The Rise of the New Anti-Semitism in the Last Days

Jeremiah 31:31-36
“The time is coming,” declares the LORD, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah.
It will not be like the covenant I made with their forefathers when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke my covenant, though I was a husband to them,” declares the LORD.
“This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time,” declares the LORD. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, `Know the LORD,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest,” declares the LORD. “For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.”
This is what the LORD says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar– the LORD Almighty is his name:
“Only if these decrees vanish from my sight,” declares the LORD, “will the descendants of Israel ever cease to be a nation before me.”

According to Raul Hilberg, in The Destruction of the European Jews, the Nazi evil of the Holocaust during World War II, developed out of three mandates of the past:

PseudoChristian leaders had said: “You cannot live among us as Jews.”

The secular rulers following them stated: “You cannot live among us.”

The German Nazis then decreed: “You cannot live.”

Such irony that the Palestinians equate the Nazi swastika with Israel’s right to the land that God gave the Jews as their inheritance.

Deuteronomy 1:6-8

The LORD our God said to us at Horeb, “You have stayed long enough at this mountain.
Break camp and advance into the hill country of the Amorites; go to all the neighboring peoples in the Arabah, in the mountains, in the western foothills, in the Negev and along the coast, to the land of the Canaanites and to Lebanon, as far as the great river, the Euphrates.
See, I have given you this land. Go in and take possession of the land that the LORD swore he would give to your fathers–to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob–and to their descendants after them.”

It is my firm belief that a fair reading of the New Testament, together with a commitment to Jesus as Messiah, Saviour and Lord, far from leading to anti-Semitism, will lead to a love and respect for the Jewish people whether or not they believe in Christ. The Jews are God’s chosen people, not for anything they have done, but because God keeps His Word. Christians are blessed to have been adopted or ‘grafted into’ the vine, which is Jesus Christ.

Deuteronomy 7:5-7
For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.

Romans 11:16-18
If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root,

Luke 21:24

They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

Post Rapture Demographics

November 11, 2015 By Trumpeter Leave a Comment

Oskar Schindler is coming to mind…how much is a soul worth?

Based on the title and subject of this website, it's almost a moot point to say that I am a firm believer in a PreTrib Rapture.

After the church is raptured, how will global demographics shift?

We hope that most Christians will participate in the Blessed Hope, but the truth of the matter is many who claim to be Christians will be left behind, as alluded to by Christ when He said, "I never knew you, depart from me, you workers of lawlessness".

Currently in the world there are about:

2.2 billion Christians
1.5 billion Muslims
1.0 billion Buddhists
1.0 billion Hindus
and only 18 million Jews plus
an assortment of other smaller relgions which in comparision are less significant.

Even if only half of all professing Christians were raptured, the global majority would instantly be those who practice Islam, the Muslims.

The Book of Daniel accurately predicts to the day when Messiah would enter Jerusalem, riding on the colt of a donkey. For those who are interested, the Book of Daniel also predicts to the day when Israel would be regathered as a Nation, May 14, 1948, and the day that Jerusalem would be recaptured as the capital of Israel once again, June 7, 1967. These are indisputable facts which prove that the Bible is true, but they can only be understood by the scholar who is not lazy, but seeking the truth with effort to prove all things. The casual reader will either accept or dismiss these facts. The purpose of this post is not to prove these two facts, but just to provide an update on the state of the world we live in.

The Book of Daniel goes on to predict that after the Messiah enters Jerusalem riding on a donkey, the destruction of Jerusalem by the people of the Prince who shall come is foretold. This Prince is more commonly referred to as the AntiChrist. We know that Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans in 70 A.D., so the future Prince will somehow be a ruler of a revived Roman Empire. For many decades this a common belief was that this Prince might be an ecumenical Pope. But now there is a new possibility to consider. A Revived Roman Empire is not required to be Western, but can potentially be Eastern in thought and religion. In other words, the Prince who shall come might not be an ecumenical Pope afterall, but a Muslim. How can this be?

I can think of two ways this can happen:

1) Currently there is a push to get the country of Turkey admitted to the European Union. Even President Barak Obama for some unknown or at least undisclosed reason is pushing for Turkey's inclusion in the E.U. If Turkey is admitted to the European Union then Muslims would instantly become the largest demographic in the entire European Union. The old adage, "majority rules" would most definitely apply.

