Sadly,
Hating
Jews is Back in Vogue: Sign of the End-Times
We
see Anti-Semitism accelerating and growing
around the world, and we can be sure this is a sign that the end of this age
is drawing closer. Yeshua
forewarned, “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to
death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me,"
Matthew 24:9. As global turmoil accelerate, so will hatred of the Jews and
anyone else who looks similar in terms of worship and beliefs.
------------------------------------
The
Psalmist wrote, "O God, do not remain silent; do
not turn a deaf ear, do not stand aloof, O
God. See how your
enemies growl, how your foes rear their
heads. With cunning they
conspire against your people; they plot
against those you cherish. “Come,”
they say, “let us destroy them as a nation, so
that Israel’s name is remembered no more.” With
one mind they plot together; they
form an alliance against you," Psalm
83:1-5.
The
wave of anti-Semitic incidents is building and will create a tsunami of
persecution.
From Britain, France and South Africa to the U.S., attitudes are changing...
and for no apparent reason Jews are being persecuted and despised, while
other cruel religions and peoples are elevated. The BDS
movement (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement) against Israel is
growing. However, in the last days
the level of hatred will expand to include Christ-followers as well;
particularly, those who hold to the "testimony of Jesus Christ,"
as forewarned in the book of Revelation (1:1-3)--referred
to the last-day faithful, those who are "victorious" over the
Beast and his image; many who will be martyred for their faith (Revelation
3:21; Revelation
20:4)
Jesus prophesied
that the same hatred shown to Him during His years of ministry would be shown to His true
followers (John
15:18). As noted, He expanded this warning of hatred to come from
all nations for His name's sake (Matthew
24:9). According to the book of
Revelation the last attempt of hate to purge Messiah followers from the
world will sadly come out of Jerusalem and a rebuilt temple by a Jewish
Antichrist. The same tricks and claims against Jesus will surface
again against the Overcomers who confront the world with the same Gospel of
the Kingdom that Jesus and the Apostles preached. We can be silenced
for fear of offending others (John
20:19), or we can speak up because we were commanded to preach the
Gospel to all nations.
There's a growing
tool of hate called "intolerance". Any Christian, Christian
Organization, or Group who voices an opinion about religion, social
morality, government, and education and puts this in writing and posts it...
is now considered "intolerant" and to have committed a crime! This
alleged "hate speech" is now becoming a crime against humanity and
Messiah believers will eventually become the main target of this growing demonic
scheme. Actually when the accusation of "intolerance" is used
against believers it is a tool of hate and intolerance itself disguised by
those who have long hated Jesus and Christians, they have just found a new
way of doing it with public and government sanction. This is persecution
clear and simple. Others can have an opinion against Jesus and His
followers, but believers are being censored and their voices silenced... all
in the name of "hate speech".
For now, hatred is
growing against the Jews as a race; but soon, this will spread to anyone who
"acts like a Jew" (e.g., Sabbath-keepers) or stands up against the
prevailing view of the last days--those of the demonic-dwelt Antichrist
beast--referred to as an "it" (not human, although on the surface
looks human) with "its" policies and declarations, the Beast whom the
whole world (all nations) will worship and obey (global popularity). The
self-serving Beast who is about to challenge the sacrificial Lamb--the true
Conquering King.
"The
beast [Antichrist] was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies
and to exercise its authority for forty-two months [1,260 days]. It
opened its mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander His Name and His dwelling
place and those who live in heaven. It
was given power to wage war against God’s holy people and to conquer them.
And it was given authority over every tribe, people, language and
nation.
All inhabitants of the
earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written
in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of
the world," (Revelation 13:5-8).
