1 | The scriptures and U.S. Mid East Policy | Rev 12:12 | Pastor Glenn | 137828 | ||
Hello Forum, I was recently led to a web-site that complains that Christian Zionists are helping to ruin the U.S. foreign policy in the middle east. They are saying that Zionists do not want peace. I think that the real danger is not Israel or Christian Zionism. I think that it is a lie to say that Zionists do not want peace. I heard that Arafat refused a Palestinian State deal years ago. The Islamic movement clearly wants to destroy Israel. Remember too, that before Israel even became a nation during WW II, the Nazis searched them out and destroyed 6 million Jews. This makes the scriptures perfectly clear. Satan hates Jews and Christians. Look at what is happening around the world and compare to Rev chapter 12: Rev 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Rev 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. Rev 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. Rev 12:15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. Rev 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Notice that Satan hates both the "woman" (Israel), as well as, her seed (Christians). Please check out a video called "Former Muslims Testify About Islam" by going to the following link: http://www.johnankerberg.org/TV/ankjasrm-islam-wmv.html#IPR1 This is a real eye opener. Islam is a Satanic religion that hates Jews and Christians just as Nazism wanted to destroy Jews and Christians before. Even now Christian are being killed in Sudan, Africa! This is the spirit of Anti-Christ: 1John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 1John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 1John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 2John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. I know that some Christians feel that it is wrong to look at the world with a newspaper in one hand and a bible in the other. Am I wrong??? Pastor Glenn |

Pastor Glenn, I welcome your thoughts and comments on this topic. I agree with you. Incidentally, C.H. Spurgeon preached series of sermons over his years dealing with topics from the newspaper. I'm amazed at how scripture speaks to current events- especially in the Mid-East. We can be certain that there will be no true peace until the Prince of Peace either returns or is acknowledged by Israel as its' Messiah! The answer to "why" Israel cannot find peace is that they have not repented. The major call of the OT prophets was for repentance. As Dr. Jerry Benjamin writes, "..prophecy is often interpreted by the newspaper headlines rather than Scriptural revelation. And, unfortunately, many Christians today have become "prophecy-junkies!" "Because all of prophecy centers on a Person, not events, programs, places, or predictions. God never gave us prophecy to enlighten our minds with information or satisfy our curiosity about the future. God designed prophecy to focus on His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, so that we may know Him!" "The Word of God clearly declares that Jesus Christ is the spirit of prophecy (Rev. 19:10).We must never separate the purpose of prophecy from the Person of prophecy. For all prophecy not only centers on Christ, but is also fufilled in Christ." I hope this adds something of value to your comments. God Bless, BradK |

Thanks BradK, I like your comment: "I'm amazed at how scripture speaks to current events- especially in the Mid-East. We can be certain that there will be no true peace until the Prince of Peace either returns or is acknowledged by Israel as its' Messiah! " I am amazed at how many people still deny belief in God when we cannot get around that "Chief Corner Stone" (Jesus Christ) sitting right smack in the center of history. He came before just as God's word said He would, and He is coming again! Pastor Glenn |

Gen 16:12 "He will be a wild donkey of a man, His hand will be against everyone, And everyone's hand will be against him; And he will live to the east of all his brothers." This is the passage that speaks of Ishmael what do you think about this pasage in light of today. |

Yes One, I heard that the Koran claims muslims to be of the "chosen" line of Ishmael. It also says that Abram offered up Ishmael instead of Isaac. "a wild donkey of a man, His hand will be against everyone, And everyone's hand will be against him; " |

Yes, it does. I find this passage interesting as we see many nations turn agains terroism and the people who support them. I find is so frustrating when Muslims on one hand say they don't condon terrorist, but then they will say we have to understand the terroists anger. To me the middle east will not have peace because they willnot accept the prince of peace. One |

Hi, Your frustration is shared by many... I suspect that we have been trained to be tolerant of people and we are blindsided by their duality... I recall that on September 11, and the days following, the general population of many arab nations were filmed rejoicing on the streets over the destruction that befell the US; these people did not seem to be Islamic extremists: they were middle age adults, young adults, and children... they chanted and cheered and burnt US flags! Conversely, these same people and their terrorist murdering friends and relatives would not raise their voice to their own kinsmen--the likes of Saddam and the various ruling families--under whose horrific oppression they starve to death or are tortured to death, despite of the arab nations' control of the wealthiest petroleum deposits in the world... Noticed how not even the western media finds any fault at any of their actions... they come to the US only to spread their hatred for the "infidels" (check news magazines such as 20/20 on indepth study of Islam in the US); these infidels are none other than Israelites and Christians--to be objective, they have killed both Christians and non-Christians in the past--equal murder opportunity, I guess. It is interesting to hear some of them speaking on street corners (US Muslims)... how proud they are that Islam is getting more power... they can't wait for it to be as it was: when infidels were decapitated on site if they did not convert! They also pronounce joyfully how they do everything that Christians do not do! It is the anti-Christ culture that is sweeping the world... most people seem not to want to believe--even as they become more bold and more violent! God Bless! Angel |
