Genesis Message 55 Rebecca Has Twins – Esau Sells His Birthright Daniel Woodhead Daniel Woodhead
Isaac’s wife Rebecca was barren for about twenty years. Rebecca finally became pregnant with twin boys. During a difficult pregnancy the two boys were unusually active within her womb. The activity was not natural and she suspected an evil omen.The expressive language of Hebrew captures this activity with an unusual verb vy-yitrotsetsu and translated it means “they crushed and thrust” one another. This foretold their future hostile relationship. Rebecca inquired of the Lord regarding this and He responded; “two nations that is, twin progenitors of two nations, were struggling in her womb.” The Hebrew word for nation is goieem, which is indicating both Jewish and Gentile nations. Common modern Jewish usage of the word Goy is to reference the Gentiles. That is not the biblical Hebrew meaning. They became two entirely different people groups. One people would be stronger and the other weaker. He concluded by stating “the elder shall serve the younger” (Genesis 25: 23).
“Perhaps Today – The Imminent Coming of Christ”
by Thomas Ice by RR@admin2 The New Testament teaching that Christ could return and rapture His church at any-moment, without prior signs or warning (i.e., imminency), is such a powerful argument for pretribulationism that it is one of the most fiercely attacked doctrines by pre-trib opponents. Non-pretribulationists sense that if the New Testament teaches imminency, then a pre-trib rapture is virtually assured. DEFINITION OF IMMINENCY What is the biblical definition of imminency? Dr. Renald Showers defines and describes imminence as follows: 1) An imminent event is one which is always “hanging overhead, is constantly ready to befall or overtake one; …
The Eight Stage Campaign of Armageddon 19: 19
Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the Rider on the horse and His army (19:19). According to the Bible, great armiesfrom the west and the east will gather and assemble on this plain in the Valley of Armageddon(Psalm 2:2; Joel 3:9-11). As the antichrist and his armies approach Jerusalem, God will intervene and Jesus Christ will return to rescue His people Israel. In a sense, Armageddon is a battle that never really takes place. That is, it does not take place in accordance with its original …
Rapture-resistance Reasoning
Terry James While those who truly grasp the lateness of the hour and what the issues and events of these strange, troubled times mean, there is the overwhelming majority that hasn’t a clue. This is neither surprising nor unexpected, because the vast part of the world’s population is in spiritual darkness–without Christ, therefore without the Holy Spirit to guide thinking and comportment. There are millions upon millions of others who are within Christendom–that is, who claim to be under the umbrella of Christianity. Most of these, statistics bear out, would not qualify as “Christian” under the definition of being “born …
God’s Chastisement of His Children
Reflections From The Psalms The Lord tries the righteous: but the wicked and him that loves violence his soul hates. (Ps. 11:5) The contrast in this verse is striking. On the one hand we are told what the Lord hates. But this is contrasted over and against those who are righteous in Christ – those whom God loves. And clearly, one way in which God expresses His love is by, “trying the righteous.” When the Bible speaks of, “trying, trials, or testing,” it is NOT talking about God putting people into situation in order to see whether they have faith. …
The Last Generation
Pete Garcia You know what the funny thing about Bible Prophecy is? It’s that irrespective of our doctrinal positions and eschatological ‘leanings’, the reality is that it’s coming to pass regardless of what we think or believe. Nations are aligning just as they were foretold, regardless of what Rick Warren or Hank “the Bible Answer Man” Hanegraaff teaches. Collectively, we have become a people bent only on wickedness, with our hearts filled with violence…just like the Bible said we would, in the Last Days. But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be …
