“The Board of Peace has unlimited potential. Last October, I released a Plan for the permanent end to the Conflict in Gaza, and our Vision was unanimously adopted by the United Nations Security Council. Shortly thereafter, we facilitated Humanitarian Aid at record speed, and secured the release of every living and deceased Hostage. Just last month, two dozen distinguished Founding Members joined me in Davos, Switzerland, to celebrate its official formation, and present a bold Vision for the Civilians in Gaza, and then, ultimately, far beyond Gaza — WORLD PEACE!” President Trump
I fear that Trump with his deal making persona and his admitted lack of Biblical knowledge, he can be set up for failure. Beside all that I am not excited about the $10 billion he has pledged from the United States. Trump is trying to solve a bad situation by throwing money at the problem. Money and jobs are not the problem in Gaza or other hot spots. It is the Islamic mindset. Until they accept Israel’s right to exist, nothing will change.
In these shaky and prophetic times we live, any version or derivative of “World Peace” gets on my radar. It is sometimes easy to see all events pertaining to Israel and the Middle East in light of Bible prophecy, but not all are. Forerunner? Possibly. So prophetic or egotistical, we shall see. (I am in no way saying that Trump is the ant-christ!). But this could be a forerunner to something to build on. We shall see. Or is it just another failed attempt at peace in a region with age old hatred and religious and cultural divides that will never heal. At least not until the Prince of Peace comes.
Trump said contributing nations had raised $7 billion as an initial down payment for Gaza reconstruction. Contributors included Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan, and Kuwait, he said. The membership is mostly made up of Middle Eastern countries, plus leaders from outside the region who may be looking to gain favor with Trump.
Estimates for rebuilding Gaza, which was reduced to rubble after two years of war, range up to $70 billion. “We have to get this right. There is no Plan B for Gaza. Plan B is going back to war. No one here wants that,” said the U.S. Secretary Marco Rubio. At this point Hamas has not disarmed.
Trump proposed the board in September when he announced his plan to end Israel’s war in Gaza. He later made clear the board’s remit would expand beyond Gaza to tackle other conflicts worldwide, a point he reiterated on Wednesday by saying it would look into “hotspots” around the world.
The Bible tells us in the book of Daniel 9:27, that the anti-christ with his Beast system of one world governance will “confirm” a seven year peace treaty with Israel. Interesting choice of word, “confirm.” Since I believe that the Bible says what it means and means what it says, this tells me a peace treaty of some kind will already be in place at the arrival of the anti-christ. And by the way that word doesn’t mean in place of Christ, but instead of Christ. Much more important context.
The ecumenical movement started years ago and will increase. Unity sounds great. But we must stand on the absolute truths of the Word. Unity on the essentials, and freedom on the non-essentials. No unity can be possible without naming the name of Jesus as the only way of salvation. True Christians will always be in contrast to the world and fight against the hedonistic culture of today. I believe woke based churches will play a big role in the rise of the Beast and his system. Woke, liberal work base churches with a mandate to love all regardless of lifestyle change, who also deny the validity of the Word are an anathema to the true church. After all, what is more deadly than a false man made religion. What we see today with woke churches and the absolute ignorance of the American church is mind boggling.
Is this the rising of the Beast system, peace, or the ramblings of an old man’s ego?? I’ll leave you to decide. Time will tell.
Live in the Word and walk in His Spirit.
