Read the Book

Since we are speculating on the involvement of YHWY in the survival and destiny of His people, why not read the books He wrote through His prophets; it's all articulated in amazing detail in black and white? What a radical idea. Everyone of the prophets address Israel's future. The outline and much detail are clear; there is no excuse for confusion. A diligent student of the Holy Scriptures doing due diligence will find answers to his questions. A

s God does not change and as he did not withold his plans from His "friend" Abraham, so he does not withold his plans from His friends today. While much of the nitty gritty of today seen through a soda straw, as it were, can be perplexing, keep the prophetic outline in view to make sense of the flux. My guess, and it is only a guess, is that God is using the weakness and flecklessness of the Israeli government to draw Israel's enemies into His fore ordained trap of Ezekiel Chapters 38 and 39. His expressed purpose is to glorify His name among His people and among the nations. The stage is being set up for the next act.
