You Know How


You know how... God commanded the killing of entire nations in the Old Testament; and therefore has been the subject of harsh criticism against the Judeo-Christian values?
But were those nations fully "human" ?

The Bible says that " The Nephilim were on the earth on those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown " ~ Genesis 6:4 ~

When angels rebelled against God; being described in the Bible as Nephilim, sons of God, men of old, men of renown - they descend to earth, take women as wives and as they begin to procreate, the women give birth to a race of giants.

From non-biblical writings it has been said that when angels, beheld the daughters of men, they became enamoured of them, each choosing for himself a wife with whom they cohabited; teaching them sorcery, incantations and the dividing of roots and trees ( Book of Enoch chapter 7 - a non-biblical writing )

As evidence archaeologists have found giants remains.


And from biblical history is well known the confrontation between King David and Goliath



Furthermore, by knowing the history of Israel we know that the Israelites look like grasshoppers compared to the sons of Nephilim.

Terrified they wail before Moses saying " The land, through which we have gone to spy it out is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people that we saw in it are of great height. And there we saw the Nephilim ( the sons of Anak, who came from the Nephilim ), and we seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them. " ~ Numbers 13: 32-33 ~

Later in history these "giants" eventually were destroyed by the Israelites.

So,
Let's Lift our Heads High
Let's Remember:
Any nation or culture
That tried to mess around with us
Was destroyed - while we kept going!

Look at us,
The Nation from the Bible,
From Slavery in Egypt,
We are still here,
Speaking the same language!
Right here, right now.

" See You Next Year in Jerusalem. " What is means to be a Jew ~ From an Israeli woman ~

As a conclusion, the offspring of sexual relationships between the sons of God and daughters of men, the Nephilim ( fallen ones, giants ) were on earth in those days, before and even after the great flood in Noah's time.

God put an end to demons mating with humans by placing the demons who committed such an act of sin in the Abyss.

And the angels who did not stay within their own position of authority, but left their proper dwelling, he has kept in eternal chains under gloomy darkness until the judgment of the great day ~ Jude 1:6 ~

This would prevent any more demons from attempting such an act.

In 2 Peter we read that " For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment " ~ 2 Peter 2:4 ~

Obviously, not all of the demons are in "chain" today, only the group of demons who committed further grievous sin beyond the original fall.

Therefore dear friend don't hold grudge at God; definitely not before having a good knowledge how the events unfolded!

God is a Holy God!

It is also well noted that Canaanite culture reveals its moral wickedness! The Canaanites were brutal, aggressive people who engaged in bestiality, incest and even child sacrifice. It must be remembered that God gave the Canaanite people more than sufficient time to repent of their evil ways - over 400 years ~ Genesis 15:13-16 ~

And while Israel lived in Shittim, the people began to whore with the daughter of Moab. And these invited the people to the sacrifice of their gods ~ Numbers 25:1 ~

But from this wicked race, a woman named Ruth found delight in the God of Israel; being encouraged by her mother in law to return to her mother's house, her people and to her gods.
Ruth said, " Do not urge me to leave you or to return from following you. For where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God. " ~ Ruth 1:16 ~

God blessed Ruth; and from her marriage to Boaz she bore a son named Obed. The father of Jesse, and Jesse fathered David. Jesus Christ was born as a descendant of David ~ Matthew chapter 1 ~

May your soul yearning after the One True God, the God of Israel! In the name of Jesus be blessed.

Let go of demonic practices and follow the Light of the world.

Yourself

The most beautiful season of the year is soon approaching, the day we celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus. But before we get into the joy of Christ(mas) it would be good to recall first why Jesus was born.
 
 
 
Jesus break the chain of spiritual death. So much the sin is loved that in consequence of that the devil does not need to change his tactics on us. As he had whispered to Eve: you will be like God or did God really say " You shall not eat from the tree of life? "
 
My dear friend do not listen to the voice of Satan, that whispers " ye are gods " or did God really said " you'll go to hell if Jesus is not your Lord and Savior? "
 
 
STOP  self-worship & self-glory! Let the devil to deceive himself into thinking he can overthrow God's throne.
 
Pride led to Lucifer's fall. Rather than give God the glory for creating him so beautifully, Lucifer took pride in himself, thinking that he himself was responsible for his exalted status. Satan's rebellion resulted in God casting Lucifer from His presence and will, eventually, result in God condemning Lucifer to the lake of fire for all eternity.
~ S. Michael Houdmann ~
 
 
Before his fall, Lucifer was indeed a beautiful creature!
 
