Bible studies # 67: Jesus will deal with His enemies

Jesus knows better than you how to handle enemies. From the days of the flood, through the failures of Sodom to the final judgment.
Jesus came as the Lamb of God. He will return as the Lion of Judah.
Jesus came as the Lamb of God. He will return as the Lion of Judah.
The Bible says God if slow to anger. But He surly gets angry. Few people pay attention to the fact that Jesus the Messiah will return as the Lion of Judah.
The Lion is slow to anger, but is will roar. The Lion of Judah will bring judgment and punishment.
 Nahum 1:3
The LORD is slow to anger and great in power; the LORD will not leave the guilty unpunished. His way is in the whirlwind and the storm, and clouds are the dust of his feet.
The first time God got angry He kicked Satan out of Heaven. One third of the angles had sided with the Devil, leading a rebellion.
It did not take long time before Satan crated trouble on the Earth. Adam and Eve was kicked out of the garden, because of their rebellion against the Word of God.
Man seems to have learned very little from his rebellious acts.  Just before the flood, God even regretted that He had made us.
 Genesis 6:5-7
 The Lord saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time.
The Lord was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain.
So the Lord said, “I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground, and birds of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.”
When Jesus had chosen for him self a people to be His very own, Satan and his children again started to create problems.
This time it was Abraham who faced opposition, when he tried to rescue the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. The problem Abraham faced what there was hardly a righteous man to find. Most of them had fallen into the sin and perversion of homosexuality.
Surely God acted, and send a calamity and destroyed the twin cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Also the prophet Joel explains that Jesus is slow to anger, but surely can send calamities.
 Joel 2:13
 Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.
Even when Moses faced a rebellion in the desert, Jesus acted and dealt with the work of Satan.
 Numbers 16:32
 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, with their households and all Korah’s men and all their possessions.
When the Jews rebelled against God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, they would face His angry response.
Twice Jesus sent the Jews into exile. He did not even spear His two Temples in Jerusalem. He let them be destroyed by wicked and violent men.
In 1948, Jesus re-birthed Israel. He gathered His people from all the nations where He had sent them, and helped them to rebuild the ruins in Zion.
Not all are willing to accept this. Even people who claims to be “Christians”. Neither do such people accept the validity of the eternal promises to the Jews, neither the nature and character of God of the Hebrews.
Replacement theology is not only based on an ideology that Jesus has deleted His eternal promises to the Jews.  Thousand of claimed to be priests and pastors claims that the Son of God has also changed His nature and character. Botch such teachings are based on gross errors.
These false teachers present God of the “Old Testament”as as angry God, who faded into history as a mythological failure.  Their “Christ” is only good to all.
Surely Jesus the Messiah will deal justly with such enemies of the truth.
In their thousands, such false teachers tries to convince us that there is a “new God” who appears in the New Covenant, also called the New Testament. After Jesus has died on the cross and resurrected, we are suppose to believe that God is no longer angry with those who rebel against Him.
The best example of the resurrected Jesus getting angry and pushing the children of Satan, is the handling of Ananias and Sapphira. Jesus used His Apostle Peter to punish them.
 Acts 5:5
When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened.
Also other children of Satan faced the anger of Jesus.
 Acts 13:9-12
 Then Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked straight at Elymas and said,
 “You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right!
You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord?
Now the hand of the Lord is against you. You are going to be blind, and for a time you will be unable to see the light of the sun.”
Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand.  When the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, for he was amazed at the teaching about the Lord.
The nations of today’s Generation, feel they live in safety, relaying on their own knowledge and strength. This is a fatal deception.
Jesus will deal with all the nations, and He dealt with the city of Nineveh.
  Nahum 3:1-6
Woe to the city of blood,
 full of lies, 
full of plunder,
 never without victims!

The crack of whips,
 the clatter of wheels,
galloping horses
 and jolting chariots!
 Charging cavalry,
 flashing swords
 and glittering spears!

Many casualties,
 piles of dead,
 bodies without number,
 people stumbling over the corpses
—
 all because of the wanton lust of a harlot,
 alluring, the mistress of sorceries,
 who enslaved nations by her prostitution
 and peoples by her witchcraft.  
I am against you,” declares the Lord Almighty.

“I will lift your skirts over your face.
I will show the nations your nakedness
 and the kingdoms your shame.

I will pelt you with filth,
 I will treat you with contempt
 and make you a spectacle.
Judgment day is near.
Non of the godless and wicked will escape the wrath of God. He is surely slow to anger, but He will surly deal with the children of Satan.
You shall not deal with them.  You shall love all people enough to tell them the truth. Also those you consider to be your enemies.
Tell all men that the fire of Hell is prepared for all who has rebelled against the Word of God and have not accepted the Lordship of  The Son of God. The Kingdom of Heaven is the final destiny for all who have obeyed Him.
 Revelation 20-15
 If anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
There is only one way to escape eternal punishment and Hell.
You have to surrender to and obey Yeshua the Messiah. Only He can write your name into the book of life. Amen.

Be wise. Surrender today.
