Folks, I hope you know what is happening with this greatest crash ever of the United States economy. The politicians have been thrown into a rage of confusion. They are helpless to solve the problem. Both Republicans and Democrats can only point the finger at each other. They can't solve this massive financial crises. Even the huge bailout they want to pass into law will probably not be enough to stem the tide. It appears the whole world is going to be sucked into this crises. The financial wizards, and world politicians are all seeking a savior to fix what they have broken. Watch! The Bible is clear that before the LORD Jesus Christ returns to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount to culminate this miraculous Third Exodus of our generation an antichrist will rise. A financial wizard who will have worldly answers for the worldly problems we face this very day. The politicians, and financial wheeler dealers are ready today to sell their souls to this coming false savior when he makes his appearance. They will gladly turn over everything to him if he will only give them guidance. If he will only let them retain some of their power, and wealth they will give him their souls. They will give him your soul also if you let them.

Folks, understand this crisis has everything to do with the coming antichrist. It has everything to do with setting the scene that will reveal the true heart condition of the masses of this evil generation. They are going to chose the antichrist over the real Christ of the Bible. They will chose the all-mighty dollar over righteousness. The world, flesh, and the Devil is the choice this evil generation is prophesied to seek. Purity and holiness will be abandoned for the continuing lust of money, and all the worldly pleasures it can buy.

Matthew 6:24-26

24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

KJV

Revelation 13:16-18

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

KJV

 

We are quickly moving into the era when the antichrist will control the economy of the world. The rise of Babylon the Great is about to begin. A new center for the world banks to lavishly build their corporate headquarters. The entire economy of the world is going to shift into the Middle East. Babylon is going to be the Berlin of the antichrist. The old ways will be abandoned along with the old free market system. The antichrist can be expected to enslave the world through his financial wizardry. The antichrist is revealed in the Bible to be a back-stabber who only uses people then abandons them. He will use the nations. He will use the world politicians. He will use the religious leaders of every stripe, and then after he rapes them of all their wealth, influence, and power. He will then abandon them as just so much fodder.

Friend, to make friends with the antichrist is to make friends with a rattle-snake or scorpion. Friendship is not part of their nature. The world may think it a good thing to befriend this fiend, but it will only lead to death and destruction. The end of the antichrist, and the world system he establishes is clearly revealed in the Bible. The great financial center that is following on the heels of our present day financial collapse is leading eventually to Revelation chapter 18. I hope you can see how quickly the entire world situation can change. I hope you can see how quickly the end can come! In one hour cometh judgment! Friend, judgment for you is coming as quickly if you are not saved. Come to Christ, and live.

 

Revelation 18:2-24

2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,

13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.

14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,

18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!

19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;

23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

Khamenei: Iran will stand by Hamas, 'holy warrior' Haniyeh

Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday that Iran will stand beside the Hamas government in Gaza and that Israel is weakening and on the path to eventual destruction, state television reported. 

Khamenei, who has the final say on all state matters, called Hamas's prime minister in Gaza, Ismail Haniyeh, a "mujahed", or holy warrior, saying "the Iranian nation will never let you be alone."

Khamenei said Israel "has weakened day by day ... Today, officials of the Zionist regime acknowledge that they are moving towards weakness, destruction and defeat," according to state television.

"Definitely, the world of Islam will see that day and hope the existing generation of the Palestinian people will watch the day Palestine is at the disposal of the Palestinian people, in the hands of the landlords," he said at prayers marking the Islamic Eid al-Fitr holiday that ends the holy month of Ramadan.

Khamenei has predicted Israel's downfall in the past, like Iran's hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Khamenei has repeatedly called Israel a "cancerous tumor" that need to be removed from the Middle East.

Iran doesn't recognize Israel and backs Hamas and Islamic Jihad.

Israel had close ties with Iran when the late Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was in power. When the 1979 Islamic revolution toppled the shah, Iran broke ties with Israel and turned the Israeli embassy in Teheran into the Palestinian Authority embassy.


 

Islam is besides itself. Israel is coming off the worst Prime Minister ever. He put his personal liberal politics above the nation, and so weakened the military that Israel lost to the Arabs for the first time ever. Now the stock market had its greatest fall ever, and Islam is praising Allah. An Islamic invasion of Israel is no longer looked upon as some dreamy possibility, but now the question is when. Islam is beginning to unite sensing Allah is opening the door for invasion, and extermination of the Jews. Persia is one of the main players in the Islamic Jihad described by Ezekiel in chapters 38 & 39. It is no surprise to those who read their Bible that Iran (Old Persia) should be stirring the pot.

God has His way of drawing in the wicked unto their own destruction. Iran is pumping itself up for the "Last Jihad" according to Ezekiel. The truth is that Iran is weak, but only think they are strong as they praise Allah. They are talking themselves into destruction. Iran and all their allies have their fate already set in the Bible. The hook is being prepared to be set, and the battle is predicted to be quick and final.

Friend, what is your fate? Have you come to Christ for salvation? Are you washed in the sin cleansing blood of the Lamb? The LORD Jesus Christ is the only Savior. You must come to Him, or you will be condemned for all eternity. Dear friend, come to this Christ of the Bible, and live.

Joel 3:9-13

9 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:

10 Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.

11 Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Lord .

12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.

13 Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.

KJV

Ezekiel 38:4-5

4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:

KJV

U.S. Jews Prefer Obama, Concerned More About Economy than Israel

By Gil Ronen

(IsraelNN.com) Less than seven weeks before the U.S. presidential election, a survey of American Jews shows that they favor Democratic candidate Barack Obama by a near 2 to 1 margin. Asked whom they would vote for, 57 percent said Obama, 30 percent chose Republican candidate John McCain and the remaining 13 percent said they did not know.

Economy is the burning issue
In the survey, which was conducted for the American Jewish Committee, American Jews were asked "which one issue would you most like to hear the candidates for president discuss during the 2008 presidential campaign?"

