Bible Prophecy - Hated by All Nations

copyright Millie Plastaras 10/16/2001

Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted,
and shall kill you;, and ye shall be hated of all
nations for my name's sake.
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray
one another.
Matthew 24:9-10

In one of the books I have been reading about
prophecy the author said that Jesus warned of
a hatred for the Jews that would signal his return.
There is more hatred for Jews and christians in
the world now, than at any time ever before.
There is an increasing amount of violence against
the Jews since the time of Hitler, that has escalated
to many Arab nations, Russia and some other
predominately muslim countries.

When conservative christians try to stand up
for the Jewish people, or for Bibical views
we are labeled as fundamentalist extremists, we
are called enemies of world peace because
we will not modify our beliefs and deny Christ
to please man. We are hated by all men for His
sake, and this is in accordance with the word
for the last days.

Blessed are you, when men shall revile you, and persecute
you, and shall say all manner of evil things against you
falsely for my sake.
Rejoice and be exceeding glad, for great is your reward
in heaven; for so persecuted they the prophets which
were before you.

Matthew 5:11-12

The state of hatred will extend from all nations
into families, they will turn on each other, with
hardness of heart, and hurt each other, love no
longer being natural or pure, but hearts
will become selfish and cruel, full of anger and revenge.
During tribulation times people who find God,
(because people will be able to become Christians
during the tribulation), those people will pay for it with
their very life. It will be dangerous to even mention
the name of God, and food, water , medicine,
electricity, and medical care will only be given
to those who take the mark of the Beast.
Those who take the mark of the beast can never
enter the kingdom of God.
So people who want to find favor with the government
will turn their neighbors in, their parents, relatives and
even friends, and watch them be put to death for
their beliefs.

More christians and Jews have been persecuted in
this century than in all of history, and it is increasing
daily at an alarming rate. Over 6 million Jews were
brutally murdered during world war 2, and millions
of Christians have been killed in Africa in this
last decade for their belief in Christ.

Indeed in many countries now, it is a crime to
be a christian, punishable by death. We see
this on the news almost daily now.
We can expect this to increase.

After the rapture, there will be no safe place on
earth. The Holy spirit will be lifted from the earth,
and evil will prevail everyplace. 2nd Thessalonians 2:7b.
Every evil thing ever imagined will come about, and life will become
a torture to those who have to live through these days.

As we watch the news each night we are seeing prophecy
being fulfilled right before our very eyes.
It is amazing to the bible scholars who have made it
their life work to study Bible prophecy to see all these
many things unfold right before their eyes. Quickly,
and so violently.

It is not a time for fear, it is a time for
looking up, for this is a signal of the return of
Jesus Christ to pick up his saints and take
us out of the way of harm.

Are you ready for that journey my friend?
Is your heart right with God?

Don't be left behind.

remember
only one life
will soon be past
Only what is done
For Christ will last
