Palestine and Israel: WAR
الحرب الإسلامية في إسرائيل
السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته
On the same day the Lord made a covenant with Ibrahim/Abraham, saying:
"To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates. . ."
— Genesis 15:18
What on earth is happening in the Middle East? It seems that all we hear about in the news from this region is another outburst of violence—or a threat of one.
Mulims threaten to eliminate Israel awaiting their Islamic "messiah" and al Mahdi, as well as a new world order.
Muslims say: "We are all Osama!" That pretty much says it all. The message of Osama bin Laden and the Muslim terrorists appears to be alive and well.
And what about the so-called Arab Spring? What some thought might be a hopeful sign, perhaps a surge of democracy in the Middle East, has not turned out so well. So what is the explanation of all of this chaos and confusion? What in the world is happening?
The short answer is that Bible prophecy, uttered by God 2,000 years before the existence of Islam, is being lived out in real time before our very eyes. God in the Bible has predicted the things that are happening in this part of the world. Scripture is very clear in pointing out that the end of the world will be centered in the Middle East. And it has all been foretold in the only book that accurately predicts the future: the Bible.
Thousands of years ago, Hebrew prophets predicted the Jewish people would be scattered across the earth and then later regathered. Jesus, in fact, gave a very specific prediction when He said the temple in Jerusalem that was being rebuilt by Herod at the time would not only be destroyed, but also would be dismantled, stone by stone (see Matthew 24:1).
Did that prediction reach fulfillment? Yes, it did. Because all historians agree that in A.D. 70, Titus and the Roman legions marched into Jerusalem, slaughtered thousands of Jews and dismantled the temple. Why did they dismantle it? Because there was gold in the temple, which had been burned, and they had to dismantle it to extract the melted gold. This fulfilled, to the letter, the prophecy of Christ. Also at this time, the Jews were scattered.
Fast-forward many years to the Holocaust, when Hitler sought to eradicate the Jewish people from the face of the earth. Thankfully, the United States, Great Britain, and their allies stopped the Nazi war machine. And what happened in the aftermath of the Holocaust was nothing short of amazing. The Jewish people began to return to their homeland. And on May 14, 1948, a modern miracle happened. The state of Israel was officially declared.
What is the Palestinian-Israeli conflict?
Let's watch what happens in our Palestine:
Israel Palestinian Conflict: The Truth About the West Bank
The Truth About the Refugees: Israel Palestinian Conflict
Israel Palestinian Conflict: The Truth About the Peace Process
Here was a nation- ISRAEL/JEWS- that had been dispersed for centuries, and then it was regathered. This has never happened again in history. And this was a super-sign that started the prophetic clock ticking. The people of Israel were back in their homeland again.
But there was still a problem. Israel did not have control of Jerusalem, and Jerusalem plays a key role in the end-times scenario. Although they had declared their statehood, Jordan was still controlling the old city of Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount and most of the historic sites. Then, the Six Day War broke out in 1967, in which Israel was attacked. No one expected her to survive. Not only did Israel survive the attack, but she won the war and gained back a lot of the things she had lost, including the old city. And for the first time in more than 2,000 years, the city of Jerusalem was under Jewish control.
Yet to this present day, Jerusalem remains at the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with Arab leaders worldwide insisting that Jerusalem and the entire West Bank are rightfully Palestinian territory and ultimately must be given back as a condition of peace.
Of course, we are going to side with God on this issue. God gave Jerusalem to Israel/Jews for their EVERLASTING possesion. He said to Abraham in Genesis 15:18, "To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates. . ." . He gave that land to Israel, and the Israelis are not going to give up the city of Jerusalem.
The Bible predicts that the city of Jerusalem will be at the epicenter of it all, and the attention of the planet will be directed toward Israel and toward the city of Jerusalem.
Is this happening now? Yes, it is. All of this is happening just as the Bible predicted it would.
So let's go over the chronology of events the Bible has predicted: Israel will be scattered. Has this happened? Yes.
Israel will be regathered after her people are scattered. Has this happened? Again, yes.
Israel will regain the city of Jerusalem. Has this happened? Yes.
