The Judeans in Babylon were there because of God’s judgment against them for the abominations they practiced, especially child sacrifice. The judgment against the nations for that is invasion and conquest. The Jews in Babylon were the remnant believers. Daniel was there.
Cyrus is a good example for dominionists because he is a conquering king who is used by God to free the Israelite remnant and send them home with supplies to worship the One True God. If anyone thinks that America deserves this now, they are being delusional.
There has been no revival as in the time of Josiah and God’s wrath has not been unleashed. The world is united in practicing pre-born genocide, and the shedding of innocent blood flows through the streets of “civilizations”/s all over the globe.
This article seems like a false teaching of blessing when in fact the nations should be warned of the coming fall.
Thoughtful points - and great homepage !
Yep, this election cycle I have watched as a strong delusion seems to be over this nation, nothing makes sense. I would love to believe Trump is going to be used to help believers but I can’t help but wonder if he is being used to punish us.
Jeremiah penned the sin of the House of Israel and the House of Judah was spiritual adultery. God called both houses harlots. 200 years prior to the House of Judah (tribes of Judah and Benjamin), being taken to Babylon, God sent the House of Israel, 10 Northern tribes, Samaria, into captivity to the Assyrian king.
It was of the House of Judah along with Benjamin that Cyrus sent back to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple... The House of Israel is reference by Christ as the 'lost sheep' of the house of Israel. Part of their punishment was their generations would not know who they are. Hosea.
