Understanding the Value
God is an awesome God, and his love surpasses all of our
wildest dreams! Paul said it best in Romans 11:33-34 when he said;
"O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how
unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who
hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counselor?"
Paul had previously told us what God's plan had been concerning the Jew
and the Gentile in this chapter. The Church is about to do something that
God has planned for her. It will bring the greatest blessing to America
that this country has ever known. After the Church
does the job that the Lord is asking us to do, God
will save America, by bringing her to repentance and acceptance of the
Lord Jesus Christ.
After Jesus had gone to the cross, resurrected, and ascended into
heaven, the apostles were about to experience an unexpected request from
God. God was going to ask them to do something that would be very hard for
them to comprehend, but none the less it was something he wanted them to
do. He wanted them to take the Gospel to the Gentiles! He not only wanted
to save the Gentiles, but also wanted to make a very important ministry
out of it!
From a Gentile point of view it is hard for us to understand why this
could have been a problem. But, if we had been in their shoes we would
have done the same thing. In fact we are doing this very same thing today!
Let me explain. The Jewish people had been Gods chosen people from the
time of Abraham, which was approximately 2,000 years. Under the law it was
possible for a Gentile to become a member of the Jewish faith and be
counted with them, but as a rule this didn't happen very often. For the
most part the Gentiles were blind to what God was doing in Israel.
After 2,000 years of this the people of Israel believed that God was
basically concerned with Israel, and had very little mercy for the
Gentiles. Once in a while God would turn the heart of a Gentile to him,
but it was a rare occasion. This is why it was necessary for God to give
Peter a vision of his expectations. The apostles were not surprised that
God loved the Gentiles. They had seen Jesus himself loving everyone with
their own eyes. But it wasn't until Peter's vision that they realized that
God wanted to save all of the Gentiles and that it would be their
Job to take the Gospel to them.
Today the shoe is on the other foot and the Church is as blind as the
early apostles concerning the salvation of Israel. God has saved a few
Jews down through the ages. We expect this, but we also know that it
hasn't been in great numbers, just a few. We have grown so accustomed to
this that it would seem very absurd to our way of thinking to believe that
God would want to save all of the Jews. Does God want to save
all of Israel? Yes, he does, and he will. But he needs our
help.
God wants the Gentiles to take the Gospel to the Jews,
and he wants us to make it a great effort. An all out Crusade! Do
you find it hard to believe? Well you can't help it. It isn't your fault,
we just didn't understand before. It is God's timetable, just as it was
time for the Gentiles to come to him. Now it is time for Israel to come to
him. Just as the Apostles didn't understand in their day and had to be
persuaded, God is doing the same thing with the Church in our time. He is
trying to persuade us to do his will. To save Israel!
Isaiah 45:25: In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be
justified, and shall glory.
Romans 11:26-32: 26. And so all Israel shall be
saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Si'on the
deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob; 27. For this
is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. 28. As
concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sakes; but as touching the
election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. 29. For the gifts
and calling of God are without repentance. 30. For as ye in times past
have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy
through their unbelief: 31. Even so have these also
now not believed, that through your mercy they also may
obtain mercy. 32. For God hath concluded them all in unbelief,
that he might have mercy upon all.
In these scriptures, God is telling us that it has been his plan all
along, that at the end of the age the Gentile Church is supposed to give
the Gospel to the Jews. He clearly tells us that he has given Israel
partial blindness so that he could save us. And that it is our
responsibility to have mercy on the Jews and give them the Gospel so that
they might be saved too. It is his plan that he might save both Jew and
Gentile. Israel can be saved no other way; they must come through Christ
to be saved the same as anyone else. After we give them the Gospel, both
Gentile and Jew will make up the kingdom of God.
There are millions of Jews living in the world today. Only 4.7 million
of these live in the nation of Israel itself. Six million Jews live in the
United States of America. Thousands of Jews have returned to the nation of
Israel from all parts of the World, especially from Russia in the last few
years. The Church in America has been watching these events with much
intensity, looking for prophetic signs, watching for signs to signal the
return of Jesus. This is wonderful, but there has been scripture
fulfillment taking place that has gone unnoticed that will help shape the
grand plan that God has for your future, and the future of our whole
nation.
