Jewish and Christian Persecution

Prophecy Update: January 18, 2019

I am reading a book on the history of the Mossad, which is the CIA of Israel. It is an interesting book because it catalogues why Israel needed to develop a group dedicated to protecting Jews. The book is called: Rise and Kill First: The Secret History of Israel’s Targeted Assassinations by Ronen Bergman. The Mossad used two verses in Proverbs to describe the work they thought that God wanted them to do. Proverbs 11:14 “Where there is no guidance the people fall, but in abundance of counselors there is victory.” And Proverbs 24:6, For by wise guidance you will wage war and in abundance of counselors there is victory.” Since WW2 the Jews realized that they needed to rely on themselves to protect themselves. This was the powerful motivation to declare a state. As a nation, Israel could protect Jews and fight back when the world rose up to destroy them. The holocaust taught a hard and sobering reality: Jews need to protect Jews. None of the nations of the world came to the rescue of Jews in the holocaust. Most nations acquiesced to evil, many joined in on the massacre.

The Jerusalem Post reported this week on antisemitism in Europe:
A cautionary tale of European antisemitism: “If a recent large survey of antisemitism in Europe conducted by CNN is any indication, then there is truly reason to fear for the future of Jews on the continent. Unfortunately, in recent years, warnings of mounting European antisemitism have begun to resemble various traffic signs on the highway: little-noticed and largely unheeded. We have come to assume that, like the weather, all we can do in the face of European hatred of Jews is to shrug and move on with our lives. I am neither an alarmist nor a pessimist by nature. But anyone with even a modicum of historical memory cannot help but be frightened by what is happening in places such as Paris, London and Stockholm.”

I have been saying for several years that Jews should leave Europe before it is too late. Too many groups and governments are plain evil and wicked towards Jews. I believe that Britain is falling apart because they have embraced anti-Semitism. The Anglican Church and the government give more rights to Muslims then Jews. They tolerate evil and hatred being promoted against Jews and many wish to elect an anti-Semite leader in Jeremy Corbin. We have seen this before, in the 1920’s to 1940’s in Europe and the USA. The USA had its pro-Nazi groups and anti-Semitic groups that faded into the background as WW2 commenced. With the pro-Muslim movement in America, I believe the conditions are ripe In Europe and the USA to see a rearing of the ugly anti-Semitic head again.

If you need proof of nations joining in on the antisemitism, look at the UN today. It is a body dedicated to antisemitism with most of its decisions directed against the state of Israel and Jews no matter where they live. What Israel had to do after WW2 they have to do today. After the war, they had to track down SS officers and kill them because no one would help them bring them to justice. The big guys in the Nazi party they brought to judgment, but many officers who worked to kill Jews among the SS were repatriated and went back to living normal lives in Germany and other nations. Who is threatening Israel today? Mahmoud Abbas from the Palestinian Authority. He was given something that absolutely tells me that the UN hates Israel.

“Palestinians assume chairmanship of largest bloc of nations at the UN. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas assumed the chairmanship of the largest bloc of countries at the United Nations on behalf of “the State of Palestine” on Tuesday in New York City. The Palestinians are slated to serve as the leader of the bloc, known as the Group of 77, for the next year. The Group of 77 is a consortium of 134 developing countries that often works together in the UN General Assembly. The body was originally founded in 1964 with 77 countries, including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Thailand and India. Over the years, it has grown to include countries such as South Africa, Qatar, Cuba, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Singapore, and Angola, and currently represents some 80 percent of the world’s population. While it serves as the leader of the body, Palestine will be able to cosponsor proposals and amendments, make statements, and raise procedural motions. In October, both Israel and the United States expressed strong opposition to granting the Palestinians extra rights at the UN. Abbas told the Group of 77 on Tuesday that Israel was hindering development in the Middle East, and called for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.”

This global organization is dedicated to the destruction of Israel. Allowing Abbas to take this position of chairmanship, only serves the anti-Semitic goals of the Palestinian Authority. This is the largest bloc of nations at the UN and a man who desires to destroy Israel now runs it. It will not take long for this group to curse Israel. This is what Abbas said, “Israel’s continued colonization and occupation of the State of Palestine undermines our development and capacity for cooperation, coordination and obstructs the cohesive future development of all peoples of the region,” he told the gathering.” What he calls the state of Palestine is the State of Israel. God will have a thing to say about Abbas and the UN in their hatred and attack on Israel.

