Revelation is all about the revealing of Jesus Christ, his creation become the exactness of himself, Christ. All accomplished by the WORKS of the cross of Christ.
It's hidden in symbols; as you study Mosses and the Prophets, those symbols are explained; yet, often they are explained by another symbol, keep studying, Christ will reveal himself to you, you will come to understand you died with Christ on his cross, YOU and Christ arose TOGETHER, a marriage, you BECAME ONE.
The entire word of God is about the kingdom of God, a kingdom of priest and gods, the IMAGE of their high priest, Jesus Christ, they are going to judge the nations with Christ.
Joshua 22:22 The LORD GOD of gods, the LORD GOD of gods ......
Exodus 7:1 And the LORD said unto Mosses, see I HAVE MADE THEE (Mosses) a god to Pharaoh ....
God made Mosses a god to JUDGE Pharaoh...... this is going to happen again ..... this time no Canaanites will be left in the land
Zachariah 14:21 Yea, every POT (we are the pot; the body, Christ the potter) in Jerusalem and in Judah SHALL BE HOLINESS unto the Lord of host: and all they ( Revelation 19:9) that sacrifice shall come and take of them (the pots of Christ), and SEETH THEREIN (be judged) in that day there shall be NO MORE CANAANITE.
Zachariah 12:8 ... and the house of David shall be as God, and the angel of the Lord before them ........
Psalms 126:6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious SEED, shall doubtless COME AGAIN with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
Revelation 21:26 And they (the pots of God, the body of Christ) shall bring the glory and the honour OF THE NATIONS into it.
The saints are going to Judge the earth, ALL JUDGEMENT was given to CHrist; you cannot be a judge and NOT BELIEVE, you were made ONE with Christ by his resurrection.
But those sacrifices could not bring cleansing of the heart & conscience, which only Christ's shed Blood could. They remained in limbo - God accepting their sacrifices, pleased to abide with them, yet looking ahead when His Own Sacrifice would bring full cleansing, new life, & a permanent rest for their souls.
The Gospel of 'Rest' that was promised to them, was not just of entering Canaan ( Deuteronomy 12:9-11; Joshua 22:43-45), but was spoken of a future Rest ( Hebrews 4:8,9; Isaiah 11:10 (both in the first & second comings of Jesus)). This was always God's Plan, even to include Gentiles in such blessing - and Jesus only could be the Sacrifice that would bring true & lasting rest for all. All the sacrifices pointed to Him & the temporary rest that Israel enjoyed (when they were faithful), could only be fully realized when Christ's Blood also applied to them, yet future. Present-day Israel is in turmoil (spiritually, physically, nationally), having rejected their Messiah. They will never have God's Rest whilst in this state. But when they see their Messiah coming in the clouds, come to Him in brokenness & repentance, having their hearts cleansed by His Blood not by sacrifices, then Hebrews 4:9 will be fully realized, "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God."
Psalms 82:6 I (Christ) have SAID, Ye are gods, the children of the most high.
Jesus himself QUOTED his OWN prophecy.
John 10:35 If HE (the spirit of prophecy) CALLED them (the children of resurrection) gods, unto whom the WORD OF GOD CAME, and the scripture CAN NOT be BROKEN.
Jesus is telling the Pharisees, they read and study the scriptures, but have no knowledge of their TRUE MEANING, very little has changed TODAY.
John 1:5 And the light shineth into darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not.
You say Psalms 82:6 means gods of this world, antichrist, sons of predition
Let's see what happens to this scripture when we apply it to mean as you define it.
I (Christ) have SAID, ye are gods (antichrist, sons of perdition, Satan, gods of this world), THE CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH.
Let's apply your definition to some other scriptures.
Deuteronomy 10:7 For the Lord your God is a God of gods (sons of perdition, gods of this world, antichrist)
Joshua 22:22 The Lord God of gods (gods of this world, sons of perdition, antichrist), the Lord God of gods ...
I hope you rethink what you are saying about GOD'S WORDS.
Could it possibly be your not rightly dividing God's Word, maybe Paul was talking about something completely opposite to what Christ was Prophesying.
My rebuttal is ALSO in LOVE.
Does the church you attend preach the KINGDOM of God, or is it like most churches and preaches heaven and hell?

