The question by many Jews today is why is anti antisemitism so rampant and where is the G-d of Israel to intercede on the Jews behalf? The Jew today has hardened their hearts against the G-d of Abraham , Isaac, Jacob and Moses and possess a resentment of heart and a bitterness against Almighty G-d for their horrific treatment over the centuries since 586 B.C. Whenever one talks to a son of Jacob today it almost seems that they feel that Almighty God is Himself is an anti - Semite! Oh my dear Jewish friends, nothing could EVER be farther from the truth. It is you who have became an anti - Godite and have reaped upon you the doings of your own rebellious hearts and minds (Lev. 26, Deut. 28-32). As we shall see, it is the Jew today who has forsaken their covenants and the Torah of Almighty G-d and not the G-d of Abraham and David.
My dear friends G-d greatly cares about the Jew. Israel is the apple of His eye, but tragically G-d is not the Apple of Israel's eye (as a whole and in spirit and in truth - Psalm 119), at least not yet (Zech. 12:8-12, 13:1-2)! For Michael and his audience, to fully comprehend and understand the why will take faith in Almighty G-d and objective biblical insight. If you REJECT this ETERNAL and DIVINE perspective for a subjective earthly one you will go insane with all the injustice that dominates our world. You will loose your mind trying to come to grips with the reality of our day. Tragically, Israels worst days are yet to come (Jer. 30:4-8, Zech. 13:8-9, 14:1-4, Rev. 12:6-17). If you (as our visitor) truly have the courage you will finish reading the rest of this post and receive the witness of Almighty God's Word as TRUTH and REALITY as that it is. To hear and receive truth takes great courage. We must abandon our own perceptions for Almighty's ETERNAL one. This world and its highly organized complex is much bigger or greater than any of us could EVER imagine (Eph. 6:12). May you as our reader today access Almighty God's ETERNAL perspective and use it. For in doing so it will SET YOU FREE from the shackles of the temporal confines of this present evil world and change you FOREVER. God Speed my friend as you debark on your journey in to TRUTH and REALITY! The Day of the Lord is truly at hand!
Why is it that Israel has constantly been under the thumb of the godless nations of this world since the Babylonian captivity some 2600 years ago? The Jewish people have for centuries asked this age old question with absolutely no answers to be found. This dilemma has scared Jews for centuries and has caused them to harden their hearts against their King and Creator (Isa.13:9, 2 Chron. 7:12-22, Mal. 1-4). How could Almighty G-d disown and forsake His people, His glorious and wonderful promises and His ETERNAL covenant with the "Apple of His eye"? The answer is very simple and comforting to the son of Abraham who will shama (hear)... and have ears to hear. HE HASN'T. He NEVER HAS. Almighty G-d NEVER has abandon Israel, but tragically the nation of Israel has forsaken Him, the Fountain of living waters as history can attest (Lev. 26, 2 Chron. 7:12-22, Jer. 2:11-13, 4:8).
Israel throughout their biblical recorded history has served other gods (false and vain ideologies) and have violated Almighty G-d's covenants and ETERNAL promises throughout the centuries and have reaped on themselves the horrific consequences of a G-dless existence which has been void of divine reality and truth (Lev. 26, Deut. 28-32, 2 Chron. 7:12-22, Jer. 2, Rom. 1:18-32). It has been the rebellious and clueless sons of Abraham who know NOT their ETERNAL covenant with Almighty G-d (The G-d of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, Elijah and Ezra) and have forsaken and violated it thus reaping the centuries of a godless self willed life. No matter how good, sincere and noble their intentions may have been throughout the centuries and to the present the Jew has still rejected their divine calling and are at present still out of the Will of the God of Israel (Lev. 26). These are not the mere words and harsh opinions of a bunch of goyim ignorant fishermen, but the Word of Almighty G-d! The Pentitude, Psalms and Prophets all abundantly at est to the stiffnecks and hard heartedness of the children of Israel when it comes to obeying His covenants (Lev. 26, Deut. 28-32, 2 Chron 7:12-22, Jer. 2 ). The whole Old Testament (Tanahk) is a sobering warning and frightening rebuke to the seed of Abraham who have gone astray (2 Chron 7:12-22). Time and time again in the Torah, Psalms and Prophets, Almighty G-d rebukes the nation of Israel for their hard hearts, stiffnecks, backsliding and their gross transgressions against the Law of Moses and Almighty God Himself (Ex. 32:9, 33:5, Lev. 26:41, 2 Kings 17:14, Isa. 48:4, 63:10, Jer. 2:19). Oh how horrifically sobering! My dear Jewish friend, DO NOT be offended at our words, but BE OBJECTIVE and see for yourselves what the Word of the Lord has to say, for it is in Almighty G-d's PERFECT love that we challenge you all with all our being to see for yourself what the Torah, Psalms and Prophets have to say about the Messiah of Israel and his glorious plan for you.
