The Final Solution

“The Final Solution or the Final Solution to the Jewish Question (Endlösung der Judenfrage) was a Nazi plan for the genocide of Jews during World War II. It was the official code name for the murder of all Jews within reach, which was not restricted to the European continent.This policy was formulated in January 1942 at the Wannsee Conference held near Berlin.It culminated in  the murder of 90% of Polish Jews, and two-thirds of the Jewish population of Europe.” (Wikipedia)

The desire to wipe out the Jews has been going on for thousands of years. The Jews have always been everybody’s favorite scapegoat. The Egyptians tried it under the Pharaohs. The Iranians — that’s right —tried it under Haman. One of the strongest persecutions came under the Roman Empire. Not only was the Temple burnt in Jerusalem, but Jews ended up being dispersed throughout the Empire.  

When Constantine became Emperor in 313, he passed the edict of Milan in 315, which made Christianity legal, but not Judaism. After the Christian religion spread and the Council of Nicaea was held, the Christian Sabbath was determined to be held on Sunday, driving a wedge between Christianity and Judaism. This change did not only make the Jews stand out as heretics, but they were no longer considered citizens of Rome. The idea that the Christian people were now the new chosen people of God – rather than the Jews – is called Replacement Theology.

Later there were the Spanish inquisitors, the Tsarist pogroms. And then Hitler, whose extermination program was the most ambitious and successful of all.

What about today’s Muslim hatred of Jews?  Some people seek to trace the issue back to Abraham’s two sons, Isaac and Ishmael, or Isaac’s two sons, Jacob and Esau. Whatever enmity existed between the two offspring, there was not a command of God to kill the Jews.  The immense hatred of the Jews began in the time of Mohammed, by Mohammed, and it is alleged that Allah gave the command for it. – Anger is a cancer of the soul. It becomes the driving force for murdering someone.  

Recalling this history is important. For decades, the United Nations have led a campaign to demonize and delegitimize Israel. That campaign is now set to sharply escalate.

Just last week, the United Nations approved a $4.2 million budget to establish a so-called Commission of Inquiry—essentially a Grand Inquisition targeting and vilifying Israel. “Under the auspices of the Human Rights Council, a body dominated by such notorious human rights violators as China, Russia, Cuba, Pakistan, Qatar and Venezuela, an 18-member staff will be led by Navi Pillay. The former U.N. high commissioner for human rights has “an appalling record on Israel,” in the considered judgment of Hillel Neuer, executive director of U.N. Watch.” (Clifford May – JNS)

In the in the book of Ezekiel we read a detailed prophecy about a future war campaign against Israel. This war is known as the “Gog and Magog War” because the people of Magog and their leader Gog will lead the attack against Israel. ThisGog and Magog war he mentions, will take place in the Mountains of Israel, while the  Armageddon battle will be in the valley of Megiddo. The Armageddon battle involves all world nations while the Gog and Magog war involves only selected nations led by Russia. China is not in the Gog and Magog war but in the Armageddon battle.

According to scripture, this will happen before the Messiah comes. That alone gives us a clue why the world is trying to wipe out Israel and the Jews. They don’t want the Messiah to come. And what spiritual force is behind that? It has to be Satan himself. I believe each attempt to wipe out the Jewish people has been, is, and will be, satanically inspired.

One of the most important aspects of the Redemption is the promise of the ingathering of the exiles from the Diaspora. We see that happening right now. And we see the preparations for the battle happening at the same time. Twenty-five hundred years ago, Zechariah foretold that Jerusalem would be surrounded by enemy nations in the last days. Today we see this happening.

And that will be God’s final solution: “Then the Lord will be king over the whole world. At that time there will be only one Lord, and his name will be the only name.” (Zechariah 14:9)