In the Book of Ezekiel, God has told us that he would gather Israel
into two large gatherings. God has shown us these things by the prophecy
of the two sticks. He would make one stick in
remembrance of Judah. Another stick would be made in
remembrance of Joseph, but this stick would be called
Ephraim. Ephraim was Joseph's youngest son who held the
birthright .
God was telling us that before he gathered all of Israel back to their
land, he would gather them into two separate groups. The group gathered
for Ephraim will come to Christ before the other. This group
will be saved before the tribulation begins.The other group gathered for
Judah will be saved during the last half of the seven-year tribulation
period.
Until the 19th century the Jewish people had lived all over parts of
Africa, Europe, Asia, including the Middle East. They had been persecuted
in every country in the world at some time or other. Persecution began to
increase and around the middle of the 19th century the Jewish people began
to emigrate to new places with the hope of finding some sort of happiness.
By 1880 there were approx. 250,000 Jews living in America, but by 1920
which was only 40 years later, there were over 3,000,000 Jews who had
immigrated to the United States. Most of these came from Russia. The
United States was the first country in the world to give the Jewish people
equal citizenship and equal protection under the Law.
Before coming to America the Jewish people literally had no rest. Today
there are approximately 6,000,000 living in the United States alone, it is
the largest gathering of Jews in the world. Even the nation of Israel
doesn't have this many Jews living in their own land. Why? It is because
of Ezekiel's prophecy of the two sticks. We would have to literally hold
our hands over our eyes to keep from seeing this great prophecy coming to
past. The thing that has blinded the Church is the fact that Israel has
been going back to the land of Israel. We haven't noticed the Jews in
America because we have had our attention focused on the land of Israel
itself. We didn't realize that the Jews in America had any significance at
all. But God has a great plan for the Jews who live in America.
Most of the Jews living in America care nothing about going back to
Israel, they are Americans, they're happy. For the most part prosperous,
why should they go back to Israel? Doesn't this seem a little odd to you?
After all, aren't the Jews supposed to want to go back to the land of
Israel?
Ezekiel 37:15-22 15. The word of the Lord came again unto me,
saying, 16. Moreover thou son of man, take thee one stick,
and write upon it, For Judah, and for the
children of Israel his companions: then take another
stick, and write upon it, for Joseph, the
stick of Ephraim, and, for all the house of Israel his
companions. 17. And join them one to another into one stick;
and they shall become one in thine hand. 18. And when the
children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew
us what thou meanest by these? 19. Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord
God; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in
the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows,
and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah,
and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my
hand. 20. And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine
hand before their eyes. 21. And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God;
Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither
they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them
into their own land: 22. And I will make them one nation in the land
upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and
they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two
kindoms any more at all:
The Jews in America are the Jews that God has assembled for
Ephraim, Joseph's youngest son. God is doing this for
Joseph's sake. Joseph was the only son who was truly faithful to God out
of all the 12 sons of Jacob. The Lord has promised to save this group of
people first for Ephraim's name.
Jeremiah 31:9: They shall come with weeping, and with
supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of
waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a
father to Israel and Ephraim is my firstborn.
It would be wonderful if the Church in America could only see the value
of winning the Jews in America to Christ. God has given a promise to
Ephraim that out of him would come a multitude of nations.
This is what God is going to do for the world through the Jews living in
America! He will use this group of Jews to win a great harvest of souls to
him in America after the Church realizes that this is what God
wants them to do! But their mission will not stop here, God has
commissioned them to take the Gospel to the whole world, and the Church in
America will help.
Before I continue, let me clarify a couple of things. Number one: I
do not believe that all the Jews living in America are from the
tribe of Ephraim, neither do I believe that all the
Jews living in Israel are from the tribe of Judah. Both
America and Israel have all 12 tribes of Jews living in them. God has
simply gathered these two groups into these two nations to fulfill his
word to Ephraim and Judah. He has assembled them for their namesakes. And
He has done all of this in a very short time.
It is the firm belief of the Christian Crusade for the Salvation of
America and the Nation of Israel, that God will bring America to
repentance and acceptance of the Lord Jesus Christ, when the
Church in America takes the Gospel to the Jews who are living here.
America is a new country compared to other nations in the world.
