Chapter 28, Part 3 Preview: Few people really know who the ôbride of Christö (Messiahĺs bride) is. The vast majority believes her to be ôthe churchö, or their church, with only a tiny minority understanding that she is physical Israel. Chances are, you are among the vast majority who have been taught that the marriage supper is between ôChristö and His ôChurchöŚno questions asked. But could the ôbody of Christö marry the bride instead? Might you be part of the bridegroom? Would Messiah wake up with ôLeahö instead of ôRachelö? Here are the exact terms of the new marriage covenant, that was only summarized in the book of Hebrews! Given a second chance, Yehovah (God) will ôstill chooseö to marry ôIsraelö. The New Covenant chapter is no place to skimp on reading if you really want to know who the bride is!
People tend to read into Revelation 21 the belief that New Jerusalem is strictly for the kadishea (saints). Notice who John said the city is for:
Revelation 21:2-3 I saw the kadosh city, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven from YHVH, like a bride adorned for her husband [for the Marriage of the Lamb]. 3 I heard a loud voice from the sky say, ôLook, YHVHĺs tabernacle [dwelling place] is among humanity [Gr. anthropos]. He will live with them and theyĺll be His people, and YHVH will be with them, yes YHVH Himself will be with them.ö ŚThe Gabriel Bible
New Jerusalem is for ôhumanityö and ôthey will be His peopleö. You had better be grafted into Israel. Israel will not be grafted into ôthe churchö!
Romans 11:13-17 Iĺm speaking to those of you of other nations, since Iĺm an envoy to the nations, and I honor my ministry, 14 hoping that I can provoke some of my own countrymen to rivalry and Rescue some of them. 15 If their rejection results in reconciliation of the world, then what will their conversion be but the dead coming back to Life? 16 If the firstfruit is kadosh, then the rest are also. If the root is kadosh, the branches are also. 17 If some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive branch have been grafted in their place, and you are now sharing in the nourishment provided by the roots of the olive tree,
People who want to believe that the New Covenant is with the Church, rather than ôwith the house of Israel and with the house of Judahö, as Jeremiah 31 says, like to say that the covenant was implemented at Yeshua's (Jesusĺ) ôfirst comingö. However, the only Biblical reference to the ôMessenger of the covenantö is used in the context of the ôsecond comingö and Judgment Day!
Malachi 3:1-6 Iĺll send My messenger, and Heĺll prepare the way before Me, and the Sovereign, who youĺre looking for will suddenly come to His Temple, the MESSENGER OF THE COVENANT, who you desire. Heĺs coming, says Yehovah the ĹWarriorĺ King! 2 But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can Ĺsurviveĺ when He appears? He is like a refinerĺs fire, and like laundererĺs soap, 3 And Heĺll sit like a refiner and purifier of silver. Heĺll purify the descendants of Levi, and refine them like gold and silver, and theyĺll bring Yehovah offerings in morality. 4 Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasant to Yehovah, as in the old days, as in previous years. [Animal zeĺbakim (sacrifices) again, as in Zechariah 14:4, 21] 5 Iĺll come come to judge you. Iĺll be quick to witness against sorcerers and adulterers, and against perjurers and those who cheat wage earners out of their wages, and cheat widows and orphans, and those who deprive foreigners of their rights, and donĺt fear Me, says Yehovah the ĹWarriorĺ King. 6 Because I, Yehovah, donĺt change. Thatĺs why you descendants of Jacob havenĺt been destroyed.
Here is a final comment on the covenant, presenting evidence that the (marriage) covenant will be implemented after the Two Witnesses have finished their workŚwhen the beast is attacking ôthe people who know their Elohim (God)ö. [As is elaborated upon in The Time After Jacobĺs Trouble.]
Daniel 11:31-32 Armed forces will rise up, and theyĺll defile the Temple refuge, and put a stop to the daily burnt zebakim, and theyĺll set up an appalling detestable idol [KJV, abomination of desolation]. 32 With slick and corrupt talk he will corrupt the wicked who violate the covenant. But the people who know their Elohim will be strong and take action.
The prophetic Scriptures invariably portray Israel as the bride. Accordingly, if Israel is the Bride and the ôLambö is the husband, then wouldnĺt the ôBody of Christö be a part of the husband who is to marry Israel?
1 Corinthians 6:15 Donĺt you know that your bodies are members [parts] of the Messiah? ...
It is Scripturally evident that Elohim (God) and His Son share everything, including the Throne of David. Why wouldnĺt they ôshareö the Bride as well?
Revelation 5:9-10 They sang a new song: ôYou deserve to take the small book and to open its seals, because You were slain and have purchased us for YHVH with Your own blood, out of every tribe and language and people and nation, 10 and Youĺve made them kings and priests for YHVH, and theyĺll rule as kings on the earthö.
Can we with a clear conscience disregard the testimony of the BibleŚthat Israel is the Messiahĺs Bride? These overwhelming statements, contrary as usual to ôchurch doctrineö should make it difficult to rationalize that ôthe Churchö is the fulfillment of the ancient prophecies. If people would simply quit trying to misappropriate the things that belong to Israel, they might be free to understand the astonishing splendor of yet another mystery. The relationship of the resurrected kadishea to Yehovah will be on a far higher plane than Israelĺs earthly marriage to Yeshua (Jesus) that ceases upon death (til death do us part).
I once thought that the following verse indicated that the kadishea were to have no part in the Messiahĺs marriage, but I now see it as strictly a reference to literal marriages rather than the allegorical or analogical marriage that still marks a real time and event. Still, it is worth noting:
Matthew 22:30 In the resurrection of the dead, men donĺt take wives, nor are wives married to husbands, but they are like the messengers of YHVH in Heaven.
