Exodus 3:5-6
5 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground .
6 Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.

Ex-CIA Head: Gaza Pullback
was"Worst," Olmert´s Plan Even Worse
17:41 May 31, '06 / 4
Sivan 5766
by Hillel Fendel
James Woolsey, a former CIA Director, explains succinctly why Ehud Olmert's second disengagement plan is a bad idea.
Writing for the Wall Street Journal on Monday, ex-CIA Director James Woolsey ripped apart Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's plan, which, he says, represents a determination to reinforce failure.
Woolsey sums up Olmert's plan as follows: "The withdrawal of 50,000 to 100,000 Israeli settlers from 90% to 95% of the West Bank and major portions of Jerusalem," together with a redeployment of the IDF near the security fence currently under construction.
He objects to the plan for the following reasons:
- This approach was tried in Gaza and has failed utterly, "producing the worst set of results imaginable."
- Creating a West Bank that looks like today's Gaza would be many times worse, including rockets and shelling into virtually all of Israel.
- Not only Israel, but also moderate Jordan, would be threatened by a terrorist state.
- Israeli concessions make the U.S. look weak, and suggest that the U.S. is fleeing from terrorism once again instead of fighting it.
- Three Israeli attempts at accommodation with the Arabs - Oslo, Lebanon, and Gaza - have failed in the past 13 years because they were based on the premise that only Israeli concessions can displace Palestinian despair. "But it seems increasingly clear that the Palestinian cause is fueled by hatred and contempt."
Israeli concessions indeed enhance Palestinian hope, Woolsey writes, "but not of a reasonable two-state solution--rather a hope that they will actually be able to destroy Israel... When they speak of "ending Israeli occupation" they mean of Tel Aviv."
He adds that a "two-state solution can become a reality when the Palestinians are held to the same standards as Israelis - to the requirement that Jewish settlers in a West Bank-Gaza Palestinian state would be treated with the same decency that Israel treats its Arab citizens. Until then, three failures in 13 years should permit us to evaluate the wisdom of further concessions."
Woolsey bases much of his opposition to Olmert's plan on the failure of last year's Gaza withdrawal. Among the "worst set of results imaginable" that it produced, he lists the following:
* A heavy presence by Al Qaeda, Hizbullah, and even some Iranian Revolutionary Guard units;
* street fighting between Hamas and Fatah, and now Hamas assassination attempts against Fatah's intelligence chief and Jordan's ambassador;
* rocket and mortar attacks against nearby towns inside Israel;
* and a perceived vindication for Hamas, which took credit for the withdrawal and thus helped Hamas's victory in the Palestinian Authority elections.
They, whoever they are, would call this a reality check! How many times do you have to be slapped in the face before you get the message? The Arabs of Palestine are filled with hate and contempt for the
Jews. They have raised an entire generation from the cradle on this hate and contempt. That generation nurtured on barbarianism has now taken control in the form of Hamas. They do not hide their barbarous attitude toward the Jews, and the Jewish State of Israel. Democracy in the proposed future Palestinian State will be built upon the Koran, and the forever murdering of the Jews.
I noticed in the news today about negotiations with the Iranians over their nuclear intentions, and that the Administration stressed the penalties of isolation ship should the Iranians not respond. Where are the penalties for the Palestinian Arabs? How many years before they forfeit their homes like the Jewish Settlers are forfeiting theirs? There are no penalties, there are no deadlines for the Palestinian Arabs. The Road Map is a hollow one-sided peace plan that defies all norms of negotiation. I believe the reason why is because none of the negotiators expect the Palestinian barbarians to ever accept peace anyway.
Folks, the Road Map should be scraped. The problem is no one has thought about an alternative plan. A plan with real penalties and real deadlines would be more appropriate, but the best plan, the smart plan, is to get out of the way with what God is doing in the Holy Land. We as gentiles have no business directing the disposition of the Holy Land, Jerusalem, or the Temple Mount. I'm convinced we did the right thing by invading both Afghanistan and Iraq. It may even be right to finish the Job by invading Syria. We need not worry about Iran because the Bible has already told us God will deal with them according to His time schedule. Where we went wrong was by joining with the Russians and Europeans by adopting their Road Map. Folks, if you remember your history, when did the sweeping defeat of Saddam's Army suddenly come back to bite us? Think about the Road Map! We are walking into affairs where gentiles dare not tread! We are putting ourselves between the atheist's future plans for the Holy Land, and that which God has already revealed in the Bible about the coming Kingdom. It is dangerous ground, and getting worse by the day. The wrath of the LORD is being pushed into action. The entire world is going to suffer once the LORD is provoked by the resistance to His future plans for the Holy Land.
Jeremiah 7:19-20
19 Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground ; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
KJVFriend, the only safe ground is the good ground. Have you received the LORD Jesus Christ as your Savior? Have you responded to the gospel message? Now is the time for you to come to Christ! What kind of ground are you directing the seed of the Kingdom to fall in your life?
Matthew 13:4-23
4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
8 But other fell into good ground , and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.
23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Shavuot
June 2 - June 3, 2006
The Day the Torah was given -- celebrating the monumental encounter between God and the Israelites at Mount Sinai, an event which changed mankind forever.


Exodus 19:9
9 And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people unto the LORD.
KJV
Tongues of Fire
By
Juergen Buehler
For the Jewish people, Shavuot (Hebrew for "weeks") marks the events described in Exodus 19, when God came down in flames of fire on Mount Sinai and gave the Ten Commandments to the Israelites seven weeks after their Exodus from Egypt. This is considered the moment Israel was born as a nation, called to be a "light to the nations." (Isaiah 49:6)
For Christians, the same festival is known as Pentecost and also recalls the events of Acts chapter 2, when "tongues of fire" descended on 120 followers of Jesus gathered in the Upper Room, fulfilling his promise that "the Comforter" would soon come to them. The Church was born that day, and "endued with power" to fulfill its Great Commission.
