Intifada, Part III
Intifada, Part III (excerpts from ch 8 of "From Iraq to Armageddon," by Intrator)
What's It All About?
"The terrorist attacks of fundamentalist Islam are aimed at three targets primarily: the United States, Israel, and Christian missionaries. The United States is considered the most Christian nation on earth. Israel is the homeland of the Jews. Missionaries help spread the gospel in non-Christian areas. What is the common denominator?
The link between the three is the Second Coming. Yeshua will return soon to set up His kingdom on earth. The place where He will do this is Jerusalem.
Terrorist attacks are not normal; they are inhuman. An evil spiritual force propels them. Terrorist attacks are certainly demonically inspired. But what is the devil's goal in these attacks? What is the purpose of satan in focusing these attacks on Israel and the Christian world?
It is to try to stop the second coming of Yeshua. That's what the devil is afraid of. Why? Because at Yeshua's return, the devil will be thrown into the abyss. It is his end and he knows it.
Revelation 20:1-3
I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years;
And he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years were finished...
This is what scares satan. The primary concern of the devil is not that people will become believers in Yeshua and go to heaven. Let them go. He still rules on the earth. He is interested in protecting his turf on this planet. He wants to stop the return of Yeshua, which spells his defeat. All evil in the world is focused on one thing: stopping the Second Coming.
And the place on earth that Yeshua will return to is Israel. If there is no Israel, there is no Second Coming. Yeshua's return to Israel does not mean a return to an empty desert, but to a restored nation of Israel, a Jewish homeland after the two-thousand year punishment of exile.
He is not coming to an Islamic nation of "Palestine." He is coming back as King of the Jews to His people. From there He will reign. That's why above the cross it was written, "King of the Jews." Even while being crucified, Yeshua promised that He would return as King of the Jews. That sign above His head was a prophecy of His second coming. It was an eternal statement of His identity and authority.
Israel is the Holy Land not because it is the place where Jesus walked two millenia ago. It is the Holy Land because it is where He will walk in the Millenium when He returns. It is not a coincidence that bin Laden's primary reason for attacking America, as he has announced several times on video, is that the United States dares to support Israel's occupation of "Islamic Holy Land." The purpose of terrorism against America is to scare Americans away from standing with Israel.
If Israel is Islamic Holy Land, then Yeshua cannot come back, and the devil will not be destroyed. The devil is fighting to save his own skin. The connection between Yeshua and Jerusalem is what will destroy him. That is the purpose behind Islamic terror, just as it was the purpose behind the Nazi holocaust. If Israel is a secular atheist country that hates God, or a country controlled by a rabbinic Judaism that hates Yeshua, then the Second Coming is likewise thwarted."