Tragically the nation of Israel and the Jewish people have been OUT of Almighty G-ds will and program since their Messiah was CUT OFF by the Israeli leadership and nation of that day (Isa. 53, Dan. 9:26). Tragically there was only a very small remnant of Jews at that time who received their Messiah and placed their trust in Him (Psalm 110:1, Isa. 9:6-7, 40:1-8, 53, Mic. 5:2, Mal. 3). It was after the Messiah's resurrection from the grave (Psalm 16:10, 110:1, Isa. 52:13-15, 53:10) that Almighty G-d took the remnant of believing Israel who had received their Messiah and raised up the "called out assembly" of the Messiah to be used of G-d to reach the nations of the world with the message of ETERNAL salvation. It is during this time that Almighty G-d has put aside unbelieving Israel for the time being while G-d works out His redemptive program through the "called out assembly (i.e., the Church) among the Gentiles and scattered believing Jews. It was finally in 70 A.D. that the Roman general Titus destroyed the temple and Jerusalem and scattered the surviving sons of Abraham unto the four corners of the world and that is where they are today (Lev. 26, 2 Chron. 7:12-22, Ezek 39:23-28).
My dear Jewish friend, may I ask you this very simple question in all sincerity? How could the children of Abraham be removed OUT of their land if they as a people were obedient to Almighty G-d and His covenants (Lev. 26, 2 Chron. 7:12-22)? They NEVER could! The diaspora has been a witness against the people of Israel and testifies to the fact that they have a problem with their relationship to Almighty G-d. It is true since 1948 Israel has been back in the land, but it is only because Almighty G-d is preparing (Ezek. 37:1-8) them for the return of Moses and Elijah (Mal. 4), the time of Jacob's trouble (Jer. 30:7, Zech. 12-14), national repentance (Zech. 12:9-14, 13:1-2), Messiah's second coming (Ps.110:1, Isa. 9:6-7, 63:1-4, Zech. 14:1-4) and establishment of the Kingdom age from Jerusalem (Isa. 9:7, 11:1-10, Dan. 2:44-45, 7:13-14, Mic. 4:1-4, Ezek. 43:1-7, Zech. 14:16-21).
Since 70 A.D. the godless gentiles of the world have been absolutely brutal to the "Apple of Almighty G-d's eye" climaxing with the Jewish Holocaust under the murderous Nazis. Almighty G-d's chastising hand has been clearly seen but Israel has refused to return to their KING and have misread Almighty G-d's chastisement (Lev. 26, Deut. 28-40). Tragically since 70 A. D Almighty G-d has given them over to their own desires, works and thinking and they have reaped the horrific whirlwind ever since (Lev. 26, 2 Chron. 7:12-22). One of the scattered children of Israel's most fearsome aggressors and adversaries has not been Islam, but apostate Christendom, who they themselves are godless and have rejected the sound biblical teachings of the Jewish Tanakh (Bible) and those of her Messiah. They have exceeded all of the wickedness of Israel's enemies and in the end Almighty G-d has and will judge them for their dealings with the apple of His eye (Gen 12:3). Even when out of the will of Almighty G-d, G-d's protective eye is on His people and has preserved her from total annihilation (Isa. 54:10, Jer.30:11 46:28, Ezek. 11:16, Amos 9:8). But of a truth, the scattered Jew has NO better friend IN the world then those who are the TRUE believers in Israel's Messiah and Lord, Yeshua Ha'Mashiach and they know it (Gen. 12:3, Psalm 110:1, Isa. 53).
