Prophecy Update: The Peace Deal: The Biblical View. 1/31/20
Many want to talk about the peace deal from the perspective of politics. I want to talk about the Bible! God told Abraham that the land of Israel would be given to his descendants and that is what happened. Gen.12:7 says, “The LORD appeared to Abram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to the LORD who had appeared to him.” Pay attention to what the Bible says, God is going to give the land to Israel! The world says that Israel took the land and it was taken by them illegitimately through war. Liberal interpreters try to convince everyone that when Joshua fought to conquer the land it was an illegitimate way of taking the land. Not so!!! God gave the land to Israel and Satan was convincing a people that they should resist Gods will and fight the Jews. The same pattern that happened the first time God gave the Jews the land is happening now, in our time!
In Joshua 24 God describes how He gave the land of Israel to its rightful owners. In Joshua 24:32 He says, “Now they buried the bones of Joseph, which the sons of Israel brought up from Egypt, at Shechem, in the piece of ground which Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for one hundred pieces of money; and they became the inheritance of Joseph’s sons.” Why did Joseph want to be buried in Israel and not Egypt where he was second in command behind Pharaoh? God tells us in Genesis 50. In that chapter, Joseph took the body of his father Jacob back to Israel to bury him in Hebron where Abraham, Isaac, Sarah, and Rebecca are buried. When Joshua the son of Nun invaded the land and conquered most of the land that God had promised, he buried Joseph bones in Shechem because that is where his father had purchased land. It was their homeland in other words. Hebron and Shechem are two cities, promised by God, purchased land by Abraham and Jacob, and the two cities that Muslims desecrate constantly!
For instance in OCTOBER 16, 2015, the Muslims attacked the tomb of Joseph in Shechem. The international community and the enemies of Israel call it Nablus. “A site in Israel that was the target of attacks by Palestinians on Thursday night has a name that sounds very clear: Joseph’s Tomb. Palestinian protesters set fire to a tomb revered by some Jews as the tomb of the biblical patriarch Joseph on Thursday. Joseph’s Tomb, which is a small stone structure located in the Palestinian occupied West Bank city of Nablus, was torched after the militant group Hamas called for a “day of rage” against Israel. Leading up to the attack on the Tomb, Jewish worshippers were permitted to visit the religious site once a month, though visits were coordinated with Palestinian authorities, according to the BBC.”
When Joshua was given Shechem, they went on top of the two mountains bordering Shechem, Mt. Ebal and Mt. Gerazim to say the blessings and curses from the two mountains. Israel is being told to give up the land that God gave Israel thru Joshua, say it is Palestine—seriously!
Any peace deal that does not give Shechem and Hebron to Israel is not biblical. These two major historical sites are vital to the plan of God. God will in time give these cities to Israel and the world will hate it as they have hated Israel from the beginning. Satan’s plan is easy to see, make two of the most important cities of Israel Palestinian so that Jews are banned from living there! The Peace plan does call for Israel to annex the Jordan Valley and the settlements in Judea and Samaria. I see this as part of Israel starting to get all of her land back. It is short of the goal however and it leaves 15 Jewish settlements in what will be Palestinian territory. Now Mahmoud Abbas and the International community say that any Palestinian land must be devoid of all Jews. Israel must have Muslims living in it, and Palestine cannot have Jews. It is racism and the world accepts and advocates this racism. Abbas also said, “a thousand no’s to this plan.”
Just before the deal was announced, Netanyahu spoke about it:
“We are not going to pass it by,’ PM tells Trump ahead of peace plan rollout: Ariel Kahana, Associated Press , Israel Hayom Staff Published on 01-27-2020. President Trump said this, “We’re going to show a plan. It’s been worked on by everybody and we’ll see whether or not it catches hold. If it does that would be great and if it doesn’t, we can live with it too. But I think it might have a chance,” he said. The proposal is expected to be very favorable to Israel, and Netanyahu has hailed it as a chance to “make history” and define Israel’s final borders. It is amazing that the Trump team and President Trump himself do not believe that this is going to work. Why did he do it? He did it because he shifted the burden to the Palestinians to accept the plan and they will reject it. Israel is blamed for the lack of peace and now Trump pushed it onto the Palestinians, he outsmarted them by getting Muslim nations to endorse it.
