U.S. Strikes After Discovering Iran's IRREPLACEABLE Secret Hidden in Hormuz​


This appears to be an AI generated review of the first few days of the Iran war. I am posting it because it reminded me of this verse

Revelation 13:4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

We have arrived at AI warfare, he makes it very clear in this video the advantage that is giving the US and Israel.

You do realize that you are a follower of the pharisees and not a follower of Christ.....right?

Yes indeed.

They, the Pharisees, brought misery to the people and history repeats, ...the so called "Christians" who have attained high positions of power by scheming, lying and treachery...

.....and the support mechanism are those who rationalize and justify because they are gullible enough to believe this false eschatology.

Dispensationalism = Defeatism

Paul was clear.
You guys have no excuse, zero.

28 A man is not a Jew because he is one outwardly, nor is circumcision only outward and physical.
29 No, a man is a Jew because he is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man’s praise does not come from men, but from God.

Galatians 3:29 calling believers “Abraham’s seed”

OK, when I first believed in the Lord that was when I became "Abraham's seed"? What was I before my salvation moment?
 
A child of the flesh.
That is not all. I was chosen in Him prior to my salvation experience, I was predestinated unto being part of His family.

Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

Peter says something similar

1 Peter 1:2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.

God knew beforehand who would be the elect and this was based on the sanctification of the Spirit. The Spirit moved in our lives prior to our believing, our response revealed our heart and thus who would be the elect and obey the word of God and receive the washing away of our sins by the blood of Jesus.

There is absolutely no reason why this would not also apply to those descended from Abraham according to the flesh. Are they saved? No. But is the Holy Spirit moving in their lives by moving them to Israel? Yes, of course. Can God determine beforehand who will be the elect based on their response to the Holy Spirit? Yes.

Okay, so you are "Reformed" in your soteriology, good to know.

Stop trying to label me, I am simply a Bible believing Christian. I believe every word of God is inerrant and that any doctrine must align with every verse in the Bible. You cannot cherry pick a single verse and make a doctrine out of it.

Your signature line indicates you don't even understand the definition of This even though I have already shared it with you. This does not have to mean the generation at the time Jesus was speaking it can also refer to the context. The context is the fig tree after a long winter sprouting leaves in the spring time and letting us know summer is near. That is the context of "this generation". Likewise "these things" can refer to the temple being destroyed, that is one of the possible things. But it would also refer to the gospel being preached to all nations. He did not say "until one thing" takes place, but "all these things" takes place.

These verses prove God is omniscient and omnipresent. If you don't believe that then you do not believe in God. Man is made in the image and likeness of God, if we can determine days in advance when a storm is coming then God also can predict the future. We can diagnose diseases, we can predict what will happen if you put a coal fired power plant in a neighborhood, how many will get asthma, God can do the same, only better. Before the power is turned on in a house the power lines must be hooked up. A good electrician knows when the power will work before the switch is thrown, same with God. Your experience of salvation is when the switch is thrown, God foreknew that.

Predestinated/Predestined = prepared DESTINATION

Those terms always speak to FUTURE blessing, the FUTURE realization of promises, a FUTURE inheritance, glorification etc.

Ephesians 1:4 is stating the PLAN OF GOD from eternity past.

There is zero super-deterministic philosophy in these passages. The tragic error of the reformers is their failure to understand the Greek grammar rules and language nuances. They foolishly trotted out the English translational errors as fact.

For the UN. Israel becoming a nation was one of the leaves that the UN put forth. Israel returning to the land is when the fig tree was planted, you have to go another year to see their Knesset put forth leaves.

Second, Moses gives 70 and 80 years the length of a generation. We all know that a generation of people do not all die on either their 70th or 80th birthday. When you are talking in terms of decades the 70 year decade is 65 to 74 years, and the 80 year decade is 75 to 84 years.

75 years after the UN was formed in 1945 was 2020, the year of the pandemic. This is when the UN as a benevolent generation began to died.

75 years after Israel was planted and formed the knesset was 2023, the year that Hamas invaded. Again, no more "Mr. nice guy" from Israel. This generation ends in 2032, 2,000 years after Jesus was crucified which aligns perfectly with Hosea 6.

Believe it or not, my math works out to just about 2034 using that Hosea 6:1-2 reference point!
Pretty scary man.
