WEBVTT
00:00:00.420 --> 00:00:00.661
Well.
00:00:00.661 --> 00:00:02.245
Praise the Lord, hallelujah.
00:00:02.245 --> 00:00:03.928
Thank you, jesus.
00:00:03.928 --> 00:00:06.113
Glory to God.
00:00:06.113 --> 00:00:16.150
We are talking about enmity, with the seed Comes in to do damage.
00:00:16.150 --> 00:00:24.981
The enemy in this case is the Antichrist, the anti-anointed one, the anti-anointing Amen.
00:00:24.981 --> 00:00:27.213
Anointed one, the anti-anointing Amen.
00:00:27.213 --> 00:00:27.614
He is anti.
00:00:27.614 --> 00:00:42.508
He is against all of those who are consecrated, set apart, ordained and anointed of God for special purposes.
00:00:42.508 --> 00:00:46.966
He is against that.
00:00:46.966 --> 00:01:15.490
So if you are one of those, if you are one who is called of God, ordained of God, preordained of God, justified by God, glorified by God, set apart for holy purposes, set apart to praise him, created for the praise of the glory of his grace, if you're one of those folks, this spirit is against you.
00:01:15.490 --> 00:01:24.173
Now I'm going to say this that if God be for you, who can be against you?
00:01:24.173 --> 00:01:30.990
Well, he's one of the ones, that who can be against you, but God's still for you, amen.
00:01:30.990 --> 00:01:33.557
So you're going to win, amen.
00:01:33.557 --> 00:01:35.019
We got to understand this.
00:01:35.019 --> 00:01:46.215
This is why I'm preaching this series, because in this world, amen, you are going to be constantly confronted with the fact that God cannot win.
00:01:46.215 --> 00:01:55.213
In this world, there is hardly anybody anymore that stands up and says wait a minute.
00:01:55.213 --> 00:01:57.424
I've seen the end of this movie.
00:01:57.424 --> 00:02:03.504
I know how this is going to turn out, and I don't care what the other side is doing.
00:02:03.504 --> 00:02:07.733
They are professional losers.
00:02:07.733 --> 00:02:24.811
It may not look like it, but they are professional losers, and I belong to the one who is and cannot help, but be perpetually and always winning.
00:02:24.811 --> 00:02:28.719
What are you going to do against God?
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:33.824
I mean really, but the world does not know this.
00:02:33.824 --> 00:02:36.808
Amen, amen.
00:02:36.808 --> 00:02:46.187
So these messages about enmity with the seed are an antidote.
00:02:46.187 --> 00:02:50.120
You want to get a real vaccination.
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:57.912
This is a real vaccination if you get this revelation in your spirit.
00:02:57.912 --> 00:03:27.531
Amen, that whenever the enemy has come in and confronted a particular ministry of the anointed one and said we're not going to have that in the earth Like a flood, the spirit of God raised up a standard and said yes, we are, and this is how it's going to work, and this is what you're going to go through because you thought otherwise.
00:03:27.531 --> 00:03:29.645
Praise God.
00:03:29.645 --> 00:03:32.146
Are we getting a picture of this?
00:03:32.146 --> 00:03:40.806
See, when the earth was filled with violence and with sin, god literally sent a flood.
00:03:40.806 --> 00:03:44.467
Amen, that's where that scripture comes from.
00:03:44.467 --> 00:03:49.443
When the enemy comes in like a flood, the spirit of God will raise.
00:03:49.443 --> 00:03:57.145
Well, the backdrop for that scripture, which happened hundreds of years later, is the flood of Noah, amen.
00:03:57.145 --> 00:04:00.929
The earth was full of violence and it was full of sin.
00:04:00.929 --> 00:04:01.669
But what happened?
00:04:01.669 --> 00:04:06.515
God sent a flood, but there was a deliverance.
00:04:06.515 --> 00:04:13.270
God said this you can think that you've got the whole world.
