No child is a bastard, because all children were born by the WILL OF GOD. No baby is born without the Lord conceiving it. All children are 'Jesus babies' and therefore no child is above or below any other child. No heritage or blood lines elevates any child above or below the level of any other human child. They are all equal before the Lord, their Creator.

     Knowing this is why the children of Jacob, were all equal in receiving their inheritance despite the FACT that most of them came from women who were not Hebrew. Leah and Rachel were Jacob's wifes, but they literally gave these handmaidens or their female servants, to him, as secondary wifes. And yet their children by Jacob, were not considered bastards, but true sons, even ti today.

1. REUBEN Leah
2. SIMEON Leah
3. LEVI Leah
4. JUDAH Leah
5. DAN Rachel/Bilhah
6. NAPHTALI Rachel/Bilhah
7. GAD Leah/Zilpah
8. ASHER Leah/Zilpah
9. ISSACHAR Leah
10. ZEBULUN Leah
11. JOSEPH Rachel
12. BENJAMIN Rachel

     These were the twelve sons of Jacob (who later had his name changed to Israel). But as you might know, Joseph was chosen by the Lord to be over his brothers, and yet they became jealous when they found this out through Jacob's dreams ... and sold him into slavery in Egypt. There Joseph rose through the ranks to work for Potiphar, as his overseer. Got accused of raping his wife and hence falsely imprisoned before being delivered by the Pharoah. But what I didn't know until now, is that Joseph also had a foreign, non Hebrew wife, named Asenath, who was the daughter of Potiphera, a priest of Heliopolis.

     Outrageous, that from the family which put you into prison, you are given a daughter to wed, and that she is a priestess of
Heliopolis ..... A temple of the Egyptian Religion. And from her came Mannasseh and Ephraim, the final two tribes of Israel.

     That makes 13, as the tribe of Levi had no possession, as they were suppose to be full time priests to the Lord and for the Tabernacle. Hence, making the tribe of Joseph, split into two tribes ..... taking the place of the tribe of Levi who stayed inheritance-less in the center of the Encampment of the Lord.

                                                    
Harmonic Circle of Tribes

     But in our gathering, when we Christians shall be gathered, NOT the Jews This for a number of reasons, but simply stated try

(I mean it is absolutyerly ludicruous to think that trained faithful Christians will get raptured and delivered from trouble and leave a bunch of inexpereinced faithfless Jews to carry on through the Tribulation. Totally absurd, but that's what the vast
majority of escapism bias church Christians want to believe about the 144,000)

Revelation 7 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Rev 7:5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. Rev 7:6 Of the tribe of Aser [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses [were] sealed twelve thousand. Rev 7:7 Of the tribe of Simeon [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi [were]sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar [were] sealed twelve thousand. Rev 7:8 Of the tribe of Zabulon [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin [were] sealed twelve thousand

     And why is NOt the tribe of Dan mentioned, simply because the tribe of DAN has always been apostate, and from them shall the Anti-Christ arise. It being replaced along the border by the Tribe of Levi.

     This being interesting, for as mentioned earlier, our Priest/Priestess Lioness seems to come NOT from the tribe of Levi, which always ministered from the center of the encampment but from the tribe of Judah.... the Lion of LEO.

     Just a few thoughts for you, on the tribes, children, equality, and our end time LIONESS from the Tribe of Judah. For again, it is mentioned that BOTH of our Prophets shall have a fiery sickle of fire come from their mouth, so obviously both are from the tribe of Judah.