Sadly today the sons of Abraham are OBLIVIOUS to the promises made to Abraham and the world by Almighty G-d about the very One who would come in his line, his SEED (single)? G-d's promise to the whole world is found in Abraham , "In your SEED shall ALL nations be blessed" (Gen. 18:18, 22:18, 26:4, 28:14, Gal. 3:6-14)! That SEED is referring to the Lamb of G-d that TAKES AWAY the transgressions of the ENTIRE world (Isa. 9:6-7, 53, Dan. 9:26, Micah 5:2, Gal. 3:6-14). The Messiah of Israel IS Almighty G-d the Son (Ps. 110:1, Prov. 30:4, Isa. 9:6-7, Mic. 5:2), the Lamb of G-d (Isa. 53, Dan. 9:26) and the RIGHTEOUS Branch of Almighty G-d (Jer. 23:5; 33:1)!
Sadly the children of Abraham have been unbelievers and rejecters of Almighty G-d, the Torah and Pentitude and the RIGHTEOUS absolutes of Almighty G-d since day one as the Torah FULLY testifies. Their oppressed past has been a perpetual witness continual against them throughout the last 26 centuries (Ex. 32:9, Lev. 26, Deut. 9:6,-7; 31:27, Ezek. 39:22-27). In a lot of ways the nation of Israel has been no different then the gentile nations born of Babel (Gen. 11) and as a matter of fact according to Almighty G-d's Word, they at times have been far worse (2 Chron. 33:9, Ezek. 5:7). If ONLY the sons of Abraham fully comprehended Israels HOLY calling as Scripture dictates and had not put aside His Holy Word for vain traditions, fables and vain mitzvahs that can NEVER deliver a man's soul from his violations of the HOLY and PERFECT Law of Almighty G-d. Tragically - as the Holy Scripture teaches there has ONLY ever been but a remnant in Israel that has truly EVER possessed a heart for the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Moses and David (Isa 1:9, 10:21-22, Jeremiah 23:3, 42:2, Micah 2:12, 7:18). Well did Isaiah say.
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed? (Isaiah 53:1)
And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed." (Isa. 6:9-10)
"For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the destruction decreed shall overflow with righteousness." (Isa. 10:22)
My beloved Jewish friend, may I ask you these very personal questions?
Where is YOUR atonement for your transgressions against the Holy Law of Almighty G-d (Lev. 17:11, Isa. 53)?
Where is YOUR sin-offering for your cleansing of transgressions against the Holy Law of Almighty G-d (Lev. 4, 17:11, Isa. 53)?
Where is YOUR lamb to offer in your place for your transgressions (Lev. 17:11, Isa. 53)?
Where is YOUR propitiation that FULLY satisfies the PERFECT RIGHTEOUS DEMANDS OF THE HOLY LAW OF G-D (Isa. 53:10-11, Zech. 12:8-14)?
Have you PERFECTLY kept the LAW of Moses with your whole HEART, SOUL and MIND (Deut. 6:5)?