00:04:13.270 --> 00:04:19.730
I'm going to have one, and in that one I'm going to save the sea.
00:04:19.730 --> 00:04:22.562
See, this is again.
00:04:23.302 --> 00:04:24.423
This is not about.
00:04:24.423 --> 00:04:37.336
This is not about it has never been about and it is not about making more people disobey God than the ones that obey God.
00:04:37.336 --> 00:04:39.267
It's never been a football game.
00:04:39.267 --> 00:04:40.543
It's never.
00:04:40.543 --> 00:04:41.004
You know.
00:04:41.004 --> 00:04:49.507
It's not about score, it's not about numbers, it's not about who's got who and who controls these territories, and all that's just a backdrop.
00:04:49.507 --> 00:04:55.773
It's always been about the seed, always.
00:04:58.461 --> 00:05:15.122
Now, the fact of the matter is that both sides know who has already won, that both sides know who has already won, but since they haven't got a chance of participating in the victory parade, they are perpetually upset.
00:05:15.122 --> 00:05:20.411
But you've already read the end of the book.
00:05:20.411 --> 00:05:31.350
You know where they're going to end up, you know what their destiny is all about and they also know Glory to God, hallelujah.
00:05:31.350 --> 00:06:07.372
Today we're going to move away from Abraham, nimrod, babylon, in a sense, and this battle that they had with the giants in both Babylon and in Canaan, and moved to the story of Moses, to see another major miracle develop because the Antichrist was trying to do something to the seed.
00:06:07.372 --> 00:06:19.908
Okay, now, if you remember, God told Abraham that I'm going to give you and your seed the possession of this land that you're sitting, that you're on.
00:06:19.908 --> 00:06:33.512
However, your seed is going to have to go into bondage for some 400 years and serve a nation that will treat them harshly, and I will judge that nation.
00:06:33.512 --> 00:06:40.711
That prophecy came to Abraham, so it was already set in concrete that that was going to happen.
00:06:40.711 --> 00:06:54.934
We're going to look a little bit at the reasons why that happened, amen and what happened during that period of time to set up the stage for Moses arriving on the scene.
00:06:54.934 --> 00:07:14.653
Because after Abraham, we have Isaac, we have Jacob, we have the 12 sons, we have the multitude that went down into Egypt, we have a great multitude grow up in Egypt, but the next major figure after Abraham is Moses Amen.
00:07:15.494 --> 00:07:28.526
Let's turn in our Bibles to Genesis, the 41st chapter, and I'm going to be reading a little bit of scripture today, because this is not scripture that we're all that familiar with.
00:07:28.526 --> 00:07:34.665
We don't go here and read this all the time Maybe some of you do but praise God.
00:07:34.665 --> 00:07:39.021
In Genesis, the 41st chapter, I'm going to start reading in verse 39.
00:07:39.021 --> 00:07:41.704
You know the story, amen.
00:07:41.704 --> 00:08:12.362
Joseph got sold into slavery by his brothers, amen, and he got taken to a place and was purchased by a man named Potiphar, remember that and Joseph had a little bit of trouble with Potiphar's wife, amen, and so he had Joseph thrown into jail, amen.
00:08:12.362 --> 00:08:22.713
And Joseph there made a relationship with some people who were also in jail because they had defrauded and stolen and done various things.
00:08:22.713 --> 00:08:23.797
You remember the story.
00:08:23.817 --> 00:08:24.879
The baker has a dream, stolen and done various things.
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:27.894
You remember the story.
00:08:27.894 --> 00:08:35.080
The baker has a dream and Joseph is given the interpretation of the dream, amen.
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:41.205
And so the baker gets out, he's exonerated and he goes back to working in Pharaoh's house, amen, and Pharaoh has a dream.
00:08:41.205 --> 00:08:52.511
You remember the story Seven lean cows, seven fat cows, and Pharaoh is trying to, you know, find out what this dream means.
00:08:52.511 --> 00:09:03.570
And the baker says you know, sir, I know a man that's in prison that if you call him, he can interpret your dream.
