(Toronto, Canada) — Last week, the Jerusalem Post reported that the spokesperson for Hamas’ armed al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Ubaida, called for an escalation across all fronts.
“In a video aired by Al Jazeera TV, Abu Ubaida praised Iran’s attack on Israel on April 13…” JPost explained. “He also called for an escalation in the West Bank and Jordan calling it ‘one of the most important Arab fronts.'”
The Hamas spokesman further stated: “We call on the Jordanian people to step up their actions and raise their voices. The government of the occupation is stalling in reaching a hostages swap deal and is trying to obstruct efforts by the mediators to reach a ceasefire agreement.”
I can assure you that it’s not Israel that’s stalling or obstructing efforts to reach a ceasefire. There already was a ceasefire on October 6th of last year, and Hamas broke it. Stop with the lies!
Qatar also expressed its concern that all part parties should “show seriousness” to allow such efforts to succeed. Again, it’s not Israel that is to blame. It’s those who hate Israel are to blame. Hamas is a terrorist organization whose goal in its Charter is to “obliterate” the Jewish State.
The same is true with Iran. They openly call for Israel to be wiped off the face of the map, and they are determined to develop a nuclear weapon to carry that out.
As for Qatar, they, too, show what they think of Israel.
“We do not surrender, but rather we win, or we die. This is not the end. Rather, you will have to fight the next generation, yes, the next generation,” Essa Bin Ahmad Al-Nassr, a member of the Qatari legislative Shura council, said, paraphrasing a quote from Omar Mukhtar, an Islamic revolutionary hailed by Muslims as a “symbol of resistance.”
“The Al-Aqsa flood operation [October 7th massacre] that began is only a prelude to the elimination of the Jews,” he continued. “The second is in the land and the beginning, Allah willing, of the end of their state after their gathering in the land of Palestine.”
“As Allah almighty said, and we said after him to the children on Israel, ‘Inhabit the land, so when the promise of the hereafter [death] comes, we brought you as a group,'” the council member said referencing a verse in the Quran. “Here they are coming and gathering in the land of Mahshar, in the land of Palestine, the battlefield of the next generation.”
Seriously? The Al-Aqsa flood, that is, the October 7th Massacre, was only the prelude to the elimination of the Jews and Israel?
That’s demonic, and in their warped, sick minds, they try to convince the world that Israel is the one obstructing efforts to reach a ceasefire. This evil that is being perpetrated in the media has fueled antisemitism worldwide.
Antisemitism is running rampant in US college campuses and here in our Canadian universities. Yet, our political leaders in our countries are virtually silent on the matter. They refuse to shut down this demonic hate towards the Jewish people, and it’s getting worse and worse. In fact, it’s starting to look an awful lot like Nazi Germany did in the 1930s.
What in the world is going on? I’ll tell you.
If I didn’t have God’s Word to bring clarity to the days in which we live, I wouldn’t be able to make any sense of it. It should be obvious to anyone with a functioning brain that this is a battle between good and evil, right and dead wrong. There are no two sides here, friends.
I believe we’re living in a Romans 1 world. Verses 16 to 32 of this chapter speak of God giving people over to a “reprobate mind.” They don’t have the ability to think clearly. They don’t have the ability to use common sense.
Romans 1:28 – “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;”
We are living in the last days, as Paul wrote to Timothy (2 Tim 3:1-5). There is a real spiritual battle going on, and Satan is the “prince of the power of the air,” working over time in the “sons of disobedience” (Eph. 2:1-3, 6:12).
Therefore, we need to be praying hard for our countries and for our leaders to wake up and restore our land to what we once knew as normal only a few years ago. We need to be praying that our leaders will put an end to this violence that is being carried out against Israel and the Jewish people. I’m afraid that if we don’t turn this around quickly, God, true to His Word in Genesis 12:3, will not bring blessings to our countries. Rather, God will bring a curse with His judgment and some seriously hard times for this world.
As Bible-believing Christians, I implore you to stand, love, and support Israel and the Jewish people in their darkest hour since the Holocaust. I want to remind you that God is taking note, and we will all have to give an account one day as we see Jesus, the king of Kings, the king of the Jews, face to face.
May the words of Asaf in Psalm 83 be a warning to the world and to those who hate God’s chosen people:
Psalm 83:13-18 – “O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like the chaff before the wind! As the fire burns the woods, And as the flame sets the mountains on fire, So pursue them with Your tempest, And frighten them with Your storm. Fill their faces with shame, That they may seek Your name, O Lord. Let them be confounded and dismayed forever; Yes, let them be put to shame and perish, That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, Are the Most High over all the earth.”
