To change text size - click 'View' on toolbar Democracy, Muslim style WorldNetDaily by Hal Lindsey Jan 27, 2006 Hal Lindsey is willing to tell the truth about Islam, spoken to the shame of the self-proclaiming 'Christian' houses of this world. [No matter what the author of this site or Hal Lindsey has to say [Hal Lindsey, on a grand scale, is a better writer than I am] - the Scriptures have ALL Authority - so, single out the Scriptures, and pay the most attention to them]
Hal Lindsey says... As you can imagine, everyone is asking me my take on the significance of the Hamas victory in "Democratic elections" held in the West Bank and Gaza. Let me put this into the larger context of my view on the situation. I view all of this from the vantage point of God's prophecies concerning His miraculous restoration of Israel as a nation in the land He unconditionally promised them "in the last days."
God predicted the following things through the prophet Ezekiel, in stages: Stage 1 The physical restoration of the Israelites to nationhood in their ancient home land from their worldwide dispersion: Jerusalem is above
Important to understand -There is a resurrection of the damned:
Stage 2 This restored nation of Israel will be attacked in "the last days" by a coalition of the surrounding nations (that are all Muslim with Persia preeminent) that will be armed and led by Russia:
Jer 46:10 For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates. [the Euphrates is a 'river of time' Rev 9:14 Jer 51:63 And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, that thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates. Jer 51:64 And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Rev 17:5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. Jam 4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Luk 21:20 And when ye shall [physically] see [the physical] Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Mat 24:21 Then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. Joe 1:15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come. when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh... then shall be great tribulation for the whole world. Rev 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth [new world]: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. {no more peoples nations and tongues Isa 54:9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth {They died - without mercy; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. The true Church of God Mat 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Isa 11:16 And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt. Exd 14:22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters [peoples, nations and tongues] were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. {and Pharaoh peruses them - then the 'waters' come crashing down. Stage 3 After Israel's Messiah miraculously delivers them from utter destruction, they will recognize who He is and believe in Him:
The prophet Zechariah describes their conversion:
Mat 2:18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not. e PermissionsReadWriteExecuteUser? Zechariah 12:10 He already poured out His Spirit: Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant {already done] with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jer 31:33 This shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of
Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward
parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and
they shall be my people. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD. {All who are in the body of God They 'shall' - means it was to come. It came: 1Jo 2:27 But the anointing [The New Covenant] which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. Jhn 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Rom 8:9 Ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. Jhn 14:30 for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. He already poured out His Spirit. The Old Testament said that the time would come when we no longer need any man to teach us - and the New Testament says - we need no man to teach us. Hbr 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. There is only one time in Israel's history when Israel "pierced her God" ? it was when they rejected their Messiah, Yeshua Ha'Meshiach, and delivered Him to be crucified by the Romans. (I am not saying here that Israel alone is guilty for that. Since the Messiah died for the sins of all mankind, we are all equally guilty for His death.)
Mat 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. Isa 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them. The Temple of God is not physical: 1Cr 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 1Cr 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you? which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 1Cr 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. {the way to defile the temple - is by what comes out of the mouth: Mat 12:37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. Eph 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour. Mic 1:2 Hear, all ye people; hearken, O earth, and all that therein is: and let the Lord GOD be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple. which temple ye are} 1Cr 3:17 Psa 149:6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged Sword in their hand; Psa 149:9 To execute upon them the judgment [already] written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD. Jer 1:15 For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the LORD; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah. Jer 1:16 And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken Me, and have burned incense [prayers] unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands {their own teachings]. Zec 6:15 And they that are far off [in time, from that time] shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God. 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2Cr 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Mat 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works [Scriptures rightly divided], and glorify your Father which is in heaven. This is the work of the Temple of God. All are commanded to take part. Now to the main point of my understanding of these prophecies. According to God's prophecies ? that relate to these very times we live in ? once Israel is restored as a nation from their worldwide dispersion, they will never again be destroyed as a nation. Israel will go through the greatest calamities of their history, but God will not allow them to be destroyed and scattered again. The whole context of Ezekiel chapters 36 through 39 promises this. I analyzed the disaster the Oslo Peace Accords triggered, with its even more catastrophic offspring, the Roadmap to Peace. I surmised that unless Israel soon chooses a leader that will be strong enough to fight off foreign intervention, refuse to give into terrorists and deal in strength against those who vow that they will wipe Israel off the map, they will be destroyed.
