Christ Wins: Islam Loses

by B. Fox (owner of this website)

As those of us who are Jews and Christians wait for the Messiah (Christ) to appear on earth to bring justice to all; Muslims await the Mahdi whom they believe will reign as supreme ruler for 7 years. They believe he will rid the earth of the "people of the Book." That's us, folks!

Islam will never honor a peace treaty with Israel or anyone else they consider to be an enemy. They want us DEAD! No peaceful co-existence. This is taught them out of their own Koran from childhood. They hate us without exception.

They must kill us because:

1. The Koran commands it.

2. They must rule the world or the Koran is not true and that is unacceptable.

3. The existence of the Jews and Israel is an affront to their history and beliefs. The Jews are the holders of the promise from God's covenant. Isaac the child of promise versus Ishmael the son of the bond slave.

4. Christians are an extension of the Jews. Without the Jews there would be no Bible and no Savior. For those who embrace replacement theology think again. The Jews will one day be as numerous as the sands of the sea. Christians will be as numerous as the stars of heaven. This is the promise God made to Abraham. The Jews will have an earthly reign (physical). We, as Christians, will be heirs together with Christ in our glorified bodies (spiritual).

5. If Islam cannot destroy us (Jews and Christians) then everything they believe is a lie and that is unthinkable. That's why our destruction is their prime goal.

It is now understandable why the war of Ezekiel 38 and 39 is necessary. 82% of the army that marches against Israel will be destroyed by God, His saints and angels. They will be destroyed by a plague that is described in Zechariah chapter 14. It sounds very much like radiation poisoning which is why it will also destroy the animals also foretold in Zechariah. They also will kill each other.

I often wondered why God would even leave one sixth of them alive. Now I know. Some must survive to tell those at home what happened and that the God of the Jews is GOD, not Allah!

I am remembering a line from the movie Ten Commandments starring Charlton Heston and Yul Brenner. The Pharaoh makes the statement after his army is defeated by being drowned in the Red Sea. "Moses God IS God!"

This is the only way Islam can be defeated. God Himself must do it and HE WILL! That is our hope and our encouragement. No matter what you see happening on the world stage, REMEMBER THIS FACT!

November 18, 2006

New Revelation: Why would the Islamic/Russian armies (Ezekiel 38 & 39) march on Israel if they have nuclear warheads they can SEND to Israel? To me this says that somehow their nuclear capabilities will be destroyed or severely limited before that happens.

God Himself will destroy those armies on the Mountains of Israel. Only 1/6 of them will be left alive.

Israel is the only nation guaranteed to last forever in Scripture.

Bloodline of the Antichrist by Perry Stone

Notes:

1 John 2  Antichrist term started in 1 John. 1 John 2:18 points to a specific person in verses 22-23. In 1 John 4:2-3 the spirit of antichrist and many people.

 

What the Antichrist will say:

  1. Jesus in not the Son of God. Islam says God has no son and this is written on top of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. They think Jesus was one of 27 prophets recognized by Islam. THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE RESURRECTION.  The resurrection is the KEY to Christianity and salvation.
  2. Get to heaven by works! Fanatics use Jihad to get to heaven. Jihad guarantees automatic entrance to heaven; 72 virgins etc. The leaders of Islam keep their people poor and desperate. They believe 25 members of Jihadists family also gain entrance to heaven which explains why the mothers of these suicide bombers are so happy their sons and daughters kill themselves.

Note: Without Jesus’ priesthood no-one gets to Heaven.

 

The spirit of antichrist now working. See Daniel 7:8. Isaiah 14.  Next to Jesus and the major prophets there are more prophecies about THE antichrist than any other.

 

The beast in Daniel represents kingdoms and has 10 horns, teeth like iron, uses mouth to make war, nails like brass (Grecian empire) tramples over nations overpowering them ( Alexander the Great). Little horn: mouth that speaks great things.

 

Rev. 13:1 The beast system has body like a leopard (speed; Greece), mouth like a lion (Babylon, Persia which is now Iran), feet like a bear that tramples and crushes (Russia).

 

One man will organize these countries. Reformation of an Islamic Kingdom.

Caliphs: Turkey and the Ottoman empire. In 1923 Turkey dissolved the Caliph system. Shites want to start the Caliphs again and form an Islamic empire.

