INTRODUCTION
We've all seen the gay pride rainbow flags everywhere these days, right?But how does it compare to God's rainbow?
Below is an example of a common gay pride rainbow flag.
There are several differences between them and that is the purpose of this article: to highlight those differences and teach the in-depth truth of the word of God so as to gain great enlightenment and understanding.
One of the purposes is:
2 Corinthians 2:11
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
Another purpose is in Proverbs:
Proverbs 4:7
Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
Much appreciation goes to the Way International and Rev. Martindale [who has been teaching the remnant of believers for many years now] for some of the background information that made this possible.
However, the vast majority of this is my own original research.
GAY PRIDE RAINBOW FLAG VS GOD'S PERFECT RAINBOW
I've analyzed this from many different angles:- The biblical meaning of numbers: 6 vs 7
- The meaning of colors and the sinister side of the gay pride rainbow flag nobody will ever tell you...
- What color was Jesus' garment during his trials?
- an analysis of the frequencies & wavelengths of colors
- What are the 5 parallels between homosexuality & the trinity?
- The remarkable 9 manifestations of holy spirit
- Ephesians 6 tells us how to withstand darkness in our evil day
- The history and origin of the gay pride flag
- The 8 characteristics of God's wisdom
- The biblical record of the rainbow

In my research, I've discovered the devil can only do 4 things against the word, which I call the 4 C's:
- Conceal it [Romans 1:18]
- Contradict it [John 9]
- Corrupt it: [Matthew 4 & Psalm 91]
- Counterfeit it [II Thessalonians 2:2]
THE BIBLICAL MEANING OF NUMBERS: 6 VS 7
Here is the ultimate reference work on the biblical meaning of numbers: E. W. Bullinger's book on numbers in scripture.The foundation of the biblical meaning of numbers
As you can see, the gay pride rainbow flag only has 6 colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple.
However, God's true rainbow has seven: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.
The gay pride flag drops the color indigo.
That reminds me of what Eve did in Genesis 3 in the fall of man: she added a word to God's word; she subtracted a word from God's word and she changed a word from God's word.
With all those changes, you no longer have God's word left.
The easy way to remember the colors of the true rainbow, in order is: ROY G BIV.
So why does the gay pride rainbow flag only have 6 colors and God's rainbow have 7?
One piece of the puzzle is to analyze the number of colors in each rainbow and see how that compares to the bible.
What is the biblical meaning of the number 6?
Here are just some of the highlights:
"Six is either 4 plus 2, i.e., man's world (4) with man's enmity to God (2) brought in: or it is 5 plus 1, the grace of God made of none effect by man's addition to it, or perversion, or corruption of it: or it is 7 minus 1, i.e., man's coming short of spiritual perfection.
In any case, therefore, it has to do with man; it is the number of imperfection; the human number; the number of MAN as destitute of God, without God, without Christ.
At any rate it is certain that man was created on the sixth day, and thus he has the number six impressed upon him.
The serpent also was created on the sixth day.
Cain's descendants are given only as far as the sixth generation".
And finally, we're all familiar with 666, the number of the beast in the book of Revelation.
Revelation 13:18
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
Just from the biblical meaning of numbers alone, we can see the gay pride rainbow flag falls short of God's biblical standard.
NOW FOR THE NUMBER 7.
In a nutshell, the number 7 refers to spiritual perfection.
But don't forget the special combination of 6 & 7 together.
There are so many in depth examples of this that we can only scratch the surface.
"We come now to the great number of spiritual perfection. A number which, therefore, occupies so large a place in the works, and especially in the Word of God as being inspired by the Holy Spirit.
In the first part of this book we have enlarged somewhat on the importance of this number in Nature and in Grace, so that we need not here repeat many of the interesting facts already given.
As a number the actual word and number "SEVEN" is used as no other number is. Seven and its compounds occur in multiples of seven in the Old Testament.
Seven occurs 287 times, or 7 x 41.
"Seventh," the fractional part, occurs 98 times, or 7 x 14.
"Seven-fold," occurs 7 times.
