
It's the Spirit of Grace appearance, refer to in John 1:9, that Peter is referring to as the sure Word, for He will speak the same meaning of the Scriptures to all, which He inspired. John 16:13
For all that would submit to Him, He will bring into the unity of the Faith of the Son of God as it was in the beginning
Acts 4:32
This present "thread" is an witness against all of you of His lack of inspiration among you,
Given forth for no other reason, but to awaken you to the reality of your condition, that you may recover from her cup.
Rev 17:2-5
In love & truth
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. (v.2)
The formlessness of the earth refers the body he 'hast prepared me.' In the fulness of times it shall be the new heaven and new earth. God is a Spirit moving upon the waters so what is knowable of God in the material world shall have understanding which is spontaneous. (Ro.1:20). Thus fire shall go out when the air is cut off. (Understanding in every atom in Cosmos is like a seed-"But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body."-1 Co.15:38)
Light and darkness are alike unto God. God gave understanding to lower parts so when the last trump sounds the dead shall hear. " In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed."(1 Co.15:52)
"And God said, Let there be light: and there was light./ And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness." (vv.4-5)
We are considering here trinity. The Father, a Spirit, the Son body and the Word, which was God ( John 1:1) which is a voice and also a sign. Knowledge of the holy is set in terms of the gospel which is one. Light of the knowledge of the glory of God is set in terms of Jesus Christ.(2 Co.4:6) We shall put this relationship in terms of the light, as a quality in imparting understanding. God the Father of lights, the Son as the true Light. ( "the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world."- John 1:9)
How do we separate the light from darkness in terms of Jesus Christ? Those who put on the mind of Christ shall see through his light. (Ps.36:9) It is also called the eye of faith. It is single in focus. "thy whole body shall be full of light."(Matt.6:22) Those who see the world and its traditions lies even in darkness. "And we know that we are of God," ( 1 John 5:19-21)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The Spirit tags 'in the beginning' and it has its purpose. The narrative is about the Fellowship of God with Man. "For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell." Here it is the sovereign will of God and Isaiah gives us the analogy of the Potter and the lump of clay. (Is.45:9) In Jesus Christ it was decreed 'according to the pleasure of his will'.and He made us accepted in the beloved.
"Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,/ To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved./ In whom we have redemption through his blood, "(Ep.1:5-7) God settled the quality of all those who would be admitted into the fellowship in his beloved' Son. Fulness of the Son is given a beginning, which is what the Spirit wants us to know. Knowledge of the holy is understanding. And St Paul gives us the purpose of the fulness of times so we are instructed by the Spirit what is the purpose of this God document. (2 Ti.3:16-'instruction in righteousness.')
"And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven./ And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled/ In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight."(Col.1:20-22)
Jesus spoke in parables to those who stood to benefit. The disciples who despite of hard sayings stuck with Jesus through thick and thin would finally admit, "His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb."( John 16:29)
We have another passage in the above mentioned Psalm, "If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me./ Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee."(139:15-16). The psalm predicts the death of the Son and he went to preach to the souls in prison. "By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;"(1 Pe.3:19). Jesus had referred the sign of Jonah to speak of his death. Jonah was interred three days and three nights in the belly of a great fish. Here we have the Spirit setting people, events in terms of the Son, "For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell."
So the psalmist would give us this reference, "If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there." Jesus came down to the will of his Father and even death could not hold him down. Now he is set down on the right side of the Most high. "And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace."( John 1:16). If we should still treat our bodies to do our will we have no other remedy.
How the mind of God and of the Son are set against each other by the Spirit can have only one conclusion. doing the will of God. So the writer t the Hebrews speak of Jesus, "Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:/ In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure./ Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God."(He.10:5-7). God had prepared a body, which spoke of the body of the Son. In perfecting the will while he was in human likeness, the cross must surely speak the death of a malefactor in the eyes of the world but it spelled fulness in the mind of God. So the mind of God teaches us a key to his holiness, which is patience. In the mind of Christ it was obedience. It was perfection truly personified in his single sacrifice. This we see in the Psalm 139, which is about the body of Jesus Christ.
Here is the quote: "My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth./ Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them."(Ps.139:15-16)
How does the Spirit refer to it in the creation account? "The earth was without form and void" Those who approached it literally would go on to make the most egregious conclusions so much so they would drag the whole nation into their foolishness. John Scopes 'monkey trial, Tennessee in 1925 ' was a natural conclusion. God does not err. Man errs because he applies reason where faith is required.
Let Darwin score his point but the Spirit wants those who wish to be part of the Body of Christ to be obedient as the Son was. Jesus knew who were his and who were not.
That's a wonderful verse.
God sanctified his Great name in Egypt.
That reminds me of Jeremiah 23:5-8.
"Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, The LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and FROM ALL COUNTRIES whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.
Haven't happened yet!
God bless
