What is the land of Israel that the sons of Israel will Inherit?
(Eze_28:25) Thus
says Adonai LORD; And I will gather the
house of Israel from out of the nations of which they were dispersed there. And
I will be sanctified among them before the peoples, and the nations. And they
shall dwell upon their land which I gave my servant Jacob.
(Jer 30:3) For behold, days come, says the LORD, and I will return the
resettlement of my people Israel and Judah, said the LORD. And I will return
them into the land which I gave to their fathers, and they will dominate it.
These are
some of the many verses offered to show that at some point in time GOD will pick us up from all the nations we
are scattered into and transpose us to the present-day nation, in the middle
east called Israel. This can easily be disproved by another single verse in the
Bible.
But before we get into that, it is very important to say this: The sons of
Israel today do not respect the Word Of GOD. They don’t often read the bible.
Most of them will rather read a novel, watch TV, or see some silly movie rather
than reading the Bible. They would rather adhere to or make affiliation to
their favorite Hebrew Israelites organizations or the various self-proclaimed
prophets and teachers. Israel seems to have been a common malady that
apparently has infected us through the generations.
(Hosea 4:1) Hear the word of the LORD, O sons of Israel! For
there is a case to the LORD against the ones dwelling the land, because there
is no truth, nor mercy, nor full knowledge of God upon the land. (Hosea 4:6) My
people are likened as ones not having knowledge. For since you thrusted away
full knowledge, even I will thrust you away so as to not officiate as priest to
me. And as you forgot the laws of your God, I shall forget your children.
This is a shame, considering the Bible is written by us, to us, and for us. They
depend on the Christian church and doctrines developed by their church fathers.
They may modify some of it to fit their own doctrines. But you just cannot get
truth out of lies. But how would you know if you do not inquire from the Bible.
I would like to challenge every sons of Israel to read the Bible from Genesis
to revelation at least once per year. So, when one says that “GOD made a
salvation plan for Israel and for gentiles” you will be able to answer. The
fact is the Bible is one cohesive whole, written to and about and for the sons
of Israel. It is about GOD’s covenant with our forefathers, and our hope of
salvation. In the new testament, the MESSIAH, YESHUA was a son of Israel and HE
had only Sons of Israel as disciples. The gentiles like to throw out random
verses, usually out of context, from the new testament to ostensibly show that
GOD made a salvation plan for them. But you Israel if you read the old
testament you will quickly put them to shame.
GOD distinguishes between good and bad Israel
A quick
question Israel. Why are you not living in the land of Canaan that GOD gave to
your forefathers? (I am talking about that entity over there in the middle east
called Israel)
The answer
is that GOD threw them out of the land HE gave their forefathers, because they
were wicked! But wait! you are descendants of those wicked people, so what does
that makes you. Yes, Israel you are still wicked today. (Psalms 73:1) O how good is God to Israel, to the ones
straight in the heart. GOD is good to Israel, but this verse clearly
defines the ones of Israel that HE is good to: “the ones straight in
heart”. GOD will not be good to the ones NOT straight in heart. GOD differentiate
between the two Israel. They have different eternal destinies. The saved inherit the Israel that GOD
promises but the unsaved share the same destiny as gentiles. The above is the first thing you must
think about before where GOD is placing Israel at the end of the world. (Rom_9:27) Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number
of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: This
suggest that not all Israelites will be returned to the land Canaan, now
inhabited by gentiles(“Israel”)
Just in case
you missed the point above, or you are still not convinced that GOD is
referencing saved and unsaved Israel above. Let us look through some more
references to hammer the point home. clearly shows two Israel: The saved who
will enter the assembly of the LORD and the unsaved who will not. (Micah 2: 12) Jacob shall be completely gathered with all his
people: I will surely receive the remnant of Israel; I will cause them to
return together, as sheep in trouble, as a flock in the midst of their fold:
they shall rush forth from among men through the breach made before them, But on the other hand, the unsaved Israelites think like this: (Micah 3:11) Her leaders judge with bribes, and her priests
answer with a wage, and her prophets are divining with silver; but upon the
LORD they rest upon, saying, is not the
LORD among us? In no way shall bad things come upon us. They believe that good will still come for them. So
even if you believe that GOD is referencing the land today that they call Israel,
then know for sure most of you will not get to go there. The point I am making
is that the land that we will inherit will be inhabited by good (saved) Israel
only! Let us amplify this point a little further.
