And the Truth Shall Keep You Free

If you’re reading this, you likely live in a free country. A land where, at least according to the laws, you are free to think for yourself and believe what you want without threat of imprisonment or death. If you live in such a land, you are a privileged minority. Most of the world’s population does not enjoy this freedom and is working hard for you not to be able to enjoy those freedoms either.

It may come as a surprise, but historically, the more a society became aware of and engaged the God of Israel and His Word, the freer the society became. If over time they drifted from the truth of the Scriptures—whether by ignorance or neglect—the more corrupt and controlling the culture became.

That is why your faith in God is more than simply believing Yeshua died for your sins and now you get to go to heaven. He has a plan for this lifetime and Israel is a significant part of that plan. How you and your community and your nation engage in that plan will affect your life and the life and freedoms of your children and grandchildren significantly.

So for this issue, we have listed numerous scriptures that point to one major part of God’s plan for the ages—the promise of a land for Israel, removal of the people after disobedience and the eventual return and restoration of Israel to her land and to Himself! That all happens, of course, to the backdrop of massive opposition by the Kingdom of Darkness to this plan.

Gods Promise for Return, Restoration & Salvation

For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. Then you will live in the land I gave your ancestors; you will be my people, and I will be your God.

I will increase the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field, so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famine.

I will resettle your towns, and the ruins will be rebuilt. The desolate land will be cultivated instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass through it. They will say, This land that was laid waste has become like the garden of Eden; the cities that were lying in ruins, desolate and destroyed, are now fortified and inhabited. Then the nations around you that remain will know that I the Lord have rebuilt what was destroyed and have replanted what was desolate. I the Lord have spoken, and I will do it.

Ezekiel 36:24-28,30, 33b-36
