Now what of those Gentiles, saved to this timeframe who are righteous, who recognize the lamb, and have also been gathered to this region at the timeframe of this battle, what about those Canaanites amongst them, as it is written In Zechariah 14 there shall be no more Canaanite in the House of the Lord? What of those numbered as Righteous? Well, remember Rahab? Remember Esther? "Thy People shall be my people, and thy God shall be my God"....God is not without honor, and loves righteousness more than tradition. Note Isaiah 65 speaks of those who survive this battle of verses 1-12:
Isaiah 65:
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:
14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
15 And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:
Do you see it now?
All the confusion, all the mixed bloodlines, a grand effort to cause God to be a liar, to make his promise void, to ascribe a cursed name to his chosen...that name..."Caananite." But he knows his own, and he will deliver them, he will call them by another name, he will call them by a name no man knows, and he will choose them to be Levites and Priests. And it is this act which creates Jerusalem a Rejoicing from those who mourned her loss.
Isaiah 65:
16 That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold,
I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
Now in re-emphasis of that stated earlier...
Re: (3) The Correlation of Zecheriah 14 to Revelations 21/"NEW JERUSALEM"Posted by Steven Benjamin (Billy Steven Crider) on September 7, 2008, 3:07 am, in reply to "(2) The Correlation of Zecheriah 14 to Revelations 21/"NEW JERUSALEM""
...hold on, were getting there...you see, no sin, the whole world will not go up to Jerusalem, but of those who dont go, all will not be in violation...as they will have representatives going in thier behalf...note more closely:
Zecheriah 14:
17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto
Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
Emphasis here is on "OF ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE EARTH" keyword...on the first "OF".
Now if nothing that defiles can enter into this city, who are these representatives?
go back to Revelations 21:
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.
These representatives, are the saints who inherit the earth, who rule with the lamb.
And there will be those who are not saved, until after that kingdom is established. They will not be allowed into that city unclean.
