Dear brothers and sisters, please allow me to momentarily but entirely don my pastoral hat. Fear is Satan’s primary weapon; it is the opposite of faith. May we note that these are indeed “the last days,” and God is sending forth a Gideon call to assembly (Judg 6:34,35) for the time has come that God’s chosen pastors stand up, and at no small personal risk, publicly place their lives (bought and paid for you will recall) against the overwhelming abundance of politically correct but delusional thought (“God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie” 2 Thes 2:11) that through the intermittent conditioning stimuli of fear, daily manipulates and maneuvers the flock (capturing their minds), steering them into the quagmire of vacillating uncertainty, unfaithfulness, and ever deeper darker chaos. Nevertheless, for the sake of love which is Light (“I am the light of the world” John 8:12; “Ye are the light of the world” Mat 5:14) and order, and duty, pastors must accept the responsibility and the increasingly great peril of enlightening their congregations with the Truth (“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” John 14:6) as it has been, is, and shall be revealed to us.
As a pastor watchman being held responsible by God for leading, feeding, healing, safeguarding and otherwise protecting and enhancing the flock, I am duty-bound compelled to convey my thoughts (effective influence) about the current world situation in the Middle East. Let us then examine, with biblical applications, the present Middle Eastern conflict. According to Nelson’s Illustrated Bible Dictionary, “Mohammed claimed Ishmael as his ancestor, as do most Arabs.” Followers of Mohammed are called Muslims.
ISHMAEL (MUSLIMS)
(Gen 16:10-12) And the angel of the LORD said unto her [to “Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid” Gen 25:12], I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude. And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction. And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell [Heb: reside: abide, have habitation] in the presence [Heb: the face] [in the company] of all his brethren [i.e., amongst his fellow Muslims].
1. Commentary: The Word of God prophesies that Ishmael’s “hand shall be against every man, and every man’s hand against him,” and further, that “he shall dwell in the presence [Heb: the face (in the company)] of all his brethren.” Unprovoked by the United States and left alone, against what man shall the hand of this “wild man” be, and whose hand shall be against him? Answer: the hand of his own brethren whom we may identify as Muslims. Is exactly this not been happening, is it not now happening in the world today? Yep!
2. Commentary: Therefore, let us say that if you should come upon two strong men who are ideological brothers (brethren), such, for example, as two Muslim brethren who both hate you and to whom you are to them an infidel and enemy that they are seriously desirous of killing, and those two brethren are noisily scrapping, brawling, and otherwise fighting to the death against each other, do you interfere? Where is the wisdom in that? What do you suppose would happen if you did? Answer: they would immediately together turn on you. Our President and Congress, apparently considering the Bible and common sense irrelevant, are presently contemplating entering into just such an action.
MORE ISMAELITES (MUSLIMS)
AND THEIR PARTICIPATION IN THE SEVEN YEAR TRIBULATION,
THE LATTER HALF OF WHICH WE ARE ABOUT TO ENTER INTO BEING WORLD WAR III
(Judg 6:1-5) And the children of Israel [by extrapolation: professing Christians; the United States of America] did evil [note 3] in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian [Heb: brawling, contentious, discord, strife] [i.e., division; obviously unsaved people] seven years [a type and shadow of the seven year Tribulation]. And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel: and because of the Midianites the children of Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains, and caves, and strong holds. And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east [a temporary loose confederation of independent Bedouin Arabs and tribes, thus they are not named as a unit], even they came up against them [joined together with the Midianites under the Midianite banner]; And they encamped against them [established prolific non-integrative non-assimilating residences], and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance [Heb: preservation of life /// to live: keep (leave, make) alive] for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass. For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came as grasshoppers [Heb: locusts] for multitude; for both they and their camels were without number: and they entered into the land to destroy it [a very clear biblical statement and prophetic application for the present].
1. (Judg 8:24) And Gideon said unto them [the men of Israel], I would desire a request of you, that ye would give me every man the earrings of his prey [the Midianites]. (For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.)
2. Commentary: Genesis 37:25-36 also identifies “a company of Ishmeelites” (Gen 37:25) and thereafter identifies that very same company as “the Midianites” (Gen 37:36).
3. Commentary: “did evil” = The United States Government and the people thereof exorcised God out of the national school system in 1962, approved abortion in 1973, discontinued Conscription (the military draft) in 1973, and placed their confidence, trust, and vote for Barack Hussein Obama to be the President of the United States in 2008, and once again in 2012, voting (endorsing) twice for an unsaved man, therefore in the eyes of God an “evil” man, to represent them and to lead them.
