THE JEWISH NATION, “FROM HEAVEN’S POINT OF VIEW”
“A PALISTINIAN STATE IN ISRAEL WOULD BE A BIBLICAL MONSTROSITY!” To consider the Jewish Nation as it now appears is to see a nation of unbelief, but not much longer. But to look at the Jews and their nation in Bible Prophecy is to see a great nation occupying the entire Promise Land. Several Arab nations, (Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, approximately half of Turkey and half of Iraq, etc.) will disappear completely. Israel will be the only nation left in the Middle East except Egypt and Assyria. “In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land” (Isaiah 19:23-24) All of this means “Peace in the Middle East.” The nation of Israel and every Jewish person that escapes the Antichrist’s Death Squads will be converted to Jesus Christ. When he appears they will see the “nail prints” in His hands and say to Him, “What are these wounds in thine hands?” (Zechariah 13:6b) This sermon is exciting because it clearly puts the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, in charge of all we see in the Middle East. It may look like the madman of Iran is at the helm of the future but he is but a whisper in the wind. When you pray for Jerusalem watch for the process to continue to unfold and the King of Kings to appear in the Heavens. After we are gone, then “Jacob’s Trouble” and following the pain of “Seven Years of Redemptive Cleansing,” His Return. Perfect peace will follow and righteousness will cover the earth as waters cover the seas. Please read slowly the entire Chapter of Jeremiah Thirty (30). It is a perfect Prophetic picture “FROM HEAVEN’S POINT OF VIEW” of the State of Israel written 2600 years ago by the Holy Ghost using God’s prophet. WARNING! Do not allow the spirit of evil to cause you to reject what God is doing with the Jewish people. Jesus said, “Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.”(St. John 4:22)

You are right on target with this, Pastor Joseph. Whatever gains Israel’s enemmies might get are only temporary, but this is not to minmize the very dire and immediate consequences that this world will face as it stubbornly persists in its unbelief and rebellion.
It is true that the Bible does often use symbolism in its prophetic passages, but all of it represent very real events that will certainly come to pass. With some research and effort, and with the help of the Holy Spirit, I believe anyone can at least get the fundamentals down. The Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24, Luke 21, and Mark 13) is the best place to start, in my opinion. All other Bible Prophecy can be linked to Jesus’ own words.
NOW would be a great time to start, don’t you think?

Dear Pastor,
Jeremiah is very clear about were the Lord stands on whats going on in and around Jerusalem.
You are right on target, and what the Lord has in store for Jerusalem can also be found in the Book of Obadiah. The voice of Jacob and the hands of Esau. The Lords good works are expressed in verses 17-21 which is the Lords victory over Edom. Just read this, this very morning.
Everything must be cleansed, every thing must be ready, everything must be ready to be Holy for the Lord Jesus The Christ, The King of Kings, Lord of Lords is coming… and every knee shall bow
God Bless

SHALOM SHALOM JERUSALEM…..PEACE BE TO YOU…..WHEN MESSIAH COMES TO TAKE YOU HOME MAY HIS PRAISE BE FOUND IN YOU….

All of us are basically stubborn people. God speaks to us through His Word, through Holy Spirit but we do not respond. He gives us gentle nudges, yet we remain stubborn and reject Him. Finally the law of the land and those in authority (whether we accept or not that He has a hand in their appointment)have to put it to us strongly enough so that we do not continue to reject. Some of us submit somewhere during this whole process, some do not, and have to face the natural consequences of their disobedience. In fact these ‘natural consequences” of disobedience” are probably beneficial( and engineered by Him) in bringing people to Him.Sometimes well meaning people of God “stand in the gap” based on their own perception and shallow contention that these stubborn ones should not suffer etc., and actually thereby prevent these stubborn ones from coming to Him.

Zechariah 13:8-9 makes it sadly clear that 2/3rds of Israelites alive at the Tribulation will be purged (the rebels) but 1/3 will be tried in the fire and refined to enter the Millennium. No one wants to see these Jewish souls perish but – there are some Jewish academicians in the United States who proclaim that Israel is an apartheid state and oppressive to the “Palestinians”. Nothing could be further from the truth. Many Jews in America could care less of what their brothers in Israel face today. I am confident that the final outcome for Israel is good – but not for the United States: Galatians 6:7, Job 4:8.