2) Then again, when the Rapture happens, the Muslims will instantly become the majority not only in the European Union, but in the whole world.

Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour…

But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things. I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth…

Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father.

Click here: In case you think I'm off base or exaggerating about the Islamic intention to 'rule the world'. This is just 1 of thousands of examples.

Never before in the history of the world have the world's three largest religions simultaneously been anticipating that their messiah can appear at any moment.

1) All Christians are looking forward to the return of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, though both the Rapture and the Second Coming. Most Christians are looking forward to the Rapture of the Church before the Tribulation.

2) The Jews are expecting their Messiah to appear as a mortal man, not God in the flesh.

3) The Muslims' are expecting their messiah who is known as the Mahdi or the Twelth Imam, a caliph who will be a leader over all Islam.

A few other reasons to consider why the AntiChrist may be connected to Islam are:

Islam explicity states that God has no son.

Muslims execute infidels by beheading, which is the form of execution described in the Book of Revelation describing the time on Earth prior to the Second Coming of Jesus.

Muslims are commanded to kill Jews in their holy book, the Koran.

The Muslim god, Allah, is described as the greatest of deceivers in the Koran, while in the Holy Bible a similar character is refered to as The Father of Lies, the Devil himself. God as described in the Holy Bible is loving and forgiving, Faithful and True.

The Greek characters for the number 666 known as 'The Mark of the Beast' which John wrote of in Revelation while on the Island of Patmos could possibly be Arabic script for "The Name of Allah".

Adolph Hitler (a type of AntiChrist) and the Muslims were more than good friends and shared a common goal of hating and killing Jews.

Not all muslims are terrorists, but almost without exception, all terrorists are muslim. The idea of earning god's approval for blowing innocent people to bits is, well, Satanic. One name for Satan is Apollyon, or 'the Destroyer'.

One prophecy teacher, Dr. Joe VanKoevering, lays out a compelling argument that the identity of Man of Sin aka the Assyrian, can be known and that there is only one person on Earth today who meets the requirements of both the Mahdi and the AntiChrist; his name is the Crown Prince El Hassan bin Talal of Jordan and as a Hashemite is a direct descendant of Mohammed the Prophet of Islam, but he is also related to both the Sunnis and the Shiites. His split ancestry could be quite convenient in uniting the two major factions of Islam. He is the uncle to the current King of Jordan, and was in line to be the King himself until the last moment. Could be.

So what's next? God only knows. If Iran gets their way, the United States under President Obama will either be unwilling or incapable of defending their ally, Israel, when the time comes for Iran to attempt to make good on their threats of "wiping Israel off the map". Iran is as close as a few weeks away from having enough highly enriched uranium to manufacture their own nuclear bomb. For Israel this is unacceptable.

Many Christian prophecy teachers (and students) believe that the Psalm 83 War can happen before the war described in Ezekiel 38, and all agree that the Rapture can happen at any moment.

The last 7 years before Jesus returns are referred to as the Tribulation. This period of time begins when the AntiChrist confirms a peace treaty between Israel and the nations or the many people other than Israel. This man will appear to be a peace maker, but according to God's word he will be a liar and will destroy many with peace. 3 1/2 years after the peace treaty is confirmed he will enter the rebuilt Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and declare himself to be God, and will perform apparent 'miracles' that many will marvel at, but in reality, he will be filled with the spirit of the Devil himself. It will be Hell on Earth during the last 3 1/2 years before Jesus returns.

When Jesus returns He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.

If you haven't yet put your trust in Jesus, do so while there is still time. God is a loving God, but also a God of justice and righteousness. In a quiet place, confess to God that you are a sinner because you have broken His laws and that you want His forgiveness by receiving His free gift of salvation. Seek the truth and you will find it. Jesus Christ paid the price for your sin with His very blood, believe it. He died for you but He also conquered death and rose from the dead. Ask God to show you that He is Faithful and True and you too will step into eternal paradise at the appointed time.