Despite Israel's precarious predicament vis-à-vis Iran, Hizbullah and Hamas, only 3 percent answered "Israel." 54 percent said "economy," 11 percent chose "health care," 6 percent chose "war in Iraq" and 5 percent opted for "energy." "Israel" was in fifth place, and received just one percentag point more than "immigration," "education," "taxes" and "social security," which received 2 percent each.

Twenty-nine percent of the respondents said they felt "very close" to Israel and another 38 percent said they were "fairly close" to the Jewish state. Thirty-one percent were "distant" or "fairly distant."

Nine hundred and fourteen self-identifying Jewish respondents were interviewed by telephone for the survey in the second and third weeks of September. Eight percent said they were Orthodox, 58 percent were either Reform or Conservative and 31 percent said they were "just Jewish." Forty-four percent identified themselves as liberal, 30 percent as moderate and 24 percent as conservative.

Fifty-six percent identified as Democrats and just 17 percent as Republicans.

Split on a strike against Iran
Forty-seven percent opposed a U.S. military strike on Iran to prevent it from getting nuclear arms, and 42 percent were in favor of such a strike.

Fifty-six percent estimated that there will not come a time when Israel and its Arab neighbors will be able to settle their differences and live in peace, versus 38 percent who believe such a time will come.

When asked about anti-Semitism in the United States, 23 percent said it was a very serious problem, 63 percent said it was "somewhat of a problem" and 14 percent said it was not a problem at all.


 

 

It seems the Barbra Streisand type of Judaism dominates both here in the US, and over in Israel. It is a selfish Judaism that thinks about self first then others after self is well healed. One of the great promises God has made me in the Bible is that He is going to heal my heart completely. He not only saved me for today, but He is going to perfect me for tomorrow so I will be fit to be with my Holy God throughout eternity.  It is difficult for me to perceive what I will be like when sinlessly perfect, but it is the reality I desire. It is the promise of God. He will do what I can't.

Psalms 18:32

32 It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

KJV

Matthew 5:48

48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

KJV

Ephesians 4:13

13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

KJV

1 Peter 5:10-11

10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

KJV

This same promise of heavenly perfection is also extended to the Jews of the next dispensation afdter the Church Age ends. What God is going to do for me in full sanctification at death or the rapture is what He is about to do for many of the Jews now living in Israel. They are going to reach heights of sanctification of which I can only dream.

Revelation 14:1-5

14 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.

2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:

3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.

4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.

5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.

KJV

I am convinced these are the Jews who will build the next Holy Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount. Ezekiel has described that Temple of which they will build in Ezekiel 40 - 48. It is the only Temple to have a throne. A throne for the Lamb of whom these Jews will follow. The coming King of the Jews who will at His second coming sit.

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

Many of the Jews living in Israel are going to have their hearts changed. They are going to realize what Biblical redemption is all about. What about you my dear friend? The same redemption offered them on the morrow is offered to you right now. Will you accept it, or reject it to the detriment of your eternal soul? The same Biblical Christ who died at Calvary as the perfect atonement for sin is coming again to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount for the Jews of Israel. Jesus offers you this very moment salvation. All you need do is come to Him in humble repentance. He promises He will never reject the broken sinner coming to Him for the forgiveness of sin. It is Jesus who paid the price, and to Him you must go. Friend, come to Christ, and live.

 

1 Kings 8:52-53

52 That thine eyes may be open unto the supplication of thy servant, and unto the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken unto them in all that they call for unto thee.

53 For thou didst separate them from among all the people of the earth, to be thine inheritance, as thou spakest by the hand of Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God .

KJV

Exodus 19:5-6

5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:

6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

KJV

Deuteronomy 4:33-35

33 Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?

34 Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

35 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the Lord he is God; there is none else beside him.

KJV

Deuteronomy 7:6-8

6 For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.

7 The Lord did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people:

8 But because the Lord loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

KJV

French PM says world 'on edge of abyss'

 

 ... Prime Minister Fillon, whose country is hosting an emergency summit of Italian, British and German leaders on Saturday, said only collective action could solve the financial crisis. He said he would not rule out any solution to stop any bank failing.

"The world is on the edge of the abyss because of an irresponsible system," Fillon said, alluding to widespread anger over past lax regulation of financial markets and excessive lending....


Russia sees in credit crisis end of U.S. domination

Published: October 2, 2008

 

MOSCOW: The Russian president said in a speech Thursday that the financial crisis in the United States should be taken as a sign that America's global economic leadership is drawing to a close, reiterating an argument that leaders here have been making for some time, though investors in recent weeks have been fleeing Russia and depositing money in U.S. Treasury bills.

Perhaps inevitably for a country long lectured to by the United States, Russia is using the occasion of the U.S. financial crisis to do some lecturing of its own.

President Dmitri Medvedev said Thursday that the U.S. crisis showed that "the times when one economy and one country dominated are gone for good." Speaking of the United States, Medvedev said the world no longer needed a "megaregulator."

Russia has argued that the freewheeling Anglo-American style of capitalism is to blame for the crisis, a position echoed by Germany and other Continental European nations. Medvedev even called it financial "egoism."

A drumbeat of similar pronouncements has been heard in Russia in recent days. Prime Minister Vladimir Putin made a major speech Wednesday on U.S. financial "irresponsibility," blaming the plunge of more than 50 percent in the Russian stock market on the global economic slowdown and U.S. financial turmoil, rather than on any troubles endemic to Russia.

"The saddest thing is that we can see an inability to take appropriate decisions," Putin said in his speech after the U.S. House of Representatives rejected the Bush administration's bailout plan. In contrast, the Russian bailout was decided by decree.

"This is not the irresponsibility of some people but the irresponsibility of the system, which, as it is known, claimed to be the leader," Putin said.

Medvedev spoke Thursday at St. Petersburg State University during the eighth annual Petersburger Dialog, a forum devoted to developing relations with Germany and where he met with Chancellor Angela Merkel. Members of Merkel's government have also been critical of U.S. regulators.