Ezekiel
34:2-29 (talking to the sons of Israel in the context
of Israel’s conditions of today. And we know this is speaking in the context of
today’s reality from Verse 13 “And I will lead them from out of the nations,
and I will gather them from the regions, and I will bring them into their land,
and I will graze them upon the mountains of Israel, and in the ravines, and in
every dwelling of the land” This is judgment day! Notice here that GOD is not talking
about animals here, HE is talking about men.
(Verse 2)O son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel!
Prophesy, and say to the shepherds! Thus says the Lord the LORD; O shepherds of
Israel, shall the
shepherds graze themselves? Do not the shepherds graze the sheep? (Verse 3) Behold, you devour the
milk, and the wool you put around yourselves, and the robust you slay, and my
sheep you do not graze. (Verse 4) The ones being
weak you strengthen not, and the ill having a sickness you rejuvenated not, and
the broken you did not bind up, and the one wandering you did not turn back,
and the lost you did not seek after, and the strongG2478 you worked in trouble.
(Verse 5) And my sheep were scattered on account
of there not being shepherds; and my sheep became for a thing devoured by all
the wild beasts of the field. (Verse 6) And
my sheep were scattered in every mountain, and upon every high hill; and they
were scattered upon the face of all the earth; and there was not one seeking
after them, nor turning them back. (Verse 7) On account of this, O shepherds, hear the word of the LORD! (Verse
8) As I live, says the Lord the LORD, Assuredly instead
my sheep became for plunder, and my sheep became for a thing to be devoured by
all the wild beasts of the plain, because of there not being any shepherds; and
the shepherds sought not after my sheep; and the shepherds grazed themselves,
but my sheep they grazed not. (Verse 9) On
account of this, O shepherds, hear the word of the LORD! (Verse 10) Thus says the Lord the LORD; Behold, I am against the
shepherds, and I will require my sheep from out of their hands. And I will turn
them away to not tend my sheep, and the shepherds shall not graze them any
longer. And I shall rescue my sheep from out of their mouth, and they will not
be themselves any longer for a thing devoured. (Verse 11) For thus says the Lord the LORD; Behold, I shall seek after
my sheep, and I shall visit them. (Verse 12) As
if the shepherd seeks his flock in the day whenever there might be dimness and
cloud in the midst of his sheep having been parted, so shall I seek after my
sheep. And I will drive them away from every place of which they were scattered
there, in the day of cloud and dimness. (Verse 13) And I will lead them from out of the nations, and I will
gather them from the regions, and I will bring them into their land, and I will
graze them upon the mountains of Israel, and in the ravines, and in every
dwelling of the land.
*** The
shepherds represent all those who lead and abuse Israel, Politicians, clergy,
government leaders, their entertainers, those who generate wealth and social
status for themselves and use their lives as encouragement to those who want to
enter their degeneracy. It is interesting that GOD has not once referenced
gentiles so far since we would expect that since HE is referencing end times.
He is only talking about Israel and their leaders. Also take notice of the word
(strong G2478) starting in verse 4. It occurs 27 times in the KJV and has a negative
connotation: forcible,
boisterous, mighty, powerful, strong (-er, man) These are the bad Israel “the strong you worked in
trouble” A breakdown of this phrase show the following key words
theG3588 strongG2478 forcible, boisterous, mighty, powerful, strong (-er,
man) you workedG2716 (to
fashion, i.e. render one fit for a thing) in trouble.G3449(a hard and difficult labour, toil,
travail, hardship, distress) The strong are the ones being encouraged or made
fit for sinfulness and trouble with GOD***
(Verse 15) I will graze my sheep, and I will rest them. Thus
says the Lord the LORD (Verse 16) The
lost I will seek, and the one wandering I will return, and the one being broken
I will bind, and the faltering I will strengthen, and the
strong I will guard; and I will graze them with equity.
