After Messiah was cut-off and by wicked hands; crucified and slain, the wrath of God came upon the Jewish people, “to the uttermost”.
The overthrow of Jerusalem by Titus introduced a judgement incomparably more severe…the expatriation and dispersion, with complete subjection to the Gentile Powers.
The continuance and duration of this whole period of Judgement has its chronological limits assigned, just as the Babylonian captivity had. This last captivity, to the Gentile world, is indeed regarded and treated in scripture as a part merely of one great and long continued judgement of; 2520 years, the period of Seven Times, “the Times of the Gentiles”, including the appointed 1260 days-42 month-3 1/2 Times with the 30 & 45 years, “Timed Events” to last, not for seven decades but for 7 years of years, known as, the “Seven Times”. Tremendous national judgement for tremendous national crimes. This period is called by Jesus of Nazareth, “Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles”, until the Times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. Luke 21:24
This period lies at the base of all chronologic prophecies connected with the Gentile Age (Aion), the current age.
This, Gentile Age”, is the long period of history which began with the succession of the four great Gentile monarchies revealed to Nebuchadnezzar, which ends with the close of these 4 empires, while the next age begins with the manifestation of the Kingdom of God.
The “Times of the Gentiles is marked by Jewish loss of dominion and independence, by Jewish subjection to and suffering under Gentile conquerors, by the dispersion of the twelve tribes of Israel, and by the desolation of their land. It is the lifetime of the great four fold image of Gentile monarchy shown to Nebuchadnezzar, as well as the period of the four wild Beasts subsequently shown to the prophet. It is the joint duration of the rule of Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome.
It is the period during which supreme power on earth is by God Himself committed to Gentiles, rather than to Jews; as it is written of Nebuchadnezzar, “Thou Oh King art a king of kings: For the God of Heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power and strength, and glory. And wheresoever the children of men dwell… He hath made thee ruler over them all”.
THIS IS AN OBJECT LESSON FOR THOSE IN CAPTIVITY TO THE ISLAM OF THE 7TH CENTURY.
First, there is a book recently written by Mr. Hosein, which is accurate only to the point of quoting the prophets clearly, however the author failed to continue the thought of God as expressed by the Prophets, to the Nation of Israel; THERE IS TO BE A RESTORATION, a restoration as sure as there was a captivity. This Islamic writer wrote, “An Islamic View of the Destiny of Jerusalem; including a Muslim response to the September 11, attack on America”. The author has missed the final details of all the Biblical Prophets, especially, of the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation, thereby drinking the cup of God’s Wrath by not obeying all the, “Words of the Book”; as well as, not acting in accordance with all that is written there. Islam having made the nations drink of her maddening wine of adulteries, causing them to worship the Beast and his image; while receiving a mark on their forehead or hand. The three angels proclaimed . Judgement has come, Babylon has fallen and anyone who worships the Beast by the symbol of a mark on their head or hand, will drink God’s Fury, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His wrath. Revelation 14:6-12.
The Gentile Age is the period which elapses between the fall of the throne of Judah, in the days of Nebuchadnezzar, and the restoration of that throne by the establishment of it forever in the person of the Christ, the Son and Lord of David. Islam cannot just blindedly decide to remove major points and principles of prophecy as it serves its purposes.
The current government of the earth and of Israel by radical and culpable Islam rulers are called in Biblical text, wild beast, based solely on their unbiblical attributes. The text states, these rulers are wild beast in their cruelty and ferocity, as well as in their ignorance of God, they exist only by preying on others, who are evermore warring and slaughtering, and who oppose and persecute the saints of God.
This current period is to be immediately followed by the establishment on earth of a universal monarchy of the Kingdom of God, the Kingdom of the Son of Man, of which Jesus the Christ was spoken - in prophetic text- (the same prophetic text that Mr. Hoseins book is based on) ( you cannot just absolve yourself of parts of the text which God gave to the prophets).
This period of Gentile subjection, which still continues wa imposed on the Jews as a chastisement for inveterate and long continued sin. Leviticus 26
The full weight of the judgement did not fall on them at first, because they had not then filled up the measure of their sins; but when they, “killed the Prince of Life”; a flood of desolation overwhelmed them and rests upon the nation still. Daniel 9:26
This flood of wrath is about to happen to you oh’ Islam who change and rearrange the words of the prophets. Those radical and culpable to terrorism; are wild beast in their cruelty and ferocity, as well as in their ignorance of God, they exist only by preying on others, who are evermore warring and slaughtering, and who oppose and persecute the saints of God.
