Why Petra (Jordan) is NOT the Wilderness Hiding Place for the Jews❗️

These are the main Bible verses you need to know for our topic.

"When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be."

Matthew 24:15-24

🌿🌿🌿🌿

"The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days."

Revelation 12

🌿🌿🌿🌿

"He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.

Daniel 9:27

Now let me pop in one of my whiteboard charts to clarify things.

These three Scriptures are all talking about the SAME thing.

Soon a UBER fabulous Politician (the Bible calls the AntiChrist) will take over as the sole leader of a Global Government. He will sign a 7-Year "Peace" Deal with Israel which will allow them to rebuild the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem.

(It was ripped to shreds in 70 AD by the Romans and only a tiny part of the Western wall (aka. Wailing Wall) remains.)

In the middle of the 7 years the antiChrist goes into the Jewish  Temple and declares himself to be God.

The Jews realize they have been duped by this false leader and God's full measure of wrath hits the earth in the second half of the Tribulation.

The antiChrist and his world government start hunting the Jews but God has a special place He promises to hide them for the remaining 3 1/2 years.

The Bible never specifically names this place but people who currently teach Eschatology (End Times Bible Prophecy) have latched onto the idea it is Petra in Jordan, even though it doesn't ever name the place in the Bible.

They don't say, "I think it might be Petra" or "It is my opinion it's Petra" they say, "God is going to hide the Jews in Petra." as if it is a Biblical FACT.

"Why do they say this if it's not in the Bible"❓️

GREAT Question! 

Let's take a quick look at Petra first.

I got my first look at this amazing place in the movie, "Indiana Jones: The Last Crusade" (the one where Sean Connery plays his Dad).

Here are some basic facts about Petra.

So it was made by these Nomadic Arabs called the Nabataeans and it housed their homes, tombs and lots of graven images of their idols.

It's a major Tourist site, wheelchair and scooter accessible, people pay lots of money to travel there and go GLAMPING there and it's not even in Israel.

Are you telling me THIS is the best hiding place the Lord could think up❓️❗️

So let's return to your question of, 

"Why do Bible Teachers say it's in the Bible if it's not in the Bible?"❓️

(sigh 😞)

I'm sorry, my Dears, but it is the same reason it usually is these days.

Money❗️

These ministers have for years (some for decades) been leading and hosting Tours to Israel. People pay GOBS of money to see Petra and the teachers have fit it into their tours. It has become a huge part of their income.

At this point, even if they did want to repent and come clean, it would crumble their ministries so they have to keep justifying it more and more.

I have sent (very gently worded) emails to several Bible Teachers I admire and value. Mostly initially in the form of the question,

"If Petra isn't actually mentioned by name in the Bible why do you think it's the place God will hide the Jews during the Tribulation?"

Without exception I have been responded to immediately with huge hostility. I've been called some very nasty names and been blocked by them across all their Social Media.

I won't name them. I don't have to. You'll know who they are because they are CONSTANTLY pushing their next trip to Israel.

Usually telling us that "the Bible takes on an entirely new depth" or "you never read the Bible the same way again once you see where Jesus walked" and "we will be staying at a 5-star hotel" or "this is the best way you can bless Israel in her current situation" ...

(It doesn't do their pockets any harm either! 🤨)

I wish I could spare you knowing that the majority of our church leaders have no integrity and are falling away because of their love of money, but I alert you to it for some very good reasons.

1. To keep you from falling into the same trap. We must NOT alter the words of the Bible (especially the book of Revelation) for ANY reason.

"18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll. 

19 And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll."

Revelation 22:18-19

It's okay to discuss these things and even wonder and speculate about them. I hope you do. But when you pass it on to others you MUST make sure they know the difference between what is in the Bible and what is just an opinion.

2. There is SO much error about what is actually in the Bible that by the end of the day my head feels like it's spinning and the methods of deception are demonically clever.

3. Even if these Bible teachers are sincere and have talked THEMSELVES into the lies, they are leading millions of their Followers astray, so I MUST speak up according to my commission as a Watchman in Ezekiel, chapter 3.