***Notice
how the verse starts with all the good intentions for the good sheep, but when
HE mentions the strong, the intention is different: “the strong I will guard;
and I will graze them with equity” “the strongG2478 I will guard;G5442(to
guard or watch, have an eye upon: lest he escape) and I will graze them with
equity.G2917 (the punishment with which one is sentenced, Judgment)”***
(Verse 17) And you, my sheep, thus says the Lord the LORD;
Behold, I separate between sheep and sheep, rams and he-goats. And is it not
enough to you that you fed on the good pasture, and the rest of your pasture
you trampled with your feet? and the place of water you drank, and the rest
with your feet you disturbed? And my sheep fed on the things trampled by your
feet; and they drank the disturbed water under your feet.
***Here GOD
is using other terms for the unsaved. Rams
and he-goats who are unsaved Israelites***
20 On account of this, thus says the Lord the LORD; Behold, I
separate between the strong sheep and weak.
***Since
they are mixed together GOD will have to separate them, The strong (unsaved) and
the weak (saved)***
21 With the sides and your shoulders you pushed away, and with
your horns you gored, and all the faltering you squeezed out, until of which
time you thrust them outside! And I will deliver my sheep, and no way should
they be yet for plunder; and I will judge between ram to ram.
***that is
the word “plunder” that is the reality today. The wicked ones of
Israel just used the others as plunder just like the gentiles. GOD is declaring
judgment among the rams***
23 And I shall raise up for them one shepherd; and he will tend
them as my servant David. He will tend them, and he will be their shepherd.
***this
SHEPHERD could only be a reference to CHRIST. HE will be our SHEPHERD***
24 And I the LORD will be to them for God, and my servant David
in the midst of them a ruler. I the LORD have spoken.
***even
though this is reference to judgment day, you notice that the LORD is
referencing only Israel! so why no reference to gentiles?! They appear in verse
25 below ***
25 And I will ordain with them a covenant of peace. And I will
obliterate the ferocious wild beasts from the land; and they shall dwell in the
wilderness, and shall sleep in the forests.
***25
And I will ordain with them (the saved ones)a covenant of peace. And I will obliterate
G853 (to snatch out of sight, to put out of view, to make unseen, to cause
to vanish away, to destroy, consume) the ferocious G4190 ( in an
ethical sense: evil wicked, bad) wild beasts G2342 (metaphorically a
brutal, bestial man, savage, ferocious) from the land; and they shall dwell in
the wilderness G2048,(solitary, lonely, desolate, uninhabited) and shall
sleep in the forests.***
27 And the trees, the ones in the plain will yield their fruit,
and the earth shall yield her strength.
And they shall dwell upon their land in a hope of peace. And they shall know
that I am the LORD in my breaking the chain of their yoke; and I will rescue
them from out of the hand of the ones reducing them to slavery.
***If you
are not convinced of verse 25, then this verse 27 will. Now we hear about the
gentiles, the nations, near the end of the chapter as (the ones reducing us to
slavery)***
28 And they shall not be any longer for plunder by the nations.
And the wild beasts of the land no longer in any way shall eat them. And they
shall dwell in hope, and there will not be one frightening them.
***The
gentiles are referenced again in negative light(not be any longer for plunder
by the nations)! No more wild beast-sinners! the gentiles to terrify us***
29 And I will raise up to them a plant of peace, and no longer
shall they be ones being destroyed by hunger upon the land; and in no way they
shall bear any longer the scorning of nations.
