Spring in Galilee - IsraTours
New York City was once the gate of mercy through which immigrants passed.
Times have changed and New York Harbor is no longer receiving the destitute and oppressed.
A GATE TO HEAVEN
Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, "Surely the LORD is in this place, and I did not know it." He was afraid and said, "How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven" (Genesis 26:16-17).
THE MERCY GATE
In the book of Acts 3:1-10 we read about Peter and John who went to the temple to pray. A man who had been lame from his mother's womb was sitting at the gate, which was called Beautiful or the Mercy Gate. Peter, and John, fixed their gaze on the lame man and said, "Look at us!" Peter said, "I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth—walk!" Then he seized the lame man by the right hand and raised him up. Immediately the lame man's feet and his ankles were strengthened. He stood upright and began to walk. The now ex-lame man entered the temple with Peter and John, walking and leaping and praising God.
TWO COMINGS
The Mercy Gate faces the Mount of Olives on the eastern side of Jerusalem it is also known as the Golden or Eastern Gate. The Mercy Gate is closely associated with the Messiah. Fulfilling Prophet Zechariah's prophecy Jesus entered through that gate on Palm Sunday.
FIRST REDEMPTION
(Zechariah 9:9) Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; He is just and endowed with salvation, humble, and mounted on a donkey, even on a colt, the foal of a donkey." First redemption is to pay the price.
SECOND REDEMPTION
Jesus came first to bring God's mercy and grace, but when He returns He will come with judgment and retribution. Mercy Gate speaks of the first and also the second coming of Christ, grace and judgment.
Second redemption is the actual possession of anything already paid for.
America needs no doctrines, but mercy
It needs compassion, no more smug conceit
It needs refinement in things that made it
America the great exceeding the ages
The forces within that make it crumble
With careless reflections on history's past
Make no provision for history's hope…
The columns of freedom begin to falter
The worm beneath them gorged on its spoils
Meant to endure for epochs of time
Now not considered, estranged tomorrow
Much less to prolong the founders' legacy
With ardor they strived to build a better life
For self and those that would embrace
The values of freedom, mercy and grace
Which made this nation home of the brave
that which has been lost is now found
Whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’ If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. Stay in that house,
