In the previous study By Him all things consist-Part 1 we saw Col 1:15-17 How Messiah became the firstborn over all creation in order to reconcile all things back to Alahim.
We compared spiritual things with spiritual to see that the present earth and the heavens stood as a shadow of the new heavens and the new earth and the spiritual is hidden in the natural.
Gen 2:4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the YAHUAH Alahim made the earth and the heavens,
The natural/carnal lies under the waters of judgement of Alahim and Alahim's Spirit moved on this deep (Gen 1:2) in working out salvation in fishing out a people called by his name from the deep to be citizens of the new heavens and the new earth which stands out of the water of Alahim's judgement (2 Peter 3:5-6).
We saw the testimony of many scriptures which show how Messiah descended into the lower parts of the earth by being part of his creation which was subject to vanity (Rom 8:20-21, Psalms 8:4) to deliver us from death by the baptism of his death and raise us up to a new life by his resurrection thus fishing us out of the natural to the spiritual, from death to life, from wrath to peace.
We then saw how the type was outlined in the OT when all our fathers went through the cloud and all passed through the Red Sea as the Rock that followed them in the pillar of cloud during the day and the pillar of fire by night was Messiah.
Finally we saw how all things were reconciled back to Alahim through Messiah, things in heaven and things on earth (Eph 1:9-10) when Messiah who is our life and hope delivers us from the corruption of death which is the last enemy yet to be destroyed. With that hope in us we as all our fathers look for the heavenly country in which righteousness dwells and are pilgrims and sojourner's here having no inheritance in this world. We saw Alahim's covenant of the rainbow in the cloud spiritually a promise of his deliverance from the present world which is under the wrath of the waters of his judgement and we saw the Messenger who descended from heaven covered with the cloud and rainbow on his head (Rev 10:1) is Messiah.
In this study we will see how our salvation from the wrath of Alahim is outlined in spiritual vs spiritual comparison with the deliverance of the waters of judgement and the deliverance from our enemies. The spiritual hidden in the natural.
Noah's flood stood as a type of the judgement Messiah bore for us by descending into the deep and preached deliverance to the spirits in the prison (these are his elect who were bound captive under the waters of Alahim's wrath in this natural world).
1 Peter 3:18-21 For Messiah also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to Alahim, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: [19] By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; [20] Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of Alahim waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. [21] The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward Alahim,) by the resurrection of Yahusha Messiah:
It is clearly outlined in the scriptures above that Noah's flood stood as a type of Alahim's wrath and the deliverance of Noah and his sons a type of deliverance of all the elect of Alahim through the baptism of Messiah's death and his resurrection.
Now let's see Israel out of Egypt
Ps 77:16 The waters saw thee, O Alahim, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.
18 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.
19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
The Psalmist here clearly shows that Alahim's way is in the SEA and his path in the GREAT WATERS and his footsteps are not known. He made his people pass through the Red Sea as on dry land while the horse and the rider he has cast into the sea.
We see the song of Moses in which he sang unto Yahuah for the strong deliverance by his right hand through their enemies by making them pass through on dry land whereas the enemy who pursued them sank at the bottom of the deep as a stone.
Ex 15:1 ¶ Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the YAHUAH, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the YAHUAH, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
2 The YAHUAH is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my Alahim, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's Alahim, and I will exalt him.
3 The YAHUAH is a man of war: the YAHUAH is his name.
4 Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
5 The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.
6 Thy right hand, O YAHUAH, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O YAHUAH, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
Rev 15:2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand (histemi) on the sea of glass, having the harps of Alahim.
Rev 15:3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of Alahim, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Yahuah Alahim Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
Rev 15:4 Who shall not fear thee, O Yahuah, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.
The song of Moses and the song of the Lamb are one and the same sung by those who had gotten victory over the beast and over his image and over his mark and over the number of his name and these stood on the sea of glass mingled with fire
The Greek word in 2 Peter 3:5 'sunistemi' is from the root word 'histemi' and is translated as 'standing' which is a plural form of 'stand/stood' which 'histemi' means
2Pe 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of Alahim the heavens were of old, and the earth standing (sunistemi) out of the water and in the water:
This is clear as crystal to us that the sea of glass mingled with fire is the judgement of Alahim which they have overcome. Alahim deliberately uses the words 'sea' and 'fire' to relate to what he says through Peter in 2 Peter 3:5-7 because he shows his judgement through the waters of Noah's flood and then he will show the same judgement through fire by which he will consume the sons of perdition. The elect being part of the new earth are standing on this sea of transperence (English renders it as glass but Greek renders it as transperence) mingled with fire
2Pe 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of Alahim the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
Alahim's judgement is transparent and his way in the sea is known to his elect and unknown to the unrighteous.
