This means we have a mingling of the two sects both with their skull caps. We must understand that these two satanic religions are far more closely intertwined than many realise — proving that The Devil is not divided.
They both have a common enemy in Yashua Messiah — The Way and His followers and that has made them forget most of their differences for the time being. Islamic antichrist 1 John 2: 22 Mecca 22 Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ?
This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.
Joel 3 tells us clearly that the war against Israel involves only the surrounding nations of Israel. Bring down, O Lord, Your mighty ones. Come, tread, for the wine press is full; The vats overflow, for their wickedness is great. For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. But the Lord is a refuge for His people And a stronghold to the sons of Israel. So Jerusalem will be holy, And strangers will pass through it no more.
For behold, Your enemies make an uproar, And those who hate You have exalted themselves. Were Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Jews? Royal Judahites and the Canaanite Jews explained. Yashua Messiah Jesus Christ was not a Jew. The Jews are The Tares!
They journeyed from Greater Scythia by way of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Pillars of Hercules, and dwelt for a long course of time in Spain among the most savage tribes, but nowhere could they be subdued by any race, however barbarous.
Thence they came, twelve hundred years after the people of Israel crossed the Red Sea, to their home in the west where they still live today. Daniel KJV O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.
The British Gaelic and Old English tongues are Hebrew in origin, this has been proven by linguistic scholars. Deuteronomy KJV His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.
The Iberian peninsular also gets its name from Eber. The first Christian churches planted outside of Jerusalem were in Britain in 35 AC and there is archaeological evidence to prove it. These churches were planted by Joseph of Arimathea and his small band of saints. This proves the Israelites were in Britain.
I would have to agree with whirlwind on this one. We in this present world are outside the heavenly camp. Just as Paul showed in Hebrews that we like Jesus must suffer outside the camp, bearing his reproach. We are told in verse 14 that here on this earth we have no more continuing city, but we seek one to come. If you look to the law of sacrifice you will see the outer part of the flesh of the animal was sacrificed outside the camp.
In the same manner we must put off that fleshy man outside the heavenly camp. This proof of being outside the gates of Jerusalem was shown in Revelation where we see the court without the Temple, and the holy city was not to be measured because it was given into the hands of the Gentiles to tread under foot. This earthly Jerusalem was shown in Galations which is still in bondage with her people. But the heavenly Jerusalem is shown in verse 26 which is above, and is free, and is the mother of us all who are born of the Spirit.
Jun 19, 6. Hebrews Wherefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered without the gate. Jun 20, 7. This is what I believe. The "Great City" where the bodies of the 2 witnesses lay refers to Jerusalem.
However, I do not believe it is the physical Jerusalem. I believe it is the idolatrous religion of the pharisees and the scribes which is now spread all over the world. The religion of self righteousness. Thinking that they can be justified by keeping the law of Moses and judging others who do not.
Religion without faith. Jerusalem is called Sodom because of wickedness and immorality which comes when people are self righteous and are under the bondage of the law. See Romans 1. It is called Egypt because people under the Mosaic law are bound from righteousness. They must work hard and yet that does not earn them righteousness. The Law of Moses makes people to know they are sinners in need of a savior but hypocrites think by observing a few rules in it they are righteous and that is how they form the "Great City" Jerusalem.
Thanks JamesDAlbright for the Worderful scriptures. Acts I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

Sodom and Egypt fell under the Lord's judgment; Sodom for all eternity and Egypt under numerous times. Jerusalem had incurred God's wrath in the same manner as Sodom and Egypt, as she had participated in the sins both were guilty of; hence figuratively she could be called the same as them.
The difference is "til" Matt. Egypt represents power, luxury and influence. It is symbolically describing a nation which influences much of the world and inspires its own materialistic image.
The pyramid is a great symbol to illustrate this point; a system of control that is supported by contributing masses on the bottom and controlled by the powerful leaders at the top. In between the two, you have the middle class.
Egypt represents a powerful international economy. Egypt is also notorious for false religions and the practice of worshiping numerous gods. Sodom represents an empire which inspires sexual immorality. Backed by the power of a materialistic empire with the likes of Egypt, perversion and sin is a widespread attribute in the place the author describes as "Sodom and Egypt". Together, "Sodom and "Egypt" depict a pagan nation with both economical and spiritual power.
This term reflects a nation with the characteristics of the two. It is empirically powerful as well as sinfully benevolent. Looking at the destruction of both Sodom and Egypt, you can easily assume this place is very much in God's disfavor. In Egypt, the people worshiped the host of heaven and fallen angels masquerading as gods. They worshiped the tree of knowledge of good and evil. They worshiped Osiris, Isis, and Baal.
In Sodom, they worshiped Belial and practiced rape and homosexuality. The city in Revelation that is called "Egypt and Sodom" spiritually is a city that embraces false god worship, angel worship homosexuality, Islam, JW, SDA, Hinduism, atheism, zodiac, Greek myths, Roman myths, witchcraft, masonic teachings, Catholicism, Buddhism, Scientology, and all other false teaching such as materialism, etc Lucifer never finished the city and the tower of Babel.
The city in Revelation is the finished Babel, also known as spiritual Egypt and Sodom, where you can do all that you imagine to do. Both Egypt and Sodom deny our Lord and savior Jesus, as most of the world does. Every false teaching has its own version of Jesus. Jesus said "many shall come in my name saying Christ is here or there.
