The Significance of Sabbath in the Endtimes

Few Christians today keep Sabbath as it is described and commanded in the Bible.  Most who call themselves Christians that Sunday has replaced the Sabbath, and become the Christians Sabbath (never mind that is also the biggest restaurant day of the year!).  But little do we realize that Sabbath also figures in to the End Times, and the Millenial reign of the Messiah Yeshua (Joshua).


How so?  Let's take a look at Isaiah 56.


Thus says the Lord,
“Preserve justice and do righteousness,
For My salvation is about to come
And My righteousness to be revealed.
² “How blessed is the man who does this,
And the son of man who takes hold of it;
Who keeps from profaning the Sabbath,
And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”


Here Yhwh is proclaiming that His salvation is coming, and His righteousness about to be reveled, as we know happens in the last days when the Messiah returns to bring His elect from the four winds of heaven (Mt. 24:31; Jd. 1:14).  The Psalmist also tells us that the righteousness of Yhwh is an "everlasting righteousness, and His torah (i.e. instruction) is truth" (119:42).  Yhwh tells us blessed is he who "takes hold of this" and "keeps from profaning the Sabbath."


In this blog I am not arguing the day of Sabbath, though really when reading the Tanakh, it is a moot point, and anyone who researches into the matter will see that it was done by the Roman Sun-god worshipping Emporeor Constantine (begin here: biblepaedia). 


How does this tie in with the End-Times?  Let's take a look at some further verses here.

⁴ For thus says the Lord,

“To the eunuchs who keep My sabbaths,
And choose what pleases Me,
And hold fast My covenant,

⁵ To them I will give in My house and within My walls a memorial,
And a name better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give ^[a]them an everlasting name which will not be cut off.

Okay... so huh?  What do we make of this???  Eunuchs... keeping Sabbath?  And having their names inscribed in the majestic walls of the heavenly temple in Jerusalem during the Millenial reign in Israel?  Yeah.  That's what the Yhwh says.  Those who keep His Sabbath, requiring no work of ox or donkey or male or female servants (waiters/waitresses...), and who takes hold of His covenant (obeying Yhwh's instruction on feasts, clean/unclean, sacrifices...).

⁶ “Also the foreigners (Gentiles) who join themselves to the Lord,
To minister to Him, and to love the name of the Lord,
To be His servants, every one who keeps from profaning the sabbath
And holds fast My covenant;
⁷ Even those I will bring to My holy mountain
And make them joyful in My house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on My altar;
For My house will be called a house of prayer for all the peoples.”
⁸ The Lord ^[b]God, who gathers the dispersed of Israel, declares,
“Yet others I will gather to ^[c]them, to those already gathered.”

And Yahweh includes the Gentiles who keep His Sabbath.  For the last two-thousand years, though the Church began with thousands of Messianic Jews saved on Shavuot, the anniversary and renewal of the giving of Torah (Jer. 31:31-33), though it quickly opened to Gentiles, according to the will of Yhwh, but a Hebrew understanding of the scriptures was quickly lost to a Gentile culture.




From verse seven, many will recognize a quote which Yeshua uttered while at the Temple confronting the money-changers.  Indeed, Yahweh's temple is destined to be a house of prayer for ALL the nations.  But He precedes that phrase first stating "their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on My altar...." 




Yes, the sacrificial system will be reinstated during the Millenial reign while the Resurrected Messiah  sits on His throne.  Ezekiel chapters 40-48 describe fully how the Messianic Kingdom will be carried out, and it will be according to Torah!




Many nations will come and say,
“Come and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord
And to the house of the God of Jacob,
That He may teach us about His ways
And that we may walk in His paths.”
For from Zion will go forth the law,
Even the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.   (Micah 4:2)




There is no distinction between the Church and Israel.  Israel is always about those related to God through Covenant faith.  Part of that Covenant faith is honoring Sabbath, which Elohim rested and sanctified on the Seventh day during creation (Gen. 2:2-3; Ex. 20:8-11)


 “Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. ⁹ Six days you shall labor and do all your work, ¹⁰ but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who ^[e]stays with you. ¹¹ For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.


