Israel, the United States, and the "Strong Delusion"

Israel, and the United States, and the "Strong Delusion"

2Th 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
2Th 2:13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

In this Epistle Paul warns of the dangers to the Apostates, or those that fall away from the true Gospel. In the end times, the times we live in now, those that call themselves the "Church", have as a whole lost their love of the truth!

The "Church" for the most part has been deceived by false doctrines that "tickle their ears", or that justify the lusts of their flesh. One of the most common: The Prosperity Movement which insists that God wants "His" people to be rich. In the last blog we showed quite a few scriptures that prove that riches, far from being a blessing from God, are a hindrance to the salvation of those that chase after them, or try to hang on to them. The Dominionist Theory, basically says that God is calling "His" people to take over the country and the world so Christ can return. This particular theory is used to justify collaboration with the world to use military and political means to accomplish the goal of "taking back America, and the world for Christ".

Also included in this heresy is the belief that modern, secular Israel is the Israel of God, and that we're called to support them or be cursed. We're required to support them in their battles with their neighbors and their land expansion plans, and if we don't God will destroy America. The Bible verses most commonly used to support their false interpretations are:

1. Gen 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

This first one is used (by the Apostates) to show that we as a nation must support modern day Israel in all ways or else face the wrath of God. What it doesn't take into consideration is that the promise is to Abraham, not Israel as a nation, as Abraham himself never even stepped foot into the Promised Land of Israel. Later in the Bible God makes the promise to Abraham's seed, which many in the "Church" falsely assume to be modern day, secular Israel. The Bible is clear that the seed of Abraham is Jesus Christ!

Rom 4:13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

Rom 4:14 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

Rom 4:15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.

Rom 4:16 Therefore it is faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father us all,

Rom 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.

Rom 4:18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

He, Jesus Christ, is the fulfillment of all the promises God made to Abraham and his seed! If the seed were only the Jews or Israelites of that age and the modern age then how could all the families of the earth be blessed by it? They couldn't be, of course. So then at the time of Christ's ministry on the earth, the Jews were indeed the seed of Abraham:

Joh 8:37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.

Sadly, Jesus here while acknowledging they are Abraham's seed by birth, states what will be their downfall: "my word hath no place in you." The rejection of the Messiah by the physical or biological seed, or the seed under the law, of Abraham would lead to their destruction, the destruction of their Temple and their City and there scattering to the 4 corners of the earth. Those that didn't believe His Word, in whom His Word had no place, were doomed:

Joh 8:24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

I am praying that those who are reading this are in accordance with what the Holy Spirit has revealed to us and many others.

Unfortunately, most of the "Church" today believes that a group of unsaved people calling themselves Jews and Israelites, living in a part of the land where ancient Israel was are the "Israel of God". I can assure you that the earliest disciples of Jesus did not believe that! This false belief leads to the "Strong Delusion" mentioned in 2nd Thessalonians Chapter 2 that started our article.

The belief that modern day, apostate, secular Israel is the true "Israel of God" gives moral and religious high ground to endless wars in the middle east. To the killing and horrible treatment of the people who rightly lived on the land that the unbelieving seed of Abraham was scattered from. A large portion of the modern "Church" support bringing back unbelieving people who call themselves Jews from all over the world and forcibly removing the existing owners, bulldozing their houses and sending them to refugee camps, imprisoning them, torturing them, and depriving them of the necessities of life. Many of today's "Churches" actually send money to Israel to accomplish these attrocities, called "Settlements". They actually believe God will bless them for it. Strong Delusion.

At this time, the U.S. and Israel are on the verge of starting World War III because Iran threatens to develop nuclear energy. Iran, a country that has not attacked another country in the entire history of the United States, is the target of international economic sanctions because it wants to develop nuclear energy. Modern day Israel has between 200 and 300 nuclear weapons and no one says anything about that. But if Iran wants to develop nuclear energy the U.S. and Israel and their allies in hypocrisy and blood and oil lust are willing to start W.W. III over that. And the modern day Church cheers on the agressors and uses their political connections to try to push through ever more extreme measures through Congress until they have the war they desire, which may well bring on a world wide catastrophe. Strong Delusion.

The second verse used most by the apostates is:

Dan 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

This much misinterpreted verse is used by the apostates to say "he" the anti-christ, shall make a peace treaty with the new Israel, which will then rebuild the Temple and live under the Mosaic law again. In Bible prophecy one week equals 7 years and in the middle of the 7 years the anti-christ will turn on Israel, "cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease" by sitting in the rebuilt Temple, calling himself God and demand that the "Israelites" worship him. They'll refuse and then the anti-christ will destroy most of the world and the "Israelites" except for a remnant and at the last moment Jesus will return and the remnant will then accept Him as Messiah and they'll be saved, and so will all Israel be saved too. Of course the "Church" according to these end time delusions, will be gone already, raptured away before God pours out His vengeance on the unbelievers. Sound like a fairy tale? That's because it is!