THIS IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF PROPHECIES WHICH WOULD HAVE TO CHANGE TO Accommodate ISLAM

NATIONS ADDRESSED IN THE END TIMES
Psalm 83 all Islamic Prophecy
For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee: The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes; Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison: Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth. Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna: Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession. O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind. As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire; So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm. Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD. Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish: That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.” Psalm -83:2-18

DANIEL AND REVELATION
DANIEL AND REVELATION BOTH DETAIL A TIMED EVENT WHEN 10 KINGDOMS OF ORIGINAL DESENT FROM THE TIME OF ROMAN EMPIRE, WOULD REIGN IN ROYAL STATUS TO THE END OF THE AGE . THERE ARE ONLY TWO VIABLE ENTITIES IN HISTORY WHICH WOULD MEET THE CRITIERIA OF KINGSHIP AND LONGEVITY. THE ENTITIES ARE KNOWN BY THEIR CHARACTERISTICS AS WELL AS, THE ABILITY TO ENDURE TO THE LAST DAYS OF MANKIND, IN THE CURRENT AGE ; NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.
THE PAPAL SYSTEM AND THE MOHAMMEDAN SYSTEM ARE THE ONLY TWO IN HISTORY WHICH HAVE MET THE LONGEVITY CRITIERIA.
THE MOHAMMEDAIN SYSTEM IS THE ONLY ONE WHICH MEETS ALL SPECIFIED CRITIERA OF BIBLICAL TEXT, AS THE END TIME WICKED ENTITY WHICH WILL ATTEMPT TO ANNILATE ISRAEL.
THE FINAL KEY ELEMENT, WHICH ISLAM MEETS UNDER ISLAMIC LAW, IS THE INABILITY TO CONFESS CHRIST THE ANOINTED ONE AS LORD, THE ONE KNOWN AS JESUS OF NAZARETH; UNDER PENALTY OF DEATH. THIS LAST DEFINING ELEMENT HAS NEVER APPLIED TO JEW , CHRISTIAN NOR PAPAL SYSTEMS.
In most interpretations of ISLAMIC Shariah, conversion by Muslims to other religions is forbidden and is termed apostasy . Muslim theology equates apostasy to treason , and in most interpretations of shariah, the penalty for apostasy is death . There is no such penalty to the Jewish, Christian or Papal Religious systems.
As shown aboev with Prophecy interpreting History, the End Time Entities, are specific in Nature and in Science. The Science of Prophecy allows for only one clear accurate resolution to the Mathmatic Equation. The End Times are in the Hands of Prophecy, not that of man. No amount of human sacrifice will change the outcome of Prophecy. The evidence lies with the allotted inheritance of the Patriarch Abraham, whose promise was to be the Father of MANY Nations; not just the One Nation of Israel or the One nation of Islam. Do You Understand?
THE STORY OF WALID The x-TERRORIST
I was born in Bethlehem, Israel. On the day that I was born it was one of the holiest days to Islam, that day was the birthday of the Muslim prophet Mohammad (Al-Mauled Al-Nabawi). This was an honor to my father; for that he named me (Walid), which relates to the Arabic word (Mauled) in English (The Birth), to always remember the birthday of the Muslim prophet.
My father was a Palestinian Muslim who taught English and Islamic studies in the Holy Land, and my mother was an American who married my father during his studies in the United States in the year of 1956.
Fearing the American way of life with two children and while my mother was pregnant with me, my parents left to live in Israel in 1960 which was called Jordan at that time, and when they arrived to Bethlehem I was born. As my father changed jobs we moved to Saudi Arabia then back to the Holy Land this time to the lowest place on Earth, Jericho.
I did not forget the first song I learned in school just before the six day war titled “Arabs our beloved and Jews our dogs.” I used to wonder at that time who the Jews were, but repeated with the rest of the kids the words without any knowledge of the meaning.
As I grew up in the Holy Land I lived through several battles between the Arabs and the Jews, the first battle (while we lived in Jericho) was the Six Day War when the Jews captured old Jerusalem and the rest of Palestine. This was a great disappointment to Arabs and Muslims worldwide.
