Exodus - 21 - Exod 7:4-13 THE TERRIBLE MONSTER - URAEUS

  In this lesson we meet up with Uraeus - the terrible goddess of Egypt and the protector of the king, Pharaoh.  Pharaoh had Uraeus on his crown - a cobra.  The sacred beast of Uraeus is the serpent pictured as the cobra.  And so begins the awesome confrontation between God, the only God, and a man who said he was god, the Pharaoh.  It begins with the defeat of his protectress, the Cobra goddess, Uraeus.  How is she defeated?  Moreover, what else is God coming against when Moses and Aaron return to Pharaoh and Aaron throws down his staff and it becomes a serpent - not a snake - but a terrible lizard.  It seems as if God is inspiring Moses to picture the goddess Uraeus not just a snake but a terrible monster. Another topic we will discuss is the issue of does God judge nations or will God pour His wrath on a people group, a nation, for the collective evil the nation or the group as done.  If so what about the innocent that probably are part of the group? Will they suffer along with the evil ones in that culture?  The answers are critically important for us today.  Will God judge the USA for 62,000,000 babies aborted?  If we are innocent will we suffer also if He comes and pours His wrath upon us.  This is a difficult concept and must be studied.  What better place than ancient Egypt. I highly recommend you watch the videos, lesson 20 & 21 of this series.  They are entitled, "His Highness' Heavy Heart," and deals with the important question did God harden Pharaoh's heart.  Did God create this man for damnation and destruction?  What about us?  Are we predetermined for salvation and others for destruction?  To access these videos click on the link below and you will be at our You Tube Channel.  Search for the videos that are connected to the pictures below.   Link - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvcIXun2BQDIw6myuMPTvlWHUu9AJqXip   Rev.