In the New Testament (Brit Chadashah), there is no command to alter the day of Sabbath as Christians assert.


“If because of the sabbath, you turn your foot From doing your own pleasure on My holy day, And call the sabbath a delight, the holy day of the Lord honorable, And honor it, desisting from your own ways, From seeking your own pleasure And speaking your own word, ¹⁴ Then you will take delight in the Lord, And I will make you ride on the heights of the earth; And I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father, For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” (Is. 58:13).

Major Prophetic Announcement! - Holy Altar Constructed For Third Jewish Temple

• Major Prophetic Announcement! - Holy Altar Constructed For Third Jewish Temple

---

End-times prophecy watchers are marveling over a news report out of Jerusalem this week that the Altar of the Lord has been reconstructed by the Temple Institute.

The Institute, based in the Old City of Jerusalem, announced it has finished building an altar that is essentially “ready for use” in sacrificial services.

The altar is the most ambitious project to date toward the goal of rebuilding the Jewish Temple. The massive outdoor altar, which took several years to build, can be operational at little more than a moment’s notice, reported the Israeli magazine Matzav Haruach.

The altar is the last major component needed for the long-obstructed sacrifices to resume in a future Jewish temple.

Ultra-Orthodox Jews pray daily for its reconstruction atop the holy hill known as Mount Moriah or the Temple Mount.

Bible scholars say the rebuilding of the ancient temple is predicted throughout scripture, starting with Daniel’s vision in Daniel 9:27. Jesus echoed Daniel’s warning about an abomination standing in “the holy place” in the last days in Matthew 24:15, followed by the Apostle John’s vision of the Temple in Revelation 11:1-2. Paul mentioned it in 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4.

Most people don’t realize the temple had two altars — the altar of burnt offering and the altar of incense. The largest was the altar of burnt offering, placed in the outer court of the priests. Designing and building it to exact biblical specifications required quite an undertaking.

It was approximately 5 meters (16 feet) tall and 16 meters (52.5 feet) wide, with four “horns” or raised corners, and a ramp.

The altar is the central focus of the sacrificial services that were halted with the destruction of the Second Temple by the Romans in 70 A.D.

The Temple Institute has prepared all the priestly garments and sacred vessels for the rebuilt temple, which can be viewed on its website. It even trains members of the priestly family to be ready to serve as soon as the Temple is constructed.

Carl Gallups, a Baptist pastor in Florida, Bible prophecy expert and author of “Final Warning: Understanding the Trumpet Days of Revelation,” told WND the announcement about the altar will be seen by many Christians as a huge step toward fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

“This announcement will surely excite prophecy watchers around the world,” he said. “Regardless of one’s eschatological leanings, every sincere student of the Word of God knows there are at least hints, if not clear declarations, of something happening just before the return of the Lord that involves altar sacrifices and the distinct possibility of a rebuilt temple on the Temple Mount.”

Jonathan Cahn, author of “The Harbinger” and “The Mystery of the Shemitah” also sees the announcement as significant.

“We know that end-time prophecy cannot be fulfilled without the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem,” Cahn, a Messianic Jewish rabbi in New Jersey, told WND. “The abomination desolation prophesied in Daniel and in the Gospels, must take place within the Temple precincts. So, too, the apostle Paul speaks of the ‘man of sin,’ or the Antichrist, sitting in the Temple of God. What many people don’t realize is that along with the Holy of Holies, the altar of the Temple is the most central and critical part of the Temple.”

Cahn said it is the altar that is the center of the abomination causing desolation.

“It was specifically the altar of the Temple that was desecrated by Antiochus Epiphanes in the days of the Maccabees that comprised the first abomination desolation and the foreshadowing of what will take place in the end-times,” he said. “So any progress made toward the rebuilding of the altar is worthy of our attention.”

