It is not an old picture.
Gentiles have the option to become Israel, but most reject it.
Gentiles became one with Jews when God took two men and made them one.
Gentiles broke the covenant that made the two men one when they converted to another religion and another worship system and so they remain gentiles.
A man made out of two men is no longer a complete man when one leaves the others as in the day Gentiles left Judah.
The brotherhood was broken and smashed to pieces.
Now there are gentiles claiming to be Jews who are not Jews, gentiles claiming a new covenant when they themselves have rejected the covenant.
Not only does the gentile have to become Israel, but he also has to raise a son, and unless he raises this son, he will not give birth along with the other virgins who give birth on firstfruits.
Unless the gentile has returned to respecting the Torah and unless he has converted back to God's worship system, he will remain a gentile and he will not be counted when the temple is measured, because the people in the outer court of Gentiles will not be counted among the brethren.
The majority who are still Egyptians who went back to Egypt are killed and only a few are left like the shaking of a tree.
Not only does a gentile have to become Israel, and not only does he have to raise a son, but he must have an extra vessel that he himself has filled with oil and this takes a long time.
An extra vessel is a person, you will not be gathered alone, it will be as in the days of Noah that two by two will come, not a man and a man, not a woman and a woman, those will be cut in two.
Revelation is the unfolding of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippor, and we see this in 3 views, we see it happen in the seals, in the trumpets and in the bowls, and after this the Sukkot takes place and the Sukkot is the crushing of the grapes.
This is the judgment against almost every Christian who has gone back to Egypt, and this is the death of almost every single Christian who has refused to flee the ways of Babylon and those who are left alive, who are Israel will then obtain the Simchat Torah.
Many people will be alive who are not considered Israel but they are few.
Revelation gives us quite a picture of Sukkot and the crushing of the grapes.
It is a river of blood vastly wide and 4 feet deep, and this river flows for 200 miles.
The Lord will strike Egypt and then heal it, and the whole world will become of one religion, but before this happens, the prophets detail in many places just how many people have died, and we are talking about 4 billion people or more in my estimate.
When the Lord strikes those in Egypt and in Assyria, they all know exactly why it has happened, exactly why, and this is the reason the whole world becomes one religion.
Those people who obtain the reward of Shemini atzereth will shine like the stars of heaven, and those Egyptians and Assyrians left alive will beg them.
Hi Hannibal I got some questions for you!
who are all those harlots and daughter of harlots God condemns old and new testament ?
who kill his prophets and his people, who is she?
I another question and a few statements . you said
"Gentiles have the option to become Israel, but most reject it"
why is it in your mind that "becoming Israel " also means becoming jewish( the religion) when 10 /12 of the real sons of Israel are now 'Gentiles' for all intents and purposes and have been for2000 and 3000 years .. they are in their minds all Gentiles and are into loosygoosy and snugglywuggly christianity ?
I am just not understanding how when you put 2 / 12th with 10/ 12ths you came up with Judaism as our model for being God's people 'israel' ?
yes judaism has wonderful things to teach is about truth and God holiness prophesy and so much to offer... and that is not to be be underestimated for the next age... but they will/ might be there only to be speaking for the father in the new temple...
but now jesus is and always has been all way more into the loosy goosy stuff he spent 2000 years trying to teach humanity that what that relationship is and isn't and what the harlot of religion is ... and it is that usually kills those people off that learn what he is teaching ...., and why do you want to totally wipe that out in one moment by saying "Israel" is Judaism?
when some kind of knowledgeable hybrid that is 2/12ths Judaism and 10/12 christianity is or will be at least 50/ 50 because we don't know how big those branches were he is combining them together .
so exactly why are you trying to convince the blood thirsty new hooker to join with the old blood thirsty hooker? because the old and the new is just religion and "Good people " doing " GOD's work" For "God".
when even the new world Judaism is probably or maybe only about 2/ 12 of the picture and it is only going on in the temple area so ABBA Father can come play with his kids for awhile...
to prepare us all for meeting him face to face.
let's let the Father build into us what he needs from us .
not the 2/ 12ths Judaism and 10/12 Christianity (Catholicism) and such has brought to this world.. .
every one else there is plain old christians who are willing to drop their lawlessness and paganism ....
and the old blood thirsty harlot and the new blood thirsty harlots of REV are all "GOOD" people all doing what is right to them "to protect God". and how do we know the difference? between the good and the right ?
BOTH of these attempts by men to build something for God has all been a failure to bring about real relationship with the real Jehovah.
Neither of these worked the first time to create right people but only" Good"( from the tree of good and evil) people were/ are who are death and mayhem and mongering their neighbors in the name of GOD ..and death still follows in their path! yes they are at least Good because the evil ones not even mentioned are even worse or worse than worse .
since we know
those that wait upon the lord shall renew their strength , they shall mount up on wings of eagles and run and not grow weary, they shall walk and not faint.......
so what will the new look like in the new world ?
well best I can guess probably 2/10 Judaism's ceremonies and their feasts and temple worship ,( meaning not easter and all that is pagan in the churches..) and way more lawful at a circumcised heart not just flesh type.
then 10 / 12 christian with about 2/10 less loosygoosysnugglewuggly with 0 % flippant lawlessness and paganism swirled into it .
so you will excuse me if I decided to go wait in a cave with other complainers grumblers and debtors.. and wait for David to show up!
because as far as I can tell I don't want to be part of either harlot and I really am not sure what to do anymore until David does do what ONLY David can do , and that is to build Israel the way he wants it .
and it won't be old wine in bloody wineskins .
yes judaism has things to teach to christianity , so teach on.. but stop promoting old whoredom.. christians who ran from the old bloody witch.. and then instead have been dancing with pagans forever. got things to learn !
but when Israel is built it won't look just like Judaism either. it will look at least 50% ( the two sticks) or 2/ 12 christian-ish .. since I don't know which I think it is ..I don't want to be part of any Good harlots anymore..
I will wait for him to do it. is that OK with you ?
Jesus cried over Jerusalem before he died because he couldn't draw them in under his wings and protect them , that is what harlots do us....... to me that is the important issue and always has been . Can he draw you and under his wings. a. so we better start there. nothing else is important!
because there won't be one good bloody harlot in heaven/ his kingdom ..
