INDIVIDUALS VS THE MAJORITY

21) JOSEPH

- But Joseph can’t control himself any longer!

- He begins to weep loudly!

- And he tells his brothers the truth!

- And that what happened was according to God’s will!

- And he tells them to go back to their father and tell him about Joseph!

- But their father doesn’t believe them!

- Only when he sees all the gifts from Joseph!

- Then he wants to go to Egypt and see him before his death!
 
22) JOSEPH

- All the family of Jacob goes to Egypt!

- All the people were in total 70!

- Joseph organized everything and presented his family to pharaoh!

- Of course, he was used to organizing everything!

- He was in charged of Egypt thanks to God!

- He was the second most important character in Egypt!
 
23) JOSEPH

- He introduces his family to Pharaoh!

- And Pharaoh lets them settle in the land of Goshen with their livestock!

- Joseph sells grain against money!

- When people don’t have any more money, they give their livestock!

- Then Joseph buys the land and the people of Egypt for Pharaoh in exchange of grain!

- So they become slaves of Pharaoh!

- Finally Jacob dies when he is 147!

- As we can see, Joseph does a great job for Pharaoh!

- He reveals a precious man to him!

- God made a good choice with him!
 
24) JOSEPH

- Before dying, Jacob tells Joseph that Joseph’s two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh will share Jacob’s inheritance like his sons!

- Before dying, Jacob blesses Joseph’s sons!

- But Jacob keeps putting Ephraim the younger before Manasseh the firstborn!

- He does it against Joseph’s will!

- Interesting to see what is going to happen with both of them!
 
25) JOSEPH

- Then Jacob blesses his sons!

- Reuben the firstborn will not excel because he has gone up to Jacob’s bed!

- Simeon and levi are instruments of violence and slaughter weapons!

- Because of their anger they kill people!

- Their anger is cursed!

- Judah is a lion cub and the scepter will not depart from him until the coming of Shiloh!

- Thus we are told about the coming of Jesus!

- Zebulun will reside by the seashore!

- Issachar is a strong-boned donkey and will be submit to forced labor!

- Dan will judge his people!

- He will also be a serpent!

- Gad will fight back the marauder bands!

- Asher’s bread will be abundant and he will provide food for a king!

- Naphtali is a slender doe and speaks with elegance!

- God is with Joseph and Jacob gives him special blessings!

- Benjamin will keep on tearing like a wolf!

- Then Jacob asks to be buried in Canaan with his wife Sarah and Isaac and his wife Rebekah and Leah!

- Finally Jacob dies!

- Thus Jacob behaves as a prophet!

- Jacob’s first three sons are bad ones!

- They can’t control themselves!
 
Hi JLGJLG might I make a suggestion. Hardly anyone will read twenty replies made by the one who starts a thread as there is just way to much stuff to sort out and reply to. It would be better to just make your opening post as you explain what you want to bring to others and let others reply to that first before adding way to much more. That way we will know what it is you are presenting and will be able to discuss with you much better.

As per your first post, Adam was an individual who was given a command by God not to eat of the tree of good and evil. This was God's first command He made to one man. Now when God created Eve it became a majority of two until the generations grew in numbers. Starting with Eve being tempted and Adam, who forsook God's command, also fell to the temptation of lust in taking of the fruit of that tree as Satan working through that serpent enticed the two to eat and seeing that the lust of the eye brought sin into them, thus they fell away from fellowship with God becoming Spiritually dead within. Individuals vs majority carried over to Cain and Able as Able was faithful to God and His commands, where on the other hand Cain fell to the majority rule of evil killing his own brother out of jealousy and anger which now brought an individuals choice to either have a personal relationship with God and later His Son Christ Jesus or follow a majority rule socialistic society that denies the power of God and have no fear of God for they do not know Him.

God gives us choices as in a glorious eternal life with Him, or eternal torment in the lake of fire as we are either blessed or damned for the choices we make.

