My soul exalts, the Lord. My spirit has rejoiced in God my savior for he has had regard for the humble state of his bond slave for behold from this time on all generations will count me blessed for the mighty one has done great things for me. And holy is his name and his Mercy is upon generation. After generation toward those who fear Him. He has done Mighty deed with his arm, he has scattered those who are proud in the fox of the heart has brought down rulers from their Thrones. And he is exalted those who were humble. He has filled the Hungry with good things and sent away the rich empty-handed. He has given help to Israel his servants remembrance of his Mercy, as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham, and his offspring forever. dearly father, we can relate to this prayer Lord in the Gospel of Luke Recognizing your magnificent fulfillments, not just of the Prophecies of Israel but lord of the promises of your character in The provision that comes to those who are yours. So we thank you for this time that we have to study your word. This time, we had to gather together in prayer time to reflect on practicalities and just the playing things that need to be prayed for. So we would pray with detailed and where we can't. We pray with the supplication asking you Lord God, to intervene in ways that we can't understand. We know that your provision is such that you go before us even answering our needs before, we've had a chance to ask them what's specificity. He had you called us to pray accurately, because we need to understand our relationship with you. And that you are the Solar over needs to take this time of worship or if we have in the unconfessed Sin left hanging over us. And now at this time at this moment, we confess them that we might be those who are cleansed and filled provided for that. We went walking to righteousness, not our own, but provided for, by the Lord Jesus Christ. Do we have that ability in our spiritual thinking and living to the guided led by your spirit for this time would be used for your glory, for all those who hear it. Both here now and then the recordings and on the internet. Etc. And then do we think you in Christ's name? Amen.

I thought everything was working. Google, slide screen. Froze up. While we were praying. Must be the digital demons. Those are the worst kind you're not mentioned in scripture, but I've added them to my category. You

digital demons.

All right so well last week we were including some of our understanding of the what's going on. That helps us to realize that the but the Kingdom and The Covenant of peace.

Is the same thing as the New Covenant that is described both in the prophetic literature and in the New Testament. So

New Covenant and the Covenant of Peace are about the same thing. They were about the prophetic Kingdom, but we ruled over by the Maasai of the Messianic Kingdom.

so, I think the last thing we ended on You were looking at.

Couple things we brought up number one, is that the Shekinah Glory of God will be over the temple and over his people. And the, he has promised to help his Shekinah over all the physical Israel, at least over the Temple Mount, and then when people come from far away, and not only will they be coming and seeing the sacrificial system, set up to teach them about the atoning work, the provisional work done by the Lord Jesus Christ, but they will see over the temple. And over the mount, the Shekinah Glory of God as just like in Israel or just, like, in the time after Egypt, it will be functioning as a cloud by day and as a fire by night, and it will be Sheltering them from the rain. So there be a built-in If you will, that will be there for a thousand years. So there isn't going to be any of this concept in the Messianic Kingdom. I don't know if there's a God, I can't see him anywhere. Show me where there's a God.

They will be able to look up and see it and I when they come as Gentiles to bring their offerings and bring what they were supposed to be bringing as a part of their own eyes to the Messiah, the king of all of the earth, they will be coming. And seeing that there is a Shekinah Glory of God himself over the temple, over Jerusalem, and will be part of their indoctrination, part of their teaching. So while we may be lights on our understanding of the Shekinah Glory, and I think we've done a little bit to bridge the gap on that, with our teachings of the last several months, we've gotten a little bit more insight into what's going on with your glory. People on planet Earth during the Messianic Kingdom will absolutely be aware of the Shekinah, Glory and see it. As a proclamation of God, keeping his Covenant with Israel. One of several things that they will see it will cause the Gentiles to recognize that Israel is indeed and a covenant relationship with God. There is no doubt about it.

So, we saw that the Shekinah was over the millennial Jerusalem as the Shekinah Glory has always been over God's people. And with God's people, the man we saw that there was a New Jerusalem, it's going to be over the Earth, which is below and then it will be a function in that same way in the Eternal Kingdom. So just as we have pictures of the Shekinah, Glory, during the Old Testament.

