Genesis 50:20 NKJV
But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.

I was talking to a man at church this last Sunday and he lamented that he could not understand Satan rejecting God after being with Him for millenniums. I responded that I don't think Satan was very old when he rebelled. I told him I didn't think Satan knew God very well. I think Satan was brand new. Similarly I think Adam and Eve sinned VERY soon after being made. All men were born into sin, even Cain. Since Adam and Eve were naked and there was no football on TV. They likely were doing a ton of banging. After all, God told them the bang away and multiply. Since Cain was born into sin they fell quickly. Bob Enyart first introduced me to this concept back in the 90's.

All part of the plan.

Some things I wonder about (more questions for heaven). Who was satan really tempting/testing? Was satan testing God to see if He would instantly smite the new sinners? Was satan trying to prove a point that people with free will would choose his lifestyle over God's? After all, satan craved followers. Evidently there must be *some* free will besides mankind, because a third of the angels followed him. And somehow or another they think they can win.

 

[E.J.D]

It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.
Psalm 118:8 - KJV

Acts 4:31
31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.

John 11:40 NKJV
Jesus said to her, "Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?"

Nachash: Seed of the Serpent (Documentary)

Nachash Seed of the Serpent is a Genesis Documentary by Trey Smith. An extended version and other films at: https://godinanutshell.com/

Please know we also VERY VERY much accept donations, these films are a bit of work guys. ~trey https://godinanutshell.com/product/donate-god-nutshell/

The word Nachash is the actual Hebrew word for serpent used in the Book of Genesis. Nachash actually has three uses in one.

Nachash:
As a noun, it means serpent.
As a verb, it means to divine; the nachash
​means the diviner.As an adjective, it means shining; the nachash means the shining one.

Biblical Hebrew there is a strong connection between the ‘Nachash’ and dark supernatural forces. The Biblical Hebrew word for ‘sorcery’ or ‘witchcraft’ is serpent, meaning "Nachash".

So, this is a documentary on Genesis about that angelic, serpentine, shining one. We will also be looking at the Enuma Elish which also seems to tell us about this otherworldly Nachash serpent, called the Tiamat in Akkadian.

Genesis 3:
Now the serpent (Nachash) was more crafty (Arum) than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made.

Nachash said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” 2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’” 4 But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

Nachash: Seed of the Serpent has a run time of roughly 1 hour 35 minutes. This documentary is part II of the Genesis series by the God in Nutshell project.

Over at God in a Nutshell there is an EXTREMELY extended version of this film. Additionally, the part I of the Genesis series, "Garments from the Garden of God," also is available for immediate streaming.

Nachash: Seed of the Serpent is a film by Trey Smith.

“And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns; and He had a name written, that no man knew, but He Himself. And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word of God….. And He hath on His vesture, and on His thigh, a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords”.

You guys know I follow a lot of news. The uptick in earthquakes, volcano eruptions, meteors, etc has been crazy these last few months. I've never been a "the end is nigh" kind of person, but it has been making me think twice.

Do you have the statistics? I saw some stuff yesterday on the uptick but I was unable to determine if it was true.

If we are near the end is there anything you are doing different? I was thinking this weekend how I need to be more sensitive to other peoples needs around me.

No stats. Purely personal observation that there seems to be a lot going on.

As far as prepping, I'm about as prepped as reasonably possible without going overboard. I don't subject the family to "doom and gloom" so if the time truly comes, there will have to be a sit down discussion. I don't want to sound like the grasshopper in the grasshopper and ant story, but faith will be my biggest shield. After all, I could be laying up a hoard for others to simply plunder, and then what would it have benefitted? "Give us *this* day our daily bread."

I'm a big fan of the New King James Version (NKJV for short). It drops all the "king's english", so it is very straightforward. The super easy reading ones, american standard, etc tend to booger up some passages so much that it takes on a whole different meaning. Sometimes, they will also flat out add things that were never in the original text.

