Former Republican Congresswoman Michele Bachmann stated that President Barack Obamas handling of the Iranian nuclear deal is a symbol of the coming of the end of times and the imminent return of Jesus Christ, during a recent radio interview.
Bachmann explained that if Obama and the United States turn their back on Israel, this would bring severe curses upon the United States, similar to those seen in the end of days.
But, Bachmann is not afraid of the end of days, rather she says that these are the most exciting days in history because nothing is more important than the return of Jesus Christ.
We need to be so on fire right now about the things of Christ and the things of God, that needs to occupy our time and our thoughts virtually from morning to night because we have very little time in my opinion left before the second return of Christ. Thats good news! the former congresswoman said. The world is embracing degeneracy, but what that also tells us as we look at what the world is doing that theyre going according to Gods time clock. Pastors, preach it from the pulpit!
If we actually turn our back on Israel as we have seen Barack Obama do today, if that happens then I think we will see a scale and a level of push back in the United States, negative consequences, Bachmann told Understanding the Times radio host Jan Markell on Sunday. I dont know what they are, but I believe that the Bible is true. And believe what the Bible says is that our nation and the people of our nation will reap a whirlwind, and we could see economic disasters, natural disasters...

A brief outline of the false doctrine ... Replacement Theology ...

What is replacement theology?
by Matt Slick
Replacement theology is the teaching that the Christian church has replaced national Israel regarding the plan, purpose, and promises of God.
Therefore, many of the promises that God made to Israel must be spiritualized. For example, when it speaks of Israel being restored to the land, this really means that the Christian church will be blessed. Also, covenants made with Israel are fulfilled in the Christian church so, for example,
1. The Jewish people are no longer God’s chosen people. Instead, the Christian church now makes up God’s chosen people.
2. In the New Testament after Pentecost, the term “Israel” refers to the church.
3. The Mosaic covenant (Exodus 20) is replaced by the new covenant (Luke 22:20).
4. Actual circumcision is replaced by a circumcision of the heart (Rom. 2:29).
So, in replacement theology the church has replaced Israel as the primary means by which the world is blessed by God’s work. Though it is true that the church does replace Israel in some areas such as properly representing God on earth, acknowledging the promise of the Messiah, etc., it is not biblical to say that God is completely done with Israel and that the Christian church is its complete replacement.
“For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery, lest you be wise in your own estimation, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in; 26 and thus all Israel will be saved; just as it is written, ‘The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will remove ungodliness from Jacob,’ (Rom. 11:25-26).
Some replacement theologians would teach that any mention of “Israel” after Acts chapter 2 (Pentecost) would be referring to the Christian church, but the above Scripture cannot be used to support that idea. In fact, it plainly contradicts it. Obviously, God is not done with Israel. The text tells us that God has hardened Israel but it also tells that disheartening is temporary.
Replacement theology is also known as supersessionism which means that the Christian church has superceded Israel in God’s plan.

Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
And NO, the "church" has not superseded Israel.
You’ll want to listen to this from last Saturday, and also catch the one for this Saturday coming up ... :-) ...

Part 1: Lawlessness and Global Transformation: How it Sets the Stage
Published on 11 April 2015
Jan talks to Michele Bachmann for the hour in part one of a two-part series dealing with end-times, government, America, Israel, the Mideast, and more. How is the present lawlessness setting the stage for the final scenario? They discuss the Iranian nuke deal, Islamists in the current administration, and much more and suggest all that is happening is setting the stage for all that the Bible outlines. Part two is next weekend.
Whether it’s Obama ... or not ... the USA will be turning against Israel!
You got that right!
Yep!
See Post #63 ...
She probably reads the Bible ... :-) ...
Non-Christian Rabbis who obviously don’t “believe in replacement theology” are also divided over the status of the place... some view it as premature. Watch what accusations you sling around, they may just make you look like grabbing for straws.
God isn’t some “gravel blind” fumbler — God knows who’s cheering for the present DC cabal and who’s fighting or at least mourning it.
Not the way things are going with Israel ... :-) ...
.
Hosea does not speak about Jews, but about the dispersed northern Israelites.
They were the “wife” that Yehova disavowed, and that will be remarried at the day of trumpets. This is the “Mystery” of which Paul spoke in Romans 7.
Bachmann needs some serious Bible study.
.
She’s got more oars in the water than most people “have oars” ... LOL ...
The full and complete borders of Israel won’t be in place until the Messiah of Israel returns to earth and sets up his one-world government!
I agree...a limp-wristed metrosexual attacking a faithful, conservative, congresswoman. She is much more courageous than him!
One can see it currently building to that end-result!
.
The “end of days” is a thousand years in the future.
Yeshua’s return, on the other hand, is close at hand. It comes at the end of Daniel’s “70th week.”
.
Anything’s possible. That’s the crazy thing about the future: it’s the future.
Anyhow, the bible account doesn’t mean that what we are calling the country Israel now, is going to be sitting there until the new messianic times. It could go away and the actual Israel be established later, and the bible still wouldn’t be wrong.
It bears watching, and of course it remains that those who bless the Jews will be blessed.