Mark Biltz, author of “Blood Moons: Decoding the Imminent Heavenly Signs” and pastor of El Shaddai Ministries, says prophecy watchers should not forget, however, that the Temple Mount is under the control of the Muslims for a reason.

“Religiously, you have the Temple Institute and they are ready to rebuilt it,” he said.

In previous years, there have been attempts to sacrifice a goat on the Temple Mount at Passover, something that enrages Muslims who consider the hilltop the third most sacred spot in Islam.

“They could actually do sacrifices without a temple, some sacrifices. And Passover is one of them. There’s always been a drive to sacrifice a lamb on the Temple Mount,” Biltz said. “They would do it in a heartbeat. But it’s just like here in America where the ACLU wants nothing to do with religion or religious groups. So it’s the same there. The Israeli government doesn’t want to cause any uproar among the various religious factions, especially with elections coming up.”

The Temple Institute represents the views of the Ultra-Orthodox community, which makes up a small percentage of Israel’s population, about 4 percent.

“They would love a temple but the broader population wants to keep church and state separate, and there is a lot of animosity toward the Ultra Orthodox,” Biltz said. “But they don’t need some big elaborate temple, they could start to do the sacrifices with a tent or some sort of makeshift tabernacle. It’s all very interesting and it’s all coming to a head. I believe you’re going to see a major war first, which would redraw alignments and allegiances.”

This explains the reaction of former Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Dayan as he observed rabbis rushing to pray at the Temple Mount following the Israeli Army’s reclaiming of the landmark in the 1967 Six-Day War.

“What is this?” Dayan, a secular Jew, reportedly mused. “The Vatican?”

“One of the first things he did was give it back to the Muslims,” Biltz said. “They didn’t want the religious right telling the government what to do. They would rather have the Muslims have it. So there is a bigger fight among the Jews, an even bigger fight over whether to build a temple, than the fight with the Muslims. There are two huge fights going on. ”

There is an interesting foreshadowing of this end-time rebuilding event in the book of Ezra, who gave an account of the Jewish exiles returning from captivity in Persia.

“In rebuilding the temple destroyed under the Babylonian occupation, the first act of those returnees was to rebuild an altar and offer sacrifices upon it to the Lord,” Gallups said.

They did this at the site of the ruined temple. The altar was constructed under the leadership of a high priest named, of all things, Yehoshua (Joshua, or Jesus in the New Testament Greek).

The returning Jews, according to Ezra, rebuilt this holy altar despite fears of attack from surrounding enemies. After the altar was rebuilt, and regular sacrifices reinstated, the returnees celebrated their first festival — the Feast of Tabernacles.

That feast occurs in autumn. This year it will occur during the season of the rare tetrad of four blood moons and the seven-year Shemitah cycle described in Cahn’s book.

Ezra, chapter three, says that after the altar was rebuilt and sacrifices resumed, and when the temple had been rebuilt – the people shouted with joy, praised the Lord and wept aloud. “And the sound (of the celebration) was heard far away.”

“Now, in 2015, we have the news that once again the altar of sacrifice has been rebuilt and is ready for use,” Gallups said. “We also know of a very serious plan to rebuild the ancient temple of God upon the Temple Mount. The days of Ezra and Yehoshua appear to be upon us again. In the midst of the celebration of these facts, the sound of that celebration is once again ‘being heard far away.’ And through the modern technology of the Internet the sound is being heard around the world. These are certainly prophetic times in which we are living.”

Biltz sees the timing of the altar announcement as prophetic.

“Tomorrow, (Saturday) every Jew in synagogues around the world is reading the Torah portion from Exodus about the construction of the tabernacle,” he said. “It’s the last chapter of Exodus about the glory falling, Moses coming out and blessing the people and the glory falling on the tabernacle.

“Not only that but this next week, historically, is the very day the dedication of the tabernacle happened, on Nisan 1, that is read in the Torah portion. This year, being Saturday, March 21. It actually begins at sundown on Friday, March 20.”

As an expert in the Hebrew roots of the Christian faith, Biltz is always looking at current events in light of the times and the seasons according to the Hebrew calendar. And there is something else special this year about Nisan 1, which arrives at sundown March 20.

