Israel...at War
Hal Lindsey ^ | 10/09/23 | Hal Lindsey

Posted on 10/10/2023 10:42:57 AM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

The great earthquake of the Ezekiel 38 war has NOT begun. But we are in the midst of a major foreshock. In the last few hours, Hamas fired thousands of missiles from Gaza into Israel. They targeted Israeli civilians. Hamas soldiers broke through checkpoints and bulldozed parts of the border fence. Their army attacked Israeli neighborhoods in border towns, randomly killing and randomly taking hostages.

But this did not originate with Hamas. A peace agreement with Saudi Arabia seemed close just a few days ago. But the Saudis cannot make peace with Israel now because they cannot seem to be taking the side of Jews against Muslims. The reason Saudi Arabia and other Arab nations have been willing to cooperate with Israel is their common enemy, Iran. So, who benefits with peace set aside? Iran.

This attack was planned, funded, and equipped by Iran. That’s why I consider it a precursor to the war prophesied in Ezekiel 38 and 39 — a war led by Russia and Iran. And make no mistake, Russia is tied to this. Just last month, Iran’s Minister of Defense said, “Russia and Iran have significantly broadened the range of their cooperation over the past few years. In particular, I would like to note regional affairs, such as the joint war on terrorism and extremism.” How is that for ironic? These are the words of the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.

If you find it hard to believe that the orders came from Iran, consider this. A few days before the attack began, a billboard went up in Iran’s capital city of Tehran. The billboard says, “The liberation operation ‘Storming of Al-Aqsa’ has started.” Al-Aqsa refers to the oldest mosque on the Temple Mount. It irks Iran’s mullahs that Jews have ultimate jurisdiction over what Islam claims to be its third holiest site.

Shortly after the attack, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard posted on X (previously Twitter), “We Told You We Would Come for You.” That’s a terrorist organization taking credit for its work! And this is definitely a war of terror. These people are shooting schoolgirls on the streets. They are kidnapping whole families including children and the elderly. Their missiles target civilian neighborhoods and other civilian locations with no connection to the military. These are terrorists fighting a war of terror!

Israel has been standing as a buffer between us and radical Islamic terrorists for decades. If Israel doesn’t stop them now, Iranian terror will continue to spread in the Middle East and around the world. Never forget that Iran considers Israel the little Satan and the United States the big Satan. We are a target, too. And, ironically, we are helping to fund these attacks on our friends and eventually on ourselves. We keep releasing money to Iran and Iran keeps using it in its campaign of terror around the world.

After the attack began, the US State Department’s Office for Palestinian Affairs put up a post on Twitter urging all sides to “refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks.” After receiving heavy criticism, they removed the tweet. But their knee-jerk reaction was that Israel should allow their citizens to be pummeled without responding. That shows the kind of thinking in the State Department’s entrenched bureaucracy, also known as the deep state.

The Palestinian attack has been especially egregious, easily qualifying as a series of horrible war crimes. How will the world respond?

And how will you respond? Christians should remember that this did not catch God by surprise. His plan continues. He’s taking care of you, and His offer of salvation remains open to everyone.

As those of the flesh will always persecute those of the Spirit, so Ishmael (Muslims) the son of the bondwoman will always persecute Isaac (Israel) the son of the freewoman (Gal. 4:22-31).

A “peace treaty” is illusory. The Muslims will not rest until Israel disappears.

Come Christmas, the world will be a much different place if Israel does what they say they are going to do.

“Come Christmas, the world will be a much different place if Israel does what they say they are going to do.”

And if Israel does nothing?
Likely there will be NO Israel. And probably no Taiwain.

If Iran sees Israel as weak. They will Send Hezbollah in from Libya and Syria. And possibly pull IRG and people from Yemen to kill off Israel. Maybe Turkey and others will send troops.

If the US/ Euros do NOT back Israel. China KNOWS that the US will NOT protect Taiwan. They will move.

Interesting. Have you ever listened to Chuck Missler?

Well I saw Missler in a session from awhile back about Ez. 38-19. It was very interesting. He commented that of all the nations named in that passage, none of them are Israel’s next door/close neighbors and he wondered why that would be. (Missler has well-documented these names.)

https://youtu.be/tDaM5iAK8C8?si=j5nZa0UpJ5yBlQof

Could it be that Israel’s next door and close by neighbors like the Palestinians and Hamas, will be gone, possibly wiped out by Israel, before we are raptured and Ez. 38-39 launches?

Wow. It makes sense to me. Your comment triggered me to think about that. We are living in dynamic times.

[T]he wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, says my God, to the wicked.
Isa. 57:20-21.

Except to point out that even the Bible condemns the Russo-Iranian axis that you are so fond of defending.

As an enemy of God, the poster JonPreston has nothing of importance to offer.

More on Psalm 83...

Psalm 83 may very well prophesy what is about to happen in the context of today’s events.

Verses 1-2 - A prayer for God’s vengeance upon Israel’s next-door, close-by enemies.

Verses 2-8 - A recount of the aggressiveness and butchery of Israel’s next door, close-by enemies.

Verses 9-17 - A prayer that God would cause them to perish.

Verse 18 - An acknowledgment that God’s judgements glorify him.

I think we may be living in the time when God’s answers this prayer of David in verses 9-17, allowing these next-door, close-by neighbors to do what Hamas has done and Israel retaliates and wipes them out. Amazing. Let’s see.

Remember, none of these next door, close by neighbors are mentioned in the multi-nation attack in Ez. 38-39 which will come later. Could it be that prior to Ez. 38-39, these malicious next-door, close-by neighbors have done to Israel what Hamas has done and Israel has wiped them out in answer to Psalm 83 (mentioned by Chuck Missler in a session from awhile back https://youtu.be/tDaM5iAK8C8?si=j5nZa0UpJ5yBlQof )?

Stay tuned.

I foresee the same. As we've discussed in other threads, Psalm 83 really looks like it's on near horizon. Now, more than ever, it is important for the believer to be ready for our Lord will come soon.

Maranatha, God bless brother!

My feelings as well.

I will go up to the land of unwalled villages

all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates...

Obviously, Israels vilest enemies must be crushed before this can take effect. This effort against Hamas, and any others, could be the start of this process.

Islam will only stop, or rather be stopped, when God obliterates them.

We may actually be on the cusp of a Psalm 83 fulfillment.
Stay tuned indeed!

The day after you enlist in the Russian Armed Forces, I already told you that.
