Hi Mally,You stated:It is with great fascination that I read the letters from brothers and
sisters on the doves web site they bare wittiness to my spirit. that GOD is
reviling to us his plan of salvation for mankind, And ties together what I
believe the Lord has been showing me over these last few months, forgive me,
I was slow to respond to the Lords will, and the time is so short.
Yes brother Michael, the anti Christ will come out of Islam, and I believe
that he may well be the imam mahdi, ( and not just the nation of islam as
you propose though I believe there is a spirit of anti-Christ over that
nation.) whom Muslims believe will appear supernaturally as there saviour,
and when he does, he sets in motion the final moments of this age.I'd like to introduce a study surrounding this thing called the "beast from the earth" as it relates to Islam, Ishmael, Esau, Hagar and what the Bible calls mount Seir. From Wonderful One website.Why Is Nobody Watching Islam?
I have been perusing Christian chat boards and one thing is overtly prevalent. Nobody is paying any attention to Islam as a threat. Almost everybody is watching the European Union, the Untied Nations, the Alliance of Civilizations (AOC) and a myriad of other people, places or happenings. Almost all are ignoring Islam and it's continued rise to power.
One board commentator went as far as to say:
Quote:
The alliance mentioned in Ezekiel 39 and 39 may now be forming. But, I don't thinkg it's comepletely here yet. As far as the coming Mahdi being the anitchrist goes, this isn't something I'm familiar with so I can't realy comment.
BTW the Ezekiel 38 and 39 "alliance" does not form until AFTER the 1,000 years is over, just as stated in Revelation 20:7 & 8.
I am of the belief this is precisely what was prophecied in 2 Thessalonians 2:4;
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God , shewing himself that he is God.
Lucifer said he would sit in the "mount" (or high place) of the congregation in Isaiah 14:13;
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation , in the sides of the north:
I get nothing but flack for this, but, it goes without saying that if we are in the end times, and we are, we need to pay heed to ALL of the prophecies. We can't just pick the ones that make us feel good and secure.
We have been warned false teachers would come and my way of covetousness would make merchandise of the body of Christ.
Satan has said, and God has recorded it so it is a fact we need to heed. He said he would sit in as God, the temple of God shewing himself to be God. The body of believers is the temple. I have been over this enough to make the point. And if false teachers come and convince the body their story, or fable as the Bible calls it, is true, well then the lie "sits" on peoples minds as the truth.
Effectively the enemy now "sitteth in the temple."
What is important that is being completely overlooked is Islam and where they fit in all of this.
I want you to just think about something before going off on a rant becuase Michael has gone bonkers. Follow along.
What is the only entity on the face of the earth, outside of Judaism or Christianity, that claims roots back to Abraham?
Answer: Islam.
What is the only entity on earth that claims what Israel has is rightfully theirs?
Answer: Islam.
What is the only entity on earth that claims Jesus as one of their respected prophets yet outright denies He is the Son of God?
Answer: Islam.
What is the only entity on earth that is trying to eliminate Israel from existence?
Answer: Islam.
What is the only earthly entity that claims their prophet is the true Messiah of the world and Jesus will come with him to proclaim this?
Answer: Islam.
I could go on but, suffice it to say the end times prophecies of Israel call for the seed of all of the offspring from the line of Abraham not of the same bloodline as Judah and Jacob to come against them.
Islam claims it's lineage to Abraham through Ishmael, the bastard son of Abram by Hagar, Sarai's Egyptian handmaiden.
Genesis 16:15;
And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's name, which Hagar bare, Ishmael.
The problem is this was BEFORE God renamed Abram Abraham and made His covenant of the land with Abraham. Genesis 17:5;
Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
We are told Ishmael would be a wild man and he would live among his brethren. Genesis 16:12 ;
And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
God said he would be a great nation. Genesis 17:20;
And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation .
But the covenant was with Abraham through Isaac. Genesis 17:19;
And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him .
Now this isn't rocket science. The only earthly entity that claims to be one with the father of Jacob (Israel) through Ishmael, and is promised by God to be a great nation, is now trying to destroy the seed of his brother.
We see Esau and Jacob and again another brotherly feud.
Esau sells his birthright to Jacob and loses his blessing from Isaac, his and Jacob's father. And Esau threatens to kill his brother. Just like Cain and Abel. Genesis 27:41;
And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob .
But Rebekah warned Jacob and he fled. The anger has been seething ever since and it is going to come to a head.
I fully believe the beast from the earth seen in Revelation 13:11 is none other than Islam. Islam has "two horns" Shi'ite and Sun'ni sects. They try to come off as being peaceful like a "lamb" yet, well we see how they operate.
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
And it says this beast spake as a dragon and "exerciseth" the power of the first beast. Revelation 13:12;
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed
And we see that first beast as being the beast from the sea in verse 1 of Revelation 13;
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Now where can we find this beast from the sea again? How about Isaiah 27:1;
In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea .
We know Islam worships a false god and claims Allah is the true God. We know by denying Jesus as the Son they speak constant blasphemy.
And who do we know is identified as the dragon? That's right, Satan. Look at the metaphorical similarities.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent , called the Devil , and Satan , which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Isaiah called him a "crooked serpent." He called him a "piercing serpent" (as in the one responsible for piercing Jesus) even "leviathan" and the Devil and Satan. And notice Isaiah says God will punish him with His Sword. Who is the Sword? The Word of God, Jesus.
Islam is the only entity on earth that fits the prophetic scenario laid out in the Bible.
And the overlooked key is there is not one other earthly entity, besides Islam, that is attempting to destroy the chosen of God, Israel the seed of Jacob through Isaac and Abraham.
So why are none of the modern "scholars" and book writers and televangelists and internet guru's paying no attention to Islam? Because he has it set now that if anyone speaks against Islam you're in fear of being bombed or shot. Gee, does this sound familiar from Revelation 13:4 just before the 42 months he is given power in verse 15.
And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
I believe because they have been so deceived into watching Javier Solana and the EU and UN ans AOC and anyhting else that points away from the truth, that the enemy "sitteth in the templs of God shewing himself to be God" right now.
We were warned his would happen and nobody is even paying attention. I wonder why?
And it is the greatest deception in the Church body to date.YBIC,Michael deKruif
