Christianity EtcRe: You Are A Bridegroom Of Blood To Me by Acehart(op):
MuttleyLaff:
Acehart, please re-attempt answering question #2 but, do so, in the #2a and #2b format used to ask the questions and mind you, I used "jealous" and not "hatred" in question #2a, I will thereafter properly respond to your posts and shed more light. By the way, I like your latter answer to #1 and equally like your #3 "Moshe was a type of Christ ..." earlier bit answer.
Muttleylaff, I hope I answer your questions correctly undecided:

1/ Who, giving the name, did Zipporah say Exodus 4:25 to?

1. Then Zipporah took a flint and cut off her son's foreskin and threw it at Moses' feet, and she said, "You are indeed a bridegroom of blood to me." So He let him alone. At that time she said, "You are a bridegroom of blood"-because of the circumcision.

The pronoun “You” (in my NASB) appears twice and the pronoun “He” and “Him” appears once. The proliferation of pronouns makes any answer subjective because there are no definitives in this verse. One maybe be tempted to say, she was referring to Moshe; but I’ll carefully say she was speaking to Moshe’s God - (At that time she said to “He” who let “him“ alone). Moshe’s God, in this narrative, is the only one doing the “holding” or “holding against”.

2a/ Why were Miriam and Aaron jealous of Zipporah?

2a. It seems to me that Miriam was jealous of Moses and his wife; while Aaron was jealous of Moses.

Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept. (Solomon 1:6)

Zipporah was an Ethiopian (Cushite) or called an Ethiopian because of her black skin. To know why Miriam was jealous lies in her words: "Has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us as well?"

Inferring from Solomon 1:6, Zipporah had become one of the keepers of the vineyard which Miriam and Aaron also kept; Zipporah may have become influential in the direction Israel took through their sojourn in the wilderness (Her father was influential in Moses’ decision-making, and her brother also was influential in how Israel moved through the wilderness - Number 10:29), playing a prophetic role as well; which irked Miriam. This Cushite may have been more conspicuous in the camp, by deed and by complexion; so that, attention towards Miriam waned, and led to the sentiment: "Has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us as well?" She was no longer treated like the first rank among the women of Israel (Exo.15:20-21) she once was; Zipporah was ‘making a foray’ into her position.

Aaron too may have felt this way but he is a man whom the record shows he doesn’t initiate anything until he is instigated.

But the jealousy towards Zipporah seems like a smoke-screen to the real issue - they were jealous of Moses - they thought Moses was running a one-man show.

2b/ What in regards to Zipporah, circa 2000 years in the spirit realm, unconsciously and indirectly, were Miriam and Aaron objecting to?

2b. I am not familiar with the chronological progression of Israel; what 2000 years from Moses’ time is, I don’t know. However, if the time between Moses’ existence and Jesus’ earthly sojourn is about 2000 years, then the spiritual interpretation of the action of the siblings is this:

The Gospel of Matthew is ordered like the Pentateuch - in five sections. The corresponding part of the Gospel of Matthew in relation to this event in the Pentateuch is: The Discourse on the Church. The discourse emphasizes the importance of humility and self-sacrifice as the high virtues within the anticipated community. It teaches that in the Kingdom of God, it is childlike humility that matters, not social prominence and clout - Moses understood this (Num. 12:3) but not Miriam nor her elder brother.

The general theme of the discourse is the anticipation of a future community of followers, and the role of his apostles in leading it. Miriam’s and Aaron’s dissenting opinion could have affected the future generation of Israel who were to enter into the promised land. They were unconsciously objecting to the future church and the true meaning of the “Kingdom of God”.

3/ What is Moshe simulating when he married Zipporah?
The simulation is this: Moses was a type of Christ; his marriage to Zipporah typified Jesus’ Union with the Apostles in the building of the Church of God.

Christianity EtcRe: It Will End In TEARS AND MOURNING-A Prophecy About Nigeria In The Month Of June by Acehart: 6:27pm On Jul 20, 2020
Nigeriaexploit:
There will be shedding of tears and mourning everywhere in our dear country in the month of June this year (specifically on the 20th of June)

The cause of this mourning will generate so much tension, instability, accusations and counter-accusation within the......................................