A Universal Message
The Ten Commandments gave humanity an expression of God's nature and character - His holiness and glory. God's people were called to reflect that divine character in their daily lives.
The giving of the Law was a most awe-inspiring moment for the Israelites. The Bible indicates they heard the very voice of God speaking forth each commandment. Trembling, they pleaded with Moses that it was too much; that from now on God should just talk to and thru him.
Rabbinical tradition holds that every word God spoke that day was like the stroke of a hammer on an anvil. With each stroke on the anvil, which was Mount Sinai, sparks (or tongues) of fire flew outward. A first century Sage, Rabbi Yochanan, maintained that it split up into seventy languages - matching the languages spoken among the seventy nations. In other words, Israel realized from the beginning that the Torah would be significant not only for Jews, but for all mankind.
It is, therefore, no coincidence that "tongues of fire" would later descend on human flesh on the Day of Pentecost, when praises to God were heard by "devout men, out of every nation under heaven," and "that every man heard them speak in his own language." (Acts 2:5-6) Like Israel at Sinai, the Church received a universal commission to go forth from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth with a message of hope, salvation and love - based on God's very character. It reached the entire known world at that time, and today people from literally every nation, tribe and tongue have been added to the divine movement sparked on the Day of Pentecost.
Tongues of Fire
One of the ancient Hebrew manuscripts found in the Qumran caves is called "The Tongues of Fire" scroll. The fragments that survived tell of how tongues of fire would descend on the High Priest and speak through the Urim and Thurim and the stones on the breastplate of the High Priest. Josephus Flavius gives a similar description of God speaking to the High Priest by illuminating letters engraved on the breastplate. In other words, to Jews of that day tongues of fire represented the unique privilege of the High Priest to communicate with God.What a moment, then, for those who saw tongues of fire descending on the 120 on the Day of Pentecost. The fire did not come down on the High Priest, but on ordinary fishermen from Galilee, yes and even on the women. The message was clear: God wanted to communicate with everyone. Thus Peter stood up and cited the Prophet Joel: "And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, that I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams. And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy." (Acts 2:17-18)
What an anniversary! The first words of the Bible to be written down, and the establishment of the Jews into a nation! The birth of the written Bible, and the birth of the people charged with keeping
God's word as perfectly as is humanly possible. "Without spot or blemish" is the standard with which God charged the Jews. I went down to see an exhibit in Charlotte with some of the Dead Sea Scrolls last week, and I can testify that the Jews kept their charge. New Bible translations of the scriptures are not necessary now that the oldest manuscripts of God's word have been found. The Biblical scrolls are 1000 years older then the oldest manuscripts we had up till then. They go back to before the days of Christ! A translator reading off those Biblical scrolls would read without spot or blemish exactly the same as any of our modern translations of the Bible. The higher critics had theorized that the Bible had gone through any number of redactions as the years went by to make it seem relevant to the passing years, but those theories have been blown away with the Dead Sea Scroll finds. The Bible remains the Bible without spot or blemish! It is not only the higher critics who must bow their heads in shame, but Islam, and the Koran are founded on the premise that the Jews gerrymandered God's word into a Zionist plot to make the Jews appear to be God's chosen people over the Arabs and all others. Islam is built, and stands upon the theory of the higher critics of the Bible. Mohamed identified with the higher critics when he wrote the Koran. The Dead Sea Scrolls prove Islam, and the Koran are nothing more then a great lie, and at the least a great mistake! There is no foundation to their charges against the Jews, and that the Jews manipulated the Bible to say only what they wanted it to say. The Dead Sea Scrolls prove the Koran is a lie! Now, I know that is not a politically correct statement to make, but it is the truth. The Koran can not stand as long as the Dead Sea Scrolls testify that the Jews kept God's Word without applying either spot or blemish!
The New Testament has always avoided the higher critics charges of redaction because our New Testament manuscripts go almost all the way back to the originals. Such charges against the New Testament as were made against the Old Testament, and the Jews just could not pass the test of basic intellectual honesty. The add on, or missing books is the only place they can go with the New Testament. There have been attempts to redact the Bible. Every generation is exposed to those same attempts, and so far every generation has recognized the dishonesty of it all. The recent DaVinci Code hoopla is a case in point as are the phony Gnostic Gospels of Thomas and Judas etc.. These are old attempts to redact the Bible so it appears to favor some cultic philosophies that they would want added to the Bible so they would have some basis of authority. The book is still out on this generation as to whether it will fall into the redactors hands?
Friend, God has spoken clearly to you. His words are recorded in the Bible without spot or blemish! Only the liars and most despicable of each generation dare attack the veracity of God's Word. Here is the record God has left for you:
1 John 5:11-13
11 And this is the record , that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
KJV
The record of God is that His Son would sacrifice Himself as an offering for sin. Only perfection can be accepted by the Holy God of the Bible, and the perfect sacrifice of Christ meets that standard. Friend, God offers the salvation purchased by His Son through Calvary to you. All you need do is come! Won't you put your pride aside, and humbly come and accept His offer? Won't you come to Christ? The record of God to man has this single theme of sacrifice for sin as the only acceptable way to make peace with the only Holy God of the Bible! God has come unto you. Won't you now come unto Christ?
Exodus 20:22-24
22 And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23 Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.
24 An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.

Quartet Close to Transferring
Money to PA
23:51 Jun 03, '06 / 7
Sivan 5766
(IsraelNN.com) American Assistant Secretary of State David Welch said Saturday that the Quartet is close to finalizing a mechanism to transfer aid to the cash-strapped Palestinian Authority (PA). The Quartet is made up of the European Union, the United States, Russia and the United States.
Welch said the details should be finished between in the next three weeks, and possibly beforehand. Their objective is to transfer funds to the PA without their ending up in the coffers of the Hamas terrorist organization, which controls the PA legislature.
Abbas Deploys New Fatah
Militia in Jenin
23:08 Jun 03, '06 / 7
Sivan 5766
by Debbie Berman
In a show of force against the Hamas, Palestinian Chairman Mahmoud Abbas deployed a new Fatah militia in the town of Jenin on Saturday.