The American Council in Jerusalem came just before the war to evacuate all the Americans in the area, since my mother was an American, but my father refused and turned them down because he loved his country. I still remember many things during the war; the noise of the bombing and shelling that went on day and night for six days, the looting of stores and houses by the Arabs in Jericho and people running to cross the Jordan river from fear of the Israelis.
The war was called the Six-day war because it was won in six days and on the seventh day a Rabbi by the name of Goren blew the ram’s horn on the wailing wall in Jerusalem declaring the victory. Many Jews claim that this was a parallel to Joshua when he went around the walls of Jericho six times, then on the seventh day seven times, and on that day the priests blew the trumpets and everyone shouted with one voice and took the city. To my father in Jericho it seemed that the walls have crumbled on him, during the war he was always listening to the Jordanian radio station, he used to say that the Arabs are wining the war, but he was listening to the wrong station, the Israeli station who was announcing the truth of their soon coming victory, instead my father chose to believe the Arabs who claimed that the Israelis are promoting propaganda.
Later on we moved back to Bethlehem and my father enrolled us in an Anglican-Lutheran school as they had a better English course, my brother, sister and myself where the only Muslims in the school, and being half Americans teachers would beat us and students would laugh at us, when the Bible class started I would leave the class and remained outside waiting, one day I walked in the Bible class and the class ‘bully’ stood up to fight, he shouted “we don’t want this half American and Muslim to be here”, I refused to get out and the Lady who was teaching the class asked me to sit down, since then I changed the schools policy and for the first time the school allowed a Muslim to study the Bible, and for the next three years I studied it despite all the mocking.
Later my father transferred me to the Government school where I grew in the faith of Islam, in which I was fed the idea that one day a fulfillment of an ancient prophecy by the Muslim prophet Mohammed will come to pass, this prophecy foretold a battle in which the Holy Land would be recaptured and the elimination of the Jews would take place in a massive slaughter.
This prophecy in fact is documented in Mohammed’s Book of Traditions which states the following: “The day of judgment shall not come to pass until a tribe of Muslims defeat a tribe of Jews”.
When Mohammed was asked of the place this will take place he said: “In Jerusalem and the surrounding nations”.
During my youth like my father I was always tuned to Islam and what our Muslim teachers taught. Believing in Muhammad’s prophecy I offered my life to ‘Jihad’ or ‘Holy War’ as the only means to obtain either victory or martyrdom. In Islam martyrdom is the only way you can ensure salvation and entry to heaven especially since Allah and his prophet Mohammed promised it, as the Quran states it:
“Do not think of whom are killed for the cause of Allah (in a Holy War), to be dead but living with their Lord receiving his blessing”.
During school riots against what we called the Israeli occupation I would prepare speeches, slogans, and write anti-Israel graffiti in an effort to provoke students to throw rocks at the armed Israeli soldiers. We shouted “No peace or negotiations with the enemy”, “Our blood and our souls we sacrifice to Arafat”, “Our blood and our souls we sacrifice to Palestine”, “Death to the Zionists” etc…. I vowed to fight my Jewish enemy believing that I was doing God’s will on earth, and was true to my word as I participated in many riots against the Israeli army, always trying to inflict harm to them and by all means and methods I could come up with. I would start and participate in any riot I can make, in schools, streets, and even on the holiest place (the Temple mount site) in Jerusalem called by Arabs (Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa), and all through high school I would always be one of the first to provoke a riot.
Many others got involved in terror tactics against the Jews using bombs and armed assaults on Jews as to force them to leave Israel, but they never could pluck them out.
Nothing could change my heart, I could only die or a miracle needed to happen. The simplest way to describe myself is that I was one of those whom one would view on CNN throwing rocks and Molotov cocktails in the days of the Intifada or ‘The Uprising’, I was one of these who Jews would call a terrorist, the interesting thing is that I was not only terrorizing but I was terrorized by my beliefs, since I had to gain enough merit and good deeds to go to heaven but never was sure if my good deeds would outweigh my bad deeds in the scale when I get judged by God, of course to die fighting the Jews will ease Allah’s anger towards my sin and I will be secured in a good spot in heaven with beautiful wide eyed women to fulfill my most intimate desires, either way I will win, and terror was the only way.
