I would read it if I was you

 

I tell ya what

Keep muttering,

keep snickering,

keep rolling your eyes.


Think God don't know?

What you are doing?

How do you think I know?

and you think he don't?

Absolutely just boggles my mind.


Cause here is what its called:

Murmuring:

a subdued or private expression of discontent or dissatisfaction, a soft, low, or indistinct sound produced by a person or group of people speaking quietly or at a distance.



And what you are murmuring against

is

 GODS WILL

that the earth gets purged of evil.

That starts 

with the elimination of  the armies

of the world.


And that is bout to start.

Witness:

Satellite imagery confirms 

possible strike prep on Iran

( more on that later.)



ALSO?

It is 

rebelling against Gods will 

that 

his messenger 

tells you about it 

ahead of time.


Got all of that?

Good then.


Okay?

Cause its follow the bouncing ball time lol.


"It is essential that we stand back from our presumptions and prejudices and listen carefully to what the Biblical text is telling us. We are living in exciting times, but we need to be diligent in our study of God’s Word. The only certain barrier to truth is the presumption that we already have it."

~

Chuck Missler 2009


(Kinda like Korah and his followers did back in the day, they made a presumption 

about having

a part of the truth 

and it cost them, 

more than they could have ever imagined.)


"...but what you want to do is 

be consistent with God's will."

~

Missler, Genesis session 8

between 33:23-34:50 mark.

My comments on that:

"Remember that, there is an important post brewing so to speak, coming up here in the near future that will focus very specifically on just that, believers going against Gods willwhen it was done, what happened to those who did it, and why it is so very important for us to remember it, right now this very instant in our current circumstances."


"thy kingdom come, 

thy will be done, 

on earth 

as it is in heaven"


Do you mean it?

Or do you just say it?

Belief is easy in comfort.

TRUSTING

in his will

when it doesn't make sense to you?

And when you don't like the messenger he sent 

to make it make sense to you?

IS NEXT LEVEL STUFF.

And its what he is going to  force you to do.

I guarantee it.

Go read that headline again.


So here we go :-).


Last Sunday, 3/23/25 I thought you know what? I'm going to look at the lectionary and try and pick out which passage of scripture Pastor Bridgette will be preaching on.

So I did.

First time I have ever done that BTW, 

and now I understand why:


First Reading 

Isaiah 55:1-9

1 Ho, everyone who thirsts,

come to the waters;

and you that have no money,

come, buy and eat!

Come, buy wine and milk

without money and without price.

2Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread,

and your labor for that which does not satisfy?

Listen carefully to me, and eat what is good,

and delight yourselves in rich food.

(Not exactly milk.)

3Incline your ear, and come to me;

listen, so that you may live.

I will make with you an everlasting covenant,

my steadfast, sure love for David.

4See, I made him a witness to the peoples,

a leader and commander for the peoples.

5See, you shall call nations that you do not know,

and nations that do not know you shall run to you

because of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel,

for he has glorified you.

6Seek the LORD while he may be found,

call upon him while he is near;

7let the wicked forsake their way,

and the unrighteous their thoughts;

let them return to the LORD, that he may have mercy on them,

and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

8For my thoughts are not your thoughts,

nor are your ways my ways, says the LORD.

9For as the heavens are higher than the earth,

so are my ways higher than your ways

and my thoughts than your thoughts.


I thought, 

I don't think it will be that one, 

(There are four passages 

to choose from:

Old Testament,

New Testament,

Psalms,

Gospel.

(Matthew Mark Luke and John)

I thought she's already preached 

on that passage before, 

(I think)

so probably not.


Next up:

Psalm 63:1-8


1 O God, you are my God, I seek you,

my soul thirsts for you;

my flesh faints for you,

as in a dry and weary land 

where there is no water.

(No righteousness.)

2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,

beholding your power and glory.

3Because your steadfast love is better than life,

my lips will praise you.

4So I will bless you as long as I live;

I will lift up my hands and call on your name.


5 My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast,

(That aint exactly milk again BTW.)


and my mouth praises you with joyful lips

6when I think of you on my bed,

and meditate on you in the watches of the night;

7for you have been my help,

and in the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.

8My soul clings to you;

your right hand upholds me.


I though well that's similar in theme 

to the first passage from Isaiah 

so I don't think it will be that one either.


Next up

1 Corinthians 10:1-13

(Oh boy, look out now.)


1 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, 2 and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, 3and all ate the same spiritual food, 4and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ

5Nevertheless, 

God was not pleased 

with most of them, 

and they were struck down 

in the wilderness.

(Yikes! 

Definitely wont be this one 

that's for sure.)


6 Now these things occurred as examples for us

so that we might not desire evil as they did. 


7 Do not become idolaters as some of them did; as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and they rose up to play."


8 We must not indulge in sexual immorality 

(It was more than just sex outside of marriage,

it was homosexuality, bestiality, Incest, just all kinds of profane things. They were acting like the people did in the lands that they were going to be replacing them.)


as some of them did, 

and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day


9 We must not put Christ to the test

(Thats what you are doing when you reject his will.)


as some of them did, and were destroyed by serpents. 

10 And do not complain 

as some of them did, 

and were 

destroyed by the destroyer


Thats when I about fell out because of:

"destroyed by the destroyer"

Notice Paul didn't say Satan but:

"destroyed by the destroyer"

I was like, why haven't scholars ect, 

put that verse with:

"The destroyer" 

of 

Exodus 12:13, 

13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, 

and the plague 

shall not be upon you 

to destroy you

when I smite 

the land of Egypt.


vs. 23

 For the Lord will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the Lord will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.

(Exactly 10 verses apart which I find interesting as chapters and verses were not imparted to the text in one complete version until the 1560 Geneva bible, and 10 signifies completion and that was the last plague visited upon Egypt.)



Thanks babe :-).


As well as:

Revelation 9:11

11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.

(That name means Destroyer in both languages, and the reference to Greek and Hebrew is alluding to:

Jew and Gentiles

at the end of an age.

Us, now.

Back to the scripture passage:)


11 These things happened to them 

to serve as an example

and they were written down 

to instruct us, 

on whom 

the ends of the ages 

(Ours is the culmination 

of ages up to this point.

Not just our age,

all of them.)

have come. 


(Not Paul and them then but us now.)


12 So 

if you think you are standing, 

watch out that you do not fall. 

13 No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it.


(Christ

the only escape,

and the testing 

at the end of our age 

is the tribulation period.)


I was so bumfuzzeled as to not even really bother reading the fourth option for pastor Bridgette :-).