Germany will "always support a multilateral approach" to market regulation, Merkel said, adding that officials from the European members of the Group of 8 industrialized nations would meet to discuss new market regulations, Bloomberg News reported.

But in contrast with other European countries Russia's own financial system has been in steep decline over the past weeks, and regulators suspended stock trading three times. As in other emerging markets during periods of turmoil, investors have had a tendency to pull money out of Russia and to deposit it in U.S. Treasury bills.

Since the second week in August, when the war in Georgia and political tension with the West heightened concerns about stability in Russia, $52 billion in net private capital has left Russia, according to an investor note from Goldman Sachs.

Russia has promised a total of about $150 billion for loans to banks, tax cuts and other measures. The moves seek to stimulate the economy, restore liquidity to the banking sector and return confidence in the stock market.

Still, the global credit crisis could trim about 1 percent from Russian growth next year, according to Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin.

 


 

 

An amassing thing happened last week. The United States, and its banking capital New York City is no longer the banking center of the Western World. The meetings of the Group of 8 Industrialized Nations is about to determine where the new banking center will be located. Folks, I don't know where it will temporarily be located, but I can tell you where it will finally be located. However, you are never going to believe me. How about Babylon? Now, before you start laughing think a little bit. This miraculous Third Exodus of our generation opened the door for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. We all know the antichrist must come, reign, and be overthrown at the end before Christ returns. He is described in the Bible as a financial wizard. He takes control of the planet through his economic manipulations. He creates a world wide economic system where no one is able to buy, or sell outside his control.

Revelation 13:17-18

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

KJV

Folks, I pray you have the wisdom to be able to understand what is happening today. The world stage is being set for the coming of the antichrist! He must come first before the second coming of Christ. The Jews must build Ezekiel's Temple with a throne where he will sit as the greatest usurper of all time. He will magnify himself as Christ during the last half of the 7 year Great Tribulation. He will stop the Biblical blood sacrificial system the Jews will be practicing in those days.

Daniel 8:11-14

11 Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.

13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

KJV

These Jews will be Messianic Jews who will have built Ezekiel's Temple in anticipation of the coming Christ. They will be daily offering blood sacrifice in remembrance of Calvary. The Church Age will have ended, and a new foundation will be being laid for the next Kingdom age dispensation. The antichrist will drive the faithful Jews out of Jerusalem into the wilderness for the last 3 1/2 years of the Great Tribulation. He will then meet his Waterloo at Armageddon.

The end of the Church Age is here. The end of the Times of the Gentiles has arrived. The antichrist is standing in the wings waiting for the world financial leaders to call him into action. Events are taking place very quickly now. The USA has been deposed almost overnight as the head of the world banking system. Watch Jerusalem for the coming Temple. Watch Babylon for the coming world headquarters of the antichrist. The time is short.

 

2 Thessalonians 2:3-5

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

KJV

Al-Qaida: US economic crisis equals Muslim victory

BY HADEEL AL-SHALCHI, Associated Press Writer

CAIRO, Egypt - An American member of al-Qaida pointed to economic troubles in the United States as proof that "the enemies of Islam" face defeat, in an English-language video released Saturday.

In a half hour video message, California-native Adam Gadahn urged Pakistanis to unite against their government and U.S. forces, and taunted Americans over their economic crisis, relating it to their military interventions.

"The enemies of Islam are facing a crushing defeat, which is beginning to manifest itself in the expanding crisis their economy is experiencing," said Gadahn, in a clip of the message distributed by the SITE Intelligence Group, a Washington-based monitor of militant Web sites.

"A crisis whose primary cause, in addition to the abortive and unsustainable crusades they are waging in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq, is their turning their backs on Allah's revealed laws, which forbid interest-bearing transactions, exploitation, greed and injustice in all its forms." .....


Arab World Celebrates Anniversary of 1973 "Victory"

by Ze'ev Ben-Yechiel

(IsraelNN.com) With Arab countries throughout the Middle East marking the 35th anniversary of the Yom Kippur War, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak called on his countrymen to embrace the “spirit of October,” while a Syrian newspaper called for unity among Arab nations

Speaking on Sunday in Cairo, Mubarak called on the people of Egypt to strengthen their nation by demonstrating the victorious spirit that supposedly prevailed in Cairo during their last war with Israel. An Egyptian media outlet also called on the government to release documents about the war that have been classified up to now, in order to underscore the “great Arab victory” in 1973.

Meanwhile, the Syrian newspaper Tishrin called on the Arab nations to unite “just as they did 35 years ago.” The newspaper also pointed to the ongoing negotiations with Israel over the Golan Heights, and reminded readers that “even the prime minister of Israel, Ehud Olmert, said that there would not be peace with Damscus unless all of the land was returned.” Syria has been in an official state of war with Israel since 1973, as it continues to refuse to sign any kind of armistice deal with its neighbor.

Arab nations are known to regard the Yom Kippur War as a victory against the Zionist aggressor. According to some historians, Egypt, which started the war by attacking Israeli fortifications along the Suez canal, knew that it would not be able to completely destroy the Jewish state. Rather, Egyptian and Syrian leaders hoped to use the war to awaken Israel to the reality of a much stronger Arab military and to force Israel to negotiate away some of the land it won in the previous 1967 war.  

Within a decade of the 1973 war, Israel indeed gave away the entire Sinai peninsula, and is currently considering the return of the Golan Heights to Syria. Therefore, according to certain analysts, the Arab nations can indeed claim victory.

 According to Army Radio, another Egyptian media source used the opportunity to urge the Egyptian government to release classified documents about the war. Declassifying the documents, the news agency said, would help maintain the "heritage of the great Arab victory."

