A Cup Of Drunkenness
Yesterdays non-veto vote at
the UN from the United States, sent a clear message to the world at large, they
don't regard Israel...at all.
It has been evident through
the past eight years that Obama has no love at all for Israel, or the Jewish people. It is a huge conundrum for us
Christians here in the States as to why the Jews would even think of backing
Obama but they do. Makes no sense to us.
It is also apparent to the
Christians that Israel is right in the midst of fulfilling Bible Prophecy.
Lets look at it.
Jesus came and was rejected
by His people and nation Israel. God gave the responsibility of sharing His message
to followers of Yeshua, Jesus.
God allowed the Romans to lay
waste to Jerusalem and He dispersed the Jews across the world. He did
not allow His chosen people the Jews to be utterly destroyed. Instead He has
given them unique talents to survive while Christ has built His Church over
this past 2,000 years.
To the Jew, they have no mind
for their Messiah, God says in His word that a blindness has come over the Jew.
Fast forward to 1948. Israel is reborn, from almost 2,000 years of destruction.
The land was in a state of desolation.
Mark Twain visited the land
in 1867. He wrote about the Jew and the Land. I'll let his words speak
On The Jew
"If
the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one quarter of one percent of
the human race. It suggests a nebulous puff of star dust lost in the
blaze of the Milky Way. Properly, the Jew ought hardly to be heard of,
but he is heard of, has always been heard of. He is as prominent on the
planet as any other people, and his importance is extravagantly out of proportion
to the smallness of his bulk.
His contributions to the world’s list of great names in literature, science,
art, music, finance, medicine and abstruse learning are also very out of
proportion to the weakness of his numbers. He has made a marvelous fight
in this world in all ages; and has done it with his hands tied behind him. He
could be vain of himself and be excused for it. The Egyptians, the
Babylonians and the Persians rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor,
then faded to dream-stuff and passed away; the Greeks and Romans followed and
made a vast noise, and they were gone; other people have sprung up and held
their torch high for a time but it burned out, and they sit in twilight now,
and have vanished.
The Jew saw them all, survived them all, and is now what he always was,
exhibiting no decadence, no infirmaties, of age, no weakening of his parts, no
slowing of his energies, no dulling of his alert but aggressive mind. All
things are mortal but the Jews; all other forces pass, but he remains.
What is the secret of his immortality? "
- September 1897 (Quoted in
The National Jewish Post & Observer, June 6, 1984)
The Land
“ ...[a] desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds-a silent mournful expanse....A desolation is here that not even
imagination can grace with the pomp of life and action....We never saw a human
being on the whole route....There was hardly a tree or a shrub anywhere. Even
the olive and the cactus, those fast friends of the worthless soil, had almost
deserted the country.”
- 1867 (Quoted in Mark Twain,
The
Innocents Abroad. London:
1881)
God says to the Land
Ezekiel 36: 6-12
6 “Therefore prophesy concerning
the land of Israel, and say to the
mountains, the hills, the rivers, and the valleys, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I have spoken
in My jealousy and My fury, because you have borne the shame of the nations.”
7 Therefore thus says the
Lord God: “I have raised My hand in an oath that surely the
nations that are around you shall bear their own shame.
8 But you, O mountains of
Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches and yield your fruit to My people
Israel, for they are about to come.
9 For indeed I am for you,
and I will turn to you, and you shall be tilled and sown.
10 I will multiply men upon
you, all the house of Israel, all of it; and the
cities shall be inhabited and the ruins rebuilt.
11 I will multiply upon you
man and beast; and they shall increase and bear young; I will make you
inhabited as in former times, and do better for you than at your beginnings.
Then you shall know that I am the Lord.
12 Yes, I will cause men to
walk on you, My people Israel; they shall take
possession of you, and you shall be their inheritance; no more shall you
bereave them of children.”
God said He was
going to bring Israel back into the land, and in
1948 this happened. A reading of Ezekiel 36-39 will detail what has already
happened in our lifetime and what IS coming on Israel.
Now, lets look at yesterday.
The UN told Israel they cannot build in their land. The old names are Judea
and Jerusalem. What does God say about this?
