884 - Les Feldick Bible Study - Lesson 2 Part 4 Book 74 - Connecting the Dots of Scripture - Part 8

https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 2 * PART 4 * BOOK 74 CONNECTING THE DOTS OF SCRIPTURE – PART 8 Genesis through Revelation Okay, for those of you joining us on television, just in case you’re catching us for the first time, we’re just an informal Bible study. I always make the point. I’m not trying to attack anyone. And hopefully we can just get people to see what the Book says! I don’t want anyone to go into a Sunday school class and say, “This is what Les Feldick says.” That doesn’t amount to anything. Be able to say, hey, this is what the Book says. Hopefully we’re making some headway. All right, we’re going to keep right on with our subject of the physical attributes and the qualities of this Earthly Kingdom that’s coming. And now we’re going to move on up to the next of the Major Prophets, Ezekiel. So, those of you in the studio can be turning with me to Ezekiel chapter 47. We’re going to start reading at verse 1. And again, I’m going to do like I’ve been doing all afternoon. We’re going to do more reading than usual, but hopefully the Scripture can speak for itself if you understand what we’re trying to show: that these are all promises given to the Nation of Israel that’s in their future. It hasn’t happened yet, but it’s going to happen! All right, verse 1. Ezekiel 47:1-2 “Afterward he brought me again unto the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward: for the forefront of the house stood toward the east, (He’s speaking of this millennial building in Jerusalem.) and the waters came down from under the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar. 2. Then he brought me out of the way of the gate northward, and led me about the way without unto the utter gate by the way that looketh eastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.” All right, now we looked at these before. But here is this river of water that’s going to come out from underneath the throne room there in Jerusalem during the millennium. The river will run out east to the Dead Sea, and it will totally cure the Dead Sea and make it fresh water. Everything that’s associated with the water that flows to the Dead Sea will cause life to come. That’s opposite of what the Dead Sea is now. Then the other half of the river will flow west to the Mediterranean. This is all during this 1,000 year reign of Christ. All right, let’s move on a few verses, and then we’re going to go on into the Book of Daniel. All right, verse 7. Ezekiel 47:7-8a “Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other. 8. Then he said unto me, (Now this, I think, is an angel speaking to Ezekiel.) These waters issue out toward the east country, and down into desert, and go into the sea:” Now if you know Jerusalem, we can stand on the Mount of Olives and on a nice clear day you can almost see the Dead Sea. That’s east about 18 or 20 miles, if I remember right, from Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. All right, so this is what he’s talking about. From under the sanctuary this water or this river will flow east to the desert and into the Dead Sea. Ezekiel 47:8b-9a “…which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed. (That is into the Dead Sea. These waters are going to be so pure that they will purify the salty, mineralized waters of the Dead Sea.) 9. And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: (In other words, it’s going to be a water of life, or it’ll be life-giving water.) which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed;…” If you’ve been to the Dead Sea, and many of you have, I’m sure. Absolutely nothing lives in the Dead Sea. Nothing, because it is so saturated with salt and minerals. That’s why you can’t sink in it. You float. I’ll never forget the time my dear little wife over here tried to swim in the Dead Sea, and it just flipped her upside down. She wasn’t quite ready for it. But, that’s what it is. This water from the mountain in Jerusalem is going to totally change the Dead Sea to a fresh water sea. Ezekiel 47:10a “And it shall come to pass, (See, it has never happened yet, but it’s going to.) that the fishers (fishermen) shall stand upon it from En-gedi even unto En-egliam; there shall be a place to spread forth nets;…” Now, someone just asked me at break time: are we going to eat meat in the millennium? That is, if we’re there. I’m still not sure whether Church Age people are going to be in the millennium or not. Because after all, they’re so separated from Israel in so many ways; #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
