      The artwork is always great and it really helps to understand and follow along with the commentary. However all the constant moving and overlapping colours on this episode becomes very distracting and I found it difficult to follow. It was actually hard to watch after a while.

      As the youngest in my family, I figured that my oldest sibling would manage our parents’ estate, and would have been glad to defer to the oldest. We would have agreed that the middle was NOT a good choice, but I’ve been rejected by both. The oldest doesn’t believe that I have adequate value to associate with her,while the other was out of the state when someone had to step up, so she didn’t get control…
      Her three ex-husbands would no doubt have advised against her controlling our dad’s finances!
      I think I was God’s only default option?

      As Hebrews 4:12 (NASB95) says: "For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart."

    As the youngest, this hit me home. Makes me happy that i too stands a chance here. In my tradition it is often said that the youngest in the family often receives the least amount of blessings and it has appeared to be true in many families thus this word was passed on from generation to generation.

      This misses the point of the video. By the end of the video it is explained how Jesus extends the identical blessing of birthright to all Gods children, no matter what place they have in the family, both Jews and Gentiles alike. You’re hearing something the video isn’t saying. You’re still interpreting the gift of Gods Holy Spirit through human eyes.

      I have trouble with the post modern age that is the Christian church today in America. I dig deep and what I discover with the help of those who have long come before, who spend their entire lives unpacking Scripture, is very different than what is excepted as Gospel among the unschooled. So much so, often seen as a threat to the status quo. But it's vids like these and teachings of Paul Washer (I'm not reformed) that reaffirm there some of us far closer to the truth than others. There will be many Jesus will say to "away from me for I do not know u." Seems like the only thing important to many Christian is using fear to button hole people into reciting a prayer, thus a one way ticket to heaven. Nevermind the primary mission of any who believe Jesus is God, tha is being transformed into the likeness of Jesus. The modern day church is more about information than transformation. "Always learning but never coming to a knowledge of the Truth."

      let's take a look at Saul, the first king of Israel. He was instructed to destroy everything the Hittites had, and to take nothing. That meant killing all animals, the Hittite king, and to leave behind the riches. But Saul kept the king alive and kept the "best animals for sacrifice." Samuel confronts Saul, asking him, "Why do I hear the bellows of the oxen and the bleeting of the sheep?" Saul tells Samuel, and Samuel asks, "Does God want the best sacrifice over obedience? You were instructed to destroy everything and take nothing, yet you did not obey." (paraphrasing, but what have you). Samuel had to finish what God instructed. Saul did not obey God's command. Obedience IS better than sacrifice. Obedience can ultimately lead TO sacrifice, if you know what I mean. It's not nonsensical, you just have to pull yourself away from that thought process and think, "What would obedience lead to?"@@francmittelo6731

      ​@francmittelo6731 I think she's referring to tithing/offering. The scripture is from 1 Samuel 15:22. In this context of this statement, I think she's pointing out that obedience to the Lord is better than a monetary sacrifice. Tithing/offering is great, but I think it becomes diluted or meaningless if the person is not submitting to the will of God as well.

    I always thought of "The First shall be Last and the Last shall be First" as God's way of warning us that when His Kingdom comes, the first to enter will not be Kings or Rich Men or Priests. It will be the poor and hungry. The people we neglected.
    But this was a wonderful take in itself. Loved the animation as well. Gave me a new way to look at the idea and added this historical angle that is very much needed in Christian teaching these days. History is so devalued and poorly taught in the West anymore.

