God is sending judgment upon the nations because of the attempt to take Abraham's land from his descendants. The wrath of God will be poured out upon the inhabitants of this world during the time of Great Tribulation spoken of by Daniel, Jesus, and John. However, that does not impede God from rendering His judgment upon wicked and rebellious people.
The
World Council of Churches is one such example of rebellion against the will of
God. The World Council of Churches (WCC) is a collective of “347 churches,
denominations and church fellowships in more than 110 countries and
territories.” In recent years, the World Council of Churches has been an
advocate for “an end to the illegal occupation of Palestine” by Israel. “It's
time to end Israel's illegal occupation of territory; it is time for the political
rights of the Palestinian people to be recognized and implemented;”
The
World Council of Churches is a product of the United Nations. Both
organizations are on the wrong side of God’s Word for Israel. We know that
Israel will possess the land God gave to Abraham. God’s Word promises the
restoration of the nation of Israel and that invariably includes the land God
gave to Abraham. We don't know the conflict and warfare that will occur before
that time. But, God began the restoration of Israel to the Holy Land in 1948
and they will remain there under the covering of God’s Covenant with them.
Through
our spiritual eyes, we can see the approaching consummation of all things! Civil
authority is being surrendered to the powers of darkness. Individual liberties
are being destroyed and control relegated to the powers that be...governments,
local, state, national and international. The stage is set and the players are
moving into place. One world government, one world religion, and the restoration
of Israel are glaring indicators of where we are on God’s timetable. We can not
change what is coming, only our response to it. The sin of the world hastens
the judgment of God. Let the watchman on the wall cry aloud as the enemy
approaches. In doing so he will save himself and all that will hear him. Repent
and return to the ways of the Lord!
Jeremiah 4:18, "Your lifestyles and your actions have brought these things on you. This is your calamity—it is indeed bitter, for it has reached your heart!" ISV