 

 

 

 

The Holocaust never happened according to redacted Islamic history. The truth is turned into a lie. Islam can only exist by believing the lie. Now, the 1973 Yom Kippur War is also being redacted as a "Great Victory" for Egypt, and Syria even  though IDF forces had crossed the Suez Canal, and were threatening Cairo when the Egyptians began crying for mercy. Damascus on the other end of the battlefield was surrounded by the IDF, and crying for mercy also. This is the "Great Arab Victory of 1973. Within Islam the truth does not matter. Islam is telling the Arab Nations Allah gave them a great victory so they believe it. They look at the real Arab victory that Hizbullah had in the Second Lebanon War. They look at the crash of the Western World's economy. They are soon to see an American President named  Barack Hussein Obama in the White House, and are saying truly Allah has taken charge. What greater proof could the Arab world need in order to call for the "Last Jihad." The call for all Arabs to unite for a final Jihad invasion of Israel is not falling on deaf ears. The wiping of Israel off the map is being contemplated by a giddy Islamic world self convinced that victory is now theirs. The truth does not matter. The Arabs are flush with glee that Jewish blood is theirs for the taking.

Friend, The God of the Bible is about to destroy Islam. The foolish Arabs are going to believe the lie, and invade Beulah Land. An evil thought will permeate the Islamic world, and the desire to wipe out the apple of God's eye will bring about their forever demise. Ezekiel 38 & 39 must now be taken as imminent.

 

 

It is not just Islam that is going to fall, but this entire evil generation is at risk. What men thought was optional they are about toi find is a Biblical command, and that is to come to Christ. Eternal condemnation is the penalty for not coming to Christ. The Bible says for God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son. It is the evil rejection of God's love that brings His wrath. Judgment is coming to this generation. The LORD Jesus Christ is the measuring standard. The decision men make about Christ will determine their eternal future. Oh friend, come to this Christ of the Bible for the forgiveness of sin. Watch the fate of Islam, and realize the entire generation will follow. What is your fate? Will you be judged, or forgiven? The choice is yours.

Ezekiel 39:17-25

17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord God ; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.

18 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.

19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.

20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord God .

21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.

22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God from that day and forward.

23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.

24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.

25 Therefore thus saith the Lord God ; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;

Police Arrest Temple Institute Director

by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) While waiting in line to visit the Temple Mount early Sunday afternoon, Temple Institute Director Yehuda Glick was suddenly singled out and arrested.  A police spokesman said he would look into the incident. 

Glick was standing together with hundreds of others, many of whom had been denied entry in the first round of Temple Mount visiting hours on Sunday morning and were told to return at 12:30 PM.  The Moslem Waqf [Islamic Trust] is very strict about enforcing the Mount's visiting hours for Jews, and closes the gates sharply at 10 AM, opens them again at 12:30 PM, and closes them for the day an hour later.

Around 1 PM, Glick, who stands out in a crowd with his full shock-red beard, was suddenly approached by policemen, who told him they wanted to question him about his acts of "instigation and provocation," and then promptly arrested him and led him to a paddywagon.  In court later this afternoon, the police asked the judge to distance him from the Temple Mount area for 20 days. By 6:30 PM, the court hearing had still not been held.

Earlier this morning, at the Western Wall in Jerusalem's Old City, hundreds of Jews were permitted by police to ascend to the Temple Mount, Judaism's most sacred site - but only in groups of 20.  Many were thus left waiting on line for hours.  

Lawyer: This is Harassment
Attorney Baruch Ben-Yosef told Arutz-7, "This is harassment, plain and simple, just because he has successfully brought many new people to the Temple Mount, and because of what happened last Wednesday. It is an outrage."

What occurred last Wednesday was that Glick similarly found himself among hundreds of Jews who were not allowed to enter the Mount.  The four policemen on duty at the time were unable to handle the large crowds, and delayed the entry until the hour of 1:30 PM, when they said they could do nothing and that everyone must leave.  Glick and others said they refused to leave - until large forces of Yassam riot police arrived and "began pushing," according to one eyewitness.

Richman: Police Know They Were Wrong
Rabbi Chaim Richman of the Temple Institute, who was also present at the time, told Arutz-7, "What is particularly infuriating about this arrest is that the police know that it was their own fault last Wednesday.  We coordinated the list of visitors with them in advance, just as they had asked, and yet they still were unable to deal with us."

"A number of weeks ago," Richman explained, "the police told us that if we want to have many holiday visitors, we should give them their names in advance, and that that would speed the process along. So that is what we did! We gave them a list of 500 names - including people with little children and strollers, and people who came from as far away as Haifa - and yet they just turned us down flat and didn't let us in!"

Rabbi Richman said that later that day, "two police officers spoke with Yehuda and myself, and very cordially admitted that they had been at fault, and said that we should have a meeting to straighten everything out - and now they come up  and arrest him!"

Jerusalem Police District spokesperson Shmulik Ben-Ruby told Arutz-7 said he was not aware of the incident and would look into the matter.  A later call to him was not returned.

Ironically, the police control the visits only of Jews who ascend "in sanctity," i.e., having taken the halahkic precautions (such as immersion in a ritual bath] prescribed by those rabbis who permit visiting the Mount.  Those who appear to be ascending as mere "tourists" are permitted to visit without restriction.

 

 

 

 It must be very obvious that the secular liberal Jewish majority are opposed to any Jewish presents on the Temple Mount. On the other hand, most of the ultra-orthodox Jewish religious leaders have decided the Temple Mount is too holy for any ordinary Jew to ascend. They want total Jewish religious control so they alone regulate all activities forcing all to follow their restrictive decrees. These puffed up "know it alls" think only they have the authority to administer on the Mount. Honestly, I see little difference between these modern day Pharisees, and those whom Christ confronted during the last days of the Second Holy Jewish Temple.  I see the same secular Jewish majority snuggling up with the Romans and Herodians during the days of Christ now snuggling up with the world politicians, and their Road Map plan. Only a few individuals were ready to follow God, and the Bible when Christ came the first time, and it appears the same is true today as we approach the second coming.  The Jews of today must first have a desire to follow God before they will ever have a desire to follow Christ. They must be ready to stand against the secular as well as the corrupted religious leaders, and put the Bible above all other authority.

