Unless you've been living under the sand over the past several years.. you would have noticed that the rainbow has become a symbol of something that God did not purpose.
So let's get back to the real meaning of what the rainbow is really about.
Is it about individual rights and freedoms and the spectrum of individual expression?
Or this:
KJV:
Gen_9:11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
Gen_9:15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
What did God use to symbolise He would no longer flood the world to destroy all flesh? The rainbow.
This is what it means!
It's nothing at all to do with individual rights and freedoms.. the hippie movement.. flower power.. LGBTQ+ rights and freedoms.
Let's rescue the meaning of the rainbow from this agenda.
Now..
I know the LGBTQ+ rainbow doesn't have 7 colours like God's one. It has 6-- (which is significant in itself)
But that doesn't make it something completely different.. that makes it warped. So come on.. let's restore it's real meaning.
It is best to use the KJV in my opinion:
"I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: And I will remember my covenant, which
is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh."
Notice that it doesn't say rainbow per se. The bow in the Bible is a picture of Jesus here, in my opinion. We see Jesus depicted with a bow in Rev 6:2, for example. It is my understanding that clouds in the Bible are a picture of judgment. When we read in Genesis that the bow is in the cloud, in my opinion this is speaking about Jesus in the judgment. That would be when Jesus was on the cross. God sees Jesus on the cross and he remembers the covenant for living persons, that is for believers. The waters (a picture of God's word, scripture) will not condemn the true believers by becoming a flood of judgment against them.
It is very much like when a Moses made a pole with a serpent on it:
"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." The serpent was a picture of Jesus becoming sin on the cross so that believers could be saved.
