The Weopons of Our Warfare

            Mostly obscure to the vast majority of those who would claim to be Christian there is a raging spiritual war progressing and it is  ever escalating. For the most part the church, at least in America is in a state of passive apostasy. This may not be the case in other places such as the Middle East where Christian’s have undergone brutal persecution and martyrdom on a vast scale.  But in America the attitude is generally that the American wars of aggression against Moslem states is a good thing because they see them as the enemies of Israel.  The mindset is that this counterfeit nation of Isreal represents God’s ‘chosen people’ and they are destined to prevail and be blessed even unto a millennial rein over the entire earth. This issue alone makes them oblivious to the real agenda of the enemy as relates to Israel and its eventual emergence in influence and power all of which is an orchestration of Lucifer’s plan for a New World Order to be dominated by the Antichrist.  Yes, there is an active and ongoing agaenda for a "Greater Israel".  But this deception is so widespread among evangelicals and other Christians that it brings them to blindly endorse the death and destruction as an omen of biblical prophecy in the process of fulfillment. It is in fact a central element of the ongoing spiritual war but alas  it is progressing to an end which is entirely opposite of their misguided perceptions. This apostasy leads to a deception which nullifies their involvement in any effective resistance to the enemy’s agenda.

            Contributing to the delusion are false theological conclusions held widely among Christians including the Calvinist precepts of ‘unconditional election’, ‘irresistible grace’ and ‘perseverance of the saints’. These concepts are unsupported by the truths of Scripture and they inevitably lead individuals into a state of passivity and blindness neutralizing and nullifying their effectiveness in the spiritual conflict. After all if the Jewish nation is predestined to rule over the world for a millennia as the ‘chosen people’ then America must be a righteous nation in their support of Israel and certainly these Zionist Christians are justified in supporting the ongoing wars of aggression in the Middle East. Unfortunately a true understanding of the teaching of Scripture supports the reality that Israel of old due to their breach of covenant and insistence on the crucifixion of Christ resulted in the abrogation of that covenant and judgement at the hand of a righteous God. The reasoning is that if Israel as an ethnic, political, and religious entity is to prevail on the earth then the church must necessarily be ‘raptured’ in order for God to return  to his dealings with them to marvelously bring to them collective salvation. This preposterous outcome is guaranteed in their minds and places them in the enemy’s camp in support of lies that are totally contradicted by the scriptures. They in effect have taken up the cause of the evil one in support of this false icon, i.e. the nation state of Israel.

            These conditions that exist in modern day Christendom in America deny the reality of the ongoing warfare that they are effectively and willingly ignorant of. “The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” (II Cor. 10:4-5) The foregoing doctrines and theological concepts certainly represent strongholds against the truth of the Word of God. The craft and deceit of the enemy is to utilize these lies and deceptions to capture the hearts and minds of people and to place them in denial concerning the accurate proclamations of Scripture.

       The minds of people become a stronghold which must be spiritually renewed or 

we remain a captive of our deceptions.(See Rom. 12:1-2).    Our natural thought

processes of reasoning reinforce our deception and block the truth from being able to

be comprehended. Thus, we are admonished to:

            “Put on the whole amour of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil for we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand in the evil day, and hving done all to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness: and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace: and above all taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all of the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.”(Eph. 6:10-13-17).

          Until you have embraced sound doctrine you will inevitably project it forward

into complete distortions in the interpretation of the prophetic scriptures.

         I Recommend all three of my books for accurate interpretations both in doctrine

and prophecy.  These Prophets and the Revelation,  The Israel Deception, and

Christian Zionism and the Scofield reference Bible.

Middle East War Agenda: A "Greater Israel"

             For more than a quarter of a century we have been witnessing perpetual warfare in the Middle East. These wars have always involved the United States either directly or indirectly. They have resulted in the death of millions including thousands of American military people not to mention the further multiplied thousands who have returned disabled missing arms, legs, etc. Does the average American Christian have an explanation for the cause and effect of this massive death and  destruction? Is it believed that this costly death and dismemberment serves some purpose in the national security interest of the United States? Does Syria, Iraq or Afghanistan pose any kind of a military threat to America? It has been designated as the ‘war on terrorism’, but who in fact are the terrorists ,and  reasonably why would we expect anything but terror in response against us if not having been provoked by aggression. Can there be found a reasonable justification for all of these wars of aggressions against foreign sovereign nations?

