THE MYSTERY OF THE JEWISH NATION

Posted on by

The Jewish people have always been a mystery to the world. No people have ever known so much rejection, antipathy, and hatred. Joined to one land as no other people have ever been so joined to a land—and yet separated from their land and landless as no other people have been so separated from a land or landless.

Even before they went into the promised land God revealed to them through Moses their entire history, they would be scattered throughout the Earth but in the latter days, they would return to the Lord.

“And the Lord will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the Lord will drive you. And there you will serve gods of wood and stone, the work of human hands, that neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul. When you are in tribulation, and all these things come upon you in the latter days, you will return to the Lord your God and obey his voice. For the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you, destroy you, or forget the covenant with your fathers that he swore to them.“ Deuteronomy 4:27-31

In fact, all of the O.T. prophets were given the end of the story for their nation, Israel, when their Messiah Jesus will rule all the world’s nations from a magnificent new Jerusalem for 1000 years. Check out: http://www.millennialkingdom.net

Throughout their history they have dwelt apart and separate from the nations as no people have ever been so separate—and yet so intertwined with the nations and critical to world history as no other people have been so intertwined and critical. No people have ever been so connected to their times and so transcended the parameters of time and space to become near timeless and universal.

They have been the weakest of nations and yet the strongest—the most vulnerable of peoples and most often in danger of extermination; and yet the most enduring of peoples. No people, while on earth, have ever so known the presence of God and the glories of heaven and yet no other people have ever so known the depths of hell. They are an enigma, an anomaly, a paradox, a mystery people.

The Scriptures record that God called them into existence. They were not chosen for any special attribute they possessed.

“Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession among all peoples, for all the earth is mine; and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ Exodus 19:5-6

Israel was to be a vessel of God, a central conduit and instrument for the fulfillment of His plans and purposes for the world. According to the Scriptures, Israel stands at the centre of God’s purposes—not only in past and ancient times but in all times. They occupy the centre point of history and prophecy. And beyond all this is something even more foundational. In the Book of Isaiah, God says to the people of Israel, “You are My witnesses“. And thus beyond any work or accomplishment of the Jewish people is something still more critical and transcendent—their existence. The very existence of the Jewish people is a witness testifying to the existence of God.

There is a spiritual entity (The Dragon) that wars against the purposes and works of God and does everything in its power to thwart, attack, and destroy them. The war against Jewish existence is unlike any other. It knows no bounds of space or time. It is not rational or natural. It happens no matter what, no matter when, no matter who, and no matter where. It is supernatural and irrational, the dark and virulent offshoot of the mystery of evil. It is the work of a fallen, twisted, inverted spiritual and supernatural being. The truth is, the first of all anti-Semites was an angel. All who hate the Jewish people, all the anti-Semites of every place and time he is their father, and they, his children. The words they speak against the children of Israel are his words. The acts they commit against them are his acts. And so if we look through the ages at the attacks launched and battles waged against the Jewish people, we would expect to find there his footprints. And his footprints are exactly what we find.

Notice, that Satan is called the accuser: “for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God.” Revelation 12:10. Therefore, we would expect the Jewish people to become the most slandered people in human history, the eternal focal point of accusation, allegation, vilification, and demonization. And so they have been and still are. Beyond that Satan is a liar, we would therefore expect the Jewish people to become the focal point not only of accusation but of false accusations, lies, and fabrications.

In the modern world, they are accused of masterminding virtually every major evil and conspiracy for the purpose of world domination. It matters not how groundless or far-fetched the accusations are. Their origins, as we have seen, are not rational. But they are consistent with the one, Satan, in whom there is no truth.

From Biblical prophecy, we know that Satan’s time of ruling planet Earth is coming to an end. He will have ruled for 6,000 years and then we will have Jesus Christ rule for 1,000 years to fulfill God’s promise to Abraham that the nation He established through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob will rule the nations of Earth.

OCTOBER 7TH WAS PURE EVIL

Posted on by

On October 7, 2023 the world woke up to the horrific news of the deadliest day for Jewish people since the Holocaust. The Hamas terrorist attack on Israel unleashed a wave of global antisemitism. This One Free World International film captures the stories and truth of what took place in Israel on October 7 and exposes the truth of the enduring challenge we must overcome to defeat the hate-filled ideology that is fuelling global antisemitism and dividing our society. This is an exclusive October 7 anniversary release. The full version of Dying To Live will be released late-2024.

Thank goodness the Hamas terrorists filmed their own actions live so people back in Gaza could see what they were doing. Only one phrase was coming out of their mouths “Allahu Akbar”. They were doing this in the name of their God. No one can deny it happened as the perpetrators filmed their own depraved actions.

