The children of Israel were instructed by GOD not to marry outside of their race, in order to keep their people pure from pollution, from corrupt DNA (kenites and fallen angels) and false religions, but more importantly to preserve the seedline from which Messiah would be born. This is not a racist thing, but the order of things, as was set by ALMIGHTY GOD, even back to Adam and Eve, with the birth of Seth. The promise was first made by the GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to Abraham. The Israelites were chosen because they were the heirs and people through which the seed of Messiah would come through the matrix. Salvation, through Jesus CHRIST, became open to all peoples, because GOD created every race and loves them all equally. It doesn't matter your race, for every race is truly equal. Our FATHER's blessings and cursings don't discriminate by race, gender or status. You follow GOD, through Jesus, and you'll be blessed; side with the devil and you'll receive the settlements from satan's bargains.
Genesis 17:3 "And Abram fell on his face: and GOD talked with him, saying,"
Genesis 17:4 "As for Me, behold, My covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations."
Genesis 17:5 "Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee."
Genesis 17:6 "And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee."
Genesis 17:7 "And I will establish My covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee."
Abraham would be the "father of many nations" because CHRIST would be born through his lineage, just like Eve was the mother of all living (Gen 3:2). Eve was not the literal, or physical, mother of all living flesh men and women, as the religious system promotes. That's just not reality, because there are more races than just one. In CHRIST, we are one, as the many membered body of CHRIST. We're all fearfully and wonderfully made, because marvellous are the works of GOD, for our souls knoweth right well, and we give Him all praise (Psa 139:14). The gentiles, as believers, are grafted into Christ by adoption to become the children of GOD (Rom 11:17-21). Today, many Christians, of Israelite stock, don't have a clue that they're Israelites, so they can be included in Romans 11:17. The elect is within all races (Rom 11:7) and they have the eyes to see and ears to hear. Now we're ready to get into the riddle of the end times.
Judges 14:5 "Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and, behold, a young lion roared against him."Judges 14:6 "And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand: but he told not his father or his mother what he had done."Judges 14:7 "And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well."Judges 14:8 "And after a time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion."Judges 14:9 "And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion."
Samson wanted a Philistine girl from Timnath as a wife, but it went against GOD's commandments, for it was unlawful for Israelites to marry outside of their people. Thus, Samson's parents were quite upset, knowing GOD's law, but not understanding that the LORD would utilize these events to begin delivering Israel out of the hands of the Philistines (Jdg 13:5; 14:4). On Samson's way to Timnath, a young lion came up against him. With the Spirit of the LORD upon him, Samson ripped up this lion with his bare hands. Even though he had courage and walked like a champ amongst the Philistines, Samson's strength was never from his hair, but from the Spirit of the LORD. Remember, GOD and just one man make the majority.
Upon returning from the trip, Samson saw a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion, scooped up the honey with his hands, and ate the honey. He also shared the honey with his parents, but didn't reveal where he found it. Even Samson didn't know the real answer to the riddle he would soon put forth. He was too busy enjoying honey from bees and women.
In Judges 14:5, Samson and his father and mother are symbolic of the Trinity - THE FATHER, SON and HOLY SPIRIT. Samson is a type of deliverer and the lion represents worldly, carnal power, like that of satan. Samson defeats the power of the lion like Christ, the Lion of Judah, defeated satan's power. The slaying of the lion occurs in a vineyard, which houses the winepress. The blood from the lion and the winepress represent the wrath of GOD upon the wicked and apostates who worship satan. You don't want to be part of the blood that flows from this winepress. Partaking from the wrong honey, the sweet lies from the traditions of men and the cup of devils, comes with the spiritual sting of death, much worse than the stings from honey bees.
Samson wanted a heathen bride, but GOD would stop the marriage. Unlike Samson, Jesus wants the true worshippers of GOD, as a virgin bride with oil, as in truth, and living in truth. The honey that came from the lion's carcass was physical, not spiritual, far from the hidden manna, which is Jesus, the Living WORD.
Judges 14:12 "And Samson said unto them, I will now put forth a riddle unto you: if ye can certainly declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty sheets and thirty change of garments:"Judges 14:13 "But if ye cannot declare it me, then shall ye give me thirty sheets and thirty change of garments. And they said unto him, Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it."Judges 14:14 "And he said unto them, Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could not in three days expound the riddle."
The number "7" represents spiritual completeness or perfection. The number "30" should remind you of Judas betraying CHRIST for thirty pieces of silver, which is the price of a slave, thus fulfilling prophecy in Zechariah. The "7" can also represent the closing of this dispensation, making it applicable to these end times, when antichrist, the dead lion or false messiah, will arrive to deceive the whole world.
It was at the wedding feast, made by Samson, that he put forth the riddle to the 30 thuggish Philistine men invited to the party. The men threatened the bride's life, and her entire family, over 30 shirts and garments, to get the answer. Samson gave the Philistine men seven days within the feast to answer the riddle. The antichrist, or "instead of Christ", satan, arrives at the sixth trump. Will you know the difference between the real bridegroom and the fake, between the Lion of Judah and the false lion, satan? Can you answer the riddle?
To be continued...
Peace in CHRIST JESUS,