Abbas created the Fatah militia, comprised of some 2,500 members, in response to a Hamas militia, headed by Jamal Abu Samhadana, which was deployed in Gaza in May despite Abbas’s strong objections. The Hamas leader has been actively involved in the launch of Kassam rockets on Israel and is linked to the bombing of a US convoy in Gaza in 2003.
Members of the new Fatah militia were garbed in shirts reading "Special Protection Unit" and decorated with a photograph of the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat as they paraded through the streets of Jenin. Scores of militia members were reported to have been carrying assault rifles and pistols.
Jenin based Fatah leader Ata Abu Rmeileh, said as he rallied the newly formed militia “You are here to protect your people and the Palestinian Authority institutions. We are loyal to our people, not like those who have sold themselves to Arab and non-Arab capitals. "
Fatah military sources claimed that their new militia was formed to counter the Hamas militia in an effort to pressure the Hamas to disband their military component.
Abbas spokesman Nabil Amr, stated on Saturday that the PA President would not enter Gaza unless the Hamas agreed to disband its new militia. In addition, on Saturday afternoon, a top Hamas military wing leader, Abdel Hadi Siyam, was shot in the chest in a drive-by shooting.
The argument is if we don't send money to the barbarian Arab Palestinians it will cause a civil war to break out. I hate to be the one giving a reality check, but civil war has already broken out! It is a war
that has nothing to do with money being given, or not being given to the Palestinians to support the government agencies that are suppose to take care of the Palestinian people. No matter how the aid from the quartet gets to the Palestinians you can be assured it will be used to support the civil war that the diplomats are telling us they are preventing. Hamas as the winners of the democratically held Palestinian election have the legal right to be in charge of security. This special protection unit is not only illegal, but clearly a provocation of civil war. The US is on record that it will never negotiate much less send aid to any terrorist organization such as Al Quada or Hamas. Any aid we may agree to send the Palestinian people could only go to Fatah. The Fatah Special Protection Unit already wear the picture of Arafat who controlled every penny that came to the Palestinians in aid. Most of it was socked away in private Swiss bank accounts, but what did get spent in Palestine went almost totally to his Fatah organization which he established. Now, Abbas who was mentored by Arafat wants his Swiss bank accounts. I suspect he is going to get them. That is how the diplomatic game is played in the Holy Land to keep the Road Map peace plan going.
The rottenness of this whole secular Road Map effort should get everyone sick who even comes close to it. What an example of deceitful sin filled national political practices. God has been exposing all this rottenness so the whole world can see. Sadly. the response of this generation has been "who cares!" Folks, this is the Holy Land! We should be greatly concerned with what is happening. This is Bible prophecy coming to pass in our generation. Jerusalem should be the number one topic of any so called Christian nation. The Temple Mount should be our banner proclaiming the coming of our LORD.
Psalms 60:1-5
60:1 To the chief Musician upon Shu'-shan-e'-duth, Mich'-tam of David, to teach; when he strove with A'-ram-na-ha-ra'-im and with A'-ram-zo'-bah, when Jo'-ab returned, and smote of E'-dom in the valley of salt twelve thousand.
O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
3 Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5 That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
KJVGod is angry with this generation of Jews as He was with those of David's generation. The liberal secular government has been cast off because it is in the process of giving away not only most of Jerusalem, but Jewish sovereignty over the Temple Mount itself. A sin as unconscionable in the Old Testament as it is in the New Testament for Evangelical Christianity. The Temple Mount is the place the Bible says where will fly the banner of the Jewish Messiah as well as that of the soon coming
LORD of hosts. A banner upon the high mountain. The battle over Mount Zion will bring to the earth that dreaded day of the LORD. God says He will destroy the whole land. He says that destruction will come from the Almighty! Great fear is predicted in the Bible for all the evil and wicked men who have stood in their pride and arrogance against the Almighty.
Friend, in Christ there is no fear. He came to give good tidings of great joy. The Saviour has come! He has come to save you dear friend, but you must first come to Him. He forces His salvation on no one. It is our responsibility to come to Him. Won't you come with all your heart, all your soul, and all your might pleading that He apply His sin cleansing blood to your heart? The good tidings are that He has never refused to save even the worst of sinners who come pleading to be changed. He promises us a new heart, and He has never failed to keep His word. Friend, this is Christ the Lord of the Bible. Won't you come to Him right now?
Luke 2:10-11
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not : for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
KJV
Isaiah 13:1-11
13:1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.
2 Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
3 I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

Top Disengagement Strategist:
Convergence Won´t Bring Stability
13:46 Jun 04, '06 / 8
Sivan 5766
by Hillel Fendel
The outgoing head of the National Security Council, Gen. Giora Eiland, officially parted from the Cabinet today, leaving sharp criticism of PM Olmert's withdrawal plan in his wake.
Speaking with journalist Ari Shavit of Haaretz this weekend, Eiland - responsible for drawing up the logistical plans for Ariel Sharon's disengagement from Gaza - said Israel missed a "historic opportunity" to receive something in return for quitting Gaza. Neither does he think the latest plan, to withdraw unilaterally from most of Judea and Samaria, will succeed.
Eiland is of the opinion that a future unilateral withdrawal from Yesha (Judea and Samaria) would lead to a situation he rejects: the traditional two-state solution.
Eiland told Shavit that Israel could have demanded a totally new type of solution, but did not take advantage of the situation, and instead, the Disengagement "contributed nothing to the solution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."
"The move along a unilateral path," Eiland said, "leads us to the classic solution of two states for two peoples, and I think this is an impossible solution [because it makes] two assumptions: that it is possible to solve the conflict in the area between the Mediterranean and the Jordan River, and that the reference for a border between the two states is the 1967 lines with minor changes. I reject these two assumptions. I think that between the sea and the river there is not enough area to contain two states, and I think that in order to maintain a defensible border, Israel needs at least 12 percent of the West Bank... [In addition], even a Palestinian state with 100 percent of the Gaza Strip and 97 percent of the West Bank is not viable. Such a country will be poor, radical, restive, where the demographic pressures will be unbearable. In 2020 there will be 2.5 million people in the Gaza Strip, in area of 365 square kilometers. This will inevitably lead to pressure against the fences."