00:09:03.570 --> 00:09:05.955
So Pharaoh calls Joseph out of prison and he goes to Pharaoh's court.
00:09:05.955 --> 00:09:07.658
If you call him, he can interpret your dream.
00:09:07.658 --> 00:09:25.253
So Pharaoh calls Joseph out of prison and he goes to Pharaoh's court and he interprets Pharaoh's dream the seven fat cows are seven prosperous years and the seven lean cows are seven years of scarcity, of famine.
00:09:25.253 --> 00:09:35.832
Furthermore, joseph told the king that you should prepare.
00:09:35.832 --> 00:09:43.389
In the prosperous years, you should lay up, store up, and in the scarce years, then you'll have plenty.
00:09:43.389 --> 00:09:48.009
King says who is like this guy?
00:09:48.009 --> 00:09:51.548
And that's where we pick up the story.
00:09:51.548 --> 00:09:58.269
See, you've all heard about, you've all heard that part of the story.
00:09:58.269 --> 00:10:16.378
Everybody knows that part of the story right, inasmuch as God has shown you all this, inasmuch as God has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you.
00:10:16.378 --> 00:10:16.498
Amen.
00:10:16.498 --> 00:10:20.604
So this is what now.
00:10:20.624 --> 00:10:22.200
Let me just form the backdrop of what we're going to be talking about today.
00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:34.764
This is important the system of religion that came out of Babylon, the worship of Nimrod, the worship of his wife, the worship of his son.
00:10:34.764 --> 00:10:46.355
This became the cornerstone of almost all false religion on the planet, and a major wave of this.
00:10:46.355 --> 00:10:56.120
Now, remember, we're still talking about the offspring of Ham, not the offspring of Shem, nor the offspring of Japheth, the three sons of Noah.
00:10:56.120 --> 00:11:07.113
We're talking about the offspring of Ham who settled in what is now Iraq and Iran, that part of the world and they exported this religion.
00:11:07.113 --> 00:11:10.277
Trade, migration, who knows?
00:11:10.277 --> 00:11:26.927
But when the descendants of Ham settled into what is now Egypt and became the mightiest nation on the planet, amen, they brought the essence of that religion with them.
00:11:26.927 --> 00:11:42.650
They just changed the names, and so we have this religion that is, for all intents and purposes, a carbon copy of the Babylonian religion.
00:11:44.841 --> 00:11:53.847
They believe in reincarnation, they believe in an afterlife that is very similar in its structure.
00:11:53.847 --> 00:11:55.611
It is not what we believe, but it's.
00:11:55.611 --> 00:11:56.533
You know.
00:11:56.533 --> 00:12:11.866
They built pyramids, they buried people in them, they embalmed, they did all this kind of stuff because they were trying to build in some sort of an escape valve just in case God sent another flood.
00:12:11.866 --> 00:12:19.390
Oh yeah, listen, you're only a few centuries away from the flood.
00:12:19.390 --> 00:12:23.211
If you don't think that's still in everybody's head.
00:12:23.211 --> 00:12:30.471
I mean, here we are all these, many, many millennia since then and we're still making movies about it.
00:12:30.471 --> 00:12:37.033
We still got an ark in southern Illinois or Indiana, full size.
00:12:37.033 --> 00:12:39.828
I mean, is anybody listening to me?
00:12:39.828 --> 00:12:47.145
It's still one of the most important things that's ever happened on the planet and people still talk about it.
00:12:47.145 --> 00:12:51.606
Glory to God, hallelujah.
00:12:55.360 --> 00:13:01.273
So Egypt had the same type of government.
00:13:01.273 --> 00:13:01.894
Now watch this.
00:13:01.894 --> 00:13:25.491
Not only did they worship a system of false gods that was a father, a mother and a son, amen, but they also worshiped and they elevated those people, whoever they were, to a position of kingship and rulership and elevated it to a position of godship.