THE END OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION (WORLD WAR III)
(Judg 7:22) And the three hundred [chosen Israelite warriors] blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the [Midianite] host: and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath.
1. (Ezek 38:18) And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face [i.e., the wrath of God]. (Ezek 38:21) And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man's sword shall be against his brother.
2. (John 3:36) He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
ANOTHER MUSLIM
Barack Hussein Obama is an Arabic name adopted in substitution for Barry Soetoro which was the name given at the time of his enrollment into an Indonesian madrasa elementary school from the age of five years through the age of ten years for the intensive study (indoctrination) of the Islamic religion. The primary objective of a madrasa is the memorization and oral rendition of the Qur’an (Koran) in Arabic. Consequently, Barack Hussein Obama speaks fluent Arabic and is evidentially a Sunni Muslim believer worshipping under the leading head of the Sunni denomination, the King of Saudi Arabia (hence, the televised “bow” early on in his first administration). Not incidentally, Saudi Arabia has the world’s 2nd largest oil reserves and the 6th largest natural gas reserves, so the preservation of Saudi Arabian oil and natural gas resources, and access thereto, is paramount to Barack, not really for our benefit, but for Sunni Saudi Arabia. Inside Barack Hussein Obama’s mind lives the ever-present Muslim belief system with its deeply-rooted religious convictions and objectives, and a few other little things like Islamic supreme world domination, and immediate conversion of infidels (unbelievers) either to Islam or to death (a tabled tenet for the moment), conversion or death to all non-Islamic men, women, and children. These are among the Koran belief tenets that were taught to Barack Hussein Obama in madrasa as a child and are now thoroughly seated in his mind. The childhood madrasa education that he absorbed as he grew up from child to adolescent, a time when one is most pliable, and his mostly hidden from public view activities with his Islamic associates, friends, businesses, his Muslim government appointees, his Islamic feast celebrations, and his frequent observations of Islamic holy days act together as numerous small betraying protrusions manifesting themselves out of the powerful darkly surging Islamic undercurrent of his thoughts, altering, biasing, and influencing all of his personal, public, and governmental decisions.
CONCLUDING COMMENTARY
May we hazard that the Middle Eastern conflict is based upon greed and lust for oil and natural gas, and the logistical locations of the distribution pipelines of that oil and gas (“the love of money is the root of all evil” 1 Tim 6:10). Venezuela has the 1st and largest amount of global oil reserves at 20%, Saudi Arabia has the 2nd largest amount of global oil reserves at 18%, Canada has the 3rd largest amount of global oil reserves at 13%, which explains why Obama has been delaying for 4 ½ years the building of a Canadian oil distribution pipeline to the USA that would greatly lessen our dependence upon Saudi Arabian oil, and Iran has the 4th largest amount of global oil reserves at 9%. The primary chess player in the current Middle Eastern conflict is Sunni Saudi Arabia who has the world’s 2nd largest oil reserves (18%) and the 6th largest natural gas reserves. Saudi Arabia is intent upon manipulating the United States into using up, and foolishly weakening (through Obama’s enormous influence) and debilitating our military, essentially turning our military into a much smaller (non-threatening) mercenary army dependent upon and therefore subject to Saudi Arabia, envisioning us rather like slaves to their oil sheiks. Shiite Iran is the opposing primary chess player who has the world’s 4th largest oil reserves (9%) and the 1st largest natural gas reserves. Iran’s Islamic theology is much more militant than Saudi Arabia’s. Iran would like to thoroughly destroy our military and the entire United States into non-existence, and will suddenly and eagerly do so if given the opportunity. We seem, through the continuous non-action and duplicity of our duly elected leadership, to be repeatedly granting Iran the singular nuclear opportunity of destroying the United States of America. It is highly probable that only God’s chosen people, the tiny nation of Israel, itself in severe jeopardy, will bomb or otherwise destroy Iran’s nuclear arsenals in an attempt to save themselves and secondarily, to save their on and off lukewarm ally, the United States of America.
Finally, please note that every country in the world that deems itself “a player” is rapidly building up their military and preparing offensively and defensively for war, except the United States. Our representative elected President and Congressional officials are actively tearing down, disbanding and severely de-powering our military. Does that make any sense to a loyal patriotic American? Is that what you want?
Amen
A Man of God