B Pacific points, through history. But specifically, to put the approval of God, they're on the communication gifts that are being given. So Moses is authenticated. The various judges and profits are authenticated because of the Shekinah Glory. The leadership that God is establishing Israel to be its own Nation, burst out of the Captivity, all of that is recognized. And all of that is seen because of the Shekinah Glory Shekinah. Glory also works in a similar sense. As the Messiah himself, the Shekinah Glory amongst us as we looked at our studies and John chapter one specifically verse 14. We find that he is the Shekinah. Glory Express in Hume. Saturday. And he is the promise of God being with us made visible and seeing as the Messiah who appear to Israel and appeared for all of mankind. So then we move into the church age. We find the, we ourselves are the Shekinah Glory. We haven't quite gotten to that incorporated. In a few of the things that are coming up here in the next couple of weeks. And so, we'll touch on that a bit and we may not be able to visit it exhaustively, but we will be understanding. We are the repository of the Shekinah Glory because God dwells in us, God the Father God, the son. God, the spirit is in the, we are God's Shekinah. Glory representation here on Earth, until that time. Which would be one of the reasons when people say, well, what is it? And then the second Thessalonians chapter 2, what is it? That is holding back because we are told that these things are being kept from happening because of something that is here on Earth. And what is that? What is that Ray Rayner? That's talked about there and some people have come down these as well. As obviously, God, the holy spirit is the restrainer, but God, the holy spirit is going to be in the tribulation.

Just the body of Christ won't be in the tribulation, but here's an interesting thing to think about the Shekinah Glory, which is been with Israel in the Old Testament Israel during during what we sometime if we're being very careful, we might call the, the dispensation of the hypostatic Union. We're not creating a new and separate. Dispensation, we're just pointing out that there's something, you need, it was happening during the time when Christ was here on Earth. And so during that, dispensation for that timeline, Jesus Christ was the Shekinah Glory. That was there in the midst of Israel. And then Acts chapter 2. We find, we are the Shekinah Glory expressed in tongues of Fire. On the heads of the people during Pentecost, which will be digging into that soon enough. And then we have some very interesting things happening, but the New Testament is quite clear that we have the Shekinah Glory of God because Christ is in us. Now, the Shekinah Glory is in the body of Christ and so it is continually here. The Shekinah Glory is continually here on Earth until The Rapture and at the rapture, we are yanked out of here. We are all seized and the dead will rise first and we will be changed in an instance, believe that those who have gone before have one millisecond of Advantage, they will be changed and they're waiting to greet us with open arms. As we are instantly changed then we just slightly thereby follow them. Not sure how you break down Ms, but apparently it will be enough, that it will be worthwhile. God knows what he's doing and he has his plan. But at that point, the Shekinah Glory of God is lifted off the planet Earth. And then we have that quick motion of events because there is no longer a restrainer on Earth and we enter into the tribulation. Starting with the signing of the agreement. The invoking of the beginning of the first week of Daniel's last week, that is talked about prophetically, we have that moving forward. Then of 7 years with a false peace with a false Messiah, and a false Temple. And then there will be placed at three and a half years Point. What? I might suggest is a false Shekinah Glory and God's judgment will fall. In immediately will have the wrath of God for the continuing three and a half years. And we will not see the Shekinah Glory of God again. Excuse me, until Christ himself returns.

And he will return bodily and he will return as the Lord saw a bald, he is the Lord of hosts and his armies, which we will be part of will return instantly to battle against those who have opposed God, and oppose Israel.

The Helmsman rusting thing. It's been suggested and there is some basis for this that Jesus Christ, controls history and what we have going on in our modern culture. In our modern society is merely a reflection of the maturity and the turning to Bible doctrine of the sing. It is the church. Those reflection, the church that we see on Earth, there's a few reasons that we can say. There is plausibility for that. Now part of that whole basis for that Doctrine comes out of taking Revelation, Chapter 2, through 3 and breaking the seven churches up into periods of history and saying that we are Marching through those periods of history. Now we reject that view though. There has been some in the dispensational camp who have accepted that but another idea has come up alongside it, which is each of, those is a category of what's going on inside the church. And that is an expression of what's happening there for. God. Is dealing with each. Situation each milieu for the church differently in a maybe different geographically. Maybe look, there is a different situation happening in China or in Russia. Then there is in the United States from a different situation happening in South Africa than there is in Central America or in Europe. So there are some interesting ways that you can spin that through. But we do know this that God multiplies through the wives of Believers in the we are

