Just as Noah built an ark of salvation so can we.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">It is a process of toil and struggle. The results will elevate us all in these troubling times. Have you even wondered why God give Noah the responsibility to build the ark? Of course, we can say he was the only one righteous enough to hear from G-D.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080;\"> But why did HaShem not just save the righteous? Why must humanity participate in building this vessel of salvation?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Almost every end-time teaching today has Gog\/Magog invading Israel before the coming of Messiah. All the Biblical nations mentioned in this invasion have been matched up with today\u2019s countries and are being carefully monitored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">With Russia\u2019s sudden reentry into the Middle East allied with Syria and Iran many are asking nervously, \u201cis this Gog\u2019s Axis of Evil?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">But could all our concern about Gog\u2019s army be completely misplaced? The Bible only mentions Gog and Magog in two places: Ezekiel 38:1- 39:16 and Revelation 20:7-11. Ezekiel\u2019s prophecy doesn\u2019t give us a precise timing for Gog\u2019s attack other than he will be summoned \u201cin the latter years.\u201d But John\u2019s revelation is very specific. He places Gog\u2019s invasion at the end of the 1000-year reign of Messiah.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">So why are so many biblical prognosticators certain Gog will attack before Yeshua even gets here? Especially when the conditions needed to provoke his attack in Ezekiel\u2019s prophecy depict the supernatural peace of the Messianic Age? Ezekiel\u2019s prophecy describes an Israel \u2013 \u201crestored from the sword, whose inhabitants are \u2026all living securely, all of them\u2026and without walls and having no bars or gates.\u201d But how can that type of peace and security exist prior toYeshua coming and destroying Antichrist and the evil world system? (Rev. 19:11-21)<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">I know many believe Antichrist will trick Israel into accepting a false peace plan. But in today\u2019s world, does anyone seriously think Israel would dismantle its nuclear deterrent, Iron Dome defense and world-class army and air force, and just kick back and raise sheep? I don\u2019t care how beguiling Antichrist\u2019s peace plan might be, Israel has learned its lesson about trusting any Gentile power with its security. Their slogan is, \u201cNever again!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Ibelieve it\u2019s time to reconsider some things. When we look at the preceding chapters in Ezekiel we see a succession of prophecies that must be fulfilled for this unprecedented peace and security to be present in Israel before the Gog\/Magog invasion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Starting in chapter 28: 24,25 we read the security starts after scattered Israel comes into the land, and all her enemies \u201cwho scorned them round about\u201d are no more. God\u2019s holiness will then be manifested in them \u201cin the sight of all the nations.\u201d Neither is the case today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In chapter 34, we learn the scattered \u2018sheep\u2019 of BOTH Israel\u2019s two kingdoms must be regathered, not just the descendants of Judah, and all living under one shepherd, Messiah. \u201cAnd I will make a covenant of peace with them\u2026and they will live securely and no one will make them afraid\u201d (v. 25). Even harmful animals will be eliminated so the people \u201c\u2026may sleep in the woods.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In chapter 37 we have the famous two-stick prophecy that graphically symbolizes the reunion of Judah and Israel under \u201cMy servant David.\u201d And it states, \u201cI will make a covenant of peace with them\u201d \u2013 which results in Israel entering her Millennium rest with \u201c\u2026My sanctuary in their midst forever.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">That brings us to chapter 38 where we find this amazing peace now in place and Gog being summoned \u201cafter many days\u201d to attack \u201cthe land restored from the sword\u201d and those \u201cwho are at rest.\u201d Surely this describes the millennial reign of Messiah when \u201cthe wolf will live with the lamb\u201d (Isa. 11:6). And \u201cnation will not lift up sword against nation, and never again learn war\u201d (Isaiah 2:4) \u2013 that is, until Satan is let loose one more time!<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000080;\"> f so, whatever Russia\u2019s presence might mean today, we know Gog won\u2019t show up for at least another thousand years!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Maybe we should be focusing on what\u2019s needed to bring about this awesome end-time peace and security \u2013 namely, the reunion of Judah and Israel. And if this growing fellowship of Zionist Christians and Jews today isn\u2019t the start of that reunion, I don\u2019t know what is.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"background: #d0e6fa; width: 710px; height: 15px;\" \/>\n<div id=\"content\" class=\" content-alignment&lt;br \/&gt;&lt;br \/&gt; \">\n<div id=\"watch-description\" class=\"yt-uix-button-panel\">\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"> twoje uwagi, linki, wlasne artykuly, lub wiadomosci przeslij do: <span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #000080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"mailto:webmaster@reunion68.com\">webmaster@reunion68.com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr style=\"width: 710px;\" \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rising above judgment Rod Bryant The connection between Noah\u2019s flood narrative and the end of days judgment of the nations.