***don’t the
gentiles just love to scorn and abuse us now!! It will be over soon! I have
shown above that not all Israel will be going to the land where our forefathers
are. Only the saved ones. But the bad ones go to the same fate that awaits the
gentiles. GOD rarely reference the gentiles in the bible unless in a negative
sense. ***
Israel is a people not a geographical entity
Israel is a
people, Not a geographical location. We must see Israel as GOD sees us– a
unique biological phenotype. We are
accurately described in the Bible as the sons of Israel who twelve son are
derived from the ancient patriarch called Jacob. (Gen_46:5) And Jacob rose up from the Well of the Oath. And the sons of
Israel took up Jacob their father, and the belongings, and their wives upon the
wagons which Joseph sent to carry him. (Gen_32:28) And he said to him, your name shall not any longer be called
Jacob, but Israel will be your name; for you grew in strength against God, and
against mighty men. Sometimes in the
Bible, GOD uses the two word interchangeably. We are referred to as Sons of
Israel most of the time. At this juncture of their existence they never had a
homeland. They were desert dwellers
Gen
28:13 And the LORD stayed upon it. And he
said, I am the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. Do not fear!
The land of which you sleep upon it, to you I will give it, and to your seed. GOD First made this promise to his grandfather
Abraham and his father Isaac.(Jos_21:43) And LORD gave to Israel all the land which he swore by an
oath to give their fathers; and they inherited it, and dwelt in it. This
was the land of Canaan that GOD gave to the sons of Israel. So literally the
land of Canaan is now the land that the sons of Israel now lives– The land of
Israel—but the people are still Israel and the land still the land of Canaan.
Jos
23:14 But I run today the way as also all the
ones upon the earth. And you shall know in your whole heart, and in your whole
soul, that one word failed not from all of the good words of which the LORD
your God spoke concerning you; all the things being related to us — he did not
dissent from them one word. Joshua their leader at the time is proving that GOD had not
slacken on a single promise HE gave to their forefathers. Joshua telling this
to them with the fore knowledge that at some point they would have become complete
reprobates. (Jos 23:15) And it will be in
which manner all the good things come unto you, which the LORD your God spoke
unto you; so the LORD will bring upon you all the bad things, until he should
utterly destroy you from this good land, of which the LORD your God gave to you, (Lev_26:43)
And the land shall be abandoned of them. Then the land
shall favorably receive her Sabbaths, in her being made desolate because of
them. And they shall accept the of their
own lawlessness, because they overlooked my judgments, and they loathed my
orders in their soul (Jer 17:4) And
you shall be forsaken from your inheritance which I gave to you. And I will you
make to serve to your enemies in the land which you knew not. For you kindled
fire in my wrath; unto the eon it shall blaze.
This verse
defines the status of Israel on the earth today. (Gen_48:
4) And he said to me, Behold, I will increase
you, and I will multiply you, and I will make you into a gathering of nations.
And I will give to you this land, and to your seed after you, for an eternal
possession. Israel no
longer domicile in the land of Canaan are still Israel scattered among the
gentiles. With the same unique phenotype inherited from their father (Jacob or
Israel)with a single mutation which some people believe to be the tribe of
mostly Dan which is identified as the Falasha of Ethiopia. The gentiles have hundreds of mutations, but
Israel apparently only has one. I am not a scientist, so I do not intend to
interject too much science here. This is the information I receive from
science. They are defined by GOD as Israel as scattered among the nations. So
that is what GOD is referencing when he speaks about Israel or the “land of
Israel” this is a people representation, not to be confused with a geographical
representation, because present day Israel does not have a contiguous state.
Again, they are scattered among the nation as our GOD desired. Today they can
be found in Ghana, Jamaica, Iran, India, USA, South Africa, England, Turkey,
Haiti, Nigeria and among most of the countries of the world. So that entity
over there in the middle east is NOT the land of Israel. But they call is
Israel. As the proverbs say, “you can call your nose a doorpost, but where will
you hang your shirt”. Interestingly this is how false interpretation arise for
those of Israel who do not read the bible carefully. I was watching a YouTube
video once and the author referenced the verse (Eze_38:16) And you shall ascend against my people Israel as a cloud to
cover the land. At the latter end of the days it will be. And I will lead you
against my land, that all the nations shall know me, in my being sanctified
among you before them. He was contending that the gentiles were
coming against the country called Israel using the above verse. His claim was
that will be because we have a few Israelites living there as we are scattered in
most nations of the world. But if the gentiles come against the place called
Israel then they would be coming against themselves. The Bible couldn’t be
teaching that. The Bible is teaching that the nations will come against Israel(the
sons of Israel) in the last day, in the lands where they dwell, including in
the land called the state of Israel where a few of Israel lives. We see this
played out as we speak.