 

Sadaam thought he was the new Nebuchadnezzar. He spent millions rebuilding the original city of Babylon built by Nimrod who started all false religion. He invaded Kuwait but it was NOT FOR OIL. He wanted to annex it into the fertile crescent of the original Babylonian Empire which goes all the way to Lebanon, Israel and Egypt. That is the very territory the Antichrist seizes.

 

Bloodline started in Garden of Eden. Good and evil. All in twos.

  1. Tree of life with 12 kinds of fruit.
  2. Tree of knowledge of good and evil.

 

Gen 2:1

  1. Cain: Cain kills Abel. 2 lineages: Cain: 7 generations then stops
  2. Seth whom God raises up as the righteous seed. Continues to 7 generations to Enoch who is raptured.

 

Enoch raptured in year 988 just short of 1000 years. A thousand years is as one day and one day as a thousand years.  We are now 6,000 years into time and entering the 7 thousandth year.  The Rapture of the church coincides with this and ties in with Enoch who was the 7th generation.

 

1 John 3:12 spoke of Cain who was of that wicked one.  2nd thousand years included Noah’s flood. Noah, Shem, Ham, Japheth. Ham had 4 sons and one of them was Nimrod. Everyone started staying on mountains after the flood for obvious reasons, but Nimrod was a rebel who chose a valley. Moved into the Plains of Shinar. This is in Iraq. 

 

When the flood waters settled they go to the lowest point. This was Shinar. Bones of the flood victims settled there. Nimrod built the tower of Babel so God couldn’t flood it out ignoring the promise of God that the world would never be flooded again. Nimrod, a rebel, to defy God, built Babel. See Genesis 10. He built the very 1st cities. He was called the mighty one according to Jewish historian, Josephus.

 

Geber= giants. Mighty ones. Genesis 6: Nimrod was probably a giant. There were a race of giants in the earth before and after the flood to corrupt the seed and prevent the birth of Christ.

 

All false religions started under Nimrod and his wife Semiramis.

 

Abraham had 2 sons.

  1. The righteous seed: Isaac, father of the Jews.
  2. The evil seed: Ishmael (had 12 sons)

 

When Abraham pronounced the parting blessing on the two sons, he said Ishmael would be a wild ass of a man with his hand against every man. He would have the fat of the land. OIL. He would have the dew of heaven.

 

The dew of heaven meant they would live in tents or as nomads living outside and it is true to this day. Most of these descendents are in Arabia.

 

Isaac had Jacob and Esau.

  1. Esau (Edom): Jacob’s blessing on his son. By your sword shall you live. The fatness (oil) shall be yours. Dew from heaven (live outdoors)  They migrated to Jordan and are now the Palestinians. It was prophesied they would become restless and want to break the yoke of the oppression of Israel. They want a Palestinian state which is happening now. Proves that Israel would once again become a state which would rule over them. This prophecy has certainly come to pass.
  2. Esau has to raise up and beak this yoke off their neck. This is the Palestinain issue. Oslo accords.
  3. 1517 – 1917 under Turkish rule. In 1920 U.S. gained rights to Saudi Oil with $900,000 for 120,000 square miles in Arabia for 60 years. This access ran out in 2006.

 

Chavez: Pat Robertson said he was an evil man. He got Arabia to sign these rights over to him. Chavez wants to destroy America and Israel. He is connected to Al Quaida.  Pat was right.

 

Matt. 10:4 Judas Iscariot called the son of Perdition. The Antichrist is called the son of perdition.

 

Antichrist is NOT A JEW.

  1. No inference Jews accept antichrist as Messiah.
  2. Solomon’s temple not built by Jews. It was built by Gentiles commissioned by Solomon to do the building. Hiram of Lebanon built it.
  3. The Antichrist does NOT build the Tribulation days temple. He invades Jerusalem and takes over the ALREADY built temple half way through the Tribulation. His first headquarters is in Babylon.
  4. Elijah the prophet will build the Tribulation day temple. See Zecharaih. Elijah has to come and restore all things. He is one of the two witnesses. These 2 men will have great power. They will be able to call down fire from heaven among other things. After Ezekiel 38 and 39 the power of Islam will be severely depleted and they won’t be able to keep the Jews with the 2 witnesses helping them, from taking over the Temple Mount.

 

The Antichrist is a Muslim.