Although this nation isn't righteous, God has used it none the less to
help his people Israel, He has raised up America with this purpose in
mind. It was meant to become a refuge for the Church and to help Israel
become re-established in their land. This America has already done, but In
the near future God will rise up the Church in America to reach the Jews
who live here with the Gospel. They will receive it causing the greatest
revival the United States has ever known. God will then use these brand
new born again Jews to reach America with the Gospel. It will be the
beginning of the salvation of America, for God will send the Holy Ghost to
bring the spirit of repentance to America.
People from all over the world have come to America to find freedom to
serve God. The Church in America has taken the Gospel of the Lord Jesus
Christ to more nations than any group of people in the world.
Beginning around 1880 God used America to relieve the persecution of
the Jews from the Old World. Because of this God rewarded America with a
great spiritual revival in the early part of the twentieth Century which
began with an outpouring of the Holy Ghost at the Azusa Street Revival.
It was America that rescued the Jewish people from Hitler's death
camps, and put an end to his reign of terror during World War Two. God has
rewarded America by making her the strongest nation in the world. Before
World War Two America was only 17th in world power. All the nations of the
earth fear America at this very moment because of this.
In 1948 Golda Meir a representative of Israel, came to America with 10
dollars in her purse. The nation of Israel had just been granted the right
by the United Nations to become a new country, Israel knew that the minute
they were to raise their new flag they would be invaded by the Muslim
countries that lived around them. They needed money and arms to fight in
order to hold on to their new nation. Golda left America with 50 million
dollars and the promise of the President of the United States to give them
support and to assist them if any large country such as Russia were to get
involved. Israel fought off their enemies and became a new nation; because
of this great Revival came to America. Through ignorance many Christians
believed that somehow they had managed to earn this great revival
because of their holy living, but it was God keeping his word to Abraham,
that whoever blessed Abraham, God would bless
Tent revivals went up all over America with millions of people being
saved and filled with the Holy Ghost. Men like Billy Graham, Oral Roberts,
William Branham, A.A. Allen, and Jack Coe appeared with great deliverance
and healing power. People leaped from wheel chairs, threw away crutches
neither in such numbers that have ever been equaled before nor
since. Jack Coe held revivals on the United States Capitol
building lawn with crowds so large that an hour before they began there
would be standing room only. Thousands of crutches were piled in
large piles at that meeting as people was being healed, thousands came to
Christ. Simply because America blessed Israel!
God has done these things for us in the past, What do you think he will
do for us when we become obedient and do what he has called us to do. God
is going to prove to Israel, who has been beaten and driven from most of
the nations of the world, that he has a people who will love them. Don't
you think its time for us to do this? The love of God compels us to do
this!
Please pray for America and the nation of Israel, God wants to save
both, won't you help? God is waiting for us to act on his word.
Will the Jews be in the Rapture?
Sure they will. The only answer that could ever be to this question is
yes! One of the main reasons the Church has been mistaken about the
Jews being in the Rapture is that our ancestors were anti-Semitic. They
didn't like the Jews, so it showed up in their teaching. They were not
anti-Semitic in the sense of a Neo-Nazi. But, they have tried desperately
to cut the Jews out of anything grand or glorious in Bible prophecy. This
has created false prophecy. The Bible is very clear that there will be a
very large number of Jews who will be saved to be in the Rapture with the
rest of the Church. Does this surprise you? Deep down the Gentile Church
thinks that it is a little bit better than the Jews, after all they killed
Jesus didn't they?
Well, believe it or not the Caucasian Church in America is still
suffering from whites being prejudiced against blacks. There is racial
hatred right in the Church. I hope the Church in America gets this sin
right with God before the return of Christ. If we don't, God will judge us
for this!
About this killing Jesus issue, The Jews told the Romans to kill him
and the Romans did. There was not a single Jewish spear or knife pierce
our Lords body. It was only their rejection and their words. The Jews said
to do it and the Gentiles did. Who is to blame? You're right! We all are.
It was our sins that put Jesus on the cross; He laid down his life freely
so that we could be saved. I don't know how anyone could hold a grudge
against someone's children because of their father's sins. Yet Christians
are guilty of this kind of sin against God's people the Jew. The truly sad
thing about this is that this has been going on for almost two thousand
years! How can it be?
