This is not the same thing.

Those of Israel having been called out (ekklesia) of Egypt where not the born again body of Christ, what we now know as "the church".

Much love!
SAME Assembly but the Difference was OT animal blood versus NT Messiahs BLOOD = Once & Done = It is Finished

Get that rid of religious mindset that man placed in your head and get into Scripture without ARGUING against IT.

Jesus answered and said to them, “You are [f]mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. 30For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels [g]of God in heaven. 31But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.” 33And when the multitudes heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.

They died in the wilderness due to their unbelief, with the exception of 2 adults, and all the children.

It's not equivalent.

Much love!

If that were so, it would not be musterion.

Much love!
You have me busting a gut here Brother.

Love you = it will sink in as you pray to the Lord and reject religious teaching that came from men.

But, if you cling to religion, it will never leave..................

The ASSEMBLY/Church/Congregation continued into the Promised Land under YOSHUA = which is the same name as YESHUA

Jesus answered and said to them, “You are [f]mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. 30For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels [g]of God in heaven. 31But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.” 33And when the multitudes heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.

Check out that word.

Just saying, "cling to religion", that is so empty!

Much love!

That doesn't mean that the Isrealites who were called out of Egypt were born again, "in Christ".

Much love!

SAME way to die today = thru unbelief = John 3:18

“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God

I'm showing you Scriptures, not other people's teachings.

Again, empty.

Much love!

i know what the Scriptures speak = i LOVE what the Scriptures Speak

Where did the Apostle Paul reveal his musterion from??? = Old Testament Scriptures

AGREE = religion is EMPTY
Why do you act as if I've said something I haven't, and then agree, as if we are saying the same thing? Does that seem right to you?

What I said was, telling me I'm "clinging to religion", and things like that is so far off target, it's empty, in Biblical language, vanity. It tells me you don't have a more sensible answer to me, and so I encourage you to take some times and give some real consideration to these things I'm saying.

Much love!

That's from the Scriptures, it's part of the Scriptures. And if you learn what this word that Paul uses means, it will answer this for you. Obviouly you do not accept it from me, so I encourage you to do the study, to learn this, and see for yourself.

Much love!

Not so, they don't say that. They say that God is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, but that doesn't change the fact that the "church in the wilderness" refers to the unbelieving nation who was "called out" (= ekklesia = church) called out from Egypt, but died in the wilderness due to unbelief.

True believers are contrasted against these, and we are told to not be like them.

Much love!

That's not what the word means.

Much love!
Oh Boy - here we go....

3466 mystḗrion (the root of the English term, "mystery") – mystery. In the Bible, a "mystery" (3466 /mystḗrion) is not something unknowable. Rather, it is what can only be known through revelation, i.e. because God reveals it.


More OT musterion

I will declare Your name to My brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.
You who fear the Lord, praise Him!
All you descendants of Jacob, glorify Him,
And fear Him, all you offspring of Israel!
Psalm 22

Moses handed off the Church/Assembly/Congregation to Joshua = who led them into the promised land.

Hebrews = Joshua was a foreshadow of Christ (musterion)

Brother marks that it is only Yeshua who Fulfilled the 7th Day of REST and who alone brings us to the Eternal Promised Land