Sources of blessing. So we have the doctrine of invisible Heroes. It teaches us about being blessings to those around us and one individual Walking rightly with God, can be that which changes gods and tired of dealing with an entire department in a company. Entire division in maybe an entire company itself. Talkin about, maybe there is someone working at Harry and David right now I'm not anymore. I used to But maybe one person walking rightly with God and that place was a winner. Believer, God is saying, I'm going to bless and prosper. This company in ways that are unexpected and people go and I just don't get it, we did everything wrong and yet everything is going so, right? And that can be a basis of thing and just be God, General Grace. But sometimes there is that blessing by association through winter, Believers, or apartment, will the same thing. We have cursing by association throughout believers who are

Your car knows the beginning of it yet. There they are. Certainly in a bad place and we certainly see a lot of that here in United States. So, you know what, what winds out is there a Tipping Point is, or a certain percentage of Christians that need to be mature and winter, Believers and oriented towards God versus those, who are the loser? Believers in the pools, to the teaching of God, while there's no magic numbers given in scripture, but we certainly get the idea. So here's the here's a question. Is it possible that the church is The Blessing by association for the entire Earth? That is keeping us from moving into the final days and when the church is listed in the Shekinah, Glory is no longer on planet Earth. But suddenly there is a rapid possibility for a quick turn into the Versity of anti-god sentiment that we know is going to take over the leadership of the entire planet. The people are going to shake their fists. We read in Revelation or shake their fist at God. They will be opposed to God himself not figuratively. This isn't an idea of I just don't like how things are going in life. This is they will point out the aware of God himself and they will be rejecting him and shaking their fists at him. Well. Don't know.

So we will have the New Jerusalem in the Eternal Kingdom. Over the earth below. The Shekinah. Glory will be in the New Jerusalem itself. We will not need a light because he will be our light. If I can find.

and a

Rosalia.

Jesus people Christian group from the 1970s and 80s.

What are the things that kept happening? They have these concerts and they were never the Hard Rock, high or style. They sing a lot of songs. A lot of wonderful songs and pack some that you would recognize like

Hey, I got a mixed up who did, who, what song is like? Hear the bells ringing. They're singing that we can be born again about the resurrection.

Anyways, they sang a number of songs like that, with the wish just became, you know, mainstream, you know, cultural wonderful songs.

But I was just sharing this one. Previously, if I can get it to pull up here.

And it was actually they were doing the number of him to take. I can look at that, will do more harm and that

to do the work with me.

Work. Waiting for us. He has formed me from the dust and to dust, I shall return. He has made me in his life and to lie, I shall return and I'll be free at last to lay it. All down free at last to wear my crown that he sat with the jewels of love. He placed in my car and the sun will never rise again, or he will be my light. My heart will never never, Never break his heart again. So what's up? It's a beautiful, kind of a Fanny Crosby kind of, you know lyric and and sound to it and and sentiment. But she's pointing out here that we won't need a sun because the sun isn't going to rise because the Lord is our son. We were told, he will be our light and we will be laying down our crowns at his feet. Constantly, cast them at his feet pointing out the grace Beast, olment that he has set these crowns with jewels of Love place in our heart, just done a magnificent short and simple. Beautiful little him. But whenever I get to this point I'm thinking about the Eternal Jerusalem hanging over the Earth. I'm thinking about this, it's often pops into my mind. You know that Heather is not going to be a light and it's just a Joyful Joyful sentiment that we are formed from the Dustin that we will return to buy. We are formed from light and two light. We will return and that lights environment is what we're going to see in the Eternal Kingdom, where the Shekinah Glory of God himself, as the source of all of our lives. In fact, the light of all of the Earth, So, interesting time, there is actually going to be for us in the Eternal Kingdom at least based on Revelation. Bulls last few chapters there being about the Eternal Kingdom. If that is the case, then we will be bringing an omage. There will be an agricultural agrarian society on the earth and we will be bringing from the Harvest. Obviously, it will be a deeply different thing even as far beyond the millennial Kingdom as the millennial kingdom is far beyond what we have on Earth right now. So Fun stuff.

