The ULTIMATE TEST of ABRAHAM'S FAITH

 

In obedience Abram had journeyed into Canaan as Yahweh God had told him to do.

He and his wife Sarai, all their servants and all their possessions and with them also Lot, his brother's son. The childless Abram - 75 years of age when he set foot in Canaan, still thought Lot to be his heir.

 

A MEETING place of PRAISE - PRAYER AND PEACE:

Abram had built three altars to Yahweh God, (PRAISE, PRAYER, and PEACE).

All of these ALTARS represented a PLACE of MEETING - between Abram and his God - the ALTAR ITSELF representing prophetically, YAHSHUA MESSIAH HIMSELF as our ALTAR - the PLACE where we GO in PRAISE and PRAYER and where we find PEACE.

 

Hebrews 3:10 tells us that "We HAVE AN ALTAR ... :13 Let us then GO FORTH from ALL that would PREVENT us (OUT of the world and the worldliness - the sinfulness) to HIM OUTSIDE the CAMP at CALVARY ..."

 

OUR ALTAR is YAHSHUA HIMSELF:

No altars is ever needed anymore, for our ALTAR is YAHSHUA Himself ... and it is to HIM and THROUGH Him that we ENTER the HEAVENLY THRONEROOM to be with the Father (in prayer) - PRAISING Him, WORSHIPING Him, and to BE WITH Him.

 

After Abram and Lot had separated, Abram MOVED his tent and DWELT AMONG the TEREBINTH trees of MAMRE, at HEBRON.

 

Lot on the other hand, had moved his tent right next to Sodom and Gomorrah, and then he and his family DWELLED IN Sodom and/or Gomorrah.

 

The WAR of the KINGS:

The Babylonian kings made war on the Sodomite kings:

Whilst Lot was living in Sodom and/or Gomorrah, the kings AMRAPHEL (who was another name for NIMROD) of SHINAR,  ARIOCH of ELLASAR, CHEDORLAOMER of Elam and TIDAL of GOIIM (all of them from the 'state' of Babylonia) - made WAR on the SODOMITE KINGS BERA of SODOM, BIRSHA of GOMORRAH, SHINAB  of ADMAH, SHEMEBER of ZEBOIIM, and ZOAR, the KING of BELA and the SODOMITE kings  joined together as allies in the Valley of Siddim, which is now the Dead Sea of Salt. (Gen. 14:1-3)

 

They had served the Babylonian king CHEDORLAOMER for twelve years. But now they had REBELLED against him and in the FOURTEENTH YEAR Chedorlaomer  and the kings who were with him  ATTACKED and SUBDUED first the REPHAIM in ASHTEROTH-KARNAIM, the ZUZIM in HAM, and the EMIM in SHAVEH-KIRATHAIM. (Gen. 14:4-5).

 

They also attacked and subdued the HORITES in their Mount Seir as far as EL-PARAN, which is on the border of the wilderness - then turned back attacking and subduing ALL the COUNTRY of the AMALAKITES and also the AMORITES. (Gen. 14:6-7).

 

Then the five kings of Sodom, Gemorrah, Admah, Zeboiim and Bela went out together and joined battle with the Babylonian kings in the Valley of Siddim - a valley full of slime or bitumen pits and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, they were overthrown there and the remainder of the kings fled to the mountains. (Gen. 14:8-10).

 

The Babylonian kings took all the wealth of Sodom and Gomorrah and all the supply of provisions and departed. They ALSO TOOK LOT and his goods away with them. (Gen. 14:11-12).

 

IN FAITH ABRAM RESCUED LOT:

When the news was given Abram by one of the men that escaped, the Amorite Mamre, a brother of Eshcol and of Aner - the allies of Abram, Abram armed his 318 trained servants born in his own house and pursued the enemy as far as Dan. There he divided his forces AGAINST them by night and he and his servants attacked and routed them, and pursued them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus.