There is no group more persecuted for putting the Bible first as are the Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlers who have obeyed God to occupy the Promised Land. God preformed a great miracle in 1967. A miracle that has gone ignored by the world press. All of Judah and Samaria became Jewish at the conclusion of the Six Day War. The retreat of the Jordanian Army to the East side of the Jordan River turned the entire city of Jerusalem over to the Jews. The Jewel of Jerusalem the Temple Mount became Jewish for the first time since the days of Christ. The Jews could now obey God, and the Bible by reinstituting the Biblical sacrificial system as spelled out in the Book of Leviticus. The secular, and Religious leadership failed to act. The only Jews who made any attempt to obey were the Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlers who moved into Judah and Samaria causing the desert to bloom. Now the world is intent on turning back God's prophetic clock that is predicting the return of the LORD Jesus Christ to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount. Our own Evangelical President adopted the Russian authored Road Map as his own personal peace plan for the Holy Land. A blasphemous plan intent on turning back the clock to pre 1967 era. The politicians want to remove every Jew now living in Judah and Samaria. The intent is to take the Promised Land from the Jews, and give it to the Islamic barbarians who are sending suicide bombers out to murder Jews cowardly targeting woman and children first. It should be no wonder the second coming of Christ should find the world unchanged. This evil generation of today is as bad as any that went before.

It was only a few who recognized what God was doing when Christ came the first time, and dear friend I pray you are counted among the few who understand what is happening today. This world needs to be turned upside-down. The Evangelicals are in need of repentance! The world is ripe for judgment. Friend, have you come to Christ for salvation? Are you born again? This generation is on its way to hell. Will you stand on the Bible, and resist the evil that surrounds. Will you be among the few who come to Christ? Understand Christ is not coming this second time as a babe. He is coming as the4 King of the Universe, and every knee will bow to His irresistible power.

 

Luke 2:25-40

25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.

26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,

28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,

29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:

30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,

31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;

32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.

33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.

34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;

35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.

36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;

37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.

38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.

40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.

Hamas-Ruled Gaza Becoming Like Afghanistan

- Tariq al-Homayed, Asharq Alawsat-UK


Gaza is following in the footsteps of Afghanistan with regard to an abundance of arms, poverty, and division between one armed group and another, who are more than prepared to fight, leading to even greater divisions. Read More

 

 

 

It is no secret what the Islamic barbarians have done to the Gaza since they have taken over control. It is a country in chaos. It is not even safe for Islamic women and children to walk the streets. The overwhelming attitude is not to show the world how well Islam works, but rather the attitude is only killing their Jewish neighbors. This is barbarianism in its most basic form. A perpetual welfare state that can't support itself, but must take from the wealth of others to continue existence. A piranha among the civilized nations killing, and being killed for all the world to see. These Islamic Palestinian Arabs are the ones who introduced the modern world to airline hijacking. Remember the days before security lines? They led the way to 9/11. They then introduced us to the suicide bomber who would target Israeli youth gatherings as a favorite place of attack. They are truly barbarians to the very core. The Palestinian Arabs worked hard at producing such barbarianism. The entire culture had to be dedicated to the task. The conscience of the children had to be nurtured, and seared so that killing Jewish civilians could be done without remorse. From cradle to grave all the average Palestinian Arab hears is kill the hated Jews, and any who would support them. It starts with their parents, is supported by their neighborhoods. They hear it all through school from their teachers. They go to the mosque, and hear nothing but the religion of hate at the extreme. they  listen to the news which is singularly anti-Semitic.  They look to their politicians and never see a moderate in the Hamas controlled system. The moderates were murdered long ago. They are taught that all the wealth in the world belongs to them by divine right, but most especially the Holy Land. They are taught that the Jews have come to take it away. Understand, once the Islamic barbarians take care of the Jews they will be coming after your home no matter where. All belongs to the Islamic barbarians, and it is their divine right to take all that belongs to them by the sword should there be any resistance.

Folks, God knew all about the Islamic barbarians from the beginning. He knew they would stand in lock-step to prevent the LORD Jesus Christ from returning to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount as the coming again King of the Jews. God has already determined the fate of the Islamic barbarians. Back into the days of Ezekiel the prophet God revealed to mankind what was going to happen. A "Last Jihad" invasion of Israel is what Ezekiel predicted for the latter years (our time). I expect a do nothing President of the United States secretly sympathetic to the Islamic Palestinian cause will find his hands tied in inability to respond to the aid of the Jews. However, the hands of God will never be tied, and all that is said in Ezekiel 39 will transpire. The wrath of the God of the Bible will be released not just on Islam, but over a 7 year Great Tribulation period on all the gentile nations who were willing to let Islam do their dirty work of stopping the righteous King of Kings from taking away their power. Folks, we are moving into the days of dispensational change. The Church Age is ending. The Times of the Gentiles is coming to a close. The Kingdom Age is about to emerge. The chaos of sin is not going to rule, The Bible says it is Christ who will rule for the next 1000 years right here on earth. Will He be your King? Have you come to Him in repentance? Are you "born again?" The coming Kingdom is only for the saved. No religious hypocrites will be allowed to enter. sin is not going to ruin what Christ is about to establish. Yes, there will be a rebellion at the end when Satan is loosed leading to the Great White Throne Judgment, but before then mankind will experience a perfect culture where sin in every form will be outlawed. There will be no religion, There will only be Christ, and His righteous rod of iron rule. He will be all in one, He will be religion. He will be the government, He will be the only universal teacher. And, most importantly He will be our loving parent. The Bible says He will be our forever friend who's love will never fade. Friend, come to this Christ of the Bible for your salvation before it is too late. There is no fence sitting with Him. Either you ar born again, or you will face His wrath. Islam is about to find what the wrath of Christ is all about. Do not follow them into everlasting torment. Come to Christ, and live.

 

Ezekiel 39

The End of Islam


39:1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2 And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.

4 Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.

