The only way to guarantee protection is by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal Savior now. Romans 10:9. Why will these people be saved ? Because during a time when they are crying out for help, and have no where else to turn they will seek the Lord whom at this time will keep His promise to "POUR OUT MY SPIRIT UPON ALL FLESH; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out My Spirit. And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come. AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS THAT WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE DELIVERED: for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord has said, and in the "remnant" whom the Lord shall call. Joel 2:28-32. Also see Matthew 24:29-31. Whom is that remnant ? Interestingly enough Revelation 12:17 reads " And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the "remnant" of her seed, WHICH KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD(INCLUDING THE SEVENTH DAY BIBLICAL SABBATH:FRIDAY SUNDOWN TO SATURDAY SUNDOWN), AND HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST. Revelation 12:17......In Romans 3:10 it states, "As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understands, there is none that seeks after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that does good, no, not one". So all humanity is under the law(Whosoever commits sin transgresses also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins; and in Him is no sin.) except for those whom have surrendered their lives to the Lord Jesus (Yeshua) Christ. Then how are we able to keep those commandments ? Does not Hebrews 10:14-18 state," For by One offering He has perfected forever them that are sanctified. Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that He had said before, This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin". How is the Holy Spirit a witness ? "Know you not that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you ?" 1 Corinthians 3:16. Moreover, "now we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ stead, be you reconciled to God. For He has made Him to be sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him". 1 Corinthians 5:20-21. Good News indeed ! Because "you see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And the base things of the world, and things which are despised, has God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should boast in His presence. But of Him are you in Christ Jesus, who to God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, he that boast, let him boast in the Lord". 1 Corinthians 1:26-31.
In Matthew 9:12-13 Jesus states, "They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. But go you and learn what that means, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice; for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance". Today, Christians are called to forgive their enemies, because we are under a period of God's grace. Now let's say God calls someone whom is very hard hearted, and He wants that individual to forgive his enemies, and make the effort to love that enemy as a brother. The individual whom is called agrees to live the way of Christ, because they "can do all things through Christ which strengthens" that individual. Philippians 4:13. It would be softening one's heart, and being willing to depart from a past way of life while at the same time having the necessary courage to commit to God's new way of life for that individual(During a time when the school of hardknock's lifestyle is being flaunted all over the planet, and the world says retaliation is definately in). The Apostle Paul was initially a violent man, but he softened his heart, and the Lord was able to use him for His divine purposes. Did not the Lord say, "And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence and, the violent take it by force" ? Matthew 11:12. Paul got many trials while he lived, and was called to endure them. However, let's say another individual is living a Christian life in which he endures no hardship (Threats of gangwarfare/violence, starvation, whatever, etc., etc., etc..), because the Bible states, "If we suffer we shall also reign with Him: If we deny Him He will also deny us". 2 Timothy 2:12. And, "Yea, all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. " 2 Timothy 3:12-13. Maybe, toughness via trials may bring out a lukewarm Christian's eagerness to live holy for the Lord. That's where Great Tribulation comes in. It is a course designed to cause one to cry out to God, and realize God will be with His people in trouble. Jesus said, "And I say to you MY FRIENDS, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I shall forwarn you who you shall fear: Fear Him, which after He has killed has power to cast into hell; yea, I say to you, Fear Him". A lawmaker in the American state of Georgia has introduced a bill in whence Georgians whom are guilty of Capital Punishment would get guillotined which fits in exactly with scripture....."And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgement was given to them: and I saw the souls of them that was "beheaded" for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither received his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years". Compliments of Revelation 20:4.
Today, Most Israelis have accepted the Torah, but have denied faith in the Lord Yeshua(Jesus Christ) Messiah as a whole while most Christians have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ, and have denied the observance of relevant portions of the Torah (Including observation of God's Seventh Day holy shabbat). Could Ezekiel chapter 37 be the fulfillment of this whole house of Israel experiencing salvation ? Could this be a time in whence many from one accepts the most important issues regarding salvation from the other ? One of the things needed in Israel today is manpower to help ward off her foes ! What if something occured preventing the U.S. from aiding Israel ? A second mega-wave of immigrants could be crucial to her survival; moreover, Jesus made clear there would be believers in the land of Israel in the last days. Luke 21:20-24. Multitudes of messianic Jews will accept Him, while, multitudes of Christians are now embracing the Torah. The combination of the two could cause conflict in the land, but an international emergency(New settlements in the land infuriates the Arabs) could overcome such an event. Many Israelites will turn to Jesus Christ ! The book of Revelation 1:7 parallels at the worldwide scope what Zechariah 12:10 localises for Israel. It states, " And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon THE INHABITANTS OF JERUSALEM, the Spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for Him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. In the Tanakh(The Old Testament) if we read Exodus 20:8-11 it states, "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shall you labor and do all your work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord your God: In it you shall not do any work, you nor your son, nor your daughter, your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it". NO ! I am not saying Jesus Christ is the equivalent of the sabbath day "for the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath day". Matthew 12:8. But, it is His day, and the one He observed Himself. Let's see what we have thus far..........