“During a
period between May 24 to May 25, 1991, The Israeli launched a covert military
operation to airlift Ethiopian Jews to Israel from . Code named Operation
Solomon it consisted of Non-stop flights of 35 Israeli aircraft, including
Israeli Air Force. they apparently transported 14,325 Ethiopian Jews to Israel.”
World Jewish organizations and Israel were concerned about the well-being of
the Ethiopian Jews, known as Beta Israel, residing in Ethiopia. Most of
these Jews were living in the Gondar region of the Ethiopian Highlands.
These are not my words but quotes from various sources. As far as I am
concerned this was really a propaganda ploy by the Jewish state. Firstly, they
paid a bribe to the military establishment in the area and had permission to
“kidnap” these people.
Fast forward
to 2013 to a Forbes magazine report: “Israel Forcibly Injected African Immigrants with Birth Control,
Report Claims” the
article goes on to say “This weekend, a report revealing that African women
immigrating to Israel were subjected to mandatory contraceptive injections,
effectively amounting to forced sterilization made global headlines. Some
130,000 Ethiopians, most of them Jewish, live in Israel. The community
experiences higher poverty and unemployment rates than the rest of the country’s Jewish population. In the past decade, the birth rate among
Ethiopian-Israelis has declined by at least 20 percent. Advocacy groups now claim this decline is the
result of a birth control regimen forced upon Ethiopian immigrant women.” These
women are the same Beta Israel that was kidnapped in 1991-proof that the Jewish
state never had any good intentions when they kidnapped them for propaganda
purposes.
Another
incident in July of 2019, where white Jewish police murdered a young man from
the same community. A report in the Los Angeles Times July 2 2019 states: “Reporting
from Jerusalem — The shooting death of Solomon Teka, a young Israeli
man of Ethiopian descent, by an off-duty police officer has sparked protests
across the country, modeled in part on the Black Lives Matter movement in the
United States. Teka, who was unarmed and who recently turned 18, was shot and
killed Sunday night in Haifa’s Kiryat Haim suburb, in northern Israel, while
hanging out with friends in a playground. His family claims he was murdered”. This
incidence mirrors the incidents common in any American city. These are examples
of what the bible is speaking of when it talks about “you shall ascend
against my people Israel/I will lead you against my land”. Israel, A lot of
this is coming your way soon as we come closer to the end times.
Ignoring apparent Contradictions whenever we study the Bible
Another important thing that impact our
understanding of the scriptures is our manner of dealing with apparent
contradictions in the bible. At some point, we believe we have established
truth on a certain topic. If later we run into an obvious contradiction to that
truth, we do not investigate the problem further. We hurriedly cover over or
ignore the new information and plough on ahead. We think there may have been an
error, or it is something that GOD failed to show us. We do not have the
mindset that GOD’s word is absolutely infallible. Technically that means that
it is impossible for there to be any error(assuming it is the original
document)
At some
point the people holding the belief that GOD will one day pick them up and
transport them to the Jewish state in the middle east must have at some point
read scriptures such as:
2Pe_3:7 But the present
heavens and the earth, the one of his word, are treasured up for fire being
kept for a day of judgment and destruction of impious men.
2Pe_3:10 But shall come the
day of the Lord as a thief in the night, in which the heavens by a loud noise
shall pass away, and the elements being destroyed by fire shall be loosed; and
the earth and the works in it shall be incinerated.
