ISRAEL, The Woman In Revelation Chapter Twelve








Jesus told the woman that salvation was of the Jews, (Israelites).

Now, ask yourself, of all the different religions why none of them ever speak of the Lord's congregation? You know, the one where the Lord spoke to Moses saying, "Speak to the congregation of Israel; Exodus 12:3. As you can see the LORD called Israel His congregation, (church). Some people say the church started on Pentecost; Acts 2nd chapter, after Jesus' resurrection.

However, this is not so. The Jews (Israelites) were keeping the Feast of Weeks (Pentecost), as they had been doing since they were in the wilderness, after coming out of Egypt; Leviticus 23:15-21. Also, If you read very carefully, you will notice that there were only Jews (Israelites) at the feast spoken of in the second chapter of Acts.

Now turn to Acts 7:31-38. We read where Moses was in the church in the wilderness. So, now we can see that the churh did not start on Pentecost, right?
If Moses was in the church in the wilderness, Israel must be the church? If Israel is the church in the Old Testament, the who is the church in the New Testament? Where is the true church today? When Jesus came down out of the mountains after forty (40) days, He started teaching the people. "He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, (seventh day of the week), as His custom was".
Now here we see that the church in Luke 4:13-16, is still the same church that Moses was in, in the wilderness. What most people do not know is that the LORD was also in that church, and walked among the congregation of Israel.

ISRAEL, The Woman In Revelation Chapter Twelve

Part Three

When I last posted I was talking about the woman in the twelfth chapter of Revelation, which is the nation of Israel. Israel is the Lord’s Church and Jesus will become King of Israel as He was before (Luke 1:26-33). Jesus will sit on David’s throne and reign over the house of Jacob (Israel) for ever. For the Lord gave all His laws and statutes to Israel (Jews) and the promises, Romans 9:1-5.

God gave the job of teaching the rest of the sons of Adam about Him to the Israelites. Turn to Deuteronomy 7:6, Exodus 19:5-6. We see that the Lord told Israel: If you obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a peculiar treasure to Me, and be above all people, and you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests, an holy nation".

So, you see Israel is called to be the priest to the rest of the sons of Adam. He gave no other nation His commandments; He only spoke to Israel. Psalms 147:19-20, tells us that He showed His word and His statutes to Israel (Jacob) and that He had not done so with any other nation.

Turn to Amos 3:1-2, which tells us that the Lord told Israel the whole family that He brought up from the land of Egypt, saying, “You only have I known of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities, because I raised up your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites".

So, as you can see Israel was given the word that they would teach God’s Word to the rest of the families of the earth. No one ever pays attention to what Jesus told the woman at the well:

John 9:

22Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Who Is The Woman in Revelation 17?

Part three of the ISRAEL: The Woman In Revelation Chapter Twelve, will be forth coming, very shortly. However, I asked a question at the end of Part two, which no one has endeavored to answer. Therefore I pose the question again.


I ask once again: If this woman in Revelation 12, who christendom says is Mary,(but is actually the Lord’s Church), who is the woman in Revelation 17:1-6?


Surely someone can tell me this, one of you who says that the woman in Revelation 12 is Mary.