4. It is also my hope to motivate you to start a small Bible Study of your own. You don't need to have anything but your love for Jesus and your Bible.

There is a ravenous hunger for God's word right now and perhaps God wants to use you wherever you are right now.

Would you ask Him this in your prayers?

5. Also, I don't want you to be fearful when you see our admired leaders bail out on us and Jesus to chase money. This will turn us back to Jesus as the HEAD of the Church, which is His Body.

If YouTube and the Internet suddenly got shut down or we were denied access to it 😱 we'd be okay because we have the Holy Spirit living inside of us to comfort, instruct, guide and unite us ... for Eternity.

I hope I've helped by bringing you ...

Remnant Responses

 

"Times are tough but I'm excited because prophetic events are falling into place and we have front row seats to the End of the World!"

I've actually heard many of my fellow Remnant Believers in Jesus say that.

We are about to see God's Wrath poured out and some truly dark days. Billions of people will suffer and die. If you're getting any thrill from that prospect, you've got issues.

All I seem to care about these days is encouraging my Fellow Remnant Believers who are so sick and weary and just want to get out of here. 

Do NOT GIVE UP❗️

Jesus is so close. Time to literally be scanning the sky from the East to the west.

As for being an Evangelist❓️

I have spent most of my life telling people about Jesus and what the Bible says and after 48 YEARS of it I'm sick of getting a "Ho Hum", lethargic, "Jesus, I can take Him or leave Him" response from people in western countries.

There are 5 BILLION people on this planet who DON'T know anything about Jesus. I'm going to go find them.

Trump's Game of QATARI

 

 The entire Bible, both Old and New Testaments, revolves around God's relationship with Israel.

America is never mentioned anywhere in the Bible.

The Islamic Brotherhood gets its money from its leaders in Qatar.

They are religious extremists who are committed to destroying America ("The Great Satan") and Israel ("The little Satan") and they will use every means at their disposal, even training their OWN children to be Suicide Bombers.

If Trump thinks he is capable of sitting down with them and making a deal that will bring peace to the Middle East he is grossly mistaken.

President Trump now flys around in Air Force One bought entirely by Qatari money. The same people responsible for 9/11❗️

Now Trump is bossing around, threatening and cussing out the Leader of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. I don't care how "Christian" the founding fathers of American were, Trump has crossed the line against Israel and God is going to pick Israel's side as He always does.

The tragic irony is that Americans thought Trump was their Salvation when he will be the cause of their Destruction.

Donald Trump's Handwriting on the Wall Moment (Warning❗️ Explicit Content)

"While Belshazzar [mighty King of Babylon] was drinking his wine, he gave orders to bring in the gold and silver goblets that Nebuchadnezzar his father[a] had taken from the temple in Jerusalem, so that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines might drink from them. So they brought in the gold goblets that had been taken from the temple of God in Jerusalem, and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines drank from them. As they drank the wine, they praised the gods of gold and silver, of bronze, iron, wood and stone.

Suddenly the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall, near the lampstand in the royal palace. The king watched the hand as it wrote. 6 His face turned pale and he was so frightened that his legs became weak and his knees were knocking."

Daniel 5:2-6

(Daniel is brought in to translate God's handwriting on the wall.)

"you have set yourself up against the Lord of heaven. You had the goblets from his temple brought to you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or understand. But you did not honor the God who holds in his hand your life and all your ways. Therefore he sent the hand that wrote the inscription.

“This is the inscription that was written:

mene, mene, tekel, parsin

“Here is what these words mean:

Mene : God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end.

Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.

Peres: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians."

Ðaniel 5:23-28

That very night Babylon fell and Belshazzar with it.

WORLD  Leaders Who Took a Stand AGAINST Israel

What EXACTLY did President Trump say to Prime Minister Netanyahu ❓️

WARNING  ❗️EXPLICIT CONTENT❗️

You know, America is not even mentioned in Bible Prophecy so I always knew at some point you'd cease to be a Super Power, but it is a huge (and tragic) irony that Donald Trump, your Political Savior is the one who sunk you.