 

DJAL: The two witnesses called by Islam the Djal, King of the Jews. Muslims are expecting this. This will arise in the end of Days. Will rise between Syria and Iraq where the Kurds now live. 70 thousand Jews will be their followers. Before this appearance the world will experience famine for 2 years and 3rd year KFR letter will appear on foreheads of Djal.  Muslims will pray for protection from Djal. They won’t recognize  Elijah. Will help restore Israel (Islamic teaching) In Mark 9:12 Elijah will come and restore all things. Djal will take over the Temple Mount. Revelation 7 and 11.  the two witnesses (Djal) only have a season to rule according to Islam. Antichrist (Mahdi) kills the 2 witnesses leaving bodies out for 3 ½ days. God supernaturally raises them up and an Earthquake kills 7,000.

 

Mahdi: He comes to power at the End of Days. The false prophet will be accepted as Jesus. The Muslims don’t believe Jesus was ever crucified. Comes as Lamb with 2 horns. Comes acting like he is Jesus. The two horns represent Islam and Apostate Christianity. This false prophet comes after Djal dies. Now he builds an image that speaks and lives and this is the abomination that makes Jerusalem desolate. Suddenly you have to have a mark in the forehead mimicking the 144 thousand with the seal of God in their foreheads put there by GOD. The Mahdi becomes popular because he kills the two witnesses.

 

WHY PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING IN IRAQ

 

  1. Sunni: Killed the leaders of the shiite branches. Killed the first 11 leaders. The 11th leader had a son. They hid him in a well. He never reappeared.
  2. Shiites: Doctrine of the 12. Son hidden a cave or well supernaturally preserved by Allah. Will come back from cave or well as the Mahdi. Fire will appear in his hand. Ahmadinijad believes this and believes he will introduce the Mahdi. He believes the West has to be defeated before the Mahdi can appear.
  3. Sunnis and Shiites both believe the Mahdi will appear in Iraq. One branch of Islam blew up a gold domed mosque. Why? The well next to it is where the opposing branch of Islam believe the Mahdi will appear. They are blowing up each others mosques because they want the Mahdi to appear in THEIR mosque.
  4. In between them is  Al Sadr with his militia of 70,000. He is causing all the trouble in Iraq. He wears a black turban. It is believed the Mahdi will appear in a black turban. Al Sadr believes he has the Mahdi’s army and the Mahdi will appear among them in his black turban.

 

REVELATION  the white horse of the apocalypse is the Antichrist. (the Mahdi)

 

On Iraqi money it says God alone is God (God has no son) Also has a snake like beast with one horn.  White horse on their money also.

 

The Mahdi cannot appear as long as U.S. troops are there. As long as Democracy works the Mahdi can’t just come and take over. This is why they hate Democracy so much and hate America and Israel. The U.S. is the restrainer of the Antichrist whether people believe it or not.

 

There is a bad side to Democracy which makes it undesirable to many nations. It divides religions, encourages crime and homosexuality, drugs etc. Free choice also has its down side.

 

When we pull out of Iraq Ahminijad plans to annex Iraq because this is where their Mahdi comes from. Some even believe this is Osama Bin Ladin. He does live in caves and no one had been able to find him. The Muslims think this is a supernatural thing.

 

Think of it. America is restraining the Anti Christ!

 

These are my notes on Perry Stone’s sermon which he preached for over an hour at a very fast pace. Excuse any misspellings. I had to write fast.

Before Our Very Eyes
by
Jack Kinsella


One out of every five people is Muslim, amounting to 1.2 billion worldwide (only 12 percent of whom are Arab). Sprawled out over the globe as it is, Islam takes many forms. It is a religion without a centralized government, without an existing hierarchy, without denominations.

Although Islam was born some six hundred years after Christ and three hundred years after the completion of the canon of Scriptures, God not only foresaw, but foretold its rise and fall, its major battles, and its ultimate goals. And recorded them in advance, but concealed the details until the time appointed. 

This IS the appointed time, and what had formerly been completely invisible is now the elephant in the living room. 

When a thousand year old copy of the Book of Psalms emerged from an Irish peat bog in July, I really didn't pay that much attention. A thousand year old book is interesting, but it isn't unheard of. I saw a 2,000 year old copy of Isaiah at the Dome of the Tablets in Israel. 

So a thousand year old copy of part of the Bible didn't seem, at first blush, like it would yield much useful information. It was interesting, but more in the sense of, "Gee whiz, isn't that interesting? " than, "Holy Cow! That's incredible!" 

Until I looked a bit more closely at the Big Picture for the last days. 

Let's examine this together. 