Israel broke its first or ôOldö marriage Covenant with Elohim, but Yehovah promised to make a ônewö and ôbetterö marriage covenant with the Church-oops, I mean ôwith the house of Israel and with the house of Judahö.
Hebrews 8:6-8 But now, Yeshua [Jesus] Messiah has been given a superior ministry since He is also the Mediator of a better covenant, one that was founded on better promises than the former. 7 If the first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need for a second one. 8 Finding fault with THEM He said, ôThe time is coming, says YHVH, when Iĺll enact a New marriage Covenant with the Ĺhouseholdĺ of Israel and with the Ĺhouseholdĺ of Judah.
Jeremiah 3:18-22 In those days the Ĺnationĺ of Judah will live with the Ĺnationĺ of Israel, and youĺll return together from the Land of the North, to the land that I gave to your ancestors as an inheritance. 19 I said how much I wanted to treat you like My children, and give you a desirable land, the most beautiful heritage of any nations. And Iĺve said, ôYouĺll call Me, my Father, and never turn away from Me.ö 20 Surely like when a treacherous wife leaves her Ĺhusbandĺ, thatĺs how youĺve been unfaithful with Me, Ĺnationĺ of Israel, says Yehovah. 21 A voice is heard on the barren heights, the crying and the pleading of the Israelites, because they have perverted of their ways, theyĺve forgotten Yehovah their Elohim. 22 Return, you apostate sons, and Iĺll heal your apostasy.ö ôWeĺre coming to You, because You are Yehovah our Elohim!ö
So letĺs see, we now have Brides, sons of Yehovah, a chaste virgin, heirs, body parts, a ôperfect manö, flock, sheepfold, husbandry, pillars, the temple, the light of the world, the salt of the earth, the body of the Messiah, and a menorah. Letĺs not forget that we are to graduate from ôservantsö to friends as well. All of these are attempts to help us visualize the role of the church; they are all the same thing arenĺt they? Maybe not! What if some of them only apply to the physical descendants of Israel, past and future. Letĺs consider the relevant Bible verses.
Despite Israelĺs treachery, Yehovah will ôstill chooseö to remarry Israel.
Isaiah 14:1 For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will still choose Israel, and settle them in their own land ....
We saw that the exact terms of the new marriage covenant are explained in Jeremiah 31! Jeremiah 30, in the very same context, leads right up to it. When the time is right, Yehovah will still choose to marry ôIsraelö. As you read thru it you could see that very little of this could possibly apply to the tribe of Judah returning to the land, as pioneers, in 1947!
Read about the Everlasting Covenant here:
Isaiah 61:7-11 Your shame will be replaced with a double inheritance, and instead of humiliation youĺll shout for joy over your territory. So in your land youĺll own twice as much as the other nations. Youĺll have everlasting joy. 8 Because I, Yehovah, love justice. I hate robbery and injustice. Iĺll certainly give you your compensation, and Iĺll make an everlasting covenant [i.e. The New Covenant] with you. 9 Your descendants will be reveale among the nations, and their descendants among the nations. Everyone who sees them will acknowledge that they are the descendants of the people who Yehovah has blessed.ö [Today, Israel is considered scum by the nations]. 10 Iĺll greatly rejoice in Yehovah, Iĺll be joyful in my Elohim, because He has clothed me with the clothing of deliverance, He has covered me with a robe of morality, like a bridegroom serving as a priest wearing a garland, and like a bride adorns herself with her jewels. 11 Like the soil pushing up sprouts, and like a garden enabling things that are sown in it to spring up, so the Sovereign Yehovah will cause morality and praise to spring up before all the nations.
Israel will again have Brides and Grooms who know and praise Yehovah in the House (Temple) of Yehovah:
Jeremiah 33:10-11 ôThis is what Yehovah says: ôOnce again there will be heard in this place, the very place that you say, ĹItĺs a waste, without people or animalsĺ, in the desolate cities of Judah, and the streets of Jerusalem, devoid of people and animals, 11 the sound of joy and gladness, the voices of the bridegroom and the bride, the voices of those who say, ĹGive thanks to Yehovah the ĹWarriorĺ King, because Yehovah is good and His loving kindness endures forever,ĺ and of those who bring zeĺbakim [sacrifices] of thanksgiving into Yehovahĺs Temple. Because Iĺll release the captives to return to the land as in the past, says Yehovah.
Hosea adds to the description of this time:
Hosea 3:4-5 The people of Israel will go many days without a king or prince, and without zeĺbakim [sacrifices], and without obelisks [?], and without ephods or household idols. 5 But after that the people of Israel will return, and be devoted to Yehovah their Elohim, and David their king. They will come trembling to Yehovah for His blessings in the LAST DAYS. ...
Revelation 7:4-7 Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000, sealed from every tribe of Israel: 5 12,000 from the tribe of Judah were sealed, 12,000 from the tribe of Reuben, 12,000 from the tribe of Gad, 6 12,000 from the tribe of Asher, 12,000 from the tribe of Naphtali, 12,000 from the tribe of Manasseh, 7 12,000 from the tribe of Simeon, 12,000 from the tribe of Levi, 12,000 from the tribe of Issachar,
Still, in Matthew 9, Yeshua refers to himself as the Bridegroom, while He refers to His Disciples as, in essence, ôgroomsmenö, not the Bride! Was He confused?