The above three numbers together are of course a multiple of seven, but a very remarkable one, 287 + 98 + 7 = 392, and 392 is 72 + 73, or 8 times the square of seven (72x8).
Then again seven, in combination with other numbers, is remarkable, such as fifty and seven, a hundred and seven, etc. There are 112 of these combinations, or 7 x 16.
"Seventy" occurs 56 times, or 7 x 8.
"Seventy," in combination with other numbers, occurs 35 times, or 7 x 5.
It is, however, when we come to consider its significance that the true glories of its spiritual perfection are revealed.
We have just seen that six is the number which is stamped upon all things human, as being emphatically the number of man. Let us first observe the use of the two numbers".
WHAT ARE THE MEANING OF COLORS AND THE SINISTER SIDE OF THE GAY PRIDE RAINBOW FLAG NOBODY EVER TOLD YOU...

Just from a visual perspective alone, removing the indigo color band is the most subtle and imperceptible change that could be made.
If somebody took out red, green or blue, it would be blatantly obvious.
But in a rainbow, indigo is a vague fuzzy territory somewhere between where blue ends and violet begins. Its one of those colors thats hard to pin down.
And that's precisely the point.
The closer the counterfeit is to the genuine, the more effective it is.
That's exactly how the devil works: he can very slowly and gradually slide you away from God and towards the dark side, just as in the article about how Bruce Jenner went from the olympic decathlon winner to being a blatant transvestite that the entire world celebrated.
You may say that the gay pride flag is balanced because there's 3 colors on each side, but that is actually a deceptive design flaw because there's no fulcrum.
With the 7 colors of the rainbow, green is the fulcrum and red, orange and yellow are on 1 side and blue, indigo and violet are on the other.
This matches with what the bible calls a balanced walk with God.
Ephesians 4:1
I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
Definition of the root word for "worthy":
Strong's Concordance #514 [used 41 times in the NT]
axios: of weight, of worth, worthy
Part of Speech: Adjective
Phonetic Spelling: (ax'-ee-os)
Definition: of weight, of worth, worthy
Usage: worthy, worthy of, deserving, comparable, suitable.

514 áksios (an adjective derived from aksō, "to weigh") – properly, to weigh in, assigning the matching value ("worth-to-worth"); worthy, i.e. as the assessment in keeping with how something "weighs in" on God's balance-scale of truth.
514 /áksios ("weighed-in") "properly means, 'drawing down the scale' hence 'weighing as much as,' 'of like value, worth,' befitting, congruous, corresponding" (J. Thayer).
[514 (áksios) is the root of the English term, "axis." This also refers to a balance-scale, operating by off-setting weights.]
We must have the proper balance between doctrine and the practical application of it [wisdom] in order to walk worthy of the Lord.
For example, in the book of Ephesians, chapters 1-3 is the doctrinal side and chapters 4-6 are the practical application, the wisdom of how to apply the word in our lives.
In the screenshot below, we can see the perfection of the structure of the 7 church epistles which are perfectly balanced, just like God's true rainbow.
The fulcrum is the foundation of the entire balance. Without it, the balance cannot exist.
Jesus Christ is the subject & foundation of every book of the bible and he was exchanged for the counterfeit gay pride rainbow flag.
Jesus Christ is the subject & foundation of every book of the bible and he was exchanged for the counterfeit gay pride rainbow flag.
A flag cannot function properly unless there is a wind to prop it up, enabling us to see all of it.
Ephesians 4:14
That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
The gay pride rainbow flag is pridefully puffed up by the chilling winds of Satan's false and poisonous doctrines of devils.
God's rainbow can only be seen in his perfect light.

Wind can be very unpredictable and it can come in the form of:
- a destructive storm, such as a hurricane or tornado
- there might be a nice, gentle breeze
- or there might be no wind at all
- unpredictable
- unreliable
- untrustworthy
Look at Matthew 24!!
Matthew 24
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers [many] places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax [become] cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
In verse 12, the word "iniquity" is the Greek word anomos, which literally means without law; lawlessness; contempt and violation of law>>both of man's legal laws and the spiritual laws of God = his perfect and eternal word.
