Jerusalem


The United States, in the person of Donald John Trump, on Dec. 6, 2017, was the first nation to recognize Jerusalem as "the eternal capital of the Jewish people." The United Nations voted today in protest.

The United Nations is an institution of "man" not God. Before its New York "Tower of Babel" is a wall with a God usurping misappropriation of the words of Isaiah:

"They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more."

The "united nations" conveniently truncated the contextual preface of the complete verse, i.e., "He shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people" (cf. Isaiah 2:4).

The Lord will bring this to completion, but not by a "union of nations", and only "after" this proclamation!
"Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles [Nations]; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: ... Let the heathen [Nations] be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about. [And]...
The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake" (cf. Joel 3:9-16).