Matthew 9:15 Yeshua replied, ôThe groomsmenĺ [literally: sons] of the bridal Ĺpartyĺ [3567] canĺt fast as long as the bridegroom is with them. But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them, then theyĺll fast.ö
It seems that Paul, perhaps because of his vision of the third heaven, also knew about the enormous ôbuildingö, the New Jerusalem, Yehovahĺs dwelling place:
Ephestians 2:19-22 So you arenĺt foreigners without citizenship, rather, you are fellow citizens with the kadishea [saints and belong to the family of YHVH. 20 You are the finished structure built on the foundation of the envoys AND the prophets, and Yeshua Messiah has become the cornerstone of the building. 21 Both parts of the building are being assembled together because of Him, as it becomes a Temple dedicated to YHVH. 22 You are also being built into a dwelling place for YHVH by the spirit.
Romans 11:13-17 Iĺm speaking to those of you of other nations, since Iĺm an envoy to the nations, and I honor my ministry, 14 hoping that I can provoke some of my own countrymen to rivalry and Rescue some of them. 15 If their rejection results in reconciliation of the world, then what will their conversion be but the dead coming back to Life? 16 If the firstfruit is kadosh, then the rest are also. If the root is kadosh, the branches are also. 17 If some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive branch have been grafted in their place, and you are now sharing in the nourishment provided by the roots of the olive tree,
The following verses indicate that Yehovah ôkeeps His [marriage] covenantö ôwith those who love Him, and with those who keep His commandments ... ö in spite of the fact that most of Israel at this time had broken the covenant. This primary eternal marriage covenant was the essence of the covenant that that Yehovah made to Abraham.
Daniel 9:4 I prayed to Yehovah my Elohim, and confessed: ôO Yehovah, the great and awesome Elohim, who honors His covenant and loving kindness with those who love Him and preserve His Commandments.
2 Kings 17:15 They rejected His statutes, and the covenant that He made with their ancestors, and the warnings He gave them. They pursued idols, and became worthless. They imitated the nations around them, that Yehovah had commanded that they shouldnĺt imitate.
Isaiah 59:20-21 A Redeemer will come to Zion for those of the tribe of Jacob who turn from rebellion, says Yehovah. 21 As for Me, this is My covenant with them, says Yehovah. My Spirit that is on you, and My words that Iĺve put in your mouth, wonĺt depart from your mouth, or from the mouths of your descendants, or from the mouths of their descendantsĺ, says Yehovah, ôFrom today to forever.ö
Jeremiah 34:13 ôThis is what Yehovah, the Elohim of Israel says: I made a covenant with your ancestors on the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. ...
Jeremiah 50:4-5 ôIn those days, during that time,ö says Yehovah, ôthe people of Israel will return, as well as the people of Judah. Theyĺll come crying as they travel, and seeking Yehovah their Elohim. 5 Theyĺll ask the way to Zion, turning to face that direction. Theyĺll come and bind themselves to Yehovah in an everlasting covenant that will never be forgotten.
This awareness of Yehovahĺs covenant, and willingness to agree to its terms, is due to the message that they heard from the Two Witnesses! [The Two Witnessesĺ message to Israel, about a great reconciliation between Israel and her Yehovah, is covered in detail in Jubilee 2028 AD.]
Ezekiel 16:8 Then when I passed by you, and looked at you, and saw that you were old enough for love! I spread My robe over you, and covered your nakedness. I swore to you, and entered into a covenant with you, says the Sovereign Yehovah, and you became Mine.
Ezekiel 37:23-28... theyĺll be My people, and Iĺll be their Elohim.ö 24 My servant David will be their king, and all of them will have one shepherd. Theyĺll Ĺlive byĺ My ordinances, and carefully obey My statutes. 25 Theyĺll live in the land that I gave to My servant Jacob, where their ancestors lived. They and their children and their grandchildren, forever, and My servant David will be their leader forever, for eternity. [Both 05704: ôas longö as ôtimeö & 05956: for eternity]. 26 Iĺll make a [New] Covenant of peace with them. It will be an Everlasting Covenant with them, and Iĺll establish them, and increase their numbers, and set My Kadosh Place among them forever. 27 My home [tabernacle] will also be with them. Iĺll be their Elohim, and theyĺll be My people. 28 The nations will know that I, Yehovah, make Israel kadosh, when My Kadosh Place is among them forever.
This is really what the New Covenant, or marriage agreement is all about: it is about Israelĺs becoming faithful to our Elohim and His resuming the role of our faithful provider.
The so called ôOld Covenantö is really an addendum that was added to the ôperpetual covenantö or ôeverlasting covenantö that Yehovah made with Abraham! It was the Constitution of ancient Israel.
Galatians 3:8-19 YHVH knew beforehand that the nations would be made righteous by faith. He previously announced it to Abraham, as the Kadish Scriptures say, ôAll nations will be blessed thru you.ö 9 So those who are convicted of the truth are blessed with faithful Abraham. 10 Those who depend on obeying the Torah are under a curse, because it is written, ôWhoever doesnĺt practice everything written in the Torah is cursed.ö 11 It is apparent that no one becomes righteous before YHVH by Torah obedience alone, because it is written, ôThe just must live by faith.ö 12 Now the Torah isnĺt faith based, still, whoever acts on the things written in it will Live because of them. 13 But the Messiah has redeemed us from the curses specified in the Torah [Deuteronomy 11:28], by being cursed for us (because the Scriptures say, ôEveryone who is hung on a tree is cursed.ö) 14 This occurred so that the blessing of Abraham would be brought about for the other nations thru Yeshua Messiah, so that we could receive the promise of the spirit thru faith. 15 Friends, Iĺm speaking in human terms, when a human contract is made and signed in public, no one does away with it or changes anything in it. 16 Now a promise was made to Abraham and to his Descendant. He was not told to your descendantsŚmany of them, but to your one Descendant, that being the Messiah. 17 And Iĺll say this, the contract that was previously ôsignedö by YHVH, in the Messiah, does not invalidate a covenant that was given four hundred and thirty years previously, so as to nullify the promise. 18 If the inheritance Ĺcould be receivedĺ due to Torah observance, it would not have been a promise, but YHVH gave it to Abraham as a promise. 19 So why the Torah? It was to accompany [see root word] the promises in order to define violations, until the Descendant came, the One who the promise voluntarily involved. And the Torah was given by spirit Messengers thru a mediator.
