God forbade Israel to have allies and to trust in military might.
Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, who rely on horses, who trust in the multitude of their chariots and in the great strength of their horsemen, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel, or seek help from the LORD. Isaiah 31:1
Woe to those who "Stand with Israel" against God.
Then he said to me, "This is what the LORD says to Zerubbabel: It is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the LORD of Heaven's Armies. Zechariah 4:6
Woe to those who "Stand with Israel" in her disobedience. Woe to those whose theology makes Palestinains jealous to have land instead of making Israel jealous to have Christ.
The Dispensationalism cult is responsible for all the evil in the middle East.
How is it that all of a sudden the OT applies in their belief system?
I read the various posts those based in their belief system and shake my head.
While they and theirs are busy pointing fingers at those millions deceived by writers of what are nothing more than pop culture books supposedly based on "Dispensationalism," true, they and theirs fail to see the wool being consistently pulled over their own eyes by those pop culture writers of their Replacementist belief system.
Look at the sense of the post on that link, together with the words of those who support it - it reads as out of touch as those who get their "understanding all about God, and Dispensationalism and his favorite chosen people" from what is obviously their version of the Replacementist school's own, latest celebrity writers.
Get it through your heads Replacementists - you and yours are also being manipulated out of your [hopefully] hard earned money by your own celebrity writers due to your belief system as much as all those out there who get their "Dispensationalism" from their version of "books about."
Get back to THE Book!
It is my understanding that with Israel's
temporary fall, Romans 11:25-29, Israel as a nation was concluded Lo Ami - not My People - and will continue to be so "until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in," and is thus, comprised of individuals each in need of putting their faith in the Blood of Christ.
It is further my understanding that with that nation's
temporary, corporate fall, any promise in connection with
that nation as one nation under God, was also
temporarily put on hold, and will not apply until
after this Mystery age - Romans 11:25-29.
While I'm busy attempting to pry both side's eyes open here - you see that phrase I just used there - "one nation under God" - its actual nation is
not the U.S., not the nation our forefathers Deduced through their Replacementist Premise even as they knowingly butchered and allowed the butchering of countless of those who were here and who they continue to oppress for the land, to this very day.
"Grandpa, why are the Cowboys and Indians always killing one another in those Westerns?"
Well, grandson, I don't really like looking at that, as it exposes the duplicity of my own belief system but... well, um... Here it is, um. don't tell anyone, okay...
See, son, in the OT, Chronicles 8:14 is a passage there that, well, that many of us espouse as, well, as part of, of, well you know, of our Replacementist view, you know, about, um, "Our God inspired country."
See son, its a passage we have chosen to ignore the actual sense of, together with its actual Malachi 3 & 4 participants.
Its how the cowboys and Indians killing each other all the time came to be, and why God caused us to win, you know, um, ur, given our Replacementist forefathers - you know, that believe like us.
See, son, you know that line in TV Westerns about "them heathen" that the good guys use against the Indians, well, see, that is actually Hollywood being accurate by accident as to just how widespread our Replacementist views once were - I'm proud to say, son, that til that Darby fella came along an unleashed what he did, we were once the ruling majority - I mean look at all this land we were able to murder others out of - I mean, that God allowed "them heathen" to lose... sorry, son, kinda got a moment of clarity there.
Anyway, here's that passage we um, even now still mis-appropriate - why, heck - even most of them there dispensational folks - most them get their notions about their system from "books about" too - even most of them still buy into this part of our Replacementist view..
Hmmm, maybe we can make a comeback after all - where's my book writing program...
Here son, for your eyes only...
2 Chronicles 7:
13. If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;
14. If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Cowboys and Indians - here son, here is what all that passage was actually about - you known, under the Law back then - Deuteronomy 11:
16. Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
17. And then the LORD's wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you.
18. Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
19. And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
20. And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:
21. That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
22. For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
23. Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
See that verse 23 there, well, passages like that one gave us the Replacementist right to practically wipe them people out who were here first!
But don't tell anyone, son - promise. Cause right now we're going on about them fool Dispensationalists - right now, they're repeating a similar version to that with Israel over there and all that stuff going on in that there Middle East place - you know, cause most of them "Dispys," too, well, most them also get their "Bible" not from The Bible, but, well you know, from their version of our celebrity authors.
Still, son, I hope you don't grow up just like me...
And the cat's n the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy as to the Replacementist tune...
On all these "books about" your money don't spend
For only the Bible's your friend,
