The nation of Israel?

And the Holy Bible!

There are many Calvinists who refuse to identify the modern state of Israel as being that of the restored Israel of the Bible, because they are accepting replacement theology that tells them lies in relation to the establishment of the Kingdom, it also misguides them on the many relevant scriptures in the New Testament that speak of a true Jew and of the nation!

With the misunderstanding also comes anti-Semitism dressed up as denial even of the Holocaust and the idea that the Gentiles have replaced Israel instead of being grafted to the vine but never to the root?

If we really want to understand the fullness of the Book of Revelation we must be open to the fact, that after the anti-Christ is removed by Jesus, Israel will be saved! We cannot go back on the promises He made to His own chosen race, that are now blinded for the gentiles to come in and join the commonwealth of Israel!

In the light of Holocaust memorial day on the 27th January, many are refusing to mark it but would rather support the Palestinian cause, which to all Jews is proof of their hatred!

Matthew Chapters 24, Romans 7-9, The Books of Hebrews, James, Jude and Revelation.

Understanding the Greek?

More than one Translation!

I think it is very important as a preacher teacher to have some grasp of the Greek, so that we can understand the many words from the various versions that are available for reading and study today?

Even if we are still limited to the King James or Revised Bibles, the Greek context is of great value, where as the Hebrew is quiet fixed even to the modern Israeli and so when comparing verses we will have a frame work built on a strong basis!

What Ekklesia faces today is deception and sensuality, the excuse to undermine the laws of God and to have truth expressed with love, rather one without the other!

2 Peter 2:1-3, Romans 16:18, 1 Corinthians 6;20, Galatians 2:4.

Happy New Year 2024!

Jesus and the Law?

Many unwise believers today think that God has given up on His law and its application in our lives, but as we who have a personal faith should know that He has not and the Law of God is eternal!

Yes we are free from the curses of breaking the Law and its punishment, because Jesus fulfilled this for us on the cross and His rising from the dead!

But the law is still not to be abused or ignored and the ten Commandments are part of the 613 laws that cover all area of our lives, they are not archaic as some believe, because of where we might live in the world and we are advised to obey them in our relationship with Jesus, while also pointing them out to both Kosmon and to Ekklesia?

Exodus 20:1-17, Leviticus 19:22, Matthew 19:17-19, 1 John 4:7-21.

The book of Revelation?

A mirror to the soul re-exploitation!

Replacement theology has lead many believers to discount the teaching of the book of Revelation as having no practical application in our modern world, but sometimes it is referred too in relation to End time events and the return of our Lord Jesus?

Otherwise the key elements of the salvation of Israel and the underlying secret slavery in society is avoided, it is a mirror of guilt in relation to service, servitude and cheap workers for clothing, medical care and a under payed work force and former imperial slavery and the lack of compensations to the survivors?

God is the only one who really knows our hearts, we may be serving Him in good faith, while hiding the secrets of prostitution, dishonesty, tax evasion and corruption, secret societies and much more!

John 9:41, Titus 3:3, Hebrews 4:13-14, 2 Peter 2:19, Revelation 7:1-8, 18:13.

Islam, not a religion of much peace?

7/10/23. Thirteen plus hundred people Murdered!

Even before this terrible event in Israel one could not describe Islam as a religion of peace as it likes to be seen by the its self, many nations in conflict are up against Islamic fundamentalism and when it is not that it is the sectarianism between Shia and Sunni Islam?

No matter where in the world Muslims live, there is a anti-Jewish and Christian mentality, a hostility that they must have their way over every other belief system and if let be more and more is taken until they dominate with violent threats to convert to their way of thinking!

Islam came to the fore in the sixth Century and contains about two-thirds of the Holy Bible in the Qumran, but the interpretation is way off and the New Testament/Injil is seen as corrupt, while some books are false or have key sections on salvation removed.

Jesus/Isa is seen as a human man, a great Prophet, and all that is spiritual about Him and other areas are discounted proving that they have a limited insight, even less than the Jewish faith! Yet they claim much, including the right to Palestine a Roman concept and Jerusalem, which is really the home of the Jewish Temple, where both the Anti-Christ and Jesus will be revealed.

Matthew 10:28, Mark 9:31, Luke 12:4, John 8:37-40, 2 Thessalonians 2:8, Revelation 6:8.

Pro-Israel Christians pulling Back?

Israel’s right-wing anti-Christian Laws!

