Where did they go?

The order of the tribes sealed are rmd thousand showing a mystery concerning the tribes as not to birth (Exodus 28), but according to tribes (Numbers 10). The order of the tribes change several times as has been stated in Revelation 7 in the sealing. The order of birth having the twelve tribes written upon the onyx stones of the high priest shoulders (six on one shoulder and six on the other) have no preference of one tribe over another, for there is no respect of persons in God. Onyx means to blanch or to make white alluding to order according to birth.

However, in the order of the tribes, there is difference according to the calling. The order is changed in Revelation 7 due to a higher glory that the church will enter into; thus the change. There is another final change in the final glory of God's tabernacling in us and us in Him with the New Jerusalem coming down out of God descending out of heaven; thus the stones being changed again.

I have a CD series on this which entails several hours; with a view of glorification for the present church...e-mail Angela@DennisBeard.org if interested. These CD's are from a view of the church still yet to enter into a higher glory than at present; thus the changing of the order of the tribes. Dan changed his standard from an eagle to that of a serpent; for Dan is a serpent, he biteth the heels of the horse so that the rider falls back; Mahaneh-Dan (camp of Dan) which is behind Kirjath-jearim (City of towns, or world) same as Icariot...man of cities or man of the world... Ephraim is not a wise son, for he should not stay long in the breaking forth of children. Levi is added as to priesthood along with Jospeh who is a fruitful bough and Dan and Ephraim dropped.

God bless....

What is fascinating as well is that there are 12,000 from each of the twelve tribes listed in the 144,000 in Rev 7. And the foursquare city, New Jerusalem, is 12,000 furlongs in the shape of a cube. This is similar to the holiest of holies, which was a cube.

The dimensions given of the holiest place in the old testament was the length, breadth and width, the exact same dimensions given in the most holy place.

And in every cube there are 12 edges (not faces -- there are 6 faces). So you have 12,000 X 12,000 = 144,000 in the New Jerusalem. Same number as the saints in Rev 7! Both are the CHURCH!

Awesome God!

Good post Bro. Blume as always...

12 is the perfect government of God depicting the lunations or moons in different seasons of the Sun of righteousness Jesus (who had twelve disciples)...

one thousand is the perfected glory of a season in the believer's life and walk

rmd = east or eastward = work of the Holy Ghost
r=100
m=40
d=4

the wonder in heaven seen in Revelation 12 being a woman (the church) clothed with the sun (love for Jesus through the affections toward him, fervent love and heat that causes the harvest to grow); the moon in under her feet (feet is the preparation of the Gospel, the experience of the seasons of the LORD which the moon or lunations were signs denoting times); with a crown of 12 stars (stars being knowledges of good and truth in the perfect government and things of God) who travailed in pain and birthed a manchild who was caught up to God and to His throne...the church coming unto a perfect man...unto the measure of the fullness of Christ...

the sealing of these tribes is a tahv, the last letter of the Hebrew Aleph-Beit being salvation to preserve her seed from the four winds who are about to hurt the earth (the external church) which will separate the chaff from the wheat...not one grain will fall to the ground...for God will keep and save all that are His