I remember one time in Bethlehem all viewers clapped their hands with joy in a jam-packed theater watching the movie “21 Days in Munich”. The moment we saw the Palestinians throwing grenades in the helicopter, killing the Israeli athletes, hundreds of viewers yelled “Allahu akbar” (Allah is the greatest). This is the slogan of joy used by Muslims for victorious events.
I remember students used to ask the teacher during our Islamic studies in Bethlehem High school, if it was permitted for Muslims to rape the Jewish women after we defeat them, his response was “The women captured in battle have no choice in this matter, they are concubines and they need to obey their masters, having sex with slave captives is not a “matter of choice for slaves.”, this in fact was written in the Koran, for it says: “Forbidden to you also are married women, except those who are in your hand as slaves, this is the law of Allah for you.” — Sura: The Women (al-Nisa, verse 20)
And in a different verse the Koran says: “O prophet; we allowed thee thy wives to whom thou hast paid their dowries, and the slaves whom thy right hand possesseth out of the booty which Allah hath granted thee, and the daughters of thy uncle, and of thy maternal aunt, who fled with thee to Medina, and any believing woman who hath given herself up to the prophet, if the prophet desired to wed her, a privilege to thee above the rest of the faithful”. — Sura: Confederates (al-Ahzab verse 50)
We had no problem with Mohammed taking advantage of this privilege as he married 14 wives for himself and several slave girls from the booty he collected as a result of his victorious battles, we really never knew how many wives he had and that question was always a debatable issue to us, one of these wives was taken from his own adopted son ‘Zaid’, as Allah declared that she was given to the prophet, others were Jewish captives forced into slavery after Mohammed beheaded their husbands and families.
In an attempt to change the hearts of Palestinians the Israeli T.V. station would show Holocaust documentary on T.V., I would sit and watch cheering the Germans while I chewed on food, It was impossible for me to change my mind or heart concerning Jews, only a “heart transplant” will do that job.
They took our school once to a Jewish camp on the cost of Eshdod for a week to mingle us with other Jewish schools, that didn’t work; on the contrary, every teacher who spoke to a Jew was mocked.
My mother on the other hand tried to teach me a different idea at home she called God’s plan, she spoke to me about Bible prophecy, she said that the return of the Jews was pre-planned by God and was fulfilled, this to her was Gods miracle in our generation, for the World to see that “his will shall be done.”
She also told me about many future events to be fulfilled in our generation, which is surfacing every day now, she told me of false Messiahs and counterfeits; but all that had little effect, for my heart was set on fighting against the Jews.
My mother was influenced by an American Missionary couple, who she asked secretly to baptize her, and when she refused to be baptized in a pond full of green algae the missionary priest had to plead to the YMCA in Jerusalem to clear the pool from men, and my mother was baptized, no one knew from our family.
Many times my mother would take me on trips to several museums in Israel, and I fell in love with archeology, and was fascinated with it, in many arguments with her I would bluntly tell her that the Jews and Christians corrupted the Bible, she responded by taking me to the scroll museum in Jerusalem and showed me the scroll of Isaiah, still intact but there was no one taking pictures of any Bible errors to prove of any corruption and I could not respond to my mother.
I remember when I still tormented my mother by calling her an “infidel” and a damned American Imperialist who claimed that Jesus is the Son of God. I’d show her the pictures in the news paper of all the teenagers supposedly martyred as a result of violence demanding her for answers, I hated her and always asked my father to divorce her and re-marry a good Muslim woman.
I would even pose with a grim and sad face for the school picture as if I knew that my turn to be in the paper as a martyr would be next, as many times I risked being killed during youth protests and clashes with the Israeli Army.
I lived in Israel during the Six Day War, the P.L.O. resistance, the Jordanian black September civil war, the bloody wars in Lebanon, and the war of Yom Kippur, with no hope to destroy Israel, all these losses and we still hoped for that one victory since that is all what it takes to destroy them.
My parents worried a lot about me as I got thrown in prison by the Israeli Army, my mother went to the American Council in Jerusalem to try to get me out, she was so stressed her hair started to fall, in jail I learned more about the art of terrorism and when I got out I was more fanatic than before.
When I graduated from high school they sent me to the United States to seek a higher education, and of course I got involved with many anti-Israeli social and political events. I still remember my favorite sick joke I used to like to tell my friends, that I hated Hitler very much because he never got the job done, that is: he never finished the Jewish problem “once and for all”.