'You were the signet of perfection,
full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
You were in Eden, the garden of God;
every precious stone was your covering,
sardius, topaz, and diamond,
beryl, onyx and jasper,
sapphire, emerald and carbuncle;
and crafted in gold were your settings
and your engravings.
On the day that you were created
they were prepared.
You were an anointed guardian cherub.
I placed you; you were on the holy mountain of God;
In the midst of the stones of fire you walked.
You were blameless in your ways,
from the day you were created,
till unrighteousness was found in you.
In the abundance of your trade
you were filled with violence in your midst, and you sinned;
so I cast you as a profane thing from the mountain of God,
and I destroyed you, O guardian cherub,
from the midst of the stone of fire.
Your heart was proud because of your beauty;
you corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor.
~ Ezekiel 28:13-17 ~
 
 
The Fall of Lucifer
" How you are fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning!
How you were cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!
For you have said in your heart:
' I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the mount of the congregation
On the farthest sides of the north;
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High. '
Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,
To the lowest depths of the Pit.
~ Isaiah 14:12-15 ~
 
Don't follow Lucifer/Satan in Hell, a place of utter darkness, loneliness, terror, endless agonizing pain. NO HOPE, NO KIND WORDS, NO LOVE, NO LIGHT
 
Would you not rather be in the kingdom of God, the One who created you for His glory? All He wants from you is to LOVE HIM. Confess that you are a sinner!.. incapable of earning your way into God's good Grace.
Tell God that you believe that Jesus is His Son; died for you and by his blood we are saved; and rose from the dead to give you eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Repent, turn away from your sinful lifestyle, and ask Jesus to come into your heart and be your personal Lord and Savior.
 
He has given you a free will so that you can make your own choices. You must choose whom you will serve: Yourself or God.
 
If you are at enmity with Him here in the physical realm; do not care to know Him nor give Him glory; how can you imagine that in the spiritual realm you'll live to love Him and bring Him glory??

Fig Tree

The fig tree represents Israel as a nation!

The presence of a fruitful fig tree is a symbol of blessing and prosperity, while a fig tree without fruit is a symbol of Israel judgment and rejection.

The Lesson of the Fig Tree

" Now let the fig tree teach you its lesson: when its branches begin to sprout and leaves appear, you know that summer approaching. In the same way, when you see all these things, you are to know that the time is near, right at the door. Yes! I tell you that this people will certainly not pass away before all these things happen. " Jesus ~ Matthew 24:32-24 ~


On May 14, 1948 God's prophetic clock started ticking again, loudly.

In the book of Ezekiel; the Lord spoke: " Therefore say: ' This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will gather you from the nations and bring you back from the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you back the land of Israel again ' ~ Ezekiel 11:17 ~

Isaiah prophesied: " Who has ever heard of such things? Who has ever seen things like this? Can a country be born in a day or a nation be brought forth in a moment? Yet no sooner is Zion in labor than she gives birth to her children ~ Isaiah 66:8 ~

A nation born in one day, Israel ~ May 14th 1948 ~



Nevertheless, said the Lord, I will leave a remnant, some who will escape the sword among the nations, when you have been scattered throughout the countries. Those of you who escape will remember me among the nations where they have been exiled ~ Ezekiel 6:8-9 ~

In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the surviving remnant of his people ~ Isaiah 11:11 ~

Israel is a nation again in the land of their forefathers. The Word of God was fulfilled!

The Lord had said, " In Jerusalem I will put my Name " ~ 2 Kings 21:4 ~

And from the house of the Lord the Jews will say: " Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. From the house of the Lord we bless you " ~ Psalm 118:26 ~

For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ' Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord ' Jesus ~ Matthew 23:39 ~

The Lord's remnant are back again in the house of the Lord, from where they will call Jesus.


The Remnant of Israel

I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descent of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. God did not reject his people, who he foreknew. Don't you know that the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah - how he appealed to God against Israel: " Lord, they have killed your prophets and torn your altars; I am the only one left, and they are trying to kill me " ? And what was God's answer to him? " I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal. " So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace. And if by grace, then it cannot be based on works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace. ~ Romans 11:1-6 ~

 
All Israel Will Be Saved
 
I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in, and in this way all Israel will be saved. As it is written:
 
"The deliver will come from Zion;
he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.
And this is my covenant with them
when I take away their sins. "
 
As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies for your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs, for God's gift and his call are irrevocable. Just as you who were at one time disobedient to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience, so they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now receive mercy as a result of God's mercy to you. For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all. ~ Romans 11:25-32 ~

 
 
Salvation is absolutely free, the true gift of God in Jesus Christ, and our responsibility is to receive the gift by faith.
 
 
Are you a child of God?