The first thing I would like to say is this. The Gentile Church, which
Paul called the wild olive has been grafted into the promise with the tame
olive which is the Jew, right? Allow me to ask you a very sincere
question. Since we have been grafted into their promise, instead of them
being grafted into our promise; what makes you think that God is going to
leave the tame olive behind and take the grafted in olive instead? Only
pride could make us think like that. Would you rapture your adopted son
and leave your natural son behind? I don't think so? The Gentile Church
would like to believe that all God has for Israel is contempt, but God
loves his people Israel. They have already paid for their disobedience,
with almost two thousand years of blindness. God has given the Gentile
Church this same amount of time to be blessed.
Isaiah 26: 15-21: 15. Thou hast increased the nation, O
Lord, thou has increased the nation; thou art glorified: thou hadst
removed it far unto all the ends of the earth. 16. Lord, in trouble
have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was
upon them, 17. Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time
of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been
in thy sight, O Lord. 18. We have been with child, we have been
in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not
wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the
world fallen. 19. Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead
body shall they arise. Awake and sing ye that dwell in dust for thy dew is
as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the
dead. 20. Come, my people, enter thou into thy
chambers, and shut thy doors about thee; hide thyself as it were
for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. 21. For,
behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the
earth for their iniquity; the earth also shall disclose her blood, and
shall no more cover her slain.
This is scripture in the Old Testament that tells of the coming
Rapture. The people that he was talking too are the nation of Israel. They
are the nation that have been increased and scattered all over the earth.
They have been with child, which means they have finally given birth to
born again children of God. They are discouraged because they haven't been
able to do a whole lot for the Lord. This is showing Israel in the last
few years before the return of the Lord. The Gentiles have done it all up
until now. They would like to do something to. Instead of telling them in
this passage of scripture what he has in store for them, He shows them
that he is going to rapture them at the time of the resurrection from the
dead. The resurrection of the dead occurs at the same moment as the
Rapture of the Church. Can you see? There are many more scriptures telling
about this in the Bible, but they have not been taught because of
anti-Semitic feelings about the Jews. But it is important for the Church
and the World to embrace the truth. And do something about it.
What most of the Church doesn't realize is that the group of Jews in
the Western Hemisphere will be saved before the tribulation period. God
has promised it to Ephraim; this is talking specifically about the large
number Jews living in America. In Jeremiah God promised to bring the Jews
out of the north country (Russia). And that he would bring them back to
the land of Israel. There are many Jews returning to Israel from Russia at
this very moment, but the largest group of Jews that has ever left
the north country have come to America. After all of the Jews that
are living in Russia leave and return to Israel, the number will still not
come close to the amount of Jews living in America. These have come to
this country since the beginning of the Russian persecution on them.
America is the land that Jesus is going to pick up this group of Jews at
the time of the rapture of the Church. Ephraim will be in the
rapture! At the time of Armageddon he will bring them
back to live in the land of Israel. Ephraim and the group for Judah will
live together and become one people in the land.
There are several things about all of this that are very wonderful.
Number one, this will give us the opportunity to do something meaningful
for Christ. America needs to be told what is coming, in
order to prepare America for the great work that God has for the Church.
Number two; God wants to use you in helping to reach the Jewish
people with the Gospel in America. God will bless you and your
family for this. If all of the people who are Christians in America were
to reach their families in America, it would be most of the nation. Think
about it! Number three; Jesus isn't coming back for the Church until
this group of Jews is saved! If you are tired of the conditions in
America and are looking forward to the return of Jesus, you must help him
win his chosen people back to him so he can return. If
you believe that the Gospel must be preached to all nations and then the
tribulation will begin. Then the Church in America will have to evangelize
the Jews in America before this can happen!
Won't you please do something to help the Lord in this? Millions of
men, women, and children suffered during the holocaust in Europe while the
Christians in America ignored and refused to believe the truth. To spend
eternity in hell is a lot worse torment than the holocaust. We cannot let
this happen to Israel! We must help Israel in their time of need, which is
the need for the Gospel and prayer for salvation.
