The New World Order By: Dr. Pete Norris
He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love. (Colossians 1:13 NKJV)
Conveyed us into the Kingdom and this is past tense.
…Who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water. There is also an antitype which now saves us—baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. (I Peter 3:20, 21 NKJV)
Noah in Hebrew means "Rest." The ark had three levels; the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; thirty, sixty, and a hundred-fold. Verse 20, they were saved by the water. Water represents the Word.
…That He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word. (Ephesians 5:26 NKJV)
…Having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever. (I Peter 1:23 NKJV)
Make yourself an ark of gopherwood; make rooms in the ark and cover it inside and outside with pitch. (Genesis 6:14 NKJV)
Pitch means "atonement, Reconciliation, Redemption”.
You shall make a window for the ark, and you shall finish it to a cubit from above; and set the door of the ark in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third decks. (Genesis 6:16 NKJV)
Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. (John 10:7 NKJV)
Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided. The fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were also stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained. Then the ark rested in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat. (Genesis 8:1, 2, 4 NKJV)
Look at the seventh month and seventeenth day.
Now the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, “This month shall be your beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you. (Exodus 12:1, 2 NKJV)
Month seven by Jewish calendar is Passover. It is the first month is the seventh month in civil calendar.
On the fourteenth day of the first month at twilight is the Lord’s Passover. (Leviticus 23:5 NKJV)
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into the land which I give to you, and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest. He shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted on your behalf; on the day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it. (Leviticus 23:9-11 NKJV)
The first fruit is the seventeenth day which is three days after Passover. Sunday after Passover the Ark landed on Mount Ararat. When did Jesus resurrect three days after the Passover. Who was the Firstfruit from the Dead?
But now Christ is risen from the dead and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. (I Corinthians 15:20 NKJV)
Then the ark rested in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat. (Genesis 8:4 NKJV)
Mount Ararat means "the curse is reversed." This Hebrew Word is found in NAS Old Testament Hebrew Lexicon.
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”).
(Galatians 3:13 NKJV)
And God said: “This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. (Genesis 9:12, 13 NKJV)
God made a deal with earth to not flood it anymore. Look at this saying, perpetual generation.
“For this is like the waters of Noah to Me; For as I have sworn That the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth, So have I sworn That I would not be angry with you, nor rebuke you. (Isaiah 54:9 NKJV)
Remember this is after Isaiah 53, the crucifixion and resurrection.
For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,” Says the Lord, who has mercy on you. (Isaiah 54:10 NKJV)
God can't remove My Covenant of Peace because Jesus was chastised for my Peace.
Wine is a mocker, Strong drink is a brawler, And whoever is led astray by it is not wise. (Proverbs 20:1 NKJV)
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5 NKJV)
And Noah began to be a farmer, and he planted a vineyard. Then he drank the wine and was drunk, and became uncovered in his tent. (Genesis 9:20, 21 NKJV)
This is the problem with drunkness, something else is controlling you instead of the Holy Spirit.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. (Genesis 9:22 NKJV)
Ham exposed His Fathers' sin. The other two brothers covered their Fathers' sin.
But Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness. (Genesis 9:23 NKJV)
We are going to have people that will take the robe of righteousness and lay it over the people’s sin. Noah stayed in the tent because the tent was his covering for his failure. A lot of people are covering up their sin through condemnation or guilt.
“Woe to the rebellious children,” says the Lord, “Who take counsel, but not of Me, And who devise plans, but not of My Spirit, That they may add sin to sin; (Isaiah 30:1 NKJV)
And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.” (I Peter 4:8 NKJV)
Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all sins. (Proverbs 10:12 NKJV)