King James Version. Isn’t that the one that Denzel Washington was carrying to the West Coast in the movie “The book of Eli”?

Sorry just watched that for the first time last week.

If memory serves me, yes. That was a pretty good flick. Not super believable as a premise, but the movie was entertaining.

New King James is also my go to translation but I read various ones all the time. (I'm not a "KJV only guy") Obviously the original Greek is the best.

NKJV is based on the Majority text so it has majority support among the original.

My above question a few posts back was more spiritual. Its sobering to think we will stand before God soon so I'm adjusting my poor attitudes.

I kind of figured it was more spiritual. Hence why I said I'm leaning on my faith, more than anything. God and I both know I'm a sinner. There's things I struggle with on a regular basis, but I like to think I'm striving for improvement. I feel about as secure as man can feel about his salvation. My biggest concern is for the generation(s) born in the end times.

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.” Philippians 4:8

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Proverbs 22:6
6 Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.

Predetermined life spans..... Thoughts, opinions etc. Do you think God gives us a set amount of time on this planet?

I think that falls back to the "does God know the future" discussion. IMHO, He's simply already saw your story and mine.

There's some debate about the 120 year life span mentioned in Genesis. Given what we know about ages at death today, it seems to be holding pretty accurate.

Good vid that ties together all the elements of the Nephilim. Its rare to find someone that has presented it so thoroughly. He also believes as I do that these are the present day aliens.

This is probably one of the best presentations I've seen on this topic. And almost everything I've studied agrees with it. If you have an ounce of interest in this topic, it's worth taking the 30 mins to watch this video.

So now that we're discussing aliens, let's talk dinosaurs. I've often seriously wondered about the "strange flesh" verse. Yes, it could mean human, homosexual, etc. But part of me wonders if it wasn't bestiality. Was Sodom and Gomorrah bad? Yeah. Were they the only ones practicing homosexuality? Probably not. I can't help but feel like there was something much more significant going on there. Noah's flood had destroyed "everything bad" (likely the dinosaurs) and now Sodom and Gomorrah needed to be destroyed. Why? Were they firing up some Nephilim genetic experiments again? Breeding with beasts to produce a new generation of dinosaurs, etc?

JUST IN - European Union to unveil plans for a bloc-wide "digital wallet" for citizens to access a range of "private and public services" with a single online ID on Wednesday (FT)

“The new digital ID will give all Europeans the keys to their digital twin,” says Thierry Breton, EU commissioner.

How long until you can't log in to social networks without your EU digital ID? Smells like a backdoor approach to end anonymity on the Internet.

Putting this here instead of the ufo thread. Because they are already starting the narrative.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/science...w-truth-UFOs-weapons-spend-new-religions.html

Obama says he 'absolutely' wants to know the truth behind UFOS and believes the US could spend more on weapons and deal with new religions if aliens do exist

'New religions would pop up. And who knows what kind of arguments we get into. We’re good at manufacturing arguments for each other.'

Revelation 3:5
5 The one who is victorious will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life, but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels.

Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

Middle East Update: How close are we to Gog and Magog?

 

[heavyiron]

Isaiah Called to Be a Prophet
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one cried to another and said:

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!”

And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.

So I said:

“Woe is me, for I am undone!
Because I am a man of unclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the King,
The Lord of hosts.”

Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. And he touched my mouth with it, and said:

“Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin purged.”

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying:

“Whom shall I send,
And who will go for Us?”

Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”

And He said, “Go, and tell this people:

‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand;
Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’

“Make the heart of this people dull,
And their ears heavy,
And shut their eyes;
Lest they see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart,
And return and be healed.”

Then I said, “Lord, how long?”

And He answered:

“Until the cities are laid waste and without inhabitant,
The houses are without a man,
The land is utterly desolate,
The Lord has removed men far away,
And the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land.
But yet a tenth will be in it,
And will return and be for consuming,
As a terebinth tree or as an oak,
Whose stump remains when it is cut down.
So the holy seed shall be its stump.”
