THE ROCKETS’ RED GLARE

  This month thousands of rockets have been hurled into Israel, and God destroyed most of them with defensive weapons. God made the anti-missile missiles hit their target and they evaporated into the first heaven. The attack is not between those on earth but is spiritual warfare as well! Paul wrote, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” (Ephes 6:12)

  Those missiles you see… they are guided missiles, not only by vision and heat seeking technologies but by demons and angels. You are witnessing spiritual warfare! It is not a battle between Palestinians and Jews, but about the forces of Satan against God. “Why,” you ask, “is this spiritual warfare?” Well, the answer lies in the Word of God:

6 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land. 7 And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, “Unto thy seed will I give this land:” and there builded he an altar unto the Lord, who appeared unto him. 8 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the Lord, and called upon the name of the Lord. (Gen 12:6-8)

  Ultimately, the Bible is the Last and Only Will and Testament of the Lord God. The preceding verses are what God Willed to Abram in the Covenant with Himself. God said, “Unto thy seed will I give this land.” Canaan’s land was Willed to Abram by God. The seed (progeny) of Cursed Canaan were merely tenants on Seth’s land until it was ready for probate, according to God’s conditions to His Will — “God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant” (Gen 9:27).

  Canaan served Shem until the time that Abram staked his claim to the land on which Canaan had “squatted” for centuries. “A squatter is a person who settles in or occupies a piece of property with no legal claim to the property. A squatter lives on a property to which they have no title, right, or lease” (Investopedia; “Squatter”). As such, Canaan served Shem, and here was Shem’s heirs staking claim to the same land. He brought the “title” to the land with him because the Covenant was the “land grant.”

  When land is granted, traditionally the claim is staked off to make it legal. Usually, a permanent feature would be used from which boundaries would be measured. The altar was erected between Bethel and Hai in what is now Israel.

  But Abram built three altars to God: one at Shechem, one at or near Bethel, and one at Hebron. Abram’s altars were on a straight line through Jerusalem. On that straight line was Mount Moriah where Abraham built another altar; some believe on Calvary itself. All those altars pointed to the “Cornerstone” (Jesus) where God would suffer death for mankind.

  All the fighting is not so much about the land, but about whose spirit wins out. It is about whether Lucifer will be King or God. Lucifer has his sights on God’s Kingdom with himself on the throne of God, to wit:

  For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. (Isa 14:13-14)

  The traditional site for Mount Moriah is the “Foundation Stone” on which the Temple was built: 

Then Solomon began to build the house of the Lord at Jerusalem in mount Moriah, where the Lord appeared unto David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. (2 Chron 3:1)

  There is now an Islamic dome over Mount Moriah, if that “Foundation Stone” is Araunah’s Threshing Floor and Mount Moriah. It is called, “The Dome of the Rock.”

  Who cares about that old rock? It is the “Foundation Stone!” It is the Axis Mundi, the Celestial Pole, and the Navel of the World. It is said to be where Adam was created. There is merely a fragment left of what it once was due to civilization. It may have once extended to Calvary, so that both viewpoints may be right.

  Again, why the warfare? It is the “door” to Heaven where angels ascend and descend. That place is where souls shall cross the “Sea of Glass.” [i] That “rock” is the vessel, or “Ark,” on which all mankind shall be saved. Why is it so important to the Muslims? That rock is where Muhammad ascended unto the heaven (sic).

  Special care must be taken; the second heaven, according to the Book of Enoch, is where prisoners hang until the end of time. The Third Heaven has two compartments separated by a great gulf, according to Enoch. On one side of the Third Heaven is Hell and on the other side, Paradise. The story of Lazarus and the rich man supports that idea: Speaking to Lazarus in his bosom in Paradise, Abraham said about the rich man in Hell, “Between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence” (Luke 16:26).

  Apparently Muhammad did go to the Third Heaven from that place, but not to Abraham’s bosom for comfort, but specifically to Satan’s bosom.

  Palestinians fight because Jerusalem is access to their “heaven” which should be recognized as Hell by Christians. “Coupling” does not exist in Paradise: “For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven” (Mat 22:30). “Marriage” is mere coupling. However, where faithful Muslims go after death is to the presence of 72 virgins. And what would they do with virgins? Couple in unholy marriage! Certainly, their afterlife is not life at all, but death where they will be isolated from everyone and continue their doctrine of hatred of things holy and righteous.

  How can this war be decided? By conversion. Only if they see the true God in Paradise (Jesus) shall the Palestinian “seeds” of Canaan be saved. They are the nemesis of both Jews and Christians, but God still has enough grace for them.

  What is in God’s Will for them? “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16). That includes Muslims who turn away from their false “Allah” and to Jehovah in the Flesh (Jesus).

  “Love” in the English translation is “agapaō” in the Greek. The best definition for that divine type of love is “good will” but only God (Theos; The Holy Trinity or Godhead) is good (agathos; excellent). That is not their “Allah” but the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and not the “god” of Abraham, through Ishmail nor Esau… and certainly not the “god” of Canaan!

  The Jews misunderstood God’s Will for them. It was not the land on which the Canaanites had squatted that was so important, but Paradise. Jerusalem means, “the foundation of peace.” It is where New Jerusalem shall be transported from the realm of Paradise to the realm of the Garden in Eden. They are fighting over Eden’s Garden and heavenly Paradise without even knowing for what they are fighting.

  The Jews are on the right side but for the wrong reasons. If only, they see Jesus, then the end is near. They can defeat the Palestinian Canaanites if only they see Jesus.

  The best example of that were the questioning Greeks, who said to Philip, “Sir, if we would see Jesus!” (John 12:21). That implies a willingness to see Jesus, not necessarily physically. If only the Jews and Canaanites would see Jesus.