Israel will be isolated from the other nations of the world and basically will stand alone. Has that happened? Not quite, but it appears to be moving in that direction.
Lastly, Israel will be attacked. Has that happened? Not yet, and not on the scale the Bible predicts. This is still in the future, but perhaps the near future.
Scripture specifically tells us that world history, as we know it, will culminate in this part of the world. Muslims must study Bible prophecy and compare it to Islam. The reason we should want to learn about the future is so we will be motivated to live rightly...godly in the present with the God of Israel and the KING of Israel/the Caliph (King) Jesus during His Millenium Reign in His Caliphate on our planet.
So, what is the FUTURE that God predicted in His ancient prophecies? He actually predicted the destruction of Palestine and Gaza and the return of His Son to be our King in Israel. Let's read about it:
Zechariah 14
The Third World War in Israel
1Behold, the day of the Lord is coming,
And your spoil will be divided in your midst.
2 For I will gather all the nations (MUSLIMS, Palestine and Iran) to battle against Jerusalem;
The city shall be taken,
The houses rifled,
And the women ravished.
Half of the city shall go into captivity,
But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then the Lord (our God Jesus) will go forth
And fight against those nations
(MUSLIMS, Palestine and Iran),
As He fights in the day of battle.
4 And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,
Which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
From east to west,
Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.
5 Then you shall flee through My mountain valley,
For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.
Yes, you shall flee
As you fled from the earthquake
In the days of Uzziah king of Judah.
Thus the Lord my God will come,
And all the saints with You.
6 It shall come to pass in that day
That there will be no light;
The lights will diminish.
7 It shall be one day
Which is known to the Lord—
Neither day nor night.
But at evening time it shall happen
That it will be light.
8 And in that day it shall be
That living waters shall flow from Jerusalem,
Half of them toward the eastern sea
And half of them toward the western sea;
In both summer and winter it shall occur.
9 And the Lord shall be King over all the earth.
In that day it shall be—
“The Lord is one,”
And His name one.
10 All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. Jerusalem shall be raised up and inhabited in her place from Benjamin’s Gate to the place of the First Gate and the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses.
11 The people shall dwell in it;
And no longer shall there be utter destruction,
But Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
12 And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem:
Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet,
Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets,
And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths.
13 It shall come to pass in that day
That a great panic from the Lord will be among them.
Everyone will seize the hand of his neighbor,
And raise his hand against his neighbor’s hand;
14 Judah also will fight at Jerusalem.
And the wealth of all the surrounding nations
Shall be gathered together:
Gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.
15 Such also shall be the plague
On the horse and the mule,
On the camel and the donkey,
And on all the cattle that will be in those camps.
So shall this plague be.
The Nations Worship the King Jesus
16 And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 17 And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain. 18 If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which the Lord strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.
20 In that day “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” shall be engraved on the bells of the horses. The pots in the Lord’s house shall be like the bowls before the altar. 21 Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be holiness to the Lord of hosts.[d] Everyone who sacrifices shall come and take them and cook in them. In that day there shall no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the Lord of hosts.

1 انْظُرُوا هَا هُوَ يَوْمٌ مُقْبِلٌ لِلرَّبِّ، يُقْسَمُ فِيهِ مَا سُلِبَ مِنْكُمْ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ.
2 لأَنِّي أَجْمَعُ جَمِيعَ الأُمَمِ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِتُحَارِبَهَا، فَتُؤْخَذُ الْمَدِينَةُ وَتُنْهَبُ الْبُيُوتُ وَتُغْتَصَبُ النِّسَاءُ وَيُسْبَى نِصْفُ أَهْلِهَا إِلَى الْمَنْفَى. إِنَّمَا لاَ يَنْقَرِضُ بَقِيَّةُ الشَّعْبِ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ.
3 وَلاَ يَلْبَثُ أَنْ يَهُبَّ الرَّبُّ لِيُحَارِبَ تِلْكَ الأُمَمَ، كَمَا كَانَ يُحَارِبُ فِي يَوْمِ الْقِتَالِ.