“I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you,and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
Genesis 12:2-3

"Thus says the Lord God:
'Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone,and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own Land."
Ezekiel 37:21

Some Facts about Israel

July 4, 2006 By Trumpeter Leave a Comment

So the BIG question is whether Syria will feel threatened enough or justfied enough by Israel’s deeper incursion into Lebanon to directly attack Israel. So far, Syria has been using the terrorist organization called Hezbollah as their instrument of harm against Israel. It still ceases to amaze me how the world press reports that Israel’s response is overblown. What other county would tolerate being the target of terrorist rockets from across their border year after year? I’ve always been surprised at Israel’s patience in not being more proactive in their response towards the daily attacks of their enemies. Well it looks like their patience has run out… so far over 300 have died in Lebanon and 29 in Israel. If Syria, or for that matter Iran, becomes directly involved in this conflict then there will be little doubt that the tiny little country of Israel will have no choice but to resort to the use of nuclear weapons to assure her survival. Then the prophecy of Damascus, Syria being utterly destroyed will finally be fulfilled (Isaiah 17:1) . The temperature is rising, it’s getting hotter everywhere.

ARAB REFUGEES FROM ISRAEL BEGAN CALLING THEMSELVES “PALESTINIANS” IN 1967, TWO DECADES AFTER (MODERN) ISRAELI STATEHOOD;
AFTER CONQUERING THE LAND IN 1272 B.C., JEWS RULED IT FOR A THOUSAND YEARS AND MAINTAINED A CONTINUOUS PRESENCE THERE FOR 3,300 YEARS;
FOR OVER 3,300 YEARS, JERUSALEM WAS THE JEWISH CAPITAL. IT WAS NEVER THE CAPITAL OF ANY ARAB OR MUSLIM ENTITY. EVEN UNDER JORDANIAN RULE, (EAST) JERUSALEM WAS NOT MADE THE CAPITAL, AND NO ARAB LEADER CAME TO VISIT IT;
JERUSALEM IS MENTIONED OVER 700 TIMES IN THE BIBLE, BUT NOT ONCE IS IT MENTIONED IN THE QUR’AN;
KING DAVID FOUNDED JERUSALEM; MOHAMMED NEVER SET FOOT IN IT;

SOME 630,000 ARABS LEFT ISRAEL IN 1948, WHILE CLOSE TO A MILLION JEWS WERE FORCED TO LEAVE THE MUSLIM COUNTRIES;
IN SPITE OF THE VAST TERRITORIES AT THEIR DISPOSAL, ARAB REFUGEES
WERE DELIBERATELY PREVENTED FROM ASSIMILATING INTO THEIR HOST COUNTRIES.
OF 100 MILLION REFUGEES FOLLOWING WORLD WAR 2, THEY ARE THE ONLY GROUP
TO HAVE NEVER INTEGRATED WITH THEIR CORELIGIONISTS. MOST OF THE JEWISH
REFUGEES FROM EUROPE AND ARAB LANDS WERE SETTLED IN ISRAEL, A COUNTRY NO LARGER THAN NEW JERSEY
THERE ARE 22 MUSLIM COUNTRIES, NOT COUNTING PALESTINE. THERE IS ONLY
ONE JEWISH STATE. ARABS STARTED ALL FIVE WARS AGAINST ISRAEL, AND LOST
EVERY ONE OF THEM;
FATAH AND HAMAS CONSTITUTIONS STILL CALL FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF
ISRAEL. ISRAEL CEDED MOST OF THE WEST BANK AND ALL OF GAZA TO THE
PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY, AND EVEN PROVIDED IT WITH ARMS;

97 WERE AGAINST ISRAEL; OUT OF 690 GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTIONS, 429

THE OLD CITY OF JERUSALEM. IT REMAINED SILENT WHILE JORDAN
SYSTEMATICALLY DESECRATED THE ANCIENT JEWISH CEMETERY ON THE MOUNT OF
OLIVES, AND IT REMAINED SILENT WHEN JORDAN ENFORCED APARTHEID LAWS
PREVENTING JEWS FROM ACCESSING THE TEMPLE MOUNT AND WESTERN WALL.

THESE ARE TRYING TIMES. WE MUST ASK OURSELVES WHAT WE SHOULD BE DOING,
AND WHAT WE WILL TELL OUR GRANDCHILDREN ABOUT OUR ACTIONS DURING THIS
CRISIS, WHEN WE HAD THE CHANCE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

START NOW! SEND THIS MESSAGE TO 20 FRIENDS, AND ASK EACH OF THEM TO SEND
IT TO 20 MORE.

JEWISH OR NOT, IT DOES NOT MATTER. EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THE FACTS.

TRUTH AND PEACE ARE VALUES COMMON TO ALL OF US.