International pressure at the end will lead to the swearing-in of him whom God has anointed. He is neither from the East, nor from the North, nor from the South.

He will bring stability, calmness and peace to a people who have long been dejected and hopeless.

This event will shake the foundation of Nigeria in such a way that people from different geopolitical zones will call for secession and balkanization of the country. But Nigeria will remain strong and unshakable at the end.

Note: This event is not related to the outbreak.

Please save the date and pray earnestly for peace.

mantles ...Chris and Morris Cerrullo soliciting people for money to purchase a prophet's mantle
The scriptures says, God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world.

Well these men may be prophets to some men, but the scriptures says that true believers in the last days have only one prophet, the last prophet - Christ, who gives all things freely. So, let those who believe in them go ahead and buy their mantles.
Christianity EtcYou Are A Bridegroom Of Blood To Me by Acehart(op):
Now it came about at the lodging place on the way that the Lord met him and sought to put him to death. Then Zipporah took a flint and cut off her son's foreskin and threw it at Moses' feet, and she said, "You are indeed a bridegroom of blood to me." So He let him alone. At that time she said, "You are a bridegroom of blood"-because of the circumcision. (Exodus 4:24-26)

It’s a very difficult part of the scriptures to interpret - verse 26. However, to understand it, we need to focus of Moses and God, not Zipporah’s reaction. The right questions to ask are:

1. Why did God want to kill Moses?
2. What made Moses so incapacitated that his wife took on the responsibility of circumcising her son, a man’s responsibility?

The answer to number 1 lies in number 2: God caused Moses to be very sick to the point of death because he didn’t carry out his responsibility - to circumcise his son. Someone said: This was probably the effect of his being unequally yoked with a Midianite, who was too indulgent of her child, while Moses was too indulgent of her.

So one lesson we can take out of this is: don’t be EQUALLY yoked with an unbeliever in anything including marriage, because our fondness for an unbelieving person will supersede our Love for God.

Another lesson is this: know that God is not pleased when a man tries to undervalue His covenant, and derelict in their responsibilities, just a Moses did. We must learn that: when God discovers to us what is amiss in our lives we must give all diligence to amend it speedily, and particularly return to the duties we have neglected.

No I wasn’t talking about you but the people you quoted . They are ready to change scriptures to suit the greed.They went as far as insulting Abraham tithe saying Abraham did not give tithe to God that it was just a tax to government And no spirituality about it . They forgot Jacob tithe to God .



It’s amazing when we ask funny questions like this . 30years have passed between his vow and when God reminded him . The fact that God reminded him of his tithe should have been enough . Either he built a new one or a used one should not be a case . What is altar na . Is it a building ? It’s just arrangement of stones .



Yes that’s true . God was not against vows . He is against foolish vows



Paul had a vow. Vows are demonstrations of faith. God honors vows
Hi, where did God remind Jacob of his tithe? What was Paul’s vow? Is it the temporary Nazarite vow, where he shaved his hair, for peace sake, you are referring to? Incredible! Why do you teach tithes but avoid the Nazarite doctrine; which is greater? It’s also strange you avoided the scriptures that expressly discourages vows.

I am not writing to convince you, but a man who will follow God should know the whole counsel of God concerning every matter - this you have jettisoned.

If you are eager to give, God will accept your gift on the basis of what you have to give, not on what you don't have 2 Cor. 8:12

They have zeal for God, which cannot be denied; but their zeal has no depth of understanding.

Seriously? I wonder why someone would write a book on the “Anointing oil”; unless it is meant to give alchemists the formula for making the oil or to instruct the High Priest on how to formulate it and handle it; but will a man instruct our High Priest?

It’s strange seeing people praying in a “genie” model; but it is more baffling for one to say the infinite life of God can be contained; is God a genie?

We live in strange times.

Wrong



Yes Tithe eaters usually Don’t accept scriptures

Eventually, Jacob didn’t give any tithe.

He did God was even the one who reminded Jacob about the tithe and Jacob built Another altar

Genesis 31:13
I am the God of Bethel, where thou anointedst the pillar, and where thou vowedst a vow unto me: now arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto the land of thy kindred.

Genesis 35:1
And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there: and make there an altar unto God, that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.