Lake Mead has dried maybe to expose the evils & cleanse it. Many have prayed for years for truth exposure & crimes solved. Didn't you know there are springs of water all around that area, even going into Death Valley? & a natural underground water Basin, that flows into parts of California. Trust GOD as we see HIM work out HIS mighty will. Stop looking to anything else as your sources. Also there are several methods of cleaning sea water into drinking water, even used in Space for Astronaut survival. Huntington Beach California wanted to implement during 2016-2018, but illegal immigrant votes in the area stopped the process with petition. Many also continued to waste water, disregarding most laws, opened my eyes to what "lawlessness" is. And lawless men & women in high positions, protecting their lawlessness.

Brother S Spencer, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

I BELIEVE all on this site are seeking TRUTH and God has CAUSED them to be here for that TRUTH.
We just SHARE God's Words; it's the SPIRIT that reveals the TRUTH.

Hello Victor. I think you're referring to Joshua 22:31. If so, then if you read the account from verse 1, Joshua had blessed the two and half tribes that went to claim & live on the East side of the Jordan River (Reuben, Gad, & the half tribe of Manasseh). However, when they went to their lands, they decided to build an altar to the Lord. When the other tribes on the West side of Jordan heard of this structure, they became furious & wanted to attack them for this wickedness. But after the chiefs of those nine & a half tribes consulted with the other two & a half tribes about the matter, they learned that the altar wasn't for sacrifice or worship, but simply a memorial & a witness of their connection with all the tribes. Because in the generations to come, they may not give regard to the tribes scattered on the East & West of the Jordan & this altar was simply a memorial of their common ancestry to Jacob & on to Abraham.
When the priest & the tribal chiefs heard this, they were appeased. So then in verse 31, we read that the priest (Phinehas) spoke to those two & half tribes & said that since they haven't trespassed (& angered) the Lord because of this altar, the children of Israel (the whole twelve tribes) have been saved from the anger & punishment of the Lord, even as they encountered at Peor (the plague) & concerning Achan's sin that resulted in the victory of the Amorites over them. So the people were much relieved that no sin in such a manner was committed here in Joshua chapter 22, & their lives were spared from God's punishment. I hope that helps you in understanding this portion of Scripture.
That39s all she wrote on Matthew 12:42 - 4 years ago
Joshua 22:22
"The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)"
Verse 30-before attacking in war the Israelites living on the western side of the Jordan investigated the report they heard about the Israelites living on the eastern side. This kept them from acting hastily.
whew! - this was a close call - a good lesson here is to not be too quick to mistrust people's intentions. Both sides harbored mistrust of one another - one thought the other was abandoning god - the other thought they were going to be cast off by their brethren
Charlie frank:I understand what you are saying they did just REACT but I think that after all they have been through they were so scared that the inquity of this altar would DAMN THEM ALL,sin was to be kept out of these peculiar childrens lives,GOD chose them for this special gift and they did the first thing they thought they had to do,but it worked out in the end,thankfully,later some do stray..
The long and short of it all is to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commandments, and to cleave unto Him, and to serve Him with all our heart and with all our soul.
Joshua 22:5 - I appreciate this verse at it shows that we should do our utmost to obey God's law. Today, people have disregarded God's laws b disobeying them, and then saying it's okay to do so because God loves you. NOT SO! This scripture encourages us to give our best to Jehovah God. We must worship with ALL our heart and ALL our soul.
There are many scriptures concening this one man. But not many knows who he is. the fact is he is yet to come and reveil what he knows.David will be his son not king David he is still waiting for his resurrection. his body is in ISREAL . the FACT is this man does have a son called David and also a son by the name Jesus . and all three are liveing now on this earth today.Matt.22:42 -45--- 11 SAMUEL 22:1-3 --- 11Samual 18 :18 11 Samual 7:11-28---Rev.1:5,8,4--- 2:17---4:12,1419:12
verse five joshua says keep the lords commandments and the law and to walk in his ways this is after they slaughtered thousands ofpeople i m puzzled why did t he tell them to follow the lords commandments before they attacked and killes all these people
the name of the altar is the name that the creater gave to moses ingraved in a rock reff deut.32 :i-4 this will be his name when the creater comes to earth as a man his name shall be called ed this confirms joshua 24:27