There is one thing besides the scriptures that gives me the assurance
that this message is the truth. It's the opposition that we
get. I have never been involved in another ministry or work that
causes so many people to get so angry. I have been accused of being a Jew
worshipper for simply trying to evangelize the Jews. This is the strangest
thing to me, that God called ministers will ask their congregation to pray
for Israel but in the same breath warn their people not to become Jew
worshippers? What a confusing statement to make. They make an appearance
of righteousness for prayer but create a stumbling stone for anyone in
their congregations who might be interested in taking the Gospel to the
Jews. In all the days of my life I have never seen anyone worship any Jew
other than Jesus Christ who was born the son of David. If people who are
trying to win the souls of the Jewish people are Jew worshippers, then the
Jews were Gentile worshippers when they made a great effort to win our
souls. Especially the Apostle Paul who said that he was the Apostle to the
Gentiles.
The ministers who are making these accusations against Gods people for
trying to evangelize the Jews are being instruments of the devil. They are
as guilty as the enemies of Israel are that tripped the children of Israel
while they fled for their lives from another enemy. If
this kind of logic had existed every time we have tried to evangelize a
particular group of people then every one would be guilty of worshiping
human beings instead of God. If you went to Mexico and tried to evangelize
the Mexicans would you be a Mexican worshipper? That's a pretty stupid
question, right? Think about it! God has mercy on Christian people who
allow the devil to use them in preventing the Jewish people from hearing
the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The following Scriptures show the Gentiles taking the
Gospel to the Jews!
In Isaiah the 60th chapter God gave us a remarkable scripture, a
complete allegory of something that must happen in the future.
Isaiah 60:16: 16:Thou shalt also suck the
milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of
kings: and thou shalt know that I am thy Saviour and
thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
The milk of the Gentiles in this scripture is the same milk that
Peter and Paul talked about in the New Testament. The milk of the word is
the basic Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Christ has made us unto him
kings and priest in the kingdom of God. This is how they will know that
Jesus is the Savior and Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. From the
breast, means from our hearts. This scripture is showing us, the Gentiles
taking the Gospel to the Jews. It has never happened in the past. It is
something God wants us to do. Picture it like this. The Gentile Bride, the
Church, holding a brand new born again Jewish baby in her arms breast
feeding this baby the word of God. Isaiah has more to say about this.
Isaiah 61:5-7: 5. And strangers shall stand and feed your
flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your
plowmen and your vinedressers,
The strangers and aliens in these scriptures are the Gentiles. They
will be shepherds to Israel to feed their flocks the word of God. They
will be their plowmen and vinedressers. Which means that the Gentile
ministers will teach the newborn Jews how to trust in Jesus so that they
will be fruitful to the Lord.
6. But ye shall be named the Priests of the Lord; men shall call you
the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the
gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves,
In this next verse his is reassuring Israel that they to will be
Ministers of God. Them eating the riches of the Gentiles is talking
about receiving Jesus who is the riches of the Gentiles.
(Romans 11:12) Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the
diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much
more their fulness?
7. For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall
rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess
the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.
Israel is going to receive a double portion when they come to Jesus
through the preaching of the Gentiles because of the shame they have
suffered over the past two thousand years. But look at what he is going to
do for the strangers and sons of the aliens who fed their flocks and
plowed their fields with the Gospel. He promises that the Gentile people
who do this will receive a double portion in their land. Why would he do
this? Remember his promise to Abraham? It is promised that if we bless
Israel, God will bless us. If we bless them with the Gospel, God will in
turn give us a double portion in our land. God will save the nation of
America, if we will share Jesus with the Jews who are living in this
nation. There are many, many more scriptures on this promise, but they
have been smothered out by the Christian people who are jealous of Israel
and hard in their hearts toward Gods' will for his people Israel.
It is going to take a lot of prayer and preparation in order to
evangelize the Jews in America. God is depending on you and me. What can
you do? You can start by praying and asking God for help. Tell others
about this message and ask them to help. It will work; the Bible shows it
happening. God bless you.
We would like to encourage everyone to keep praying for the salvation
of the people of America. When you do please try to remember all the
Christian people across the world. Many are going through very difficult
times just to serve the Lord. God loves his people in all the nations of
the world. The time will come that we will be pulling millions of people
from other countries that are being oppressed by the anti-Christ. But in
the mean time we should always pray that God would strengthen our
Christian brothers and sisters through out the world. And don't forget to
pray for the Salvation of the Jewish people who have been neglected by the
Church for 2 thousand years.
Your brother in Christ Tommie Spurgeon