Look at the definition of "cold" in verse 12!

Strong's Concordance #5604
ódin: a birth pang
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine
Phonetic Spelling: (o-deen')
Definition: a birth pang
Usage: the pain of childbirth, acute pain, severe agony, a snare.
HELPS Word-studies
5604 ōdín – properly, the pain of childbirth (travail); (figuratively) the pain necessary to open up (introduce) something new, i.e. to bring in more.
[5604 (ōdín) suggests intense suffering (similar to birth pain) – hence, "to suffer greatly, great pain" (L & N, 1, 24.87) like "a birth-pang, travail-pain; figuratively, extreme suffering" (A-S).]
If this isn't an exact description of our current world, then I don't know what is!
The evil we are swimming in seems to come in waves of increasing intensity, just like a pregnant woman's birth pains.
Similar to the changing winds of false doctrines, there is a constellation in the night sky called Cetus , the sea monster that has what is known as a variable star in it.
"Mira A, a red giant belonging to the spectral type M7 IIIe, is an oscillating variable star that serves as a prototype for an entire class of variables, the Mira variables.
There are between 6,000 and 7,000 known stars belonging to this group. They are all red giants whose surfaces oscillate in such a way as to cause variations in brightness over periods ranging from 80 to more than 1,000 days".
Cetus represents the devil who hides himself from view and is always changing and is therefore, unpredictable and untrustworthy, in contrast to God and his word.
Malachi 3:6
For I am the Lord, I change not...
Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
WHAT COLOR WAS JESUS' CLOTHING?
Purple is the color of royalty and during the last few days of his life before his death on the cross [tree], Jesus was clothed in a purple garment.Mark 15:17
And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,
Mark 15:20
And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
John 19:2
And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,
John 19:5
Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!
So all these 4 records say that a purple robe was placed on him, but Matthew, in the kjv seems to contradict them:
Matthew 27:28
And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
However, we must remember that the original text was absolutely perfect when it was first given to man, so the problem has to be in either our understanding or there must be a bad translation of the verse.
If we check out Matthew 27:28 in the Codex Sinaiticus, the oldest complete copy of the Greek New Testament, dating back to the 4th century A.D., we see that it is in agreement with the other 4 verses.
Matthew 27:28
"28 And having stripped him they put on him a purple cloak,
29 and having plaited a crown of thorns they put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand, and bowing the knee before him they mocked him, saying: Hail, King of the Jews"
This is where some additional research proves quite revealing...
Definition of "purple":
Strong's Concordance # 4209 [this root word is used only 6 times in the NT]
porphura: purple fish, purple dye, purple cloth
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine
Phonetic Spelling: (por-foo'-rah)
Definition: purple fish, purple dye, purple cloth
Usage: a purple garment, indicating power or wealth.
HELPS Word-studies
4209 porphýra – purple, symbolic of "royal status" (L & N, 1, 79.38). There were three familiar shades of purple in the ancient world: deep violet, deep scarlet (or crimson), and deep blue (WP, 2, 220).
Prov 31:22 associates purple with "godly (ideal) femininity," i.e. "righteous femaleness."
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance #4209
Of Latin origin; the "purple" mussel, i.e. (by implication) the red-blue color itself, and finally a garment dyed with it -- purple.
Acts 16:14
And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul.
Here, the word purple is porphuropólis, which means a female trader in purple fabrics, which has the same root word porphura #4209.
Below are 25 images of various shells from which the blue indigo dye was taken from.