Well, wanted to move on to the Gentile Nations.

Recognizing.

Yahweh.

the Gentile Nations recognizing Yahweh.

Receiver, Gentile Nations recognize, Israel's God has the only true God. This will be in the Messianic era because as a result of the Messianic Covenant, he has restored and he has reunified the nation of Israel. He has revived davidic rule, underneath the Messiah. So David himself and certain Royals across time will be ruling under the Messiah. Yes, they will be resurrected. Yes. They will be ruling during the Messianic. And

The. Returned, Shekinah presence to the midst of Israel at the Messianic Temple is kind of the final piece. So there's all these things that they're seeing that they're recognizing Ezekiel 37.

Verse 28 with this.

Cremations also will know that. I the word sanctify is really upset them apart and have made them my own When My Sanctuary is in their midst forever more. So, that's the last verse in the section, we been reading. We've been taking steps of time in the last few verses, 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28 in part of that, is we needed to figure it out. A lot of what has been going on. I haven't gone through and reviewed it all. We're almost all the way there though, the millennial Kingdom. Mowing from a covenant of peace.

Will be a bold contrast to the conditions of the tribulation, that all the Gentile Believers will be coming out of as they get moved into the millennial phase of planet Earth.

The missus, what immediately precedes, the millennial kingdom is that tribulation. We see that in Revelation chapter 6, verse for another horse fly, reread went out, and it was granted to the one, who sat on it, to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another, and there was given to hear them, a great sword. So only a pseudo peace appears for Israel. Beginning at that first day of the tribulation during the first half of the tribulation and I will see you at in 1st Thessalonians, chapter 5, verse 3, for Wednesday, peace and safety. Then sudden, destruction comes upon them. Does labor pains upon a pregnant woman of, they shall not Escape. It's that idea here is once it started. It's inevitable. Once a pregnancy starts, boilards, you get your 9 months and babies coming birth. Pains are coming. There is going to be a birth.

Next way to see the peace, Covenant. Is contrasted with the tribulation. We got a few things to look at here. So, for the readers of Ezekiel. That's the exact time of its writing the prophecy provides a dramatic contrast to the conditions of deceptive piece of false prophets. Another words, Ezekiel is written. During the next LA. Israel is in captivity, they are in Babylon. He is at the banks of the river in front of an outside of Babylon. Is it receives much of this prophecy and writes it down? There is a contrast to the conditions that Israel was in at the very time he Penzeys. And there were a lot of false prophets were coming along. We're trying to deceive Israel while they're in Exile while they were there, and Babylon to look at a couple of those. Just so you have seen them, Jeremiah 6 verse 14. They have also healed the hurt of my people slightly saying peace, peace. When there is no peace. So, there's profits coming in and saying we've got peace for you.

Jeremiah 8 verse 11 for. They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly. Again, we have this term which means really they didn't. They came in to give you healing but really they didn't. Say, peace, peace, when there is no peace, that is a false prophet speaking. A false thing, trying to stand on a false presentation saying 10 of The Wizard of Oz event. We become so used to don't, look at that person behind. The curtain has really they're pulling the cables and everything. Don't look, don't look. We turn on our TV daily and we hear that. Don't look at the person behind the curtains. Google Wizard of Oz Doctrine into our teaching here. But also a couple of verses later down and never see 15 of Jeremiah chapter 8. We read we looked for peace but no good came in for a time of health and there was trouble so we're like we listen to the prophets. You said there's peace coming. We're looking we're watching, we're paying attention. And there was trouble instead you say good things are coming over and charge such good. Things are now going to come for those of you who had the same values and who believe the bad is good and good as bad. We move down to Jeremiah 12 verse 12.

