Could it be that Nimrod and others building a tower were not building a physical tower but a spiritual tower, climbing up the spiritual ladder and were getting up so high that they began ro see thay "Yahweh" was just another god who prided himself on being the "Most High" yet he is known to have a consort named Asherah. Could it be they got so high they saw another who was above and before "Yahweh" came about, who was without name, whose name was incomprehensible, but later referred as "The Father of Lights," Maybe they were gathering knowledge they should not have had so early bc it simply wasnt time for that aspect or revelation to be revealed at that time["Nimrod ran ahead, and was a mighty hunter BEFORE the Lord , he ran ahead of his guide and sought to figure a way into the heavenly realm himself"] New Testament never referred to "Yahweh" never, only "The Father. " But having gone thru all those ages the Stone Age, Iron Age, Industrial Age and now the Technological Age, now the truth will be uncovered and revealed bc of the flow of information online. We will all soon see the bigger picture and understand what is going on here and why we are here. Yet the Truth is in Jesus Christ, who is the way and the Life, so all must "come unto" him and ASK him for the truth of whats really going on, ask Him to open your eyes to understand the mysteries of the scriptures and your purpose and role in it all here in your own generation.

[@J-Hue]

The Shasu in question are the Israelites. The term was a broader term for shepards/farm hands. Joseph told his brothers to tell the Egyptians they were shepards. It's also suspected by some archeologist/historians that the oldest evidence of the name for the tribe of Judah, or "Yahudah" was found in a partly old Paleo Hebrew artifact in Egypt which they attributed to that group of Shasu. They suspect that it was "Yahudah" the tribe and not the God of Israel "Yahuah" because, despite the last half of the artifact being damaged and illegible, what remained appeared to have enough form to sho the first part of the symbol for the simple transliteration as the letter "d" in "Yahudah." This is important, because scripture says that God only gave His name to Israel after they fled Egypt, not at anytime before. Also, the tribes were very small entering Egypt vs how large they'd become before leaving. So Judah/Yahudah being the most numerous tribe or one of the 2 most numerous tribes and also eventually the lead and kingly tribe, it would make sense that their tribal name would begin to surface first in the records found. Also, an crucial abridged element, there is a member of the Pharoah's family who was discovered who was called Amenmesse. If you're familiar with how English versions of the names translate to suspected the old pronunciation in Egyptian and Hebrew (like how Edom is sounded more like "Ahdohm" or "Adoomah" and was similar in Hebrew) then it should be clear that "Amenmesse" is sounded more like "Ahmahn Mahssah or Mahsshah." This is more akin to the Hebrew Mosheh. Long story short, Amenmesse was said to have been part of the royal family, but not expressly a child of the preceeding Pharoah. He was only expressely linked in a familial way to a woman in the family, most like that Pharoah's daughter. Essentially, he's the son of the woman in the royal family if Pharoah(I forget some of the details), but with no known father, like Moses. Some accounts say he ruled Kush, like Moses, and that he wound up at odds with the successive pharoah, from his generation when he had an Egyptian slave driver killed over his excessive brutality toward some Shasu slaves. Ultimately Amenmesse, according to some accounts, left Egypt with a large number of Shasu slavesand was never found again, like Moses. Again, Shasu was the term by the Egyptians. Since, it's their society, their name for the slaves and what not of their society will be the dominant terms found in their records. However, 1 group of those Shasu, specifically the ones in question here, were the Israelites. It's the same way that when the current Western European nations who rule the world began to reclaim Europe from the Moors and the Jews who accompanied them in the 1200's/1300's, they called the Jews of Europe "negro"/"negroes." They then dubbed all Jews/Israelites they found around the world during their conquests as "negroes," and, in an expressed intent to take them from their heritage and remove their adherence to the torah in place of forced obedience to Christianity through slavery and veing given new Christian names to where destroy their identieis as Israel, all that was left was for them in time was the name "negro." And that name stayed on the Jews even up until the last 60 or so years before it began to change to other terms like "Afro American," Afro Craribbean," "Afro Latino," etc. and even "black." for Jews/Israelites in the Western Hemisphere, many of whom have been so long disconnected from their history through centuries of brutality intended to do just that, that most don't know their identities and are unwilling to reclaim it out of fear, despite some in these communities never forgetting and leaving traces if that knowledge of their true identity in their art and what not.

You have a lot people claiming to worship Jesus, but they want power and control of a governmental system, to force morality on everyone by LAW. That's not of faith or the true Gospel of Christ. As if the gates of Hell could really prevail against Christ if they didn't have power of Government.