Asked for his alternative proposal, Eiland showed great imagination, partially adopting MK Benny Elon's 'Jordan is Palestine' plan. His idea involves annexing 600 square kilometers of Judea and Samaria to Israel, taking parts of the Sinai (600 square kilometers, about 1%) and Jordan (100 square kilometers) for the benefit of a future Palestinian state, and giving Egypt 150 square kilometers of the southern Negev.
Eiland's position against the classic two-state solution is not new. Already in February of this year, speaking at the Herzliya Conference, he said, "It is not certain that 'two states for two nations' is a stable solution for this dispute."
A year ago, veteran journalists Raviv Drucker and Ofer Shelach published a book in which they showed that the Disengagement Plan was hatched up simply to avoid Ariel Sharon's indictment in the Greek Island scandal. They wrote that top Sharon-aide Dov Weisglass led the way in preparing the plan, and that those in the army and government who could have helped improve the plan for Israel were left out of the decision-making loop. Drucker and Shelach explained that Eiland "was in the midst of preparing a plan as to how Israel could get some benefit from its withdrawal, when suddenly he was presented with this new [unilateral] plan - and even now he objects to the plan [as it now stands]."
Eiland confirmed this in his talk with Shavit: "When I took office, on January 18, 2004, there was only an amorphous term 'disengagement' from a speech in Herzliya. I asked Sharon how much time I had to formulate a plan and he told me, four months. But very quickly it became clear to me that Dov Weissglas had already met with the Americans and committed us to a major unilateral step both in Gaza and the West Bank. Immediately afterwards, Sharon committed himself to the evacuation of 18 settlements in the Gaza Strip in an interview to Yoel Marcus, and at that point the game was up. The planning process I had begun blew up."
Olmert's convergence plan will "not bring stability," Eiland says, and "will not solve the conflict. But it will encourage Hamas to keep the calm... There will be a situation of two states without an agreement. The Palestinian state will be a radical Hamas state, not satisfied and not viable. There will be continuous instability."
Eiland headed the National Security Council for 2.5 years; the average term in this position has been about a year. He will be succeeded in several weeks by former Mossad Deputy Head Ilan Mizrachi, who left the Mossad for the private business sector in 2003 when Ariel Sharon did not choose him to head the organization. Mizrachi is considered to be an expert in Islamic and Arab affairs.
It is good to know that at least there is talk of a plan other then the Road Map. At this point any plan other then the Road Map would be a good thing, but the only plan that can ever count is the Biblical plan built around dispensational change that will come with the Kingdom Age. I'm convinced we must
endure all these failed human efforts at peace in the Holy Land. We must all learn that peace will never come to the Holy Land through human effort. It is beyond the ability of fallen men to ever produce real peace. What we must do is what faithful men have been doing for the last 2000 years, and that is to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. This task can only be accomplished by God, and it is to Him we plead the peace of Jerusalem. This task can only be accomplished through the LORD Jesus Chrit! He came the first time as the suffering Savior, but He is coming again as the LORD of hosts. He is coming as the King of the Jews. The mighty undefeatable God of the universe. When He establishes His Kingdom none shall be able to stand in His way!
Psalms 24:8-10
8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
KJV
Every peace plan that does not take into consideration what the Bible says about Jerusalem is doomed to fail. Every peace plan that does not allow the Jews to build the next Holy Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount is doomed to fail. Surprisingly, the Bible indicates that the fist person who comes up with a peace plan that gives the Jews full unrestricted sovereignty over both Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount will be the antichrist!
Daniel 9:27
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
KJV
The antichrist comes on the Biblical scene when Daniel's 70th week of prophecy begins. I can only conclude the covenant he makes with the Jews allows them to build their Temple. The gentile nations here agree that the Jews have full rights to Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount. That Temple is obviously in operation three and one half years later when the antichrist breaks the covenant with them by desecrating, and prohibiting any more proper and acceptable Jewish Temple worship. I'm convinced Ezekiel 39, the end of Islam, is the event that produces this peace treaty with the gentile nations. The power of God on behalf of the Jews is enough to even get the antichrist who hates the Jews to back away if only for 3-1/2 years. Another event the Bible tells us about the midst of Daniel's 70th week is the death of the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11. The Temple is the subject of introduction to Revelation 11, and my assumption is that the Two Witnesses are central to it's construction. What is even more important is that they would be the ones to establish proper acceptable Temple worship that has not been practiced for almost 2000 years. I doubt the pompous religious Jews of today could ever in their pride do anything pleasing to God. Acceptable Temple Worship can only be established by humbled men who are directly communing with God, and we know this is the case with the Two Witnesses. They are humbly dressed in sackcloth, yet manifest great power from God which they clearly do not use to enhance their own comforts. I'm convinced the testimony they finish in 3-1/2 years just before their death is the completion of Ezekiel's Temple (Ezek 40 - 48). What act in Revelation 11 could possibly torment the people of earth who hate God and His Bible more then
the building of the prophesied Jewish Temple? It seems to me that a remnant of 144,000 Jews protected for 3-1/2 years by these Two Witnesses could build Ezekiel's Temple at a time when the secular Jews, and the whole world opposes them doing what they have every right to do.
Friend, this remnant of Jews including the Two Witnesses who build Ezekiel's Temple will be the foundation for the Kingdom Age. It will be because they are all going to be "born again" according to the Bible. These are the Jews with circumcised hearts. Their testimony through building the Temple will be that the LORD Jesus Christ is coming again. That His Kingdom is at hand! Friend, have you come to this Christ of the Bible? Have you asked Him to save you? Judgment is coming with Him when He comes again. Will you be able to stand? He loves you dear friend. He shed His blood at Calvary so your sins can be washed away. Won't you come?