Even the land will be ômarriedö. It will be extremely productive and literally bear much fruit. It will not be burdened under a constant rain of chemical sprays and cursed weather:
Isaiah 55:9-12 Just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts higher than your thoughts.
10 Just like rain and snow come falling from the sky, and not returning before watering the earth, and causing it to sprout and grow, providing seeds for the sower and food for the hungry, 11 thatĺs how My word is as it leaves My mouth, it wonĺt return to Me without an effect, but it will accomplish what I want, and it will prosper in whatever I sent it to do. 12 Youĺll leave [Babylon] with joy, and be led in [into Israel] in peace, the mountains and the hills will burst into shouts of joy before you, and all of the trees in the land will clap their hands.
Isaiah 62:4-5 Youĺll never again be called ôForsakenö, nor will your land be called ôDesolateö again, instead, youĺll be called ôHephzibahö [Literally, ôMy delight is in herö], and your land ôBeulahö [Literally, to marry], because Yehovah delights in you, and your land will be married to Him. [This is a tie in to the Jubilee and land Sabbaths.] 5 Just like a young man marrying a virgin, your sons will marry you [the land of Israel], and like a bridegroom rejoicing over his bride, thatĺs how your Elohim will rejoice over you.
Keep in mind that during the millennium all the kadishea from every past age will be citizens of the Kingdom of Yehovah. This is what Yeshua indicated in Matthew:
Matthew 8:11 I am certain that many will come from the east and from the west and sit down with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the Kingdom of the Heavens,
In the next breath He indicated that many Israelites would not inherit the Kingdom:
Matthew 8:12 but the native descendants of the Kingdom will be thrown into outer darkness. There will be wailing and grinding of teeth.ö
In addition to the kadishea, there will be a great number of people in the Kingdom by surprise!
John 10:16 I have other sheep that arenĺt in this sheepfold. I must bring them also. They will also hear My voice and together theyĺll all become one flock with one Shepherd.
Here is a quote from Chapter 5, Are the ôUnsavedö Lost?. Notice what these righteous say to Yeshua. Truly none of them have ever read Matthew 25:
ôThe following passage describes Judgment DayŚThe Last Day. This assessment is not a parable; rather, this is an unambiguous pronouncement!
Matthew 25:31-40 When the Human Son comes in His splendor, and all His spirit messengers with Him, Heĺll sit on the throne of His splendor. 32 All the nations will be gathered in front of Him, and Heĺll separate them from each other, just like a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 Heĺll put the sheep on His right and the goats on His left. 34 Then the King will say to those on His right, ĹCome, you who are blessed by My Father! Inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 I was hungry and you gave Me some food, I was thirsty and you gave Me a drink, I was a stranger and you took Me home. 36 I needed clothes and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you cared for Me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.ĺ 37 And the righteous will ask Him, ĹMaster, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You something to drink? 38 When did we see that You were a stranger and take You home, or needing clothes and give You some? 39 When did we see You sick or in prison and come to Youĺ? 40 The King will reply, ĹI can say with certainty that whenever you did anything for one of My brothers, who others thought of as insignificant, you did it for Me.ĺ
It is particularly important that you notice that these ôrighteousö are totally oblivious as to why they are being rewarded! They truly donĺt understand why they are being offered eternal life! They had certainly not understood Yehovahĺs plan for humanity! Yet this is a very positive judgment. It is an invitation to pre-qualified (i.e. not wicked) people to become ôlike the Messengersö (angels). I seriously doubt that anyone will decline the offer when Yehovah says to them: ôEnter into the joy of your Masterö. However this is a very brief account. I fully expect that these people, when Yehovah has their totally undivided attention, will be exceedingly willing to pledge their allegiance to Yeshua, their Life Giver, as they are forgiven of their sins. These compassionate ôgentilesö will be EXCUSED and will be welcomed into the Kingdom!
The Assembly of Yehovah will become the Kingdom of Yehovah. The wise will be given splendor and will shine like the stars forevermore. The earthĺs greatest age will pale into significance by comparison. Everyone who persecuted the Assembly thru the past ages will bow down to them. Yeshua will compensate everyone according to his works. At this time, the faithful will receive the highest honor possibleŚbecoming Kings and Priests in the Everlasting Kingdom.
I think itĺs more likely that the wedding still hasnĺt taken place in Revelation 21:9:
Revelation 21:9 One of the seven messengers who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues [Gr. catastrophes] came to me and said, ôCome, Iĺll show you the bride, the Lambĺs wife.ö
It appears to me that the whore of Babylon will claim to be the ôvirgin fianceeö of the Lamb, i.e ôthe Bride of Christö. Contrast the next two verses and notice Isaiahĺs sarcasm:
Revelation 17:18 The woman who you saw Ĺrepresentsĺ the Ĺexaltedĺ city that holds dominion over the kings of the earth.ö
Isaiah 47:1-3 Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin maiden of Babylon, sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans, because youĺll no longer be called tender and delicate. 2 Take the millstones, and grind meal, remove your veil, strip off of the train, uncover your leg, pass thru the rivers. 3 Your nakedness will be exposed, yes, your shame will be seen. Iĺll take vengeance, and wonĺt intervene for anyone.