00:13:25.491 --> 00:13:40.107
So when you get over into Egypt and you get the dynasty of the pharaohs which was the situation when Moses showed up he came across a pharaoh named Ramses, amen.
00:13:40.107 --> 00:13:45.475
Now, not only was he a king, but he was also a god.
00:13:45.475 --> 00:13:48.644
Now, he really wasn't.
00:13:48.644 --> 00:13:54.129
We know that and they knew it, but you know, the people didn't know it.
00:13:54.129 --> 00:13:59.672
They treated the king as a god.
00:13:59.672 --> 00:14:03.980
This was just right out of the page book of Babylon.
00:14:03.980 --> 00:14:21.846
This is exactly what Nimrod and his wife and his son did, and the whole purpose of this is to steer attention away from the real seed and the bloodline that is transporting this seed to its destiny.
00:14:21.866 --> 00:14:32.567
Okay, listen, jezebel could care less about all of the people that go to hell because of her false religions.
00:14:32.567 --> 00:14:33.389
She could care less.
00:14:33.389 --> 00:14:37.182
She didn't care, and her purpose is not to populate hell.
00:14:37.182 --> 00:14:48.195
The purpose of Jezebel, the purpose of Antichrist, the purpose of death and hell is not to get everybody into hell and go.
00:14:48.195 --> 00:14:49.035
We won the game.
00:14:49.035 --> 00:14:53.171
The purpose is to keep the seed from his destiny.
00:14:53.171 --> 00:14:57.904
Well, the Bible says that.
00:14:58.085 --> 00:15:06.375
Out of their own mouth, they said if we had known what this Jesus was all about and what his death was going to be, we'd have never killed him.
00:15:06.375 --> 00:15:09.426
Well, it's too late now.
00:15:09.426 --> 00:15:11.126
The cat's out of the bag, as they say.
00:15:11.126 --> 00:15:14.802
You know, there's nothing that they can do about it.
00:15:14.802 --> 00:15:17.245
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
00:15:17.245 --> 00:15:41.168
So now what they have to do, all they have to do, is mess with the seed that Jesus has created and populated the earth with Amen, because if he can exterminate us, or if he can block us, or if he keep, keep us from our destiny, then the plan of God will still be thwarted.
00:15:41.168 --> 00:15:46.333
God will still be thwarted.
00:15:46.333 --> 00:15:52.149
They have been more successful at doing this than they have at blocking Jesus from going to Calvary.
00:15:52.149 --> 00:16:10.263
Amen, that one didn't work, but they have for sure gone in the middle of the destinies of a lot of people that could have been much more in Christ than they were because of false religion.
00:16:10.263 --> 00:16:30.437
But regardless of that, what I'm trying to get, the point I'm trying to make, is this that these false religions are always in a position to block what God is trying to do through his people.
00:16:30.437 --> 00:16:32.841
Amen.
00:16:32.841 --> 00:16:39.386
In Shinar and in Canaan they were trying to block that he was sending Abraham's seed to Egypt.
00:16:39.386 --> 00:17:05.013
This same false religion pops up in Egypt and develops and gets in place to block the work of God when he sends his people to Egypt.
00:17:05.354 --> 00:17:10.768
So Pharaoh says to Joseph, he says in verse 40, you shall be over my house.
00:17:10.768 --> 00:17:13.906
In other words, he is elevating.
00:17:13.906 --> 00:17:17.931
Just remember, you know, a few minutes ago Joseph was in jail.
00:17:17.931 --> 00:17:21.964
He didn't look good, he didn't smell good.
00:17:21.964 --> 00:17:23.164
You know he didn't.
00:17:23.164 --> 00:17:31.692
You know, last time he had a good day was the day he ran out of Potiphar's house and left his shirt behind.
00:17:31.692 --> 00:17:34.788
You know, I mean, he hadn't had a good day since.
00:17:34.788 --> 00:17:41.892
Then Told the baker on his way out don't forget me, I'm in here, go forget God.
