This Question of Timing Re: Egypt

It seems that Timing continues to arise in discussions. This time it has to do with taking the Hebrews out of Egypt.

Why did we have to have the plagues? Why did so many have to suffer? . . . .

These questions lead to one of a long time ago, “Why does the LORD just make us good?” I will not answer that one this time, but I will talk about Egypt and the Redemption Then and NOW!

Yes, I did say NOW! This time it is the World not just Egypt. Couple of things to remember:

1) על-פי שני עדים או על-פי שלשה-עדים יקום At the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established. (Deuteronomy 19:15 ….)
No an exact translation, but it is what I see in the TORAH of Moses and the Tanakh, how the LORD does things. Every thing that is TRUE is do or said two or more times.

2) The Destruction of the Earth, first time was NOAH. The second is N

ot Yet! But, We have been told about the coming event.

3) The Redemption of the Children of ISHRAEL from oppressors, Egypt was One, then second is Not YET! We have been told about the Coming Event!

Back to Egypt and why not immediate gratification?

Let us look first at the Promise.
Genesis 15:
13 And He said unto Abram: ‘Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
14 and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge; and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
15 But thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age. (Abraham lived 175 years, which is 100 more with GOD)
16 And in the fourth generation they shall come back hither; for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.’

So we can see that they are afflicted 400 years, so can not take them early. This is a sign that They Will Inherit the land, so part of a contract(Covenant). Okay, next contract part, In “Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse; ….” Afflicted and forced to serve –Judgement for that nation. And they will leave with great substance. You don’t think they would just give everything to their slaves if they were not WHIPPED into Submission, do you?(Plagues). And most importance, the GLORY OF GOD. This event will not only show the Children of Jacob the GOD Of Their Fathers Power, but that HE IS, and for them. The Nations of the World heard reports of Egypt and the GOD of their Slaves. In fact the World is still talking about the event 3500+ years after it was accomplished.

Therefore if it(The Redemption) was small, and could be easily explained away, as Pharaoh’s magicians attempted to do for each plague, the GLORY of GOD would not last even a year, let alone until the Next Redemption.

We have very hard heads and hearts of stone, with small memories. We need GREAT DEEDS to even see that something is happening, let alone to remember. All of these events take TIME to reach full impact. If something is to overwhelming then the people were weak and it was nothing of importance. It took time Pain, Acknowledgement, Return to previous thoughts, recovery time, next event.

The Other item, like Noah, this has been written about by many of THE LORDS Prophets. Or this writing I will say that when the time is up, what happens is not from this earth. There is no possibility that man could miss read this one as one of his own acts. The Living GOD of Ishrael will have HIS GLORY and HIS CHILDREN, all else will be smoke and ash.

Check out the “The Last Day”.

You must chose, but chose wisely. If you do not know enough to chose, seek, get help, but don’t wait. Time is all but gone. The Last Day is within the life times of those alive now.

My prayer is that The LORD grant you eyes that see, ears that hear and an understanding heart, then you return unto HIM soon!(Isaiah 6: 9 And He said: ‘Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.’)
