If the first shall be last, and the last shall be first - what happens to those in the middle?
(aside)

don't they just cycle?
like, the last doesn't become first until all the first have first become last?

Seems like a theological question to me brother since there are three beasts in Revelation. Heh I think anything dealign with Revelation might fairly be a theological question, indeed whole sections of topics are devoted to it, are they not?

Nevertheless to answer your question I am assuming you mean the beast that the harlot with the name written on her head rides upon that was and is not?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Nope......


There are actually 2 beasts not 3.
1 from the SEA (with 7 heads) and 1 from the EARTH. (Rev 13)

The Beast (from the Sea) with 7 heads is explained....
Rev 17:9 Here is the mind that hath wisdome. The seuen heads, are seuen mountaines, whereon the woman sitteth: They are also seuen Kings.
Rev 17:10 Fiue are fallen, and one is, and another is not yet come (Geneva bible)

Each of the 7 heads (kingdoms) are the same Beast (of the Sea). It just surfaces at 7 different times in history. (5 are fallen, 1 is, and 1 is yet to come)

The head (Beast) during the time of John was the 6th.


Daniel (ch 7) mentions the Beasts that came in the Old Testament. (Greece, etc...)

There is an 8th Beast as well.
Rev 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, is euen the eight, and is one of the seuen

One Beast from the Sea (7 heads), and One from the Earth. All together there are 8 heads/beasts.

So my brethren..... Who is the Beast/Kingdom that "is" during the time of John???

Hint.... This 6th beast kingdom is pagan/heathen just like all the others before it and like the one THAT IS HERE NOW RULING THE EARTH!

The verses that I was supposed to include is 2 Kings 4:32-35. Please note how many times the child sneezes. It is God's fingerprint.

And I guess I'm supposed to ask a question again I guess.

I just saw that computers and google searches are allowable to find answers? That is cheating! Lol. I should make my questions hard. But instead I'll ask an easy one.

How often is the Lord's supper supposed to be celebrated and what is supposed to be eaten for the Lord's supper? I'll give you a hint. Christ and the disciples ate it during the last supper.

HEY! Nobody has answered my question yet! :(

And the answer is NOT unleavened bread either! :cool:

Well, they were celebrating passover. so They would have a meal (i suppose of the lamb that was sacrificed) and with bitter herbs.

if that was correct, I ask_ Who said “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" ?

Tabor

Hosea 5:1
1 Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.

Question:

Name the second son of Jacob/Israel born unto Bilhah the maidservant for Rachel for the great wrestlings with which Rachel wrestled her sister.
Naphtali
[h=3]Genesis 30
[SUP]7 [/SUP]And Rachel’s maid Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son. [SUP]8 [/SUP]Then Rachel said, “With great wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and indeed I have prevailed.” So she called his name Naphtali.[SUP][b][/SUP][/h]as for the other question...

JESUS! He came out of Nazareth

Matthew 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, “He shall be called a Nazarene.”

In the book of Numbers, how did the people of Israel cure themselves of snake bites?

Lamb was the main course that night. :) The Lord's supper was instituted in Exodus 12 and is a ONCE a year event to be practiced FOREVER and to never cease. Christ was following orders.

Correct indeed.

I am gonna take a stab at this one, not sure if it is correct, but I am assuming you mean this as the event when Moses made the brass serpent to ward off the fiery serpents.

Numbers 21:4-9
[SUP]4 [/SUP]And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.
[SUP]6 [/SUP]And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
[SUP]7 [/SUP]Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
[SUP]8 [/SUP]And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.


@illuminated ah I was thinking that was what you were meaning (btw there are 3 evil beasts if you count the dragon of Revelation 12.)

Micah prophesied the city in which Jesus would be born - Bethlehem

Micah 5:2
“But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
though you are small among the clans[a] of Judah,
out of you will come for me
one who will be ruler over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,
from ancient times.”

I was thinking more in the terms of underpants, more like what we wear today. This type of garment seems to be specified in Exodus 28:42-43.

42“Make linen undergarments as a covering for the body, reaching from the waist to the thigh. 43Aaron and his sons must wear them whenever they enter the tent of meeting or approach the altar to minister in the Holy Place, so that they will not incur guilt and die.
“This is to be a lasting ordinance for Aaron and his descendants."

Aaron and his sons is the answer I was looking for. The old KJV uses the term "breeches," which would distinguish these garments from any kind of tunic or "slip."