2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

In truth, which we strive for and has been received through the Holy Spirit, the prophecy the Angel Gabriel gave to Daniel has already been fulfilled! It concerns the 70 weeks or 490 years from the return of the Israelites to their lands from their Babylonian captivity, the rebuilding of the Temple in times of trouble, to the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem after the rejection of Jesus Christ by the physical seed of Abraham.

Jesus Himself predicted it, that and more, the cost of their rejecting Him:

Mat 23:32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
Mat 23:33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Mat 23:34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
Mat 23:35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
Mat 23:36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
Mat 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Mat 23:38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
Mat 23:39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Or, until they accept Jesus as the Messiah! For you, for me, for anyone, Jew or gentile, the only way to Salvation is Jesus Christ!

Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Mat 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

And again Peter under the influence of the Holy Spirit prophesies to the Jews in the Synagogue:

Act 3:13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
Act 3:14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
Act 3:15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
Act 3:16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
Act 3:17 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
Act 3:18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
Act 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
Act 3:20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
Act 3:21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.
Act 3:22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
Act 3:23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
Act 3:24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
Act 3:25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
Act 3:26 Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

A merciful, loving God even after they killed His only begotten Son, still had His servants preaching the Gospel to them and some listened, some did indeed convert and be healed! But most did not and they "which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people." After Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans, the Jews which survived were scattered over the face of the earth, those that were saved beforehand were long gone and not harmed by the destruction of the Temple or Jerusalem itself! From either the mouth of our Lord and Savior or by the Holy Spirit of God they were warned what was going to happen to the unbelieving Jews and were led away. A remarkable story of prophecy fulfilled and something we can all put our faith in and get strength and courage from, amen!

So Brethren, have the Jews in Modern day Israel accepted Jesus? No they haven't, in fact, it's illegal to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to Jews in Israel! Punishable by deportation and up to 5 years imprisonment. Now anyone reading this, can you tell me they are the "Israel of God"? Do you still believe that? If so, you too are a victim of "Strong Delusion"!

Let us return to Gen 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee:

How could we as disciples of Jesus Christ bless anyone more so than to preach the true Gospel to them? In fact what the Jewish and Christian Zionist apostates are doing is cursing those in modern day secular Israel and themselves! How so? By supporting those that won't allow the Gospel of Jesus Christ to be preached! But as is the case in modern "Israel" those who preach the Gospel to the Jews in that country will be deported, and or imprisoned, what's the Biblical answer?

Mat 10:14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Mat 10:15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
Mar 6:11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
Luk 9:5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
Luk 10:10 But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
Luk 10:11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
Luk 10:12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
Luk 10:13 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
Luk 10:14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
Luk 10:15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
Luk 10:16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.

As disciples of Jesus Christ we are called to make disciples of, or preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all the nations of the earth, and if a certain house or city or nation rejects the Gospel, then it's clear from the above verses what we are to do, and also clear what God will do. Don't be deceived into supporting the rich men of the earth that oppress us, don't give them a moral or religious high ground to use in their wars of empire, in their raping and pillaging of the peoples of the earth. Do not have the blood that they have on their hands on your hands also. The secular nations of Israel and the United States and others will indeed continue to kill the innocent and steal the lands and resources of the earth, but, as Christians, we should have absolutely no part in it! Repent from not loving the truth of the Gospel and be healed of the "Strong Delusion".

God bless you and yours,

Your Government is the Enemy

 

Your Government is the Enemy

 

Nothing new or revolutionary about that title, just that it’s true on a Global scale, COVID proved it. No matter where you live on the earth, your government is the enemy; they’re implementing policies that will lead to you, your children and family, friends and acquaintances deaths.

 

They’ll still point to outside forces to distract you “The Russians!”, “The Chinese!”, “The Iranians!” ad infinitum. Of course they’re always happy to kill off millions and make large profits selling war munitions, but your government is there because the same forces that perpetrated COVID made sure they had all their puppets in place.  They control all aspects of your lives, governments, medical treatment, schools, news, entertainment, even religious institutions by controlling the supply of money your government issues.

 

Let me clarify further: World War III is the governments of the world against its own citizens.

 

Rev 18:1 - 5 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
