THOU (GOD) shalt arise and have mercy upon Zion; for the time to favor her, yea, THE SET TIME, IS COME. For THY servants take pleasure in her stones [Even though she has lain in shambles for almost 2000 years.] and favor the dust thereof. SO THE HEATHEN (This means all people that are against Israel and those who protest against her throughout the ages.) SHALL FEAR THE NAME OF THE LORD, AND ALL THE KINGS OF THE EARTH THY GLORY. WHEN THE LORD SHALL BUILD UP ZION, HE SHALL APPEAR IN HIS GLORY. (Psa. 102:13-16 KJV)
Yes, GOD does have appointed times for Israel, and all mankind. “These are the LORD’S APPOINTED FEASTS, the sacred assemblies YOU ARE TO PROCLAIM AT THEIR APPOINTED TIMES.” (Lev.23:4, Berean Standard Bible) “Can we believe the Berean version of the Bible? YES! We can! Read Acts 17:10-15 then read about these same people years later when Paul and Timothy returned to preach again in Berea. (Acts 20:3-4) Did you notice the Bible says these Jewish people were “MORE NOBLE THAN OTHERS IN THESSALONICA?” It explains that they gladly received the words of Paul, but they did even more, for they actually searched the scriptures to see if Paul was right in all the things he said. “Search the scriptures, for in the them YE think YE have eternal life, AND THEY ARE THEY WHICH TESTIFY OF ME (JESUS).” (John 5:39)This led them to believe in JESUS CHRIST. All the scriptures they had were the written words of Moses and the Prophets, and the Psalms. (Luke 24:44) “Wherefore the LAW was our Schoolmaster to bring us unto CHRIST, that we might be justified by faith.” (Gal.3:24) (The Psalms were written by different authors, although most were songs written by King David. It took about 1000 years to compile all the Psalms from Moses to Ezra. Moses only wrote one Psalm and that is Psalm 90.)
GOD chose Jerusalem to be the “Center of the Earth.” “Thus saith the LORD GOD; This is Jerusalem: I have set it in the midst (middle) of the nations and countries that are round about her.” (Ezk.5:5) When Abraham was 100 and Sarah was 90 GOD gave them a “Miracle Son.” Every Jew alive today is the result of a “Miracle Birth.” GOD then gave Abraham the promise of a land and it is irrevocable. (Deut.9:4) GOD not only started Israel as a “Miracle Nation” but HE also keeps them as one. (Psalm 89) GOD said the Jews would be disobedient and they were. GOD said the Jews would be dispersed and they were. GOD said the Jews would be discredited and they were. The world has tried and tried to eradicate the pure Hebrew language, but GOD said HE would turn to them a pure language so they could worship HIM with one consent. (Zep.3:9) After all their dispersal around the world they still maintain their pure language. No other people or race on earth can make that claim. But GOD said the Jews could no more be destroyed than could the sun and moon and stars be destroyed. (Jer.31:35-37) Anyone stupid enough to believe they can ever rid the world of the Jews have to first tell GOD how high is “up.” Then they have to remove all the heavenly bodies we see daily. GOD said HE would cast off the Jews when man can tell HIM what this earth is suspended on. They are truly a “Miracle Nation.” They stand beside the graves of their persecutors. They continue to live on. When they returned to “THEIR LAND” not the “non-people” called Palestinians, it was a virtual desert and covered with rocks, but today it blooms like a garden. Every Jew in existence today is here to “PROVE GOD’S KEEPING, PRESERVING POWER FOR HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE.”
Throughout history the Devil has tried to eradicate this people and obliterate GOD’S WORD, but he has failed miserably. Satan used the Pharaoh of Egypt to diminish GOD’S chosen people, but he lost his firstborn son and then lost his mighty army in a pool of water. The Red Sea could not drown these people. The whale of Jonah could not digest them. Nebuchadnezzar’s fiery furnace could not burn them. Belshazzar’s lions could not eat them. Haman’s gallows could not hang them, but he died on his own gallows. Dictators around the world have tried and tried to rid the world of the Jews, but the Dictators are dead and many are forgotten, but the Jews live on. Many nations have tried to assimilate them to rid them of their GOD, language, and laws, but they live on. “They wouldn’t bend, they wouldn’t bow, they wouldn’t burn .”For about 19 centuries other people and nations have tried to dominate them and their “Promised Land” but they have returned. GOD preserved them as a nation and as an identifiable people. GOD said HE would visit their sins with stripes and HE has. They suffered greatly under Pharaoh, Nebuchadnezzar, Alexander the Great and the Greeks, Nero and the Romans, the Turks and the Ottoman Empire, under Hitler, under Russia, and under the “moon god worshiping hoards of hell.” They have endured because GOD said they would.
Ever since the 7th century AD the world has tried hard to make the “moon god worshiping hoards of hell, known as Muslims” a legitimate form of “TRUE GOD WORSHIP” because they can trace their lineage to Abraham, but remember they came through the act of “FORNICATION.” “A bastard shall NOT ENTER INTO THE CONGREGATION of the LORD, even to his tenth generation shall he NOT enter into the congregation of the LORD.” (Deut.23:1) “But, Brother Andy, I thought GOD loves everybody and all are welcome.” I hate to burst your little bubble you live in for all that rhetoric is a lie from the pits of hell. I know it sounds good but it is still the same lie the Devil told Eve, “Thou shalt surely not die.” It is being sounded from thousands of pulpits everyday and still it is a lie.