Which ended up being the passage she preached on:

Luke 13:1-9

1 At that very time there were some present who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 He asked them, "Do you think that because these Galileans suffered in this way they were worse sinners than all other Galileans? 3 No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as they did. 4Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell on them — do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others living in Jerusalem? 5 No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish just as they did."

6 Then he told this parable: "A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came looking for fruit on it and found none. 7 So he said to the gardener, 'See here! For three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and still I find none. Cut it down! Why should it be wasting the soil?' 8 He replied, 'Sir, let it alone for one more year, until I dig around it and put manure on it. 9 If it bears fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.'"


I was to busy going to:

First the Geneva Bible 

with all of its references/footnotes 

to 1 Corinthians 10:1-13, 

to hopefully find out more about:

"destroyed by the destroyer."

contained in vs 10.


And here all of that passage is, 

in that Bible

along with all the reference:


1 Corinthians 10:1-13

1599 Geneva Bible

(Mine is from 1560 but I haven't found any noticeable changes between the two as of yet.)


Heading:

10 1 If God spared not the Jews, 

neither will he spare 

those who are of like condition, 

3, 4 touching the outward signs of his grace. 

14 That it is absurd, that such should be partakers of the table of the devils, who are partakers of the Lord’s Supper. 

24 To have consideration of our neighbor in things indifferent.


1 Moreover, [a]brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, that all our [b]fathers were under that cloud, and all passed through that sea,


2 [c]And were all [d]baptized unto [e]Moses, in that cloud, and in that sea,


3 And did all eat the [f]same spiritual [g]meat,


4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink (for they drank of the spiritual Rock that [h]followed them: and the Rock was [i]Christ.)


5 But with many of them God was not pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.


6 [j]Now these things are our [k]examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.


7 Neither be ye idolaters 

(Putting anything between or above you and your God.)

as were some of them, as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.


8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.


9 Neither let us tempt [l]Christ, as some of them also tempted him, and were destroyed of serpents.

(The "provocation" of Christ some commentators called it.)


10 Neither murmur ye, 

as some of them 

also 

murmured

and were destroyed of the destroyer.


(That's a lil harsher 

(to put it mildly)

than what had preceded vs 10

We will get to why that is here in a bit.)


11 Now all these things came unto them for examples, and were written to admonish us

(Warn)

upon whom 

the [m]ends of the world are come.


12 [n]Wherefore, let him that thinketh he standeth, take heed lest he fall.


13 There hath no temptation taken you, but such as appertaineth to [o]man: and God is faithful, which will not suffer you to be tempted above that you be able, but will even [p]give the issue with the temptation, that ye may be able to bear it.


(How in the world 

are you gonna cover all of that, 

and the things that passage references

in a 20 minute sermon?)


So combine that with:

"But with many of them 

God was not pleased"

and who is going to tell their flock 

it will be worse 

at the end of our age 

because we had the events alluded to

as a warning for us?


NOT MANY.


Footnotes

1 Corinthians 10:1 He setteth out that which he said, laying before them an example of the horrible judgment of God against them which had in effect the selfsame pledges, of the same adoption and salvation that we have: and yet notwithstanding when they gave themselves to idols’ feasts,

perished in the wilderness, 

(Like the one we are in now.)


being horribly 

and manifoldly punished. 

(The punishment inflicted on them in the wilderness just might have been the worse God punishment God ever inflicts on his own people.

Just stick with me, we will get to what's being talked about and why the punishment was so  bad etc here in a bit.)


Now, moreover and besides that these things are fitly spoken against them which frequented idols’ feasts, the same also seems to be alleged to this end and purpose, because many men are thus minded, that those things are not of such great weight, that God will be angry with them if they use them, so that they frequent Christian assemblies and be baptized, and receive the Communion, and confess Christ.


1 Corinthians 10:1 Paul speaketh thus in respect of the covenant, and not in respect of the persons, saving in general.


1 Corinthians 10:2 In effect the Sacrament of the old fathers were all one with ours, for they respected Christ only who offered himself unto them in divers shadows.


1 Corinthians 10:2 

All of them were baptized 

with the outward sign, 

but not in deed, 

wherewith God cannot be charged, but they themselves.


(Starting to get to the heart of the matter now.)


1 Corinthians 10:2 Moses being their guide.


1 Corinthians 10:3 The same that we do.


1 Corinthians 10:3 Manna, which was a spiritual meat to the believers, which in faith lay hold upon Christ who is the true meat.


1 Corinthians 10:4 Of the river and running Rock, which followed the people.


1 Corinthians 10:4 Did sacramentally signify Christ, so that together with the sign, there was the thing signified, and the truth itself: for God doth not offer a bare sign, but the thing signifieth by the sign, together with it which is to be received with faith.


1 Corinthians 10:6 

An amplifying of the example against them 

which are carried away with their lusts 

(Cravings)

beyond the bounds 

which God has measured out. 

(Very key.

All sin is equal before the lord as all of it separates you from him, but that does not mean their aren't tiers or different levels of sin.

A white lie isn't the same as murder.

(Ref: James 2:10, Mathew 12:31.)


Crimes against nature 

and 

the Holy Spirit 

(as referenced above 

in Mathew 12:31)

are found to be 

particularly heinous.

Reference:

Genesis 6:42 Peter 2:4Jude 5-7 

Goes right to AI, 

a form of living intelligence,

that shouldn't be here today.

Idolatry etc.)


For this is the beginning of all evil, 

as of idolatry 

(which hath gluttony 

a companion unto it) 

fornication

(Cheating on God.)

rebelling against Christ, 

murmuring, 

("a subdued or private expression 

of discontent or dissatisfaction."

Now its getting interesting.)

and such like, 

which God punished most sharply 

in that old people, 

to the end 

that we which succeed them, 

and have a more full declaration 

of the will of God, 

might by that means 

take better heed.


1 Corinthians 10:6 Some read figures: which signified our sacraments: for circumcision was to the Jews a seal of righteousness, and to us a lively pattern of Baptism, and so in the other Sacraments.


1 Corinthians 10:9 

To tempt Christ, is to provoke him to a combat 

as it were which those men do

who abuse the knowledge t

hat he hath given them

and make it to serve for a cloak 

for their lusts and wickedness.


1 Corinthians 10:11 

This our age is called the end,

 for it is the shutting up 

of all ages.


1 Corinthians 10:12 In conclusion, he descendeth to the Corinthians themselves, 

warning them that they please not themselves, 

but rather that they prevent the subtleties of Satan. 