            I have not posted a blog for more than two weeks and if you follow my posts you know that the last several posts have covered the revelations of Daniel the Old Testament prophet. Daniel tells us a significant part of the story concerning the answers to all of the above posed questions. He takes us prophetically through history and the significant kingdoms which have ruled in the Middle East and then focuses on one final kingdom which is to emerge at the end of days. I have been pondering Daniel’s prophetic words in light of the current developments in the region we know as the Middle East. The reader might consider pondering those writings once again as they are so significant for the days and times that we live in presently and those that lie immediately ahead. There is a chronology of eschatological events brought forward in the last two chapters of Daniel. These writings take us up to and through the very end of days as determined. They include the abomination of desolation, the emerging of the Antichrist, the martyrdom and persecution of the saints, the great tribulation, and his conquest of this very region at the end of chapter eleven. Most of the people who profess the Christian faith fail to really grasp not only the nearness but the significance of all of these events.

            America’s Christians are mostly oblivious to the effects of these cataclysmic events for they live in the delusion that when the end comes they will be marvelously raptured away from any danger or harm regardless of their spiritualcondition. Also, a very large number of them believe that the nation state of Israel has a great and wonderful future with the prospect of national salvation and a kingdom reign that will last for a thousand years. Unfortunately these hopes are mere delusions fabricated from a false paradigm of theology which is not supported in Scripture.

            So looking at recent headline news we learn that there was a poison gas attack in Syria  alleged to be perpetrated by its leader Bashar Al Assad. He was alleged to be responsible for the release of chlorine gas killing many of his own citizens and injuring hundreds more.  This defies common sense for more than one reason. First, he has been winning the civil war in Syria and it would be foolish to instigate such an event because of the known reactions of the world at large including America.  Next, contrary to the propaganda media Assad is neither a tyrant nor a terrorist. He is generally loved by the people of Syria and is very kindly disposed towards Christians of whom there are many in Syria. So this event was a ‘false flag’ perpetrated by others seeking to put the blame on Assad and hold him accountable. When you really understand what the issues are you could likely name the CIA, the Jewish Mossad, or other terrorists or rebels in the area. That cannot be determined because it will be covered up, but it was not Assad or his government. Many people and sources with more direct information than me have confirmed the same.

            The American response given by the President was to launch over one hundred missiles into Syria to punish them for war crimes likely instigated by other controlled people or entities.  This act of aggression provides an alleged justification for the action taken, but falls short of reason when you really understand the position of the American government in relation to Israel. And  also when you understand that all of these Middle East conflicts, wars, etc. are all about Israel. The uninformed public and specifically evangelical Christians are completely deceived concerning the agenda for a counterfeit Israel as we move progressively forward to end time biblical prophecy. The propaganda and deceptions perpetrated by the controlled media and the very powerful Zionist agenda escapes the understanding and perceptions of almost everyone. The emergence of the nation state of Israel is a work in progress and will ultimately be established as  a world imperial power perpetrated by the enemy of all mankind-Lucifer. He seeks to be worshipped as the god of this world and he has used the lies and deceptions concerning the Jews as being the so-called ‘chosen people’ to effectively capture America, its presidents and politicians, its economic system, its educational system, the media and to some extent the internet to foist a vast deception on America and its people. Christian Zionism rules in the evangelical world and they believe wholeheartedly that all of America’s support and promotion of Israel is a biblical mandate. When in fact the American government is totally controlled by the Zionist agenda for a New World Order ruled from a much “Greater Israel”.  You can find all of the details of how this has transpired over time as well as the counterfeit Jews who are responsible for the ultimate outcome in my book The Israel Deception. Reviewing my eight recent blogs on Daniel’s prophesies will also be very helpful. Jesus warned us ‘Be not deceived.’!!
