The Democratic party will roll out their 2012 platform this week and it will lack a key component that has been a part of both party platforms for decades...recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. You can read more about their platform in this article. This is not so surprising if you truly believe the Bible. The Bible tells us that in the last days all nations will turn on Israel and the main contention will be the status of her capital.
‘For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.’ Zechariah 14:2
I have mentioned before that the Scriptures make no mistake in declaring that Jerusalem is uniquely God's city.
"...I have chosen Jerusalem for my Name to be there...." 2 Chronicles 6:6
Jerusalem is not Allah's city, not Confucius, not Buddha or any other so called gods. The Bible declares that things will get very desperate in Israel and Jerusalem and then the Lord Jesus Himself will come to their rescue.
‘Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east,’ Zechariah 14:3-4
The storm clouds of war are gathering for the world and especially for Israel. Obama has ordered a pull back of troops in cooperation with Israel and it is more and more apparent that Israel will have to go it alone against Iran and Russia (see Ezekiel 38 and 39). It will all happen just as God has foretold us in His Word. At the end of the day the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will get all the glory for the rescue of Israel and the exaltation of Jerusalem as capital of His kingdom. We are at a pivotal time in history.
So the question must be asked again, "Have you trusted Jesus as your Savior"? There is still time to trust in what He did on the cross to be sufficient payment for your sin. I urge you with a special sense of duty to make that decision quickly. We are rushing toward the climax of history.