Jeremiah 2:2-3 ôGo, and herald within the hearing of Jerusalem, ĹThis is what Yehovah says: I remember the kindness of your youth, your love as a bride, how you followed Me in the wilderness, into a barren land. 3 Israel was dedicated to Yehovah, the firstfruits of His harvest, anyone who devoured him became guilty, and disaster struck them,ĺö says Yehovah.
The Torah was a prenuptial agreement.
Deuteronomy 6:1-6 These are the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances, that Yehovah your Elohim commanded me to teach you, so that you would do them in the land you're about to enter and occupy. 2 As long as you fear Yehovah your Elohim, enough to obey all of His statutes and His Commandments that Iĺm giving you, your children and grandchildren as long as you live, your days will be prolonged. 3 So listen Israel, and be obedient, so that things will go well for you, and so that your numbers can increase greatly, as Yehovah, the Elohim of your ancestors has promised you, in a land flowing with milk and honey. 4 Listen, Israel, Yehovah is our Elohim, Yehovah is One! [Enlarged Ayin] [Enlarged Dalet] 5 You must love Yehovah your Elohim with all your mind, with all your being, and with all your strength. 6 These words that Iĺm commanding you today must be kept in mind!
Exodus 19 records the ceremony. In unison, the entire Assembly agreed to the terms of the Marriage with an ôI doö.
Exodus 19:8 All the people answered together, ôEverything that Yehovah has spoken weĺll doö. Moses reported the words of the people to Yehovah.
But trouble came way too quickly. The marriage was over. The Scriptures record the dismal account:
Zechariah 7:11-12 But they refused to pay attention and turned a stubborn shoulder and covered their ears so they wouldnĺt hear. 12 They made their Ĺattitudesĺ as hard as flint, so as not to hear the Torah and the words that Yehovah the ĹWarriorĺ King had sent by His spirit thru the former prophets. So great wrath came from Yehovah the ĹWarriorĺ King.
Believe it or not, Joel is talking about the Messiahĺs bride. She is the same adulterous bride that the entire 16th chapter of Ezekiel is devoted to. But here is how the bride chapter ends:
Ezekiel 16:59-60 This is what the Sovereign Yehovah says, ôIĺll cause what youĺve Ĺeffectedĺ. You Ĺtrashedĺ your oath in breaking your marriage vows [covenant]. 60 But Iĺll remember the marriage vow I made with you in the days of your youth [the ôOld Covenantö], and Iĺll [re]establish with you an everlasting [New] Covenant.
Harlot Israel is essentially Hoseaĺs bride, and here is how that bride story ends:
Hosea 2:14-15 But Iĺm going to allure her back. Iĺll bring her into the wilderness [Ezekiel 20:35], and speak tenderly to her there. 15 Iĺll give her back her vineyards beginning there, and the valley of Achor [trouble] as a doorway of hope. Sheĺll respond there, as in the days of her youth, just like when she came out of the land of Egypt.
The New Covenant, also based on the Torah, is destined to work. The faithful remnant will be considerably larger this time.
So, when was the ôchurchö established? It was established at the FIRST recorded PENTECOST at Mount Sinai.
Acts 7:38 He [Moses] is the one who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the Messenger who spoke to him and to our ancestors on Mount Sinai, and he is the one who received the words of life to give to us.
Attempting to call ôthe churchö the bride is an overt example of ôReplacement Theologyö! Ironically, some of the teachers who speak against replacement theology, actually teach major aspects of it. (Also See The New Covenant.)
Chapter 29 concerns who the Bridegroom is:

I've only shot at box speed and developed in DD-X. The combination gives a really fine grain for 1600, in my eyes, and has a very nice tonality. The true speed may be closer to 1200, but I never felt the need to shoot it any way but box.
An example, http://www.flickr.com/photos/segedi/...57625198332802
Bit hard to tell at that size, but I think it speaks to the sharpness you can get.

Track Day
|Track Day
|Kerry said 2003-03-17 05:29
Hi Scottie et al
Finally plucked up the motivation and booked myself for the next track day at Pukekohe on 5 April.
Got any good advice? Do they sell petrol there? What do they do if it rains? How "hard out" is it? Is there any one-on-one type tuition offered? (I´d love to improve my cornering skills mainly). Do I need to get the speed/rev limiter removed beforehand?
Any tips greatly valued.

We are already in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Mexico</st1:place></st1:country-region> and I now have time to start a trip report. Im also going to try and keep this and a blog going. That is Chris on the right.