4 وَتَقِفُ قَدَمَاهُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ عَلَى جَبَلِ الزَّيْتُونِ الْمُمْتَدِّ أَمَامَ أُورُشَلِيمَ بِاتِّجَاهِ الشَّرْقِ، فَيَنْشَقُّ جَبَلُ الزَّيْتُونِ إِلَى شَطْرَيْنِ مِنَ الشَّرْقِ إِلَى الْغَرْبِ عَنْ وَادٍ عَظِيمٍ جِدّاً، فَيَتَرَاجَعُ نِصْفُ الْجَبَلِ إِلَى الشِّمَالِ، وَالنِّصْفُ الآخَرُ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ.
5 وَيَهْرُبُونَ مِنْ خِلاَلِ وَادِي جِبَالِي الْمُمْتَدِّ إِلَى آصَلَ. تَهْرُبُونَ كَمَا هَرَبْتُمْ مِنَ الزَّلْزَلَةِ فِي أَيَّامِ حُكْمِ عُزِّيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، وَيَأْتِي الرَّبُّ إِلَهِي فِي مَوْكِبٍ مِنْ جَمِيعِ قِدِّيسِيهِ.
6 فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَتَلاَشَى نُورُ (الْكَوَاكِبِ) وَلاَ يَكُونُ بَرْدٌ وَلاَ صَقِيعٌ.
7 وَيَكُونُ يَوْمٌ مُتَوَاصِلٌ مَعْرُوفٌ عِنْدَ الرَّبِّ، لاَ نَهَارَ فِيهِ وَلاَ لَيْلَ، إِذْ يَغْمُرُ النَّهَارُ سَاعَاتِ الْمَسَاءِ.
8 فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ تَجْرِي مِيَاهٌ حَيَّةٌ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، يَصُبُّ نِصْفُهَا فِي الْبَحْرِ الشَّرْقِيّ (الْبَحْرِ الْمَيِّتِ)، وَنِصْفُهَا الآخَرُ فِي الْبَحْرِ الْغَرْبِيّ (الْبَحْرِ الأَبْيَضِ الْمُتَوَسِّطِ) طَوَالَ الصَّيْفِ وَالشِّتَاءِ.
9 وَيَمْلِكُ الرَّبُّ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا، فَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ رَبٌّ وَاحِدٌ لاَ يُذْكَرُ سِوَى اسْمِهِ.
10 وَتَتَحَوَّلُ الأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا مِنْ جَبْعَ شِمَالاً إِلَى رَمُّونَ جَنُوباً، إِلَى سَهْلٍ كَسَهْلِ عَرَبَةَ. أَمَّا أُورُشَلِيمُ فَلاَ تَبْرَحُ شَامِخَةً فِي مَوْقِعِهَا الْمُمْتَدِّ مِنْ بَوَّابَةِ بَنْيَامِينَ حَتَّى الْبَوَّابَةِ الأُولَى وَإِلَى بَوَّابَةِ الزَّوَايَا، وَمِنْ بُرْجِ حَنَنْئِيلَ إِلَى مَعَاصِرِ خَمْرِ الْمَلِكِ.
11 وَتُصْبِحُ آهِلَةً إِذْ لَنْ يَحُلَّ بِهَا دَمَارٌ ثَانِيَةً، وَتَكُونُ أُورُشَلِيمُ آمِنَةً.
12 وَهَذَا هُوَ الْبَلاَءُ الَّذِي يُعَاقِبُ بِهِ الرَّبُّ جَمِيعَ الشُّعُوبِ الَّذِينَ اجْتَمَعُوا عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ: تَتَهَرَّأُ لُحُومُهُمْ وَهُمْ وَاقِفُونَ عَلَى أَرْجُلِهِمْ، وَتَتَآكَلُ عُيُونُهُمْ فِي أَوْقَابِهَا، وَتَتْلَفُ أَلْسِنَتُهُمْ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِمْ.
13 فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يُلْقِي الرَّبُّ الرُّعْبَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ يَدُ الرَّجُلِ ضِدَّ يَدِ رَفِيقِهِ فِي آنٍ وَاحِدٍ وَيَهْلِكَانِ مَعاً.