1.) The shabbat should be remembered;
2.) It should be kept holy, and those whom observe it will be
"set apart" for a holy purpose: Exodus 31:13-18. It is a
sign that those whom observe it will be considered the people
of El Elohim (God in Hebrew);
3.) God commands us to do our labor on the other six days of the
week, and one whom ignores this is just as guilty even if he
keeps the sabbath day holy; moreover, in the Garden of Eden
when God first formed man He, "took the man and put him in
the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it" Genesis 2:15;
4.) It provides the title of the One who commanded it's
observance along with His rank: The Lord (Yehovah-The Self-
Existent/Eternal) God (Elohiym-Supreme God);
5.) It informs us this is His day and no other;
6.) It informs us all His created beings should rest on this day and it should not be
used for the purposes of doing work; nor for doing their
own pleasure:Isaiah 58:12-14;
7.) It informs us what He created;
8.) It was blessed;
9.) It was sanctified;
10.) and finally it informs us God obeyed His own command. Genesis 2:2-3.
In the book of James it reads "Whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For He that said, Donot commit adultery, said also, Donot kill. Now if you commit no adultery, yet if you kill, you are become a transgressor of the law". As for those Christians who say keeping the commandments is legalistic/bondage the scriptures continue stating "So speak you, and so do, as they will be judged by THE LAW OF LIBERTY". James 2:10-12. That doesn't sound like bondage to me. Yet, looking at what is written in the book of James it list some of the Ten Commandments the same way Romans 13:8-10 does. It informs us how to love our fellow human beings by listing some of the Ten Commandments, but only by looking in the contents of the Old Testament will we see those commandments which tell us how to love God Himself which is the greatest commandment. Paul went to the Ten Commandments to reveal it's necessity and eternity. "What shall we say then ? Is the law sin ? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, You shall not covet". Moreover,"Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.....For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:. Romans 7:7;12; 22. Where did Paul get that direct quote from ? Psalm 1:2. To take away that quote, Should we also take away the Psalms as well ? God forbid !
I strongly believe someday all of this will be challenged again in an international contest of good and evil. Nevertheless, those whom accept the Torah, but deny Jesus Christ have denied the Prince of life Whom without can be no eternity. The first time the human race gathered together for the exclusive purpose of creating an international system to rule themselves they left God out of the picture. It was an idea conceived in the mind of that same deadly adversary who slid into the Garden of Eden to plant his wicked seeds of rebellion. The same "god of this world" who deceived our first parents, and left the destructive manifestations of sin to poison the human lineage ever since. 2 Corinthians 4:3-5. The region I am refering to comprises the same geographical territory manifested in the beginning pages of the Bible. Today, that region seemingly pledges allegiance to Mig 21 and F-16 jet fighters, and fills the air with toxic flames as we approach the ending phrases in the Bible. Once again those who aspire to rule a global system will elect a prominant ruler who's satan deceived heart will be magnified for the sole purpose of promoting a false sense of peace on earth....before plunging mankind into a fatalistic war of greed and exploitation. This region will once again become an important tool in a repetitive pattern to dominate all people. Genesis 10:8-10; 11:1-9; Isaiah 47; Revelation 14:8; 18. So sucessful will be this ruler (NO!!!!!! Not Saddam Hussein!!!!!) that those whose names are not written in the book of life will feel he is worthy to be adored and worshipped. Revelation 13:4. The Caesars before him were worshipped as gods, and he will demand no less. In sooth, on an inscription across the street from the United Nations it reads "...And they shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore...." Micah 4:3. Anyone who reads the Bible will realize this verse is attached to two preceeding verses, and they cannot be separated. So, as these men and women sit and implement significant decisions to promote international policies in this world, I can only hope they are talking about including our glorious King Jesus Christ as He returns to take power. Yet, as we walk down the streets of a pseudo-peace there is a term that comes to mind. Anyone whom has read about the fiery ordeal that sent an estimated 24 million Europeans to their deaths during World War 2 will realize Germany's Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, sought to establish "The Order" to rule the people of Europe (And beyond for all I know); soon enough, someone will seek to establish the "The New World Order" to do the same to the rest of the planet. Question ? Does the terminology sound familiar, Or what ? Most are under a death sentence, and only by accepting Jesus suffering on the cross at Calvary where His blood was shed to cover our sins, and eradicate them can we be released to the eternal glorious future that His coming kingdom has to offer, Will we pay heed ? Colossians 1:17-23; Romans 3:9-25. Only God knows the true way to peace, and a King can only rule a kingdom if He has subjects to rule. God invites us to join His holy angels as subjects of that beloved kingdom. Isaiah 11:1-13. So please take His hand today, and tell Him that you want to be saved, and in Jesus Christ Holy name I pray you are saved
