Al-Hayat: Olmert and Abbas Holding Final-Status Talks

(IsraelNN.com) According to the London-based Al-Hayat newspaper, Fatah chief Mahmoud Abbas, who also serves as Chairman of the Palestinian Authority, together with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, have been holding secret final status negotiations.

The paper claimed that a “secret channel” was set up by the two men to resolve the issues defined as final status issues by the Oslo Accords.

Those issues include, Jerusalem, the “right of return” for Arabs who fled in 1948 and the destruction of Jewish towns in Judea and Samaria.

It is only rumor right now, but final status talks are certain to take place. Jerusalem will be the major topic. How much of Jerusalem will be turned over to the Islamic King of Judah is what must be decided for the Road Map to go forward. Abbas can be expected to walk away with 3/4 of the old city of Jerusalem, and much more importantly full sovereignty over the Temple Mount. I suspect he will drop his demands of the so called right to return of the now bloated figure of millions of Arabs who fled the Holy Land in 1948. He knows the most violent of the Islamic barbarians will have no trouble entering his Kingdom of Judah and Samaria once the Jews have been evicted.

I have no doubt the final status of the Temple Mount will spell the final nail in the coffin of today's apathetic Jews now living in the Holy Land. Their apathy toward God will be noted. Their choice of secularism over the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob established in fact. This terrible apathy is going to change. It will take 7 years of Great Tribulation as the Jewish heart is slowly turned back to God. A few will be redeemed at the beginning, but the numbers will increase over the years. One of two things always happen when the God of the Bible starts forcing His righteousness on men. Either the heart hardens, or it breaks. The Islamic heart is predicted to harden. The Jewish heart is predicted to break.

Exodus 7:13-14

13 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had said.

14 And the Lord said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuseth to let the people go.

KJV

The issue has not changed for the heathen of any generation, but the Islamic heathen of this generation have earned special highlighting in the Bible. Their Koranic demands for the Biblical city of Jerusalem is the hardening agent, and is leading to Ezekiel 39 which will forever end Islamic influence over the Holy Land. The violence of Ezekiel 39 matches the viciousness of today's Islamic barbarians. The beasts of the field will sup on the beasts of this animalistic Islamic culture.

Folks the world is about to come face to face with the God of the Bible! The time has come for His only begotten Son to return! Holy righteousness is about to be forced on this world of sin. That foul fiend Satan is about to be bound for 1000 years. The Church Age is ending, and the Jewish Kingdom of Heaven Age is about to be realized at the translation of the saints called the rapture. The times of the gentiles will end with Armageddon at the end of the 7 year tribulation, and the Jewish King of Glory will sit on His throne on Mount Zion. Ezekiel 38 & 39 is critical as a latter days prophecy of how this is all going to come to pass. I would encourage you to read once again the end of Islam in Ezekiel 39.

To any unsaved readers: Are you ready for what the God of the Bible is doing in the Holy Land this very day? The secular Jewish government is not going to give away the Temple Mount for an empty pot of pottage. It is not theirs to give away! It belongs to the God of the Bible, and He is calling in His possession in our generation. His Son is about to return to planet earth. He is not coming to die on the cross once again as the suffering servant. This time He is coming in all His glory! You are about to face the wrath of the Lamb in your unsaved condition. Friend, come to Christ while you can, and live!

Matthew 5:10-12

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.

Soldiers Banish Missionaries From Army Base

by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) The soldiers of the dusty Nachal Oz army base in southern Israel were happy to see a group of orange-clad Israeli-flag-waving youths with musical instruments appear at their gates one day last month.  Religious and not religious soldiers gathered around them, singing and dancing - and only when the music quieted down did the visitors begin to spread their real message.

"We believe in him, we call him Jesus," they said.  "He was Jewish, not Christian.  We are here to say thank you and we are sorry, and may the Lord protect you."

At that point, the soldiers realized they had been tricked.  One of them contacted the rabbi of the base, who apparently was not there at the time, and banished the unwelcome visitors.  "The missionaries then looked for other prey in the base," the soldier told Nitzan Keidar of HaTzofeh, "but I followed them and made sure they left the base altogether."