With Hitler being my idol, and Mohammed my prophet, I went on with my life with little regard for Jews, Christians, or anyone who was not a Muslim. I believed that one day the whole World will submit to Islam, and that the whole world owes the Palestinians for their loss in all the battles with Israel, I also believed that Jews were prophet-killers and that they corrupted the Scriptures to serve their evil desires. This is what Muslims teach; they also teach that Mohammed is our only redeemer and God’s favored prophet.
As I lived in America I could not forget the hundreds of thousands of Muslims who died just in the last 20 years in Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Afghanistan, and in every single Muslim nation, I had to get revenge for them, and someone had to pay the price, and of course there is no question in my mind that the Jews had to pay the penalty, somehow we always managed to twist things together and make it their fault.
One day I fought with a man and struck his eye blind, I was so happy to learn that the man was a Jew.
I was fascinated with Islamic history as I learned that the Islamic prophet Mohammed extradited a Jewish tribe from Saudi Arabia and ordered the be-heading of all the men from another tribe, the women were taken as concubines. I used to believe as Islam taught, only a Caliph (Islamic ruler) can rule the world. Islam is not a religion for one’s personal and moral life, but a system of law and government to the whole world, if not achieved through peaceful means would have to wage war against all whom do not submit to Islam, and with one billion Muslims living today I believed that it could happen.
I’ll be honest; All my life I was terrified every time I read the Koran, as after every other verse is always the threats of hell fire for this sin and that, when all I wanted is to reach out to my maker to say I am sorry, forgive me, give me another chance, but I failed to keep count of all my sins and my good deeds, and I was sure that at the end, my sins will outweigh my good deeds, so I lived my sinful life depending on the love and mercy of my maker. I always wondered about my destiny, lost in my fears and doubts, I really hated the idea of killing for my salvation, and in reality I never had the heart to kill a rat!, how then can I kill a Jew !!!.
Sometime in 1992 I was fascinated when I read a book titled “Armageddon, Appointment With Destiny”, by Grant Jeffrey. Some of the things explained in this book had many detailed prophecies about Jesus: his birth, life, death and resurrection; and the re-creation of the state of Israel. Many of these prophecies came to pass just as God put them down in the Bible! What also amazed me, is to find out that the chances for a man to predict hundreds of historic events written hundreds and thousands of years before their occurrences are one in zillions… what is more fascinating is that the margin of error had to be zero, especially when the fulfillment of many of these prophecies are happening in my generation. This kind of evidence had to come from a divine origin, that origin had to be God Almighty.
The struggle began, I was puzzled, how could the Bible be a fake and corrupted by the Jews if the land I grew in spoke and cried out, as thousands of pieces of archeological evidence surfaced from the land of Israel, confirming the Bible, and the book of Isaiah was discovered in the Qumran caves was by a Muslim next town from Bethlehem by the name of (Muhammad Deib), he was looking for a lost sheep, from that discovery they found the rest of the Old Testament which confirming the Old Testament Bible in our hands today with hundreds of verses predicting the coming of Jesus Christ.
I had to read the Bible to know who Jesus really is to find out for myself, and God finally led me to get to the bottom line, I started reading what Jesus said: “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, who was and is to come, the Almighty”. Revelation 1:8
Christ also said to the Jews: Truly, truly I say to you; before Abraham was born I AM (God. John 8:58
It amazed me to find similar claims between Jesus and Mohammed. These claims were serious, as Mohammed said: “I am the beginning of all creation and the last prophet”. He also said: “I was a prophet of Allah while Adam was still being molded in clay”, and moreover he claimed to be the intercessor for Muslims in the Day of Judgment, by all of these claiming to be the World’s last and final prophet and savior.
These things always puzzled me. If Mohammed claimed all what he claimed then who was Jesus who claimed to be our redeemer and savior, that question troubled me a great deal, one of the two claims had to be a lie, if there were two redeemers this would be association with God since God is only one. Christ or Mohammed had to be the redeemer and intercessor for mankind, the Bible or the Koran had to be correct, one of them is pure gold and the other had to be a fake, but which one…?