First, let's consider the significance of the timing. The book was unearthed by an Irish guy with a bulldozer who was digging for peat in an Irish bog on July 20th, as Israel escalated the conflict with Hezbollah by launching its first ground incursions into Lebanon

Now, let's move on to the contents. The manuscript is a copy of the Irish Psalter, or Book of Psalms. Of all the possible pages, and all the possible Psalms (150 of them) this particular Psalter found its way into an Irish bog a thousand years ago, opened to Psalm 83. In fact, Psalm 83 is the only readable page

Let's look at Psalms 83, line by line, and in context. 

This particular Psalm is a plea for God's provision forIsrael 's security:

"Keep not Thou silence, O God: hold not Thy peace, and be not still, O God." 

The Psalmist goes on to identify the target of the threat: 

"For, lo, Thine enemies make a tumult: and They that hate Thee have lifted up the head." 

While Israel is the target, it is not the real enemy of Islam. The real enemy of Islam is Israel's God. 

Think of it this way. Israel bombed the city of Baalbek in Lebanon. While Baalbek was the target, and it is a Lebanese city, the enemy resides in Baalbek and is sheltered by Lebanon

Israel 's goal is to kill Hezbollah, not the city of Baalbek. And Israel has no interest in killing either Lebanese or in seizing Lebanon. If all the Hezbollah were eliminated, Lebanon would no longer be in Israel's gunsights. 

The Psalmist is pleading for Israel as the target, but the enemy's efforts are at defeating Israel's God. 

The enemy doesn't care a fig about Israel itself. It ignored Jerusalem for centuries until the Jews came back and declared a holy city unto their God.

The goal is not for Islam to occupy Israel . The goal is to eliminate the memory of the God who claims her. 

If all the Jews converted to Islam, the war would be over. The enemy is the God the Jews worship. Remove God from Jewish life, and you remove the enemy. 

"They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. " Israel is the name given the Jewish people BY God. 

"And He said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel : for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed." (Genesis 32:38) 

"For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against THEE:" Not against Israel as a place. Against Israel, named by God as God's PEOPLE. 

Now, let's examine who these enemies of God are. 

"The tabernacles of Edom , and the Ishmaelites; of Moab , and the Hagarenes; Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah."

"Edom" is another name for Esau, the father of the Arab peoples.

The Edomites and the Amalekites are descendents of Esau. The Moabites and Ammonites are the descendants of Lot. Moab is located in the Egyptian Sinai. Biblical Ammon is central Jordan.

The Hagarenes are descended through Hagar, the mother of Ishmael.

According to Galatians 4:25, "For this Agar [or, Hagar] is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children."

So the Hagarenes represent modern-day Saudi Arabia, the heart and soul of Islam. Gebal is the city of Jebeil in Lebanon, where eight Israeli soldiers lost their lives during ground operations on July 26. 

Amalek and the Phillistines are in modern Gaza, home to Hamas.

"Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot . Selah." 

According to this incredible prophecy, Assur ( Syria and Iraq ) are to join in to aid the children of Lot (Lebanon). 

Syria is supplying and equipping Hezbollah, and has styled itself as the the protector of Lebanon and the 'children of Lot', as Iraqi cities are racked with demonstrators demanding 'death to Israel ' and 'death to America ' as Israel's ally. 

So, now that we've identified the players. . . let's look at the ultimate goal. 

"Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession." 

What is the root cause of the Arab-Israeli wars? It isn't territorial possession. It is possession of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, but not for the Arabs. 

The antagonists are Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Egypt . . . which country would own Jerusalem?

The goal is not the conquest of Jerusalem for an Arab territorial possession. The goal is the conquest of God's Holy Mountain and God's Holy City for an Islamic religious possession. Ask any jihadi.

Follow along with me here. We've looked in previous briefings at Isaiah's prophecy of the 'burden of Damascus ,' -- "Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap." (Isaiah 17:1)

Since Damascus is the world's oldest continuously inhabited city, it is a safe conclusion that the 'burden of Damascus ' cannot be an historical event. It has never happened in the past, so it must be a prophecy for the future. 

In the same manner, there is no historical precedent for this grand alliance, NAMED BY NAME, ever entering into a confederacy against Israel to possess the 'Houses of God'. When they weren't fighting Israel separately, they were fighting each other.

Psalms 83 is not one of those 'dual fulfillment' prophecies that happened once in the past, and will be repeated in the last days.

The events outlined by this Psalm are future events, as is the eventual and total destruction of Damascus. And, like the burden of Damascus, it can only happen once.