The soldiers also contacted the Yad L'Achim [Hand to Brothers] anti-missionary organization about the event.  Yad L'Achim says that missionaries have long targeted the army, and have even published a page of instructions headlined with the Hebrew acronym for the IDF - Tz.H.L. - but standing for something else: "Listen Today to the Lord" (Tzaytu hayom la'adon). The rest of the sheet contains the following tips to missionary soldiers: "The army is one of the best places to spread the message. When you're stuck for ten hours in a jeep in the streets of Ramallah, conversations about G-d, death and other spiritual matters have to come up.  I want to encourage you: Use these opportunities that the army gives you, on guard duty, long trips, and the like."

Missionaries Attack in Netanya
Both missionary and anti-missionary work continue apace throughout Israel, and two incidents of missionaries attacking anti-missionaries in Netanya were recently reported.  Two female Yad L'Achim volunteers were attacked by missionaries as they were distributing anti-missionary literature from door-to-door, and a male was attacked under similar circumstances the next day.  The incidents occurred at 5 Dr. Skop St. and 9 Motzkin St.  In both cases, the police were called and arrested or detained the attackers.

Rabbi Shalom Dov Lifshitz, the Chairman of Yad L'Achim, said afterwards, "Our success in using their own method of house-to-house visits stops their activities time after time - and has apparently also revealed their true face as being violent and totally unrestrained... In many places, our volunteers have argued with the missionaries and caused them to leave in disgrace.  Our response to these two incidents is to increase our house visits to fight the missionaries."
 

 

 

Can you believe everything you read in the liberal oriented Israeli press? What about this Jewish conservative account of missionary activity taking place in Israel? Folks, you need to know that though the conservative Jews of Israel talk more about believing in God, they are still very far from Him, and even farther from His only begotten Son. Jewish pride causes such bias attitudes toward Messianic Jewish missionaries. This youthful outburst of evangelistic enthusiasm will probably cost these young people an extended stay in jail. This is Israeli democracy in action! It could even lead to their expulsion from Israel altogether. The only other youth treated with this same kind of bias both in the media, and the courts are the actively protesting Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlers when they demonstrate against their own expulsion from the Gaza, Judah, and Samaria. Oh how the Jewish heart needs to be changed.

The Book of Revelation tells us God is going to raise up two witnesses for Christ who will minister from Jerusalem for the first half of the Great Tribulation. They will be assisted by 144,000 other Messianic Jews. I'm convinced these will be the Jews who will build the Last Holy Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount. No power on earth will be allowed to stop them from their testimony to Christ by building His Temple as described in Ezekiel 40 -48. A Temple with a throne!

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

Yes dear friend, the LORD Jesus Christ is coming again to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount. He is coming as the Jewish King of Glory! Every knee shall bend to His overwhelming power. Puritanical righteousness will be His mandate to this world of sin as He rules with a rod of iron. Friend, what is your attitude to such a Holy God who will force His holiness on you? Satan is going to be bound for 1000 years. All the statutes and ordinances of the Bible will be enforced to the letter under the rule of the LORD Jesus Christ. The Kingdom of Heaven will be very different from the world of today. Proclaiming Christ as King will not be optional, but mandatory! It will be those who try to stifle such enthusiasm who will find themselves on the wrong side of the law. Do you need a heart change? You must come to Christ with all your heart, soul, and might for such a miracle to take place. Friend, won't you come to this Christ of the Bible, and live!

 

Luke 19:35-42

35 And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.

36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.

37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;

38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

PA Sources: Terrorists Liable to Lose Amnesty

by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) The 178 wanted terrorists Israel has stopped pursing are again threatening to murder Jews - all because Israel refuses to stop pursuing another 206.

A "senior Palestinian Authority military source" has said that the recent agreement regarding wanted Fatah terrorists between the PA and Israel is "in danger."  This, because Israel refuses to consider expanding the deal before the existing aspects take full effect.

