The Destruction And Restoration Of Israel


The question begs to be asked, who are the children of Israel and what is their role when it comes to serving God. We understand they are the chosen  Priest of God, however did they fulfill that obligation. What caused them to be enslaved and scattered into all nations. Who was responsible for the nation going into captivity. What is their true identity and what makes them stand out from other nations. All these questions can be truly answered by one book...The Bible!


Read!


 God Speaks To Moses From The Mount In The Wilderness Of Sinai 


Why?


In the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they into the wilderness of Sinai. And Moses went up unto God,and the Lord called unto him out of  the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;  


Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the  earth is mine: And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel. 

 

And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these words which the Lord commanded him. And all the people answered together, and said, All that the Lord hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto the Lord 


Exodus 19:1‭-‬9 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/exo.19.1-9.KJV


The Children of Israel heard the voice of the Lord, who said they shall be a Kingdom of Priests and a holy nation; therefore, The Children of Israel entered into a covenant or agreement with the Lord to do all that the Lord instructed.


Did The Children Of Israel Obey The Covenant As Instructed By The Lord 



And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord , and served Baalim: And they forsook the Lord God of  their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the Lord to anger.  


And they forsook the Lord , and served Baal and Ashtoreth.  And the anger of the Lord was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.


 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had said, and as the Lord had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed. 


Judges 2:11‭-‬16 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/jdg.2.11-16.KJV


Remember the Children of Israel agreed to do as the Lord instructed; yet, they chose to serve the gods of other nations. As a consequence for their disobediance, The Lord  delivered them into the hands of their enemies.. Hint! Hint!. You notice it was the Lord who punished the Children of Israel by using other nations even today.


What Else Were The Children Of Israel Doing In their Own Land


* Pay close attention *

 

Hear the word of the Lord , ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.  


By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood. 

  

Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother. 


My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.  

Hosea 4:1‭-‬7 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/hos.4.1-7.KJV


Hear this word that the Lord hath spoken against you, O chil-dren of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying, You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.


Amos 3:1‭-‬3 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/amo.3.1-3.KJV


Israel continued to sin willfully against the commandments of God by lying, killing, stealing, and committing adultery while the children were in their own land. It is here where the Lord has rejected the Children of Israel from being his Priest, because they had forgotten the law of their God. The Lord even said he has forgotten their children and would punish the nation for all their iniquities. How absolutely is all ? We shall find out.



As A Result Of Disobedience, The Lord Gives A Detailed Account Of What Will Happen To The Children Of Israel 


Let’s Identify what Nation of People this happened to and why Did God Allow The Children of Israel to suffer such atrocities.



 

But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: 

  

The Lord shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth. 


 The Lord shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart: And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee.  


Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof.  


Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long: and there shall be no might in thine hand. .  


The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.  And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee. Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity.


The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low.He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail. 


Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:  


And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.Because thou servedst not theLord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee. 


 And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.

  

And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the Lord shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind: And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:  


In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt See.


And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.


Deuteronomy 28:1‭-‬4‭, ‬10‭, ‬12‭-‬18‭, ‬25‭,

 ‬28‭-‬37‭, ‬41‭-‬48‭, ‬64‭-‬68 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/deu.28.1-68.KJV



The Negroes (Israel) were brought to the nations as slaves.

Other people migrated to advance their own well-being,

but we were brought to advance other people's well being.


Because of disobedience God used other nations to punish

Israel as a result of continued disobedience, even unto this day!!



O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. 


Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him. 


 And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem. 


As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.  Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.


Daniel 9:8‭, ‬11‭-‬14 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/dan.9.8-14.KJV


It is the responsibility of Israel to teach all the sons and daughters of Adam. Israel blew the mission as the Priest of God. It was Israel who taught the wicked one their wicked ways (Jeremiah 2:33) . The whole world is out of course because the priest failed to do their job. Do you not realize when the Lord divided the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds according to the number of the Children Of Israel (Deuteronomy 32:8).

 


O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would not!  

 

Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.


Luke 13:34‭-‬35 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/luk.13.34-35.KJV


Time and time again the Lord has sent his prophets, rising early to warn the Children of Israel, however, Israel continued to break God's commandments and serve the Gods of other nations.  Nothing has changed and remains the same today; therefore, the nation remains in captivity until Jesus returns. 


Jerusalem Is Destroyed And Israel Is Scattered Into Captivity 


Israel was blind to what was about to take place in 70 AD.

The history book, Atlas of the Bible (pg.201-202), The Fall Of Jerusalem

 Details how Titus destroyed Jerusalem in 70 AD, to the ground.

500 hundred people were crucified daily.




And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,  Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,   And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.


Luke 19:41‭-‬44 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/luk.19.41-44.KJV


God gave all three of Noah's sons a time to rule the earth. 