2Pe_3:12 expecting and
hastening the arrival of the day of God, by which the heavens being set on fire
shall be loosed, and the elements being destroyed by fire shall melt away?
If these
scriptures above are true, then it means that GOD will transport us to this Jewish
state one day but then HE is going to burn us up with the entire world with us
soon after that!. That would be a great tragedy. But no worry, these people have
some other alibis they make up for themselves not understanding these scriptures.
They will throw out certain scriptures such as
Isa_45:17 But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an
everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without
end. Notice the last
part of the verse? This is a KJV interpretation which would be contextually
incorrect because it is rendered in other “translations” as: Apostolic Bible
Polyglot (Isa_45:17) Israel is delivered by the LORD with an eternal deliverance;
they shall not be ashamed, nor should they feel remorse unto the eon still. The Brenton (Isa_45:17) Israel is saved in the Lord with an eternal salvation: you
shall not be confounded, and you shall not be ashamed for ever and ever. The
Hebraic Root Bible (Isa_45:17) Israel is saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation:
they shall not be ashamed nor confounded for evermore. First Century Aramaic Bible (Isa_45:17) Israel is saved in YAHWEH with everlasting
salvation (Y’shua*). You shall not be ashamed nor disgraced to the forevers of eternity. Other than the contemporary translations which came from the KJV (some are
worse in certain cases) I have not found any genuine bibles to say “world
without end”. But this world must come to an end and the Bible repeats that
theme dozens of times. (Jud_1:7) As Sodom and
Gomorrah, and the cities around them likened to these in manner given
themselves to fornication, and having gone after other flesh, are situated as
an example, undergoing punishment of eternal fire. (Mat 24:3) And in his sitting down upon the mount of olives, there came
forward to him the disciples in private, saying, Tell us when these things will
be, and what is the sign of your arrival, and the completion of the age? (Mat 24:14) And this good news of the kingdom shall be
proclaimed in the entire inhabitable world, for a testimony to all the ones
among the nations; and then shall come the end
Therefore,
the Bible never said or infer that this world will never end. In fact, it says
it will end and the heavens and earth will be recreated by the GOD who made it
in the first place. (Rev_21:5) And said the one
sitting upon the throne, Behold, I make all things new. And he says to me,
Write! for these words are true and trustworthy. That is why the Bible can make these statements (Isa
45:18) For thus says the LORD, the one making
the heaven, this God, the one introducing the earth and making it; he separated
it, he did not make it empty, but he shaped it to dwell in; I am the LORD, and
there is none beside. (Luk_18:30) Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and
in the world to come life everlasting. Israel you cannot get around being
burned in an hellacious fire if GOD was to take you back to the Jewish state in
the middle east. What a tragedy!
The Land That GOD Will Take Us To (only the ones that are saved)
I did show above
that GOD did indeed lead Israel to the promised land in Canaan. We know that
the land over there in the middle east called Israel was situated more or less
in the original land of Canaan that the Sons of Israel. But they rebelled
against HIM and refused to obey HIS commandments and were generally wicked even
above some of the gentiles that lived around them. At one-point GOD sent the
prophet Jerimiah to Israel to pronounce these words to them. This was prior to
them being destroyed and carried away into captivity.
Jer
17:20 And you shall say to them, Hear the word of
the LORD, O kings of Judah, and all Judea, and all Jerusalem! O ones entering
by these gates.
Jer
17:21 Thus says the LORD, Guard your souls, and
do not lift burdens on the day of the Sabbaths! and you should not carry in
through the gates of Jerusalem.
Jer
17:22 And do not bring forth burdens from out of
your residences on the day of the Sabbaths! And you shall not do any work.
Sanctify the day of the Sabbaths! as I gave charge to your fathers.
Jer
17:23 And they hearkened not, and leaned not
their ear. And they hardened their neck over their fathers to not hear me, and
to not take instruction.
