Today, which is Yom Kippur, a Jewish holy day, there was an Islamist attack outside synagogue in Manchester UK. A British man of Syrian descent, named "Jihad al-Shamie", rammed his car into a crowd of pedestrians, Jews who were about to go into the synagogue or who had just come out of the synagogue. After trying to run them over with his car, he got out of it and tried to stab as many individuals as possible. He was also wearing what appeared to be an explosive vest, but police later stated that the vest-bomb was not viable. When armed police arrived at the scene, the terrorist was shot dead. In all, two Jewish men were killed and four others were injured. But one of the two that was killed was hit by a bullet, so that means he was accidentally shot by police. Police also arrested three others connected to the terrorist.
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, already angry at British PM Keir Starmer for recognising a Palestinian state last week, took a swipe at Starmer for this terrorist attack saying, "As I warned at the UN, weakness in the face of terrorism only brings more terrorism. Only strength and unity can defeat it." Last week, at the UN, Netanyahu also remarked, "You can't appease your way out of Jihad, and you won't escape the Islamist storm by sacrificing Israel. To overcome that storm, you have to stand with Israel. But that’s not what you're doing."
But in fact, this is not what is going on at all. Islamic terrorism is now on the rise everywhere, and there is a lot of insanity and crime, simply because this is the time of the end - the last days before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
... the terror by night...
Psalms 91:5
The Bible prophesies that at the time of the end, Satan and his angels, some 50 million of them altogether, will be cast out of heaven. By the looks of things, this happened in the year 2014, and so they are now here on the earth causing all manner of psychotic behavior, as if there has been an outbreak of a zombie plague.
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Revelation 12:7-9
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
Revelation 12:12
In these last days, Islamic terrorism and antisemitism across the world are largely if not entirely due to Satan and other evil spirits. Remember, ISIS and even Hamas were all high on the drug captagon, a type of meth.
The Bible explains that the Devil despises Jews because Judah, and by extension Jacob, is the holy bloodline that gave birth to the Son of man Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel.
And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
Revelation 12:13
The Bible also says, for the sin of spiritual treachery, past and apparently present as well, Israel has been given to the curse and to reproaches.
Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me. Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
Isaiah 43:27-28
Did you know that the Hebrew word "alah" with one L instead of two means a "curse"?
And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse [lit. "alah"], and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them: Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the LORD, which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 29:18-19
In the eschatology of the religion of Islam, it is indeed a thing that all Muslims are to target and kill Jews. The hadith of the tree and the rock.
So, Islam will go berserk at some stage in the not too distant future, and there is no stopping this. At its height, it will be ten nations against one. During WW2, Hitler only had three. Not only that. There will be millions of demons in the mix as well, what scripture describes as "iron", a supernatural aspect to the war.
Surely now, you can see that military power alone, and coordinated diplomatic pressure, and even enormous tax-payer funded propaganda will not work. Surely now, the thing for Israel to do is to turn to God, along the lines of Psalms 50:7-15.
Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I am God, even thy God... Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High: And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
Psalms 50:7-15
I bring up Psalms 50, because today, there was a 5.0 magnitude earthquake in Turkiye (ref. 3).
Psalms 50:15's message from God to Jews generally, "call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me", is noteworthy and important. There are angels around that can do things, and angels outnumber demons two to one.
As for offering a thanksgiving or paying a tithe to God in these last days, at some point, Israel is to start the Malachi 3 thing, to have enough supplies for southern Israel to be able to last 3.5 years.
Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer [Satan] for your sakes...
Malachi 3:7-11
Also, in Malachi 3:9, you can see that Israel is currently "cursed", because most of Israel is still not right.
Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.
Malachi 3:9
So, Israel must do these things, and turn to God. And the sooner the better. If the government of Israel won't, then individual Jews must.
You say, wait, these victims were killed outside a synagogue on Yom Kippur. Yes, but even with Christians, how many Christians go to church on Christmas day or Easter merely to keep up appearances or for social reasons? How many that go truly have faith in God? With Jews in these last days, to be counted among the elect that will become holy, it is necessary to actually turn to God, and have faith that despite Satan and all the power that he wields in the world right now, God can save you.
Today, the state of Israel led by Benjamin Netanyahu is still looking to its own military power and even to Babylon for its security. Just last week, Netanyahu went to the White House after the fuss at the UN over a Palestinian state, but he was sort of humbled by his forced apology to Qatar, and also compelled to walk back some of the positions that he had taken - for instance, the involvement of the Palestinian Authority in any peace plan. He had to do these things because of Trump's latest 20 point plan to end the war in Gaza. This acquiescence of Netanyahu to Trump proves that Babylon's supposed protection is indeed the most important thing to him.
More often than not, Netanyahu cannot even bring himself to say that Islam is the enemy. Instead, he talks about "barbarism", whatever that means. Also, he only focuses on Iran, which is not even the half of it. And he gives guns to a gang of drug dealers in Gaza that was once linked to ISIS. And then, there was that anti-China rhetoric recently, as if life is not challenging enough and Israel needs more enemies. Israel cries antisemitism when others make false accusations against it, yet it is willing to do more or less the same to the likes of China.
Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
Psalms 50:19
Again, I bring up Psalms 50 only because of the recent 5.0 earthquake in Turkiye.
The actual enemy of Israel is the Devil, and in these last days the Devil is going to try to destroy the state of Israel using the religion of Islam. Hence the "Islamic State" part of the acronym ISIS. Also, the second S of ISIS either stands for Syria or else al-Sham. Notice, the perpetrator of this latest terrorist act was someone of Syrian descent named Jihad Al-Shamie.