Indigo dye data:
"Archaeological data from Tyre indicate that the snails were collected in large vats and left to decompose. This produced a hideous stench that was actually mentioned by ancient authors. (Aristotle, Vitruvius, and Pliny the Elder). Not much is known about the subsequent steps, and the actual ancient method for mass-producing the two murex dyes has not yet been successfully reconstructed;
This special “blackish clotted blood” colour, which was prized above all others, is believed to be achieved by double-dipping the cloth, once in the indigo dye of H. trunculus and once in the purple-red dye of B. brandaris. (Source: The Mediterranean Sea: Its history and present challenges, edited by Stefano Goffredo, Zvy Dubinsky)"
This has been verified from multiple sources as well:
Indigo dye from sea snails:
"This sea snail is historically important because its hypobranchial gland secretes a mucus used to create a distinctive purple-blue indigo dye. Ancient Mediterranean cultures, including the Minoans, Canaanites/Phoenicians, Hebrews, and classical Greeks created dyes from the snails.
One of the dye's main chemical ingredients is red dibromo-indigotin, the main component of tyrian purple or tekhelet.[4] The dye will turn indigo blue, similar to the color of blue jeans, if exposed to sunlight before the dye sets".
Jesus Christ is the high priest for Israel and in the book of James, he's the royal law which is to love your neighbor as yourself.
More data on the indigo blue violet dye.
"Tekhelet (Hebrew: תְּכֵלֶת; alternate spellings include tekheleth, t'chelet, techelet and techeiles) is a "blue-violet",[1] "blue",[2] or "turquoise"[3] dye highly prized by ancient Mediterranean civilizations and mentioned 49[4][5] times in the Hebrew Bible/Tanakh. It was used in the clothing of the High Priest, the tapestries in the Tabernacle, and the tzitzit (fringes) affixed to the corners of one's four-cornered garments, including the tallit.[4]"
Thus, when we put the pieces of the puzzle together that we have so far, its clear that the color band of indigo that is in God's perfect rainbow and was deliberately deleted from the gay pride rainbow flag represent Jesus Christ.
So why was he deleted?
Part of the answer is in these 2 verses:
John 15:25
But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
Romans 1:18
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
The word "hold" is the Greek word katechó [Strong's #2722] and more accurately means to hold down; to suppress.
Jesus Christ is the living word who defeated the devil. No wonder the devil tries to conceal him at every oppurtunity.
That explains a lot.
WHAT 5 THINGS DOES HOMOSEXUALITY HAVE IN COMMON WITH THE TRINITY?
There are several parallels between the trinity and homosexuality as explained in the youtube video and in the table below.| HOMOSEXUALITY VS THE TRINITY | |
| Homosexuality | Trinity |
| #1 Idolatry Worship of the creation instead of the creator Romans 1:25 [New English Translation NET] They exchanged the truth of God for a [the] lie and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. |

| #3 Confusion vain imaginations; confused back & forth reasoning Romans 1:21 |
#3 Confusion it contradicts the laws of mathematics & logic, making the trinity impossible to understand see the proof in the shield of the trinity diagram anaylsis |
| #4 Both are based upon an entire series of lies Homosexuality contradicts many truths in Romans 1 Romans 1:18-31 |

| #5 The world Homosexuals have been overcome by the world and the devil who manages it the opposite of Genesis 1:26 & 28; II Timothy 2:26 |
#5 The world Trinitarians cannot overcome the world because they do not believe that Jesus is the son of God I John 5:4-5 |
In the shield of the trinity diagram, the name of Jesus Christ, the name above all names, was deleted from the diagram.
Furthermore, the phrase "son of God" was also deleted from that same diagram and the only way we can overcome the devil and the world he is god of is to believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten son of God.
Philippians 2
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
I John 5
1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith [believing].
5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
There are even more devil spirits involved with homosexuality than there are in the trinity.
Therefore, it makes sense that the devil would want to get rid of the name of Jesus Christ, the son of God in the homosexual community as well.
The deletion of the indigo color band out of the gay pride rainbow flag is the visual equivalent of grammatically removing the name of Jesus Christ and his identity as the son of God from the shield of the trinity diagram.
Red indicates commitment and redemption and the perfect blood he shed for us; blue represents the peace and presence of God, which when combined, result in purple, the color of royalty.
