| | Jews ordered to register in east Ukraine | | Jews in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk where pro-Russian militants have taken over government buildings were told they have to "register" with the Ukrainians who are trying to make the city become part of Russia, according to Ukrainian and Israeli media.
Jews emerging from a synagogue say they were handed leaflets that ordered the city's Jews to provide a list of property they own and pay a registration fee "or else have their citizenship revoked, face deportation and see their assets confiscated," reported Ynet News, Israel's largest news website.

| | Re: Jews ordered to register in east Ukraine | | Thank you for posting this, I was just about to do the same.
Coming soon... Will Christians register when they are asked to?
Will we call some of them "bad Christians" if they don't obey? |

Hebrews 10:34
New International Version (NIV)
34 You suffered along with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions.

| | The only group asked to register? | | If these Jews are the only group of people being asked to register would they be in the right if they did not do so?
It has fearful undertones in my opinion.

| | Re: Jews ordered to register in east Ukraine | | I think we all admire folks who put their lives on the line before and during WW2 to rescue Jews who they believed were destined for extermination. Is not registering a precursor to eventual extermination? Thorny questions and I for one do not like them - either.
What say about this possibility?

On a personal level this is a "what if" questions and for the most part I do try to stay away from them. I honestly don't have an answer of what I would in "what if" scenario. I can answer with how I think I would respond and how in CHRIST I would hope I would respond but in the end I trust if I find myself in that kind of situation the HOLY SPIRIT would lead me to know what to say.
God bless

| | Re: | | Yes, I know, MaryJane, but I can't help but think about it when I watch "The Hiding Place".
The Bible says in Galatians that there is "no such law", when it comes to the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
What are the implications of that?
If you speed are you breaking God's law? If you don't wear a seatbelt (like David Wilkerson) are you breaking God's law? If you hide Jews and deceive the Germans about it, did you sin? |
