False Messiahs
It pains me to write this, because the West think that Jesus Christ will be coming again to save them. No, he will be coming again for the Jewish race, to save them from permanent destruction and annihilation.
The signs are clear:
Why Have We Got It So Wrong?
Simple, the Christian Church became the state religion of Rome. This whole Messiah thing was a way to win over the world to the idea that the Emperor of Rome was their true god on earth. The destruction of Jerusalem was the proof that he was stronger than Yahweh in 70 AD. The Jews were scattered throughout the world and only with the creation of the State of Israel were the sheep gathered together again. May 14, 1948 marks the return of the people to their home and native land. Everything stems from that point forward. We are witnessing, with the Israel/Hamas war, a resurgence of hatred for the Jews. Oh, dear. Bible prophecy has come back to haunt us all.
World Messiahs
Every race and religion has a Messiah figure. The fact that Christians have co-opted a Jewish one is part of the mix-up. It’s like being a Jehovah’s Witness, we are pseudo JWs. Maybe we need to re-examine our motives when it comes to the End of the Age. Everyone, and his uncle, wants it all to end. Really?
The New Jerusalem