5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
6 And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.


7 So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8 Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the day whereof I have spoken.


9 And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:
10 So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord GOD.

 

11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamon-gog.


12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.


13 Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.

14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.


15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man's bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamon-gog.
16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.


17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.

18 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.

20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.


21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.

22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.

23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.
24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.

25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;

26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.

27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28 Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which cause them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Temple Mount Visit Cut Short by Arab Mob

by Hillel Fendel

 
 

(IsraelNN.com) A mob of dozens of Arabs threatened and nearly surrounded a group of Jewish worshipers who visited the Temple Mount over the Simchat Torah holiday on Tuesday. The police told the Jews to leave.

The Arabs, who were preparing for a demonstration, approached the Jewish group and chanted "Allahu Akbar" - a phrase ostensibly praising G-d, but often used to herald an imminent terrorist attack.

The police then intervened, told the Jews they should cut their visit short, and arrested two Arabs suspected of inciting the mob.  No one was hurt.

Last week, during the Sukkot holiday, Temple Institute Director Yehuda Glick was arrested for several hours while waiting in line with hundreds of others to visit the Temple Mount.  The police accused him of "instigation and provocation" in the framework of his activities to encourage Jews to visit the Mount, and asked for a court order keeping him away from the area for six months.  Even after the police reduced their demand to 20 days, Jerusalem Magistrates Court Judge Morris Ben-Attar ordered them to release Glick immediately.

The judge stated emphatically that the Jewish right to pray on the Temple Mount is legally guaranteed by the State of Israel.

Some 400 people visited the Mount, Judaism's most sacred site, on Tuesday morning, and another 500 attempted to do so that afternoon - after having coordinated their plans with the police in advance.  Despite this, the police were not prepared for such large numbers, refused to allow them in - and arrested Glick in the process.

Speaking later with Arutz-7, Glick expressed "sorrow that the police, instead of admitting their failure in preparing for the hundreds of visitors - even though they knew about them for months in advance - chose instead to take revenge on someone who has led an approach of cooperation with the police."

Glick said that the Tuesday holiday visit did not even start off smoothly: "It was a group of 16 members of the family of Rabbi Yosef Elboim, who has been promoting Temple Mount awareness for 40 years.  But the police said that only 15 people were allowed up at once... It took them 20 minutes to decide that the 16th person could also go up.  Then, while the Arabs were preparing to demonstrate, the police didn't do anything, and when it began to be a little dangerous, they told the Jews that they had to leave."

Ascent to the Temple Mount is a matter of rabbinic dispute.  Many say that it is forbidden according to Jewish Law, because of the danger of setting foot in Biblically-prohibited areas.  Other rabbis, however, say that these areas can be clearly delineated, and that those who immerse in a ritual bath [mikveh] and take other rabbinically-prescribed precautions before their visit can be assured that they will walk only in permitted areas. The latter add that it is not only permitted, but also recommended, to visit the Mount under these circumstances.

 

 

 

The Jews, and Judaism left the Bible long ago. When Christ came the first time He encouraged the Jews of His day to return to the simplicity of the Biblical teachings. He accused the religious leaders of hypocrisy. The entire system was in need of restoration. The plan of God from the very first Holy Jewish Temple was that the Messiah would come some day, and establish His throne there. From the Temple He would not only rule the Jews, but the entire planet as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. The Jews turned away from God and lost both the Temple, and the Holy Land to the Babylonians. They were allowed to return, and build the second Holy Jewish Temple on the same Temple Mount. To this Temple the Messiah came. He was crucified by the Roman gentiles as the only perfect atonement for sin, but was resurrected after only three days proving He was victorious over sin and death. He would have established His Kingdom at that time in the second Holy Jewish Temple if it was not for the rejection He met at the hands of the Jews.

John 1:10-12

10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

KJV

Matthew 27:24-25

24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.

25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.

KJV

 

And so it is today that Christ is still rejected by the Jews, and the Kingdom that John the Baptist proclaimed waits upon the Jews to change their attitude toward Christ. That change is predicted in the Bible for this generation of Jews. The truthfulness of the offer of the Kingdom is again valid with the establishment of the State of Israel. The reality of the Messiah sitting on His throne in a third Holy Jewish Temple is being fought for by a small remnant of Jews in the courts today. Realistically, Islam must be wiped off the map before the next Holy Jewish Temple can be built. God has already revealed in the Bible that very thing in Ezekiel 39. As sad as it is for me to say, Islam believes what the Bible says more then main stream Christianity and Judaism. Islam reads the Bible, and fears! Their evil religious leaders tell them not to fear. They tell them not to believe the Bible, but believe the Koran. Yet, it is the Bible that is coming to pass just as it always said. The Jews are back in the land. Islam can't remove them. Soon all Islam fears the Jews will begin to build the third Holy Jewish Temple. Islam knows nothing can stop the true God from fulfilling His will in the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and on the Temple Mount.  It is not going to go the way of the Koran.

Friend, who do you believe? The world politicians are demanding all  of Judah and Samaria, most of Jerusalem, and all of the Temple Mount be given to the Islamists. It is this evil generation's only acceptable peace plan for the Holy Land. They want to be certain the Koran wins over the Bible. They think they have a better plan then God Himself. Their commitment to the God of the Bible is so shallow that they would have Him renege on the promises He made to the Jews about their Promised Land. They think they can do with the Holy Land whatever they want with no regard to what the Bible says. These pompous politicians are but flashes in the pan, but think they are godlike while in office.