The plunderers have, I'm all the desolate Heights in the wilderness for the stored in. The Lawrence will devour her from one end of the lands of the other end of the land. No flash shall have peace, support of what we have is people who are in Exile, in Babylon. We have profits for their Daniel and Ezekiel were riding their writings while they're in Babylon. And we have also people who are in the land of Israel with scattered individuals who are being obliterated by hordes and other individuals, other enemies of the land who want to come and take will let you work the land. Sure. And then as soon as this worked and ready to harvest, they come in and take it all Jeremiah 14:19. Have you out early rejected? Judah has your soul loathed Zion. Why have you stripped in us? So that there is no healing for us. We look for peace but there was no good for the time of healing and there was trouble to like we are promises. We know there's promises. You've talked about this coming, good to see in impart. What's happening in Israel is not understanding. Some of these prophecies are quite specific in their about the second Advent, Messianic Kingdom. They are understanding the link to the Maasai other starting to get that, but many were just holding on to the promise. Ain't no good. Things are going to come. I'll grab that one. Do we have? Jeremiah 16, verse 15 but the Lord Lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north. And from all the lands where he had driven them for I will bring them back into their land, which I gave to their fathers. So here we have a promise of restoration out of the lands from where they have been driven. I will bring the back into their land which I have given to their fathers. Now we have something, something meaningful, something from God, that can be hung on to Jeremiah 30 verse 54. That says the Lord, we have heard a voice of trembling and not of Peace. Speaking again of what they're experiencing versus what they're wanting to experience.

Imagine the kind of video recap prophetically speaking. Anyways, from the book of Lamentations you have moved. My soul far from p. I have forgotten prosperity.

So this is the state of us. All of those people who have not received the piece that they were looking for a mate to put it up there in a minute.

All right, so we come to our conclusion than of the passage. We've been working our way through and we finally come to a conclusion. Concerning the results of our study from Ezekiel 37 vs 15 of 3 verse 28, in terms of the prophecy showing that the unconditional Covenant promise, Will find its fulfillment through the Theocratic. Kingdom of Messiah will be under the direct rulership of the Messiah, but this fulfilled, New Covenant. coming into peas society and Kingdom will come about This will be with either the Messiah as King, in fulfillment of the davidic Covenant, or in concert with a resurrected, David, who will rule under the massage for the Messiah and specifically over a reunited Israel. So for those people who want to make a distinction and say, which is, it is Messiah ruling, or is David ruling. Then we can look at them with complete integrity and we say, yes,

Both are true, uce David will be ruling under Messiah, and he will be ruling. He will be a. Not a cool Regents but he will be a sub region to the Messiah and the Messiah will be ruling over all of the earth David, however, will be ruling over all of Israel, only. And then we will be ruling and reigning with price over all of the other Gentile Nations. So, God is our call.

I want to reread our our passage Ezekiel 37 verses 15 through 28 just to have it. Freshened mind again, the word of the Lord came to me saying house for you. Son of man. Take a stick for yourself and write on it for Judah and for the children of Israel his companions, then take another stick and write on it for Joseph, The Stick of that Priam. And for all the house of Israel, his companions for 17, then join them one to another for yourself into one stick and they will become one in your hand. And when verse 18, the children of your people speak to you saying, will you not show us what you mean by these? Then verse 19 say to them. Says the Lord God surely I will take the Stick of Joseph which is in the hand of Ephraim and the tribes of Israel. His companions and I will join with it with the Stick of Judah and make them one stick and they will be one in my hand.

What a beautiful things about weddings, by the way.

one of the things that I learned long ago about a single miss, or singlehood, if you will, There are many individuals who are running around and they seem to be rocks and stricken with this. I am half. I am, I'm half of an individual and you even hear the comments. Have you found your other half yet? But, you know, the miracle of a wedding is not the, god takes two halves and he makes the whole. It said he takes a whole individual in person in a hole in the vidual, one person he brings them together and he makes them a foal individual joined together. That is the Christian. The mystery wonder that is actually been baked into Creation in humanity. That went to join together. They become one in that sense. And that what we have Happening Here Is God saying that very thing.

