The United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is supposed to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of terrorist-sponsoring nations like Iran. Associated Press has reviewed a not-yet public report by the IAEA stating that Iran now has a stockpile of highly enriched uranium 30 times the limit of the Obama-Iran nuclear deal.

The report has IAEA head Rafael Grossi wringing his hands because Iran won’t allow UN inspectors access to the nuke facilities, and Iran now has enough uranium to build “several nuclear weapons.” Grossi inherited this situation from his predecessors, who essentially turned a blind eye to Iran’s nuclear ambitions for over 25 years. Stopping Iran’s nuke program is a ruse.

Barack Obama sent Iran billions of US dollars on a pallet and negotiated a deal with the terrorist-sponsoring state that essentially guaranteed Iran would have nuclear weapons.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on May 27 that Joe Biden is pressing European allies to back away from further censoring Iran for its record stockpile of nuclear material. WSJ said France and Britain are concerned that Biden lacks a strategy for dealing with Iran’s nuclear advances.

This is nothing new. US Presidents since George W Bush have been lax in stopping Iran, which has consistently insisted on eliminating Israel from the face of the earth and is a main sponsor of global terrorism. Only Donald Trump was severe on Iran in an effort to stop its nuclear program and terrorist sponsorship.

In June 2005, The Daily Jot reported that then IAEA chief Mohamed El Baradei was appointed to a third term as head of the IAEA largely because US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice gave him the green light with hopes of stronger enforcement against Iran. The Daily Jot said,

“To date, El Baradei has been reluctant to crack down on Iran. He said last November that unless he sees the intent to build a nuclear weapon along with a delivery system, then there is no weapons program. He has apparently turned a blind eye to the Russians, who are providing nuclear technology and scientists who are assisting Iran in expanding its missile system dimensions to carry a nuclear-sized payload, the North Korean missile experts and tunnel building engineers, and not to forget China’s missile experts and technology.”

At that time, the IAEA had at its head an Egyptian-born Islamist giving lip service to stopping one of the most radical Islamic states from pursuing nuclear weapons. That didn’t work too well. Today, we have Great Britain and France wanting to take a hard stance against Iran and its terrorist proliferation, and Joe Biden essentially says, ‘No, no, hold off. We don’t want to stir up any more reasons for Muslims to vote against me.”

You know, the Bible says there will be times like this. The Apostle Paul writes in 2 Timothy 3:13, “evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” It’s almost too surreal to believe. Bush lets the feckless UN handle Iran. Obama sends Iran billions and strikes an agreement for a nuclear Iran. Biden gives Iran a pass. This is no less than, say it with me… Stupidocrisy.

On Sunday, May 19, reports came out of Iran that Iran’s dictator president Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, and a host of other Iranian officials and bodyguards had experienced a “hard landing” when their helicopter went down. Turns out that the hard landing actually was a crash that killed all on board.

Iranian news agencies reported that Raisi and others had been “martyred” because they were killed in service to their people. Known as the “Butcher of Tehran” for his brutality to dissidents and women, Raisi also was an outspoken enemy of Israel and the United States. In fact, Iran is funding Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorists in the war against Israel. In his death, there may be prophetic lessons.

With that as the background, this untimely end to Iran’s extreme and radical leader should be a warning sign not only to the extremists in terrorist-led Iran but also to Joe Biden, the United States, and the church.

In Genesis 12:3, the LORD said of Israel, “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curses thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

Raisi and his minions may well have suffered at the hand of God because of what they are doing and have done to Israel. Most certainly, there is historic documentation that when leaders in the US go against Israel, there is usually a natural, political, or economic disaster that follows. Americans, brace yourselves because Biden has been part and parcel to Iran’s and Hamas’ funding for “humanitarian purposes” that has allowed these terrorists to war against Israel.

There are “replacement” theologists, which many mainline churches follow, who contend that Christianity replaced the Jews as God’s chosen people. They assert that Israel of today is not the Israel of the Bible, not God’s covenant land. They further claim that modern Israel is so sinful and against the precepts of God that it is disqualified from being the Israel of the Bible. This is a very false and dangerous theology—one held at the risk of divine retribution – an example we have seen with Raisi and the US is experiencing as a nation in crisis.

Throughout the Bible, we see that God uses the nations to chastise Israel for its turning away. But because of the harshness of those nations against Israel, they, too, are judged and chastised. Examples are found in Zechariah 12, 14; Ezekiel 38, 39; Joel 3; Jude 1; Jeremiah 25; Revelation, and many more.

In the prophetic end times, the Holy Scriptures are very clear that Christ returns to restore Israel, and the Jews are once again and forevermore His people, and He will be their God.

In Ezekiel 39:28-29, the LORD says, “Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there. Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, says the LORD God.”

Many will say that Raisi got what he deserved, and they rejoice at his death, for his life was evil. But will there be the same rejoicing among those chastised for their replacement doctrine and for their leaders who say they support Israel but are actively working against her? Something to ponder.