“Amazingly, there is also a total solar eclipse occurring at the beginning of the religious calendar on March 20. A total solar eclipse speaks of judgment coming on the nations. This is followed two weeks later by a total lunar eclipse or blood moon on Passover.”

So the fact that a remnant of Jews has prepared an altar and the sacred vessels for temple services, even if the politics are still such that constructing the temple is currently impossible, is exciting, Biltz said.

Most of the sacred vessels needed for the temple sacrificial system have been recreated by Israeli artisans – the cups, the chalices, the incense altar and incense shovel, the table of showbread, the high-priest’s crown, the golden menorah, the three-pronged fork and so on. All of these items are being planned now by the Temple Institute, even though the political obstacles to rebuilding the temple in Jerusalem remain huge.

“They even have the high priest’s crown. They have everything ready to go,” Biltz said. “They’ve even had the Levites come in and be fitted for the priestly garments, everything is ready.”

The purpose of the Temple was to make atonement for Israel and atonement for the nations of the world before the Creator, whom all mankind should desire to draw near, Biltz said.

“If the nations had only understood this back then, they would have never destroyed the temple but placed their armies around it to protect it,” he said. “If the nations understood that today, they would realize rather than dividing Jerusalem it should be united with a Temple to Hashem bringing His presence back into our world. This is the only true path to world peace.”

Israel Now News - Episode 160

Psalm 19 - A Call to Meditate on the Torah

Psalm 19 is one of my favorite Psalms, as I can see it daily when I'm outside, looking up into the heavens.  "The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies display the work of his hands..."  Gazing into the sky, even the unbelieving world is gripped by the awe and the majesty (of Yhwh) that they feel when looking at the sky.


In the first six verses, the Psalmist paints a poetic image of God's glory displayed and seen throughout the earth, to which the Apostle Paul alludes in Romans ch. 1:19-20.  But then the Psalmist (King David) moves to praising the beneficient attributes of Yhwh's Torah, His revealed instruction given to His people Israel via Moses.


My point in this blog is not to do a sermon or bible study per se in this blog, as time won't allow today, but rather to share an insight I think the LORD showed me about this Psalm.  Often we quote the Psalm's first verses and its last verse, but sooo out of context!


"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer!" (Ps. 19:14).


Certainly, following this beautiful image of the Torah and all its benefits to the soul, David cries out to let his speech and the meditation (continual thoughts, ponderings) of his heart, be pleasing in Yhwh's sight.  This was not just a prayer for a good thought life and speech.  This was a prayer, acknowledging the command Yahweh commanded Joshua:


⁸ This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may ^[a]be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will ^[b]have success.  Joshua 1:8 [www.biblegateway.com]


It is a prayer that one's thought life and speech be centered upon the Torah! The instruction given by Yhwh to His people, by which obedience or disobedience to can be the cause of life or death.  As the world and society moves away from the word of God, and global hatred for the Jewish people grow, is it any wonder that our sicknesses and diseases and FEAR are on the increase (Dt. 28:1-2, 15)?

The Pope Reigning in Israel?

The Pope just returned from his trip to Israel, where some very signifcant things happened.  Pope Francis (aka Peter the Roman or Petrus Romanus) has been in negotiations in Israel, and is gaining authority of the Upper Room, where traditionally the Hebrew Messiah held the final Passover (Pesach) Feast with His disciples before His crucifixion.

The Vatican, according to Israeli National News, has been after control of the holy sites since the days of the Crusaders.  It appears that hte Vatican is finally gaining this control, at such a time when many other Biblical prophecies are coming to pass, and in which the Vatican has a major role in fulfilling.  The Vatican is playing a major role in pushing for a one-world currency, and calling for all religions to unite (interestingly, at the same time, denying that the descendents of the Protestant Reformers, today's Evangelical Christians, are not Christians at all!)  This One-World Government was prophesied to Daniel in visions in Daniel 7-12

Daniel 7:7-8   7 "After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns.  8 "While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth uttering great boasts.  (cf. Dan. 7:19-27)

This "One-World"Government, and the terrible ruler that arises in the midst of it, takes place in the final Seven Year Period at the end of which, the King of kings and Lord of lords will return with many thousands of His holy ones (to borrow from Enoch) to set up His one thousand year reign on earth before the great and terrible judgment of sin and eternal damnation to all who rejected the loving offer that the Father made concerning His Son.  (John 3:18; 1 John 5:9-11).