Trump unveils Middle East peace plan with two-state solution, tunnel connecting West Bank and Gaza: Let me summarize: The plan gives the Palestinians the power to govern themselves, but not to threaten Israel. They get the opportunity to internally handle their own affairs without interference from Israel in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank and Israel would handle protecting them from any outside threats. They get about as much land that they would have had before 1967 although in different parts of the land. That is a big problem! On the Israeli side, the plan says and I quote: “The nation state of the Jewish people that is recognized by all other countries. Any realistic peace proposal requires Israel to make a significant territorial compromise that will enable the Palestinians to have a viable state, respect their dignity, and address their legitimate national aspirations.”
This is horrible in my eyes but I recognize that God is moving to giving His land back to His people Israel, so it is a step in that process. The peace deal mentions this, “It must be recognized that the State of Israel has already withdrawn from 88% of the land it captured in the 1967 war. This vision provides for the transfer of a sizable territory by the state of Israel, territory that the State of Israel has asserted valuable legal and historical claims, which are part of the ancestral homeland of the Jewish people which must be considered a significant concession.” That was a mouthful!
I am shocked that Israel always finds a way to give up more of her land to get the love of the nations when dividing the land of Israel always brings more conflict and war. I believe that the Palestinians are not accepting this peace deal because it conflicts with their goals to destroy the State of Israel. Everything from their side is negative and hateful. There are nine parts to the plan they call a vision for peace: 1. Meets the security needs of the state of Israel but it says that Hamas has to accept the nation state of Israel and disarm. That is not going to happen so point one has already failed. 2. Give significant land to the Palestinians. 3. Accept the legal and historical claims of Israel. I cannot see this one happening since the UN has already said that significant cities are not Jewish. Cities like Hebron and Jerusalem. 4. Avoid transfers of populations both Jewish and Arab. This is a positive of the plan because Israel has been the one to kick her people out of her land. The bad side is that the Israeli settlements are fixed and cannot expand. That is going to happen when God moves to give the land back to Israel! 5. Enhances mobility of both populations. There will be an incredible amount of money invested! 6. Provides pragmatic transportation solutions to address the needs of Israelis and Arabs. 7. Enhances the economic needs of both groups and especially the needs of the State of Palestine. 8. A significant expansion of Gaza, its development and success. 9. Facilitate the need for the state of Palestine into regional and global economies!
Why have the Palestinians rejected the deal, even before they read it? The Palestinian Liberation Organization was formed in 1964 with the expressed desire to kill all of the Jews and take all of the land to themselves. Even though they changed the name to Palestine Authority to deceive people, their desire is the same. They believe that Israel stole their land—plain and simple. It is Psalm 83:4-5, They have said, “Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation, That the name of Israel be remembered no more. For they have conspired together with one mind; Against You they make a covenant:” The charter of the PLO is and still says, “armed struggle is the only way to liberate Palestine.” They want to liberate all of Israel but when it was written they already had the West Bank, the year was 1964. The PLO has been a failure becasuse Israel keeps getting more land. I wish they would stop giving back land they win in war! The deal constantly says that Hamas needs to disband, accept Israel, and cede authority to the PA—this is never going to happen. The charter of Hamas is very clear, they want to obliterate Israel. They cry peace, peace, and there is no peace!! This Peace Deal is a solution of the world and not God. It is like a final solution for the Arabs and many Muslims because they have not given up the goal of kicking all Jews out of Israel and killing them. The most ridiculous demand of the deal is that Hamas has to demilitarize— Really!!
