THE 12 SONS OF JACOB (ISRAEL) IS THE MYSTERY OF CHRIST JESUS.!!

Jacob had twelve(12) sons, and in their names put together was the gospel hidden but now revealed through it. Its so amazing how God hid all these wonderful truths inside simple names and stories.

Here are the names and their meanings:

NAMES MEANING
Reuben: _ Behold, A Son is born to us_
Simon: _ One who hears_
Levi: _ Attached_
Judah: _ Praise the Lord_
Dan: _ He judged_
Naphtali: _ My Struggle_
Gad: _ Good fortune_
Asher: _ Happiness_
Issachar: _ Reward_
Zebulun: _ Honor_
Joseph: _ Add to my family_
Benjamin: _ Son of righteousness_

When the names are joined together, this is what it says:

BEHOLD, A SON IS BORN UNTO US, ONE WHO HEARS US AND BECAME ATTACHED UNTO US. PRAISE THE LORD. HE JUDGED OUR STRUGGLES AND BROUGHT US GOOD FORTUNE, HAPPINESS, REWARD, HONOR; HE ADDED US TO HIS FAMILY AND CALLED US THE SONS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.

This completely blows one's mind when one discovers it. Jesus Christ is not just a mere name mentioned in sermons. Jesus is the content, the context, the text, the paragraph, the mark and the remark of the "Word of Truth ".
Jesus is the outline of the entire Bible. And His "scarlet thread" of redemption links & runs through the Bible!!!!!!!
