OT lsaiah 43-16 do not recall what happen of old. |
The First Nation |
In "New England" the English used a self serving philosophy to take land from the native people. They decided that if the land was not enclosed (fences), and there were not inhabitations (villages and towns) and there were no tame cattle herds then the land was free for the taking. There were indeed settlements but not what the English viewed as proper towns. It was decreed the land belonged to King James I. He granted Royal Charters of vast tracts of land to English companies that came to exploit the land. |
Ah 8. Those who add house to house and join field to field, |
Till there is room for no one but you To dwell in the land |
Isaiah 5 |
9. In my hearing [said] the Lord of Hosts: Surely, great houses Shall lie forlorn, Spacious and splended ones Without occupants |
There are about 310 Indian reservations in the United States, and let us not forget the ones in Canada as well, and it is recognized that tribes have a reservation — some tribes have more than one reservation, while others have none. In addition, because of past land sales and allotments, some reservations are severely fragmented. Each piece of tribal, trust, and privately held land is a separate enclave. It seems like a random mixing of private and public real estate which some find to create significant administrative difficulties. In estimation the collective geographical area of all reservations is about 55.7 million acres (225,410 km2), representing 2.3% of the area of the United States (2,379,400,204 acres; 9,629,091 km2).This is not including the Canadian Reservation, so the percentage would be slightly higher. |
In the churches these days, one will hear the same old, same old stories of the battles of the past, the blood, and slaughtering of the lamb. There is never an expression of something new, every year its seems like the same old curriculum which leads up to the death of the son of man, a tell tale of what is said to be Gods plan. |
OT Isaiah 40:13 |
NEIGHBORS WORK TO PROTECT VACANT HOMES You don't have to sit around while foreclosed homes fall apart around you. Be selfish and make sure that once this housing crisis actually ends your neighborhood doesn't look like the 9th ward in New Orleans after Katrina. Take a look at how residents around the metro area are taking matters into their own hands and doing what they can to help counteract the effects of massive foreclosures in their neighborhoods. This was taken from the following link, it is just one example of empty homes. http://www.detroitarmy.com/2009/03/neighbors-work-to-protect-vacant-homes.html |
Who has plumbed the mind of the Lord, What man could tell Him His plan? |
10 For ten acres of vineyard shall yeild just one bath, And a field sown with a homer of seed Shall yeild a mere ephah. |
The bath was the liquid equivalent of the ephah; and the homer was ten baths of ephah. |
An ancient Hebrew unit of dry measure, equal to a tenth of a homer or about one bushel (35 liters). |
In estimation the collective geographical area of all reservations is 55.7 million acres (225,410 km2), representing 2.3% of the area of the United States (2,379,400,204 acres; 9,629,091 km2)..This is not including the Canadian Reservation, so the percentage would be slightly higher. |
One Bath |
A society is the institutions and culture of a distinct self-perpetuating group. |
B.A.T.H.S |
one tenth of 35 = 3.5 |
What is that to mean, "do not recall what happen of old. How old is old, One hundred, a thousand years. Could it pretain to the endless, stream of the Battle of this, and the Battle of that, hell fire, and the devil. |
For what is to be said next, one can not help but talk about the days of old. Its not to far back in history when the settlers came from afar, to a New World, where they settled and built their farms and homes, taking what they willed by order of the Kings and Queens in the world at the time, not knowing of their silent invasion, and the taking over,and misleading of...................... |
10 My witnesses are you. |
Shadow : a source of gloom or unhappiness |
Wing : a means of flight or rapid progress. |
Deep : the middle or most intense part |
lsaiah 18 Ah, land in the deep shadow of wings, Beyond the rivers of Nubia! |
To better understanding this verse, a look at defintions is applied. Deep is the middle or most intense part, the shadow a place in a state of gloom or unhappiness, and the wings a place that has a means of flight or there is rapid progress. Could this apply to America which is in the middle of mayor state of gloom, and unhappiness starting possibly from 911, to the recent celebrity deaths, then there is the layoffs, and home foreclosures brought about by Recession, and the list seems to go on. Still even in the unhappiness, and gloom it is believed there is still hope for brighter things to come. |
2 Go, swift messengers, To a nation far and remote, To a people thrust forth and away A nation of gibber and chatter Whose land is cut off by streams; Which sends out envoys by sea, In papyrus vessels upon the water! |
The messengers here are to go to a place a long distance away, in a certain time or at a certain time. The people who the messengers are to go to were pressed to accept something according to others terms. Said to be a nation of gibber and chatter is to say it is a lauguage hard to comprehend or understand. The land which was cut off by the streams by those representative of a government who were sent on a special diplomatic mission, with their documents from their Kings and Queens, giving them the right to land which belong to those thrust forth and away. |
Remote : far of in a place or time |
Papyrus : A material on which to write made from the pith or the stems of this sedge |
Vessel : A person seen as the agent or embodiment, as of a quality |
3[Say this:] "All you who live in the world And inhabit the earth, When a flag is raised in the hills, take note! When a ram's horn is blown, give heed!" |
