If you want to understand PTN ( prophetic typological narrations) write your testimony.
Then write your PTN.
YOU WILL SEE A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!
When you read your Bible you need to start reading all scripture as though the writer is writing the PTN of everything in the story! The characters, the moral of the story, the words, the phrases, the application of why what is being said to whom, when and where. For example, the story of Moses.
1. What does Moses mean?
It meant “pull out” or here in the story with Moses “to be saved out of the water” and the cluthes of Satan ( Pharaoh Seti).
2. Was Moses put in a baby basket and saved from death? ( it was not just a basket but a waterproof basket like the Arc! He was saved like Noah. He becomes a Godly leader like Noah. He was rescued “out of the water”. All of these thoughts are discerning spiritual with spiritual! Not one thought or one word should be read without taking it and processing it through the data base of Genesis through Revelations! However, if it is in Exodus do not go to Roman’s to check it. It should never contradict the word of God given after the time of the event; but, like Exodus 1:8 “Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.”
Exodus 1:8 KJV, Joseph is what to what?
You should immediately study and remind yourself of all the stories relating to Joseph with Pharaoh ( which happens to be one who accepted God because he was a different Pharaoh; but, also Joseph came from Jacob! What about “Jacob”? His name just so happens to actually be “Isreal”! So, the second Pharaoh mentioning “Isrealites” in any manner KNOWS WHO JOSEPH IS!! If I say “JELLO” you automatically know what is gelatin. The word association isn’t meant to be a word upon word study. Each word should be a BIBLE STUDY! Each word should be a “YAHWEH” study! How do the words “SHINE LIGHT/TRUTH upon YAHWEH whom the story is about! Jesus tells the story Moses to bring glory to him, not Moses! The Bible is an autobiography about himself.
When you write a testimony it is about you becoming Christ’s child giving him glory about what HE HAS DONE FOR YOU. THEN, when you write your PTN, like Paul writing about Paul or anyone, the characters become the extension even further about Jesus. In other words, your PTN will show what miracles were manifested AFTER YOU BECAME EMPOWERED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT! The Holy Spirit only lifts the name of Jesus, NOT YOU! The Bible stories are the Holy Spirit inspired word of God. That is what that means. Jesus swims to the light house and turns on the light and this you dodge a huge rock out in the ocean and save 100 people on your boat you happen to be steering. Did you save them? Did Jesus save them? Jesus did the work and you “saw the truth because of him” and he was able to use you in continuing his work! God manifest his work in us. We cursed the original work of God that did not require any further improvements. When Adam sinned, he made God separate his perfect work and required Adam to work by eschewing evil, obeying his commandments, and praying for truth that sin veiled him from. Sanctification became a process of getting back to God where all things remain perfect. Sanctification IS A WORK. Steering the boat is a work. A human can NOT steer into safety in darkness which is all places without Jesus’ work of sacrifice.
A person thus can say, “I saved them”. But, it is because You saved them “by and from” giving them the light of Jesus. When each person “unbinds” ( Matt. 16:19)a lost person from hell that is what he is doing ( the great commission). It will be Jesus alone who puts the person’s saving efforts to fire and rewards thus with a righteous heart for those efforts.
3. Joseph was absolutely the only “book” (by generational story telling) which a person should use when discerning what God meant when he said “Pharaoh did not know him”. You have to come to the spiritual conclusion Pharaoh hated Joseph’s God and did not accept him as his Lord ( that is a spiritual reference to what God says it means “to know somebody”- it is spiritually understood if a person knows Joseph, he would be implying he also worshipped the God whom every human feared known as the Isrealite ( Joseph’s) God! Don’t research scripture of any kind in the future. Look at the foundation already laid down in history referring to Joseph.