But first, starting from the beginning, whats the plan? The plan is for two guys to head south right after Christmas, 2008 on a three month, or so, ride through <st1:place w:st="on">Latin America</st1:place>. We will travel through <st1:country-region w:st="on">Mexico</st1:country-region>, Central America and fly over the Darien Gap in to <st1:place w:st="on">South America</st1:place>. In South America, we will continue south to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Ushuaia</st1:City>, <st1:country-region w:st="on">Argentina</st1:country-region></st1:place>. From there we will turn north and go the 1900 miles up the east coast to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Buenos Aires</st1:City>, <st1:country-region w:st="on">Argentina</st1:country-region></st1:place>. In <st1:City w:st="on">Buenos Aires</st1:City>, I will take a little non-moto vacation with my wife, before flying the motorcycles and us home in time for an early spring in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Michigan</st1:State></st1:place>. All in, the trip should be about 15,000 miles. Along the way, we plan to visit the great sights, such as, <st1:country-region w:st="on">Peru</st1:country-region>s <st1:City w:st="on">Machu Picchu</st1:City> ruins, the Bolivian Salt Flats and <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Argentina</st1:place></st1:country-region>s Lakes District. We will also travel some legendary roads like the Carretera Austral (Southern Highway) in <st1:country-region w:st="on">Chile</st1:country-region> and the famous Ruta 40 through <st1:country-region w:st="on">Argentina</st1:country-region>s <st1:place w:st="on">Patagonia</st1:place> region where BMW filmed their 2004 GS New Model Introduction publicity shots. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
My friend Chris and I have identical 2007 R1200GSAs. It wasnt planned for us to look like twins rolling down the highway. We had mutual friends but didnt even know each other when we separately purchased our motorcycles from John Horner at BMW Motorcycles of Southeast Michigan. For my preferences, the GS Adventure comes almost complete for these types of journeys. Its a little heavy (subtle sarcasm) and tall but makes a decent compromise between on and off road handling for long distance traveling. I may have wished for a thumper after having to pick the pig up in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Bolivia</st1:place></st1:country-region>, but for now its great for knocking down miles. The Adventure and standard GS come with adequate off road protection. The exception is the need to add a little more protection to the headlight, radiator and cylinder heads. The latter got more protection from Adventure Designs well thought out Engine Guard Extension bars. Additional lights, front and rear, were added to help others see us.
<o:p>http://h-jay.smugmug.com/photos/438638859_aakZa-S.jpg </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Packing was another time consuming logistical challenge. The strategy is to get everything in two lockable side cases and a tank bag. The rear top case will stay mostly empty so that the tank bag can get locked up during restaurant stops in sketchy areas. Here is the obigatory stuff spread out photo.
<o:p> </o:p>
Before we left town we had a bit of a fun displaying our motos during a open house Christmas party hosted by John Horner at BMW Motorcycles of Southeast Michigan. I was amazed by the interest and the number of people that already knew about the trip.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
We got out of <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Michigan</st1:place></st1:State> on the Saturday after Christmas. We could not have asked for a better after Christmas present .50 degree weather. The snow was still piled high on the side of the road but we had a clear path out of <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Michigan</st1:place></st1:State>. After getting a nice send off from my family I cautiously rode an hour in thick fog to meet up with Chris. The big surprise for me was finding that 3 of our friends got up early Saturday and drove 40 miles to give Chris and I a send off. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
We had 2 hard days riding to beat the bad weather. End of day 2 has us in <st1:City w:st="on">Covington</st1:City> <st1:State w:st="on">LA</st1:State> somewhere between <st1:City w:st="on">Baton Rouge</st1:City> and <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">New Orleans</st1:place></st1:City>. We had been riding the last 4-5 hours in the rain and as dark ascended the rain picked up. Wanting to be around to see <st1:place w:st="on">South America</st1:place> we decide its probably time to stop for the night. The next day we headed off to <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Houston</st1:place></st1:City>. I have family to visit and dragged Chris along.
More later...
The best way to pass the Darien is the Copa flight from Panama city to Medellin then head down through the Zona Cafetera to Mikes place in Cali.
Feel free to get in touch as you get closer to Colombia.

Have a fantastic trip! I'm toying with the idea of working my way down to Panama and will be reading your blog with great interest. Thanks for posting your adventure and I wish you the best of luck.
That by far is the coolest plate Ive ever seen. I actually tried getting it for my KTM back when I lived in Michigan.
I've been to that shop many times. I liked them way more than the guys in Sterling heights.
You are about to embark on a big trip! Take care! It will change your life.
Best wishes for a safe journey, and looking forward to reading about your great adventure :thumb
Subscribed! Looking forward to this one! Don't spare any details and don't go through Mexico too quickly.....I'm planning at trip to Mexico this Spring and want to hear all about it. Be safe.
I'm already jealous!! Have a great trip...looking forward to going along with you guys!!:ricky :ricky :ricky Keep the pictures comin'!!! :thumb
Roboter, Yeah I like the plate. I also have a lot of time for John Horner. He is a rider and participates in a lot of our club activities. He is also very fair minded dealer. He and his entire team are easy to work with.
sounds like an incredible journey. i grew up in michigan... now is the perfect time to go for a little ride down south!
Looking forward to your report.
All the best on your travels.:clap
A beautiful part of the world i haven't yet visited, hope to soon.
Keep the camera busy.
Look forward to your rr.:nod
Best wishes in you travels, i look forewarn in seeing the pictures
This is great!
I was in Southeast Michigan Christmas week. It was super cold except for the day you left. I would have had to trailer the bikes to KY!
Locked in. Envious as I can be.

Joy Gilfilen Declares for County ExecutivePermalink +
Mon, May 18, 2015, 11:17 pm // John Servais
Joy Gilfilen came out of nowhere and filed late Friday afternoon to run for county executive, challenging incumbent Jack Louws. She put up her own $1,538.65 to file for the position. On Monday, she resisted pressure to withdraw from the campaign. This evening she posted a statement on her facebook page. It says it all so nicely. Dena Louise deserves credit for selecting the core of her post - and I repeat that here.
Joy Gilfilen:
"You know what I am? I am a mom, a concerned parent. I am a business woman. I am a taxpayer and a citizen of this great county, part of a nation I have been proud to live in for a long time...and I have been far less proud the last while. And I have been proud to live here and work in this community for a very long time...until lately when I am a little less proud. And I am deeply concerned that my children's future is in a mess.