Yet he useth an insinuation, and comforteth them, that he may not seem to make them altogether like to those wicked idolaters and contemners of Christ, which perished in the wilderness.


1 Corinthians 10:13 Which cometh of weakness.


1 Corinthians 10:13 He that would have you tempted for your profit’s sake

( So that you would make your faith stronger by resisting.)

will give you an issue to escape out of the temptation.


WOW.

JUST...WOW...


So yeah Im not even reading the passage from Luke lol, 

Im too busy looking up what is all referenced here.


THEY WERE FOUND NOT WORTHY OF DEATH.

THE GROUND SWALLOWED THEM UP ALIVE.

THEY WENT TO THE LAND OF THE DEAD ALIVE.

I personally think until judgement.

That's when everything else gets thrown in the fire.

Them, their tents, their animals

everything about them 

destroyed forever 

just like they didn't ever exist,

sent to the land of the dead alive

in an instant

AND IT WILL BE WORSE 

FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DO IT TODAY, 

THAN ITWAS FOR THEM (somehow)

BECAUSE THIS WARNING WAS SPECIFICALLY

FOR US NOW.


So now I go to my

NABRE


(The one on the left)


as it has extensive notes in it as well,

entire passage once again,

along with footnotes.


1 Corinthians 10:1-13

Chapter 10

Warning Against Overconfidence. 

1 [a]I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our ancestors were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea, 2 and all of them were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 3 All ate the same spiritual food, 4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank from a spiritual rock that followed them,[b] and the rock was the Christ. 5 Yet God was not pleased with most of them, for they were struck down in the desert.


6 [c]These things happened as examples for us, so that we might not desire evil things, as they did. 7 And do not become idolaters, as some of them did, as it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to revel.” 

8 Let us not indulge in immorality

as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell within a single day. 9 Let us not test Christ[d] as some of them did, and suffered death by serpents. 

10 Do not grumble 

as some of them did, 

and suffered death by the destroyer. 


11 These things happened to them as an example, and they have been written down as a warning to us, upon whom the end of the ages has come.[e] 12 Therefore, whoever thinks he is standing secure should take care not to fall.[f] 13 No trial has come to you but what is human. God is faithful and will not let you be tried beyond your strength; but with the trial he will also provide a way out, so that you may be able to bear it.


Warning Against Idolatry.[g]


Footnotes

10:1–5 Paul embarks unexpectedly upon a panoramic survey of the events of the Exodus period. The privileges of Israel in the wilderness are described in terms that apply strictly only to the realities of the new covenant (“baptism,” “spiritual food and drink”); interpreted in this way they point forward to the Christian experience (1 Cor 10:1–4). 


But those privileges 

did not guarantee God’s 

permanent pleasure (1 Cor 10:5).


10:4 A spiritual rock that followed them: the Torah speaks only about a rock from which water issued, but rabbinic legend amplified this into a spring that followed the Israelites throughout their migration. Paul uses this legend as a literary type: he makes the rock itself accompany the Israelites, and he gives it a spiritual sense. 

The rock was the Christ: 

in the Old Testament, 

Yahweh is the Rock of his people 

(cf. Dt 32, Moses’ song 

to Yahweh the Rock). 

Paul now applies this image to the Christ, the source of the living water, the true Rock that accompanied Israel, guiding their experiences in the desert.

10:6–13 This section explicitates the typological value of these Old Testament events: 

the desert experiences of the Israelites 

are examples, meant as warnings,

 to deter us from similar sins 

(idolatry, immorality, etc.) 

and from a similar fate.

(The immorality is 

not accepting Gods will 

when he has made it abundantly clear to you, 

through his servant,

and your fate will most assuredly be worse, 

not the same,

 because you had the warning 

specifically addressed to you.)


10:9 Christ: to avoid Paul’s concept of Christ present in the wilderness events, some manuscripts read “the Lord.”


10:11 Upon whom the end of the ages has come: it is our period in time toward which past ages have been moving and in which they arrive at their goal.

(And one of those goals is:

Ridding the world of evil.

Starting with the armies of the world.

And we are seeing the start of that process.

See the headline referenced above about Iran.)


10:12–13 Take care not to fall: 

the point of the whole comparison with Israel 

is to caution against overconfidence, 

a sense of complete security 

(Pretribulation rapture much?)


(1 Cor 10:12). This warning is immediately balanced by a reassurance, based, however, on God (1 Cor 10:13).

10:14–22 The warning against idolatry from 1 Cor 10:7 is now repeated (1 Cor 10:14

and explained in terms of the effect of sacrifices: 

all sacrifices, 

Christian (1 Cor 10:16–17), 

Jewish (1 Cor 10:18), 

or pagan (1 Cor 10:20), 

establish communion. 

But communion with Christ is exclusive, incompatible with any other such communion 

(1 Cor 10:21). 

Compare the line of reasoning at 1 Cor 6:15.


WOW, once again.

Pretty much matches up with the footnotes from the Geneva Bible but in a more modern vernacular, and way less harsh.

Go figure right?

So now Im like, Okay lol, where's that 

Scofield version of the King James

Lol. What did he have to say about it? Tons of notes there as well. I'll get ready for church here sometime I suppose lol.


Once again with the entire text foot notes etc.


Israel lost in the wilderness

(Christendom today for all practical purposes)


1 Corinthians 10:1-15


10 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our pfathers were under the qcloud, and all passed through the rsea;


2 And were all sbaptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;


3 And did all eat the same spiritual tmeat;


4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they udrank of vthat spiritual wRock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.


5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: 

for they were xoverthrown in the wilderness.


6 Now these things ywere our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.


7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, zThe people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.


8 Neither let us commit aafornication, as bbsome of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.


9 Neither let us ccput ddChrist, as some of them also eetempted, and were destroyed of ffserpents.


10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also amurmured, 

and were destroyed of the destroyer.


Wilderness experiences as an example

11 Now all these things bhappened unto them for cexamples: and they are dwritten for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the eages are come.


12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth 

take heed lest he fall.


13 There hath no ftemptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not gpermit you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make hthe way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.


14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.


15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I dsay.

DETOUR TIME

Those verses I am going to include here:


NUMBERS  14:26-45

26 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron: 

27 “How long will this wicked community 

grumble against me? 

I have heard the complaints 

of these grumbling Israelites. 

(If I hear? sense? feel?

The frequency?

The vibration?

Of the complaints 

of those doing the grumbling?

Then God most assuredly does.


Told my buddy 

at his garage 

a LONG LONG time ago:


"People aren't fighting against me,

they are fighting against 

the power that is using me."


