Red Sea Smackdown

| In the book, The Great Inception, you know, Mike focuses on Mount Hermon and the Watchers and the sin that they brought to humanity, the things that they taught, the forbidden knowledge that they taught that we weren't supposed to know, and how it is connected to Babylon, which has become a symbol of occult wickedness, so powerful that it's a symbol of the end times one world religion, Mystery Babylon. | |
| In my book, I kind of take more of an overview and look at the importance of holy mountains in general. | |
| Mount Hermon was one. | |
| Of course, Mount Sinai, where God brought the Israelites right after Egypt. | |
| Mount Zion, where the ultimate battle will be fought, Armageddon. | |
| Mount Zephon, which is Baal's holy mountain. | |
| Backing up 1,500 years from the confrontation in Mount Hermon, the Red Sea crossing was a supernatural conflict, another smackdown, if you will, in the supernatural realm between God and Baal. | |
| Now, what was Baal doing in Egypt? | |
| I don't know, but Exodus 14 tells us that God told Moses as they were leading them out of Egypt, he was leading them out of Egypt, turn around. | |
| What? | |
| Turn around. | |
| Go back, camp at this place in front of a place called Baal-Zephon. | |
| And then, you know, after they camp there, the Egyptian army catches up. | |
| And then he, why do that? | |
| Yes, why? | |
| Well, Baal was the God of the people who ruled northern Egypt at that point in history. | |
| A people called the Hicks. | |
| This is where I bring in a lot of secular, peer-reviewed, mainstream history to show how it supports the Bible and the Bible as a record of this long war between God and these rebellious gods. | |
| Baal was the God of the people who ruled Egypt when the Israelites were there. | |
| Baal was the God who defeated the God of the sea. | |
| He was the patron god of sailors for over 1500. | |
| The Phoenicians, a thousand years later, were worshiping Baal because he protected them on their ocean voyages. | |
| So on the shore of the Red Sea, God tells the Israelites to turn around. | |
| And just imagine being the last guy in the line. | |
| I can see the chariot wheel dust coming behind us. | |
| And he has them camp all night in front of a place sacred to Baal on the shore of the Red Sea. | |
| And then in the morning, the waters part. | |
| Actually, it was still night, I guess. | |
| The Egyptians or the rulers of Egypt must have thought Baal had laid a trap for the Israelites. | |
| But they got to the other side. | |
| So they followed. | |
| Yes, the waters closed in. | |
| This wasn't just Israel being delivered from the hand of Pharaoh. | |
| This was God delivering Israel from the hand of Baal. | |
| Is God in your face again? | |
| Is God saying, devil, I'm defeating you? | |