And the stench that is called "right to self-determination" is nothing else - but another name for Murder. And that body called the UN - accepted it. Exd 15:14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina. {song of Moses} the saints 'sing' this song To execute upon them the judgment [already] written: Psa 149:9 And they sing the song of the Lamb: Mar 13:14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation {desolate - without life - without the Son - Palestine denies the Son], STANDING WHERE IT OUGHT NOT Because God already condemned Palestine - and the name Israel belongs to God - not men But when ye shall see the abomination....standing where it ought not... Mat 24:21 Then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. Isa 14:31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times. Why fight to build that which God already said He is going to destroy? These truths are the 'stoning' that causes death: Lev 24:16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD [The name Israel is a name that belongs to God], he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be {Key words] put to death.Jer 51:57 They shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts. Deu 32:39 See now that I, even I, am He, and there is no god with Me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of My hand. Psa 89:48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Murderers are already condemned Rom 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumbling Stone and Rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 1Pe 2:8 And a Stone of stumbling, and a Rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. Which self-professing 'Christian' house have you heard singing the song of Moses? Eph 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour. Isa 28:16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. 1Pe 2:8 A Stone of stumbling, and a Rock of offence... 1Pe 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Lev 24:16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be put to death. Jer 51:57 They shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts. Deu 32:31 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges. {Taking lives they did not give, nor can give back] For there is: Ecc 3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; {into the resurrection of the righteous]
Mat 12:30 He that is not with Me - is against Me {there is no in-between]; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. 'are cast away' I know of only one leader in Israel who has the kind of understanding of Islam and the courage and strategy to deal with them. His name is Benyamin Netanyahu. This is why I sought and got an interview with him in early November while I was in Jerusalem.
In that interview, I asked him what would be his plan if elected prime minister again. His answer was awesome in its insight, clarity and wisdom. By the way, that interview is available on DVD from my website. It was the one I intended to show when I was cancelled at TBN. When I talked to knowledgeable people about Netanyahu getting elected, no one gave him a chance. My friend and astute news analyst Morris Beschloss thought it was virtually impossible. I said to him, "Just watch. I believe God will move events around so that 'Bibi' Netanyahu will be elected." He now believes along with me that this is a real probability. Two events changed the whole political landscape in Israel, not to mention the world's. First, Ariel Sharon had his tragic stroke. Second, Hamas was elected to power in a truly free "democratic election." In other words - Palestinians made it perfectly clear - that they are the true Islam. So why are non-Muslim leaders financially supporting a religion? This last event shocked even the most liberal-minded peacenik dreamer in Israel. {what else did they expect?] Now most of Israel realizes that the only hope to survive is to bring in a leader who will not give anything to "terrorists because he knows it only emboldens them to attack more and gives them power over the few Palestinians that might not want to use the jihad option."
It is my sincere prayer for Israel that they elect Mr. Netanyahu as their next prime minister. I can't see anyone else doing what needs to be done.
In the meantime, we Americans need to learn the lesson that all of the dictatorial rulers of Muslim countries know only too well. They are never foolish enough to allow a truly free, democratic election. These leaders know that if they did, most them would be voted out of power by the most radical elements of Islam. Just look at Algeria, Morocco ? and, yes, Saudi Arabia ? to name a few examples. Even Egypt exerts lots of pressure behind the scenes on their elections. 'Democracy' does not exist in Islam:
So America needs to learn a different solution for dealing with the Muslim world. Fight to set them free from the tyranny of Muslim leaders. Set them up in a democracy. Most of them will then use that "democratic freedom" to vote back in a radical fundamentalist and return to the severity of the Quran's Sharia Law. {Is this not so?] That is their religion. It is contrary to concepts of Western-style democracy.