And they will loose.

They have.

They are.

They will.


THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS EXERCISE HAS CAME INTO FOCUS AT THIS POINT.

GODS HAD ENOUGH.

AND HE IS LETTING YOU KNOW IT.

AGAIN.

(I started working on this Friday, its incredible to me, who many times we or I start working on something, and then worship in one way or another corresponds somehow to what was being worked on, and last Sunday 3/23 to this Sunday 3/30 is a good example of that.)


28 So tell them, ‘As surely as I live, declares the Lord, I will do to you the very thing I heard you say: 29 In this wilderness your bodies will fall—every one of you twenty years old or more who was counted in the census and who has grumbled against me. 30 Not one of you will enter the land I swore with uplifted hand to make your home, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun

(Two people, Interesting.

We see that again 

with the spies and Rahab.

Joshua 2:1

Two.

Seems like there is always two

to send out first.

Trailblazers as it were.

Rev 11:3)


31 As for your children that you said would be taken as plunder, I will bring them in to enjoy the land you have rejected. 32 But as for you, your bodies will fall in this wilderness. 33 Your children will be shepherds here for forty years, suffering for your unfaithfulness, until the last of your bodies lies in the wilderness. 

(Gotta remember that's exactly where Christendom is these days, a wilderness, lost, adrift, aimless, worldly, rebellious etc.)


34 For forty years—one year for each of the forty days you explored the land—

you will suffer for your sins 

and know what it is like 

to have me against you.’ 

35 I, the Lord, have spoken, and 

I will surely do these things 

to this whole wicked community, 

which has banded together 

against me. 

They will meet their end in this wilderness; 

here they will die.

(He did it to them then

But he wont do it to us now?

 If we behave the same?

Its simply 

well beyond presumptuous.)


36 So the men Moses had sent to explore the land, who returned and made the whole community grumble against him by spreading a bad report about it— 37 these men who were responsible for spreading the bad report about the land 

were struck down 

and 

died of a plague 

(Remember that.

Exactly the Same 

as the firstborn in Egypt.

Exactly.

"died of a plague".)


before the Lord. 

38 Of the men who went to explore the land,

only Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh survived.

39 When Moses reported this to all the Israelites, they mourned bitterly. 40 Early the next morning they set out for the highest point in the hill country, saying, “Now we are ready to go up to the land the Lord promised. Surely we have sinned!”

41 But Moses said, “Why are you disobeying the Lord’s command? This will not succeed! 

(Sound familiar? See above)


42 Do not go up, because the Lord is not with you. You will be defeated by your enemies, 43 for the Amalekites and the Canaanites will face you there. Because you have turned away from the Lord, he will not be with you and you will fall by the sword.”

44 Nevertheless, in their presumption they went up toward the highest point in the hill country, though neither Moses nor the ark of the Lord’s covenant moved from the camp. 45 Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in that hill country came down and attacked them and beat them down all the way to Hormah.

Neither let us commit fornication,

fell in one day three and twenty thousand

Cf. Numbers 25:9

A discrepancy has been imagined. 

1 Corinthians 10:8. gives the number of deaths in "one day"; Numbers 25:9, the total number of deaths "in the plague." 

So one of the early proponents of a Pretribulation rapture completely leaves out any kind of comments about 

not following Gods will being done 

in the end times just like they didn't want to follow the will of God through Moses when they rebelled in the desert?

(Unger did the same in his bible dictionary entry about Korah, completely ignored the warning for us now.)

That's kinda intriguing.

Forget about the discrepancy

 in the causality figures, 

tell us about 

the warning being issued!

Okay so  that was the Scofield  version of the King James, what about the Heavy hitter?


(Mendenhall Reference Bible, KJV)

What verses does it cross-reference with:

1 Corinthians 10:10

Neither murmur ye, 

as rsome of them also murmured

and rwere destroyed of rthe destroyer.

with?


Exodus 16:2

And the whole Congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses, and against Aaron in the wilderness.


(It might as well be against me and honey right now.

See how this works? All I was trying to do was take a guess at what passage of scripture Pastor Bridgette might be speaking on and look where we are ending up. YOU might think its a coincidence, WE know better. None of this was/is an accident. Gods trying to tell you something, trying to warn you, are you listening? YA MIGHT WANNA BE. )


Numbers 14:37

Even those men 

that did bring up that vile slander 

upon the land, 

shall die by a plague 

before the Lord.


Exodus 12:23

For the Lord will pass by to smite the Egyptians: and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel and on the two door cheeks, the Lord will pass over the door, and will not suffer the [a]destroyer to come into your houses to plague you.


So the Mendenhall references the Destroyer in Exodus, 

but leaves out the reference to the destroyer found in 

Revelation 9:11:

  And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.


Okay, moving on, 

what about biblehub.com?

What does it cross reference 

1st Corinthians 10:10 with?

referenced.


Alrighty then, 

lets see what some commentators

 have to say about:


1 Corinthians 10:10


Neither murmur ye

as some of them also murmured, 

and were destroyed of the destroyer.


Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers


(10) Neither murmur ye.—The reference here is to Numbers 16:41-47, and the historical event alluded to—viz., 

the murmuring of the Israelites 

against their God-given leaders

Moses and Aaron—is analogous to the murmuring of the Corinthians against their Apostle, St. Paul. 


(As well as the current mummering's 

against me and honey right now)


It is noticeable that St. Paul attributes the death of the people to the Destroyer—i.e., God’s messenger sent to destroywhile in Numbers they are said to have perished by the “plague.” Every pestilence that swept over nations to purify them was a messenger from God. 

(Covid, second woe)


Thus in Psalm 78:50 

God is said to give 

their life over to the pestilence,” 

which in Exodus 12:23 

is spoken of as “the destroyer.


Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Neither murmur ye - 

Do not repine 

at the 

allotments of Providence

("God's caring provision 

for his people

 as he guides them 

in their journey 

of faith through life,

 accomplishing his purpose 

in them.")

or complain of His dealings.


(And I wouldn't do it

particularly on a Sunday

during worship, in Gods house

or from from a pulpit.)


(Added "or from"  to that comment

on Sunday 3/30, 

the rest of that 

was written before the Saturday previous)

See above with working on things 

and then them matching up 

with Worship on Sunday.)


As some of them also murmured - Numbers 14:2

The ground of their complaining was, 

that they had been disappointed

(Just like the fat, lazy, lukewarm, 

apostate church of Western Civilization 

is going to be disappointed 

when there is no "Pretribulation Rapture.")


that they had been brought out of a land of plenty into a wilderness of want; and that instead of being conducted at once to the land of promise, they were left to perish in the desert. 

