"It Is His Angel"

 Acts 12:13-16  "When he knocked on the door of the entrance gate, a maid named Rhoda came to answer. ¹⁴ Although she recognized Peter’s voice, out of joy she did not open the gate but ran in and announced that Peter was standing in front of the gate. ¹⁵ They said to her, “You’re crazy!” But she kept insisting it was so. But they were saying, “It is his angel.”

¹⁶ But Peter kept on knocking. When they opened the gate, they saw him and were amazed!"

 

Been praying for years for an event that happened yesterday and I spent the whole day the same as the people who had gathered to pray for Peter in prison.  "No way, he can't be out of prison, our prayers don't work like that."

He can't be here, maybe "It is his angel."

Oh me of little faith. 

What You Don't Know Can Kill You

If you do not know that Jerusalem and Israel are the center of God's plan and the end of this evil age, that lack of knowledge could kill you.

If you don't understand that the Post-Tribulation view of the rapture is correct, that could result in you falling away.

If you do not know that your hope rests entirely on Yeshua the Messiah of Israel, you could be killed relying on other things, people, systems, and stuff.

  

Clearing the Yard of Years of Over Growth

 Over and over again, the same lesson was shown to me.

It is going to be very costly to be someone's covering or protection.

If you put your trust in a covering or protection that can be over-powered or beaten, you will eventually be found out and both them and you will be sent off to a camp of some sort.

We need to be led by God both in protecting and being protected, as The Day approaches. 

 

Alex Jones, Kanye West, Foxnews, Trump, Zionist, and What Really Matters

 It struck me as I was re-listening to that podcast in the previous post that some people will stop listening when Alex Jones is mentioned, or when Kanye West is mentioned. Those people will be "turned off" by those two names and will discount everything this brave survivor has to say.

Those people are being played for a fool.

Those people have given over their right to receive truth.

Those people have blocked themselves from receiving truth because the messenger is an ass_ole!

Guess who else were ass_oles, Martin Luther and John Calvin, are you going to discount the whole of the reformation?

Sometimes the messenger is an ass_ole, listen to the message anyway. 

 

LOVE TRUTH 

Don't think that the fact that you are "woke" or "right wing" or a "trumper" or an "anti-trumper" or a zionist or an anti-semite, make you think that you can wholesale reject people or information from the other side. There was at least on Zealot in the 12 disciples, there were no Pharisees! 

Not Jews Worshippers of Ba’al

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDr-xPKSmTA   

This young woman and the interviewer do a very grace filled way of exposing evil.

One point stood out to me young woman stated that her family publicly identified as Jewish people but privately they worshiped Baal. So here they are, worshiping a false God, power-hungry, money hungry, doing a lot of people dirty and behind the scenes running things, running media, running entertainment running things but here’s the point Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson are missing privately they worshiped Baal and they do far more horrible things than Candace or Tucker are accusing them of.  But the true Jew is still still the chosen people the sons of Abraham Isaac and Jacob. His plan is still to bless the world through them but it will be during the millennial reign after a horrific time of Jacob’s trouble which we call the great tribulation  but the Bible specifically calls Jacob’s trouble. The miracle this time around will be gentiles standing up for this persecuted, murdered, raped, people in those days. But gentiles will once again fail in this task if we follow the reformers, replacement theology, and the preterist doctrine. Those “Christians” who have no idea how God’s plans for Israel his chosen people fit in to their belief system. How many Christians are seeking to establish the kingdom of God on earth right now that’s wrong,  it’s heresy and it has lead to horrible crimes against humanity from the crusades, pogroms inquisitions and feeling justified in killing your enemies over doctrine.  (I am looking at you Calvin the great.)

GAZA Lies and the Soon Coming Necessary Destruction of Jerusalem

 Why I Stand with Israel

I support Israel not primarily because of my eschatology, but because my faith calls me to love my neighbors and contend for justice.