Is this a warning of some kind, for this time, could this have been a warning to the First Nation for the days of old, of the settlers invasion which the Native people did endure during the settlement of the new world. |
4 For thus the Lord said to me: "I rest calm and confident in My habitation Like a scorching heat upon sprouts, Like rain-cloud in the heat of reaping time." |
So where is this habitation, is it here on earth? does this talk about earths habitation, much like the expression used by Natives to emphasize the Creator as the all of everything. So if God rest calm and confident in His habitation, what makes us think it is ours. We abide here, on earth, in His habitation. |
5 For before the harvest, yet after the budding, When the blossom has hardened into berries, He will trim away the twigs with pruning hooks, And lop off the trailing branches. |
Along with bringing many things into the New World,and taking away many things, the settlers also gave the Word of the "lord". Natives suffered from the abuse of religious conterdiction for many years, and were forced to even give up their own belief which had been passed down to them from generation, to generation. It has only been recently in history that the Church apologized to the Native people for their action of the past. Famous in Christian teaching is the harvest, an End time event which will gather all those who are followers of jesus to live for eternity in the Kingdom of God, and leave those who are not with jesus behind to be judged. This verse talks about just before the harvest, were God will trim away the twigs,(what was thought to be understood,or figured out), and will lop off the trailing branches. What are the trailing branches? Trailing branches are vines. |
NT John 15: 1-6 Jesus said, "I am the true vine, my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear fruit. I am the vine you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from him you can do nothing. If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the blades are gathered, and thrown into the fire and burned." |
Twig : To understand or figure out |
6 They shall all be left To the kites of the hills And to the beast of the earth; The kites shall summer on them And all the beast of the earth shall winter on them. |
As it was stated in Isaiah 5:5 the hedges of the vineyard will be removed, it will be ravaged, and the walls will be broken down, it will be trampled, and it will be made a desolation, it will not be pruned and hoed, it will be overgrown with briers and thistles, and the rain will not fall on it. The vine languishes, the new wine fails, the vintage is over. |
With the Word being said to be truth (Old Testament), what is to be said about the truth of the gospel. (New Testament) With a free will, we are free to believe what we will. If no man knows Gods plan, then what is to be thought of the next verse. Does it speak of a land and time of old, or does it speak about this time, and a nation of people of long ago, invaded by another of Gods people who had know idea of the connection The First Nation already had with the Creator. |
7 In that time, Tribute shall be brought to the Lord of Hosts [From] a people far an remote, From a people thrust forth and away A nation of gibber and chatter, Whos land was cut off by streams At a place where the name of the Lord of Hosts abides, at Mount Zion. |
Isaiah 43 5 Fear not, for I am with you: I will bring your folk from the East, Will gather you out of the West; |
6 I will say to the north," Give back!" And to the South, "Do not withhold! Bring My sons from afar, And my daughters from the end of the earth |
7 All who are link to My name, Whom I created, Formed, and made for My glory |
8 Setting free that people, Blind through it has eyes And deaf though it has ears." |
9 All the nations assemble as one, The peoples gather. Who among them declared this, Foretold to us the things that have happen? Let them produce their witnesses and vindicated, That men, hearing them, may say, " It is true!" |
Alright so there is nothing to worry about, everyone is going to come together by the order of God. |
So everyone from everywhere, East, West, North, and South, also included are the sons from afar, and the daughters of the end of the earth. |
The Flat Earth model is a view that the Earth's shape is a flat plane. This view contrasts with a view recorded around the 4th century BC by natural philosophers of Classical Greece that the Earth is spherical. Various cultures have had conceptions of a flat Earth, including ancient Babylon, Egypt, pre-Classical Greece and pre-17th century China[citation needed].Apart from these cultures, records are found in Jainism religion which states a unique picture of universe, and it considers earth to be flat, and roughly a trapezium. The false belief that medieval Christianity believed in a flat earth has been referred to as The Myth of the Flat Earth. In 1945, it was listed by the Historical Association (of Britain) as the second of 20 in a pamphlet on common errors in history. Although the hypothesis of the flat Earth has long been generally dismissed, there are still occasional modern advocates of the hypothesis. |
This verse is talking about everybody, not just one group, everyone God has created, you me them, everyone linked to His name. |
So at this point the question would be, is this script for those in the past, or is it for us now. Are we waiting for everyone of the worlds nations to assemble as one, or could it be said that the United Nations is an assembling of nations which have gathered into one. Is the United Nations not a gathering of peoples from the East, West North and South,and also including The First Nation? |
The End Of The Earth |
Thrust : to press the acceptance of upon someone |
Far : involving a long distance. |
Forlorn : Appearing sad or lonely because deserted or abandoned. |
: Forsaken or deprived |
: Wretched or pitiful in appearance or condition |
Streams : To come or go in large numbers; |
So we will be free, we will finally see and hear, but what is it we will see, and what is it we will hear. |
