After many years of study, Prayer, saililng and begging most of the leading European Monarchs to fund his trip West; Christopher Columbus had a breakthrough in 1492. Thanks to the help of his great friend Father Juan Perez, who Providentially was also the Confessor to Queen Isabella of Spain; and The final Victory over the Muslims in Granada. Spain; King Ferdinand and his Queen were so thankful to God for so Great a Victory; they were willing to Fund an Expedition to the West.
As Columbus was gathering his crew for three fast-sailing Caravells, called the Pinta, Nina and the Santa Maria; the last of the Jews, who had been given 3 months to Get Out of Europe set sail for North Africa and eventually the old promised lands of Israel.
1492 saw the Muslims thrown out of Western Europe consolidating their power in Persia (Arabia), Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and other African Strongholds.
1492 saw the Catholic Inquisition turn its hatred for heresy on the unrepentant Jews and their “Final Solution” was to expell all Jews from Europe. Hitler picked up this same Demon of Seething Anti-Semitism and sought to exterminate the entire Jewish race.
Pre-dawn August 3, 1492, found Christopher Columbus kneeling on the dock receiving Holy Communion. He was then rowed out to take command of his Flag Ship, the Santa Maria; and in the name of Jesus and filled with Praise to God and humble Joy; they set sail. As they left the harbor, the passed the last of the ships filled with dejected and deposed Jews headed for the lands of Islam. Little did they know that Columbus was to lead the way to the first nation to welcome the Jews freely in accordance with the Charge in Deuteronomy: “Blessed are those nations which Bless Israel and Cursed be those nations that curse Israel.”
After the Revolution; George Washington told a Rabbi, “You will always be welcome to practice your Religion in America.” Wow has America been Blessed like no other country.
The U.S.A. became so strong that we literally saved millions of Jews by Defeating, Afolph Hitler in the Second World War. America’s 33rd President Harry Truman had the great honor to be first National Leader Recognize the new nation of Israel on May 14, 1948.
1492 SAW CHRISTOPHER CARRY CHRIST TOWARD THE ULTIMATE NATIONAL SAVIOR OF ISRAEL; AMERICA, WHO WOULD ONE DAY BE CALLED THE GREAT SATAN BY ISLAMIC TRRORISTS DETERMINED TO DESTROY ISRAEL. May God who directed all things in 1492 Continue to Bless His 2 most favored nations on Earth, Israel and the United States of America.