[@J-Hue]

​@@lynndunning1545 Trump, like the rest of the US's and the world's Western European people are descendants of Esau. Esau was not a good man. He was always a violent, deceitful man who found no value in God's law and sought even to this day to usurp all, even God's laws with his own way in which the sons of Esau call a, "New World Order." Esau's God is the devil. He twisted the word of God to entice the world to sin, convincing them that God does not require the law to be kept despite Christ and all his disciples stating that the law is required to be kept for salvation. Edau wants to rule the world and even the heavens at all costs, as evidenced by his ventures into what the world calls outer space. This is his ultimate sin and folly and why God says he hates him so much. Their is no end to his wickedness and he ultimately wishes to unsent even God. For this, Esau and the world he has buikt will be stricken down starting with his own tools of destruction being turned on him, before God resets the world with His people in rulership to lead in righteousness with justice and prosperity for all peoples instead of the wicked, warmongers ways of Esau who trampled nations to no end for his own gain.

"Ja ennen kaikkea tietäkää se, että viimeisinä päivinä tulee pilkkapuheinensa pilkkaajia, jotka vaeltavat omien himojensa mukaan ja sanovat: "Missä on lupaus hänen tulemuksestansa? Sillä onhan siitä asti, kuin isät nukkuivat pois, kaikki pysynyt, niinkuin se on ollut luomakunnan alusta. Sillä tietensä he eivät ole tietävinään, että taivaat ja samoin maa, vedestä ja veden kautta rakennettu, olivat ikivanhastaan olemassa Jumalan sanan voimasta, ja että niiden kautta silloinen maailma hukkui vedenpaisumukseen. Mutta nykyiset taivaat ja maa ovat samalla sanalla talletetut tulelle, säästetyt jumalattomain ihmisten tuomion ja kadotuksen päivään. Mutta tämä yksi älköön olko teiltä, rakkaani, salassa, että "yksi päivä on Herran edessä niinkuin tuhat vuotta ja tuhat vuotta niinkuin yksi päivä”. Ei Herra viivytä lupauksensa täyttämistä, niinkuin muutamat pitävät sitä viivyttelemisenä, vaan hän on pitkämielinen teitä kohtaan, sillä hän ei tahdo, että kukaan hukkuu, vaan että kaikki tulevat parannukseen. Mutta Herran päivä on tuleva niinkuin varas, ja silloin taivaat katoavat pauhinalla, ja alkuaineet kuumuudesta hajoavat, ja maa ja kaikki, mitä siihen on tehty, palavat. Kun siis nämä kaikki näin hajoavat, millaisia tuleekaan teidän olla pyhässä vaelluksessa ja jumalisuudessa, teidän, jotka odotatte ja joudutatte Jumalan päivän tulemista, jonka voimasta taivaat hehkuen hajoavat ja alkuaineet kuumuudesta sulavat! Mutta hänen lupauksensa mukaan me odotamme uusia taivaita ja uutta maata, joissa vanhurskaus asuu."- 2. Pietarin kirje 3:3-13 - Raamattu 1933/1938

The Persians also worshipped a "God of Heaven", Ahura Mazda, who was the Creator and who was opposed to a demonic entity, called Amhiran. According to their tale, Amhiran was cast out of Heaven by Ahura Mazda and he now lives on the Earth, seeking to enslave and deceive people. Amhiran's primary tool in this endeavour is technology, so modern adherents to this religion are known for their rejection of modern tech, including internal combustion engines and all computerised devices.

This is sort of a nonsensical argument. It says before Israel. These people aren't before Israel. Abraham is the start of Israel. The countries east and south of his lands were relatives of his. Ammon and Moab were Lot's (Abraham's nephew) children from his daughters. They lived in the plains east of Abraham. Esau (Abraham's grandson) founded Edom southeast of Israel and married Ishmael's granddaughter Mahalath. Ishmael (Abraham's son from Hagar) was likely the Shasu as his mother chose a wife for him from Egypt, He lived closest to them. He likely lived near the wilderness of Sin/Zin or the wilderness of Shur west of Sin/Zin which was south of Israel or in the area of Kadesh. The Kenites and Timnites were Esau's grandchildren. As was Amalek the founder of the Amalekites who lived southwest of Israel and also might be the Shasu. They were the first nation to attack Israel after their return from Egypt. Midianites were Abraham's children from Keturah. One of their sons is named Midian. The countries/people groups were named after the head man. All of these people were the offspring of Abraham or his Nephew and would have been followers of God as they followed the God of their fathers. A better argument for followers of God prior to Abraham would be Melchizadek, but he and his people are not discussed and little is known about them as they inhabited Salem (Jerusalem) when Abraham came to Canaan. Melchizadek's people may have been early Jebusites, Jebu/salem or Jerusalem, being their chief city. They may have predated them and been supplanted by the Jebusites. But if they were no mention is made of it. I think its more likely that they Jebusites were originally followers of God as described under Melchizadek, and they later fell away to paganism or intermarried with pagans who were tainted by the nephilim bloodline (children of Anak). When Melchizadek meets Abraham it is right after the battle between Sumerian Kings and the giants living around Sodom and Gomorrah. This was where Lot settled and was next door to Melchizadek and Abraham.
