THE DAY OF ATONEMENT

There was a day in history - ONE DAY- when Father God provided PERMANENT ATONEMENT for the sin of the world. On the Hill of Calvary (Skull), near the summit of the Mount of Olives, Passover of the year 29AD, Father God sent His Son to take on Himself the sin of the world. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." Yeshua became the scapegoat and blame bearer of the guilt and sin of the whole world satisfying God's perfect judgment and covering man's rebellion.

This event was foretold from the days of Adam. It was prefigured by the ram that became a substitute for Isaac on Mount Moriah, by the annual Day of Atonement, the Temple sacrifices and foretold exactly by the prophets David and Isaiah (Psalm 22; Isaiah 53)

Because the Atonement is an historical ACCOMPLISHED FACT it cannot be undone or reversed. It is true whether we believe it or not. It remains for all people everywhere (Jew and gentile) to KNOW this fact and to PUT THEIR FAITH in it so that they can be cleansed from all sin. No matter how sinful or shameful our past, God Himself, by this act, has taken the blame. He has made a way for all (ANYONE AND EVERYONE) to come home to where we belong - the realm of the love and care of God, Our Heavenly Father. We are not asked to become religious but to RECOGNIZE A FACT and RECEIVE perfect reconciliation through His Atonement.

"All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all." (Isaiah 53.6)

Through most of the media's twisted interpretation of world events and fanatic Islam’s propaganda antisemitism and hatred of Israel (both within and without the Church) has exploded worldwide since October 7th. This hatred is as old as Pharaoh and Haman and as wicked as Nazism. It continues today through fanatic Islam whose epicenter is Iran and the ignorance of secular humanism which cannot accept God's plan for Israel and world redemption. Its influence is being felt in college campuses and in national parliaments and drawing many nations into a dangerous hatred of Israel.

The Bible assures us that when Israel comes back from the nations she will receive a powerful revelation of the reality of the Atonement. Simultaneously the gospel will be carried by millions of workers calling the nations out of their sin to put their faith in the Atonement and be reconciled to God.
"And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn." (Zechariah 12.10)
"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. (Matthew 24.14)