- Thanks for the suggestion but it's not my first thread!
- I try different experiments!
- People are free to answer or not!
- Sometimes they start reading your thread a long time after you started it!
- You are right Adam received the command from God!
- He chose his wife instead of God!
- He didn't want to lose her!
- On the contrary, Job refuses to follow his wife when she told him to curse God and die!
- Adam was perfect, Job was imperfect but he chose God!
- Job is a faithful servant of God!
- Adam was not!
- Free will!
- God told Cain to change of attitude but he didn't care like the majority of people!
- Yes, we have free will!
- About eternal torment in the lake of fire, that's another story!
 
26) JOSEPH

- Joseph has his father embalmed!

- Then he asks Pharaoh for the permission to go to Canaan to bury his father!

- So Jacob’s sons bury him in Canaan!

- After that, they all return to Egypt!

- But Joseph’s brothers are afraid of Joseph because of what they did to him when they were younger!

- So they tell Joseph that Jacob gave a command before his death to pardon the transgression of his brothers!

- But Joseph tells them not to be afraid!

- And he lived 110 years!

- Then Joseph is embalmed and put in a coffin in Egypt!
 
He chose his wife instead of God!
Yes, we do have free will and we can make bad choices at times, but Adam did not choose his wife as God took the rib from Adam and made him a help mate as she was called woman,

Gen 2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
Gen 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
Gen 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
Gen 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

- I understand why it is so difficult for people to understand such a unity between a man and a woman because it doesn’t exist anymore in our capitalistic society of greed and selfishness !

- In fact, everywhere the Bible speaks about unitity and man’s tradition turns it into something else and our poor human society is based on disunity so far away from God !

- Then how is it possible to understand the Bible and God’s spirit ?

- And here we are just at the beginning of the Bible !

- So think about the rest !

- I also understand why it is so difficult for people to understand the quality of God’s creation compared to man-made imitation when we look at our poor human society based on defects !

- I understand why it is so difficult for people to understand such a strong and simple relationship between man and woman as they were not ashamed of being naked !

- Man’s tradition has turned it into corruption as if they had the same mind as we have in a society based on sex and basic instincts !

- When we think of the different forms of love, we can only be lost because we live in a basic world !


https://www.elizabethrider.com/7-types-of-love-and-what-they-mean/

- According to Greek philosophy, here are the different kinds of love :

1) Eros – Romantic, Passionate love (of the body)

2) Philia – Affectionate, Friendly Love

3) Storge – Unconditional, Familial Love

4) Agape – Selfless, Universal Love

5) Ludus – Playful, Flirtatious Love

6) pragma – Commited, Long-Lasting Love

7) Philautia – Self Love
 
3) The devil creates doubt in Eve’s mind about God’s command not to eat from the fruit of the tree. He didn’t try with Adam because Adam had received the command directly from God. He knew Adam would have told him to go away!

If you look higher for the answers we can know why Adam and Eve were not ashamed before God.



Because they were unaware of being naked. Then they became aware, and were afraid.




Genesis 2:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

Genesis 3:10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?




And it is fearful to fall into the hands of God.

So through Christ coming to earth ( which the antichrist spirit denies and does not confess) we can abide in Christ, so when He appears the second time, we can have confidence this time and not be ashamed before Him.





Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.


Now we no longer recognise the earthly, ( house) we look for the testified house made without hands in the heavens, and desire to be clothed with that house ( the church which is Jesus Christ the chief corner stone. Ephesians 2:20.) and if we are clothed with Christ, we shall not be found naked ( as Adam was in his shame) for mortality to be transformed into eternal life, which is Jesus Christ.

That is why the final chapters of the bible tell us to be counselled of God and then to not hear man ( the many false prophets) and to buy the gold tried in the fire, which is the faith of Jesus Christ who came to baptize with fire, because that pure faith of His is the white raiment to cloth us so we do not have shame of nakedness appearing, which we only can recognise when eyesalve from Gods counsel gives us sight to see.



2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

Revelation 3:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