 

TO YAH (GOD) ALL THE HONOR:

Abram brought back all the goods and his kinsman Lot and Lot's possessions, the women and people that were taken - and had the people and goods restored back from where they/it was taken - making it clear that he had first CONSULTED with his GOD, the Most High, the Possessor and Maker of heaven and earth before he went on the rescue mission. (Gen. 14:13-24).

 

YAHWEH is Abram's Shield (his Protector):

And after all these things, Yahweh God said to Abram, "Fear not Abram, I am your Shield, your abundant compensation and your reward shall be exceedingly great." (Gen. 15:1b).

 

The childless Abram had now taken Eliezer (his stewart) as heir of his house, but Yahweh said to him, "This man shall NOT be your heir, but he who shall come from your own body shall be your heir." (Gen. 15:2-4). Then Yahweh said to Abram, to go outside and "...Look now toward the heavens and count the stars - if you are able to number them. ... So shall your descendants be." (Gen. 15:5).

 

ABRAM TRUSTED in GOD WHOLEHEARTEDLY:

The Bible tells us that Abram BELIEVED in, TRUSTED in, RELIED ON and REMAINED STEADFAST to Yahweh and Yahweh counted it to him as RIGHTEOUSNESS and RIGHT STANDING with Yah. (Gen. 15:6; Rom. 4:3, 18-22; Gal. 3:6; James 2:23).

 

It would eventually take 25 years from Abram had set foot in Canaan at age 75 till Isaac would be born (Abram 100 years old).

 

ISHMAEL'S HAND prophesied to BE AGAINST EVERY MAN:

Through the years that passed, with Abram still living in Mamre at the terebinth trees, Ishmael was born when Sarai took matters in her own hands to secure a son for Abram. Ishmael's hand was eventually against every man and every man's hand against him, living to the east and on the borders of all his kinsmen as it was prophesied by the Angel of Yah (Yahshua Himself) in Gen. 16:11-12.

 

LIVE HABITUALLY BEFORE Me Abram - Make Me your LIFESTYLE:

In Genesis 17 - Abram  99 years old (Ishmael 13 years of age) - Sarai 89 years old,  Yahweh told Abram to WALK and LIVE HABITUALLY BEFORE Him, and STRIVE to be PERFECT  - WHOLEHEARTED and COMPLETE.  He said to Abram, if he do that, HE WILL MAKE His COVENANT with Abram - a SOLEMN PLEDGE between Him and Abram. It was a pledge Yahweh made with ALL OF US - EVERY ONE WHO WOULD EVER COME to BELIEVE. Gen. 17:1 "I am the ALMIGHTY YAH; WALK and LIVE HABITUALLY BEFORE Me and be PERFECT (blameless, wholehearted and complete. :2 "And I WILL MAKE My COVENANT (SOLEMN PLEDGE) BETWEEN Me and you and will multiply you exceedingly.:4 "As for Me, behold, My COVENANT is with you ..."

 

ABRAM'S NAME CHANGED to ABRAHAM:

(From high exalted father to father of a multitude)

Gen 17:5 "... nor shall you name any longer be Abram (high, exalted father); but your name shall be Abraham (father of a multitude). :5 And I will make you exceedingly fruitful and I will make nations of you and kings will come from you."

 

SARAI'S NAME CHANGED to SARAH:

(From Sarai to SARAH - PRINCESS)

Gen. 17:15 "And Yah (God) said to Abraham, As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai; but SARAH [PRINCESS] her name shall be. :16 And I will BLESS her and give you a SON ALSO by her. YES, I WILL BLESS her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall come from her."

 

SODOM AND GOMORRAH DESTROYED:

Yah (God) disclosed his plans to DESTROY the WICKED CITIES:

In the events that followed in Gen. 18 and 19 -  Abraham pleaded before Yah (God) to spare the righteous people in Sodom and Gomorrah, but eventually only Lot and his two daughters reached safety before judgment) for the SINS of SODOM and GOMORRAH were EXCEEDINGLY GRIEVOUS. (Gen. 18:20).