00:17:41.892 --> 00:17:48.430
And so here he is and Pharaoh is saying you are the wisest person in the kingdom.
00:17:48.430 --> 00:17:49.942
I'm going to put you over.
00:17:49.942 --> 00:17:55.472
All of my house and all of my people shall be ruled according to your word.
00:17:55.472 --> 00:18:02.067
Hey, the guy's king, he can do whatever he wants.
00:18:02.067 --> 00:18:19.049
But I'm telling you, the princes in his family were not happy to hear this news, because they just got leapfrogged by this foreigner who had just been in jail.
00:18:19.901 --> 00:18:20.803
How does this work?
00:18:20.803 --> 00:18:24.011
Just because you can interpret dreams, you get to do this.
00:18:24.011 --> 00:18:50.682
But what had happened was that none of the magicians had and this is kind of the story that weaves its way through this time between Joseph and Moses and everything else in that we've got this ongoing thing between the magicians that ruled, they ruled, they ruled.
00:18:50.682 --> 00:18:53.527
They were the ruling class in Egypt.
00:18:53.527 --> 00:19:18.492
You had the Pharaoh and his elevated status as a god and then underneath him was this whole layer of priests and you can say priest and you can think of, you know, a Catholic priest, but the better way of seeing them, you know, is the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain.
00:19:18.492 --> 00:19:19.580
They were magicians.
00:19:19.580 --> 00:19:29.635
When the Bible calls the three wise men, magi, that's what they were called.
00:19:29.635 --> 00:19:36.946
They were magicians, they knew secret arts, they knew the black arcs, they knew.
00:19:36.946 --> 00:19:50.920
Do you know that?
00:19:50.940 --> 00:19:51.340
The library?
00:19:51.340 --> 00:19:54.305
There was a great library assembled in Alexandria, egypt.
00:19:54.305 --> 00:20:08.826
It contained most of the documents that went back to the flood and came forward there was a great fire and almost all of that information.
00:20:08.826 --> 00:20:13.288
It was the greatest library of magical arts that the world had ever assembled.
00:20:13.288 --> 00:20:23.446
There was a similar library that was like that in Ephesus and when Paul broke loose in Ephesus, the Bible says that they brought all of those books and burned them.
00:20:23.446 --> 00:20:43.374
The Bible says that they brought all of those books and burned them Because the whole world was given over to this religion of magic and incantations and spells and summoning up demons and summoning up the powers of hell to cooperate with the powers of men.
00:20:44.541 --> 00:20:47.088
This is exactly what the giants taught.
00:20:47.088 --> 00:20:50.085
This is exactly what the fallen angels taught.
00:20:50.085 --> 00:20:59.433
They taught these incantations, they taught how to do this, they taught this kind of stuff and people were into it.
00:20:59.433 --> 00:21:00.678
Listen to me very carefully.
00:21:00.678 --> 00:21:02.182
I'm going to tell you some stuff.
00:21:02.182 --> 00:21:03.202
You know this stuff.
00:21:03.202 --> 00:21:04.365
You've heard me say it before.
00:21:04.506 --> 00:21:25.776
I'm not trying to be graphic, but leading up to the temple in Diana, the temple of Diana in Ephesus was nothing but blocks and blocks and blocks and blocks and blocks of brothels, and they were not just there for people to.
00:21:25.776 --> 00:21:31.512
It was institutionalized magic, witchcraft.
00:21:31.512 --> 00:22:00.291
In other words, every step that you took and every time you went in and did such things, it was supposed to elevate not only the level of magic in you but the overall level of magic that was in the area, and it would literally supercharge that mountain where the temple of Diana was in that statue that towered so much high in the air, amen, that electricity would actually flow off of that statue.
00:22:00.291 --> 00:22:08.882
You're not hearing me, see, we don't live in that kind of world.
00:22:08.882 --> 00:22:12.710
We don't live in a world where that kind of stuff well, maybe it does and we just don't see it.