The vision that was given to St. Malachy concerning the Final Pope reigning at the time the great judge returns is playing out in conjunction with other Biblical Prophecies concerning the treturn of Christ.  Both Catholic and Protestant Theologians have held for centuries that the Antichrist or either the False Prophet would be the Pope at the last time.  These men studied and knew their scriptures, and they could read the implications and see the signs around them.  They are around us too, for all those wanting to see them.

Lord Yeshua sternly warned us:  "For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. (Matthew 16:25)  The Bible, which claims to inspired and directed by the Most High (most gracious, most good; Jas. 1:17) God, tells us that only those who repent (turn from) their rebellion against Him and humbly submit their lives to Jesus Christ (Yeshua haMashiac) in faith will be saved from eternal hellfire.  Only those who give you this information are truly acting in love, so that in losing your life to Yeshua, the Jewish Messiah, you will find your life in Him!

Rabbis Unite in Call for Rebuilding the Jewish Temple

This artlicle came out recently on Israel National News:

...

Among the rabbis are those considered religiously “conservative” and who have avoided making public calls for prayers on the Temple Mount until now – including Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu – as well as those considered more “liberal,” including Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, Rabbi She'ar Yashuv-Cohen, Rabbi Menachem Borstein, and Rabbi Daniel Shilo. Many of the latter have also avoided calling for prayers on the Mount as well.

...

The letter was also signed by many professors, educators, and professionals; it was authored and delivered by the Amutat Yishai organization, which advocates building a synagogue on an area of the Temple Mount that many rabbis agree Jews are allowed to ascend to.

Aliens in the House of the LORD?

Over the past decade, there has been increasing excitement as plans for building the Third Jewish Temple have been being made, indeed, they have been underway to some extant since Israel was restored by YHWH to their holy land, in fulfillment to numerous scriptures (a few are: Deut. 30:3; Ps. 80:7, 19; Is. 1:26-28; Is. 10:20-23, Jer. 31:8-10, 33:14-21; Ezek. 28:25-26, etc.) and all the more today, as one can go online and even view the temple blueprints of the Third Temple.  

One of the amazing things about God's holy word, is the levels of meaning contained within scriptural passages.  Now, I'm not saying that they could mean "whatever you want to read into it," or "whatever you want to make it say."  That's all the more miraculous, that there can be multiple layers of meaning, or application... without any of it contradicting the rest of scripture!

This morning I was reading again in Jeremiah 51 on the soon-coming judgment of Babylon (aka the U.S., Rev. 17:18)  and I came to Jer. 51:51:

Jeremiah 51:51

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

51 We are ashamed because we have heard reproach;
Disgrace has covered our faces,
For aliens have entered
The holy places of the Lord’s house.

I think the "Aliens" that are encroaching every more in our lives today around the world, and still seen most often in movies and and media (countless sightings can be seen on Youtube!), but claiming soon to disclose themselves to humanity, now that we are "at a stage to know the truth" about them and about ourselves. 

From what I've seen on the History Channel's show Ancient Aliens, these aliens not only claim to bge our creators, but that we (humanity), are sort of a social experiment for them... and they are guiding us to realize our destinies as gods (Gen. 3:5)! Sound familiar?

So it is my belief that these aliens are not indeed extraterrestrials at all, but the are the Fallen Angels and Nephilim which were around and building their kingdom on earth before the Flood, and after, through Nimrod, who is still worshiped today through many different names and in many religions and secret societies, some even seemingly "Christian," as they take on oath as they bow before a "worshipful Master" other than Jesus, and pledge their lives to a great architect (the all-seeing eye of Horus/Osisirus/Nimrod~Antichrist).