Revelation 20:4-5
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus , and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
KJV
Revelation 11:1-14
11:1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.

Tuesday Deadline Looms for PA
‘Reconciliation Plan’
22:45 Jun 04,
'06 / 8 Sivan 5766
by Hana Levi Julian
Time is running out for Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh to approve the“Prisoners’ Plan” and accept a PA state within the 1967 borders and other points. So far, he has refused.
PA President Mahmoud Abbas announced a little over a week ago that he would give Haniyeh ten days to approve the plan authored by Fatah and Hamas prisoners in Israel led by convicted Fatah terrorist Marwan Barghouti.
The “Prisoners’ Plan” calls for the PA to accept the creation of a state within the 1967 borders as well as the 2002 Beirut Declaration, which calls for formal recognition of Israel upon withdrawal from territories won in the 1967 war.
The plan also calls for the “right of return” for millions of Arabs into Israel, continued Arab “struggle” --- a euphemism for terrorism – against Israel and the release of thousands of terrorist prisoners from Israeli jails, including the authors.
If Haniyeh does not approve the plan by Tuesday, Abbas will send it to a general referendum. Haniyeh has continued to reject the plan and the referendum. He also continues to reject the international Quartet demands that Hamas officially recognize Israel, disarm, renounce terrorism and uphold agreements signed by the previous PA administration. The “Prisoners’ Plan” would address those issues, were Israel to agree to the terms.
After a week of avoiding the issue, Haniyeh said that Abbas’ plans to hold a national referendum were illegal but that he would discuss the matter. “The local law does not permit holding referenda on the Palestinian law,” said Haniyeh on Sunday, in what appeared to be a continuation of the ongoing power struggle between the two PA leaders.
The sad part of this Prisoners Plan is that it will become the only ultimate end to the Road Map that will be acceptable by the Arab Palestinians. The implanting of millions of barbarians now corralled by the neighboring Islamic countries is terrible enough, but this plan will spell out the final disposition of
the Temple Mount for which all of Islam is bound to make a life or death issue. The fanaticism of the Mohamed cartoons is nothing compared to what Islam will do contemplating any future thought of a Jewish Temple on the Mount. The liberal secular government of Israel cares nothing about the Temple Mount. The Bible is just another book of myths to them which is not relevant in our modern generation. Secular Jews like these have always been around. When the Jewish Nation split after the death of King Solomon the Northern part went totally secular. The Southern part had a mixture of secular and spiritual mostly dominated by the secular, but there were numerous revivals in Judah where the spiritual elements gained favor and control. Today, there are no spiritual Jews acceptable to Israelis! There are religious Jews who have rejected the Jewish Messiah that God sent them, but there are no Christian Jews acceptable to the religious Jews of Israel. The door was opened to the gentiles with Jewish national rejection of Christ at His first coming, and the present Christian Church is the result. That door is about to close with the coming of dispensational change. Salvation will be limited again to only Israel. The gentiles will be required to submit to the coming again Christ when He is presented to the world as the King of the Jews. His future throne will be located in Ezekiel's Temple (Ezek 40 -48). The Jews and gentiles will be required to come to Him.
Ezekiel 43:7
7 And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my throne , and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcases of their kings in their high places.
KJV
The Temple will be the only place on the planet where faithful servants of this Jewish King will be able to worship Him. They will be required to offer Old Testament blood sacrifices daily throughout the 1000 year reign of the soon coming LORD Jesus Christ. The Jewish book of Leviticus will be followed in Ezekiel's Temple. The blood will all look back to Calvary as all previous sacrifices looked forward to His coming to Calvary.
Ezekiel 43:18
18 And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
KJV
Ezekiel 43:20
20 And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the border round about: thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it.
KJV
Ezekiel 45:19
19 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court.
KJV
Friend, it is the blood that provides salvation of both gentile and Jew. It is not any old blood shed at any old place. The sacrificial animals are required to be perfect! They must be without spot or blemish otherwise they are not acceptable to be a reminder of the power saving blood of Christ that was shed
at Calvary. The altar where the blood is to be poured can only be put in front of the Temple door. This is the only acceptable place. One Temple, one altar, and one Savior King in the next dispensation. The only way to come into His presents will be with blood! I don't think Christ ever leaves His Temple, or throne for His entire reign during the millennial Kingdom. All men must come to Him in the next dispensation similarly as we must come to Him today. We must come pleading His blood that was shed so our sins can be washed away. All other ways, all other religions, and all other assurances given by men are false and worthless. It is only the blood of Christ that can make us acceptable to a perfectly Holy God. The only way to be washed in the blood of Christ is to come into His presence, and plead for forgiveness on the basis of Calvary. He did it all, but we must come to Him for salvation. Won't you come? Right now you can pray to Him. He never rejects a broken heart seeking the purity that He offers. Won't you come into the presents of Christ to be saved?
Romans 3:19-29
19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood , to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:

Al Qaeda Takes Root in PA as
Arabs Smuggle in 11 Tons of TNT
21:09 Jun 06, '06 / 10
Sivan 5766
by Scott Shiloh
Security chief Yuval Diskin told a Knesset committee that “World Jihad” was taking root in the PA. Smuggling has placed another 11 tons of TNT and 10,000 rifles at its disposal for attacking Israel.
Yuval Diskin, head of Israel’s domestic intelligence agency, Shin Bet, presented a sobering appraisal of Israel’s security situation since the disengagement last August to the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.
According to Diskin, weapons smuggling into Gaza has reached unprecedented proportions. Since the Israeli pullout which left the Egyptian-Gazan border in the hands of Egypt and the Palestinian Authority, Arab terrorists have succeeded in smuggling 11 tons of TNT into Gaza.
Aside from TNT, which vastly improves terrorists’ ability to manufacture more deadly Kassam rockets and explosive vests for suicide bombers, terrorists have smuggled massive quantities of other weapons across the Egypt-Gaza border.