The problem with U.S. Ekklesia is that they do not know enough of their Bibles in relation to Eschatology and the end times, when Israel will not want, what it considers to be anti-Semitic to its culture?

Judaism is legalistic and it only sees Islam as being more close to what it believes in relation to a shared ancestor Abraham, while Jesus/Yeshua known to us is an imposter and they want nothing of Him!

The other reason is that Israel sees the Christian community as pro-Palestinian and hypocritical when it comes to the word of the Tanakh or our Old Testament that Elohim commands Israel to rid the land of these peoples?

In the book of Romans the Apostle Paul tells us that, ‘the Jews have been blinded, so that the gentiles can come into the commonwealth of Israel or that should rather be the Kingdom (Basilia).

Since they are blinded to the truth, they will want to restore the temple in the area of the Dome of the Rock or Mount Moriah and thus we learn from Daniel and from 2 Thessalonians this will be the place of the desolation and bring on the return of the real Messiah Yeshua/Jesus for us, but for them Ha ‘Moshia/Anti-Christ.

For many believers reading this world-wide, you encompass the Holy Bible and praise the Lord for that, but in the west to much doctrines and replacement theology has blinded many from the truth!

John 12:40, 2 Corinthians 4:4, 1 John 2:11.

Consolation of ISRAEL!

The Invitation to accept Messiah. Luke 2:25.

This passage is related to a portion of scripture that is generally over looked by the Ekklesia in relation to Jesus being circumcised and thus fulfilling the Law.

Without this knowledge or understanding, we later can be come confused about the legal matters that this portion has to do with Him and thus replacement theology takes over to give us a wrong impression!

Simeon gave his word over the prophetic in relation to the baby Jesus, Messiah, since he had been kept alive by God for this moment the consolation of Israel, when the Jewish occupied nation were to receive their invitation to be saved from their past failings in Jesus final sacrifice for sins.

Isaiah 40:1-2, 57:18-18, Hebrews 9:26.

Christmas Approaches!

A really busy time for Ekklesia?

Each one of us has the challenge of pulling something new out of the story that by tradition seems to be fixed and at that it in its own right is a tremendous one, but there are many part to it that can be added depending on who one is preaching too?

When we look at this story we are seeing the fulfilment of Jewish history and we know that in that brief time of some thirty four years, his own people rejected Him, but since thirty three AD the way and the Ekklesia just keeps on growing and spreading out and now we live in an age that allows us to see it recovering older areas that have died lack to keep sharing Jesus?

Christmas is also a time when we see the dregs of society, the self-opinionated and the good people come to fellowship with us for plethora of reasons, sometimes guilt, other memory of childhood, others just like the atmosphere without the reality and others still in despair of life?

Numbers 24:17, Matthew 2:2, 9-10, 2 Peter 1:19.

End Times. Two.

World Events!

Rumours of wars, nations gathered, against the anointed one, but we are clearly told by our Lord , ‘Do not be Alarmed!

Unfortunately we have too many clergy people who make predictions about world events, wars, crises and other things, some to do with Israel and others the Ekklesia and many if not all never happen?

We must stick to what the Holy Bible is teaching us in the Prophetic and not go off on tangents that will not only ruin the preacher, but also the hearers and thus we bring the wrath of the Almighty on us for abusing His words and not mans conception that is a very popular concept today that justifies much sin!

The end is coming and Israel is the focus of Gentile hatred as it always has been, but now it is to be far worse and we believers will suffer with the people of Israel, until Jesus/Yeshua/Isa/Isus is revealed and Satan is defeated!

Matthew 24:6, Mark 13:7, Acts 4:25-26, Psalm 2:1-2, 46:6, Revelation 20:8.

LOVE!

The Bible is a book that is full of Love!

We may tend to think that the love of God is limited to a few verses in the New Testament and that all is related to Jesus, but this is not so because God expresses His love for those who have faith in Him and for His people Israel long before the coming of Messiah and the establishment of Ekklesia!

John 3:16. Remains controversial only by those who remain limited in their Biblical knowledge and study or who have been blinkered by the veil of replacement theology?

But the Holy Scriptures are full of God’s love and it would take a long time to cover every area, so one has been limited and once more has provided as bases from where you can work from!

Exodus 15:3, Deuteronomy 4:37, 7:8, Luke 6:27, John 16:27, Galatians 2:20, Revelation 3:15.
