Exodus 32:9
And the Lord said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
Exodus 33:3
Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way.
Exodus 33:5
For the Lord had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people: I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee: therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto thee.
Exodus 34:9
And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance.
Deuteronomy 9:6
Understand therefore, that the Lord thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.
Deuteronomy 9:13
Furthermore the Lord spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
Deuteronomy 10:16
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
2 Chronicles 30:8
Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto the Lord, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve the Lord your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you.
Acts 7:51
Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.
I’m confused on what people will be shocked at when Jesus returns. Please clarify.
As far as a “stiff-necked people” , God is addressing not only the Israelites, but all of humanity. God didn’t pick the descendants of Abraham to be His chosen people because they were special. God could have picked any group of people. He picked them in order for them to show the rest of humanity who He is and what His laws are.
Reading Exodus made me very frustrated at the 12 tribes as they would continually turn their back on God even as God was visible to them all the time. I finally realized that I am guilty of that as well but didn’t want to see it. Lesson learned. Thank you, Father.
Into captivity and out again, over and over. So full of religion "made made works" they missed the arrival of their own savior. It's not too late for them to get on board if they still draw breath.
You know what God called the Israelites over and over in the Bible?
Stiff necked.
I'm gonna laugh at the things people will be shocked about when Jesus returns and they find out how much of history has been a complete lie.

I had to go to work so I didn't see this, but yep, that's perfect.
