Exodus 20:25 and the Great Pyramid

{Exodus 20:24} You shall make an altar of earth for me, and shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your cattle. In every place where I record my name I will come to you and I will bless you.
{Exodus 20:25} If you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of cut stones; for if you lift up your tool on it, you have polluted it. -- RLIV.
{Isaiah 19:19} In that day, there will be an altar to Jehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to Jehovah at its border.
{Isaiah 19:20} It will be for a sign and for a witness to Jehovah of Hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to Jehovah because of oppressors, and he will send them a savior and a defender, and he will deliver them. -- RLIV.
Some have proposed that there is something in Exodus 20:25 that would mean that the Great Pyramid is not the "altar" that is spoken of in Isaiah 19:19. Evidently, what is being assumed is that Exodus 20:25 forbids any altar to Jehovah to be cut out by stone.
In reality, Exodus 20:25 is not at all speaking of the same thing as spoken of in Isaiah 19:19. The altar being spoken of in Exodus 20:25 is in the land of Israel; the altar spoken of in Isaiah 19:19 is in the land of Egypt. The altar spoken of in Exodus 20:25 is for sacrfices of animals; the altar in Isaiah 19:19 is not stated ti be for sacrifice of animals, nor are any sacrifices at all mentioned in connection with the altar in Isaiah 19:19, although it is foretold that Egypt would offer sacrifices to Jehovah in verse 21; still it does not say that these sacrifices will be animal sacrifices, as spoken of in Exodus 20:24,25. The altar in Exodus 20:25 does not serve as a sign and witness of Jehovah in Egypt; the one in Isaiah 19:19 does serve as a sign and witness of Jehovah. The instructions concerning the "altar" in Exodus 20:25 is part of the law covenant made with Israel; there is nothing in Isaiah 19:19 or its context that would link the altar in Egypt with the Law Covenant that was made with the children of Israel. In short, except for the word "altar", there is nothing in Exodus 20:25 that is related to the sign and witness of Jehovah spoken of in Isaiah 19:19,20. Thus, any thought that Exodus 20:25 offers anything that forbids the Great Pyramid from being the altar to Jehovah has to be imagined, assumed, added to, and read into what is stated.
We offer a quote from Brother Todd Alexander:
In his prophecy Isaiah does not speak about a sacrificial ­altar where animal sacrifices were made, but of a holy place where God would demonstrate something more powerful. A pillar (Hebrew: memorial stone) in the middle of Egypt yet also at its border (“Giza” in Egyptian means “border”). Isaiah says that this Memorial Stone will be a sign (Hebrew: signal) and a witness (Hebrew: recorder, testimony) validating the God of the Bible. It will be a physical device that will demonstrate God’s wisdom and power, recorded in ancient times and revealed in our day.
I might add that, while there a few today who have receive a limited knowledge concerning the Great Pyramid, we expect that the real revealing of all contained in the God's Witness is Egypt will not be revealed until after Satan has been abyssed so that his blinding influence will no longer be upon mankind. -- 2 Corinthians 4:4; Revelation 12:9; 20:3.
Concerning this, Brother W. J. Siekman stated:
Disregarded by the world and even "wounded in the house of its friends," the great pyramid yet remains a tremendous corroborative testimony to the truth of God’s Word. He who has devoted sufficient study to have really grasped its teachings will not scoff at this altar in the midst of the land of Egypt and pillar at the border thereof? (Isa. 19:19). Its purpose is to stop the mouths of the wise during the Millennium, who desire now to know God not by faith but by "tools of measurement." Though their attention has been called to the Pyramid’s testimony, and that by men of their own, yet they have chosen to scoff and deride, though the "very stones cry out" of the existence of a Wisdom and Omnipotence they know not. How vain will be counted the wisdom of man in that day when God shall bring all things to light.
=====================
One says that the scripture in Exodus 20:25 refers to any altar, because it says "if you make an altar". The direct reference, however, is to making an altar for the offering of sacrifices under the law.

The Great Pyramid and Demonic Occultism

By Ronald R. Day, Sr.
A Restoration Light (ResLight) Bible Study


Many claim that the Great Pyramid itself is of the occult; that it was constructed for purposes  of astrology, spiritism, and/or other heathen occult practices. Of course, one can cite many works that would agree with this. However, this does not mean that it is so. Despite any usage that has been made of the Great Pyramid, the evidence does give reason to believe it was designed by Jehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Isaiah 19:14 - Jehovah has mixed a perverse spirit in her midst; and they led astray Egypt in all his work; as a drunkard strays in his vomit. -- Green's Literal.
.
The fact that Egypt (as well as other nations) has been given a spirit of perverseness, so as to pervert God's works for use in spiritism and idol worship does not in reality pervert what God has done any place in the entire earth. The land called "Egypt" is still part of the earth that Jehovah himself made; it still belongs to Jehovah and it is not outside of what Jehovah has created.

Eventually, God assures by means of the Bible that Egypt will know and worship Jehovah, as will all nations in the whole earth, in that day when Jehovah comes to judge the earth by means of the one he has ordained. -- Psalm 96:13; 98:9; Isaiah 40:10; 62:11; Luke 1:32,35; John 5:22,23; Acts 10:42; 17:31; Romans 2:16; 1 Corinthians 4:5; Revelation 22:12.

Isaiah 19:21 - And Jehovah shall be known to Egypt. Egypt shall know Jehovah in that day. And they shall offer sacrifice and offering, and vow a vow to Jehovah, and repay it .  -- Green's Literal.

Psalms 96:10 - Say among the nations, Jehovah reigns; and, The world shall be established, it shall not be moved; He shall judge the peoples in uprightness.
Psalms 96:11- Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar, and the fullness of it.
Psalms 96:12 - Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it; then the trees of the forest shall rejoice
Psalms 96:13 - before Jehovah; for He comes; for He comes to judge the earth; He shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with His faithfulness. -- Green's Literal.

Psalms 98:4-9 - Make a joyful noise to Jehovah, all the earth; break out and rejoice and sing praise.[5] Sing praise to Jehovah with the lyre; with the lyre and the voice of a song.[6] With trumpets and the sound of a horn, make a joyful noise before Jehovah the King.[7] Let the sea roar, and the fullness of it; the world, and those who live in it.[8] Let the rivers clap their hands; let the heights shout for joy together,[9] before Jehovah; for He comes to judge the earth; with righteousness He shall judge the world, and the peoples in uprightness.  -- Green's Literal.


Acts 17:31 He [Jehovah] has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man [the seed of Abraham] whom he has ordained; whereof he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead. -- World English.

Genesis 22:18 In your [Abraham's] seed will all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice. -- World English.

Galatians 3:16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He doesn't say, "To seeds," as of many, but as of one, "To your seed," which is Christ.
Galatians 3:27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Galatians 3:29 If you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed and heirs according to promise. -- World English.

We believe that the Great Pyramid, however, still stands as a monument to Jehovah's great design for mankind, and will, in the "last day" come to be understood by Egypt and the world.

Isaiah 19:19 - In that day there is an altar to Jehovah In the midst of the land of Egypt, And a standing pillar near its border to Jehovah, -- Young's Literal.

While it is often claimed that Great Pyramid is of the occult, in actuality, it is more correct to say that the Great Pyramid has been corrupted for what could be said heathen occult practices. This, however, is true of many things God's has created, including his sun, moon, stars, constellations, and many plants, trees, and animals. The fact that any of these may be misused for occult practices does not make any of them actually "of the occult."