14 وَيُحَارِبُ أَبْنَاءُ يَهُوذَا أَيْضاً دِفَاعاً عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَيَغْنَمُونَ ثَرَوَاتٍ مِنَ الأُمَمِ الْمُحِيطَةِ بِهَا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَفِضَّةٍ وَأَثْوَابٍ، بِوَفْرَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ.
15 وَيُصِيبُ بَلاَءٌ مُمَاثِلٌ الْخُيُولَ وَالْبِغَالَ وَالْجِمَالَ وَالْحَمِيرَ وَسَائِرَ الْبَهَائِمِ الْمَوْجُودَةِ دَاخِلَ هَذِهِ الْمُعَسْكَرَاتِ.
16 فَيَصْعَدُ النَّاجُونَ مِنَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي تَأَلَّبَتْ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، سَنَةً بَعْدَ سَنَةٍ لِيَعْبُدُوا الْمَلِكَ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ وَيَحْتَفِلُوا بِعِيدِ الْمَظَالِّ.
17 وَإِنْ تَقَاعَسَتْ أَيَّةُ عَشِيرَةٍ مِنْ عَشَائِرِ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ عَنِ الصُّعُودِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِتَسْجُدَ لِلْمَلِكِ الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ، يَمْتَنِعُ الْمَطَرُ عَنِ الْهُطُولِ عَلَى دِيَارِهِمْ.
18 وَإِنْ أَبَى أَهْلُ مِصْرَ الصُّعُودَ لِلاشْتِرَاكِ فِي الاحْتِفَالِ، يَحُلُّ بِهِمِ الْبَلاَءُ الَّذي يُعَاقِبُ بِهِ الرَّبُّ الأُمَمَ الَّتِي لاَ تَجِيءُ لِلاحْتِفَالِ بِعِيدِ الْمَظَالِّ.
19 هَذَا هُوَ عِقَابُ مِصْرَ وَعِقَابُ سَائِرِ الشُّعُوبِ الَّتِي تَأْبَى الْمَجِيءَ لِلاحْتِفَالِ بِعِيدِ الْمَظَالِّ.
20 وَيُنْقَشُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ عَلَى أَجْرَاسِ الْخَيْلِ: «قُدْسٌ لِلرَّبِّ». وَتَكُونُ الْقُدُورُ فِي الْهَيْكَلِ مُقَدَّسَةً كَالْمَنَاضِحِ الَّتِي أَمَامَ الْمَذْبَحِ.
21 بَلْ يَكُونُ كُلُّ قِدْرٍ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ وَفِي يَهُوذَا مُقَدَّساً لِلرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ، فَيُصْبِحُ فِي وُسْعِ الْمُقَرِّبِينَ أَنْ يَأْتُوا وَيَسْتَخْدِمُوا مَا يَشَاؤُونَ مِنْهَا، لِيَطْبُخُوا فِيهَا لَحْمَ الذَّبِيحَةِ. وَلاَ يَبْقَى فِي هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ تُجَّارٌ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ.
This is the end of Islam....
and your end, Palestinians?
|
....I cried that millions people in my city are unbelievers...no one seeks for God...God gives salvation to Muslims, Muslims do not want to know Him...Rejection of His salvation is an insult...I was insulted like my God...I prayed to God and asked to punish my city and China...I asked Him to destroy our city by earthquake but not to destroy houses of those who believe in Him....There is no other option...How to make people to look for God? To take away what they have...God should destroy their "peaceful world". God should destroy what they build...to show them that He exists and He is against their sinful lives...He will do it soon..in Revelation (the last book of the Bible) He promised to do it soon...And people will NOT seek for repentance....
I feel that the time of punishment of our world is near. May God Jesus return to our planet soon and destroy our world to construct here His Kingdom of Peace and Love and Justice..the Millennium Kingdom...
Come, Lord Jesus! Yes, COME! And judge the world...
Salvation is offered to all people..but a few will be saved. That is the justice too...

I bear witness that there is NO other God than the God of Israel. And Muhammad is the FALSE prophet in Islam.