Biblical end-times prophecies reveal that Satan’s end-times strategy is all about eliminating the Jews and Christians so we should not be surprised by what is unfolding. In fact, this is just the beginning of “birth pangs”

“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. 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. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Matthew 24:7-13

JONATHAN CAHN’S FIRST BOOK ON END TIMES PROPHECY

Posted on by

This video is the best conversation I’ve heard about Jonathan Cahn’s new book The Dragon’s Prophecy: Israel, the Dark Resurrection and the End of Days! The Bible is unfolding in exact alignment with end-times prophecies. Thank God for using Rabbi Cahn to inform the world. Even the recent invasion by Hamas is part of the Biblical end-times prophecies. We all must remember that God is in control. This spiritual war is unfolding exactly as prophesied. The Bible even names the nations that war against Israel.

Hamas invaded and killed over 2000 Israelis including women, babies, and children, and yet it has resulted in antisemitism the world over. This is unfathomable and for me demonstrates it has to be spiritually motivated. Fortunately, Jesus told us that persecution of Christians will also intensify in the last days: tribulation becomes great tribulation before Jesus returns to rapture the Saints. He also said:

“Let not your hearts be troubled: Believe in God, believe also in me… I go to prepare a place for you and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.” John 14:2-3

Biblical prophecy reveals Jesus will rapture believers to heaven just before God pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet (Revelation 8) and Bowl (Revelation 16) judgements. You need to warn your unbelieving family and friends that they need to repent and get right with God otherwise they will face God’s wrath. Take them to Revelation 8 and 16.

“KILL THE JEWS” CHANTED ON THE STREETS OF OUR CAPITAL CITIES

Posted on by

As the followers of this blog know, my reason for being is to make people aware we are in the Biblical prophesied end times before Jesus returns to Earth. We are fast approaching the last seven years of Daniel’s 70 Weeks prophecy.

Jesus makes it abundantly clear that Jews and Christians will be under growing persecution during this time so I am not surprised to see rising antisemitism across the nations. Nevertheless, it surprised me, that the diabolical attack by Hamas on Jewish civilians including children, and even babies, resulted in a totally illogical response with the Jews seen as the aggressor, and the Palestine cause justified the genocide. To see Sydney University students chanting “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” was chilling.

The first video below is by the Southern Cross Alliance for Israel (SCAFI). I have included the video because of the segment by Freyer Leach on antisemitism at Sydney University where she is a student. What Freyer is doing on campus to support Israel is inspirational. The short video “Pro-Palestinians chase Christian pastor holding Israeli flag” shows Mark Leach, Freyer’s father, a lone figure being chased by young male Pro-Palestinian supporters. The experience inspired him to start the Never Again is Now movement.

CHRISTIANS NEED TO PREPARE FOR THE COMING TRIBULATION

Jonathan Cahn speaks on current events as they relate to end times Scriptures. Antisemitism is rampant worldwide. Nations are coming against Israel exactly as prophesied. How important it is to know how to stand in these end times when persecution is rife. Jonathan gives us 18 Keys on how to stand in the days of lawlessness and chaos.

HISTORY OF THE GAZA STRIP AND PALESTINE

Posted on by

This video provides the true history of the Gaza Strip and Palestine. The word Palestine does not appear in the Bible as the word did not exist before the Romans made it up.

The ancient Romans pinned the name on the Land of Israel. In 135 CE, after stamping out the province of Judea’s second insurrection,  the Romans renamed the province Syria Palaestina—that is, “Palestinian Syria.” They did so resentfully, as a punishment, to obliterate the link between the Jews (in Hebrew, Y’hudim and in Latin Judaei) and the province (the Hebrew name of which was Y’hudah). “Palaestina” referred to the Philistines, whose home base had been on the Mediterranean coast. 

“Palestine” was used for millennia without a precise geographic definition. That’s not uncommon—think of “Transcaucasus” or “Midwest.” No accurate definition existed for Palestine because none was required. Since the Roman era, the name lacked political significance. No nation ever had that name.

ISRAEL BLAMED FOR HAMAS’S STARVATION WARFARE

Posted on by

The Anti-Semites of the World United have blamed Israel for creating the famine conditions they wish to exist in Gaza. “International officials continue to accuse Israel of creating famine conditions in Gaza,” noted Family Research Council Action President Jody Hice, “even as research demonstrates that the root cause of suffering in Gaza is Hamas.”

