Anyone should be able to see, just by reading a newspaper or looking out through a window, that peace is not coming to the Middle East or to any region on earth through man's own effort. Historical records contain enough evidence of that. Without Yahweh on our side, we won't have peace.
There are warnings given to us in the Scriptures by Yahweh and we have seen that what Yahweh told us from the beginning, has come to pass exactly as it was foretold. Godworship brings curses! Tension and hatred between and within nations, cities and families are caused by sin. Sin is coming to a peak, just as Yahweh warned us through His servants the prophets. Almost complete and total destruction, such as has never been seen before, is coming upon this planet, and mankind, because of Godworship. Knowing this, why would we still want to hang on to traditions that stem from abominable Godworship?
Yahweh is provoked by Gods. It also provokes Him when His own people call on Him with pagan titles like all the other Godworshipping nations address their Gods, rather than giving glory and honor to His holy Name by using it. He even says that the Gods and those who worship them are an abomination to Him.
Deuteronomy 7:25-26—
25 You must burn the images of their gods (elohim, teraphim) in the fire. You must not covet; lust after, the silver or gold that covers them, nor take it for yourselves, or you will be ensnared and entrapped by it, for it is an abomination to Yahweh your Father.
26 You must not bring an abomination into your house, or you will be doomed to destruction; cherem, just like it. You must utterly detest and abhor it, for it is an accursed thing set apart for cherem.
Isayah 48:1-5—
1 Hear this, O house of Yaaqob, who are called by the name of Israyl, and have come forth from the waters of Yahdah, who vow by the Name of Yahweh, and make mention of; call upon, the Father of Israyl, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
2 For they call themselves by the holy city, and lean on the Father of Israyl; Yahweh of hosts is His Name.
3 I have declared the former things from the beginning; they went forth from My mouth, and I made them known. I acted suddenly, and they came to pass.
4 Because I knew that you were obstinate, and your neck was an iron sinew, and your brow bronze;
5 I declared these things to you even from the beginning; before it came to pass I revealed them to you, so you could not say; My God (El) has done them, nor, My graven image or my molded image has commanded them.
Zephanyah 1:4-6—
4 I will stretch out My hand against Yahdah, and against all the inhabitants of Yerusalem. I will cut off the remnant of Baal; the Lord, and from this place the name of the Chemarim; the god-priests, with the priests.
5 Those who worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; those who worship and vow oaths by the Name of Yahweh, and yet vow oaths by the name of their god-king, Malcham; Milcom, Molech,
6 With those who have turned away from following Yahweh, who do not seek Yahweh nor inquire of Him!
It's Godworship (Lawbreaking and calling on God and Lord instead of Yahweh) that is bringing terrible curses upon this earth. Yahweh just allows the curses to come in order to allow mankind to learn a lesson.
Psalm 83:16-18—
16 Fill their faces with shame; contempt and dishonor! Then men will seek Your Name, O Yahweh!
17 May they be humiliated and dismayed for ever and ever! May they perish in dishonor!
18 Let men know that You, Whose Name Alone is YAHWEH, are the Supreme Head over all the earth!
Psalm 40:16—
May all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You! May those who love Your salvation always say: May Yahweh be magnified!
Isayah 55:6-7—
6 Seek Yahweh while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near;
7 Let the wicked forsake his own way and the unrighteous man his own thoughts. Let him return to Yahweh, and He will have mercy upon him; return to our Father, for He will abundantly pardon.
II Chronicles 6:24-27—
24 Or if Your people Israyl are defeated in front of an enemy, because they have sinned against You, but they return and confess Your Name, and they pray and make supplication in front of You in this House,
25 Then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of Your people Israyl, and bring them back to the land which You gave to them and to their fathers.
26 When the heavens are shut up, and there is no rain because Your people have sinned against You, when they pray toward this place and confess Your Name, and turn from their sin, because they are afflicted from curses,
27 Then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of Your servants, Your people Israyl, so You may teach them the right way in which to walk, and send rain on the land that You gave to Your people for an inheritance.
Psalm 119:1-2—
1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the Law of Yahweh!
2 Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Yahweh with their whole heart.Excerpt from Can We Avoid The Next Holocaust By Yisrayl Hawkins