Genesis 35:6-7
6 So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him. 7 And he built there an altar, and called the place Elbethel: because there God appeared unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother.



The scriptures shows that the God discourages vows (like Jacob did). As Jacob matured, he stopped making this kind of prayer-promises.

Wrong! God actually loves vows. He wants us to vow and pay. What he frowns at is non compliance

Psalms 76:11
11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God:
let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
I’m not built for arguments. You slight me by calling me a ‘tithe eater’.

You should provide a verse that shows Jacob paid the tithe to God. You should ask this too: “why did he build another altar? What happened to the first one? At the first instance, did God tell him to build the first altar and make a vow?”

When one vows, yes! He must pay to the Lord. Here is the hallmark of discouragement in the scriptures: When you make a vow to God, do not be late in paying it; for He takes no delight in fools. Pay what you vow! It is better that you should not vow than that you should vow and not pay.

From Jacob’s experience to Jephtha’s to Solomon’s, we are discouraged from making vows because of our human nature.

The attitude in maturity we find in Grace is: “So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy”. God, in discouraging vows says one place: For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.; in another place He says: Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.

We are not to follow the ways of Jacob but the way of Christ; and to humbly accept that the fragility of flesh and our inability to control the future are sufficient reasons to not make vows.

I think he studied the Bible more than you. You should rather listen to truth
Years later, this altar designed and built by Jacob was destroyed and he ended up not paying the tithe.

Many people consider the prayer Jacob offered at this altar as deceptive and manipulative towards God, hence the destruction of it. Eventually, Jacob didn’t give any tithe.

Yeah, this mindset is very wrong and leaves a bad taste in the mouth

"12So they set out and preached that the people should repent.
13They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.
"
- Mark 6:12-13

Anointing, biblically is done to symbolise being set apart for God's work and be made ready for God's work, God's use or transfer of God's power. The 12 disciples in Mark 6:13 above, drove out many demons, healed many people and anointed them with olive oil. They however didnt make a merchandise of anointing with olive oil

Apostle James was one of them twelve that first hand used olive oil to anoint the sick, so it is understandable, he is recommending in James 5:14a to pray to the sick and to augment with some element of olive oil anointing
Though olive oil has its medicinal application, the disciples applied it immediately after the demons were cast out and after healing the sick; it is sufficient to say that the external application of the olive oil was a sign attesting to the power of Christ to save: in that when the glow of the oil is seen on those healed, one will have to ask for the reason for having oil smeared on their faces, and hence a testimony of Christ’s power will ensue.

Jesus’ brothers said: “For no one does anything in secret when he himself seeks to be known publicly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world." - it seems this is the principle behind the use of the anointing oil after healing.

The article is self explanatory.

The problem we have now is that the wolves has infiltrated the flock. They device every means to paint their actions in good light and even the true believers are lured away. Today you see people believe more on the annointing oil, annointed handkerchief, bracelets, etc than the name Jesus.

May God help us to put our trust in Him alone in Jesus name amen.
It is very worrisome: the trends we see in the Church, where we see the mixture of pagan philosophy with Christianity. In third world countries, it’s like one of the tools used by Satan to attack the gospel is the destruction of the educational system; as this scheme by Satan achieve its goal, there is a proliferation of false teachers and preachers.

Our only comfort is that Christ would meet His church without wrinkles and blemish. If not, we would think that the Church is in Satan’s hands forever. The decay is worrisome.
Christianity EtcThe Anointing Oil by Acehart(op):
The Anointing Oil and its use.

All references from the King James Version



The anointing oil or oil of anointing, was used during the ordination of the priesthood and the High Priest (Exod. 29:7,21; Num 35:25); it was used to sanctify (to make holy) the anointed person. It was also used for the sanctification of the tabernacle items: the tent of meeting, the ark of testimony and tables; altar of incense, altar of burnt offering and its utensils and the laver and its stand (Exod. 40:9, Lev.8:2). It was also used to anoint the first-fruit burnt offering in the Feast of Shavout (Lev. 23). Centuries later, it was used for the coronation of kings upon which the Spirit of God “came upon” the anointed person for the sole purpose of making such a one fit for the task of being king; and profitable in his time as the King of Israel.

