"An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the Lord for ever." (Deut.23.3) The Spirit uses in the verse an additional safeguard,'forever' to lay Jesus Christ as the authority. He that despises the Son despises the Father as well. "For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: that all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him."(Jn.5.22-24)
It is thus judgment of Egypt and so shall be in the case of Jerusalem. The river Euphrates shall be dried up so the action of Gog and Magog works at two levels in mid-air or Up and Down and across. "And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,/And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea./And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them."(Rev.20.7-9)
When does the day of regeneration or the Millennial reign begin according to the everlasting Covenant? Is it not the now'? We walk not by sight but by faith and we walk as Abraham did, "Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:
15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee."