Ham first, then Shem and now Japheth.The times of the Gentiles

 (Europeans/White people rule) until the return of Jesus.

Jesus returns at the end of The Great Tribulation. 


History Book: The Last 2 Million Years (pg. 87) “Faith survives

 the dispersions”, The Children of Israel were scattered throughout the

 Mediterranean world ( on the West African side) as slaves.





And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.   For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.   But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.  And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.  


Luke 21:20‭-‬28 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/luk.21.20-28.KJV


Israel Will Face Mass Incarceration Wherever They Are Scattered Into Captivity 


Blind ( Don't know the truth), Spoil (Cheat you out of your labor 

and property). The children of Israel out number every one in prison. 


Our God sold us to our enemies because of our disobedience.

 We can't blame other people for our condition. Our destruction is divine

 (By the hand of our God)


Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.  Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the Lord's servant?  Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not. The Lord is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable. 


 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.  Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come? 


 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the Lord , he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law. Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.


Isaiah 42:18‭-‬25 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/isa.42.18-25.KJV


You March And Protest In The Land Of Your Captivity; Yet, Your Condition Does Not Change.


You have no leaders who can stand up and lead you out of this captivity or change your condition. The sons and daughters of Israel lie at the head of the street corners and are mad at their condition because of the fury of our God. You are killing one another and the Police are killing you also.



Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the hand of the Lord the cup of his fury; thou hast drunken the dregs of the cup of trembling, and wrung them out.  


There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons that she hath brought up. 


 These two things are come unto thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?  Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as a wild bull in a net: they are full of the fury of the Lord , the rebuke of thy God.


Isaiah 51:17‭-‬20 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/isa.51.17-20.KJV


Just When You Think All Hope Is Lost; therefore, Pay Close Attention To What Is About To Take Place.


God's Elect (Israel) Will Be Gathered After The Great Tribulation



 

The 7th trumpet is blown to announce the coming of Jesus. At that time he will gather his elect, the Children of Israel.


 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.   


And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.


Matthew 24:27‭, ‬29‭-‬31 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.24.27-31.KJV




And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:  And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord ; 

 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.  The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.  And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.  And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.  They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord , as the waters cover the sea. 


 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.  And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.  And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.


Isaiah 11:1‭-‬2‭, ‬5‭-‬12 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/isa.11.1-12.KJV





All Nations Will come to Jerusalem and serve the God of Israel

 

The Disciples didn’t realize it was God’s desire to save all people, not just Israel (Acts 11:1-5, 12-18).Israel was adamant about not teaching anyone other than other Israelites. Why? Because Jesus told them that in Matthew Chapter 10 (Matt 10:1, 5-6). Israel had to be taught first before they could go out and teach the nations. 


Both Israel and the Stranger (Non-Israelite) have

to do the same things:


  • Repent

  • Get baptized in Jesus’ name

  • Get circumcised (Male)

  • Keep the Commandments

  • Obey the Dietary Law

  • Keep the Feasts of the Lord




But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it. 


 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord , and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.  


Micah 4:1‭-‬4 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/mic.4.1-4.KJV


Wait! when the children of Israel receive their inheritance in the land what will the  stranger receive who dwell among them and serve the God of Israel ?





Thus saith the Lord God ; This shall be the border, whereby ye shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.  And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning the which I lifted up mine hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance.


  And this shall be the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;  Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazar–hatticon, which is by the coast of Hauran.  So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel. 


And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.  And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord God .


Ezekiel 47:13‭-‬16‭, ‬21‭-‬23 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/ezk.47.13-23.KJV




And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.  


After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; 


 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.  


Revelation 7:1‭-‬4‭, ‬9‭-‬11 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/rev.7.1-11.KJV


The 144,000 are all Israelites, not Gentiles. The Gentiles who will be saved are

a part of the multitude who repented during the tribulation and those

who sought God beforehand and keep the Commandments.



Brother’s and Sister’s,

The Wrath Of The Lamb And The Sign Of His Coming



The Day of the Lord is a time when God acts decisively in human history to implement some aspect of his redemptive plan. Both the Old and New Testaments point to Christ's return or second coming to judge the world at history's end known as " the day of the Lord". The Revell concise bible dictionary Pg.163


Judgment Will Begin At The House Of God 


And Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for the elders of Israel, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented themselves before God. 


 Now therefore fear the Lord , and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the Lord .  


If ye forsake the Lord , and serve strange gods, then he will turn and do you hurt, and consume you, after that he hath done you good.  And the people said unto Joshua, Nay; but we will serve the Lord .  


And Joshua said unto the people, Ye are witnesses against yourselves that ye have chosen you the Lord , to serve him. And they said, We are witnesses.  


Now therefore put away, said he, the strange gods which are among you, and incline your heart unto the Lord God of Israel.  And the people said unto Joshua, The Lord our God will we serve, and his voice will we obey.