My dear Jewish friend, ALL (Jew and Gentile) crucially need Almighty God's FULL SATISFYING propitiation which all the lambs of sacrifice pointed to but could NEVER take away (Ps. 40:6-8, Isa. 40:16). ETERNAL redemption is ONLY found in the PERFECT life, death and resurrection of the Messiah of Israel, the Branch of RIGHTEOUSNESS (Psalm 110:1, Isa 9:6-7, 53, Jer. 33:15, Zech. 12:10). The Messiah was born of the seed of woman and of the line of Abraham (Gen. 3:15, 12:3, Isa. 7:14, 9:6-7, Micah 5:2). He laid down His life and shed His Blood for the transgressions of the world and was rejected by both Jew and Gentile (Isa. 53:1-10, Dan. 9:26, Zech. 12:10). He was buried (Ps. 16:10, Isa 53:9) and triumphantly AROSE from the dead for our justification and now sits at the RIGHT HAND of ALMIGHTY G-D in Heaven (Psalm 16:10,110:1, Isa. 52:13, 53:12, 9:6-7). He will come again to redeem Israel and will establish His Kingdom from Israel (Psalm 110:1, Isa. 11:1-10, Dan. 2:44-45, 7:13-14, Micah 4:1-4, Zech. 12-14).
It is our sincere desire that you would come to know the Messiah of Israel and let the Word of the Lord open your eyes and heart to the realities of time and ETERNITY. Tragically Israel's WORST DAYS are not very far away and tragically they will NOT listen to Moses and Elijah who Almighty God will send to them in that Day (Mal. 4, Rev. 11:3-12). After a great and decisive victory over Israel's border enemies Israel will achieve a temporal peace and will become very prosperous (Ezek. 38:8). It will be at this time that Israel will enter into a treaty with a man on behalf of their defeated enemies for seven years (Dan. 9:27, Rev. 6:1-2). In the middle of that treaty - as the world is undergoing great war, pestilence and famine (Rev. 6-9) - this man will break His covenant with Israel (Dan. 7, Rev. 11:7, 13) and he will lead the world to FULLY seek to eradicate Israel from being a people (Deut. 4:30, Dan. 12, Jer. 30:4-7, Zech. 13:8-9, Rev. 12). It will take this GREAT TRIBULATION AND THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON that will case Israel to FINALLY cry out to the LORD as He returns from Heaven's glory and they will greatly repent and be mightily converted (Isa. 63:1-4, 66:7-9, Zech. 12:1-4, :8-14, 13:1-2,6, 14:1-4, Rev. 1:7, 19:11-21).
We are not far away from these days. My dear Jewish friend may you have an ear to hear today The Gospel call of the Messiah of Israel. May you by faith ask Almighty G-d to reveal to you through His Holy Word the Messiah of Israel and may you receive Him as your Lord and Savior (Ps.110:1, Isa. 53).
Beloved, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
well....by that general line of argument....
the currently-in-acceleration Decline and Fall of USA
may also be explicable
(alas!)
Sorry, Jews have their own covenant with G-d, and Gentiles have theirs. My distant cousin, the carpenter’s son, is not my savior. Only G-d Himself can be that.
OBADIAH 1:12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress...15: For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.
Read Isaiah 41-43 and then explain what verse 43:10 means. Also, what version of the First Covenant do you use in English? Just wondering. Is it really close to the original Hebrew, because I would love to read it. One of my favorite books is Leviticus.
I know, I’ve been called weird.
How totally sad that you completely miss the point. When Anointed One, named Jesus and titled Son, pronounced "τετελεσται"--"Finished!"--the Mosaic Covenant was Completed and God's Righteous Demands satisfied once and for all time, with the New Covenant commencing, The old Jewish religion died, never to live again.
“Sorry, Jews have their own covenant with G-d, and Gentiles have theirs. My distant cousin, the carpenters son, is not my savior. Only G-d Himself can be that.”
Jesus instructed the apostle John to write the following:
When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. And He placed His right hand on me, saying, “Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last, and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades. Revelation 1:17-18
The same Christ who placed His hand on Daniel (Daniel 10) is the same Christ who comforts John in Revelation 1. The same Christ who declares Himself the “first and the last” is the same God who declared Himself the first and the last three different times in Isaiah:
“Who has performed and accomplished it, Calling forth the generations from the beginning? ‘I, the LORD, am the first, and with the last. I am He.’” Isaiah 41:4
“Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: ‘I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me. Isaiah 44:6
“Listen to Me, O Jacob, even Israel whom I called; I am He, I am the first, I am also the last. Isaiah 48:12
Many of the Jews who lived to see the coming of Christ believed in Him, this son of a carpenter that Jews reject today.