Jer
17:24 And it will be, if you should hearken to
me, says the LORD, to not carry in burdens through the gates of this city in
the day of the Sabbaths, and to sanctify the day of the Sabbaths to not do any
work in it,
Jer
17:25 that there shall enter through the gates of
this city kings and rulers sitting upon the throne of David, and mounting upon
their chariots and horses, they and their rulers, the men of Judah, and the
ones dwelling in Jerusalem. And this city shall be settled into the eon.
Jer
17:26 And they shall come from out of the cities
of Judah, and round about Jerusalem, and from out of the land of Benjamin, and
from out of the plain, and from out of the mountain, and from out of the
country to the south, bringing whole burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and
incenses, and manna, and frankincense; bringing praise into the house of the
LORD.
Jer
17:27 And it will be if you should not hearken to
me to sanctify the day of the Sabbaths, to lift no burdens, and to not enter
through the gates of Jerusalem in the day of the Sabbaths; then I will kindle a
fire in her gates; and it shall devour the plazas of Jerusalem, and it shall
not be extinguished.
This should
have been easy. All they basically had to do was observed the Sabbath and not
do any work in it. But the city was not settled into the eons. That would be an
eternal city here on earth. Of course, GOD knew that they would not obey. GOD
is setting forth a principle that if their fore parents and themselves had only
obeyed HIS voice, then HE would let their physical land of Israel would
continue on this earth into eternity. He would have to have some mechanism to
protect them eternal fire(HE can do that quite easily) there would be kings and
rulers still sitting upon the throne of David, and riding upon their chariots
and horses, they and their rulers, the men of Judah, and the ones dwelling in
Jerusalem. And they shall still come
from out of the cities of Judah, and around Jerusalem, and from the land of
Benjamin; from out of the plain, and from out of the mountain, and from out of
the country to the south, bringing whole burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and
incenses, and manna, and frankincense; bringing praise into the house of the
LORD. And this would be the manner of the city into the eon. And OH My didn’t they
just love to bring burnt offerings and sacrifices! Let the record show that
they didn’t obey and the city of Jerusalem their capital never continued into
the eon. So why do you expect GOD to bring you back there for your continued
wickedness.
Even today
the Sons of Israel think the same way that their forefathers thought. They
think they still have a right of inheritance to the land of Canaan that they
call Israel today. They are saying they have a right of inheritance to the land
on account of their association with Abraham (Isaac and Jacob) This is about
the same that the Sons of Israel think today, making they believe that GOD
would one day return them back to the land to live. But listen to the Word Of
God in this discourse:
Eze_33:24 O son of man, the ones inhabiting the places being
made desolate upon the land of Israel, speaking they say, Abraham was one, and
he held down the land; and we, we are many; the land was given to us for a
possession.
Eze 33:25On account of this say to them! Thus says
the Lord the LORD; Since you chew upon food with blood, and lift your eyes unto
your abominations, and you pour out blood — then shall you inherit the
land?
Eze 33:26 And you stood with your broadswords, you
did loathsome things, and each tainted the wife of his neighbor — then shall
you inherit the land?
These men of
Israel is referring to the land of Israel in Canaan, where they think is given
to them and their ancestors forever! But the word of GOD overtook them. Because
here we are now scattered all over the world and Edom is settled in that land. Their
sins have nullified that covenant. They no longer had an inheritance in the
land. That was not what GOD gave us for an eternal possession, when HE said
this: (Gen_48: 4) And he said to me, Behold, I
will increase you, and I will multiply you, and I will make you into a
gathering of nations. And I will give to you this land, and to your seed after
you, for an eternal possession This eternal possession will still have to exist and is still habitable
after this world ends and completely destroyed by fire.
Now let us re-visit the scriptures that purportedly reference our return to the land of Israel
(Eze_28:25) Thus
says Adonai LORD; And I will gather the
house of Israel from out of the nations of which they were dispersed there. And
I will be sanctified among them before the peoples, and the nations. And they
shall dwell upon their land which I gave my servant Jacob.
(Jer 30:3) For behold, days come, says the LORD, and I will
return the resettlement of my people Israel and Judah, said the LORD. And I
will return them into the land which I gave to their fathers, and they will
dominate it.
