The scattering by God of the Ten Tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel is a
very important study from God's Word. Genesis 49:10 reveals that one from the
tribe of Judah would always sit on the throne of Israel until Shiloh (Jesus
Christ) come, and then the throne would be handed over to our Lord and Saviour
Christ.
There is a royal line of Judah sitting upon the throne
of Israel today, but that throne of Israel is not in the Holy Land. Zedekiah,
who lived and reigned during Jeremiah the prophet's day, was the last king of
the 'house of Judah' in the Holy Land. Since Jeremiah's time, that throne was
taken from the land we call Israel today, and no king of Judah has ruled there
since then.
For God's Word to be correct (Gen.49:10), then there
must still be one of the tribe of Judah sitting on the throne of Israel. So
where is that throne today?
These studies will help you discover this Truth.
This is a study that keeps appearing every now and then in Christian literature
since the last few hundred years. It is an important teaching from our Father,
as it helps to reveal to His People their heritage, and most of all, what He
set out for them to accomplish as a people. Its knowledge gives His People a
unity of purpose and well being, by knowing that the promises God made to
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are true. In unity of purpose through His Son Jesus
Christ, and realizing the meaning behind these promises is strength and peace
of mind. And for many of these reasons,
various
false ones try to tear down this knowledge of the Lost Ten Tribes and God's
promises, in an attempt to create consternation against His People.
I can
assure the reader that some of the most God enlightened individual rulers of
the past, in American and European history both, were aware of the significance
of this teaching and from it gained strength for right thinking and just
behaviour in helping to carry out God's Plan. For those of God's People not to be aware of
their heritage is to go in the way of Esau, despising their
'birthright' blessings from God.
Some get upset when the subject of the
Ten Tribes pop up, quoting...
I
Timothy 1:4 Neither heed to fables and
endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which
is in faith, so to go.
...about
not giving 'heed' to 'fables' and 'endless genealogies'. That
word 'endless' is 'aperantos' in the Greek meaning 'unfinished,
(by implication) interminable' (Strong's no.562), and 'fables' is 'muthos'
in the Greek meaning 'a tale, fiction, myth' (Strong's no.3454). The
main subject there in I Timothy is the requirement of what subject matter is to
be taught in God's Church, which is declared His Word, not man's traditions.
Thus, 'fables' and 'endless genealogies' are referring to some
preacher getting up at the pulpit and bringing in all kind of ficticous family
analogies to teach with, instead of sticking to God's Word. The 'genealogies'
God set forth in His Word are never a 'fable', or an 'endless
genealogy', and any teacher that claims so is a false prophet that
should not be heeded.
God's
genealogies are non-fiction, finite not endless, have a purpose, and are a part
of His Word. So we must choose either to listen to man's words, staying
ignorant of God's Word and His Plan, or we can choose to listen to our
Father, The God of Abraham, The God of
Isaac, and The God of Jacob.
