Relationship with God as The Bridegroom — 2 Comments

  1. RAPE is a strong word. I’ve never looked it up before so I did in Online Etymology. Here it is:
    rape (v.)
    late 14c., “seize prey; abduct, take by force,” from rape (n.) and from Anglo-French raper (Old French rapir) “to seize, abduct,” a legal term, probably from past participle of Latin rapere “seize, carry off by force, abduct” (see rapid).

    Latin rapere was used for “sexually violate,” but only very rarely; the usual Latin word being stuprare “to defile, ravish, violate,” related to stuprum (n.), literally “disgrace.” Meaning “to abduct (a woman), ravish;” also “seduce (a man)” is from early 15c. in English. Related: Raped; raping. Uncertain connection to Low German and Dutch rapen in the same sense.

    As you can see in the above the sexual meaning came later. Another thing that caught my attention is the Latin word RAPE comes from, i.e. RAPERE. It just so happens that our Word RAPTURE comes from this Latin word that is used in the Latin Vulgate to translate the Greek word HARPAZO G726 found in 1Thess 4:17 and Rev 12:5.

    Now we know that to those loving God all things, works together The God, INTO Good and to those being called according to purpose> so the Greek, Rom 8:28.

  2. Praise God! God bless you, Sister Geraldine, praying all is well in the Lord Jesus! Your post always get my attention, but this is probably the 2nd time in which I left a comment. I sincerely and truly believe that something is about to take place. Demonic forces have been attacking me from different angles, yet I take a stand, believing, trusting in the Lord Jesus to be my “Everything”, even when it pains my heart and soul by these attacks, from my next door neighbors literally banging furniture and other objects against the wall in order to my attention, to get a rise of anger out of me and they have been doing this for a while now.

    I also get attacked by cars blowing their horns, speeding violently pas me when crossing the street, satan using random people when out in public to literally stalk me. I know this just means, I need to fully submit everything over to the Lord, not having experienced anything such as this. Some of these attacks have been on the rise for over 7 years.

    Thank you, for sharing this post, I will take heed, embracing this message.