The agreement in question was finalized less than three weeks ago, when Prime Minister Ehud Olmert agreed to grant conditional amnesty to 178 wanted Fatah terrorists in exchange for their promise to stop terrorism.  If, after their promise, they in fact refrain from terrorism for three months, their names are to be taken permanently off the "wanted" list.  Among the terrorists entitled to make this deal are Zekarya Zubeidi, long wanted for his terrorist activity against Israel, as well as almost the entire senior leadership of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terror group - the organization that has claimed responsibility for every suicide bombing in Israel over the past three years.

Now, however, after Israel has rejected a PA request to add another 206 wanted terrorists' names to the list, the terrorists threaten to cancel the entire deal.  So reports a high-placed PA military figure to Ynet.

Israel explained that it cannot consider expanding the agreement while about half of the terrorists originally offered amnesty have still not deigned to return their weapons, as demanded by the agreement. 

The PA source explained that the terrorists are concerned that giving up their guns might leave them defenseless against other Arabs they have attacked in the past.  In addition, they would like a full return on the money they paid for the weapons.  It was originally reported that the PA had earmarked tens of thousands of shekels for each gun returned, but apparently this is not sufficient.

"There is no doubt that the wanted-terrorists agreement is liable to collapse, and other security understandings with it," the source said.

The purpose of the agreement, from Prime Minister Olmert's standpoint, was to "strengthen" PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas in retaining popular support and in his struggle against Hamas.  Many Israelis do not accept this strategy, however.  Cabinet Minister Avigdor Lieberman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, for instance, said, "You can't strengthen someone who is a zero.  Abbas has done nothing to deserve these gestures. Has he arrested wanted terrorists, or collected weapons, or fought terrorism? A zero always remains a zero."
 

 

 

 

Zero is a true assessment of Abbas the newly self-appointed King of Judah and Samaria. What a shame that our own Evangelical White House is the power behind the throne! Abbas is carrying on the corruption where Arafat left off. The double dealing Arafat is the heritage Abbas has come to symbolize, and now thanks to the United States fixation with the Road Map we are placing him into the position of being the next King of Judah. The God of the Bible will not withhold His wrath for long. The integrity of the Bible is on the chopping block. God has promised that the LORD Jesus Christ would return to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Holy Jewish Temple. The Jews returned forming their own Nation in 1948 as the culmination of the miraculous Third Exodus. The 1967 Six Day War brought both Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount under Jewish sovereignty. 40 Years have passed, and now the secular liberal Olmert government is on record that they will give away the gains of the 1967 War to the worst culture our generation has allowed to raise it's ugly head. The Arab Islamic barbarians of Palestine under the Kingship of Abbas are about to be the recipients of both Judah and Samaria. With Judah will go the city of Jerusalem with the well publicized announcement that it will become the capital of this newly formed Islamic State planted right in the Holy Land. The Evangelical President George Bush, and his entire White House staff who brag of their daily Bible study practice must knows this. How great the wrath on such apathy.

I have heard the Democratic mantra of this election cycle saying there is no military solution to the Islamic barbarian challenge of our day. Folks, this is the biggest lie of all. It is the insertion of politics that prevents a military victory. Recognize the real force that is bringing down the wrath of God on this generation. It is the proud and haughty politicians of all persuasions. They are the ones leading the entire world to Armageddon, and the Road Map is the political instrument of choice. It is the approval of Abbas as the King of Judah that is most blasphemous to God. It is the call for Barabbas over Jesus that is stirring God into His already predicted wrath against this generation.

Isaiah 2:12

12 For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:

KJV

Friend, I pray you are ready for what the Bible has already predicted that is now take place. The Jews are back in the Holy Land, and the wrath of God is about to come down on this apathetic generation that is ignoring His warnings. The Bible has stood the test of time, and it is going to prove itself once more with this recent attack by the Islamic Koran. It is only those who have come to Christ for salvation who will find a refuge in the coming days of trouble. Friend, come to the Christ of the Bible, and live!

Palestinian officials say early elections unlikely

 

Occupied Jerusalem/Nablus:

 Senior Palestinian officials have made it clear to the United States and the European Union that new parliamentary and presidential elections are unlikely to be held near-term, Western officials said yesterday.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who leads the secular Fatah faction, has said he would soon issue decrees calling for early elections despite opposition from Hamas Islamists who seized control of the Gaza Strip in June.

