Happy Thanksgiving anons! May God bless us all everyone.
Deuteronomy 25:19, Blot out Amalek.The Hebrew name Amalek literally means “I am king.” Remember how the people of Amalek attacked the children of Israel as they were coming out of Egypt (Exod 17:8)? These heathens attacked the weary, stragglers and weak Israelites who were falling behind in the rear ranks (Deut 25:18). For this evil deed, Elohim put a curse on them. What can we learn about Israel’s ancient enemies and it relates to us today? Who are the modern “Amalekites” and how can the saints defeat them?
Israel is no blushing maiden by any means, her sins are as bad or worse than her enemies around her, that's what the bible says. It ALSO says that she will be judged for being worse than her sisters Sodom and Gomorrah but…..after her punishment God will remove her blindness and restore her. So yeah, they have not played nice, but then again nobody else has either. The determining factor is God Himself. HE decides how things are going to go down, not you, no me, not anyone but Him, and He says He will restore Israel, so that is what will happen.
Go read Ezekiel, she will get flesh and sinew initially, but at first she will not have the spirit of God within her. So physically she exists, but spiritually she still has a ways to go. Probably not very far off now though, the shit is gonna hit the fan.
You are obviously clueless. You think the ancient prophets didn't know what they were talking about? They gave out the information that God TOLD them to give out. In fact, God even kinda brags about how He says what He is going to do BEFORE He does it. He's trying to teach Israel as well as the whole world He is the boss, and action have consequences. Ignore at your own peril.
Do you even understand what the word testament really means? It means contract. Old contract and new contract. The first one was between God and Abraham and his descendants. They fucked up and disobeyed. God got fed up and decided to take a different approach. The new contract is between God and anyone who will recognize His son and what He accomplished. God did not give the Israelites all those temple rules because He wanted all the food, He did it so that His word, His rules would stay relatively fresh in the peoples minds to try to keep them on track. The flesh is weak, it is the main source of sin, that is why in the New testament it focuses on the spirit, the intent. God deemed Abraham clean because Abraham BELIEVED God and acted accordingly. It was counted as righeousness. God doesn't want the people who mouth the words, but people who DO the words.
Matthew 23:23-31
23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
Sorry, didn't realize at first you are not the same anon.
That's fine, I agree with you. God knows the future, I almost posted that as well but it was getting too long winded.
You trying to imply I'm not American or something?
Just to clear it up, what is a covenant? A CONTRACT.