I fully believe that the Coming leader of this prophesied New World Order (Dan. 7:19-22) is in league and under the same dictates of the "aliens". Scripture prophesies that this Man of Lawlessness will stand against everything that is called God, he will stand against the Torah of Moses, declare himself to be God and take his seat in the Temple. (2 Thess. 2:4).

As the Vatican, or more specifically, the Pope, has been given authority over the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, and as it appears more and more as time progresses that this Pope is indeed the False Prophet, this development puts him in strategic position to give the One-World leader access to the Temple Mount, and no doubt, armed guard entrance into the holy Temple itself.

The LORD's word declares the end from the beginning (Is. 46:10; Rev. 21:6), I wonder if our Lord is telling us of a time, when the Antichrist reigns that their will indeed be Aliens that come into the Holy of Holies and descreate the Temple?

Jeremiah 51:51

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

51 We are ashamed because we have heard reproach;
Disgrace has covered our faces,
For aliens have entered
The holy places of the Lord’s house.

Peace Agreement Very Close To Be Complete

David Flynn - Temple at the Center of Time

The Pope will have an official seat in the room where it is believed Jesus and the Disciples held the Last Supper.  The Vatican has been working for some time on acquiring control in/of Jerusalem.  The Jewish government finally decided, not to give up control, but to give the Vatican some control in this special area.

Will this lead to the final pope allowing for the One World International leader to take his place in the Third Temple (2 Thess. 2:3-4).  I think we are seeing it unfold before our very eyes!

Mideast Quartet Calls for Peace(!)

Mideast Quartet Calls for Peace.

Meeting on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly on Friday, top diplomats from the United Nations, United States, Russia and the European Union said in a statement that both sides should take "every possible step" to make ongoing U.S.-mediated negotiations a success. The quartet also called on the parties to refrain from any action that would undermine trust or prejudge the outcome of the talks.

This call for seriousness in talks would almost be laughable if it were not so sad.  The religion of Islam calls for the annihilation of the Jewish people!  This whole thing is nothing but a sham to forestall in the supposed hope of provoking the Jews to war, and then wiping them out.

But the Bible declares that this will not happen.  Israel is going to be victorious.  If the world would learn to listen to the natural disasters that God is sending to all those who oppose Israel, and try to take away her land, they might bring prosperity to their nations.  But alas, the LORD told us that in the last days all the Gentiles would oppose Israel, that Jerusalem would be a heavy rock for all the peoples, and all who lift it will be severely damaged!" (Zech. 12:3).

Minor Earthquake Felt in Jerusalem Area - Inside Israel - News - Israel National News

Seems Yom Kippur this year is turning out to be a "earth-shaking" event!  A 3.5 quake was felt this morning at 4:20 AM local time.  The epicenter for the quake was just north of the Dead Sea, 30 Km outside of Jerusalem.  Thankfully, no injuries were reported.

For the full story, see link: Minor Earthquake felt in Israel

The Bible does speak of an earthquake that is coming upon the return of Israel (and the world's) true Messiah, that the world has not yet seen the likes of!

Revelation 16:18-21  18 And there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a great earthquake, such as there had not been since man came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty.
19 The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of His fierce wrath.  20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.  21 And huge hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, came down from heaven upon men; and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, because its plague was extremely severe.

For The First Time in 1900 Years - Temple Institute Preparing for 'Perpetual Offering'

For The First Time in 1900 Years - Temple Institute Preparing for 'Perpetual Offering'

Things are well under progress according to scripture!  This article lends further credence to my hunch that the Temple is going to begin being built at the conclusion of this next war, when a moderate Muslim makes a seven-year treaty for peace with Israel and the peoples of the Middle East.  What they will not know, is that he will have personal plans to use it for himself!


2 Thessalonians 2:3-4   "and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction,  4 who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God."