No big deal
here, these verses and others are obviously referring to the end time(judgment
day) when GOD will return our captivity. And it is referencing an eternal land that
obviously our forefathers now inhabit because it was given to them. Now compare
them with the verse below: It is referencing the same land given to our
forefathers.
Gen
48:4 And he said to me, Behold, I will increase
you, and I will multiply you, and I will make you into a
gathering of nations. And I will give to you this land(G1093), and to your
seed after you, for an eternal(G166) possession(G2697)
GOD
appeared to Jacob while he was in the land of Canaan and promised him that HE
would give him and his seed “this land for an eternal possession” Notice
the progression of the conversation:
- ”I will increase you” ….I will multiply your seed enormously. They were multiplied in the land
of Canaan and there after
- “I
will make you into a gathering of nations”…Israel did not become a gathering of nations when they
came into the land of Canaan. They became a gathering of nations during the dispersion
as they are now
- “and
I will give you this land”…If this was the land of Canaan, this was not true for Jacob, neither his
father Isaac nor his grandfather Abraham. They never came into the land with
them. This is obviously referencing the eternal Israel
- “And
to your seed after you , for an eternal possession”…so here you have it in summary. Jacob
and his descendants will be given the eternal land of Israel to possess to
eternity
If GOD was referring
to the piece of real estate over in the land where the Jewish nation now
resides, then why did GOD forsake HIS own word, for the nation of Israel does
not reside there anymore. How can they reside there for eternity when they are
not even residing there now? As a matter
of fact, GOD is the one who evicted them from this piece of real estate on the
earth. And while you are digesting that, consider where is Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob today…Yes they are not in the Jewish land or living among the nations. but
in the eternal possession that GOD promised to them. Otherwise called the
Kingdom of the GOD or the Kingdom of the Heavens
So which
land is GOD referring to? It is Land G1093 (the ground, the earth as a standing place, the earth
as a whole) refers to the earth or the entire world in this context. Which would
include the heavens. Remember “the meek
shall inherit the earth“. This is what the saved of Jacob
seed will inherit. Not the piece of real estate in Israel of the middle east,
but everything. The entire earth an eternal G166 (forever, everlasting) possession G2697 (occupancy)
Mat
5:3 Blessed are the poor to the one in spirit,
for of them is the kingdom of the heavens.
Mat
5:5 Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit
the earth.
Mat
5:8 Blessed are the clean in heart, for they
shall see God.
Mat
5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall
be called sons of God.
Mat
5:10 Blessed are the ones having been persecuted
because of righteousness, for of them is the kingdom of the heavens.
Mat
5:11 Blessed are you whenever they should berate
you, and persecute, and shall say every wicked saying against you in lying,
because of me.
Mat
5:12 Rejoice and exult, for your wage is great in
the heavens! for so they persecuted the prophets before you.
The obverse
is also true for those of the Sons of Israel that are unsaved—(Ezekiel
13:8-9) On account of this, say! Thus says Adonai
the LORD; Because your words are false, and your divinations vain, on account
of this, behold, I am against you, says Adonai the LORD. And I will stretch out my hand against the prophets, of the
ones seeing false visions, and the ones declaring vain things in instruction of
my people. They will not be, nor shall they be written among the writing of the
house of Israel, and into the land of Israel they shall not enter; and they
shall know that I am Adonai the LORD. Ezekiel was prophesying to
Israel in the physical representation of the kingdom of heaven(Zion) here on
earth, Israel. And yet GOD is saying that these false prophets will not be among
the writing of the house of Israel (the book of life) nor enter the land of
Israel.
1Co
2:9 But as it has been written, That which eye
saw not, and ear heard not, and into the heart of man ascended not, which God
prepared to the ones loving him. Fear not Israel and obey your GOD. Your reward will be
great. You may be wondering what will happen to the unsaved Sons of Israel and
the gentiles…well that is the subject of another exciting essay I will be coming
out with soon.
