What happened in Egypt prefigures what will happen later.

 The Hebrews came out of Egypt 

with a mixed multitude of those 

who believed the signs and put the 

Passover lamb's blood on their doors. 


Christ is our Passover. When the wrath

of the Lamb comes, we who believe will 

be lifted out of the way, and the antichrist 

and his followers will be destroyed. 

Then Christ will continue descent to rule 

on earth we will be with Him. 


There is a lot of confusion between 

wrath and tribulation (not the same 

thing) or where we go in the rapture 

or catching away.  2 Thessalonians 

chapter 2 read in full ignoring whatever 

you were taught earlier, shows that 

Christ comes to end the tribulation. 


The most important thing to understand, 

however, is that what happened in Egypt

in Exodus, prefigures what is provided 

by the Blood of Christ in the future, He

is the Lamb of God Who takes away the

sin of the world. The Lamb slain from

the foundation of the world. 


Jesus is the King Who unites the priesthood

and kingship and will never die, He has

conquered death hell and the grave. Those Jews

who didn't follow Him couldn't wrap their minds

around the problem of a Messiah Who never dies 

and a suffering servant who dies. The two are one, 

there is a Resurrection that unites the two figures.


It is argued He didn't bring peace - THAT IS FOR

WHEN HE COMES BACK. First, He is collecting 

citizens of his kingdom who He rules over from Heaven,

church is an outpost of the Kingdom of Heaven

and foretaste of it, but it will become a universal 

physical reality someday, brought by Jesus Chtrist

not by us.


There is a direct relationship 

between Exodus and the end of this age.