First, the Jewish people are the single most consistently persecuted minority people in human history. From ancient to modern genocides, they have been hunted, hated, and murdered more than any other minority people group in the world. They have suffered in ways few can comprehend. Tragically, much of this pain has come at the hands of professing Christians. Recognizing this glaring fact of history is a part of what it means to be aware of reality, to "read the room" at this moment in history.

Most Jews are aware of the long history of Christian mistreatment of Jews. Most Christians have no idea. Christianity's selective memory / historical amnesia doesn't just fuel misunderstanding, it allows unrepentant sins to continue and even be repeated.

My support for Israel is a practical extension of my Christian faith that calls us to defend the poor, the marginalized, and the oppressed. To care about justice is to care about those suffering injustice.

Now hear me clearly: Palestinian children are just as precious as Jewish children. Their suffering is real, and it breaks my heart. Their pain, however, stems from their own corrupt leaders who have consistently chosen to trade offers of peace for toxic ideologies, particularly the more racist aspects of Islamic eschatology and Islamic replacement theology. A theological vision that seeks to carry out a genocide against the Jewish people causes everyone involved to suffer.

This brings me to theology. Any version of “Replacement Theology” (whether it's called Fulfillment Theology or Inclusion Theology) that erases Israel’s future is structural antisemitism. This doesn't mean that everyone who adheres to these systems hates Jews. Many are sincere, but sincerity does not sanctify error. To erase the Jewish people’s identity, purpose, and covenantal destiny is to do what no other form of racism dares: claim that God Himself has rejected an entire ethnic people.

That is theological racism. It is Christianity's longest and most pervasive unrepentant sin. I will have no part in it.

My two cents... The leaders of Gaza lie and let their people die. The surrounding Arab community (did you know Egypt has a border with Gaza and could let all the refugees into their country if they wanted to) does not ever help Gaza, because Gaza is a tool to be used to incite Jewish hatred. The gullible West falls for it because the principalities and powers that rule over every nation but Israel hate the God of Israel. The God of Israel is God Most High and he has a plan for the end of this age that includes an anti-christ (probably currently residing in Syria), a vicious attack from all the nations that surround Israel that leads to a horrible destruction in the land of Israel. For a brief time the current nation state of Israel will enjoy a time of peace and a rebuilt temple. The clock that is Jerusalem will be ticking at that point. Forget saving up for your kids college, forget your 401K, the Kingdom is coming. If this evil age extends beyond 2034, I will be very, very surprised.

Cohen Bitter Old Man

 Leonard Cohen was incredibly talented. 

Sadly, somewhere a long the line, he had a choice and that choice was to humbly accept the Messiah of Israel or to turn inward.

Based on this lyric he turned inward, "As he died to make men holy
Let us die to make things cheap"

But somehow the truth is the gifts and calling of God are not withdrawn.

We have indeed made a cheap gospel, cheap grace, I think Bonhoeffer called it.

It sells.  It fills seats.  It self perpetuates.  It does not invite persecution.  It is ear-tickling.

It is time to call a lie, a lie, the time is too short to play games.  

Beyond Categories

 I want to say, "Only Satan would want you to dig up the sins of your past in great detail."

But is that true?

Remember we serve the God of Israel and at one point He led Samson to marry a Philistine.  It  made no sense to his parents and frankly, it makes no sense to me, but there it is staring us in the face. What will we do with it?

How can we wrestle with the scriptures? 

Pause, SELAH, for a Moment of Introspection

27 people simultaneously OD on the streets of Baltimore. 

Here and gone in the "news cycle".  No tears, no cries, no real investigation.

27 Campers and counselors killed in Texas flooding.  We are broken with sorrow, funerals are paid for, heroic rescue efforts for days afterward. Go Fund Me's all over the place.

 HHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMM?

Way back in the day I worked at a "home" for court placed kids whose parents had many issues that spilled over on to them.  I have kept in touch with a few of them and one of them made this video.

I love it.

Where are the tears, where are the programs, where is the funding for those being actively killed by the greed that drives the illicit drug industry?