Among the new weapons at the terrorists’ disposal were 10,000 rifles, 1600 pistols, RPG’s, Katyushas, and shoulder fired Strella missiles. The latter are capable of downing civilian aircraft. Some of the new weaponry entered Gaza via the Rafiah crossing with Egypt.
Prior to the disengagement, that crossing was manned by Israeli security personnel. Under a last-minute agreement brokered by the Americans, the Israeli presence at the crossing is limited to a closed-circuit video camera that sends a broadcast of persons entering the terminal to an IDF base at Nitzanim.
Diskin said the Egyptians were trying unsuccessfully to thwart the smuggling. On the other hand, he noted that Israel had been successful in preventing the terrorists from exporting experts and technical information from Gaza to Judea and Samaria.
As new weapons and other armaments flow into the PA, Diskin said groups such as Al Qaeda, which promote World Jihad, have been taking route in PA strongholds in Gaza and Judea and Samaria.
In fact, Diskin told the committee, elements of the World Jihad in Sinai were responsible for intensifying the extent of weapons smuggling into Gaza. Egypt, he explained, was likewise ineffective in its efforts to curtail Al Qaeda which has opened up a number of cells in the Sinai Peninsula. Overall, Diskin said, the Egyptians had a poor record in fighting terrorism.
Jordan, he said, has been more effective in countering Al Qaeda. Although the World Jihad has already set up an infrastructure in Jordan, Jordanian forces are active in combating it.
The Road Map peace plan is not off to a very good start. The Gaza retreat was the first step, and the Arab Palestinians have used it to turn the Gaza into a haven for terrorists. These barbarians kill each other with the same ease that they kill Jews. It is the price the Arabs pay for nurturing a generation on hate. The Islamic gains in the Holy Land through terrorism has inspired them to look toward even
greater conquests. They now boldly view the whole world as a target for their barbarianism. The great concern of Al Qaeda on 9/11 was Saudi Arabia, but they have now moved their focus to the Holy Land. They know the Islamic world sees the Holy Land as the center of their struggle to rule the world. It is the Holy Land of the Christians and Jews where Islam intends to fight to the death. It is the Holy Land where Islam wants to discredit the Bible, and make the Koran dominate. Their vigor has exposed a dreadful truth about both Christianity and Judaism. Apathy has so inundated both religions that the loss of most of the Holy Land has become non-consequential. Included in the give away of the Gaza was the city of Jericho. The first step of the give away Road Map plan was to give Islam the first city that fell to Joshua when he crossed the Jordan. What a reversal this Third miraculous Exodus has taken compared to the First Exodus! The Jews are going backwards. This is the most classic example of the Biblical meaning of backsliding.
Isaiah 1:4
4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward .
KJV
I do not see a pleasant future for all the apathy, and the backsliding going on in both Christianity and Judaism. The Christian Church faces the rapture where all the spiritual born again Christians are removed supernaturally by God leaving only an Apostate Christian Church behind. An instrument fit for the antichrist to use as fodder in his climb to world domination. The same will be true for Judaism, but with the Jews God will add a spiritual remnant. A yet to be revealed remnant of 144,000 spiritual Jews will join the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11 in building Ezekiel's Temple. Many other Jews will convert to the Old Testament Judaism that they will represent. The Old Testament type of Judaism God always intended the Jews to follow, but the Jews always backslid before reaching His Godly ideals. A sacrificial system will be introduced in Ezekiel's Temple which will look back to Calvary like God always intended the Jews of old to look forward to this same one time sacrifice to which all other sacrifices were meant to exemplify. Perfect Judaism will be re-introduced once again, but this time we know the Messiah's name. Perfect Judaism will be centered around the soon coming LORD Jesus Christ King of the Jews. It will be for Him that Ezekiel's Temple will be built. It will be to His perfect blood that all future sacrifices will be directed.
Friend, you can only be saved by coming through the blood. There is no other salvation that is acceptable to the Holy God of the Bible. You must be perfect to come into His presents. God is eternal, and His future can only be perfection. The standard the LORD Jesus Christ represented at His first coming was this perfection, and He was rejected by a world that wanted to sin. The same is true today. The perfect Kingdom without spot or blemish ruling the world with perfect law is too puritanical for most. When the ruler forces men to live without spot or blemish they balk. Friend, it is only through the blood that we can be changed. The promise is that Christ has the power to perfect us so that we will fit into His planed sinlessly perfect eternal heaven. It is only through His blood which is without spot or blemish that this miracle can be accomplished. Friend, you must come to Him, and Him alone. There is no other. You can pray right now, and by the word of God you can be saved through the blood.
Romans 5:8-9
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood , we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Ezekiel 43:22-25
22 And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.
23 When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without blemish , and a ram out of the flock without blemish .
24 And thou shalt offer them before the LORD, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering unto the LORD.

18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

Chief Al-Qaeda Terrorist in
Iraq Killed in Targeted Air Strike
16:54 Jun 08, '06 / 12
Sivan 5766
by Hillel Fendel
The leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, has been killed in a U.S. air strike in Iraq. No lull in terrorism in Iraq - or the Palestinian Authority - is expected, however.
The United States had been pursuing Zarqawi for several years, saying he was known to be responsible for the deaths of thousands of Iraqis.
Zarqawi and one of his key lieutenants, Sheikh Abdel Rahman, were killed late Wednesday afternoon in an air strike "against an identified, isolated safe house," said George W. Casey, the top U.S. military officer in Iraq . "Tips and intelligence from Iraqi senior leaders from his network led forces to al-Zarqawi and some of his associates who were conducting a meeting" in the area.
He said that though the killing was a significant blow to Al-Qaeda, it was unlikely to stem violence in Iraq. U.S. President George W. Bush echoed this prediction.
Reports of Al-Qaeda terrorist cells in Judea, Samaria, Gaza and the Sinai are becoming increasingly prevalent. Just this week, Israel's General Security Service chief Yuval Diskin told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee that Al Qaeda has been taking root in PA strongholds in these areas, and were heavily involved in intensifying weapons smuggling into Gaza.