Vowing to make a decision for “The Truth”, I stayed up late many nights comparing many details between the Koran and the Bible, at some point during my study I prayed saying: “GOD, you are the creator of heaven and earth, the God of Abraham, Moses, and Jacob, you are the beginning and the end, you are ‘The Truth’, ‘the only Truth’, the maker of the true scripture, the one and only word of God. I suffer to find your truth, I want to do your will in my life, I long for your love and in the name of ‘The Truth’ I ask. AMEN!!!”
I wanted real gold and would not settle for an imitation, I had to scratch very hard to look beyond the surface of the world’s plastic religions.
I believed in the Koran as the word of God because it had modern scientific laws, and only a book with a divine origin can have scientific facts written a thousand years before their discovery. I spent a month using a computer program searching for scientific clues in the Bible. Every verse in the Koran that was a scientific miracle that led me and millions of Muslims to believe in the Koran was already in the Bible. Many stories in the Koran had serious errors and with my knowledge on history and archeology I knew that the Koran had serious faults.
With many of these discoveries my claim that the Koran was a miracle was in question, as the Bible had all of it’s miracles hundreds and thousands of years before, my foundation shook and I felt the sinking sand under me. Even the nations mentioned by the prophet Ezekiel in chapter 38 whom God will destroy, most of them are Muslim nations growing towards Islamic Fundamentalism today.
What also helped me is that God led me to discover through my study of the Bible, hundreds of detailed and unique verses concerning prophecies fulfilled to the letter, no man has ever presented such detailed predictions of future events without having more errors than truth, God is the only one that hold the key to future events, and only the Bible has the key, not the Koran which lacks that most important elements, “Salvation and Redemption”. I knew at that moment I would have to be a fool knowing all of this and continue worshipping a different God than the God of the Bible, as I really thought with my prayer that God will lead me to the Koran, but that was not the case with me, in fact it was the other way around, I had to give up my pride and be open minded to truth.
God said in the Bible: “For I am God, and there is no other; I am God and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things are not yet done, saying my counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure”. Isaiah 46.
God did not only foretell future events, but declared them and brought them to pass, unlike the Koran, which simply used terror tactic to conform Muslims to believe. Since I did not believe that the Bible was corrupted, I spent many days searching the Bible for Mohammad as he claimed to be in it, but never found him, and if the Bible has been corrupted it had to have happened after the prophet Mohammed, since the Koran always addressed the Bible that was ‘between his hands’ at his time. From that time until now Muslims failed to provide one single Bible from the face of the Earth to prove the corruption, and not one historical or archeological evidence has been discovered to disprove the Bible.
Even the death of that Muslim prophet was different than the death of Jesus, as Mohammed died on his favorite wife’s lap “Aisha” while Jesus died on the cross in order to redeem man’s sins.
I felt sad that hundreds of millions of Muslims today live without ever hearing or being challenged with this kind of evidence.
It was astonishing to me to find that Muslims and the rest of the World recognizes three main religions that worship God, even though God said that He is One and his Word is One.
I was blind, but with the Bible only I began to see, I mean really SEE !!!, with so much Biblical prophecy fulfilled, showing the return of Israel from time is near.
Man has never changed he still kills his brother as Cain killed his brother Abel, the only difference is that we don’t behead and stab each other in battles as much as we used to, we simply wage chemical warfare to exterminate each other like bugs, as human life is becoming less and less valuable. I began to see that sin is the source of all man’s problems, and that the Devil is man’s worst enemy, not the Jews, of whom Hitler exterminated 6 million Jews less than 50 years ago and what is ironic today is that tons of literature is being sold denying the incident even existed. I wondered what would happen if a Hitler or a Mehdi or an Islamic Khalifa (Caliph) comes up to power and has what we have today: all these nuclear bombs capable of destroying Earth seven times over. God led me to look at the World that I live in and ask myself if the world today so foolishly denies the Jewish Holocaust despite all the evidence we have, why should I still wonder why most of the world today deny the messianic claim of Christ and the accuracy of the Bible, especially when the evidence is all around.
God opened my heart and mind and led me to see how people today deny all the proofs he provided for us in his word, and adapting themselves to false forms of worship.
The Lord began to show me the satanic influences which affected my way of thinking regardless of my Islamic background which I used to think were from God.