Abbas has not said when those elections might be held. Hamas has said it would be unconstitutional for Abbas to call early elections. Abbas dismissed a Hamas-led government and appointed a Western-backed administration in the West Bank.

Dormant peace

Meanwhile, violence took place after US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice ended a visit to Israel and the Palestinian territories on Thursday aimed at reviving the dormant peace process between the two sides.

Israeli troops have shot dead a leader of the radical Islamic Jihad group in the West Bank and wounded three people during an incursion into the Gaza Strip, Palestinian security sources and witnesses said yesterday. In another incident, Palestinian militants fired three rockets from Gaza into southern Israel early yesterday, slightly wounding one person and causing minor damage, a military source said.

Gandhi would have headed for Gaza to free Palestinians had he been alive, says grandson

Israel News.Net
Saturday 4th August, 2007 (ANI)

London, Aug.4 : Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi alias Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Indian Nation, would have headed for the Gaza Strip and the West Bank to fight for the freedom of Palestinians had he been alive, says his 72-year-old grandson. ....
 

 

 

The masses of sinners who make up the majority mean nothing to the God of the b9ible. Is it not just lovely how the world of politics operates. The world of majority rules. The Islamic barbarians who send their suicide bombers and rockets targeting the Jewish civilian population are turned into the victims, and the real victims, the over 250,000 hard working Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlers living in Judah and Samaria who are about to be expelled from their homes and communities, are vilified because they are the thorn in the side to the Road Map. It is these Jewish residents of Judah and Samaria who will not bow to this self-proclaimed Islamic King, and so must be expelled by the secular liberal Olmert government. They have no vote at all in this entire matter! Their voice is stifled. Their rights nonexistent. It is Abbas, and his armed Islamic thugs whom the grandson of Gandhi says his famous grandfather would support. It is probably true! The Hindu Gandhi when given a choice between Abbas, and the LORD Jesus Christ, the coming again Jewish Messiah, can only be expected to choose Abbas as has his grandson. Gandhi rejected Christ during his lifetime, and there is no reason to expect that his hardened heart would change. Without the miracle of salvation no heart would chose Christ. That is how hardened the human heart is in this totally depraved generation.

It is the politics of this generation that has turned Judah into occupied territory. The refugee Abbas has been put into power with no elections. Democracy went right out the window for the expediency of the Road Map. The politicians all agree, and hang the people who might resist. It is Abbas, and not Christ! Folks, there is only one reason why Abbas will not hold elections, and that is because in a fair election he would lose! His thugs with their guns must be given time to intimidate the residence of Judah and Samaria, and even then I doubt he would take a chance. What happened in Gaza will not be forgotten. The animalistic Islamic Palestinian Arabs want the even more vicious, and hate filled Hamas over the corruption pedaling Abbas. What a choice our Evangelical White House has made for the next King of Judah.

Friend, it is not politics that will ever bring peace to the Holy Land. God knows this well. That is why the Bible has forever said it will take the Prince of Peace. Only a remnant understand this truth. Only a remnant are putting their faith and trust in the coming again LORD Jesus Christ. The Bible is clear that He will be coming as the Jewish King of Glory. The LORD of hosts in all His power to rule this planet with His righteous rod of Iron. The masses are predicted to resist His puritanical rule, and will perish as a result. The times of the gentiles is ending, and the times of the Jewish Kingdom of Heaven proclaimed by John the Baptist before this same Christ is about to begin. This miraculous Third Exodus of our generation is when it started. The world politicians are on record as doing everything they can to stop the Bible prophecy concerning the coming of Christ from taking place on their watch. The Road Map is the focus! Abbas is the choice! Friend, what about you. what is your choice for the next King of Judah? Will you choose Christ, and live? Become a part of the remnant who give their hearts to Christ! Let the miracle of salvation change you into a Biblical Christian.

 

Ezekiel 14:22-23

22 Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.

23 And they shall comfort you, when ye see their ways and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord God.