 

ISAAC was BORN:

Gen. 21:2 "And Sarah became pregnant and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the SET TIME YAH (God) had TOLD him. :3 Abraham named ... him ISAAC (laughter). :8 And the child grew up and was weaned, and Abraham made a great feast ...

 

THE ULTIMATE TEST of ABRAHAM'S FAITH - the FOURTH ALTAR - PROVISION:

The FOURTH ALTAR that Abraham built was the ULTIMATE TEST in Abraham's life - and the MOST IMPORTANT of it ALL - also for US TODAY.

 

AS A BURNT OFFERING:

EMOTIONAL PRESSURE was PRESSING HARD on Abraham in OBEDIENCE to the VOICE of YAHWEH - to take his only son (from Sarah) - the son who will be his heir - bloodline of the Messiah and the Hebrew nation - up to Mount Moriah to be slain. Isaac was not only to be slain but BURNT to ASHES as a BURNT OFFERING.

 

Heb. 11:17 "By faith Abraham, when he was PUT TO THE TEST, while the TESTING OF HIS FAITH WAS STILL IN PROGRESS, had already brought Isaac for an offering; he who had gladly received and welcomed Yah's promises was ready to SACRIFICE his only son [Gen. 22:1-10], of whom it was said, THROUGH ISAAC shall YOUR DESCENDANTS be RECKONED [Gen. 21:12].

 

Abraham was TESTED to EXPOSE his HEART - if he REALLY BELIEVE in YAHWEH God's ALMIGHTINESS - and he passed this test with a HEART THAT BEATS for HIS CREATOR - it was a LONG JOURNEY for Abraham - from UR of the Chaldeans (Babel or ancient Babylon) to MORIAH - from the IDOLATROUS practices of the Chaldeans of ancient Babylon of which Abraham's father was a pagan priest - to Moriah - to WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. 

PERILOUS TIMES

 ( Ref. 20422)

2 Thess. 2:9-10 “The COMING of the LAWLESS ONE, the ANTICHRIST, is through the ACTIVITY and WORKING of SATAN … And by UNLIMITED SEDUCTION to EVIL and with ALL WICKED DECEPTION of THOSE who are PERISHING because they DID NOT WELCOME the TRUTH but REFUSED to LOVE it that they MIGHT be SAVED.

 

:11 Therefore YAH SENDS UPON them a MISLEADING INFLUENCE, a WORKING of ERROR and a STRONG DELUSION to MAKE THEM BELIEVE what is FALSE. In order that ALL MAY BE JUDGED and CONDEMNED who DID NOT BELIEVE in the TRUTH but instead took PLEASURE in UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.”

 

Rev. 3:3 “  … and hold FAST, and REPENT …”

 

2 Peter 3:3-4 “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their OWN LUSTS …”

 

1 Tim. 4:1 “Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to SEDUCING SPIRITS, and DOCTRINES of DEVILS …”

 

2 Tim. 3:1-4 “This know also, that in the last days PERILOUS TIMES shall come …”

 

PERILOUS TIMES:

In 2 Timothy Pauls describes the last days … the end-times as PERILOUS meaning DANGEROUS times … UNSAFE …  INSECURE … RISKY … TERRIFYING … SCARY … ALARMING … WORRYING … DREADFUL … SHOCKING … PANICKING etc.

 

We are indeed living in perilous times. Besides the pharmakeia witchcraft potions (vacceens) that were forced on us all with might … for the past two years, the entire world was told that wearing a MASK … COVERING THE FACE … would keep you safe as it  would stop the spread of the C-virus.

 

BREATHING NORMALLY - A NATURAL (God-given) ANTIVIRAL ACTIVITY:

During an extensive study, Harvard University has now found that the NATURAL EXCHANGE of carbon dioxide WASTE  for FRESH OXYGEN in the lungs (also known as RESPIRATION) is a POWERFUL ANTIVIRAL ACTIVITY that is DIRECTLY INTERFERED with by wearing the masks … putting our bodies at great RISK.