"So I have a responsibility. I have an obligation to stand up for what is Right Action. I am standing up for the true stakeholders of this community...the people of this community who care, deeply care about their legacy leave, not their pocketbooks. People who have invested lifetimes in conservation, good business practices, honorable ways of taking care of our community. I am standing up for the students who inherit our mess or our vision. I am standing up for those who are no longer listened to in the political machinery of competition.
"You see, I believe that our grandchildren need us to step up to the plate right now. They deserve a whole lot better than they have been getting from our Executive branch. And that is what I am running for.
"Today, I stand for decency in doing the communities business. What that will look like as a campaign platform, I will find out. This is not a game. This is real."
You can read her complete statement at her Facebook page. But you know to see her entire fb site you need to log in.
We look forward to hearing more from Joy. They mocked U.S. Senator Patty Murray when she first ran for office, and today the good old boys were trying to tell Joy she had no business running for county executive. Well, her post this evening seems an answer to them. We look forward to her campaign.

Ah ha! I bet "Jumpy and Grumpy" Jack Louws is mad already. He certainly got in Joy's face and was quite rude to her at a public meeting two weeks ago.
Really, Jack Louws significant act is ramming this boondoggle jail down our throats and the County Council meekly went along with it. It was only after public outrage that the Council started thinking about some of the problems.
A vote for Jack is a vote for waste of public money and further problems with too-high incarceration rates.
A vote for Joy is a vote for sanity in the County and restorative community.
Joy Gilfilen // Wed, May 20, 2015, 6:27 am
Thank you for the article, I did not expect my words to be published, but I am good with that. And, I am delighted at the opportunity to run for office. It is an honor actually to stand up for Right Action today.
And I wish to correct the idea that the pressure to stand down came from any particular sector. It did come, but it came from a source that was concerned and thinking on a whole different level than I had thought, frankly. So it was appreciated that I got insights into other ways of seeing things. It was surprising however. And it is a new experience getting what I would call "very strong" guidance from so many different people who have differing opinions and worldviews. So, while I did receive encouragement to withdraw from the race, I would not really "blame" it on the "good old boys". I find those are divisive words simply because they mean so many different things to people that may or may not be accurate, or current. There are different types of "good old boys", and from my history working across the county, I imagine some will want me to run, and some may not.
At the same time, it has been interesting how many times I have been told to "stand down" in the past five years. It happened with the Port project, with the jail project and now with running for elections. Why is standing up for the people something worthy of that kind of resistance? I think having discussions is necessary for freedom to prevail.
Joy Gilfilen // Wed, May 20, 2015, 6:45 am
I have learned that some factions truly do not want to engage the public in any debate at all about "the regional jail project" as it was recently called. I think that is absurd to not talk to the people who have to pay the bills. Here is why:
1) Some of those taxes will run in perpetuity for generations - which is a huge debt liability for our grandchildren.
2) This is not only the single largest capital project in Whatcom County's history, it will have a massive overhead and operating cost that will only expand as costs of gas and housing go up - and retirement expands for increased staffing.
3) Most people have not realized that this is also the biggest expanse of a regulatory bureaucracy - and it is being planned without transparency and without an open discussion about those implications on the people, on jurisdictions, on opportunity costs.
4) This has been done without a taxpayers Needs Assessment and SWOT analysis, and no market analysis of solid community alternatives that would allow the people to downsize the jail the Executive Branch wants to build.
5) This purchase is huge, and the overhead will be ongoing and expanding operating costs. In this case, if markets shift, then it could be disastrous for the taxpayers and eventually could bankrupt the citizens.
Frankly, these things have all kinds of implications to civic governance, to business people and taxpayers. Why wouldn't the taxpayers need to know and discuss the ramifications? While it might be technically "outside the scope of planning to build a jail" it seems to be within the scope of public safety for the taxpayes. This should be a raging conversation in my opinion. It is simply illogical not to talk with the people about it in transparency and with solid public debate, so the people can bring their best solutions to the table, and so that the Councils have te best choices, and the people are fully informed.

Jules Dassin's 1964 "Topkapi" is one of two top-notch heist movies the American-French expatriate and blacklist victim made, and it's a real departure from his other classic, 1955's "Rififi," with its gray Parisian skies and doom-ridden tale of a jewel robbery gone wrong.

Recommended dining

- Crime
- Theft
- Gang Activity
See more topics »
The cast is topped by Dassin's famous wife, Greek actress Melina Mercouri, and she's a bit much as the glamorous gang boss Elizabeth Lipp - lewd and winking, with an accent that sounds like an over-amplified balalaika. But her cohorts are an amazing, amusing lot.
Maximilian Schell is her suave partner in crime, and Robert Morley is a portly, epicene toy inventor. (Is Morley ever anything but portly and epicene?) Akim Tamiroff is an alarmingly drunken and incoherent cook who mistakenly believes the gang are Russian spies. (Shades of the blacklist!) Best of all, Peter Ustinov, in his second Oscar-winning turn, is Arthur Simpson, the slovenly and amoral con artist recruited by the gang as a pigeon/decoy.
If the actors, even Mercouri, and scenery are fun to watch, the complex theft of a Turkish museum's bejeweled dagger, like the silent half-hour burglary in "Rififi," is another gem of logistics and suspense - though much more improbable. Back in 1965, "Topkapi" is one movie I saw over and over. If you like heists and holidays, it's almost foolproof entertainment.

