Islamic Movement Gaining Traction Globally

It is interesting to note the developments in Egypt regarding the "Arab Spring".  I have been listening to your standard NPR National Public Radio as well as some other Christian Commentary on radio regarding the situation on the ground in Egypt regarding it's goovernment and elections and such. 

The primary observation is simply this...The Muslim Brotherhood which represents the more extreme implementation of Islamic Sharia Law is infiltrating the government of Egypt.  it might not even be called infiltration as the majority population of the country supports the Muslim Brotherhood.  They are making quick headway into government control through fast elections which favor the Muslim Brotherhood.  Why? Because the Muslim Brotherhood is the most organized segment of the population.

Now...I will bring you to remember what was said on this blog when the whole Egypt thing was going down...at the beginning of the Arab Spring.

I quote from a previous article regarding the rise of an Islamic Bloc of nations that will have the power to take over and control policy in the Middle East.

All of this is tied to the final 7 years of history referred to in the prophetic book of Daniel. Chapter 9. 

In order for the Orthodox Jewish Community to build a third temple in Jerusalem, there must be a solution for keeping the peace in Jerusalem and the Middle East...and an allowance by the peace keeping authority for a temple to be built on the temple mount. 

The Coalescing of the Last Days Scenario Right Before Our Eyes

"However, before all this happens...there must be a method by which to enforce an international peace treaty that brings this "false peace" to Israel and allows the Jews to rebuild their temple. What better method could there be than a unified Islamic bloc of nations ruled by the greatly expected Islamic Caliphate (anti-christ), which has his seat in the revived Turkish Ottoman Empire, which is the terrible fourth kingdom of Daniel's visions, and the eighth (revived) kingdom which is of the seventh...who "once was, now is not, and is yet to come"  So in conclusion...we are now witnessing the events that will coalesce into the last days scenario described all throughout the bible."

Why is this important?

There is a growing understanding of just how quickly Islamic Populations are growing in countries throughout the world.  Particularly in Europe (France and Great Britain), more extreme Islamic societies are cropping and settling in to dominate politics by sheer numbers.  When this happens...Sharia Law gets implemented on the minority.

If you go to the article I linked above you can read from Joel Peterson about the coalition of nations that will dominate in the future to come against Israel and particularly Jerusalem at which time the Jewish People suffer greatly and the third Jewish Temple is desolated by the antichrist.

In particular Joel Peterson makes it clear that all the nations mentioned in Ezekiel by name represent currently Islamic dominated areas. While we are not seeing an all out attack on Israel yet...and we won't until the political power shifts in the region to anti-western or the rest of the world (majority of nations) is overcome by Islamic power through population politics and previously democratic nations fall to the coarse statues of Sharia Law...this is exactly what we would expect from scripture.

Prophecy in Daniel, Ezekiel, Matthew 24, Luke 19 and other scriptural references indicates that the nations coming against Israel and Jerusalem in the last days will be Islamic...and supported by the rest of the world, thereby enforcing by international strength whatever policies are apt to fit the political situation in the Middle East. 

This is why it is so important to understand that the "Arab Spring" is more like an "Islamic Sharia WInter"...in fact it is just the beginning of winter as more and more extreme Sharia Law Islamic organizations gain strength, such as the Islamic Brotherhood in Egypt, and pro-Islamic political parties in France and Great Britain.  

It may not be ready to happen right this moment...but most people are not even looking past today...because they are just trying to survive. 

While those in power take it upon themselves to conspire at the highest levels of government and leadership, mostly for the purpose of continued financial gain, but also led by the darker intricacies of the satanic Islamic religion, and enforced by majority rule, we see freedom slipping away from once democratic countries to be replaced with the cruelties of Islamic society. 

Not all Arabs are Muslim...and not all Muslims are extremists.  But the same is true for Christians.  All who call themselves Christian are not necessarily a good representation of Christianity...but if you provoke America for example to war, the people (who call themselves Christian) will get behind a just war to vanquish the evil of their enemies (whether real or perceived), following the leadership of those who call on such high and lofty goals in the name of GOD.

If someone in an Islamic culture led by Islamic leaders is told that America "the great satan" is the enemy which must be vanquished, the majority of Islamic people will support what they understand to be a "jihad" or "holy war".  And so it continues to work against humanity on this planet as a whole, while a select few of those who manipulate events such as wars between countries gain immense wealth from the economy of continued war. 

But...now we are talking merely about the politics of men...what really needs to be understood is where such politics lead the entire world from a spiritual and prophetic perspective.  Those who are manipulating the global economy of war are probably most likely doing it to consolidate power and money...period.  

Men in power form alliances between countries for the establishment of solidarity and the extension of their policies for the sake of enriching themselves. But while this love of money and power is continually driving the select financial elite to manipulate, they are themselves being manipulated by an evil greater then themselves.  And to what end?  

Satan...wants to dominate the world.  He is already in it.  His greatest desire is to pull people away from the true God, Jesus Christ, and from the salvation of their souls for eternity.  This is a purely selfish goal driven by a desire for destruction and vengeance against the authority of Almighty God in heaven. 

But is Satan really in control? No.

God is using all things in this world to prove His point and distinguish for us the difference between good and evil.  While the price may be great in terms of human souls, it is a necessary function of good versus evil to create points of reference for the holiness of God. Else how would we know that God is holy? 

God gave us a choice and still gives us a choice every day...to accept Him or reject Him.  It is up to us to make the choice.

In the end how we get there does not matter...but for now it DOES matter because those who love God and pay attention to His Word which is both the written Word of God, and the Logos who is Jesus Christ the Word made flesh should be watching and waiting for the fulfillment of prophecy and the blessed hope which is the appearing of our great God, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ...who will rule and reign over the nations with a rod of iron. 

Why does this matter?  It matters because we want as many people as possible to have understanding and respond to the call of salvation.  All are called but few are chosen.  It is our job to correctly interpret the scriptures in respect to prophetic fulfillment which leads to our blessed hope and the coming of God's Kingdom on earth. 

It is also our job to sound the warning to those who are in darkness and pull them out of the fire of hell.

The Word of God and it's prophetic fulfillment is a unique and unduplicatable way for God to communicate to His creation in linear time from outside of time itself.  God resides in eternity where beginning, middle, and end have already taken place...He knows the end from the beginning and He is able to tell us how it will happen...and these prophetic messages were recorded in scripture for our warning.

Let us not sleep as some do...those who sleep, sleep in the night...and those who are drunk, drink in the night.  Those who are not watching will fall for everything in this world.  But we are of the day...and of the light.  Watch therefore.  

We may yet be decades down the road before the political infrastructure is in place to control a one world economy, and before an Islamic dominated global population controls global policy, but it is a trend we can watch and observe knowing that because it is in scripture we will see it come to pass.

All signs seem to point to these things coming to pass in this lifetime.  

But as Jesus said, "You will hear of wars, rumors of wars and revolutions. All these things must come to pass but the end is not yet."

Are you prepared, spiritually to give your temporal life in exchange for eternal life?

Are you prepared physically for the hard times that are coming when the economy is rearranged and your money becomes worthless?

Are you prepared to make a decision to survive and protect your family when hard times come?

What does that look like for you?