 

OXYGENATING our BLOOD and BOOSTING our IMMUNE FUNCTION:

It was found that the tiny sacs (ALVEOLI) inside our lungs exchanging Carbon Dioxide for OXYGEN with every breath we take – is facilitating the transaction of CO2 exhaled by our bodies … inhaling OXYGEN. It is a process of OXYGENATING our BLOOD and BOOSTING our IMMUNE function.

 

Wearing masks is trapping CO2 INSIDE the LUNGS BLOCKING the INTAKE of OXYGEN creating a CHEMICAL IMBALANCE INSIDE the BODY. This LEAVES the BODY PRONE to INFECTION and DISEASE.

 

400 STUDIES had been done proofing that MASKS PROVIDE NO BENEFIT at ALL and are ACTUALLY HARMFUL. According to these studies … breathing is actually a NATURAL (God-given) ANTIVIRAL ACTIVITY.

 

Normal breathing also exercises the lungs … stretching and relaxing it and this natural motion influences both the development and vital function of the lungs which naturally COMBATS INFECTION.

 

SNAKE VENOM USED in PHARMACEUTICAL DEVELOPMENT:

In a shocking revelation from dr. Bryan Ardis … it has been said that SNAKE VENOM is the most likely ORIGIN for RESEARCH into the SARS-CoV-2 GAIN-OF-FUNCTION ENHANCEMENT or C.vd VACCEENES.  Snake venom is COMMONLY USED as the STARTING POINT for pharmaceutical  research and is also used in pesticides and cosmetic by PRODUCT MANUFACTURERS.

 

“VENOMTECH – DRUG DISCOVERY SOLUTIONS”

Venomtech  … a UK company announced their MASSIVE VENOM PEPTIDE and VENOM FRAGMENT LIBRARY to be USED for DRUG  as well as PESTICIDE used for AGRICULTURAL COMPANIES … a GLOBAL LEADER for VENOM RESEARCH enterprises  with world-class laboratories at Discovery Park in Kent, England.

 

“Venomtech is collaborating with Charles River Laboratories, International Inc. to “HELP” drug developers explore VENOM-DERIVED COMPOUNDS for a WIDE RANGE of TARGETS. This newly formed collaboration will bring together Venomtech’s BIOLOGY EXPERTISE and VAST VENOM-DERIVED PEPTIDE library, with Charles River’s drug development and screening KNOWHOW, PROVIDING pharmaceutical manufacturers with a ONE-STOP SERVICE to EXPLORE this UNIQUE ‘NATURAL’ resource.

 

Venomtech’s TARGETED-VENOM DISCOVERY ARRAY (T-VDA) LIBRARIES provide researchers with a straightforward solution to rapidly screen thousands of INDIVIDUAL VENOM FRAGMENTS, with each array specifically designed to maximise HITS for a SPECIFIC TARGET” says their announcement.

 

Venomtech’s CEO Paul Grant: “Venomtech has been at the forefront of venom research for DRUG discovery for more than a DECADE … we can now showcase our innovative technology, introducing the wider industry to the potential of venoms for the successful delivery of more leads, more quickly for a broad range of [CELLULAR] targets.

 

… we can now offer our clients access to bespoke venom libraries, potentially accelerating their drug discovery PIPELINES USING THIS POWERFUL NATURAL RESOURCE.”

 

VenomTech’s own DRUG DISCOVERY PAGE:

“Our naturally derived peptide, protein, and small molecule compounds enable pioneering perspectives and solutions that have proven effective even on hard-to-hit targets where traditional approaches have previously failed. They affect a variety of molecular targets such as ion channels, GPCRs and ENZYMES, with a high degree of selectivity and potency, reaping the benefits of MILLIONS of years of EVOLUTION rather than just over a HUNDRED YEARS of DRUG DISCOVERY.

