WiIl We Ever Learn?

Monday, February 18, 2013  

I am not predicting End Time, but our spiritual enemy seems to be  hard at work.

 “For behold, in those days and at that time, When I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat   Then I will enter into judgment with them here on behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations, AND THEY HAVE DIVIDED UP My land” (Joel 3:2 )

 Hey Gang:  The president announcement that he is going to go to Israel in the coming month to get the parties to the talking table and fix the problem that has persisted since Hagar and Ishmael were sent packing by Sarah, and Esau got snuffed out of his birthright.   

 When I heard this announcement, I immediately took inventory of my surroundings, laid in a few extra provisions and filled the wood box to the hilt, for such announcements do have a history or woe that followed shortly after they were initiated since the focus will be for Israel to give land and Jerusalem for peace.

 Did you notice that shortly after John Kerry was approved to be Secretary of State by the Senate, he announced he would be donning his diplomat’s hat and heading to the most sensitive spot of the world (Israel), to prepare the way for our exalted leader to do what a ‘skillion’ people have failed to do - get the parties to sit down at a table and put thousands of years of hatred and mistrust behind them and come up with a solution to the number one problem in the world.

 John Muncy (I don’t know who John Muncy is but his letter seemed to make sense to me) recently published an excellent letter pertaining to the folly of this type of approach to solving the problem.  In it he wrote,” I have 75 examples of major storms striking our country each time our nation’s leaders try to force the hand of the Israeli leaders to give away their promised/covenant land in exchange for peace.”

  It is interesting to note that within days of Kerry’s announcing that he would be going to Israel to put pressure on them to give away more Covenant Land, a major storm hit Massachusetts.  As Muncy in his letter and Koenig, in his book Eye to Eye, clearly explained, this is not a good idea.  Note the Scripture of the day, Joel made it pretty clear that God takes a dim view of we earthly folks trying to put Israel in the shoe box, and then sealing it shut, and burying it in a cave someplace.

 Paul wrote an irrevocable law, “Be not deceived, God is not mocked, whatever he sows, that will he reap”.  (Gal 6:7).  Obediah 1:15 clearly states: “For the day of the Lord draws near on all the nations.  As you have done, it will be done to you.  Your dealings will return on your own head.”   

 The Question, “Will we learn before it is too late? God made it very clear in Genesis 12, “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse those who curse you.” 

 Again, quoting from John Muncy’s letter, “Like it or not, God judges those nations that cross over His clear covenant with the Jews.  Any time you want to test His authority and power to make you miserable, try touching the “apple of His eye (see Zechariah 2:8).  And He as many ways of making us miserable.” 

 Sooooo, my  friends, button down the hatches, lay in some extra provisions and make your insurance is up to date.  Also keep in mind, if there is no Israel, then Jesus cannot return again and all the promises He made about Israel are bogus.  And you can bet your sweet bippy, you can take each one of Jesus’ promises to the bank. 

 Blessings,

Gramps
