There is a new mixture going on in the Body of Christ in this given season. This mixture involves the teachings and principles surrounding the Nation of Israel. I am finding more and more people who claim to follow Christ, who are saying that they do not support the Nation of Israel. How can this be? I do not understand how they can call themselves “Christians” following this belief system and principles.
I believe the Bible is very clear when it talks about the Nation of Israel and the people who come out of that Nation. It says that they are God's chosen people. I know over the years the level of Bible teaching has diminished greatly. I know that the level of understanding of the Bible has diminished even further. This becomes an even greater problem when you have teachers, preachers, prophets, and apostles who out of their mouths proclaim that they are blood brought Children of God. Yet they have a hatred in their hearts for our brothers and sisters in Israel. These two things cannot exist together.
“Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening?”, James 3: 11 {NKJV}
“If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.”, I John 4: 20 – 21 {NKJV}
There is no other way to reconcile these scriptures. You cannot legitimately say that you love God and have hatred in your heart for His chosen people. It doesn’t stop there; they are now going a step further and changing the teachings that have been foundational to the Church. They are blaming Israel for what is going on and they are siding with the Arabs who are terrorists living amongst the Jews. These Arabs have one agenda, destroy Israel. The Body of Christ has now come into agreement with this and they are teaching others in the Body of Christ to believe the same. This is wrong.
I do not like this but the hatred that I am seeing come out of the body of Christ is growing. I don't like how this feels. I don't like how this looks to the rest of the world because this shows how divided the Church really is. When the Church ignores the basic principles that are found in the Bible and rejects in whole or in part God's Chosen People (Israel) there is something seriously wrong with the Church.
“For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches. And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and [d]fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.”, Romans 11: 16 – 18 {NKJV}
The Bible is extremely clear when it talks about how the Gentile church was grafted into the vine that came from the Jewish Nation. There are a multitude of scriptures that depict these truths. However, it is not just about those scriptures, it is also about the intent that is behind those scriptures. It is clear the Bible says that in the “End days knowledge will be increased” with this increase in knowledge also comes a decrease in common sense.
People have taken the Bible out of context and used it to do many evil things. They do this because they do not know God nor His heart. They believe that they can justify their hatred against His people. But they in turn become a stumbling block for the entire Body of Christ.
We, the Church, are being judged in this season. We, the Church, are being judged for our hatred, for our lack of love, and for our lack of understanding of the true heart and nature of God. We are in the “End Times” and these things have to come to pass. They have to play themselves out in order for every part of the Gospel to be fulfilled. We are reaching a day and an hour when the Gospel is being preached all across the lands. We have reached the day and the hour where the “Consummation of the Ages” will take place. The end of the “Gentile Dispensation” marks the beginning of a new relationship with God and His chosen people. We must not be ignorant of God's ways, His plans, or His purposes. They are far greater than men’s ways.
When it comes to the Nation of Israel, God intends to show them His love. God intends to restore everything that the palmer and canker worm have stolen from them. Even the relationship that the Jewish people have with God will be restored and made new. You cannot sit as a “Gentile” and judge the Nation of Israel. You are touching God’s heart. You are drawing God’s fire toward you and it will consume you until there is nothing left of you.
We have no right to be jealous. We have no right to hate the Jewish Nation because if it wasn't for their sin, their misunderstanding of who God is, we would have never had an opportunity to experience the “Gift of Salvation” the way that we do today. Our hearts should be breaking at what the Nation of Israel has to go through in this time period. We must understand that God is allowing all of these events to take place to bring them back into His arms.
We're going to see revival like never before. We're going to see God's Spirit move upon all of His people Jew and Gentile alike.
“And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days.”, Joel 2: 28 – 29 {NKJV]
“For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob; For this is My covenant with them, when I take away their sins.”, Romans 11: 25 – 27 {NKJV}.
God is going to use us because He is going to send His spirit into the earth. He is going to send His spirit to us to move through us. It will be the perfect demonstration and it will cause the Jewish people to seek after God like never before.
There is going to be a “Remembrance of the former things.” There is going to be a “Remembrance” in their hearts of how they used to follow God. And when they see the anointing fall upon us Gentiles, they will marvel, and they will come back to God. This is one of the greatest mysteries of the entire Bible and it is fulfilling itself right now right before our very eyes. We are part of the generation that is going to see all of these types of miracles take place. Right here, right now.
Do not get caught in the tide of evil that is being used to come against the Nation of Israel. Do not allow the new mixture to pull you out of God’s will. The enemy is working overtime but God has a greater plan at work and nothing will stop what He is doing. Pray without ceasing so that you do not fall prey to the deception that is rapidly advancing and destroying the Body of Christ. Selah.
