God’s prophetic time piece, Israel, is a mess. Reeling from COVID, failure to form a government, and violence from terrorist-inspired “Palestinians,” Israel’s turmoil could be a sign that the prophecy clock is accelerated.

Each year around this time, the “Palestinians” start attacking Israel, and then when Israel defends itself with superior force, the “Palestinians” cry that Israel is racist, that it is attacking the poor, underserved “Palestinian” community.

The news media rarely mentions the billions of dollars that pours into the Palestinian Authority every year from various countries, and how that money funds terrorism against Israel. President Trump shut down America’s contribution. Joe Biden is reversing that policy.

Biden is opening up the American cash faucet once again for the Palestinians. Breitbart reports that the Biden Administration gave “the Palestinians commitments of hundreds of millions of US taxpayer dollars–likely in violation of the Taylor Force Act, which prevents US funding of the Palestinian Authority until it stops paying terrorists and their families.

Biden did not seek any concessions from the Palestinians in return for that funding–no new negotiations with Israel, no end to inciting hatred. Now the Biden administration is rewarding the Palestinians for the violence by calling on Israel to stop the clashes–as if Israel wanted any of this to happen.”

This, at the same time Turkey is fanning the flames of violence.

The Jerusalem Post Sunday reported, “Accusing Israel of being a “cruel” and “terrorist” state is part of Ankara’s desire to use the tensions in Jerusalem to boost Turkey’s image.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday, May 8 called Israel a cruel “terrorist” state, as Turkish media called to “free al-Aqsa” in Jerusalem, just like he reconsecrated the historic Church of Hagia Sophia as a mosque last year. Writing in Turkish, Erdogan said he “invite[s] the whole world, especially the Islamic countries, to take effective action against Israel’s attacks on al-Aqsa Mosque, Jerusalem and Palestinian homes.”

It is no secret that the terrorist organization Hamas is an object of diplomatic favor with Turkey, which allows Hamas to plan terrorist attacks from Turkey’s capital, Ankara.

The significance of these recent events is underscored by several end-time prophecies, but none more specific than the description of a colossal end of days battle found in Ezekiel 38 and 39.

In Ezekiel 38:3-8, the Lord says, “Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: and I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army…Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them…against the mountains of Israel…”

These areas mentioned in the verses of Ezekiel 38 coincide with modern Turkey, Iran, Sudan, Libya, and parts of Iraq, even Saudi Arabia.

Biden and Erdogan are moving the prophecy clock forward. Keep an eye on Turkey.

Watch and discern.

We are all appalled when we read stories that China is further persecuting Christians by removing Bible Apps and Christian WeChat public accounts, but are we frogs in the water when it comes to what is happening here in this country?

Here’s my point: There are very clear examples of Christian and Jew persecution by socialist and communist states, yet we do not put our foot down as a church here in this country when political cousins of the communists are attempting to do the same type of thing. The horrors that Christians are facing in places like China and communist-leaning nations are the result of first removing God from the public square and condemning Judeo-Christian beliefs as antiquated.

It starts with groupthink. Groupthink is defined as “a psychological phenomenon that occurs within a group of people in which the desire for harmony or conformity in the group results in an irrational or dysfunctional decision-making outcome. Cohesiveness, or the desire for cohesiveness, in a group may produce a tendency among its members to agree at all costs.” Is it not irrational when one says they are for free speech, but demand censorship of those who disagree? It is also irrational to say “hate doesn’t live here,” and at the same time vehemently oppose and openly ridicule people of the very faith whose God commands to love your neighbor as yourself.

When we are aghast at what China does to our brothers and sisters in the Lord, we are looking into the future if we do not put a stop to this leftist, communist agenda. The Communist Manifesto says, “But communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new basis.”

Daily Jot sources close to the Chinese government reveal in no uncertain terms that the Communist Chinese are not so much against religion, except when it replaces government as God. In China, these sources say, government is god. The Biden Administration and those politicians who support it are of the very same motivation that the government, not God, is the savior of the people.

In Nicaragua, the communists placed billboards all around the country with their “President” Daniel Ortega’s picture on it and the caption: “cristiano, socialista, solidario.” Communists invoke God to manipulate Christians into believing that Jesus was a socialist and, therefore, government is an instrument of God. This is based on Acts 4:32, “And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.”

In reality, the early disciples of Christ gave voluntarily out of the love of their hearts, not from the groupthink of communism where distribution of personal property is compulsory. So the next time you hear these leftists invoke religion as part of their justifications, think of our brethren in China, and look in the mirror.