(He did it then, but he wont do it now? To us?

That logic is a lil convoluted to say the least.)


They therefore complained of their leaders

("Do not repine 

at the allotments of Providence

or complain of His dealings."

YOU ARE GOING AGAINST GOD"S WILL

JUST LIKE THE ISRAELITES DID IN THE DESERT

AND IT WILL MOST ASSUREDLY COST YOU.)


and proposed to return again into Egypt.

 

And were destroyed of the destroyer

That is, they were doomed to die in the wilderness 

without seeing the land of Canaan; Exodus 14:29

(And you will also die in our wilderness,

have it your way.)


The "destroyer" here 

is understood by many to mean 

the "angel of death," 

so often referred to in the Old Testament, and usually called by the Jews "Sammael." The work of death, however, is attributed to an angel in Exodus 12:23; compare Hebrews 11:28. It was customary for the Hebrews to regard most human events as under the direction of angels. In Hebrews 2:14

(Death in sin, is what is referenced there,

not physical death. (ref: Revelation 1:18)


he is described as he "that had the power of death;" compare the Book of Wisdom 18:22, 25. The simple idea here, however, is, that they died for their sin, 

(Which was:

Rebelling against God's will,

on full display through 

Moses, Aaron and Miriam

(Exod 7:1, Exod 15:20)


and were not permitted 

to enter the promised land,

(Not you though,

God wouldnt do that to you right?

That is 100% exactly

what Satan wants you to think.

Ya might wanna rethink some things.

"Warnings of overconfidence"

the one heading said.)


Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

10. some of them … murmured—upon the death of Korah and his company, who themselves were murmurers (Nu 16:41, 49). 

Their murmurs against Moses and Aaron 

were virtually murmurs against God 

(compare Ex 16:8, 10). 

Paul herein glances 

at the Corinthian murmurs against himself, 

the apostle of Christ...


(Exactly the Same as now

with the murmurings against me and honey.

Just bring me the other guy that has accurately predicted as much across various disciplines in the last 10-12 years (Spiritual gift of prophecy). You cant, he doesn't exist, yet some are just not content unless they have someone(s) to murmur against.

You will meet a worse fate.

God is gonna start this all over

so that when Christ returns

Nothing but the beautiful Bride will be here for him.

Dont like it?

Dont like me?

Dont like us?

TOUGH!

Deal with it

or face the consequences 

just like those who rebelled in the wilderness did before you 

to serve as an example to you right now. 

You are not heeding 

God's admonishment to you 

in the least.

IT IS THE ENTIRE REASON 

ALL OF THIS FELL IN MY LAP.

IT IS LITERALY THAT CLOSE.

(Official start of the last of Daniels 70 7's

Tribulation time.)


the destroyer

THE same destroying angel 

sent by God as in

Ex 12:23,


 and 2Sa 24:16.

(But again, no reference to 

Revelation  9:11

And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.

But 2 Samuel 24:16 

that sure did catch my attention:


A Plague on Israel

15So the LORD sent a plague upon Israel from that morning until the appointed time, and seventy thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died. 16

But when the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the LORD relented from the calamity and said to the angel who was destroying the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand now!”

At that time the angel of the LORD was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. 17When David saw the angel striking down the people, he said to the LORD, “Surely I, the shepherd, have sinned and acted wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? Please, let Your hand fall upon me and my father’s house.”…


That's the destroyer angel 

at the start

Exodus 12:13, 23

Numbers 16:41-50


The middle as it were, 

listed above in 

2 Samuel 24:16


and the end

Revelation 9:11.


In all three of those instances

that dealt with gods people 

in those events?

God finally called off 

the Destroying angel.

Reference the verses 

above as well as 

Matthew 24:22.


The destroyer in Revelation 9:11 being of Satan is merely what we have convinced ourselves of, because we are uncomfortable with the facts scripture points out so clearly for us.

(See Missler note at the beginning of the piece about preconceived notions etc.)


That verse 

has to do with us now, 

That? 

That were not comfortable with. 

The other passages 

were for them back then, 

That? 

That we are more than comfortable with.


Has to be African right ?

Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

Neither murmur ye,.... 

Against the true apostles of Christ, 

and faithful ministers of the word

(However unpopular or out of fashion it may be.

Genesis 6 etc.

The Council Of Nicaea was 1600  years ago.

Got to go back to go forward )


nor against 

the laws 

and ordinances of Christ, 

or providences of God; 


(Using who he does 

to fulfill his will through them:




Your prayer list have:

"Power and authority 
to do your will."

On it?

For years on end now?

Or you just wanna come roll your eyes etc
at who Gods chosen in church on Sunday


Dont bother telling me I already know.

If your prayer list does have that on it?
Were you saying that prayer 
while you lived in a garage for two years 
with everybody thinking you were nuts 
but you knowing you were doing God's will?

With a Nickle in your pocket?

FOR WEEKS?

I mean if that s the case?
Then we have got to get together 
and compare notes.)


so some of the members 

of this church did, 

or were inclined to do:

(Murmuring.)

(Church people wouldn't 

still be doing that would they?

No way!

Sarcasm, the highest form of humor.


I'm tell ya Gods fed up with it.

He has had enough.

Watch and see how this goes.)


as some of them also murmured: 

as against the Lord, 

so against Moses and Aaron. 


(They didnt ever realize they were murmuring against God's will, they think they are doing it against people they have an issue with. This is why it is blasphemy, it is against the spirit, and if you don't even know you are doing it? you wont ever ask for forgiveness from it, therefore they were sent to the land of the dead without having ever died, 

They weren't even worth killing. 

He wouldn't even waste his time to do it,

death was to good for them

and since we have the knowledge of the warning? 

If we chose to act in a likewise manner?

Our fate will be worse somehow.)


The people of Israel were very prone unto, and often guilty of this sin; but what the apostle here has respect unto, is either their murmuring upon the report the spies made of the good land, in Numbers 14:1, or that of Korah and his company against Moses and Aaron, as principal officers

who were for setting all upon a level;


("We are all Holy here,

what gives you the right?


Numbers 16:3

They came together against Moses and Aaron and told them, “You have taken too much upon yourselves! For everyone in the entire congregation is holy, and the LORD is in their midst. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the LORD?”


(Some are elevated for God's purposes

Not everybody is Moses.

People wouldn't even wanna be 

if they were anyway.

See above about garage living, 

nickle in your pocket for weeks etc etc.