A third Holy Jewish Temple must be built. Islam must step aside, or be wiped off the map. The third miraculous Jewish Exodus of our generation seals this as the generation to experience dispensational change. The die is cast, and nothing can change the Biblical plan God has revealed in the Bible for the future of the Temple Mount. These little men who find themselves in positions of authority will soon face the consequences of their bias attitude toward the Almighty. I'm glad I'm not in their shoes. I know my future is fixed in the coming Kingdom Age. Fixed by Christ who was the perfect atoning sacrifice at Calvary when He came the first time. Fixed because I repented of my sins, and cast myself upon the mercy of the LORD Jesus Christ. Some try to say that sounds like works, but I say there will be none in the Kingdom who have not repented. Repentance is what John the Baptist demanded before he would consider baptism as the confirmation of a saved soul. John knew all about grace yet he demanded repentance. There is no salvation without repentance. Friend, I implore you to do so, Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. The LORD Jesus Christ is coming again to the Holy Land. Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount. He is soon to sit on the throne that will be established for His return in the last Holy Jewish Temple to be built on the Temple ount. Ezekiel's Temple which is the only one that will have a throne. Are you ready for it's soon construction?

 

Psalms 97:2

2 Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.

KJV

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

Zechariah 6:13

13 Even he shall build the temple of the Lord ; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

KJV

Revelation 22:3-5

3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:

4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

KJV

US Court Hears Passport Case on Jerusalem as Capital

by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu

IsraelNN.com) A United States court is hearing an appeal by an American family living in Jerusalem that the State Department be required to allow their son's passport to list Jerusalem as part of Israel. The American government has refused to do so because it argues that the post-1967 areas of the city are disputed under international law.

 

Lawyers for Ari and Naomi Zivotofsky told the federal court in Washington, D.C. that the a 2003 law signed by American President George W. Bush states that American citizens born in Jerusalem can demand that "Israel" be stamped next to the city's name. The State Department has maintained that the law is "advisory."

 

The family's son Menachem was born in Jerusalem's Sha'arei Tzedek Hospital shortly after the law was signed.

 

The State Department also argues that that the law states that it should not “interfere with the president’s constitutional authority to formulate the position of the United States.”

 

Attorneys Nat and Aliza Lewin, a father-daughter team, argued that the State Department policy is discriminatory.

 

“This is not about where the capital is, it’s about our legal rights,” Brooklyn-born Zivotofsky told the New York Jewish Week. He and his wife have lived in Israel since 1999 and he is a neuroscience professor at Bar-Ilan University.

 

A Court of Appeals previously reversed a District Court decision that dismissed the original complaint and sent the case back to it. However, the same judge, Gladys Kessler, again decided in favor of the government.

 

Zivotofsky said he is pursuing the case because “it’s philosophically important to us that western Jerusalem be treated as any other part of Israel. Their son Menachem was six-years-old when the State Department refused to stamp his passport with Jerusalem as being part of Israel (Israel News).

 

 

I am thankful that God is greater then the United States of America. We are a great country. Our Christian heritage is a testimony to this world of sin, but we come far short of perfection which can only be found in God and the Bible. It is God Almighty who has decreed that Jerusalem shall be Jewish. Not just part of Jerusalem, but all of Jerusalem. It is the God of the Bible who has decreed that Jerusalem will forever be the perpetual capital of Israel. The opinion of little men working in the State Depatment carry little weight in the big picture when placed next to the Bible.

Psalms 79:1

79 O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.

KJV

Psalms 102:19-21

19 For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the Lord behold the earth;

20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;

21 To declare the name of the Lord in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;

KJV

Isaiah 2:3

3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord , to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

KJV

1 Kings 9:3

3 And the Lord said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.

KJV

2 Chronicles 6:6

6 But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

KJV

Yes, it is true as true can be that the Great God of the Bible has chosen Jerusalem, and nothing can change His eternal decision. He has given the seed of Jacob not Ishmael or Esau, and certainly not the USA the responsibility to be the stewards of Jerusalem. Our State Department oversteps its bounds when making decisions contrary to what God has decreed. Remember when Christ came the first time there were no good guys. There was only a planet in need of repentance. There were no good religious leaders, and there certainly were no good political leaders. They were all in need of repentance! John the Baptist had a singular message as the voice crying out from the wilderness. "Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!" Folks, as true as it was at the first coming, so also is it true in these last days before the second coming.

Friend, come to Christ in repentance for your sin, or the offer of the Kingdom will never be availed to you. It is the Kingdom, or eternal torment in the lake of fire. You must be "born again" dear friend. Not by a phony Benny Hinn, or the rest of the phony religious main stream leaders, but through humbled men of God who have never used Christ for profit. Compare the biblical John the Baptist to the TV star evangelists. The wrong men have been put in the forefront of today's worldly religious system. Salvation through these phonies is worthless. You must come to the Christ of the Bible, not the christ of the phonies with their diamond rings and Lear jets. Phony religion has no more power to save as does phony government. Christ is going to replace all the phoniness. He is going to be Prophet, Priest, and King. Only He has the power to save, and He has never found a single good man, or religion to entrust such power. It is to Christ, and Christ alone where you must go.

 

Matthew 3:1-7

3 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,

2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

4 And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,

6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

Support of Obama Rising Among U.S. Jews

by Gil Ronen

(IsraelNN.com) Jewish voters in the U.S. have increased their support for Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) for president since he won the Democratic nomination in June. They now favor Obama over Senator John McCain (R-AZ) by more than 3 to 1, 74 percent to 22 percent.

The pattern of support for Obama among Jews is different from that in the general population. Support for the Democratic candidate was fairly stable from June through September, but rose sharply in October, in an apparent reaction to the U.S. economic crisis. By contrast, support for Obama among Jewish voters expanded more gradually, from just over 60 percent in June and July to 66 percent in August, 69 percent in September.

Support identical to 2004
According to Gallup, the current level of support among U.S. Jews for Obama is identical to the support John Kerry and John Edwards received from the Jews in the 2004 presidential election. It is only six percentage points lower than what Al Gore and Joe Lieberman received in 2000, which was the first time that a Jew appeared on the presidential ticket of a major party.

Recent support for Obama is a slightly higher among elderly Jews than among Jews younger than 55. The poll found that while about three quarters of Jews aged 55 and older support Obama for president, Jews under 55 supported him by just a 2:1 margin. Gallup did not explain how the overall proportion of Jewish supporters for Obama could be identical to the level of support he receives from Jews over 55, despite the fact that the younger age groups favor him less.

