Virgin Birth. Part-Two.

Many people today disbelieve what the bible has to say, they claim it is a book of fables and old  ideas from peoples and cultures of ancient times. They claim that these moral codes do not fit into modern society and practice, because the writers of the bible lived in ignorance?

But we cannot get away from the historical facts, that have been recoded in relation to Christo-Judaism. Jesus the promised Messiah was born to a Virgin and King Herod did carry out a massacre of all boy children within his kingdom up to the age of two years-old. Because of his paranoia that a king was born, which could take his power base from under him. This king was recognized by three great eastern empires of the day.

Matthew 2:1-2,  7-9,  10-11,  13-18, Jeremiah 31:15.

What in the World? Part-Two.

People do not like to hear that Israel is a chosen nation by God, they want to say that what is written in the bible is not true or it was written from their point of view.  Numbers 32:9-12.

The land was given to them and they lost it due to disobedience, but God always promised He would restore them one day. That day has come and all the events of history and human time will be played out in this region. Matthew 24 and 2 Thessalonians 2.

For believers we need not worry about these events. 

But if we are not saved, then we do need to seek Jesus today.

War. Part-Two.

Remembrance Sunday.

On the 11th minute of the 11th hour of the 11th November 1918 the first World War of the 20th Century ended. Million of British and allied soldiers had died, in what seemed a pointless war. Twenty years later over 100 million people would die in another World War (1939-45). The first world war saw the introduction of the tank and the use of mustered gas. the second would see mass areal bombing, missiles and atomic weapons.

Thousands of veterans will walk through central London on Sunday morning and our Queen Elizabeth-II will lay wreaths to the fallen. Among the dead are the 12 million civilian’s Jews and Chinese who died in work and death camps, some being medically experimented on.

Jesus told His followers not to be worried about wars, because they were inevitable. Mark 13:7

The condition of our hearts are selfish and sinful. Romans 3:23, 6:23.

At the end we need to know on Judgement Day were we will be standing with God.   John 3:16-21,   Acts 4:12.

Can a Christian be Nationalistic? Part-One.

It is said today we live in such a liberal society, that we can be anything we want to be?

But is this really true?  Can Born-again Believers really be anything or do we have to live our lives to Jesus standards and follow Him?  Many hold on to their baggage, instead of letting go, the prejudices, racism, arrogance and nationalism. But is God is not like us and He does not want this earthly things to block, especially our witness of Jesus to a lost world.

John 3:16,  James 2:2-6,   1:14,   19-20.

Demythologization. Part-Two.

Karl Barth made a brave stance, when he refused to take the Hitler salute at the Barman conference. Barth said ‘that he would only acknowledge Jesus at the conference and never a man.

As we look back into history we can see that it was a long time before German Christians would speak out against the Jewish genocide. It was only when they came under threat from Adolf Hitler that they unified.

Today many Christians are against Israel and they continue to play the anti-Semitic ticket, denying biblical prophecy and  many things that are in conflict with biblical teaching.  Revelation 19:20.

Palestine. Part-Three.

From Ad57 to 1920 the Arab peoples who lived in this region had no real issues with the Turkish control of that region.

During the Christian Crusades, the autrosouties committed by the Crusaders have not been forgotten to this day by the Muslim world.

Before deluded people claiming to be followers of Jesus, the Jewish Messiah jump up to defend the rights of the mythical Palestinians and their claims today. They first need to account for the Crusades.

World history and events are all tied into God’s plan for His people Israel, which are the Jews and not the doctrines of replacement theology that replaces Israel with the Church. Jesus said it himself  ‘Salvation is from the Jews’. John 4:22.

Replacement Theology. Part-Two.

Don’t be to smug!

Both the Jews and the gentiles who have faith and trust in the death and resurrection of Jesus the Messiah are now united as one people. Ephesians 2:11-18. But we must remember, we gentiles are only grafted into the vine because of Jewish unbelief. We who are olive branches can be removed, since God can do anything. This doctrine takes apart the teaching of ‘once saved always saved.’ Romans 11:11-36.

We are given a serious warning in Romans 11:20-22, which should be heeded.

Meanwhile God has a separate plan for Israel.

Romans 11: 25-27, Isaiah 59:20-21, Isaiah 27:9,  Jeremiah 31:33-34, Hebrews 8:8-12, 10:16-17.

Replacement Theology. Part-One.

The sad thing today with so many Christians is that they have started to move away from what the scriptures of the Bible is really saying. They have started to change and ignore whole sections of it.  They either call these old fashioned ideas or the opinions of men, the writers. One doctrine which has plagued the Christian Church for the length of its history, is that of excluding the Jews. First the book of Hebrews was not accepted into the cannon, then through various campaign’s the Crusades, inquisition, the Martin Luther reformation, Russian pogroms and finally the Nazi Holocaust. Christians have made excuses over the Jews like saying they are Christ killers. But it was Jesus the King of the Jews, the Jewish Messiah who said himself that he was going to the cross.  Luke 18:31-34, Matthew 20:17-19, Mark 10:31-34.

Now today with the establishment of the State of Israel, some mislead people are trying again to attack the Jews with replacement theology and various political movements in support of the Palestinian cause, which says Israel has no rights to the land God promised to return the Jews to. Matthew 5:17-18, All these beliefs are contradictory to the Bible. You either believe the bible or you don’t.

Jesus was never political

Today there seems to be a new movement and stance in the British Churches in relation to Israel, especially in light of the Palestinian peoples and their rights to the land. Some Christian clergy have joined the ‘Christ at the road block‘ movement.

But the reality of Jesus was, he was moral, being a perfect man fulfilling the Law without sin. He criticized the religious leaders of the day, but in no way did he ever get involved politically with the Roman rulers.

The Jewish people wanted Jesus to be their King and to restore the Kingdom of Israel, but he came as the suffering servant to die and take the sins of man on his body to redeem those who would believe in Him.
