One for All and All for One??

One for All and All for One?? - A.V. Rauf -

According to an article in the Jerusalem Post, (http://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Christians-Muslims-and-Jews-to-build-joint-house-of-worship-in-Jerusalem-457837 ), between September 5 to 11 of this year 2016, a public ceremony will be held which will feature a joint prayer meeting between worshippers of Christianity, Judaism and Islam.  A small structure of four walls and a bit of balcony, called the Alpert Youth Music Center will become AMEN, a home for something that has never before been attempted in the Holy City - a place of worship for the three great monotheistic religions "who share a passion for Jerusalem in which they will co-exist temporarily under the wings of the Almighty."

 

The concept they have created, which the believing public is invited to join between September 5 to 11, is part of a festival known as Mekudeshet, Blessed, part of Jerusalem's Season of Culture.

 

Isaiah 56:6-8--Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off. Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant; Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people. The Lord God, which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.

 

Reportedly, this reality is based on Isaiah's prophecy, 'My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations. It is, as the festival organizers say, "an old-new reality that draws its inspiration from the ancient traditions of meeting and cooperation. A reality that turns what is holy for you and for me from separate rooms into one open temple that is filled with shared and sacred inspiration and faith."

 

A careful reading of the Scriptures clearly mentions that this will be a house of prayer to all nations, NOT religions.

 

Can this be so? Worshippers of the three Monotheistic Religions are going to come together in one edifice to pray together. How can this turn of events occur, when the ever present family feud between the seed of Ishmael and the seed of Isaac is at a fever pitch? Any permanent resolution to the current Middle East crisis would ultimately require for the religious portion of the problem to be resolved.

 

Could this upcoming event trigger the establishment of  Moslem and Jewish areas in Jerusalem collaborating with Christians to create a New Jerusalem Covenant. Then, and only then, will it be possible to build a combination Church, temple and a mosque all in one in Jerusalem. If so, apparently it will not last for long peacefully.

 

Revelation 11:1-2-And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

 

This apparently looks like the perfect platform for an individual in the Bible referred to as the "lamb with two horns," to perhaps make his long-awaited appearance on the world scene.

 

Revelation 13:11-14-And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

 

At the proper moment in history, the this individual will visit the combined Jewish/Christian/Moslem sector of Jerusalem to announce that ALL religions should be combined into one.

 

I know this sheer speculation. However in light of prophetic events rapidly unfolding on the world scene, this could be a major moment in history. If the false prophet indeed is about to emerge, then according to the Bible so is the Anti-Christ.

 

At this time, when several Christian Churches are sliding down the prophetic path of apostasy, denying the key doctrines of the Christian Faith, agreeing with the pagan religions, this may as well conditioned Christians to participate in an Ecumenical service where all three Monotheistic religions come together to pray in the name of peace: All for one and one for all!

 

This development is major and just may be the steppingstone to the appearance on the world scene of the False Prophet and of Antichrist.

 

However, our focus should be on the Christ, or the lamb that was slain before the foundation of the world.

 

I Thessalonians 5:4-11-For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape, But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

 

The King is coming & YESHUA is His name!