The covenant of Israel you seek was fulfilled in the person and work of Yeshua HaMashiach, the Lord and Redeemer of Israel. Israel simply needs to accept Him.
Many Jews reject Him because the christian gospel today isn’t the gospel Paul preached..
The worship of Christendom today is based on Rome’s gospel..
Hence December 25 instead of His real birthday
Good Friday instead of Passover
Easter Sunday instead of First Fruits.
I never realized I was a slave to Rome’s gospel account until He showed me the difference..
And there is a difference.
And tough to square ‘The Word became flesh and dwelt among us ‘ when all the ‘worship’ and holy days have zero to do with that Word and everything to do with Rome’s Greco roman Latin traditions..
It isn’t an accident Jews celebrate first fruits on a Sunday every year and not on the third day from Passover as Torah explains and the New Testament confirms.
They do not see the day in between as their weekly Sabbath but that is exactly what our Heavenly Father’s calendar shows in scripture..
Jews need to reject Rome and its calendar named for a pope before they can see their Messiah and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us..
They rejecting Jesus is not a bad thing if all they see is Christian’s worship from Rome’s gospel.
I met Him as Jesus but He didn’t let me stay there.. and it took me rejecting Rome and her gospel and learn His Truth to see there is a real difference..
But today is His 2nd day of the week to me - not Thor’s day like the world calls it..
I am not part of the rule but an exception.. and I hate that I played a part in hiding Truth from my Jewish or Muslim or Christian or secular humanists or atheist neighbors.
Those new moons, Sabbaths and Feasts Israel was taught are not just fulfilled spiritually, but literally, by the Word that became flesh ad dwlt among us.
From His birth, to His circumcision on the 8th day, His dedication in the temple after His mother’s 40 day purification, His baptism, His death, burial and resurrection..all on either New Moons, Sabbaths or Feasts Israel was taught.
The greatest story ever told... and maybe the greatest counterfeit ever created at the same time..
(Imagine a tv commercial)
“Are you a Freeper with a Jewish mother? Well then you’ll love this!”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZsq0GzAN5E
At least spell out G-d’s name like a Christian... don’t follow [”silly” cv’s] Jewish rabbinical traditions....
“And tough to square The Word became flesh and dwelt among us when all the worship and holy days have zero to do with that Word and everything to do with Romes Greco roman Latin traditions..”
And yet many Jews openly embraced Hellenism in the 2nd Century BC, even acquiescing to the edicts of Antiochus III and his son, Antiochus IV Epiphanes. The Maccabbean Revolt drove the Hellenists out, but the resulting strident legalism paved the way for a priesthood that couldn’t or wouldn’t recognize Messiah when He did appear, in part, because of the way in which Jesus spoke of and treated Gentiles.
But the larger problem is that you have Christians today who believe, as our Jewish friends do - that God has a separate plan of salvation for the Jew. Nothing could be further from the truth.
“Jews need to reject Rome and its calendar named for a pope before they can see their Messiah and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.”
___________________________________________________________
I disagree with this statement. Many Jews have come to Messiah despite the “Church of Rome.” Paul said the gospel of Christ itself is a stumbling block to Jews (and foolishness to Gentiles, 1Cor 1:23).
There is any number of excuses by which men can rationalize their disbelief but, in the end, there remains only one way to God, and that is through Christ - God incarnate.
I was taught that every Jewish holiday has prophetic meaning. The one holiday that will be celebrated by the whole world when Messiah rules will be the Feast of Tabernacles. What will be the significance of that observance and will it have a different meaning?
I think Easter should only be celebrated in accordance to Passover and that we should be celebrating Pentecost since Paul mentions getting to Jerusalem to do so. Christmas? It has been used for such material gain.