00:22:12.710 --> 00:22:17.567
But in that day it was real.
00:22:19.731 --> 00:22:26.480
And when Paul, when Paul went to Ephesus and there was, you know, great is Diana, great is Diana, great is Diana.
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:32.905
And they assembled in that thing and Paul wanted to testify, they said you need to get out of here, paul.
00:22:32.905 --> 00:22:33.868
This isn't going to work.
00:22:33.868 --> 00:22:35.105
You can't testify here.
00:22:35.105 --> 00:22:37.768
They will kill you right here, on the spot.
00:22:37.768 --> 00:22:40.765
You are public enemy number one.
00:22:40.765 --> 00:22:50.019
Praise God, me number one.
00:22:50.019 --> 00:22:51.682
Praise God, all the people shall be ruled according to your word.
00:22:51.682 --> 00:22:52.824
Only in regard to the throne will I be greater than you.
00:22:52.844 --> 00:22:54.665
And Pharaoh said to Joseph now watch this.
00:22:54.665 --> 00:22:57.607
I have set you over all the land of Egypt.
00:22:57.607 --> 00:23:00.557
And then Pharaoh took off his signet ring.
00:23:00.557 --> 00:23:01.701
You know what that meant.
00:23:01.701 --> 00:23:10.054
Joseph could have written a letter the next day and said the sky is purple.
00:23:10.054 --> 00:23:15.695
Boom, signed Pharaoh, bring Joseph all of your money.
00:23:15.695 --> 00:23:17.540
Boom, pharaoh.
00:23:17.540 --> 00:23:24.220
Pharaoh, I want 10,000 of the best horses here tomorrow.
00:23:24.220 --> 00:23:32.436
Pharaoh, that's what a signet ring will do, because there was only one.
00:23:32.436 --> 00:23:34.174
Oh, you're not hearing me.
00:23:34.174 --> 00:23:37.880
You don't get a whole bunch of what gives a whole bunch of signet rings.
00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:46.041
They're absolutely useless if there's a whole bunch of them, but if there's one, glory to God.
00:23:46.569 --> 00:23:54.337
Gave him the signet ring, clothed him in garments of fine linen this is important and put a gold chain around his neck.
00:23:54.337 --> 00:24:02.343
I can almost guarantee that what was at the end of that chain was an ankh.
00:24:02.343 --> 00:24:02.720
You know what an ankh is?
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:03.137
That's the cross that has the circle.
00:24:03.137 --> 00:24:03.690
At the end of that chain was an ankh.
00:24:03.690 --> 00:24:03.864
You know what an ankh is?
00:24:03.864 --> 00:24:07.736
That's the cross that has the circle at the top.
00:24:07.736 --> 00:24:11.983
It's not a true cross, it's the Egyptian cross.
00:24:11.983 --> 00:24:17.561
It crosses this way, comes down this way, but right here there's an oblong circle.
00:24:17.561 --> 00:24:18.383
You've all seen them.
00:24:18.383 --> 00:24:30.010
Seen them.
00:24:30.030 --> 00:24:34.338
Pharaoh also said to Joseph I am Pharaoh and without your consent, no man may lift his hand or foot in all of the land of Egypt.
00:24:34.338 --> 00:24:34.980
Now, pharaoh.
00:24:34.980 --> 00:24:38.132
The Bible says that Pharaoh gave Joseph a new name.
00:24:38.132 --> 00:24:46.845
He called him Zepnath-Paneah, which means he who deciphered the hidden.
00:24:46.845 --> 00:24:50.679
He who deciphered the hidden.
00:24:50.679 --> 00:25:06.002
Now, that pertains to Joseph's ability, or God-given ability, to interpret dreams, but it also applies to that which he was about to be appointed to.
00:25:08.010 --> 00:25:18.673
Now, listen, if Joseph is going to be accepted in Egyptian society, the Pharaoh knows that he can't be just marrying anybody.