ISRAEL ENTITLED TO ALL ARAB LANDS FROM NILE TO EUPHRATES
Dear Joe Chambers,
I seems that God promised that Israel can have Northeastern Egypt to Nile river, a large part of Turkey, all of Lebanon, all of Syria, all of Jordan, all of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, United Arab Emeriates, Kuwait, Western Iraq, and some other Arab countries. The Arabs in the countries will have to move out, because that land belongs to Israel.
THE ARABS & MUSLIMS ARE NOT GOING TO LIKE TO HEAR THIS. THEY WOULD CONSIDER IT AN ACT OF WAR TO SAY ALL THESE LANDS BELONG TO ISRAEL. If a big name evangelist like Billy Graham, Pat Roberson, Frank Graham, Hal Lindasy, or other big name Evangelist said what you are saying, the MUSLIMS WOULD BE PROVOKED TO ANGER, AND WOULD START RIOTING IN THE STREETS. The Muslims are a violent people. You are telling the truth. Don’t be surprised if the Muslims hate you for this. It probably will not be possible fro Israel to obtain all these lands now. They are having a hard enough time holding on to what little they do have. WHEN THEY BUILDING HOUSING UNITS IN ISRAEL THE WORLD DIPLOMATIC COMMUNITY HOWLS LOUDLY ABOUT IT, ESPECIALLY IF ISRAEL BUILDS APARTMENTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS SURROUNDING THE JERUSALEM HISTORICAL DISTRICT, THAT THE PALESTINIANS WANT TO CLAIM FOR THEMSELVES, IF JEWISH NEIGHBORHOODS COMPLETELY SOUROND THE HISTORIC DISTRIC, IT BLOCKS PALESTINAN CLAIMS. THAT IS WHY THE WORLD HOWLS ABOUT JEWISH HOUSING CONSTRUCTION. LET THEM BUILD AS MANY HOUSING UNITS AS POSSIBLE AS FAST AS THEY CAN, NO MATTER HOW MUCH THE WORLD COMMUNITY HOWLS, EVEN IF IT STARTS A WAR SUCH AS PSALM 83 OR EZEKIEL 38 & 39. Those who war against Israel will lose. IN the Psalm 83 war Israel can capture at least some of these lands, though probably nor all of it. The can get Gaz, Sinai, all of Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, and maybe even part of Saudi Arabia. God says that he will make Jerusalem a BURDENSOME STONE to the world community, but it will not be burdensome to the Christians that support Israel. If you want to know why, is because it is like this. The Christians are standing on one end of a sesaw, the budensome stone falls and hits the other end, IT CATAPALTS US UP INTO THE RAPTURE, while it crushes the pagans. DOnt try to lift the stone, JUST STAND ON IT OR SIT ON IT. Maybe eve squeze a little EPOXIE-GLUE UNDER IT TO BIND IT EVEN MORE. to make it even harder for the Enemies of Israel to lift it.
WAHT DO THE ARABS AND MUSLIMS AND ARABS SAY ABOUT THE ARABS LANDS BELONGING TO ISRAEL ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE? WILL THEY RIOT IN THE STREETS? THEY WOULD CERTAINLY CONSIDER IT AN ACT OF WAR.
What do the Muslims think of what you said.
SIncerely,
Keith Black
SO don’t be surp
Jon Turbeville
I read your piece and found it interesting. There are several points that I do not see the same way you do. I am going to list those out and I would like to hear any arguments you may have….iron sharpening iron.
1. This point I agree with you, that Christians are not going to receive the Lord’s wrath!
2. No disagreements here.
3. No disagreements here. So far so good!
4. This is the first point of seeing differently. The Bible says our Lord will save us from His wrath, not tribulation. No where in the Bible is the “7 year tribulation” termed. Most get it from Daniel and the 7 year covenant. Most followers of end times say the entire 7 years is the tribulation. This is not in the Bible. We know we have 1260 days of Great Tribulation (except cut short), but the entire 7 years is not called the tribulation.
5. You say that the Pre-Trib Rapture is the only reasonable explanation of a time when some are taken and some are left? Really? If the ones taken (believers) were taken anytime prior to the very end, then some would be taken and some would be left. See below for further clarification of this point.
6. I agree…we will know the season though and I think we can agree that we are near.
7. ok
8. I agree with the point, but not with the explanation. First, I think you have to define revealed. Is revealed just showing up or is revealed knowing who somebody truly is? When the antichrist first shows up few really know who he is (specially Jews). He is not revealed until mid-way through the tribulation when he desolates the temple (what is the temple is another topic). As far as your explanation, it was not clear to me whether you thought the “Church” was the one who holds back or the Holy Spirit. I do not see either one as the one that holdeth back. The Holy Spirit’s role is “And He, When He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment.” – John 16:8 He guides us into all truth – John 16:13. As a result of the Holy Spirit one bears fruit. As far as I know, the Bible never gives the role of holding back to the Holy Spirit. Daniel 12 does speak about something that holds back…12:1 “And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.” So what is happening here. Michael (archangel) stands up or in other words stops holding back. Then, the Great Tribulation begins. Now, Daniel does not say Great Tribulation, but one cannot believe that the seals or birth pangs as Matthew calls them are a “time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation”. Birth pangs or the beginning of sorrows is not the worst ever seen. When is that? During the Great Tribulation. See this is not God’s wrath. This is Satan’s time that God allowed him. Yes, Jesus is opening the seals and allowing this, but it is not Him nor the angels that are causing the trouble. If the seals are God’s wrath, then who could stand against Him? No one. How could Satan cause the abomination of desolation at a time of God’s wrath? It does not make sense. When you compare scripture with Scripture then this makes a lot more sense. The Bible does say that we will be tried by fire….persecuted….we will have tribulations. If the rapture is after the seals (Matthew 24:30-31, Luke 21:27-28, Mark 13:26-27, Revelation 7:9) then it makes sense that some could be taken and some left behind. You might say we could know the day or the hour. No! We just know the season….between the 6th seal and the 7th seal. We have no idea the time span between those two events.
9. I agree….1 Thes. 4:16-18 sure sounds a lot like Matthew 24:30-31, Luke 21:27-28, and Mark 13:26-27 does it not?
We agree on a lot of parts. The main idea that separates you and me are whether the seals are God’s wrath or are they a tribulation to distinguish the wheat from the tares? If you have Biblical evidence that disagrees with the above info please let me know. We are all looking up for His return, but I also want to be prepared for what may occur according to my reading of Scripture. By the way, my viewpoint above is considered the Pre-Wrath Rapture viewpoint.
