Sons
and daughters of spiritual "Jacob" (His beloved people) will be
gathered from all the nations
"every one who is called by My Name". (Isaiah 43:5-7
NEB).
It is for this reason that Jehovah will sacrifice certain nations through
drought, famine, plague, sword (war), and "fire", until His people
are gathered to spiritual "Jerusalem". (Isaiah 43:1-4
&
Zech 10:8-12 NEB).
Jehovah has already thrown open the gates of Lebanon that a "fire"
might devour among their "majestic ones" in preparation for the
spiritual "highway" of God and the place designated for His people
to dwell. (Zech 11:1-3) (Isaiah 19:23 25 NEB). |

Jehovah will lead His people "into Gilead and Lebanon until there is no more room for them." (Zech 10:10
NEB). |

All nations
are to celebrate the festivals of booths, including those who warred against
the creation of heavenly "Jerusalem."
(Zech 14:16-19). |

As Jehovah brings about the
prophesied deliverance of His people, Godless nations shall become alarmed and leave their "separate wars" to wage war against the Messiah.
(See Pages: 22/11/87A &
22/11/87B) (See 2 Esdras 13:29-34 NEB).
In what ways will they do this? By making personal sacrifices in an attempt to
counteract the "four families" of destruction and undo the work of
the Deliverer. (Jer 15:1-3) (Rom 11:26). Already, they are actively demonstrating
support and lending financial aid and resources to those nations currently being
sacrificed by Jehovah. Their "dungy idols" of sport and entertainment are being
employed by aid agencies to convey demonically inspired propaganda to inspire
the masses to obey the call to arms and "Lend your aid" in the war
against Almighty God. (Joel 3:9-12 NWT & NEB). |

Remaining
ones of Egypt, Assyria and Israel shall unite in their devotion to Jehovah.
Instead of being a threat to world peace, they will become "a blessing"
to all nations "in the centre of the world". (Isaiah 19:23 25 NEB). |