00:25:18.673 --> 00:25:36.615
You know he just can't walk out and you know, and, and you know he doesn't have any people there he can't say Pharaoh, let me send back to my family in Canaan and get them to send some, a nice little Jewish girl over here for me to you know.
00:25:36.615 --> 00:25:41.384
You know, like my, my dad did.
00:25:41.384 --> 00:25:44.740
You know, my dad went over and he got, you know, rachel.
00:25:44.740 --> 00:25:47.049
And my granddad went over and he got Rebecca.
00:25:47.049 --> 00:25:50.601
I need to send back to, you know, my kinfolk and get me a wife.
00:25:51.670 --> 00:25:54.077
Pharaoh goes no, no, that won't work here.
00:25:54.077 --> 00:25:59.102
Son, you're no longer a nice little Jewish boy that got sold into slavery.
00:25:59.102 --> 00:26:02.178
You're the equivalent of the son of Pharaoh.
00:26:02.178 --> 00:26:08.897
You wouldn't have to the son of Pharaoh, you're going to have to marry somebody of significance, amen.
00:26:08.897 --> 00:26:27.103
So he marries him off to a woman named Asenath, which means she belongs to Naath or Net or one of the original gods of the Egyptian deity.
00:26:27.103 --> 00:26:31.079
She belongs to a false god.
00:26:33.212 --> 00:27:01.067
Anybody listening to any of this, he who discerns the hidden, is now married to the daughter of a false god, is now married to the daughter of a false god, whose father happens to be the priest of On, which is a worship center some 20 miles north of Cairo, whose priesthood is the elite of all of the priests.
00:27:01.067 --> 00:27:06.694
They are the most highly trained, they are the most highly educated.
00:27:06.694 --> 00:27:09.944
And listen, they weren't sitting there studying Shakespeare.
00:27:09.944 --> 00:27:15.538
They weren't sitting there studying the great works of the Egyptian playwrights.
00:27:15.538 --> 00:27:28.791
They were studying the works of black arts of past priests so that they could develop them and hone them and turn them into even greater power.
00:27:30.434 --> 00:27:35.582
Joseph now has a white robe of a high priest.
00:27:35.582 --> 00:27:42.759
He has the gold chain that tells him he is of the highest priesthood.
00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:45.022
You're not hearing me?
00:27:45.022 --> 00:27:49.357
Nobody's going to listen to Joseph if he doesn't look the part.
00:27:49.357 --> 00:28:06.250
He's got the robes of a high priest, he's got the chain of a high priest, he's got the daughter of a high priest and he's got a name that goes with the high priesthood and his wife has a name that goes with the high priesthood and his wife has a name that goes with the high priesthood.
00:28:06.730 --> 00:28:09.615
Now, I've preached this a long time.
00:28:09.615 --> 00:28:24.645
Most people don't agree with me and most people have trouble with this because you have been taught that Joseph is the most perfect type of Christ in the Old Testament.
00:28:24.645 --> 00:28:33.844
But I don't think that's true and I would argue strenuously that Isaac is the Christ of the New Testament.
00:28:33.844 --> 00:28:35.515
Joseph is not.
00:28:35.515 --> 00:28:37.516
Joseph's got some problems.
00:28:37.516 --> 00:28:48.077
Joseph's got some issues that keep him from being that, and I know that better men than I have preached this, and I'm not arguing with him.
00:28:48.077 --> 00:29:09.381
I'm just saying we need to consider a different thing, because the proof is in the pudding, and the proof of the pudding is that neither of his sons carried forth his tradition and by the time the allotment was given in Canaan and Ephraim and Manasseh got more property than anybody else.
00:29:11.991 --> 00:29:29.498
It still happened that the source of the rebellion against David, the anointed of God, the rebellion against David, the anointed of God, the rebellion against David the anointed of God, the rebellion of David against David the anointed of God what does this sound like?
00:29:29.498 --> 00:29:31.863
Who do you think was behind that?