Writes the Psalmist, "Let them be confounded and troubled for EVER; yea, let them be put to shame, and PERISH: That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth."

The current war is against Hezbollah, the 'Party of god' [Allah] in which all Hezbollah need do to claim victory is survive.

Israel can only claim victory over the Islamic jihadis by shaming Hezbollah in the eyes of the Arab world, and totally destroying Hezbollah as both a fighting force and a rallying cause.

It is a war between the forces of Allah and the forces of YHWH [Yahweh, or Jehovah] not between nations, and it is over the religious prize of Temple Mount.

Since both sides claim ownership based on what they claim as a Divine land grant, for either side to lose is an admission their religion is false, their god's promises are unreliable and their holy book is wrong. 

Which will prove [or disprove] to the [Islamic] nations that Israel's God is "the Most High over ALL the earth."

The fact that this Psalm surfaced after 1,000 years, opened to this prophecy, on exactly the same day the ground war was joined, between these exact enemies, over this exact prize, is no coincidence

In this generation, before our eyes, in the real world, with all eyes focused on this particular prize, is a literal fulfillment of Bible prophecy. Make no mistake. As they used to say in the military, "This is no drill!"

This is the first completely literal fulfillment of Bible prophecy since the restoration of Israel. And the second completely literal fulfillment of Bible prophecy since the beginning of the Church Age. 

To underscore its relevance, it was announced in advance by God Himself, in His own words, drawn from the depths of the earth after 1,000 years of waiting. 

Because what we are witnessing is the beginning of the END of the Church Age. 

And the coming of the Lord. 

Get excited! And tell your friends. 

"And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh." (Luke 21:28) 

"And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed." (Romans 13:11) 
Follow God or vanish? Why not both?

by Michael G. Mickey

(12-6-06)

Everyone's favorite radical Islamic leader, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has warned Western leaders to follow the path of God or "vanish from the face of the earth", according to a Breitbart.com article.

Many times in the past I have speculated concerning what will happen in the aftermath of the Rapture of the Church, particularly how the radical Islamic world will react to it. Ahmadinejad' s words have me thinking on that topic again, especially when combined with other recurrent themes of his like the destruction of Israel. Although I'm certain Ahmadinejad is referring to a different kind of vanishing from the face of the earth than the Rapture of the Church, is there any doubt that the Islamic world will be incredibly emboldened by the event when it occurs? Could it even play a role in bringing about the Gog-Magog event described in Ezekiel 38 & 39? Quite possibly, in my opinion. Let me explain.

In 2nd Thessalonians 2, one of the most abused chapters of Scripture used by those trying to disprove a pre-tribulational Rapture of the Church I might add, we find that the Antichrist, the son of perdition described in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3, will not come forth to begin the day of Christ (the Tribulation Period) until he who letteth (or restrains) him is taken out of the way (2nd Thessalonians 2:7).

We who believe in a pre-tribulational Rapture believe that the "he who letteth" spoken of in this passage of Scripture is symbolic of the Holy Spirit which dwells inside all true believers in Christ, as seen in 1st Corinthians 3:16: "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?"

In 1st Corinthians 6:19, we see the same: "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?"

In 2nd Corinthians 6:16, we see the same as well: "And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people."

On the topic of the restraining power of the Holy Spirit, David Guzik writes:

Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming.

a. When I was still with you I told you these things: Paul was only with the Thessalonians a few weeks (Acts 17:1-10). But Paul thought it important to teach these brand new Christians about Biblical prophecy, and he taught them in some detail.

b. And now you know what is restraining: For now, Satan and the man of sin are being restrained. The principle of their working is now present (the mystery of lawlessness is already at work). But at the right time, the Holy Spirit (He who restrains) who restrains their full revelation will be taken out of the way.

c. Taken out of the way: We should not think that the Holy Spirit would leave the earth during the Great Tribulation. He will be present on the earth during the Great Tribulation because many are saved, sealed, and serve God during this period (Revelation 7:3-14 and 14:1-5), and this can’t happen without the ministry of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is taken out of the way, not removed.

i. “The phrase is used of any person or thing which is taken out of the way, whether by death or other removal.” (Alford)

ii. Some see this as the end of a dispensation: “The special presence of the Spirit as the indweller of saints will terminate abruptly at the parousia as it began abruptly at Pentecost. Once the body of Christ has been caught away to heaven, the Spirit’s ministry will revert back to what he did for believers during the Old Testament period.” (Thomas)

d. The mystery of lawlessness is already at work: This great principle of evil is already present in the world. It will be ultimately unveiled in the man of sin, but he does not introduce a new wickedness into the world, only a intensity of prior wickedness.