Get over it.)


and of all the people against them, 

for the death of these men, 

Numbers 16:1,

 and 

were destroyed of the destroyer


meaning either some judgment of God upon them, as the earth's opening and swallowing up Korah and all that belonged unto him

and the fire that came down from heaven, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense

(It wasnt their place.)

and the plague which swept away fourteen thousand and seven hundred of those that murmured against Moses and Aaron, on the account of the death of the said persons

and any other judgment by which the carcasses of those fell in the wilderness, that murmured upon the report of the spies; or else since angels were usually employed by God, in inflicting such judgments, 

by the destroyer 

may be meant an angel

such an one as smote the firstborn in Egypt, 

and bears the same name, Hebrews 11:28 

and as smote Israel with a pestilence 

upon David's numbering the people, 

and was about to have destroyed Jerusalem, 

had he not been restrained, 2 Samuel 24:15  

and as, smote an hundred fourscore and five thousand in the camp of the Assyrians, in one night, 2 Kings 19:35

So that though an angel may be intended, it is not necessary, on account of the character given him, to understand an evil angel; it is true indeed, that Satan is by the Jews (a) called "the destroyer"; and Samuel, the same with Satan, is called "the angel of death"; to which the allusion is in Hebrews 2:14 and evil angels are frequently styled , "destroying angels"

(They aren't evil, 

they are all

"ministering spirits"

doing Gods will.)


 (b); as distinct from ministering ones, 

("Evil angels" as apart from "Demons" or "Evil Spirits"

 (that needed bodies)

 are simply not in Biblical demonology)

and to which some think the apostle here refers.


(a) T. Bab. Beracot, fol. 16. 2.((b) T. Bab. Kiddushin, fol. 72. 1. Beracot, fol. 51. 1.


Meyer's NT Commentary

1 Corinthians 10:10. Nor murmur, etc.; 

expression of contumacious  

(stubbornly or willfully disobedient to authority.) 

discontent (Matthew 20:11; Php 2:14), 

without right or reason... 

If, however, what Paul has here in view is the murmuring against Moses and Aaron after the death of Korah and his company (Numbers 16:41; Numbers 16:49), then his prohibition must refer not to discontent against God (which was, moreover, referred to already in 1 Corinthians 10:9), but only to 

murmuring against the divinely commissioned teachers 

(Paul, Apollos, and others), 

who, in their position and authoritative exercise of discipline, corresponded to the type of 

Moses and Aaron 

as the theocratic leaders 

and teachers of 

the rebellious people... 


(Somebody has even attempted?

To teach more you more

about Biblical Demonology?

Eschatology?

End-time prophecy?

Difficult passages of scripture?

Genesis 6:1-4?

Revelation 20:4-6?

while living in a garage broke AF?

Just because you might not have

Luke 4:24

24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country.)


ἀπώλλ. ὑπὸ τ. ὀλοθρ.] namely, the 14,700, whose destruction (Numbers 16:46 ff.) 


is ascribed to the plague 

(מַגֵּפָף) of God

Paul defines this more closely 

as wrought by the Destroyer 

(Hesychius, ΛΥΜΕΏΝ), 

who is the executor 

of the divine plague, 

just as in Exodus 12:23 


the מַשְׁחִית executes the plague (נגף) of God,—this personal rendering of משׁחית (according to others, pernicies), which was the traditional one from the earliest times among Jews and Christians alike, being followed by the apostle also. The ὈΛΟΘΡΕΥΤΉς (Ὁ ὈΛΟΘΡΕΎΩΝ, Exodus 12:23; Hebrews 11:28; Wis 18:25. Comp 2 Samuel 24:16; Isaiah 37:36; Job 33:22, al[1611]; Acts 12:23

is the angel commissioned by God 

to carry out the slaughter

and he again is:

 neither to be conceived of as 

a) an evil angel 

(a conception still foreign to the old Hebrew theology in general; see also 1 Chronicles 21:12; 2 Chronicles 32:21; 2Ma 15:22-23), 


b) nor rationalized into a pestilence...


Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges


10. Neither murmur ye] 

See Exodus 16:2; Exodus 17:2; Numbers 14:2-29; Numbers 16:41.

Numbers 14:2

All the Israelites grumbled 

against Moses and Aaron, 

the whole community saying to them, 

“If only we had died in the land of Egypt,” (Bondage)

or 

“If only we would die here in the wilderness!


Numbers 14:28-29

28 Tell them:[c] “By my life”—oracle of the Lord—“I will do to you just what I have heard you say. 29 Here in the wilderness your dead bodies shall fall. Of all your men of twenty years or more, enrolled in your registration, who grumbled against me.


Be careful what you wish for with God.

He's God.


New American Bible Footnote

14:28–29 God punished the grumblers 

by giving them their wish; cf. v. 2. 

Their lack of trust in God 

(Thats whats gonna cost you right there. 

Believing in him is one thing, 

trusting in him 100% 

Is quite another 

especially in times of hardship.)

is cited in 1 Cor 10:10 

Neither murmur ye, 

as some of them also murmured, 

and were destroyed of the destroyer.


and Hebrews 3:12–18 

12 Take heed, brethren, 

lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief

in departing from the living God.

13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14 For we are made partakers of Christ,

 if we hold the beginning of our confidence 

stedfast unto the end;

(Now)


15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, 

harden not your hearts, 

as in the provocation. 

(The whole numbers episode.)

16 For some, 

when they had heard, 

did provoke: 

howbeit not all 

that came out of Egypt by Moses.

17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? 

was it not with them that had sinned, 

whose carcases fell in the wilderness?

(By not trusting in his will.)


18 And to whom sware he that 

they should not enter into his rest

(That is what Sunday is all about:

"entering into his rest" but

 in a much broader eternal sense.

Missler.

Genesis Session 8.)


but to them that believed not?


As a warning for Christians.

Hebrews 3:12–18 above was.


So that's two warnings

Referring to that event,

might as well make it three:


Jude 5

Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that 

the Lord[a] at one time delivered 

his people out of Egypt, 

but later destroyed those 

who did not believe.


"did not believe"

 as in:

Not us.

Not now.

Not here.

Not you.

Not her.

God wouldn't do that to us.

It's not his will for yall etc.


He has had enough of trying to show you,

tell you, ect, 

so now he is warning you

and if you dont think so?

It's pretty much 

the entire reason for this piece.


Remember, I went looking to see 

if I could guess correctly 

Pastor Bridgette's Scripture for last Sunday

and this is where I ended up.


I dont "think" 

I dont "study" I

 dont pray for these things

they just come 

and its pretty obvious 

where its coming from by now

 and it aint me.