What can come from this deal? The areas of the West Bank that are not part of the plan, Israel promises not to expand into those parts of the land of Israel. I think God will change this quickly. Netanyahu accepts the deal but I think he knows that it will fail and they will get all of their land through the war that will be started because of the hatred of the Muslim world. The IDF is preparing for this war as Israel is claiming sovereignty over the Jordan valley which the world already rejects. How can you make the Palestinians accept it when they were never included in the negotiations? This plan definitely exposes the corruption of the Palestinians, and Israel gets to take more of her land, that is the bottom line. God is in control and I will stand on the promise that God made, not the peace deal.
Here is a headline from today that should not shock us: In Wake of Trump Deal Muslims Warn of New reality on Temple Mount: “Muslims Only” — The Jordanian Ministry Of Awqaf And Islamic Affairs reacted negatively to President Trump’s proposal for peaceful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians by saying that ‘Deal of the Century’ imposed a “new reality on the Temple Mount. “Non-Muslims have no right in the Al-Aqsa Mosque,” Trump’s deal called to end the racist apartheid policy currently being held in place by Palestinian threats of terrorism.
The Peace deal says, “Unlike many previous powers that had ruled Jerusalem, and had destroyed the holy sites of other faiths, the State of Israel is to be commended for safeguarding the religious sites of all and maintaining a religious status quo. Given this commendable record for more than half a century, as well as the extreme sensitivity regarding some of Jerusalem’s holy sites, we believe that this practice should remain, and that all of Jerusalem’s holy sites should be subject to the same governance regimes that exist today. In particular the status quo at the Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif should continue uninterrupted. “Jerusalem’s holy sites should remain open and available for peaceful worshippers and tourists of all faiths. People of every faith should be permitted to pray on the Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif, in a manner that is fully respectful to their religion, taking into account the times of each religion’s prayers and holidays, as well as other religious factors.” This would include Jews but of course like usual, the Muslims find a way to attack Israel.
The violence on the Temple Mount will end when Israel starts taking action and abandons their passive acceptance of Muslim hatred and violence. Jews have a right to pray anywhere in their land, including anywhere on the Temple Mount. The Muslims do not have the right to stop Jews from praying on the Temple Mount, their supreme court needs to rule that the Temple Mount is in Jerusalem that Israel owns!! One day soon Israel will take her land, this next few months will be filled with violence because the peace deal will not bring peace! There have been riots on the Temple Mount including today. The Peace Deal will also be rejected because it is from Trump. Look at this headline: Second Top Gantz Aide/Former Obama Adviser Compares Trump to Hitler; Says President is ‘Using’ Israel– Blue and White leader Benny Gantz’s campaign strategist Joel Benenson, who also served as chief strategist for Hillary Clinton’s failed presidential campaign in 2016, has made a number of inflammatory comments against U.S. President Donald Trump on social media, claims that the president is using Israel to cover for his “blatant racism” and drew comparisons between him and Adolf Hitler. As the nation is in the midst of impeachment proceedings, expect the Democrats to start throwing out the line that they have to reject the deal because Trump is anti-Semitic. This top aid is like many Democrats, they hate Trump so much, anything he does should be rejected. I cannot see any Democrat backing the Peace Deal. Here is one quote: “The Democrats running for president have hewed to the party line in criticizing the Israeli-Palestinian peace plan rolled out by President Donald Trump: Unilateral annexation of settlements is the wrong way to go.”
Not many people are talking about this, but I really think that Trump set up the Palestinians to lose all of their land to the Jews. It is in Gods plan, I think it will happen soon. God has a One State Solution to the whole world, not just for Israel and Palestinians. His One State Solution has a Jewish Messiah ruling the whole world from Jerusalem—we are fast heading to that day. Zechariah 14:9, ‘And the LORD will be king over all the earth; in that day the LORD will be the only one, and His name the only one.’ Pray for that day to come soon, Maranatha!