“As it is written, Jacob (This includes all his descendants.) have I LOVED, BUT ESAU HAVE I HATED.” (Rom.9:13) It sure is strange for Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles,(Rom.11:13) to still be preaching that GOD does hate some people. John wrote about 30 years later that GOD hated the Nicolaitans because of the doctrines they taught. (Rev.2:6) Their main doctrine was GOD loves everybody and HE will overlook all your sins if you just ask, again the same lie the Serpent told to Eve. Sounds good, but there is more to it than that. There has to be repentance, and water baptism and an infilling of the HOLY GHOST.
GOD promised Israel a “MIRACULOUS RESTORATION.” “And I will bring again the captivity of MY people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens and eat the fruit of them.” (Amos 9:14) GOD said HE would bring them back TO THEIR OWN LAND and no one will root them up again, so GOD and I don’t care what the filthy, godless leaders of the world think, GOD is still in control. On May 14, 1948 those old dried up and scattered bones came together after 1900 years and declared their independence. (Ezk.37:1-14) (The background stories concerning this mighty miracle that was unheard of in history and has not been repeated since concerning a nation, a people, or a religion, has gone down in the annuals of history as the GREATEST MIRACLE OF ALL TIME. I usually speak of some of these events and maybe one day I will try to put it all in perspective.)
At the very moment it was announced that Israel was back in their land 650,000 Jews were surrounded by 6 Arab nation dead set on driving them into the sea and spilling Jewish blood all over the land. Five of the six nations swept in from the East and Egypt from the West. All six of these nations were better prepared for war than the “weakly Jews.” GOD doesn’t care about numbers, HE cares about “FAITH.” Up until that time it was unlawful for any Jew to possess any type of weapon. The war actually had its smoldering embers lit on November 30, 1947 and it grew from there and lasted until the “good old fearless, moon god worshipers” cried out to the newly formed United Nations (formally League of Nations) to intervene on behalf of the “cry baby cowards of moon god worshipers.” By the time the U N intervened these “dry bones” were 150 miles inside of Egypt ON JULY 20 1949. HOW IN THE WORLD DID THAT HAPPEN?
The Jews had so few weapons that they took old cars and buses and welded boiler plates on them to make them look like Jeeps and Tanks. They painted hoe handles and boom handles to look like rifles so it would appear they had more guns. As the “moon god” worshipers advanced through the groves (The groves is where all false gods had altars.) they encountered swarms of bees. Imagine Jews with bees when the Bible said their land flowed with milk and honey. The invaders knocked over beehives and the bees attacked them. They dropped their weapons and fled in agony and fear. An American newspaper’s headlines said, “The Bees Fight For Israel.” When the bees settled down the Jews went and picked up the weapons, and they captured 20,000 of the enemy with only 400 Jews. The “Liberal Politicians and News Media” refuse to admit to these miracle events Orchestrated By The Greatest Orchestra CONDUCTOR (GOD ALMIGHTY) of all time. As we speak Bible Prophecy is being fulfilled in the land of Israel.
GOD ordained Israel to be the “Spiritual Center” of the universe. JESUS THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD was born in Bethlehem, raised in Nazareth, preached and taught in Galilee, crucified and buried in Jerusalem, ascended back to HIS FATHER from the Mount of Olives and the Mount of Olives is where HE will return. (Zech.14:4) Israel is the “Prophecy Center” of the world. Prophecy is “Pre-written History.” If you want to know what GOD is doing just study Israel and Jerusalem in particular. Israel is the storm center of the world. GOD said all the world would burden themselves over Jerusalem and as we watch the events unfold we see the “storm clouds” that lead us to the Finale called the Battle, not of, but at Armageddon. (Rev.16:16) Israel is the peace center of the world. In Psalm 122:6, we are instructed to “pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” There will not be a lasting peace in Jerusalem until the PRINCE of PEACE returns to sit on the Throne of David. “For when they shall say, ‘Peace and safety’, then cometh SUDDEN DESTRUCTION, as travail upon a woman with child, AND THEY SHALL NOT ESCAPE.” (I Thess.5:3) When we pray for the peace of Jerusalem, we are actually asking “JESUS to come quickly.” (Rev.22:20) When JESUS returns then Israel will be the GLORY CENTER of the WORLD. “And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem, shall go up from year to year (a thousand years of peace) to WORSHIP THE KING, THE LORD OF HOSTS, AND TO KEEP THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES.” (Zech.14:6) Notice that this is one of those “Appointed Feasts” of the LORD. (Lev.23:4) Of all the “Appointed Feasts” this one (Feast of Tabernacles) is the only one that is scheduled by GOD to last for eternity. Sometimes in the Bible it is called “The Great Feast” and also referred to just as “THE FEAST.”
JESUS was born during the Feast of Tabernacles. John 1:14 tells us the “WORD WAS MADE FLESH AND DWELT AMONG US.” THE WORD DWELT COMES FROM THE SAME ROOT WORD AS DOES TABERNACLE. THIS FEAST IS SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS THE FEAST OF INGATHERING. This Feast centers on GOD dwelling with man, for we read many times in the scriptures that GOD said HE would dwell with us and we with HIM.
GOD not only made Israel a “Miracle Nation” but HE also keeps them as a “Miracle Nation.” (Read all of Psalm 89) The GREATEST MIRACLE of the last century was not “putting a man on the moon” or winning of two world wars, but the rebirth of Israel as a nation.