God feels like you should know by now 

who your teachers and leaders are.

And if you dont?

And you dont listen?

Worse fate than being 

alive in the world of the dead 

is bout to come on ya.


So:

Not us.

Not now.

Not here.

Not you.

Not her.

God wouldn't do that to us.

It's not his will for yall etc.


Is exactly what Satan wants you to believe.

Prophets don't bring good news.


(And If you don't get Genesis 6 right?

You will never, 

can never

get a complete eschatology.

It will always be lacking.

Anybody talking end time events

(Eschatology)

and not having them correlate to Genesis 6:1-4?

To life that wasn't supposed to be here then?

(Think AI now)

and the consequences of that then

and what we are seeing

and are about to be seeing ourselves?

For the very same reason?

You'll never get it 

(Your Eschatology)

complete.



back to the end of that last commentary:

of the destroyer] The angel of death. Cf Exodus 12:23, Wis 18:25, where nearly the same Greek word is used in the Septuagint as here. Cf. also Genesis 19; 2 Samuel 24:16; 1 Chronicles 21:12; 1 Chronicles 21:15-16; 1 Chronicles 21:20; 2 Kings 19:35; 2 Chronicles 32:21; Acts 12:23...


We are gonna cover this

Korah's Rebellion

and then a conclusion lol

and then wrap this puppy up lol.


(I did a thing on this already

a few years ago in a presentation.)


Numbers 16:2-3

Korah's Rebellion

…2 a rebellion against Moses

along with 250 men of Israel 

renowned as leaders of the congregation 

and representatives in the assembly. 

3They came together against Moses and Aaron and told them, 

“You have taken too much upon yourselves! 

For everyone 

in the entire congregation is holy, 

(all of Christendom is just fine.)

and the LORD is in their midst. 

Why then do you exalt yourselves 

above the

 assembly of the LORD?” 

4When Moses heard this, 

he fell facedown.


Pretty relevant :-).

Seems like.

Don't do this to yourselves!

Well get to the commentaries in a second, 

first from the study bible:


They came together against Moses and Aaron

(Might as well be me and honey.

These days.)


This phrase indicates a rebellion led by Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, along with 250 leaders of the community. This opposition highlights a significant 

challenge to the God-ordained leadership 

of Moses and Aaron. 

The gathering against them 

suggests a coordinated effort

(I wonder what entity might have been behind that?)

reflecting a 

deep-seated discontent among certain factions 

within Israel. 


Historically, 

this rebellion occurs 

during the Israelites' wilderness journey

(Mirrors our wilderness we are in now.)


a time marked by frequent complaints 

and challenges to leadership 

(Exodus 16:2, Numbers 14:2).


and told them, 

You have taken too much upon yourselves!


The accusation implies 

that Moses and Aaron 

have overstepped their roles, 

suggesting an abuse 

of power or authority

This reflects a misunderstanding 

or rejection of the divine appointment 


(There is no "misunderstanding", 

they knew what they were doing, 

they didn't care, 

they didn't think anything could happen to them.

Mirrors the pretribulation rapture adherents 

(and others) attitudes.

Opps.)


of Moses and Aaron as leaders. 

The phrase echoes 

the human tendency 

to resist divinely established authority, 

a theme seen throughout Scripture 

(Romans 13:1-2


(It's God Ordained 

religious authorities 

as well Wayne lol.

I promise you it is.

cf Jude 82 Peter 2:10.)


And you are seeing it repeated again, 

right now, right in front of ya.

And its gonna cost people.



For everyone in the entire congregation is holy,

This claim references the idea

 that all Israelites are set apart 

as God's chosen people 

(Exodus 19:6). 

However, 

it overlooks the specific roles 

and responsibilities 

assigned by God, 

particularly the unique priestly duties 

given to Aaron and his descendants. 

The assertion 

of universal holiness 

is a distortion 

of the covenant relationship, 


(HE ASKED ME 

IF I WANTED 

TO DO THIS.

Now go read 

the line above again.)


ignoring 

the structure 

God established 

for worship 

and leadership.



and the LORD is in their midst.

This acknowledges God's presence among the Israelites, a truth evidenced by the tabernacle and the cloud of glory (Exodus 40:34-38). However, 


the rebels use this truth 

to justify their challenge, 

failing to recognize 

that God's presence 

does not negate the need 

for appointed leaders. 


The presence of the LORD 

is a central theme in Israel's journey, 

emphasizing both 

privilege and responsibility.


Why then do you exalt yourselves above 

the assembly of the LORD?”

The question challenges

 the perceived elevation of Moses and Aaron, 

accusing them of self-promotion. 

This 

reflects a misunderstanding 

of 

their roles as servants 

of God, 

chosen to lead and intercede 

for the people 

(Exodus 32:11-14). 

The accusation of self-exaltation is ironic, 

as it is the rebels 

who seek to elevate themselves. 

(Resonates... Big time.)

This mirrors the pride and rebellion 

seen in other biblical figures 

who resist God's order 

(Isaiah 14:12-15).

(Follow Satan much?)


Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(3) Ye take too much upon you . . . --Or, enough for you (comp. Gen. 14:28), i.e., you have held the priesthood and the government long enough; or, Let it be enough for you to be numbered amongst the holy people without usurping dominion over them. It is evident from the whole tenour of the address that Korah laid claim to a universal priesthood on behalf of the people, designing probably to secure the chief place in that priesthood for himself.


Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

 "What spirit levellers are of; 

those who resist the powers 

God has set over them...

It will help to keep us from envying those above us, 

duly to consider how many there are below us."


Pulpit Commentary

They erred, as most violent men do, 

not because they asserted what was false, 

but because they took for granted 

that the truth which they asserted 

was really inconsistent 

with the claims which they assailed


(Sounds like some cosmologist.)


"...it was also true that 

by Divine command Israel 

(Body of true believers these days

"in whom there is no guile"

(John 1:47)


could only exercise his corporate priesthood outwardly 

through the one family 

which God had set apart 

for that purpose.


(And now?

There is another family

set aside

for another purpose:

Announcing the start of the End Times

The founding of Christ Last Church

His beautiful Bride.

etc.

The male aspect of divinity 

demonstrated

 in the two witnesses 

mirrors the Moses story.

They are bookends.

Moses went from a prince to pauper.

The male aspect of the two witnesses

goes from pauper to prince.

cf Mark 10:29-30

See how easy this all really is?)


