Highway To Heaven
Prophecy has the characteristic of being for a specific time, and other times dived by times. For example, the prophecy that Israel would be gathered from all parts of the world was for a time, times, and dividing of times. It was for a time then, then again the prophecy for 1948, then will be gathered again after the Great Tribulation. That prophecy was divided among three times. But Israel had to come together as their own Nation, in combination with the development of the ten kingdoms of the New World Order, to confirm how near it is to the coming of the anti-Christ, then the Second Coming of Christ, which is soon! We must keep the oil of the Holy Spirit burning within us, as it is written, “Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning.” Only by accepting the atonement that Christ Jesus made for us on the Cross will we be filled with the oil and Light of the Holy Spirit. There is a highway to Heaven for those of us who make it through this world by the Spirit of Christ.
Now in 1967, another prophecy seems to have been fulfilled relating to a time, times, and dividing of times. Here’s the prophecy, “But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west (the West Bank literally); they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon (these three are literally Jordan) shall obey them. And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea.” When Israel reunited, they were a tight knit family which welcomed one another as they met in their new Nation of Israel. “They” are that reunited Israel. Edom, Moab, and Ammon are a part of Jordan and we know where Egypt is! In 1967 there was a 6 day war; this is what Wikipedia says about that; “Jordan signed a military pact with Egypt just before Israel launched a preemptive strike on Egypt to begin the Six-Day War in June 1967, where Jordan and Syria joined the war. The Arab states were defeated and Jordan lost control of the West Bank to Israel.” The Lord Jesus Christ is coming soon, so let’s keep the oil of the Holy Spirit burning within us, “Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning.” The Spirit of Christ Jesus is that Light and Oil and wants to abide in us! There is a highway to Heaven when we accept God’s redemption!
In the groupings of the ten kingdoms of the New World Order, it was most clearly the Arabian Federated Republics and the Union of African Republics (Includes Egypt) that was involved in coming against the Hebrew Land (Israel). As is obvious, there is still no peace as the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt is still disputed, and the Gaza Strip is still very much disputed! It’s obvious to see why this side of the world will be very much involved in the Great Tribulation and the Battle of Armageddon. When the Lord Jesus Christ comes again, He will put an end to the Battle of Armageddon, and the remnant of Israel will have a place in the Kingdom of God, the New Jerusalem! Likewise, our victory comes by accepting the atonement that the Savior Jesus Christ made for us on the Cross. There is a highway to heaven for the remnant of Believers, and for the remnant of Israel, who make sit through the hostilities of this world with the Light of the holy Spirit burning in us.
While the kingdom of this world will always have wars, we who are Citizens of the Kingdom of God fight a different type of war! “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12. On the Cross, Christ Jesus has already won the war against Satan, the anti-Christ and all spiritual wickedness! It is for us to put on the whole armor of God. “Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Pray Continually. Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.” Ephesians 6:13-18 KJV
Scripture Text
“The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim. But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod. 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.”
Isaiah 11:13-16 King James Version (KJV)
Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning.
Luke 12:35