Vatican Moves on Temple Mount

Vatican Moves on Temple Mount

This post on Niklaus Arthurs blog covers this most important event, the Vatican gaining control over the holy sites in Jerusalem! 

*A quick update, on an earlier post i wrote, I mentioned with the final pope in office, the head of what many believe scriptures declare as the mystery harlot, who sits on many waters (Rev. 17:1).  Rev. 17:15 tell us that the many waters are many peoples.  The Roman Catholic church is found in every nation throughout the earth.

Micah 5:5-7 tells us of an Assyrian who will trample the land of Israel.

Micah 5:5-7

⁵ This One will be our peace. When the Assyrian invades our land, When he tramples on our citadels, Then we will raise against him Seven shepherds and eight leaders of men. ⁶ They will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword, The land of Nimrod at its entrances; And He will deliver us from the Assyrian When he attacks our land And when he tramples our territory. 

 

There is an Assyrian, or Syrian, raising up today.  He is a Muslim, and so the goal end of his religion is the annihilation of Israel.    But he comes in the name of peace, seeking to bring an end to fighting in Syria, and the Middle East.  But scripture also tell us that the lawless one, the wicked, the anti-christ, as he is better known, will come in the name of peace (Dan. 9:27, 7:24, 25).

 

Does Micah 5 tell us of a war which this "peace bringer" intiates against the land of Israel?  Does it tell us that Israel will set up a guard, at least along the Syrian border.  And is Micah speaking of the Messiah delivering Israel from the hand of the Assyrian.  If so, we may know the identity of the antichrist.  Or, this man may play another role in the unfolding of God's plan.

 

Do you understand why I've placed this update here?  Because with the Vatican gaining control of the holy sites in Jerusalem, and the pope uniting with Islam, bringing the apostate protestant Chrislam to a whole new level, this will secure the man of lawlessness a place to come in and take his seat at the Temple, where Yahweh Saboath chose for His name to dwell.

 

 

But in verse seven of Micah five, the prophet, inspired by the Spirit of G_d, tells us the outcome for Israel.

 

⁷ Then the remnant of Jacob Will be among many peoples Like dew from the LORD, Like showers on vegetation which do not wait for man or delay for the sons of men.

Paul McGuire -- Satanic Message Reaches Four Billion Through Great Britain Olympics

Paul McGuire has a very insightful and sobering analysis of the occultic symbolism that was used and broadcast before millions through media during the Olympic ceremonies!  Is this a foreboding of what's to come.  Jesus said that in the last days, "it will be as in the days of Noah."  It appears we are indeed well into that sitz im leben.


Paul McGuire -- Satanic Message Reaches Four Billion Through Great Britain Olympics

Soon Coming? Do We See the Signs?

The coming of the Lord is so close. Israel is God's timepiece! Why do you think the media doesn't focus on the hundreds of rockets the Islamists fire into Israel every week? THEY don't want you to know what's going on! 

And the UFOs... did you know the Bible and ancient historic literature speaks of "aliens" and spacecraft? Angels travel in them, Enoch traveled to heaven in a flying house, Elijah went to heaven in a fiery chairot. Of course these were "spaceships", or maybe more correctly, inter-dimensional ships. The fallen angels showing themselves before mankind tells us that they are preparing for the great deception to take the world after the catching away of the Lord's church from earth.
If a Christian names a date forecasting the end, or the return of Christ, they are ridiculed and made a laughing stock, while these mockers don't realize it, but many pagan world religions name 2012 as the year humanity enters a new era, and a new leader arises. The native-American religions name their winged serpent god, Quexal-coatal. Sounds alot like the Biblical serpent that left his abode on high! Does that have anything to do with the movie "V" and the Reptilian shapeshifters? Is truth stranger than fiction?


Psalm 51:18-19 ¹⁸ By Your favor do good to Zion; Build the walls of Jerusalem. ¹⁹ Then You will delight in righteous sacrifices, In burnt offering and whole burnt offering; Then young bulls will be offered on Your altar.
