The ArabIsraeli conflict dates backward to the dawn of biblical revelation and extends forward to the muchdreaded Battle of Armageddon. The times are trying, are they not? In the interest of helping folk discern the times, I think we do well to color todays world news with yesterdays biblical hues. A fascinating picture emerges, one that takes us to mysterious Arabia. According to Genesis, sin entered a garden paradise called Edena touch of heaven once located in what is modern Iraq and Iran today. Much as human catastrophe is said to have originated there, Revelation informs that human misery will be terminated from there, when it culminates in a climactic and cataclysmic final showdown. In Making Peace with the Warriors of the Sand, youll hear ancient Scripture predicting how forces marshaled in proximity to ancient Eden will oneday stealthily slither into the Holy Land and, like a python, wrap themselves around a reconstituted Israel. You will learn how the relentless and merciless assault upon humankind that began in ancient Iraq and moved to and through Israel, will again manifest and move aggressively in the regionand be stopped, finally. The serpent of old who is the devil and Satan will be defeated and bound, according to the Rev. 202, after which paradise will be restored. With the Kingdoms inauguration will come a cessation of global hostilities. Peace alas! With secular and sacred eyes looking intently at the Middle East today, I believe that a fresh biblical assessment is in orderand one that pays more deliberate attention to Arab peoples. This book answers to that need. What most do not realize is that the Old Testament is not just about Jews and that the New Testament isnot just about Christians. While the Old Testament does focus upon Abrahams literal Hebrew descendants and while the New Testament does indeed focus upon Jesus and make faithapplications to Gentile folk descended from Abraham in a spiritual sense, the Scriptures also speak of Abrahams other childrena group that Ill here refer to as the mysterious warriors of the sand. Both lands and peoples of the Middle East are significantand bewildering. The word mysterious denotes something difficult, hard to grasp and puzzling. It comes from the old French word mystique, a term that similarly conjures up notions of an aura of wonderment. Believing that Christians and Jews would do well to have a look at the other very mysterious Arabian people of the Book, I have set my gaze their way, to consider what the Bible has to say about my estranged Arab cousins. Who are the Arab people? Are they unwanted, vanquished castaways in the biblical economy? Are they a subclass of demoninspired lesser beings, destined to serve as cannon fodder for Gods armies at the battle of Armageddon? Does Scripture indicate any abiding covenant promises that benefit them or are Abrahams other descendants removed from the pale of biblical graces and forever banished to the backwaters of Divine favor? Are Biblebelieving European types obliged to disdain Arab peoples and ideas? If so, why so? If not, what then? How are JudeoChristians to be toward Arabs, in a world set on edge since 911? What does it mean to be a peacemaker in the current economy where Islamicinspired angst is ubiquitous? At a time when Israel is making its bid for its existence and where America is embroiled in wars and rumors of wars with Arabrelated folk, howare we to love these other people? If we are, in fact, to love those othersas I believe we aremight we do well to better understand them in light of biblical perspectives and principles? In the process of trying to come to terms with them, might we be well served to come to terms with ourselves in relation to them? With these and other questions in focus, we will here take a reasonably long stare in the direction of the mysterious people of the east, the warriors of the sand. Staring speaks of fixing ones wideopen gaze upon a particular person or object. Staring som