inconsolate in English
translation and definition "inconsolate", Dictionary English-English online
Definition and similar words in English:
|CLINICAL PRACTICE Update Treating infants' colic Alex L. Rogovik, PHD, MD Ran D. Goldman, MD ABSTRACT QUESTION Young parents often visit my office because their infants are crying inconsolably.
|He sniffed it out, He was totally inconsolable
|Inconsolable, footsore, and remorseful, Concho returned to the camp and furnace, three miles across the rocky ridge.
|I think this can best be described as formless screaming: there were no words, as far as I could determine, and to a lay person, at least, the Complainant cried inconsolably, like an infant.
|I'm inconsolable.
|But Breedlove was inconsolable, and he finally painted this sign in bright yellow on his trunk lid and on both doors:
|I' m inconsolable!Uh- oh
|We got official bilingualism and multiculturalism, gave persons with disabilities protected status in human rights codes, entered into serious dialogue with aboriginal people, welcomed waves of non-white immigrants, abolished the matrimonial property regimes that for centuries had kept wives on an economic continuum that ranged from invisible to inconsolable, and watched women ponder competing visions of security as they made the transition to a world with options.
|Eric was inconsolable, desperate with grief because he had made the thing Blyth had used to destroy our beloved pets.

So last night I decided to give DoTA 2 another shot. I had played maybe 2 games since beta and didn't like it. I felt like it was exceptionally unbalanced. Well, without flaming me.... I still feel that way. I know a big part is that I don't know the Heroes. I was flamed harder in my 5-6 games of dota2 last night than in all of my 5000 games of LOL combined. I know the mechanics. Last hits. I know the 'unique' mechanics, like denying your enemy the kills although I'll admit I'm not the best at that.
However I noticed in every game a few things:
The hero that got first blood, snowballed and won every game.
People say the game is balanced, but the storm guy... sheesh. One of the games, his entire team left except him. so it was 1v5. I figured, oh this is going to be fast and easy. Wrong. He dove in 1v5 against us and crushed us. He ended up goign 119-2-0. We would use every ounce of CC we had and it did nothing. he would get away with full HP and all 5 of us would be dead.
Also I noticed the community is worse than any other game I have ever played.... including WoW and Minecraft... every other word was 'F this' and 'you stupid N'... I felt like I was in the 1800's with the way the N word flew around.
I also noticed that ranged chapions dominated every game.
Now, I expect the same as League of Legends. The idiots are the low ranked people. As you hit higher levels they mature. I could be wrong.
So I guess I'm in need of some help. One of the things that confused me.... I thought if you were an agility champ, agility increased your damage... same for strength and Intelligence... If so... wtf is the 'damage' stat on everything? Why would you get 'damage' if your personal stat does the exact same thing and gives you added bonuses like health or whatever...?
Help a brutha out!!! Suggestions for some champs to try to not be completely stomped every game so I can get to a point where I enjoy it? After playing League of Legends for 5 years, I would like a change of pace.

To me that looks like a "dancer" on a pole.
I love the yarn man with the heart!
Very cute, I've always wondered how prevalent swinging was in this area. I imagine it's more Eyes Wide Shut-style parties more than the local Applebee's after party crew.

MAO-B Inhibitors for Parkinson's Disease
|Generic Name
|Brand Name
|Eldepryl, Zelapar
How It Works
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) prolong the effects of dopamine in the brain by preventing its breakdown. They also may prevent the removal of dopamine between nerve endings and enhance release of dopamine from nerve cells. Rasagiline and selegiline are selective monoamine oxidase (MAO-B) inhibitors.
Why It Is Used
MAO-B inhibitors may be used in the early stages of Parkinson's disease to treat very mild symptoms (such as resting tremor) and delay the need for levodopa.
In people with advanced Parkinson's disease who are taking levodopa, rasagiline or selegiline may be added to levodopa treatment to reduce motor fluctuations, increase the time of effect of the levodopa, and decrease the amount of levodopa needed to control symptoms.
How Well It Works
In the early stages of Parkinson's disease MAO-B inhibitors may improve symptoms and can delay the need for levodopa. But the benefits are considered modest.1
MAO-B inhibitors are helpful to many people who have Parkinson's disease. Treatment with rasagiline or selegiline can:2
- Decrease "off" time.
- Reduce the amount of levodopa you need to take.
- Improve motor function and the ability to do daily activities as measured by a standard Parkinson's disease test.
Side Effects
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
- Usually the benefits of the medicine are more important than any minor side effects.
- Side effects may go away after you take the medicine for a while.
- If side effects still bother you and you wonder if you should keep taking the medicine, call your doctor. He or she may be able to lower your dose or change your medicine. Do not suddenly quit taking your medicine unless your doctor tells you to.
Call911or other emergency services right away if you have:
- Trouble breathing.
- Swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
- Signs of dangerously high blood pressure, such as:
Call your doctor if you have:
- Hives.
- Confusion, hallucinations, or mood or mental changes.
- Uncontrollable movements, such as twitching or repetitive movements of the tongue, lips, face, arms, or legs.
Common side effects of this medicine include:
- Belly pain or heartburn.
- Dizziness or lightheadedness.
- Dry mouth.
- Muscle or joint pain or stiffness.
- Nausea and vomiting (mild).
- Trouble sleeping.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
Taking medicine
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

I am trying to hardcode this plugin
directly into my theme rather than having it in there as a plugin. What I have done so far is include the shortcodes-ultimate.php file in my functions.php file. The shortcodes and the place for the button shows up but the image is missing and most of the plugin doesn't work. There is a function called su_plugin_url and I have been messing with that thinking that it needs to be changes in order for the entire plugin to work but I can't figure it out. Does anyone want to give it a shot?
Yes, it will work fine as a plugin but I want to hard code it for a specific reason.