I was led to view the World and the meaning of life and saw the need for salvation. We all can see today man’s goal for a World Government waiting for the Devil to be the king ! “Babylon” is being revived from the grave to unite the world one more time, we only changed it’s name to “The New World Order”, when it should be called “The New Babylon”.
In Islam I was taught that the second coming of the Messiah was in Islamic prophecy, he was portrayed as the one to break the cross and kill the pig, another setup for Muslims to follow the “false” messiah, the Mehdi, the coming Antiochos Epiphinias.
Contrary to Mohammed’s prophecy, the Bible prepares its readers that the outcome of the siege in the time of Jacob’s trouble will not be the total annihilation of the Jews, but that Christ himself will descend on the Mount of Olives for judgment as he fights the enemies of Israel. Unfortunately, it will be too late for repentance and redemption for non-believers.
The saddest part is that hatred towards Jews is not an old out moded idea from the far past, but millions of Muslims today have the same sick idea that one day they will do the same to all Jews in the Holy Land as Mohammed did to the Jews in Saudi Arabia.
In fact the permission to kill Jews and Christians, and take their wives as concubines was engraved in the Islamic “Holy Koran”, and is the main cause for the hatred of Jews by Muslims to this very day.
The word “Truth” was stuck in my heart day and night, pounding on my soul as I continued to compare the two books, to finally conclude that the Bible can be proven beyond any shadow of a doubt to be true gold, not only by hundreds of ancient prophecies that came to pass, but by one ancient word created by God from the time of Jacob until our generation, for all who doubt, and that word was and still is ‘Israel’.
Israel’s existence today, and the re-gathering of the Jews from ALL parts of the world, is an irrefutable proof, that the Holy Bible is the true Word of God, as God scattered them throughout the whole world, and re-gathered them again from ALL nations back to their original land in fulfillment of his promises in the far past, until our present, for he said: “I will gather you from ALL the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive”, Jeremiah 29:14
The true God never changed, he is still the same, I also learned that my enemy, the Jews were chosen by God to write Gods Word, and God’s plan for salvation through Jesus the Messiah the only Messiah and redeemer for man. I also learned that Jesus, the man from my hometown was a Jew, and even my hometown was Jewish ‘Beth-Lechem’, which means ‘Home of the Bread’, as he said: “I am the Bread of Life, he who comes to me shall never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst”, John 6:35.
Beth-Lechem was given it’s name before Jesus came to this World, and he was from the people of my enemy the Jews, and he died for my sin, I never heard of an enemy who dies for another enemy and loves him so much that he allowed himself to be beaten, spat on, mocked and finally crucified. Can your enemy die for you? Yet he said: “Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you”, Matthew 5:44.
The Truth was in front of my very eyes, knocking constantly on my heart, and wanting to come in. I called on The Truth and He answered, I was blind and sought the truth, and now I see, He knocked on my door and I opened, and now he had set me free! Christ said: “I am The Way, The Truth and The Life, no one comes to the Father except through Me”, John 14:6
My way of thinking, my feelings, and my goals in life began to change, I began to feel for the Jewish People, all the hatred left me, the desire to see them hurt is no more a thing in my life, now I hurt for them and pray peace for Jerusalem continually, and instead of laughing at images of the holocaust on T.V. I would weep for them, I am even ready to give my own life for them, as did my Lord. I say it despite the outcome of the hate that could come from my own fellow Arabs and Muslims.
Yes I say it to the whole world, I love Jews, I love them because of their Messiah, I love them because they brought light to the world, and through them came the light and the truth, for that I love Jews. I no more despise them and I know from the Bible that the Jews are God’s chosen people to give light to Arabs and to the whole World, if we only allow them, for God made them a blessing to the World, we need to love and support them as God said to Abraham: “I will bless those who bless you and I will curse him who curses you, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed”. Genesis 12:2
Knowing the truth transferred my way of thinking from believing in Hitler to believing in Christ, from believing lies to knowing the truth, from being spiritually sick to being healed, from living in darkness to seeing the light, from being damned to being saved, from doubt to faith, from hate to love, and from evil works to God’s grace through Christ. This transformation taught me that without the (true) word of God things could look good on the surface but in the core lays deception. I accepted Jesus the Messiah, as my Lord and Savior, who died for all of our sins; to him I submit.
Jesus said: “Come to me all you labor, and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”, Matthew 11:28 Thank you Lord Jesus for fulfilling your promise. Walid