Israel is allowing humanitarian aid into Gaza faster than aid organizations can distribute it. “The amount of food that is being supplied into Gaza by Israel, by the United States, by the Egyptians, including local production … is sufficient,” Kivetz declared. According to an April analysis he co-wrote with fellow Columbia University professor Awi Federgruin, “290,000 tons of food and beverages have been delivered to Gaza since October,” according to Israel’s Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), enough to supply each of Gaza’s two million residents with “1.82 pounds of food daily.” Based on U.N. estimates, they added, aid imported through Israel is “enough to supply 50% of Gazans’ daily consumption needs — on top of the food they continue to produce themselves.”

In large part due to the generosity of Israel, the Gaza Strip has not reached catastrophic famine conditions. “Obviously, in a war zone, you will have disruptions of the food supply and so on,” Kivetz granted, but “I don’t think we’ve seen evidence of famine — of widespread starvation, heaven forbid, or famine — in Gaza.”

Yet “that’s the story. That’s the narrative that’s being put out there,” Hice noted. International media and commentators have generated rumors of a famine. So far are these rumors from the truth that, “if you compare the amount of food per capita (per individual) that has been supplied into Gaza, compared to the average food consumption in Asia and Africa … it’s even higher in Gaza,” contended Kivetz.

How can the prevailing narrative be so contrary to the facts? On one level, the only explanation is that Satan, who rules this world as “prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience” (Ephesians 2:2), is also “a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44). On another level, there is a human agent with a vested interest in broadcasting such a false narrative. That party is the terrorist group Hamas, they started the war by murdering Israeli civilians and have conducted the war by abusing Gazan civilians.

“Part of the supply chain problem” is “the chaos in war, but part of it is Hamas,” insisted Kivetz, “which has been hoarding and stealing food, which has been firing at the entry points, in fact killing some Israeli soldiers in some of the entry points where food is being provided.”

“A third-grade student would understand Hamas has an absolute incentive to create stories of famine and starvation and deaths,” Kivetz declared. “The more civilians who die in Gaza, the better off Hamas is because they want Israel to stop. … After conduct[ing] their terrible atrocities, they want to escape this and still remain in power.”

“So Hamas really is incentivized, then, to block food and aid,” Hice responded, “particularly if they can manipulate the media and the U.N. to blame it on Israel.”

In fact, in “the recent decisions by the International Court of Justice [ICJ], [and] the International Criminal Court [ICC] … Hamas is getting what it wants,” speculated Kivetz. ICC prosecutors recently indicted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the preposterous charge of starving Palestinians, while the ICJ on Friday ordered Israel to “immediately halt its military offensive in Rafah” — Hamas’s last remaining stronghold in the Gaza Strip.

These preposterous accusations are fulfilling their intended effect: consolidating international opinion against Israel. Josep Borrell, the European Union’s high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, recently declared, “Starvation is used as a weapon of war. Israel is provoking famine.” The truth is, that Hamas is trying to use starvation as a weapon of war, while Israel is effectively forestalling a famine.

“To your question about who is propagating or creating this story of famine,” Kivetz summarized, “obviously Hamas is interested in that. The U.N. unfortunately, is part of that. They use the data that Hamas is providing. The data [are] wrong.”

BIBLICAL PROPHESIED END TIMES SIGNS

Posted on by

Watching the anti-Israel protests raging on campuses across the country reveals the demonic nature of the hatred of the Jewish people and their control of the land that God has given them. It also shows how easily the entire world under the influence of Satan can believe a lie, and then turn on any group and hate them. Jesus reminds us that we are destined to face this before His return. Regardless, the gospel will be preached worldwide, and the end will only come then.

“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:9-14

END TIMES BIBLICAL PROPHECIES UNFOLDING QUICKLY IN OUR TIMES

Posted on by

With anti-Israel and anti-Semitic demonstrations sweeping college campuses of America, Jonathan Cahn exposes the dark secrets the media will never tell you – from Wokism to Hamas to the mysterious Mufti of Jerusalem! This is a crucial video for understanding Biblical prophecy unfolding in our time.

Does this have anything to do with the end times? Events confirm that we are part of end times Biblical prophecy. The Bible said that before Jesus returns the tiny nation of Israel will be at the centre of world news and all nations will come against it. Israel’s rebirth in 1948 was miraculous. It had to happen for end-times Biblical prophecies to be fulfilled and is the most significant and miraculous of the end-times prophecies. Fulfilled Biblical prophecies are proof the Bible is the inspired word of God.

WORLDWIDE ANTI-SEMITISM IS A MAJOR END-TIMES SIGN

Posted on by

I was surprised when I saw how many young people were involved in recent anti-semitism, and pro-Palestine demonstrations across Australia. However, after a little research, I discovered Antisemitism is not a new phenomenon in Australia. In fact, it has a long history. Israel was established by God and of course, the God of this world, Satan has been intent on destroying it. Just look at its history, in particular the Holocaust.

