The mainstream world is going crazy about the war between Hamas and Israel yet in the past few years many people have started to understand that the news is not necessarily the truth but rather a narrative to control the population. There is only one place we can know Truth and that is the Holy Scriptures.

Ezekiel 37 reads, “ ‘I will take the Israelites out of the nations to which they have gone, and I will gather them from all around and bring them into their own land.” That is where most people stop yet we must read the rest of the prophecy.

“They will no longer defile themselves with their idols or detestable images, or with any of their transgressions. I will save them from all their apostasies by which they sinned, and I will cleanse them. Then they will be My people, and I will be their God. My servant David will be king over them, and there will be one shepherd for all of them. They will follow My ordinances and keep and observe My statutes.

They will live in the land that I gave to My servant Jacob, where your fathers lived. They will live there forever with their children and grandchildren, and My servant David will be their prince forever. And I will make a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant. I will establish them and multiply them, and I will set My sanctuary among them forever. My dwelling placed will be with them; I will be their God, and they will be My people. Then the nations will know that I the LORD sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary is among them forever.’ ”

Israel does not worship Christ. This prophecy will only be fulfilled when Christ is the King of Israel. There is also the question of Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 that should be addressed.

Israel is only now a nation because the United Kingdom’s Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour wrote the Balfour Declaration and sent it to Lionel Walter Rothschild in 1917. It was a move of man, not of Yahweh.

The enemies of Yahweh read the Scriptures. Satan knows the Scripture better than most people who claim to follow Christ yet he twists them. The powers that be want a New World Order where they rule. If people are believing in Yah then the powers that be cannot be fully in charge.

A letter was written by Freemason Albert Pike to Mazzini in 1871 outlining a plan for three world wars. An excerpt from this letter reads, “The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the “agentur” of the “Illuminati” between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion… We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”

I know that it is said that this letter is a conspiracy theory. I wonder if those same people would believe that the Bible says that this world is a spiritual war. A war for your beliefs, a war for your mind, a war for your heart, a war for your allegiance. Christ is the Way the Truth and the Life. No one will come to the Father but through Him.

If you call yourself a follower of Christ you must read the Scriptures in order to renew your mind; both Old and New Testaments because the New Testament is built on the foundation of the Old Testament. There are many, many people including pastors who are teaching false doctrine, the myths and traditions of men. You will not know that if you are not steeped in the Scripture.

You have probably been taught that the church is the bride of Christ yet in Revelation 21:9-11 we read, “Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,”

You must read the Scriptures yourself.
