Unbelievable Bible Stories You Didn't Know Existed!

A Giant Angel of Destruction? A character granted Super Speed? A Story of Group Teleportation?

Did anyone know all five stories? And can someone explain number 3 to me? 😅

The story of a prophet reminds me of the nature of a God. God never lies. If there would be someone on the road that would give the guy the meal - He would mention it. But He didn't. Instead, the young man believed someone claiming to hear the word of God and being His prohpet. Imagine Jesus encountering someone saying "Hey, I just spoke with your Father and He said you actually don't need to die. That was a test and you completed it...." Remember in Matthew 16:22-28 when Jesus actually rebuked Peter for saying "Those things will never happen to you..."(Jesus was explaining that He needs to go to Jerusalem, be mocked and get killed). Perhaps this story is a reminder for us Christians to TRUST our God, instead of believing someone who claims there is another encounter of Jesus, angels or another way of salvation despite Jesus... This gives me chills even when I'm writing this... such a deep message.

Super speed - Elijah
Super strength - Samson
Teleportation - Philip
Telepathy - Jesus

I mean, I knew all these powers were there but it's still so cool and refreshing every time😍

Hot take. #3 is about Jesus and his death. The man of God was from the tribe of Judah (like Jesus) and spoke against the Jewish leaders of his time (like Jesus). He healed the withered hand of the man that tried to seize him, just like Jesus healed the ear of the guard that tried to seize him. When he healed people they wanted to lift him up and reward him. But the man refused and said he was on a mission from God. Just like Jesus did when they kept trying to make him king. He got his bread and water from God, not man, and was to make a new path. The old prophet was the Pharisee’s of his time - although he used to hear from God, he used his position to lie and ended up getting the man of God killed for his sin. He was killed by a lion, symbolising God’s judgement, whilst riding a donkey, symbolising God’s humility like Jesus riding into Jerusalem. And his death was a clear sign to all that witnessed it, with the lion and donkey standing in juxtaposition, both symbolically and even literally with the two men on the cross (one accusing him and the other humbly recognising him). The old prophet then gets his body and buries him in his own tomb, symbolising that his death was in the place of the old prophet and reinforced by the fact he requested to be buried with him (again this literally happened to Jesus and figuratively represents our death with him). In the end what the man says comes to pass and the altar is destroyed, just like Jerusalem was in AD70 like Jesus claimed before they killed him.

Standing between heaven and earth could mean floating in the air and his sword "over" Jerusalem sounds more like a phrase, indicating he would be pointing toward Jerusalem.

And yet... We tend to imagine angels as human-like, and there are plenty of such descriptions, but who knows? But to me, a giant angel isn't the first indication I get from the text. The place I understand the Bible depicting a giant angel is in Revelation - the one standing both on shore and stepping in the sea.

I think the transition from a false profet to a real one is saying how God can still use people who arent profits to prophesize. Showing that he can do all things with you even if you are a non believer

Hi, I want to tell you that The Lord convicted me to become a member, so let this be a confirmation that this is good.

“God is above time, space and matter.” - I think this line kind of sums up all our doubts when people come at Christians from a scientific viewpoint. If God is the creator he has the power to manipulate the laws of just how a coder has the power to make changes to a game he created. Naturally yes there are things that are possible and things that are not possible but with the creator/coder everything is possible.

The boat teleportation implies that if everyone accepts the lord with them, that means they are safe as the lord is with them. This also applies to modern times that if you have the lord within you, all the problems and dangers will subside and eventually bring you to safety. Thanks be to God

Hey youngs! If you want to keep your faith. 3 tips.
1. Music that is good for you, either instrumental or christian based. Im a christian millennial so i love the 2000s music movement of Christianity then.
2. Read or watch bible related content as much as you can. Before you sleep. I use bible asmr or spoken word bible and turn the volume down.
3. Slowly but surely take away all the things that dont serve the Lord or you. Talk to leaders, find verses or even prophets who you relate to.
REMEMBER. GOD LOVES YOU AND HE EXTENDED HIS RIGHT HAND FOR US. AMEN

Sometimes the most high reveals different directions to young people you have to have faith and follow the path that the most high has given you, it's your assignment. Obey what the most high has assigned you to do not the belief or traditions of the past. ( For example your assignment might be teaching on YouTube using cartoons many people don't understand this but this is the most high way to work through you) Hallelujah 🙌🏾 praise Jah

The false and young prophet story reminded me of the verse that says “let God be true and every man a liar”

[Dario]

I believe the issue with the young prophet story is that he did not receive nor seek confirmation from the Lord over the words of the old prophet. He trusted the word of a man he didn't know over the word he directly received from God.

There's a 6th story everyone misses. The story of Lot and what the angels did while at his home. When they stretched their hands forth and magically pulled Lot into the house and closed the door behind him. The Bible clearly states that not only were they standing in the middle of the room, NOT next to the door, but that everyone was both astounded and afraid of the seemingly magical act

[joshuavitales-lanuza]

#3 is a story cautioning us about peer pressure when we've been given a command from God. The focus was on the young prophet's obedience, NOT the old prophet's lie. Matthew 18:7 tells us that temptation is necessary. This man's mission needed to be challenged, and the old prophet was the guy to do it. God will judge him for his sin, because Matthew 18:7 also condemns those who tempt others, but God judged the young prophet because he disobeyed a direct command from God to him specifically, and that kind of sin could not go unpunished. The old prophet escaped by a loophole, but...Judgment Day is still coming, and he will not escape then.

9:28 Meaning: declared prophets are not His only tools or His only way of doing things

[davida]

That verse could be interpreted as an angel in mid air standing (kind of like Superman when he's just watching)?

[theguywhoasked]

Maybe the prophet story is about the ignorance of the young prophet who followed the old one after being told to do something that didn’t match what God told him to do?

A lot of people forget when Jesus Christ was being pushed to the edge of the cliff he transformed into mist and went through the crowd and 2 men on the hill next to the cliff saw this and Jesus noticed them notice him so he flashed them over to him and they started to follow Jesus Christ on his journey.