The anointing oil was a mixture of the following composition:

• 500 Shekels (equivalently 5.7kg) of flowing myrrh.
• 250 Shekels (equivalently 2.85kg) of fragrant cinnamon.
• 150 Shekels (equivalently 1.71kg) of fragrant cane.
• 500 Shekels (equivalently 5.7kg) of cassia.
• 1 hin (equivalently 6 litres) of olive oil.

This weighty mixture was then poured on the head of the anointed person (Lev. 8:12, Exod. 29:7, 1 Sam. 10:1, 1 Sam. 10:1, 1 Sam. 16:13, Psa. 23:5, Psa. 133:2).

It was originally designed exclusively for the Levitical Priesthood; to which several legislations were attached: those legislations were:

• It shall not be replicated
• No one outside the Priesthood of Aaron shall be anointed with the oil.

Subsequently, the anointing oil was replicated for the ordination of the Kings of Israel; Does a contradiction lie here? Did Israel flout God’s legislation? Such notion is unfounded; though God warns that the mixture should not be replicated, Deuteronomy 28:39-40 and Psalms 92:10 suggests that the nature of legislation was temporary.

There was no mention of the anointing oil in the scriptures after Solomon’s temple was rebuilt; however, in the discourse of the tabernacle of the greatest degree, where Christ is the High Priest, the anointing oil was mentioned.

The responsibility of the safe-keeping of the anointing oil was committed to the High Priest (Num.4:16), who was the highest among his brethren (Lev.21:10).

In the gospels, there is no mention of an ordination ceremony where the anointing oil was poured on the heads of the Apostles, the “Priests” of Christ. However, there is the mention of the anointing oil in James 5:14:

Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:


But James 5:14 ends with the colon punctuation mark. The colon or colon punctuation mark is used to separate two independent clauses; where the second explains or illustrates the first.

According to the definition of this mark, James 5:15a explains the clause: “Let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord”. James 5:15a says: “And the prayer of faith shall save the sick”.

Therefore, the anointing oil in this text is the prayer of faith, the prayer of the elders - this is corroborated by the comma preceding the clause. Apostle James wasn’t referring to a literal oil.

The present practice of the use of an “anointing” oil in churches around the world is an aberration and unscriptural; it is idolatrous. Many may have ascribed to its efficacy but it it is not an efficacy from the Lord God; that Moses struck the rock (a second time) and water gushed out of it miraculously, didn’t mean that God authorized it.

May the Lord bless you and keep you.

I understand, but please bear with what I am about to say, for I say it with no intention to cause offence but to advance Correction.

I understand that the Nigerian Education is "A Spoon Feeding type of Education, which is what I believe makes the Average Nigerian Susceptible and Vulnerable to Deception RATHER THAN Personal Inquest and Research and Discovery! Which is what I am asking Everyone to do, so that no one is Misled or Deceived.

Thus, i bring all I told Mutley in Private lest it looks like I do not equally care for your good welfare also! As amended because Mutley said I did not talk about Rapture, which in mind is what this thread is about and the reason of which I made all my comments.

So, here I go!

I Hail you Too, oh my that was a 2derfull engagement last night!

This is what I had wanted to put up but I do not want to raise a Controversy, over an unfinished work!

Ah! I am saying (Rapture is)
1) It is Not going to Play out the way men have Calculated that it shall play out.

2) And we are using what Christ said "I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?

And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.

And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.

Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time ? (Luke 13: 49 and 54-56)

That Statement is The Guide, And the events going on in the the world, is Giving us Feedback as a Gauge, leading us to come to this Conclusion.

And one of the Feedbacks we have seen, is that those who Genuinely Do The Righteousness of God, their Righteousness Have Increased and they are Separated from Their Families and People, and Hated by them and all, for their Righteousness, which is the very Righteousness of God. (As is Written in) Joel 2:28

"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh;"

On the other hand, those who are not of God, their Wickedness and Evil is greatly increased, just as it is Written (in). Revelation 6:1-4

" And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. (This was the Revival Period we experienced when the Worship of God was at its Hottest and churches Rose up as grasses eg RCCG, KICC, LATTER RAIN, CHRIST EMBASSY etc) (My own personal opinion, Knowing that before the 90s and 2000s, church activities was very dull when compared to this period. And once more, today, there is even an aparthy to the church because of the Deceits and Wrongs Perpetrated by the Church.)=My Own Opinion, I Say, make una no chop me, abeg oh! cheesy

3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. (Does the news not confirm these Notable Killings and Grievous Woundings and Wickedness as Stated in Mathew 24: 12 "And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold?"wink See the Terrible News and Newses, we see even on Nairaland's front page, I wish for death and good news is Scarce!

