On Sunday an illegal alien from Egypt attacked a group of Jewish people in Boulder, Colorado with molotov cocktails. This is a reminder that the rise of antisemitism worldwide is a sign that we are living in the last days.

According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in the three months following the start of the war in October 2023, antisemitic incidents in the U.S. skyrocketed by 361%.

Consider this: Russia invaded Ukraine but have you seen or heard any protests against Russians? And where is the hatred for Ukrainians for fighting back? Nowhere. But Israel after was attacked, they have been fighting their enemies on 7 fronts and the world turned against them. Why?

Because hatred for the Jews is a spiritual war against God.

Israel is the apple of God’s eye. (Zechariah 2:8) Those who hate the Jews, hate God. In fact, those who hate the Jews are the pawns of the devil. Satan has tried to destroy the Jews down through history by using the Babylonians, Persians, Assyrians, Egyptians, Hittites, and Nazis. Why? Because God made promises to the Jewish people and if Satan can wipe out the Jews, then God cannot fulfill His promises.

But Numbers 23:19 assures us, “God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?”

God promised Abraham in Genesis 13:15, “All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever.”

God also promised Jacob in Genesis 28:13, “There above it stood the Lord, and he said: “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying.”

And here is another promise to the nation of Israel:

Jeremiah 31:35–36 says, “Thus says the Lord, who gives the sun for light by day and the fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the Lord of hosts is his name: “If this fixed order departs from before me, declares the Lord, then shall the offspring of Israel cease from being a nation before me forever.”

Did you catch that? If it were possible to stop the sun from shining and change the course of the moon and suspend the laws of nature, only then would Israel cease to be a nation. But God is in control, therefore, we can conclude that Israel is here to stay.

The first major sign of the end times was the birth of Israel as a nation on May 14, 1948. This miraculous event was the fulfillment of Ezekiel 37 written 2,600 years ago. This was also the first time the Jewish people had sovereign control for the land of Israel since 605 BC when the Babylonians invaded Jerusalem.

Millions of Jews live in Israel today but not all. Ezekiel 39:28 says, “Then they will know that I am the Lord their God, for though I sent them into exile among the nations, I will gather them to their own land, not leaving any behind.” There may come a time when the antisemitism gets so bad that every Jewish person would move to Israel for protection.

Finally, Zechariah 12:2-3 says, “Behold, I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that causes reeling to all the peoples around; and when the siege is against Jerusalem, it will also be against Judah. 3 It will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it will be severely injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it”

We are living in Biblical times and I expect to see the anti-Zionists continue in their attempts to destroy Israel but they will find themselves fighting against God.