Emergence of prominent anti-Jewish voices

There have been Jews in Australia from the time of British settlement. As research has shown, they arrived as convicts in chains, yet with the absence of institutional antisemitism in the colonies, they were able to thrive. In fact, a Jew was elected to the Legislative Assembly in Western Australia in 1848, a full decade before the first Jew was elected to Britain’s parliament.

Australia, however, was not immune from what the historian Robert Wistrich has described as “the longest hatred”. Open antisemitism started to become prevalent in the 1880s with the emergence of Australian nationalism and the campaign for federation. It was further fuelled by fears of an influx of Jews fleeing the pogroms in Russia.

Anti-Zionist agenda influenced by Soviet propaganda

After the war, The Bulletin, in particular, continued its anti-Jewish immigration campaign with cartoons depicting Jewish stereotypes. The sentiments around immigration were summed up by Henry (“Jo”) Gullett, a Liberal member of federal parliament, who said: “We are not compelled to accept the unwanted of the world at the dictate of the United Nations or anyone else. Neither should Australia be a dumping ground for people whom Europe itself, in 2,000 years, has not been able to absorb.”

In response to the anti-Jewish hysteria, Arthur Calwell, the newly appointed minister of immigration, introduced administrative policies that ensured the Jewish community remained a tiny minority (0.5%) of the population. These restrictions included a 25% limit on Jewish passengers on ships bound for Australia, which was later extended to planes.

A cartoon from The Bulletin.

This cartoon, from The Bulletin in December 1946, shows Immigration Minister Arthur Calwell playing on the Jew’s harp and, as with the Pied Piper, bringing in the Jews as ‘imports’, while pushing out white Australians as the ‘exports’. 

Locally organised antisemitism also emerged in the 1950s and 60s. A young journalist, Eric Butler, promoted the Douglas Social Credit movement, which blamed the banking system for the Great Depression and, by implication, the Jews.

After the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, some on the far left in Australia began promoting an anti-Israel agenda, particularly on university campuses. In 1969, the Sovetskaya Rossiya newspaper compared Zionism with fascism, implying Jews were Nazis. It also published an article saying “Zionism is the ideology that justifies war, killing, and oppression”. The official Soviet newspaper, Pravda, referred to “the Israeli barbarians” and “a reactionary Zionist doctrine”.

The impact of this anti-Zionist rhetoric often morphed into antisemitism on Australian campuses. The Australian Union of Students, for example, had come under Trotskyist and Maoist influences in the early 1970s and proposed anti-Israel resolutions. Members of the Jewish Students movement who campaigned against these resolutions were physically attacked.

This first picture shows the Jews in the UK demonstration against the anti-semitism of the UK Labour Party.

After the Hamas attacks on October 7, this anti-Israel narrative developed by the Soviets decades ago has again become part of the antisemitic discourse we’ve seen both in Australia and around the world. It coalesces with the theme that Zionism is the new Nazism. These issues have again been magnified on university campuses.

Research into current antisemitism has demonstrated it takes three principal forms. It begins with religious anti-Judaism, then mutates into racial antisemitism, and, most recently, political antisemitism associated with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, in which ostensible criticisms of Israel can morph into an irrational hatred of Jews.

Those with antisemitic beliefs continue to propagate traditional anti-Jewish stereotypes, such as the “international Jewish conspiracy” and “Jewish-Nazi analogy”, linked to Holocaust denial. Conspiracy theories emerged again during the COVID pandemic, with some right-wing groups claiming it was a Jewish plot.

We know that this hatred of the Jews will only escalate and apart from Jesus returning to rescue the nation at the battle of Armageddon the Jews would be exterminated.

The Battle of Armageddon is described in more detail in Revelation 19:11-21, where it portrays a dramatic confrontation between the forces of good, led by Jesus Christ (the rider on a white horse), and the forces of evil, led by the Antichrist, and the false prophet. The Antichrist gathers “kings” in a place called Armageddon. These kings, loyal to the antichrist, will gather their armies to wage war against the people of God. Jesus soundly defeats them. This battle results in the defeat of the enemies of God and the ultimate triumph of righteousness.

We also know that Jesus will rule all nations from Jerusalem. Israel the nation God established will be the ruling nation for the last 1000 years of this cursed Cosmos. People will still be born and die during Jesus’ Millennial reign, but they will live longer, so we know the curse is not entirely lifted from our Cosmos.
