PSALM 2:1-3 – Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thi
ng? [2] The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, [3] Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
Since I have already exposited on verses 1 and 2 in Part 1, I will only include three sections of Scripture I did not use in Part I, which refer to “his anointed” in verse 2.
Psalm 45:6,7 – Thy THRONE, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. [7] Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath ANOINTED thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
Revelation 3:19-22 – As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. [20] Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. [21] To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my THRONE, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his THRONE. [22] He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
John 14:20 – At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and
I in you.
John 10:17,18 – Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. [18] No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself.
I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
John 10:30,31 – I and my Father are one.
[31] Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
John 1:32-41 – And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. [33] And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. [34] And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.
[35] Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples; [36] And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! [37] And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
[38] Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou? [39] He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour. [40] One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. [41] He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
PSALM 2:3 – Let us break THEIR bands asunder, and cast away
THEIR cords from us.
There is only one God, who has fulfilled three offices in his dealings with man as (1) The Holy Father, (2) The Holy Son, and (3) The Holy Spirit.
John 1:1-3 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
God made the first Garden of Eden man in the image of the man Christ Jesus, who God knew he would one day take on himself as the body of the second Adam. The first Adam was made a living sinless soul who later sinned, but the last Adam was made a Quickening God-man, who never sinned in body, soul, or flesh.
Genesis 1:26 – And God said, Let US make man in our image, after OUR likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
I Corithians 15:45 – And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
John 10:18 – No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
John 11:25,26,35 – Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: [26] And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? [35] Jesus wept.
PSALM 2:3 – Let us break their BANDS asunder, and cast away their CORDS from us.
Kings and rulers want to break the bands of love God has on his children and the control he has over his own creation. They want to cast away the cords that bind our sacrifices that now hold our sacrifices we offer to the stone which the builders rejected.
Hosea 11:1-4 – When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. [2] As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images. [3] I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. [4] I DREW THEM WITH CORDS OF A MAN, WITH BANDS OF LOVE: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them.
I Peter 2:4,5 – To whom coming, as unto a living STONE, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, [5] Ye also, as lively STONES, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, TO OFFER UP SPIRITUAL SACRIFICES, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
Psalm 118:22-29 – The STONE which the builders refused is become the HEAD STONE of the corner. [23] This is the Lord’s doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. [24] This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
[25] Save now, I beseech thee, O Lord: O Lord, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
[26] Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord: we have blessed you out of the house of the Lord. [27] God is the Lord, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with CORDS, even unto the horns of the altar. [28] Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee. [29] O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
1 Peter 2:6-10 – Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner STONE, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. [7] Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, [8] And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. [9] But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: [10] Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
And in the days of the 10 kings representing the 10 toes that are nations who follow the Antichrist, the STONE that falls on the toes of the great statue of Daniel will crush the feet of clay and iron, such that the statue will fall, and the Kingdom of God will replace all world kingdoms, past, present, and future.
Daniel 2:44-45 – And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
[45] Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and
the interpretation thereof sure.
Revelation 11:15,18 – And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. [18] And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
