Q&A21 - PETRA AND ZION NATIONAL PARK

Q - I am enjoying reading the articles and have a lot more to read. I am pleased to see that you also have woken up to so many of the biblical truths that the "church" largely ignores or doesn't even know about, such as the Sabbath. Thank you for being bold to speak the truth. I look forward to reading much more at your site. I am very interested in reading more about the "American Petra". Could you please tell me where the idea for Petra being the wilderness refuge for Israel, as I cannot find anything referring to it in the Word?

May our Abba Father bless you in your studies, and please continue to share them with us.

A - Thank you so much for your encouragement and kind words. I have really enjoyed connecting the dots and being able to write about my findings. I have tried to honor Sabbath for several years now.

You asked about Petra. As far as I know, there is no mention of Petra in the Bible, but there may be inference to it. Matthew 24:16 mentions fleeing to the mountains, and Isaiah 35:7-8 mentions a highway which may refer to a highway being built in the Petra area during our present day. Another article with more Petra info. is Fulfillment of Time (http://nethernuggets.com/a-f/fulfillment_of_time.html). Zion National Park was also one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. I left a piece of my heart there!

Again, thank you for your gracious comments. I do welcome interaction, and hope you continue to enjoy the writings!