i. Right now, this lawlessness is a mystery – that it is, it can only be seen and understood by revelation. Otherwise it is hidden. “It is not open sin and wickedness, but dissembled piety, specious errors, wickedness under a form of godliness cunningly managed, that is here meant.” (Poole)

e. And then the lawless one will be revealed: Paul states two certain facts about the man of sin, here called the lawless one. First, it is certain that the lawless one will be revealed when the Holy Spirit removes His restraint. Second, it is certain that the lawless one will be destroyed by the mere brightness of Jesus at His coming.

So, remove the Church via the Rapture and He who restrains the Antichrist, the Holy Spirit, will be taken out of the way, paving the way for the Antichrist to ride out onto the world stage, beginning the Tribulation Period as seen in Revelation 6:2, descriptive of Christ opening the first seal judgment.

Immediately following the advent of Antichrist, we note that the red horse of war rides out when Christ opens the second seal. A sword will be given unto its rider who takes peace from the earth (Revelation 6:4).

Put it all together. Do we have a potential end times scenario?

Saying that it is near, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad continues to threaten Israel with destruction, this taking place as the revived Roman empire of Bible prophecy pushes hard for peace in the Middle East, which is undoubtedly posturing for the future fulfillment of Daniel 9:27 (the advent of Antichrist) to occur.

What would happen if tomorrow, for example, the Rapture of the Church occurred and simultaneously (or shortly thereafter) a leader of Roman descent confirmed a seven-year peace covenant in the Middle East?

Would the Rapture lead Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (and the vast majority of the Muslim world) to believe that many "infidels" who refused to worship their god "vanished from the face of the earth" as the Iranian president is presently stating many from the West are going to if we don't "follow the path of God" as defined by the Islamic world? I certainly think so.

If the Muslim world and power-hungry Russia saw that the United States, the perceived protector of Israel, was near-crippled by the Rapture and believed the United States couldn't possibly respond militarily to an all-out assault on Israel, would that be enough of a nudge to kick start the Gog-Magog battle described in Ezekiel 38 & 39? Perhaps. Although I admit I'm merely speculating, building off the odd choice of words Iran's Ahmadinejad used in his most recent threatening language against the West, I think something like this could occur in the prophetic future, although I'd never be so bold as to put God in a box concerning His prophetic plan.

Follow the path of God or vanish from the face of the earth? Why not both?

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says we need to follow the path of his god or vanish from the face of the earth. I, on the other hand, believe that if we follow the path set forth by our God, which is salvation obtained by grace through faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we are someday going to vanish from the face of the earth in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye!

1st Corinthians 15:51-52: Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

The Body of Christ, His Church, will someday be changed in an instant as described above and vanish from the face of the earth! Can you imagine how that event is going to change the composition of our world and swing the balance of military and economic power? Talk about turning the world on its head!

From the moment the Rapture takes place, conditions on earth will get worse with every passing day until the visible, physical, bodily return of Jesus Christ and His saints at Armageddon takes place as seen in Jude 1:14: Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,

 

Praise the God of the Jews and Christians and Jesus Christ who will rule and reign forever, AMEN.

 

Prayer for Salvation: Jesus Christ is the Son of God. If we have invited Jesus to come and live within us and be the Lord of our lives then our inheritance in the future kingdom is assured.

God's word says in John 14:6, "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

In order to invite Jesus to be your Savior and Lord, you must believe in you heart that He is the Son of God, believe that He died upon the cross of Calvary as an atonement for your wrong doings, and believe that He arose from death and the grave. We must confess and repent of our sins and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. If you have never done this then stop right now and pray this prayer.

Heavenly Father, I come to You in the Name of Jesus repenting and asking forgiveness of all my sins. Your Word says, "whosoever shall call on the Name of the Lord shall be saved" (Acts 2:21). I am calling on You. I pray and ask Jesus to come into my heart and be Lord over my life according to Romans 10:9-10. "If thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised Him from the dead thou shalt be saved" I do that now. I confess that Jesus is Lord, and I believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. I am a Christian ..a child of Almighty God! I am saved!

You are now an heir to the Kingdom of God! Your future is assured. I want to encourage you to find a church in your local area to attend. Tell someone that you have just received Jesus as your Lord. Than start digging into God's Word.