"Zarqawi and Al-Qaeda in Iraq have conducted terrorist activities against the Iraqi people for years," Casey said, "in attempts to undermine the Iraqi national government and coalition efforts to rebuild and stabilize Iraq."
Zarqawi was notorious for his massive car bomb attacks. In February 2005, for instance, no fewer than 125 people were killed when a car bomb he organized blew up in the midst of a large group of policemen in southern Iraq. In September 2004, 35 children and 7 adults were killed in a series of attacks he organized in Baghdad. Another 47 were killed around the same time in a car bomb attack outside the city. In December of that year, two simultaneous car bombs killed 60 people.
Zarqawi was also responsible for the attacks in three luxury hotels in Amman, Jordan last year, and he is considered to be responsible for the murderous attacks in the Sinai Desert as well.
The Bible is clear that this unrepentant mass murderer is now in hell! He is in the same place where the rich man went after he died. The same flames are licking around his body of which the rich man described as tormenting! There is no devil with a pitch fork running around. There is only the rich man in torment looking beyond a fixed great gulf to Abraham's bosom observing the blessed rest which could have been his if he had humbled himself before God, and trusted in God's promise of a coming Messiah who would have the power of redemption.
Psalms 130:6-8
6 My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
7 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption .
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
KJV
Isaiah 44:6
6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
KJVWithout having ever sought redemption during life the rich man now faces an eternal future of never ending torment. Added to this torment is the length of the sentence. It is forever!
Mark 9:44
44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
KJV
Isaiah 66:23-24
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
KJVThe Koran tells the faithful this mass murderer is now in a sexually perverted paradise. His conscienceless barbarianism has gained him Islamic bliss. You can decide which book tells the truth? The Bible does talk about heaven for those who do not deserve it, but it includes all men as being undeserving. The Bible says we all come short of the glory of God. There is none, no not one, who can meet the Holy Standard of the God of the Bible. His holiness demands perfection! With the sole exception of the LORD Jesus Christ there are no perfect men. His law as written in the Bible is absolutely perfect, and allows for no exceptions. Even our thoughts are measured, and found wanting. However, the God of the Bible said He would provide a redeemer! One who had the power to save
those who can't save themselves. Friend, have you found the LORD Jesus Christ as your Savior? Have you been washed in His sin cleansing blood? Only He is the Redeemer of men, but we must come to Him pleading our case as a lost sinner. He says in the Bible that He loves you, and wants you saved. But, dear friend you must humble yourself, and come to Him. Won't you come? Salvation is not for the proud who think in their own eyes they can earn merit with God. Salvation is for the humble who recognize they need a redeemer.
Matthew 9:11-13
11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?
12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous , but sinners to repentance.
KJVJesus Christ is coming again as the King of the Jews. He is coming this time in great power. He will not be resisted. He will manifest the part of His character that is the LORD of hosts. He will demand submission to His perfect standards. Only the redeemed will be able to stand! Only He is the redeemer of Israel. Friend, I ask again is He your redeemer?
Isaiah 47:4
4 As for our redeemer , the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
KJV
Isaiah 54:5
5 For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

Psalms 24
The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.

When Arabs kill Arabs, when Arabs divide the land
... -- On Thursday, no fewer than 10,000 Palestinian security members, loyal to Fatah, staged a mass demonstration in Gaza against the Hamas government, firing into the air, trying to break into the Palestinian parliament building, and hurling rocks and other objects at its windows.
-- On Friday, Palestinian gunmen, apparently from Hamas, shot to death a senior officer in the Preventative Security Service, a Palestinian Authority agency closely linked to PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and his Fatah.
To the south in Khan Yunis, a gun battle between Hamas men and Preventative Security officers left three PSS members wounded.
-- On Saturday, a force of some 2,500 Fatah militants deployed in Jenin as a new security arm, further escalating tensions with Hamas.
Later, in an apparent Fatah assassination operation, gunmen seriously wounded a junior commander in the Hamas military wing.
-- On Monday, two more apparent Fatah assassination operations were carried out in the Strip. In Jabalya, a large explosion ripped through a house, killing Hamas member Ahmed Sari and wounding his son, 8.
Earlier in the day, masked gunmen fired on a car carrying a Hamas gunman and his wife, 20, who was eight months pregnant. Both were killed in the hail of fire.
Through it all, Abbas has been pushing the Prisoners' Document, authored in part by Fatah leader-turned-lifer Marwan Barghouti and jailed representatives of Hamas and three other Palestinian factions.
In a rare case of Hamas misreading Palestinian public opinion - perhaps the surest sign of the transition into government - the fundamentalist movement was quick to oppose the Document.
A poll released Tuesday by a respected Palestinian opinion research team showed that on the critical plank of the Document, fully 83 percent of Palestinian respondents said the supported the creation of a Palestinian state within the pre-1967 war borders of the West Bank and Gaza.
The clause is widely seen as expressing implicit recognition of Israel, a step Hamas has sought desperately to sidestep. ...
What happens when one Islamist engaged in Holy Jihad kills another Islamist? Who is the good guy who goes to the Islamic sexually perverted paradise, and who is the bad guy that does not? My thoughts are whatever side ends up the winner goes to paradise? I don't think Allah sides, or helps losers? The Bible tells me there is no greater group of losers found in the annals of human history as the Jews! They are less then 1/10 of 1% of the world's population, and yet have been around as long as any peoples group on record. Their longevity should be reflected in world population statistics, but it is not. They have outlasted entire nations, and ethnic populations mightier then they. They have outlasted their conquerors. They have been uprooted out of their homeland to be scattered among the nations not once, but twice! Yet, today they have returned for the second miraculous time still as Jewish as ever. This is the Third Exodus of Jews into the Holy Land, and it is as miraculous as any of the others. The God of the Bible seems more the God of losers then the big winner wheeler dealers that always rise to the top.