Psalms 77:19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
We wouldn't have known his footsteps in the great waters unless he had revealed it to us.What a great deliverance he brings about to his people. The kings of the earth/false prophets think they have escaped the judgement because they think they are not in captivity and they are safe without realizing that they are captivated by Mystery Babylon. They will never learn the new song which only the elect could learn. The new song is the hidden manna that Messiah gives his elect to see the transperence of his judgement of waters and fire so that they be escaped of it.
Re 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
Peter before he begins telling us of the earth standing out of the water and in water speaks of the false prophets. The whole of 2 Peter 2 speaks of the judgement of the false prophets. We saw in the study on this blog itself named 'Merchandise of slaves and souls of men' that it's not enough to physically come out of churches but we must spiritually loath all those false doctrines we were deceived by. There false prophets see Alahim's judgement carnally and have come out without realizing that 'Mystery Babylon' is a spiritual beastly kingdom which they are still part of because they follow her false doctrines. They will be caught unaware of the coming of Messiah because don't know his footsteps in the great waters. They are busy buying and selling 'slaves and souls of men' and wailing and weeping over Mystery Babylon.
2Pe 2:1 ¶ But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Yahuah that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 ¶ And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
'Where is the promise of his coming?' At first glance reading would mean to say that they don't believe his coming at all. That's not true they proclaim and believe that Messiah is coming but they are scoffers. Scoffers are those who do not accept the testimony of the elect. Though the elect are proclaiming and showing Alahim's footsteps in the great waters, they will not accept their testimony but are mocking them.
2Pe 3:3 ¶ Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
They are IGNORANT of the spiritual in the natural. They are carnal. They can't see that the creature was made subject to vanity not willing but by the reason of him who subjected the same in hope (Rom 8:20). They see Adam was perfect before he sinned. They see he fell by his free will. They can't see the heavens and the earth in the earth and the heavens. They can't see that man of dust has no hupostasis of Alahim in him to connect him back to Alahim and only Messiah who dived into the deep carries the hupostasis (susbtance) of Alahim which connects us to Alahim and thus reconciles all things in heaven and on earth (Eph 1:9-10) back to Alahim through him because BY HIM ALL THINGS CONSISTS.
2Pe 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of Alahim the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
They put Messiah on the same ground as we are i.e. as a creature who was subject to vanity without seeing that he became part of his creation because by him all things consist and he is the only hope of releasing the spirits who are in this prison of vanity and therefore he had come in the likeness of sinful flesh and take the wrath of Alahim on him.
These all as Gog and Magog (false brethren) surround the camp of the saints but fire will come down from heaven and consume them.
Re 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from Alahim out of heaven, and devoured them.
This is the sea of transperence mingled with fire that the elect stand on
Ps 18:15 Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O YAHUAH, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
16 He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.

3 The YAHUAH is a man of war: the YAHUAH is his name.
4 Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
5 The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.
6 Thy right hand, O YAHUAH, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O YAHUAH, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

Ps 18:15 Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O YAHUAH, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
16 He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.
Gog and Magog, Egypt, Moab, Palestine, Edom are all false brethren and you may refer to my studies on this blog 'The purpose of Genealogies' , 'Gog and Magog' & 'Brethren or enemies of the Yahuah'.
In the song of Moses these false brethren are mentioned who are enemies of Israel.
Ex 15:14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.
15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O YAHUAH, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
The Yahuah's people will pass over whom he has purchased because he leads them in a pillar of cloud by day and pillar of fire by night.
Ex 13:21 And the YAHUAH went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:
Re 10:1 ¶ And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire
The cloud speaks of the baptism of his death which he endured for us and delivered us from the wrath of Alahim by which he leads us and the pillar of fire his judgement which went before his people to destroy all those enemies who wouldn't let his people pass over. The mighty angel who came down from heaven was clothed with a cloud and his feet were pillars of fire. This is a picture of Messiah who plunged himself into the deep to rescue his elect from the wrath of Alahim as well as their enemies who pursued them.
This is the vision Ezekiel saw of Messiah's glory. He saw in an imagery of the likeness of a man seated on the throne and his loins upward and downward were as the appearance of fire round about it and the brightness round about was as the appearance of the rainbow that is in the cloud in the day of rain. This is exactly what we saw 'cloud' and 'fire' because he is a Alahim of COVENANT and rainbow is his promise of his covenant to his elect.
Eze 1:26 ¶ And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.
27 And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.
28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the YAHUAH. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
All his elect will stand on the sea of transperence mingled with fire with harps in our hands gaining victory over the beast and his mark and his image and the number of his name because our Yahuah plunged into the deep fire of Alahim's wrath for us to rescue us to make us part of the new heavens and the new earth which stands out of Alahim's wrath and rescues us from the enemy who is too strong for us.