Keil and Delitzsch 

Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament

"...or altogether 

overlooking the fact 

that God Himself had chosen 

Moses and Aaron,

 and appointed them as mediators between Himself and the congregation, 

to educate the sinful nation 

into a holy nation, 

and train it to the fulfilment 

of its proper vocation. 

The rebels, on the contrary, thought that they were holy already, because God had called them to be a holy nation, and in their carnal self-righteousness forgot the condition attached to their calling, "If ye will obey My voice indeed, and keep My covenant" (Exodus 19:5).


If you don't trust his will?

And you don't trust in his messengers?

Then you are not keeping up with 

your part of the bargain.


Tomorrow?

I don't think Im gonna look at 

the lectionary and try and pick out 

which verse Pastor Bridgette 

is gonna preach on lol.

(Written obviously on Saturday 3/29.)


That was a lil bit more than a mouthful.

:-).


CONCLUSION:

"...but what you want to do is 

be consistent with God's will."

~

Missler, Genesis session 8

between 33:23-34:50 mark.


My comments on that:


"Remember that, there is an important post brewing so to speak, coming up here in the near future that will focus very specifically on just that:


believers going against Gods will:

Korah, Dathan and Abiram

and 250 other

"princes of the assembly",

then the murmurings

 of the entire congregation 

the next day.


when it was done, 

In the wilderness

after the Israelites had left Egypt.


what happened to those who did it, 

Korah, Dathan and Abiram

their tents and all their possessions 

were swallowed up in the ground.


The 250 rebels were consumed by "fire from the lord".

And the next day 

The entire congregation  complained about it

AND A PLAGUE

destroyed 14,700 of them

even after the intersession of 

Moses and Aaron on the peoples behalf.


and why it is so very important 

for us to remember it, 

right now this very instant 

in our current circumstances."


1st Corinthians 10:11

Now all these things 

happened 

unto them 

(Not just the leaders)

for examples: 

and they are written 

for our admonition,

 upon whom 

the ends of the ages 

are come.


US.


I Literally just got done with:

The Fall of Babylon (Revelation 18)

Wednesday, March 12, 2025


A Call to Separation from Babylon 

(Revelation 18:4-5)

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.


(Reference the Woman 

symbolizing ALL wickedness 

in Zachariah 5.)


'Come out of her, 

my people, 

that ye be not partakers of her sins, 

and that 

ye receive not of her plagues."


Here is where I see some of the mixing of:

Religious, Political and Economic

Babylon.


Christ True Church?

"Receives not 

her plagues.'


If the Apostate church stays married 

to the world 

(and I should have said:

"and it's")

political leaders?


It will suffer the consequences.


"As John contemplates the announcement 

of the fall of Babylon, he hears 

another voice from heaven 

addressed to the people of God 

instructing them to come out of Babylon. 


(GET OUT OF IT!

GOD ALMIGHTY TOLD YOU TO DO SO!


"In a similar way the people of God were urged to leave Babylon in ancient days (Jer. 51:45). Seiss explains the phrase “come out of her,” citing Jeremiah 50:4-9 where the children of Israel are urged to “remove out of the midst of Babylon” (Jer. 50:8), and the command “Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul” (Jer. 51:6).288 Alford compares the command to come out of Babylon to the warning to Lot to leave Sodom (Gen. 19:15-22).289 The purpose of leaving Babylon is twofold: 

first, by separation from her they will not partake of her sin, 

and second, they will not have her plagues inflicted on them. 


The reference to plagues refers to the vials of chapter 16, 

especially the seventh vial 

which falls upon Babylon itself 

(Revelation 16:17-21).

And Gods people?

Wanna hear more about 

Books about Bunnys

The lost bunny.

And 

"Breakfast with the Bunny"

than they wanna hear 

about prophecy fulfillment?

THEN

DESTRUCTION 

SHOULD BE THOUGHT OF

AS IMMANENT.


"For her sins have reached unto heaven, 

and God hath remembered her iniquities."


How do you really think 

God feels about having 

the Easter Bunny in his house?


HE ALREADY TOLD YOU:


(Revelation 18:4-5)

And I heard another voice from heaven, 

saying, 

Come out of her, my people, 

that ye be not partakers of her sins, 

and that ye receive not of her plagues. 

For her sins have reached unto heaven, 

and God hath remembered her iniquities.


Strayed so far 

as to not even know 

what's wrong anymore.


Sometimes?

Things are so far gone?

That they are beyond repair.

So they get blown up

and started over:


Matthew 24:22

And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.


That's about to be us,

right now.

And yes me and honey attended a "Trunk or Treat" event this past October. Needless to say, we wont be participating in any more, ever

Nehemiah building back up the walls between the  Church and the World and such.


And who will bring on 

the destruction, 

to those who wont heed instruction?

And understand God's will,

will be done on earth?


"The angel of Death"

The Destroyer.


Exodus 12:13 and 23


13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

23 For the Lord will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the Lord will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.


1 Chronicles 21:12, 15,16


12 Either three years' famine; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of the Lord, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.


1 Chronicles 21:15

15 And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the Lord beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite


1 Chronicles 21:16

16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.


2 Chronicles 32:21

And the Lord sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.


2 Kings 19:35

35 And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the Lord went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.


2 Samuel 24:15

So the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men.


Wisdom 18:25

New American Bible (Revised Edition)

25 To these the destroyer yielded, these he feared;

    for this sole trial of anger sufficed.


Hebrews 11:28

28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.


1 Corinthians 10:10

10 Neither murmur ye, 

as some of them 

also murmured

and were 

destroyed 

of the destroyer.


Acts 12:23

23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.


Revelation 9:11

11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.


That's 13 verses 

(Interesting number BTW)

about the angel of death

that people today

don't even wanna admit exist.

Lots of times 

spreading pestilence

(a fatal epidemic disease, 

especially bubonic plague.)


What happens to us again? 

If we don't separate 

the church from the world?

Or don't understand God's will 

for eradicating evil from the earth?

Or don't listen 

to his divinely appointed leaders?


Revelation 18:4-5

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, 

and that ye receive not of her plagues.


I wonder just who it will be

that will be delivering them?

As it seems like t

here is plenty of precedent 

already established.


NO WONDER 

WE DONT WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT,

IT APPLIES TO US.


1 Corinthians 10:10-11

10 Neither murmur ye

as some of them also murmured

and were destroyed of the destroyer.

11 Now all these things 

happened unto THEM 

for examples: 

and they are written 

for our admonition, 

upon whom 

the ends of the ages are come.


Paul didn't have B52s  

sitting in Qatar

and B2's 

sitting in Diego Garcia 

when he wrote that.


We do.