Joshua 24:1‭, ‬14‭, ‬20‭-‬24 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/jos.24.1-24.KJV



And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.  But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.


Luke 12:4‭-‬5 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/luk.12.4-5.KJV


A servant of God cannot serve two masters. Either he will hate one and love the other. Serving another God is in direct violation of the 1st Commandment (Exodus 20:3) which comes with a consequence. The Lord said he would hurt you or consume you for doing so. What other gods are the people serving today? 


Who Is The Lamb of God  



The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.


John 1:29 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/jhn.1.29.KJV



Is the world ready for the return of Jesus

 and what will be the sign of his coming


And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.  And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?


Matthew 24:1‭, ‬3 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.24.1-3.KJV


When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)   Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:   Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:   Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.   And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!   But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:   For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.


Matthew 24:15‭-‬21 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.24.15-21.KJV


Wait, have you been taught “we will be raptured off to heaven”, let’s see what else Jesus said.



Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:   And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.   And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.


Matthew 24:29‭-‬31 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.24.29-31.KJV


Check this out, Jesus said he is coming to gather his elect after the great tribulation, but before the Great Tribulation, you must flee when you see the Abomination of Desolation.  Someone is misleading the people and it's not Jesus.



But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.  For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.  For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.  For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:  Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


1 Thessalonians 4:13‭-‬17 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/1th.4.13-17.KJV


And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.  And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;  Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?


 this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.


Acts 1:9‭-‬11 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/act.1.9-11.KJV


Wait! Did you catch That! The Same Jesus Who Went Up To Heaven Is The Same Jesus Who Is coming back down To The Earth!


Christ is coming down, which means to descend and the dead will rise; meaning, ascend. Those who are alive will meet the Lord in the air and come back to the earth.....but I digress. Let The Bible speak for itself.


Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.  And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.  


And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.


  And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord , and his name one. 


 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses.  And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.


Zechariah 14:3‭-‬11 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/zec.14.3-11.KJV




For the Lord hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.  This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.


Psalms 132:13‭-‬14 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/psa.132.13-14.KJV


Let Us Continue To Search The Scriptures

 And Find Out  What Happens Once Jesus Returns to The Earth 



Everyone has to repent and come under the blood of Jesus to escape the wrath to come and what about those who refuse.


READ!


And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.  And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? 


 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.  


And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.  And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.


  And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;


Revelation 5:1‭-‬9 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/rev.5.1-9.KJV


Tic Toc Time Is Running Out



The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.  The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. 

 

Psalms 110:1‭-‬6 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/psa.110.1-6.KJV


Brothers and Sisters remember the Lord said to serve him in sincerity and truth. To put away from you other gods; therefore, mankind chose not to serve the true and living God, but Idols. Sin and  transgression of God's law is the very reason for the wrath of the Lamb. Jesus is coming to set up the fathers kingdom/government; therefore, There will be no wickedness or anything that offends in “His” kingdom.



And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;  And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.  And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.


  And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;  And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:  For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?


Revelation 6:12‭-‬17 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/rev.6.12-17.KJV


Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.  Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:


  Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.  For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. 


 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.  I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.  Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.


Isaiah 13:6‭-‬7‭, ‬9‭-‬13 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/isa.13.6-13.KJV



And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 


 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.  And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.  


And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.  And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.  


And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF LORDS.  And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.  


And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. 


 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.


Revelation 19:11‭-‬16‭, ‬19‭-‬21 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/rev.19.11-21.KJV


Unfortunately Jesus is going to do  a lot of killing upon his return to the earth. But why? Because man has become corrupted and changed the laws of God. Adultery, homosexuality, fornication, murder, and all forms of wickedness, mankind has indulged themselves in because of an unrepentant heart ; therefore, the Lord is angry. The Beast/Temporal Leader (Head of the European Union) and the False Prophet/Pope ( The Religious Leader) were thrown into the Lake of Fire. The Lord is even going to fight against the Pastors/Shepherds who have caused the people to sin a great sin in turning many away from God.



Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord .  Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord .  




Jeremiah 23:1‭-‬8 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/jer.23.1-8.KJV


The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies. I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.  


Isaiah 42:13‭-‬14‭, ‬17 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/isa.42.13-17.KJV



And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.


  And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.  And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped. 


 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.  And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe. 


 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.


Revelation 14:14‭-‬20 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/rev.14.14-20.KJV



Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand;  A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. 


 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:  And the Lord shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?  


Therefore also now, saith the Lord , turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:  And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.  


And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.

 And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink.  Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Philistia? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;  Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:  The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.

And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath driven thee,  


And shalt return unto the Lord thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul;  That then the Lord thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath scattered thee.   


And the Lord thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers. 


 And the Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.  And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.  But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken it.