So if there's anyone running around saying, I feel like half of a person because I can't find my other half, you just tell him while you got it backwards, you're a whole person. And when you find someone else, if you do, then the miracle is not going to be that you found your other half the Miracles going to be that he takes two whole individuals and makes a whole married individual joined unit. You will be joined together. And that's what we see happening here to Stix brought together. They are one there, actually, one country again, in the sticks on which you write will be in your hand before their eyes, where's 21 and say to them, that says the Lord, God, surely. I will take the children of Israel from among the Nations wherever they have gone. It will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land. Where is 22? And I will make them one mission in the land, on the mountain of Israel. Then one king, you shall be king over them. All they shall no longer be two Nations. Nor shall they ever be divided into two kingdoms again?

Never heard this verse what the Lord has joined together.

Remember who said that? It was Christ is what the Lord has joined together. Let not man separate nor can he Force 23? They shall not defile themselves anymore. With the Royals were talking about joining together being prepared, Messianic Kingdom and promised Noir with their detestable things nor with any of their transgressions but I will deliver them from all their Dwelling Places in which they have sinned and will cleanse them, then they shall be my people. And I will be their God. God is going to do all of this. He does all of that Preparatory work for Israel. Interesting. 24, David, my servant shall be king over them. It makes you all have one Shepherd and make. So also walk in my judgment and observe my statues and do them. Verse 25 and my servant where your father's wealth and they shall dwell there, they their children and their children's children forever and my servant David shall be their prince forever. I was reading through, I've been going through the Hebrew Old Testament and looking through the names of God having to do with the study. I'm doing on the names of God on Sunday night and will, we're about to do. We haven't quite kicked it off yet, but remind me if I don't do it, that it needs to be announced. We have that study so everyone knows about it.

so, cuz I forgot to this this last Sunday so I may have Impacted people. People can't come if they don't know. Did I? why I did a couple weeks back but I remember say anything about it on on Sunday but you know it's interesting was it

you think you said this? They was Benjamin Franklin. That the man who fails to plan is planning to fail.

Yeah, so good. Good thing about organization. If you don't get organized and everything is going to fall apart, maybe that's the Corollary.

The God here puts everything together, my David shall be their prince forever. So not just during the Messianic Kingdom But continuing for from that I get an idea which is it, there will be a Claus at the end of the Thousand Years. When everyone who is not born, again, will be released to oppose God and all the demons from the pit will be released to oppose. God once again and we will have the final battle and then we get to shuck everything into the Lake of Fire. That doesn't have a foundation to last into eternity and instead of those things will end in Eternal shame in eternal torment, in the Lake of Fire, including demons, unbelievers, death, and sin in any part of creation that is not transformed by God. How rich is it to do that verse 26? Moreover, I will make a covenant of peace with them and it shall be an Everlasting Covenant with then I will establish them and multiply them and I will set my sanctuary in their midst forever. So we're starting to get into what we've been studying. Most recently Remind me to establish multiply that will set my sanctuary in their midst forever. So Sanctuary. Interesting Lee, we cannot take that and take it to mean the place of his Shekinah Glory because that is the root meaning of Shekinah. It is sanctuary, isn't about. It is a dwelling place. First, 27. My Tabernacle also shall be with them. Indeed, I will be their God and they shall be my people. He says the Tabernacle is going to be brought back That is again my Dwelling Place. You doesn't say Temple here. My temp, my Tabernacle shall be with them. I will be there gone and they should be my people. But what is Tabernacle? It's dwelling place to the progression here. First 26, we have Sanctuary verse 27, we have Tabernacle A 28, the Nations will know that. I, the Lord sanctify is real When My Sanctuary is in their midst forever. So then it becomes clear that what he's talking about is the temple, and we have the temple that will be in the midst of Israel forever. But we're talkin about the Messianic Kingdom. So, the final fulfillment of whoever is in the New Jerusalem as it comes down from heaven, and that will be the same shoe area where the Shekinah Glory is forever, which Remember that the Shekinah Glory is we started out the service is over the temple and over the amount going. I'm an over the city of Jerusalem and then we have in the Eternal Kingdom. We have the Shekinah. Glory form of the New Jerusalem over planet Earth over the place, which is the spot of the Jews, the promised land will be given to them. So we got some points of conflict within our own party of family, shall we? Say our own say fairy in pastors and teachers and so forth in slightly different viewpoints. Some of them believed that the that the Jerusalem will actually come down from heaven and rest on Earth. There's others who do You will be over, or if there's some who believe that all of Israel will be living on planet Earth and all of the church will be in the New Jerusalem. Must be for except that, but one of the ideas that's out there is actually that