In the book of James, Jesus Christ is the royal law. Indigo is a combination of purple and blue; thus indigo has all 3 characteristics of Jesus Christ:
- RED: Commitment, redemption and shed blood
- BLUE: The peace and presence of God
- PURPLE: Royalty as the high priest and only begotten son of God
THE 9 MANIFESTATIONS OF HOLY SPIRIT
I Corinthians 121 Now concerning spiritual
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he [the person, NOT GOD!] will.
As you can see in verse 1, the word "gifts" is in italicized text and has a
To verify this yourself, click on this link to I Corinthians 12:1 in the Codex Sinaiticus, the oldest complete copy of the Greek New Testament in existence, dating back to the 4th century A.D.. [Go to the lower right quadrant and scroll down to I Corinthians 12:1].
Only a handful of modern bible versions have italicized text that tells us which words the publishers deliberately added to the bible.
Sometimes its accurate, but more often than not, it amounts to private [one's own] opinions and theologies and its very wrong because its just one of 6 different attacks against speaking in tongues.
Its significant to note that in God's true and original rainbow, there are 7 distinct colors and the 7th manifestation listed in I Corinthian 12:10 is discerning of spirits.
Discerning of spirits tells us if any devil spirits are present, and if so, what their identities are so we can be successful in defeating them. This is why the devil hates discerning of spirits because it exposes him to God's perfect spiritual light.
Discerning of spirits tells us if any devil spirits are present, and if so, what their identities are so we can be successful in defeating them. This is why the devil hates discerning of spirits because it exposes him to God's perfect spiritual light.
The homosexual community often cries out discrimination.
However, the word discrimination in a dictionary points out that a synonym is discerning and discern mentions discrimination as a synonym.
Both have as their word origins Latin words that mean to separate, so when the homosexual community yells out "That's discrimination!", its basically Satan complaining about being exposed by the 7th manifestation of holy spirit called discerning of spirits.
This is another reason the indigo color band was deleted out of the homosexual pride flag because it represents Jesus Christ who detected and cast out more devil spirits than anybody else in the bible.
EPHESIANS 6: THE SPIRITUAL COMPETITION
Ephesians 610 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle [an athletic term, not military!] not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

SPIRITUAL FOOLISHNESS LEADS TO SPIRITUAL DARKNESS
In Romans 1, the concept of foolishness is mentioned 3 times [represented by 2 different Greek words] and in Luke 24, its mentioned once.
Romans 1
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish [Greek word asunetos: without understanding; [Strong's #801; Usage: unintelligent, without wisdom, unwise, undiscerning (implying probably moral defect)], heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, [this is the Greek word mórainó: to be foolish; dull; sluggish; acting stupid or silly; [Strong's #3471] this is where we get the word moron;]
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
31 Without understanding [Greek word asunetos: without understanding; [Strong's #801; Usage: unintelligent, without wisdom, unwise, undiscerning (implying probably moral defect)]., covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
One of the definitions of foolish [without understanding] is undiscerning; this fits with the big yellow box highlight in the section above: without Jesus Christ, the apostle and light of the world, there can be no operation of the 7th manifestation of the gift of holy spirit which is discerning of spirits.
Removing Jesus Christ out of your life is foolish and will cause spiritual darkness in your life.
I Corinthians 12:3
Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by
The word the has been struck out because its not in any critical Greek text.
The phrase "Holy Ghost" is the 2 Greek words hagion pneuma, which means and refers to the gift of holy spirit we receive when we get born again.
"speaking by the Spirit of God" is speaking in tongues.
So here is a much more accurate translation:
I Corinthians 12:3
Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God [speaking in tongues] calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by [the gift of] holy spirit.
Thus we can't truly say that Jesus is our Lord unless we are born again and speak in tongues the wonderful works of God.
Even the devil's children can verbally say "Jesus is Lord", [which on a personal level for them is an absolute lie], but its impossible for them to speak in tongues, revealing them as a counterfeit.
Speaking in tongues is an absolute proof that Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead [see Acts 1:3] and is also the only true form of worshiping God which is the first thing the devil attacks in Romans 1:21 "...Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God"...
The parallels between Luke 24 & Romans 1 are that both mention foolishness which leads to darkness & blindness.
