Daniel,I agree with your posting 100%. After the rapture, who will be left in America? The homosexual liberals who always side with the muslims and nonstop appeasement. So America will not be able to take a stand against the Russian/Iranian invasion of Israel. Israel will be alone in the battle, EXACTLY where God wants them. God wants them to return to Him again. Right now the leadership in Israel is secular. Secular Jews do not believe in God, nor the power of prayer, nor in God's divine protection. Attitudes must change or Jews will die. THAT is what this whole last 7 years of Jacob's Trouble is all about. God wants an attitude change, a return to the former things, a return to the God of their fathers. With these frightening nuclear wars, God WILL get their attention. Remember Christ will not return to reign UNTIL the Jews CALL OUT FOR THEIR MESSIAH to Return. He has promised not to return until they do. These frightening world events and nuclear wars in their back yard will do the trick.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.Zec 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for [his] only [son], and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for [his] firstborn.So, as Luke warned us, as we see all these frightening things BEGIN to happen, LOOK UP for your redemption draweth nigh! We, as bible believing Christians are probably more stirred up about what is happening in the middle east than anyone else on the planet, because this war has thus far had only minor casualties and scrimmages.......we KNOW the end from the beginning from the scriptures, and thus KNOW the terrors that lie ahead not only for Israel but for everyone on the planet.Consequently, we are not to be caught up in the affairs of everyday life, living carelessly. We are to recognize the Signs of the Lords return and prepare ourselves accordingly. We are to be Watching for His Return. Christ promises us, that if we are WATCHING closely we will KNOW the very HOUR of His return, and not be taken by surprise.Rev 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Luk 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
1Th 5:2,3 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 1Th 5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 1Th 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 1Th 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as [do] others; but let us watch and be sober. 1Th 5:7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. 1Th 5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. 1Th 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, 1Th 5:10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. 1Th 5:11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. 1Th 5:12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; 1Th 5:13 And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. [And] be at peace among yourselves. 1Th 5:14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all [men]. 1Th 5:15 See that none render evil for evil unto any [man]; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all [men]. 1Th 5:16 Rejoice evermore.
Rev 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come.
Rev 22:12: And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward [is] with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.Rev 19:7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
Maranatha!
Deborah