Zechariah 12: 1-3
12 The burden[a] of the word of the Lord against Israel. Thus says the Lord, who stretches out the
heavens, lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within
him:
2 “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to
all the surrounding peoples, when they lay siege against Judah and Jerusalem.
3 And it shall happen in
that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who
would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the
earth are gathered against it.
To the UN, I would say to be
aware that your actions are against God Himself. You will lose.

Four weeks before he leaves the White House, Nobel Peace Prize laureate
Barack Obama betrayed the principles of peace, the State of Israel and
America’s values by letting a lynch mob at the United Nations mug the only
democracy in the Mideast with a resolution that calls for no Jews to live in
the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem or to pray at the Western Wall,
the last remnant of the Second Temple of antiquity.
This obscenity, on the eve of Chanukah, when the ancient Israelites freed
the Holy City
and the Second Temple
from pagans, should have been immediately vetoed by Israel’s
ally, the United States.
Instead, President Obama stood aside as the UN Security Council voted
unanimously for a measure which has the force of international law.
Ostensibly aimed at Israeli settlements on the disputed West Bank, which
should be subject to direct negotiations with the Palestinians, the text
declaims that Israeli presence on “territory occupied since 1967, including
East Jerusalem, has no legal validity and constitutes a flagrant violation
under international law and a major obstacle to the achievement of the
two-State solution and a just, lasting and comprehensive peace.”
In the real world outside the Turtle
Bay nuthouse
dominated by dictators and tyrants, a “just, lasting and comprehensive peace”
will come only when, after decades of avoiding talks, Palestinians sit down
with Israel
and cut a deal.
It’s going to be hard for both sides, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu and all of his predecessors back to 1948 have waited for an Arab
partner. Netanyahu is still waiting. Now, the Palestinians and their weak,
corrupt leader, Abu Mazen, will believe they will never have to negotiate since
the UN has already decided.
Settlements are not the problem. The lack of peace is. And there is no
peace because Netanyahu is sitting at the peace table by himself.
Instead of making a two-state future more likely, Obama has done the
opposite.
While it’s true that only one President serves at a time, Donald Trump
was absolutely right to demand a veto. As was the GOP leadership in Congress.
As was Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer. But Obama and Secretary of State
John Kerry, who is frustrated that he’s not going to get a Nobel Peace Prize to
match Obama’s, didn’t care.
So Obama and Kerry broke with decades of American practice and let the
wolves at Israel.
Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon, outnumbered and without even a vote,
asked: “Would you ban the French from building in Paris?”
But logic didn’t prevail. Illogic hatred for the Jewish state did.
Who cares that right next door to Israel
in Syria,
a bloodbath is displacing millions? It’s time to get the Jews because America
has stood down.
Not everyone is unhappy. The terrorists of Hamas, who control Gaza
like a prison, cheered: “We emphasize the need to turn such a resolution into
action, not only to halt settlements but to eradicate Israel’s
occupation in all its forms.”
That means, after Jerusalem
is cleared of Jews, next up is Tel Aviv.
What a nice Chanukah gift from Obama to the people of Israel.
It is my prayer that God will
not split our land like we just voted to split HIS land.
Remember we have a massive
earthquake fault zone which runs smack dab in the middle of the US from the Gulf of Mexico to
almost Canada.
The New Madrid Fault Zone
NEW MADRID:
Most of the major earthquakes in the world occur at tectonic plate
boundaries where land masses are colliding or pushing past one another. But in
the middle of the country lurks a geological enigma near New Madrid,
Missouri, that has produced
some of the largest quakes on record for the United
States but has yet to be fully
explained by scientists.
"It’s a big mystery," said geologist Eugene Schweig of the U.S.
Geological Survey, who has studied the area for 23 years. "New Madrid
is about as far from a plate boundary as you can get."
In 1811 and 1812, a swarm of at least three massive earthquakes struck
near New Madrid,
the largest of which exceeded a magnitude 8 and caused violent, damaging
shaking in an area 10 times larger than did the 1906 earthquake. The quake was
felt over an area of two million square miles — nearly two-thirds of the
country.
During the quakes, the ground rose and fell, trees were bent, deep cracks
opened up in the ground, large landslides swept down hills, huge waves washed
boats out of the Mississippi River and river banks, islands and sand bars gave
way.
We have played with fire, God have mercy on
us.