Will be a continuation of the Messianic kingdom in which the New Jerusalem. Just comes down on and takes the place of the Shekinah, Glory over the old Jerusalem on planet Earth. So, I haven't come across the reasoning for that yet. So I'm waiting to dig that up and get to the bottom of why they have those beliefs, but I can understand it in part from again, some of those things that are said in, in the last part of Revelation, Reds, talking about people bringing results of their harvests and so forth. And that's after the New Jerusalem comes down. So, there are some individuals, her kind of tying it together, and in which case the Messianic Kingdom goes into an eternal State. Biggest problem. I have with that really is, it doesn't give us the point for a recreation and a destruction of all of sinful birth. I know that there's those people who say that, that happens when Christ. Set the Messianic Kingdom. But that doesn't add up either because we still have sin, you still have the impact of send. So in my mind, the categories aren't lining up correctly there. So that's a few logical reason as opposed to a Biblical exegetical reason for for my view, but that's my boss at the moment.

The terminology used there in the Greek has some similarity to where we get our word Adams from. So the very the very foundation will structure is going to burn with an intense heat which sounds like a great fission-fusion burning up in the entire universe. So that's how I've always taken it.

Well. Yeah, that's in Matt's after the millennial Kingdom yet.

Yeah doesn't doesn't to me either to me or say it's going to be a fresh ex nihilo creation. The only thing to give me pause is that the Lake of Fire is not going to disappear. It's not going to be burned up and disappear. So does that mean that we're going to leave a piece of creation here playing this out and start again or can God redeem what's left? And just shoot all that out of it, you know? I don't know. I don't have a Haven't had the need to study that are come to a conclusion, yet sofa stuff, I think about will pick it up on next week. We're going to be looking at the Messianic government. And what will you be looking at is just finishing up for us, how those people in the Miss you and the kingdom who are Gentiles are seeing Israel. And God based on everything that's gone before and lose number scriptures, we want to look at the kind of help us. Seize it, see things from that perspective, and that will finish up chapter 37. And then we'll jump in the chapter 38 where we have seven oracle's that will begin to take a look at Southern Oracle. So we'll finish with the 13 promises, we had in the section, we just went through. And then, as we step into chapter, 38 will be dealing with the seven, oracles, and God's defense of restored, Israel sold that will be moving from one to another. So it's a pretty logical continuation from chapter 37 to chapter 38 for us. So, let's closing prayer through the father. Again, we thank you for this time. This place you prepared for us. We might come and study your word. You think you for the gifting of your word Lord, which allows us to be changed them to be transformed. And why should we care about these things? Well, I guess if we have to say it, Lord, because you told us to care about these things. It's like the Calvinists who I have predestination were true. They asked me, why do we evangelize? And they're told because God says to evangelize, well, that may be true, but the reality is, there is a beauty in, there is a one. And there is a Majesty, Anna Grace, that's Express. We tell people about you because you are everything to us and salvation cannot be headed, and it must be shared. So, too, with your word, Lord, we must study it. We must look at it more because it, glorifies you, and they're in Lord of the absolute joyous answer. Lord, that your glorified by this very hour, we thank you for this time. We pray, you be exalted go before us Lord, with all of the giftings of exhortation, those points of evangelism. Those people you bring Trail life. We haven't seen in awhile that you wanted to connect with somehow way that you can work out all of those for Special cases of high trials and difficulties. We know that you are more than adequate to equal the measure of the difficulty in the trial that we face. And so pray that we have the ability to rest in you Lord, even though we don't yet know the answer. We know that you hold the answer in your hand, we can trust you completely. So we think you Praise You In Christ name, amen.
