Are you aware that God in the Bible said before the great tribulation there would be "days of vengeance" upon the city of Jerusalem?
Jesus spoke of this in Luke 21:
20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
- If you are in Jerusalem when this happens, flee to the mountains. Depart out of Jerusalem.
- If you are in the countries, don't enter Jerusalem
22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
Last night, they were telling the people who were in Gaza to leave. The newscaster said, "But where would they go?" I said, "Well ... I wouldn't go to Jerusalem."
(I know what Jesus said in the Bible. But as I understand it, they don't believe in Jesus and likely would ignore that which is in the Bible that HE said.)

We read about "The Days of Vengeance" in the following two chapters.
Matthew 24
2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
(This temple was likely destroyed during the Romans empire. According to Wikipedia, there were plans to build a third temple but it was not done. So we conclude that the temple at Jerusalem which Jesus spoke of has already been destroyed.)
3 And as HE sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto HIM privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in MY name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
1 And HE looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.
2 And HE saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
3 And HE said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
4 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
5 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, HE said,
6 As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. (We think this may have happened during the Roman CE and the plans for building the 3rd temple, according to Wikipedia, have not been done.)
7 And they asked HIM, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?
8 And HE said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in MY name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
3 And as HE sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto HIM privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in MY name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
(The first thing to watch for are preachers coming in the name of Jesus saying they are Christians and saying "Jesus is Lord.". They shall deceive many."
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for MY name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
15 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:)
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for MY name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
15 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:)
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
(This shows us some of the elect will be on this earth during the days of the great tribulation.)
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
(They will think Christ has returned for they will see preachers performing miracles. Jesus warns us.)
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, HE is in the desert; go not forth: behold, HE is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, HE is in the desert; go not forth: behold, HE is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
(For when Christ comes it will be through the clouds and all will see HIM. So don't look for HIM in one country or city.)
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but MY words shall not pass away.
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but MY Father only.
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but MY words shall not pass away.
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but MY Father only.
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
(The surrounding of Jerusalem with armies is a very big sign showing us that we are close to the coming of Jesus and the judgments of God upon this world through the great tribulations to be brought upon this world by God. See Revelation 8-9-16 However, we might have a few years before this great tribulation happens for it could take some time for the "days of vengeance" to be completed.)
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
(I believe this means one will be taken up into heaven to escape the tribulation of the end times, but the other will be left to go through the great tribulation of God that comes upon this world.)
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
(Watch the way you are living. For the apostle Peter tells us: "Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM (by Jesus when HE returns) in peace, without spot, and blameless."
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

Luke 21
2 And HE saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
3 And HE said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
4 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
5 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, HE said,
6 As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. (We think this may have happened during the Roman CE and the plans for building the 3rd temple, according to Wikipedia, have not been done.)
7 And they asked HIM, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?
8 And HE said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in MY name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
(Instead, turn to God and follow what God shows you by HIS Holy Spirit. God will give HIS wisdom to those who ask HIM. James 1:5)
9 But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.
10 Then said HE unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for MY name's sake.
13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17 And ye shall be hated of all men for MY name's sake.
18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
19 In your patience possess ye your souls.
💥 20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
29 And HE spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;
30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.
31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but MY words shall not pass away.
34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, (consider your way of life) and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
9 But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.
10 Then said HE unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

(Prayer over all troubles and concerns connects us to God and makes us accounted worthy to escape all these things that are to come upon this
earth .)
37 And in the day time HE was teaching in the temple; and at night HE went out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives.
38 And all the people came early in the morning to HIM in the temple, for to hear HIM.

In this current War between Israel and Hamas:
Israel is currently attacking Gaza where Hamas has some of it's headquarters. Israel told all of it's citizens (before it began destroying Gaza) to leave Gaza.
Many nations surrounding Israel are enemies of Israel. Watch for them to join the fight against Israel. (We printed several maps which we photographed from CNN. You might want to keep these before you if you watch newscasts.)

Know this: The "days of vengeance" are ordained by God and told us in the Holy Bible.
(See: Matthew 24 & Luke 21)
Beware that you end up praying against the will of God. For these days told about in the scriptures will happen prior to the great tribulation and the coming of Jesus.
What do we do? Check our way of life by the New Testament scriptures and correct ourselves, conforming our life to scriptures immediately, as needed, for after the end of this world, we must all appear before the judgments seat of Christ where we will receive "reward" for either good or evil according to the way we have lived on this earth.
2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
This is definitely a call for us to correct ourselves while there is still time.
Israel just announced they are going after Hamas like never before.
(I really believe this is the beginning of the days of vengeance spoken of in the Bible by Jesus in Matthew 24 & Luke 21.)