Luke 24
13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
In verses 31, 32 & 45, the word "opened" is used 3 times in this chapter alone, the number of completeness.
This word is also used a total of 8 times in the bible and 8 is the number of resurrection and renewal.
Its a new beginning with God when we see that Jesus Christ is the subject of every book of the bible.

HELPS Word-studies
1272 dianoígō (from 1223 /diá, "all the way across" and 455 /anoígō, "the process to open fully") – properly, open fully by completing the process necessary to do so (not the prefix 303 /aná which intensifies the root, oigō).
It is only through Jesus Christ, the red thread of the bible, the subject of every book of the bible, can we get the full depth of complete understanding of the word of God, yet Satan removed the presence of Jesus Christ from the gay pride flag, blocking the understanding of the scriptures.
The gay pride rainbow flag represents spiritual foolishness and darkness because it removed the indigo color band, Jesus Christ, who is the light of the world and represents the wisdom of God in the book of Proverbs.
John 8:12
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
THE BIBLICAL RECORD OF THE RAINBOW
OLD TESTAMENTGenesis 9
8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
11 And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
17 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
The word "bow" [rainbow] is used 3 times in these 10 verses and the word "covenant" is used 7 times, the number of spiritual perfection.
This is just the opposite of being a covenantbreaker, the 20th of 23 characteristics of a reprobate mind mentioned in Romans 1 in the context of idolatry and homosexuality!

Romans 1:31
Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Definition of covenantbreakers:
Strong's Concordance #802
asunthetos: not keeping covenant
Part of Speech: Adjective
Phonetic Spelling: (as-oon'-thet-os)
Definition: not keeping covenant
Usage: not covenanting, untrue to an agreement, treacherous.
Covenant breaker, as used in Romans 1:31, is caused by a devil spirit of treachery.
We see treachery throughout our society.
A politician promises A, B and C during their campaign, but after they get elected and sworn into office, they do just the opposite. That's treachery.
Doctors must agree to the Hippocratic oath which says, first do the patient no harm, yet every doctor and pharmacist on the planet knows that all drugs have side effects that cause some level of harm, ranging from very minor or temporary problems such as a mild cough to fatal or debilitating consequences such as heart attacks or strokes.
Thus every doctor who prescribes pharmaceutical drugs is a covenantbreaker, whether or not they are even aware of it.
It doesn't mean they have devil spirits, but ultimately, the covenantbreaking system has is origins and roots from the devil.
Psalm 34:8
O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
Psalm 118:8
It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.
Jeremiah 17
5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful [anxious] in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
This is why we can't trust man, because the heart is deceitful, and man can be influenced or possessed by devil spirits, such as lying spirits, treachery spirits, etc.
Its critically important to realize the truth that God never caused the flood of Noah! It was the devil who committed mass murder of all plant, animal and human life by flooding the entire earth in another failed attempt to prevent Jesus Christ from being born.
Whenever it says the Lord slayed the people, God flooded the earth, etc, it is a figure of speech called a Hebrew idiom of permission which means God was not the cause of the problem, but rather he allowed it to happen because people reap what they sow and God allows the devil freedom of will as the god of this world.
NEW TESTAMENT
Revelation 4:3
And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.
Revelation 10:1
And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
SUMMARY
This is just one of several different angles we can see and understand what is going on with the gay pride rainbow flag vs God's true rainbow. The best I have come up with so far is that the color indigo represents Jesus Christ, the son of God and the 7th manifestation of holy spirit listed in I Corinthians 12:7 - 10 is discerning of spirits, and as we have already seen, 7 is the number of spiritual perfection.The devil hates Jesus Christ, the one who defeated him. As a matter of fact, their are many verses that reveal that the devil killed and destroyed many people and things in order to prevent Jesus Christ from even being born, and seeing those attempts all failed, he tried to murder him multiple times as well.
All of the above factors are the spiritual reasons Satan deleted the color of indigo out of the counterfeit gay pride rainbow flag.
The gay pride rainbow flag is the world's inferior counterfeit and corrupted version of God's perfect rainbow.