And these two groups hate each other, and can quickly identify each other, hence a Separation, which we now think that this is the Rapture.

The Separation of the sheep from the goat! (The Righteous and good from Wickedness and Evil!)

What do you think?

In addition, Christ Expressly

John 14:30
"Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me."

Which we Also see is happening, even today!

No True Prophecies Given, No Instructions, Nothing New from God. Only a Heavy Silence!

These are the things I see, others outside Nairaland too confirm it, and Truespeak also affirms it!

So let me brace for Impact!

alBHAGDADI:
When you people want to reject what the Bible expressly days or you want to twist it to mean the lie, you go back to the Greek or Hebrew language. You use it to confuse people who don't understand those languages which aren't even your mother tongue.

You are trying to fault the Bible description of the House of God by saying it is a filter and not a building structure.

Look, that verse in Timothy speaks of pillar and ground of truth. It clearly shows that it is talking about a building structure, not some family as you put.

Where did Paul get the idea from? He got it from Jacob who dreamt and saw angels of God descending and ascending on the spot he slept on. This made him fear when he woke up.

Genesis 28:17-19
17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.
19 And he called the name of that place Bethe: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first.

Notice how Jacob called the place the house of God. He also set up a pillar on that ground which is where Paul got the phrase pillar and ground of truth. He went on to called the place Bethel which means House of God. That spot is where King Solomon built the first temple in Israel which was a building structure.

So, don't go back to the Greek or Hebrew in an attempt to try to rubbish the clear word of God because many don't understand those languages. God has given us his word in English and many other languages. Except you want to say God is not perfect enough to give us his word in other languages in a perfect way.
Peace be with you.

alBHAGDADI:
1.) Meeting in a church building is also unscriptural.

This is totally wrong and shows that Reno Omokri who claims to be a pastor hasn't read much of the Bible or perhaps didn't understand what he read.

1 Timothy 3:15 King James Version
15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

The verse above shows that there is a place called the House of God. The Bible makes it clear in the same verse that that house is the Church of the Living God.
“House“ (οἶκος oikos) is translated as household or family. In verse 5, Paul defined the meaning of Church (ἐκκλησία ekklēsia) of God using the picture of a Bishop and His responsibility to this family.

Your translation of ‘family’ to mean a ‘Building structure’ is erroneous.

In other words you believe man was created 6,000 years ago?
The doesn’t sound like an engineer’s question. Are you an artisan (the type people call engineer because of a hand tool) or a real engineer?

You mean the paragraph after? It doesn't answer my question.

I am an engineer, what does that have to do with anything?
I assume you have at least an MSc in engineering to understand the paragraph I spoke a bit on time periods in Euler Bernoulli(ish) energy equations programming. If you have a PhD, then it is piece of cake for you. You can let us speak about programming of any energy equation you are very conversant with and speak of the modeling of that equation you have ever engaged in.

There are seven time periods in Genesis chapter 1. Man was created in the sixth time period. I said in March this year, scientists has discovered that before the cycles of events leading to creation i.e. before the series of equations leading to creation were introduced, an equation already existed. To solve the previous equation, an analytical method of solution is employed - this is the case in Genesis 1:1-3 scenario. Later on, in creation, a numerical method of solution was employed in the succeeding verses, where we see six complete loops and a seventh incomplete loop.

If you are familiar with what I have said so far, you would know that the primary complex equation is greater than its divisions by a country mile. 3 billions years will fall into the purview of the analytical method of solution and man’s 6000 years will surely fall in the numerical method of solution.

Ok so men were created 3billion years ago?
Please read the chapter following the chapter you quoted. I’d also like to know your field of study.

So the biblical flood was 3billion years ago? You have evidence that men existed on earth 3billion years ago?
Sorry dude. I was referring to Genesis 1:1-2, not the Noah’s flood.