 

Our customers have access to a library of 20,000 peptides, proteins, and small molecules derived from VENOMS – the largest library of naturally sourced compounds available in the UK – supplied as an innovative Targeted-Venom Discovery Array and custom arrays with a demonstrated record of success … “

 

“We believe the Venomtech company very likely has a very bright future in its industry, by the way. “Biomimicry” means copying nature, and Big Pharma has a long history of pirating molecules from nature and turning them into multi BILLION-DOLLAR PROFIT CENTERS. The best ideas come from nature, of course, even though the FDA and other health regulators claim natural molecules are USELESS and can’t be considered ‘medicine’. Yet Big Pharma gets most of its blockbuster drugs from natural molecules, such as LOVOSTATIN MOLECULES found in RED YEAST RICE (now TURNED INTO HIGH PROFIT STATIN DRUGS).” (from Natural News.)

 

WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION AGAIN:

The World Health Organization with its serpent logo … a snake AROUND a STAFF that is used widely nowadays by various pharmaceutical organizations … representing the serpent (the devil) … the god of the world (2 Cor. 4:4) … wrapped around a STAFF – representing WORLD DOMINATION

 

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM:

An article published as part of the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting of the Global Future Councils (2018) says the following:

“VENOMICS – the SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS of VENOM – OFFERS GROUNDBREAKING SOLUTIONS to HEALTH PROBLEMS from heart disease to diabetes, to managing chronic pain.

 

In fact, there are already SIX DRUGS APPROVED for USE by the FOOD and DRUG ADMINISTRATION in the UNITED STATES that are derived from VENOM.

 

But with 15% of the world’s ANIMALS PRODUCING VENOM of SOME KIND, we have really only just begun to scratch the surface of their potential contribution to medicine.

 

Captopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, a type of drug to treat high blood pressure and improve survival and reduce the risk of heart failure after a heart attach. Its main compound is DERIVED from a SPECIES of PIT VIPER found in Brazil.

 

Prialt, derived from the venom of CONE SNAILS, is used by some of the estimated 22 million ADULTS in the US who SUFFER from SEVERE and CHRONIC PAIN.

 

Byetta is part of a new wave of drugs designed to lower blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes. It’s key ingredient, exendin-4, is found in the saliva of the Gila monster, a large lizard species native to the southwestern US and northwestern Mexico.”

 

SYNTHESIZING SNAKE VENOM for MASS PRODUCTION, USING RNA TECHNOLOGY:

The following also from the World Economic Forum’s article:

“One reason for the growing interest in this field is that advances in DNA and RNA TECHNOLOGY allow RESEARCH TO BE CARRIED OUT MUCH FASTER.


For INSTANCE, traditionally, LIVE VENOM would be EXTRACTED from the animal, then INJECTED INTO AN UNSUSPECTING LIVE RODENT or FIST to STUDY its IMPACT.

 

Nowadays, the DNA and RNA of the VENOM have ALREADY BEEN IDENTIFIED, which ALLOWS researchers to SYNTHESIZE its COMPONENTS and TEST OUT their THEORIES.”

 

NANOCARRIERS CAN STABILIZE SNAKE VENOM PEPTIDES for DELIVERY VIA WATER:

“Venom-derived peptides display diverse biological and pharmacological activities, making them useful in drug discovery platforms and for a wide range of applications in medicine and pharmaceutical biotechnology. Due to their target specificities, venom peptides have the potential to be developed into biopharmaceuticals to treat various health conditions such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and chronic pain. Despite the high potential for drug development, several limitations preclude the direct use of peptides as therapeutics and hamper the process of converting venom peptides into pharmaceuticals. These limitations include, for instance, chemical instability, poor oral absorption, short halflife, and off-target cytotoxicity. One strategy to overcome these disadvantages relies on the formulation of bioactive peptides with nanocarriers. A range of biocompatible materials are now available that can serve as nanocarriers and can improve the bioavailability of therapeutic and venom-derived peptides for clinical and diagnostic application. Examples of isolated venom peptides and crude animal venoms that have been encapsulated and formulated with different types of nanomaterials with promising results are increasingly reported.”
