God's Message, from the God who lights up the day with sun and brightens the night with moon and stars, who whips the ocean into a billowy froth, whose name is God-of-the-Angel-Armies:
If this ordered cosmos ever fell to pieces, fell into chaos before me - God's Decree -
Then and only then might Israel fall apart and disappear as a nation before me.
God's Message:
If the skies could be measured with a yardstick and the earth explored to its core,
Then and only then would I turn my back on Israel, disgusted with all they've done.
God's Decree.
Jeremiah 31:35-37
The Message Bible
Ok, that IS a modern English translation, so let's try a more traditional reading of the same text:
This is what the Lord says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and the stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar - the Lord Almighty is his name.
Only if these decrees vanish from my site, declares the Lord, will the descendants of Israel ever cease to be a nation before me.
This is what the Lord says:
Only if the heavens above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth below be searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they have done declares the Lord.
(NIV)
So there you have it! The only way to defeat Israel is by removing God's protection from them, and the only way to do that, If the scriptures are true, (and I believe they are), is to:
1. Somehow turn the entire cosmos into chaos! (The word "Cosmos" means "Order" - and the universe is very ordered and precise in everything, from the macro huge stars and galaxies to the micro tiny atoms and smaller). Of course, if the cosmos ever broke down into chaos, you would succeed in killing all the Jews, but along with them, everything else, including yourself!
2. Measure the skies (Or heavens) with a yardstick and completely explore all the earth. This one seems more attainable, until you realize that "the skies" may also mean "the heavens" - which is all the space-time universe! Even if it did only mean our little earth, it still is an impossible task, our earth is tiny compared to the universe, but compared to us, it is immensely big! Then we must go about and explore all the earth. Most of our earth is covered with water, and we have very little idea of what lies far below.
Just an hour ago before this writing, I watched the news and heard an Arab woman say that she wished and hoped that God would destroy Israel. I hope and pray that she somehow finds this site and page, because here are her instructions on how to do just that - once again, good luck, and good bye. JB