      🗼THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God saves man from the destruction of this old world"
      (I have prophesied that when land is separated from land, and land joins land, this is the time I will crush the nations of pieces. The many nations within the universe will again be divided and replaced by My kingdom, so the nations under the earth will disappear forever and will be one kingdom worshiping Me; all nations on earth will be destroyed and cease to exist. When I punish many people, those in the religious world, in different dimensions, will return to My kingdom, conquered by My works, because they have seen the coming of the Holy one riding on a white cloud. I will reveal Myself to so many people and to so many nations, and with My own voice, I will be heard under the earth, declaring the completion of My great work for all humanity to see with their own eyes. As the end of My plan of reign approaches, I will restore the previous state of creation; I restore all things their original order, which makes a great change in all things, so that all things return to the origin of My plan. The time has come! The last phase of My plan is nearly fulfilled. Ah, dirty old world! You will definitely come under My words! Ah, the myriad things of creation! You will all receive a new life according My words-your Almighty Lord will sign you! Ah, Mount Zion! Don't be silent-I'm back in victory! Israel today will surely obtain the source of existence through My people.)
      Almighty God said
      In the KINGDOM, so many CREATED things BEGIN to LIVE again and RECOVER their life force. Due to CHANGES in the CONDITION of the EARTH, the BOUNDARIES BETWEEN ONE LAND and another also STARTS to MOVE. ☀️
      I have PROPHESIED that WHEN LAND is SEPARATED from LAND, and LAND JOINS LAND, this is the TIME I WILL CRUSH the NATIONS to PIECES. 😪
      At this TIME, I AM RENEWING ALL CREATION and will DIVIDE--REDIVIDE the ENTIRE UNIVERSE, thus the universe will be FIXED and the OLD will become NEW----this is My PLAN and these are My WORKS. When ALL the NATIONS and PEOPLE of the WORLD RETURN BEFORE My THRONE, I WILL TAKE ALL the RICHNESS of HEAVEN and GIVE it to the human world, so that because of Me, that world will be filled with incomparable that abundance. But as LONG as the OLD WORLD CONTINUES to EXIST, I will pour out My WRATH upon its NATIONS, UNTIL My administrative decrees are PRONOUNCED throughout the UNIVERSE, and I WILL PUNISH ANYONE WHO VIOLATES them. 🙏
      When I turn My FACE to the UNIVERSE to SPEAK, ALL HUMANITY LISTENS to My VOICE and then ALL I have DONE SEES the ENTIRE UNIVERSE. 🙏
      Those who resist My will, that is, those who oppose Me in human works, will be subject to My chastisement. I will take the many stars of the sky and change them, and because of Me, the sun and the moon will be changed---the sky will not be the same and many things on earth will be changed. ALL will be PERFECT THROUGH My WORDS. The many NATIONS within the UNIVERSE will again be divided and REPLACED by My KINGDOM, so the NATIONS UNDER the EARTH will DISAPPEAR FOREVER and ALL will be ONE KINGDOM WORSHIPING Me; ALL NATIONS on EARTH will be DESTROYED and CEASE to EXIST. 🙏
      Among the PEOPLE INSIDE the UNIVERSE, ALL that belong to the DEVIL will be DESTROYED, and ALL SATAN WORSHIPERS will be thrown into My BURNING FIRE--that is, EXCEPT for those who FOLLOW the current, ALL will be reduced to ashes. ☀️😪
      When I PUNISH many PEOPLE, those in the RELIGIOUS WORLD, in different DIMENSIONS, will RETURN to My KINGDOM, CONQUERED by My WORKS, because they have SEEN the COMING of the HOLY ONE RIDING on a WHITE CLOUD. 🙏💐
      ALL PEOPLE WILL BE SEPARATED ACCORDING to their OWN KIND, and will RECEIVE PUNISHMENTS BELONGING to their ACTIONS. EVERYONE who RESISTS Me WILL be SORRY; those who do not involve Me in their deeds on earth, they, because of the way they acquit themselves, will continue to exist on earth under the rule of My children and My people. I WILL REVEAL MYSELF to so many PEOPLE and to so many NATIONS, and with My OWN VOICE, I WILL be HEARD under the EARTH, DECLARING the COMPLETION of My great WORK for ALL HUMANITY to SEE with their OWN EYES.
      As My VOICE GROWS, I also observe the state of the universe. THROUGH My WORDS, so many CREATED THINGS are CHANGING EVERYTHING. Humanity is EXPOSED in its ORIGINAL FORM and slowly, each person is SEPARATE according to their kind, and FINDS their way unconsciously back to the womb of their family. This is very pleasing to Me. I am free from distraction and, inconspicuously, accomplishing My great work, and renewing all the myriad creations. When I CREATED the WORLD, I MADE ALL THINGS ACCORDING to their KIND, INCLUDING ALL THINGS of the SAME FORM as their KIND. ☀️
      As the END of My PLAN of REIGN APPROACHES, I WILL RESTORE the PREVIOUS STATE of CREATION; I RESTORE ALL THINGS to their ORIGINAL order, WHICH MAKES a great CHANGE in ALL THINGS, so that ALL THINGS RETURN to the ORIGIN of My PLAN. The TIME has COME!
      The LAST PHASE of My PLAN is NEARLY FULFILLED. ☀️🙏
      Ah, DIRTY OLD WORLD! You will definitely come under My WORDS! You will definitely LOSE VALUE according to My PLAN! 😪
      Ah, the myriad things of creation! YOU WILL ALL RECEIVE A NEW LIFE according to My WORDS---YOUR ALMIGHTY LORD WILL SIGN YOU! 💐🙏
      Ah, PURE and unblemished NEW WORLD! You will surely live again within My glory! Ah, MOUNT ZION!
      Don't be silent----I'M BACK in VICTORY!
      From the center of creation, I survey the entire world. ON EARTH, a NEW LIFE has BEGUN and HUMANITY has GAINED a NEW HOPE. Ah, My people! How can you not argue with joy under My guidance? THE LANDS SHOUT for JOY, the WATERS ROAR with JOYOUS LAUGHTER! Ah, the LIVING coal ISRAEL! HOW can YOU NOT be PROUD BECAUSE of My DESTINED DESTINY? ☀️🙏
      Who cried? Who cried? The former ISRAEL is GONE, and the ISRAEL of TODAY has RISE, STRAIGHT and STANDING in the WORLD, and STANDING in the HEARTS of ALL MANKIND. ISRAEL TODAY WILL SURELY OBTAIN the source of EXISTENCE THROUGH My people! 🙏
      Ah, ABOMINABLE EGYPT! MAYBE you are NO LONGER AGAINST Me? How are you able to take advantage of My mercy and try to escape My chastisement? How can you not exist within My chastisement? EVERYONE I LOVE will surely LIVE FOREVER, and EVERYONE AGAINST Me I will surely PERSECUTE FOREVER. Because I am a jealous God and I will not just FORGIVE PEOPLE for EVERYTHING they have DONE.
      I will WATCH the entire EARTH and, as I APPEAR in the EAST of the WORLD with righteousness, majesty, wrath, and chastisement, I WILL REVEAL MYSELF to the multitudes of mankind.
