Clash of Civilizations
"Every civilization sees itself as the center of the world
and writes its history as the central drama of human history."
Samuel P. Huntington
God made a plan, a treasured, eternal plan
when long ago He chose Sarah and Abraham.
God didn't say life would be easy or guaranteed,
they were asked to honor Him in word and deed.
Obedient children, He welcomes as His own;
without doubt, our God made His nation known.
One day, we Christians will rapture up to heaven;
God has prepared for us the New Jerusalem.
On earth, as foretold, great Tribulation begins
and if you've read Revelation, you know who wins.
A Jewish remnant will survive to share salvation
proclaiming Jesus' death, burial and resurrection.
Israelites were promised a kingdom on earth;
they value burial in the land of their birth.
As they are raised when time’s end has come,
they will resurrect to an earth-bound kingdom
God promised that a ruler from David's offspring
would reign - Christ Jesus will return, this time as king.
During His reign, treasured covenants ascribed
to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the twelve tribes
are fulfilled. As God works out His blessed intention
troubled times come; but Israel stays His nation.
All those who believe, trust, worship and obey Him,
will see God fulfill His promises to the brim.