Matthew 5:3-12
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Allah may be the god of the Islamic masses, but the God of the Bible is only for the small remnant of every generation who humble themselves before Him. The Bible is not a text book to the masses about religion. It is a revelation from the creator God defining His perfect holiness, and the absolutely perfect standards that He represents. He gave His revelation to the Jews, and commended them to keep it without spot or blemish. The Word of God, and the Holy Land are tied together, and that is why this Third miraculous Exodus is so critical. God not only gave the Jews His sacred trust to preserve His revelation, but He also expected them to live by them.
Deuteronomy 6:1-7
6:1 Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:
2 That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.
3 Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
KJV
Friend, it was only a remnant of Jews who were saved at any one time in Old Testament times, and it is only a remnant of Christians who are saved in New Testament times as well. It is God who changes the heart of the remnant who seek Him with all their heart, soul, and might. They no longer live for themselves and this world, but in humble desire they live only for Him. They are rejected by this world of sin, but blessed by Him in the process. The Kingdom Age is almost here, and a remnant of Jews are about to experience the eternal change that has brought the hate of the world to all the remnants of the past. But, at the same time God looks at their eternal future, and calls them blessed. They will be the inheritors of His coming Kingdom. What about you? What is your future? Will you spend it with Christ the King of the Jews? You can if you receive Him as your Savior. All you need do is pray.
Ezekiel 11:17-21
17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence.
19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh :
20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
21 But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD.

Poll: 56% Israelis oppose Convergence
According to a recent Haaretz-Dialog poll, some 56 percent of Israelis oppose Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's 'convergence plan' to unilaterally redefine Israel's eastern border. The poll results were released as Olmert was meeting with King Abdullah II of Jordan, who also opposes the plan. The poll found that only 37 percent of Israelis support convergence, which calls for a massive unilateral withdrawal in the West Bank, while 7 percent are undecided. Unsurprisingly, most of the supporters were people who had voted for one of the two main coalition parties, Kadima and Labor. But a massive 83 percent of people who voted for Shas, the third-largest coalition party, said that they oppose the plan.
Abdullah: "No" Settlement at Jordan's expense
Olmert says no alternative to unilateral borders
During a Thursday meeting with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Jordan's King Abdullah II spoke out against Olmert's plan for a unilateral withdrawal from the West Bank. While Abdullah supports Israel and has condemned the Hamas-led government, he hopes to avoid a destabilizing flood of Palestinians onto Jordanian soil and favors bilateral talks."A unilateral step by Israel would raise question marks and a sense of insecurity not only among the Palestinians, but among all the partners of peace in the region," he said. "If anyone who believes that it is possible to settle the Palestinian issue at the expense of Jordan, he should know that Jordan will never be a substitute homeland for anybody."
Olmert, however, reiterated a statement he made during a press conference with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on Sunday, and reminded Abdullah of the Palestinian Hamas government's unwillingness to recognize Israel, renounce terror and accept previously made agreements between Israel and the PA, The Jerusalem Post reports.
"Should the Palestinians not meet their obligations, and should no political horizon be apparent, we will have no alternative but to look for other ways in order to move the situation in the Middle East forward," he said.
In the past, Jordan has been a refuge for Palestinians eager to escape the brewing civil war in the territories.
Finally there is the recognition that this Road Map can only be a route to hell. It is the liberal secular majority that are finally facing reality. The Olmert government is in trouble. I don't think he is the man
that Sharon was who just bulled his way ahead without any heed to what the consequences might be. I would hope Olmert is already considering alternative plans to the blasphemous Road Map. The great danger of the Road Map is the Two State solution! The Biblical purpose of this third miraculous Exodus is for the Jews to posses the Holy Land not share it with the barbarians.
I would hope the Jews of Israel are coming to their senses. Even Jordan can see the foolishness of the old Road Map. I know the Bible teaches there will be a false peace before God ends all Islamic influence over the Holy Land so the last Jewish Temple can be built. How this is all going to happen only time will tell. The potential for the phony peace of which Ezekiel speaks is very real. The Jews are desperate, and subject to grasping at any peace plan no matter how foolish. The barbarian hate for the Jews is forever fixed! They make any peace plan no matter how compromised as impossible. Only the extermination of all the Jews from the Holy Land will suffice for the barbarians. A promised Jewish Kingdom will always be out of the question as long as Islam has a presents in the Holy Land. Ezekiel 39 is God's answer to this dilemma.
Friend, we are approaching the end of one era, and the beginning of another. The Bible says God is going to establish the promised Kingdom of Heaven very soon in the Holy Land. Are you ready? Have you come to the LORD Jesus Christ for salvation? You can pray to Him right now. He wants you saved, but you must come to Him. The decision is yours!
Isaiah 55:1-3
55:1 Ho , every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

How the PA Blamed Israel for
the Deaths on the Beach
13:10 Jun 12, '06 / 16
Sivan 5766
by Hillel Fendel
The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) released a report on Saturday full of inaccuracies about the incident - and has not yet released a correction or apology.
The organization, whose reports are widely relied upon by the United Nations and other organizations, announced the following:
"PCHR’s preliminary investigation indicates that the attack which killed seven members of the same family took place at approximately 16:40 on Friday, 9 June 2006. An Israeli naval boat stationed off the coast of Beit Lahya fired seven successive artillery shells at civilians on the beach in the Waha area, north of Beit Lahya. The shells landed on the beach, which had been crowded with civilian men, women and children at the time. Seven civilians from the same family (father, mother and five children) were killed. A sixth child from the same family escaped death but was seen on television crying hysterically beside her father’s body. A further 32 civilians, including 13 children, were injured... Israeli television Channel 2 broadcast footage of the Israeli boat firing the shells at the beach, with one of the navy soldiers scanning the beach with binoculars; thus indicating that the crime had been perpetrated with a premeditated intent to kill."
An indication of PCHR's bias is the fact that it consistently refers to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) as the IOF - the Israeli Occupation Forces. The organization gathered data that led to the issuing of an arrest warrant in Great Britain against Gen. (ret.) Doron Almog in 2005 for "war crimes." He was to be charged with overseeing the dr