How about the World Council of Churches? They have a terrible track record when it comes to antisemitism. Consider this headline: January 2019, EAPPI: The World Council of Churches’ Training Camp for Anti-Israel Advocacy. This article tells about how the WWC works to hurt Israel and curse Jews. Founded in 2002, Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI) is the Geneva-based World Council of Churches’ (WCC) “flagship project” on the Arab-Israeli conflict. EAPPI, the World Council of Churches’ flagship project on the Arab-Israeli conflict, has brought 1,800 volunteers to the West Bank to “witness life under occupation.” The World Council of Churches does not run similar activities in other conflict zones. By singling out Israel, EAPPI embodies antisemitism, as defined in the International Holocaust Remembrance Association’s working definition.
• Despite marketing itself as human rights and protection program, EAPPI places
significant emphasis on political advocacy before, during, and after the trip.
When volunteers return to their home countries and churches, they engage in anti-Israel advocacy such as BDS (boycott, divestment, and sanctions) campaigns
and comparing Israel to apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany.

Notice that the World Council of Churches thinks that they represent the Christians of the world. A globalist organization that refuses to accept that God raised up Israel again on the earth. Globalist organizations will serve the antichrist when he rises. The World Council of Churches does not represent the Lord Jesus Christ nor does it represent the God of the Bible. They represent the false church that will rise in the last days. We were commanded to watch and pray, therefore, watching for organizations and nations that join the anti-Israel coalition is part of the task which Jesus has given us. It is easier than you think.

As I have studied the denominations in America, most of them are riddled with replacement theology. They believe that they are the replacement to Israel and that the current Israel is not Israel. It would be very strange if you ever heard sermons on Jeremiah 30 or Daniel 9 which catalog for us the things God is currently doing in the earth. God is moving and He is bringing Jews back to His land! This is the super sign in the earth for anyone paying attention to what God is doing. God has declared that He will bring the Jews back and that is what He is doing. Europe is currently experiencing such division that Jews will be again streaming back to the land. They will leave these nations because the nations of Europe are again gripped in antisemitism.

The World Council of Churches teaches replacement theology and supports the removal of Israel. They say that they are loving but they curse the Jews. They are like the churches in Europe who supported the Nazis and their hatred of Jews. Satan wants to finish what Hitler started. He has raised up Iran to push for the next holocaust. Iran has allies that agree with their anti-Israel views. The world made the decision to support a peace agreement with Iran that was as anti-Semitic as they come. President Trump pulled America out of the deal and the world was shocked. Why were they shocked?

The world still wants Israel to lose and lose big to the Iranians and the Muslims. Europe has rejected Trump and his view of Iran but they are hurting big time. They are being cursed by God for their antisemitism. Britain is falling apart because they would rather support Muslims and the Muslim view of life. They have become anti-Christian and anti-Semitic. A study done in Britain in 2009 called “Marginalizing Christians” had this to say:
When ‘diversity rules’ are used to justify suspending a nurse who offered to pray for a patient’s recovery, as happened to Caroline Petrie on 17 December 2008, something has gone very wrong in modern Britain. This report examines the growing marginalization of Christians and catalogues cases of discrimination.
The same is happening in the USA, consider this article, The Anti-Christian State of California: In a state ruled by a former Jesuit, perhaps we should not be shocked to find ourselves in the grip of an incipient state religion. Of course, this religion is not actually Christianity, or even anything close to the dogma of Catholicism, but something that increasingly resembles the former Soviet Union, or present-day Iran and Saudi Arabia, than the supposed world center of free, untrammeled expression. We need to pray for Christians and Jews who are increasingly facing persecution. The rise of anti-Semitism and Christian persecution tells us that we are in the last days!

Just recently several ministries in California have been impacted by the anti-Christian nature of California. An article called “Christians Scared Away From California” highlights some of the problems. “For more than 55 years, Summit Ministries has held conferences at its headquarters in Manitou Springs, Colo., and across the nation, training nearly a half-million young Christians to become leaders in their schools, communities, churches, families, and country. But the group has had to cancel its June 10-23 and June 24-July 7 sessions at Biola University near Los Angeles due to concerns that California will forbid some of what it teaches.” Also there is this: “A network of companies including Apple, Google and Amazon are fighting a proposal before Kansas lawmakers that would allow adoption and foster care organizations to refuse placements to gay and lesbian couples based on religious beliefs.” Our rights as Christians are being taken away in several states. When that happens, the gospel becomes a much more powerful tool. Share it, live it, preach it, the souls of many are at stake! Maranatha!

About Joe

We live in the last days and the Bible commands us to watch for the Lord’s coming. I have a keen interest in history, prophecy and current events. I read widely about political and military developments and write a weekly blog from the things I follow. My special interest is in Middle Eastern affairs.

Since I was in college, I have also studied how God judges nations. It all started in Buck Hatches’ class at Columbia Bible College in 1979.

I fell in love with God’s word and especially the prophets. The results of this interest led me to writing The ‘I’ Judgements: Four Sins that Bring about the Fall of Nations. It serves as a warning to the United States, showing biblically of what we need to repent.
