Hillary Clinton, Israel and Genesis 12
By Mike Mickey
As if those of us aware of the path the liberals in Washington are taking the United States down don't have enough to be concerned with already, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton essentially spat in the face of Almighty God today - for 43 minutes.
According to an Associated Press article, Clinton "delivered a stinging rebuke to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his government's announcement this week of new Jewish housing in east Jerusalem, calling it "a deeply negative signal" for the Mideast peace process and ties with the U.S."
This "stinging rebuke" comes fresh on the heels of Vice President Joe Biden's remarks made earlier this week condemning same, which he tried to smooth over by saying, "US President Barack Obama and myself know that the US has no better friend in the community of nations than Israel."
It's true that the United States of America has no better friend than Israel. The problem, however? The United States of America, at least as long as Team Obama remains in control of U.S. foreign policy, isn't going to reciprocate that friendship - a "deeply negative signal" we can rest assured God is receiving loud and clear as outlined in His Word.
In Genesis 12:3 we read that God made two promises to Abraham. He promised a blessing to those who would bless the nation of Israel and, secondly, to curse those who curse Israel.
Genesis 12:3: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
True Colors
Apparently, our liberal leaders in Washington are about as adept at picking up on God's affection for Israel as they are to picking up on the vast majority of Americans' disdain for Obamacare, the previous being of far greater concern than the latter but I digress.
While it's no secret that the Left could care less what God's Word has to say in relation to most anything, what Hillary Clinton did today was reprehensible no matter how anyone sane slices it. By formally tying the status of the United States' long-standing relationship with Israel to the Jewish nation's willingness to capitulate to the desires of its enemies, she showed the true colors of the Obama administration, not to mention the cancer that liberalism is to this once great nation - a cancer we need to begin 'treatment' of come November. (Pause here and release steam if necessary. I had to.)
Hillary Clinton would probably call today's 43 minutes of berating Israeli PM Netanyahu by telephone diplomacy. What would I call it? The United States cursing the nation of Israel, the thought of which makes my stomach churn! Why do I find her actions that upsetting? Genesis 12:3, of course! While I don't know what the consequences of today's attempt on the part of the Obama administration to intimidate Israel will be, He keeps His promises and that could get ugly. Having witnessed mere glimpses of the power God holds at His fingertips through the various natural disasters which have occurred globally in 2010, I'm less than enthused to think just how ugly quite frankly!
The Quartet to intervene?
Compounding an already bad situation for the United States, the AP article indicates that the Middle East Quartet — the U.S., European Union, United Nations and Russia — has "agreed to closely monitor developments in Jerusalem and to keep under consideration additional steps that may be required to address the situation on the ground.
What, dare I ask, does the Quartet consider to be "steps that may be required to address the situation on the ground"? That language is more than an eye opener in light of what bible prophecy tells us is eventually going to occur as a direct result of all this godless nonsense, namely the advent of the prophesied Antichrist!
Daniel 9:27: And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
In plainspeak, the prophesied Antichrist, a prince (or leader) of Roman descent, is going to confirm (or make strong) a covenant (or agreement) one week (7 years) in length between Israel and her enemies.
With the United States sounding more and more like the other three members of the Quartet in relation to its approach to bringing "peace and safety" to the Middle East, disaster in the form of the Tribulation Period is drawing closer, conditionally at the very least. Why do I state that? Because the Quartet's language above, in my humble opinion, tip toes close to a suggestion peace may ultimately have to be imposed on the two parties.
Remember, the prophesied Antichrist isn't going to bring peace to the Middle East alone. He is going to do so "with many". Could the Quartet be the "many" referred to in Daniel's prophecy? It's worth considering as a possibility at the very least.
Don't be rattled, be ready!
Hold onto Jesus Christ with all your might, Church! A rough ride may be in the making or, if we're blessed, a shout coming forth from the heavens in the near future so powerful it will wake the dead!
