“Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
“Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. (Matthew 5:10-12, ESV)
When the terrorists in Syria recently charged the ancient Christian village of Maaloula in the Syrian mountainside where the minority Christians lived for almost 2000 years, do you think they felt blessed? According to eyewitnesses, the moslem terrorists told villagers “‘Either you convert to Islam or you will be beheaded,”. The village of Maaloula is one of the last on this earth which still spoke the ancient language of Aramaic. Aramaic was the language spoken by Jesus Himself and can only be found in Syria, in these last days.
What has been happening during the violent Syrian civil war has already been repeated in Iraq, with one million Chaldean Christians being persecuted, killed and displaced and in Iran and other middle eastern countries. Pakistan and India are catching up with their cousins in the middle east and doing the same to God’s people.
These are just some of the latest examples of what has been happening to followers of Jesus Christ since before He was even crucified in 33 AD in Jerusalem. Jesus warned of this and this warning has been fulfilled time after time after time for almost 2000 years now. Persecution is occurring in not just these Arab countries, but in almost every corner of this earth.

THE SIGNATURE OF JESUS APPEARS IN GENESIS 1:1; NUMBERS 15:39; ZECHARIAH 12:10
The signature of Jesus is not just all over Creation but in the Bible from beginning to End. Right off in the Book of Genesis 1:1, we have His Signature!!! Here is His actual Signature in the Original Hebrew which Moses wrote:
בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ׃
This is the Hebrew for “In the Beginning God created the Heavens and the Earth”.
The Hebrew in RED: אֵ֥ת is not translated because it could not be. It is only two letters – Aleph and Tav – or as we say in English – THE BEGINNING AND THE END!!! (In the New Testament Book of Revelation 22:13, He says “I am the Alpha and the Omega” – Same translation! In the Greek it is “Ἄλφα καὶ τὸ Ὦ“. These facts are honey to those of us who love every jot and tittle of God’s Word – ALL of it!!! Woohoo!!There are more statements from the Creator about Himself in the Scriptures! In this second and final part of the Superiority of Christ, we examine some of the I AM statements as well as some of the Gates of Jerusalem! Learn not just about those statements but the importance of theGATES of Jerusalem to the Believer TODAY: THE GATES: THE FISH GATE, THE VALLEY GATE ETC….
