In time, our adversary Satan patiently erodes and uses his lethal assimilation tactic to undermine truth. In the last five hundred years, we have gone from complete darkness of no published Scripture to the translation work began by the Reformist who translated word for word. But we then relaxed our vigilance to thought for thought, then relaxed into paraphrase, and now we find ourselves in the weakened state of simply knowing concepts. We are once again primed to be hijacked. When we read different versions for understanding, as a supplement to the primary text, then that can be very helpful, but when we don't know the primary truths they represent, and our understanding is in concept only, then that becomes a vulnerable position. We are no longer threatened by the absence of truth!
In the meantime, Satan has diluted the clarity of the truth once again. Though we have access to more truth than ever before in history, available in printed and digital form, it is no longer regarded as priceless but as common as our next email or text. Sadly, we are both preoccupied and stimulated by so much digital drama that we have become distracted, not just with our busyness and need for a digital fix, but we have become addicted to distraction itself. This distraction is calculated, so that we won’t see that we are slowly being hijacked and numbed by replacement. This generation could rightfully say, “The truth was staring me in the face, but I did not recognize it, because I did not know it.”
Remember, Mystery Babylon is marching under a banner of goodwill with their army of global servers, who seek to have right relations with others that live and let live – an all inclusiveness for everyone, serving justice and peace for all. "WOW, that sounds pretty good!" That’s because it was designed to sound good, so much so, you wouldn’t know that evil had hijacked the concept of good altogether -- and most under this influence doesn't either!
Without us knowing it, the concept of good has been hijacked and the Western Church has become anemic and distracted from being guardians of Scripture. We need to wakeup and realize the language of “Theology in the Service of Peace and Justice” is streamlining the same jargon of Universalism.
Let’s ask the question, can our congregations discern between the concepts of those who are true followers of Christ and the followers of the Cosmic Christ, who purport the goodwill agenda? Well don’t feel bad if you can’t, because thousands of pastors, elders, leaders and Sunday School teachers have no idea that the sheep have been hijacked through assimilation without ever leaving the walls of our churches! The tricky buy-in is that we agree in concept because by and large the goodwill agenda is a inverted form of the mandate of the Church. However, though we agree in concept, the devil is in the details – literally! And by moving further and further from the Scriptures, we are sipping deceitful Kool-Aid!
Now there are entire movements within the Western Church, using the concepts of Christianity, and purporting the goodwill agendas circulating within Universalism, once again working against the Jewish people and the Nation of Israel as well as Christians who believe the written word as the absolute truth of God! They leverage their assault under equality and justice for all.
BDS
Case in point, there is a global campaign that is presently growing where entire church denominations, variant liberal organizations and nations (and universities within those nations) are all actively leveraging what they call their BDS movement. BDS stands for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions against Israel in hopes of religiously, politically and economically pressure Israel to give in to Palestinian demands.
Their claim is that Israel is not treating the Palestinians with equality and justice. Never mind that the Palestinians have refused Israel’s olive branch of peace, vowing Israel’s destruction and refusing to recognize her as a nation - a miraculous, God restored, prophecy fulfilled nation! This, as mentioned before, is an unnatural bias!
Imposing relationship without accountable and responsible reconciliation is just plain-o, plain-o dysfunctional codependency. It says something about those trying to impose it. It is the theology that attempts to make folk feel better in sin, rather than being delivered from sin. The liberal justice-heralding theologians are making accusations of Israel that are simply not true and in turn, justifying Palestinian suicide bombings, daily rockets raining down on Israeli communities and the recent atrocities of the October 7th massacre! All this justified because of Palestinian victimization.
And just a word on the antisemitic riots supporting the "victimization of the Palestinians people," all over the world. Anthony Blinken, US Secretary of State, has repeatedly, along with other Western nations, said forthrightly that Isrel has a right to defend itself. He also has very gingerly acknowledged the unfortunate death toll and losses of the Palestinians living in Gaza, but he has stated at almost every press conference, that all this could STOP at ANY TIME if Hamas would return the hostages, agreed to a cease fire, stop sending rockets into Israel and stop using the Palestinians as human shields! On many occasions, he commented on his astonishment at the disproportionate rallies against Israel and asks the obviously question, "Where are the protests against Hamas?" And for that matter, Hezbollah, who is raining down rockets on Israel daily -- 80,000 Israeli's have been evacuated from their homes.
Politicizing this victimization and indoctrinating it by creating theological and political movements supporting the Palestinians under the banner of a justice-for-all policy – a justice, mind you, without accountability -- is like Cain demanding equal rights with Abel, but not willing to do what Abel did to receive God’s favor (Architecting of Iniquity). Or Lamech justifying his unrighteous pouty killing sprees because he was offended (Lamech Victim Personified).
Apartheid
If BDS was not bad enough, the theological and political branches aligned with the Palestinians began to accuse Israel of apartheid.
The author of Investigating the Accusations of Apartheid in Israel, Benjamin Pogrund, is a South African and the leading journalist that covered and advocated extensively against the South African apartheid. His book is basically making a comparison between Israel and South Africa, substantiating that the accusations against Israel are groundless, noting that Israel’s 21% Arab population are full citizens in every right, receiving full benefits of Israeli society. He also noted that presently sixteen Arabs Israelis hold office in the government, as well as high-level positions in the military, hospitals and universities.
However, his main point which he underscores as the primary evidence of the false accusation against Israel is that Arab Israelis have the right to vote and full citizenship, therefore they have significant power.
Why? It has been Israeli Law since they received the Torah on Mount Sinai, from the get go as nation, per The Lord's command, they have enforced the same laws for themselves and the stranger amongst them!
I can assure you the Arab Israelis, those Arabs who are legal citizens of Israel, would not give up their citizenship and go live in Palestinian controlled areas if you paid them! They enjoy equal rights and equal benefits, which would all be but lost if they gave up their Israeli citizenship for the PA.
We have to remember that Satan’s campaign lingo is false accusation, that progresses into deliberate and calculated deceitful lies. This is direct fulfillment of prophecy,
So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman (Israel), that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood…. And the dragon was enraged with the woman (Israel), and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God (Jews) and have the testimony of Jesus Christ (grafted in Gentiles). Rev 12:15, 17
Here is the absurdity of all this, much of this foolishness has come from liberal religious movements who are far removed from the fundamentals of what the Scriptures actually teach and have promoted the concept of goodwill and justice for all completely unaccountable to the facts. The obvious and contrasting difference in their glaring bias of "justice for all" advocation doesn't include Israel!"
Furthermore, the all-inclusiveness of Universalism’s peace and justice for all mumbo jumbo completely disregards and assails God’s exclusive covenant with the Jewish people and their final redemption and the exclusivity of the atonement in the Blood of Jesus our Messiah! This is nothing but straight-up charming snake talk!
God’s door is swung wide open to the Palestinian, the Jew and to any Gentile alike, He is not a respecter of persons – but all that enter His Door, do so on His terms, His promises and His fulfillment of prophecy – including Israel’s end-time final redemption prophecy!
God will unapologetically save His Jewish people!