About 56 percent of Jews are Democrats, 29 percent are independent, and only about 15 percent are Republicans.

Record holder: Reagan
Except for Jimmy Carter in 1980, no Democratic presidential candidate has failed to win  a majority of American Jews since in the last 80 years. The all-time Republican record holder for Jewish support was Ronald Reagan, who earned 39 percent of the Jewish vote that year.

President George W. Bush captured 22 percent of the Jewish vote nationwide in 2004.

According to a 2006 survey conducted by the American Jewish Committee, 15 percent of American Jews now identify as Republican and nearly 30 percent consider themselves independent.

 

 

 

The Bible says God has blinded the Jews because of their disobedience. They lost both their Temple, and their land once to the Babylonians, and again to the Romans. The Bible is clear they are not going to lose either the soon coming third Holy Jewish Temple, or their Promised Land again. This time the Messiah is going to take control. The blindness will be lifted, and the Jews will finally be the obedient children He always desired.

Folks, this is the conclusion of the coming Islamic invasion of Israel so clearly revealed in Ezekiel 38 & 39. The blindness will be lifted, and God will no longer hide His face (the Jews may even become Republicans <ha ha>). It is a wondrous plan which only the God of the Bible could conceive, and bring to pass. Islam will be destroyed, and the door opened for the building of Ezekiel's Temple described chronologically after Ezekiel 39 from chapters 40 to the end of the Book.

What about your blindness dear friend? Are you ready to allow God to reveal His face to you? It can only happen through the LORD Jesus Christ. He is the returning Jewish Messiah/King. He is the only acceptable atonement for sin. He laid down His perfect life at Calvary, and was then resurrected from the dead proving He had victory over sin and death. He wants to save you dear friend, but He will not force Himself upon you. It is you who must decide if you will come to Him for the forgiveness of your sins. Friend, you must repent! You must humble yourself before Him. You must come with all your heart, soul, and might before He will reveal Himself. Friend, you can come with confidence for there is no record of any broken hearted sinner coming for forgiveness who has ever been turned away. There is no sin so great that the blood of Christ can't wash away forever. Oh friend, come to this Christ of the Bible, and live.

 

Ezekiel 39:21-29

21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.

22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God from that day and forward.

23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.

24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.

25 Therefore thus saith the Lord God ; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;

26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.

27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;

28 Then shall they know that I am the Lord their God, which cause them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.

29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God .

PA Deploys, Israeli Govt Force Destroys Jewish Home in Hevron

by Hana Levi Julian

(IsraelNN.com) IDF captains who supervised the midnight destruction of the Federman family home near the Judean twin cities of Kiryat Arba and Hevron Saturday night will face lawsuits, vowed Orit Struck of the Judea & Samaria Human Rights activist organization. Struck said Sunday morning that the soldiers and Border Police officers who destroyed the home came in the middle of the night, without orders.

 

Hundreds of police officers burst into a farm owned by nationalist activist Noam Federman in the middle of the night, hours after the end of the Sabbath, prepared to destroy the home.  Click here for a detailed account by Noam's wife.

 

The officials, who came equipped with tractors and other equipment, claimed the farm, which is located near the Judean twin cities of Kiryat Arba-Hevron, was built illegally.

 

The tractors demolished the family's home, while officers arrested Federman, his wife and his children and took them away from the scene. Noam Federman remained in custody following the completion of the destruction of his home.

 

Destruction Linked to Deployment of PA Special Forces

Struck linked the destruction of the Federman farm to the deployment in Hevron of hundreds of armed Palestinian Authority special forces in the day.  

 

"The cat's out of the bag," she warned. "The deployment of PA troops in Hevron was meant to free up IDF manpower from missions involving fighting terrorism, providing security and saving lives, to missions of expelling Jews from their homes and destroying lives."

 

"It is terrifying what a corrupt government is capable of doing even in its death throes," Struck said.

 

Residents of Kiryat Arba and Hevron harshly criticized police for carrying out the destruction "like thieves in the night."

 

Violent Demonstrators Retaliate Against Destruction

Eyewitnesses said Jewish youths from around the region attacked police and local Arabs after the home was demolished in what they termed was an attempt to exact a price for the destruction of the Federman farm. The youths hurled rocks at the soldiers and Border Police officers who destroyed the home.

 

None of the government troops were injured by the stones. Five protestors were wounded by officers, however, and two required medical attention.

 

Several Arab cars were damaged, most with punctured tires. Youths also threw stones at Arab-owned homes. No damage to the houses was reported.

 

 

 

 

This evil generation is fixed on implementing the Road Map even when the blasphemous governments that adopted it are going out of office. The intent is to saddle the in coming governments with the Road Map as an irrevocable inheritance that can't be changed.

I know of no other government that arrests entire families including the children when property rights are at issue. The present humiliated Olmert government is guilty. Only the Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlers face such an outrage as has happened this very week. How sad that their civil rights are never a cause taken up by the world press. They are hated because they as Independent Fundamental Settlers are the only Jews on the planet that are obeying the God of the Bible. They are occupying the Promised Land as commanded by God.

I have no doubts that the hate of this evil generation is only going to increase against any who would dare to obey the Bible. I suspect the incoming governments both in Israel and America will not be friends to either obedient Jews or Christians. The main stream religious hypocrites will have no problems, but those who would stand true to the Bible are going to find increasing persecution. This is not a Pat Robertson type phony New Years revelation from God. It is just a practical conclusion of what the Bible predicts, and what I read in the news.

The politicians will never bring peace to this planet. The Road Map that would turn the clock back to pre 1967 days is foolishness. There was no peace when Islam contorted all of Judah and Samaria including Jerusalem and the Temple Mount. The 1967 war is proof of that. The political philosophy of turning back the clock is baloney. Taking away the Federman Farm, and giving it to Islam is political foolishness. We must continue going forward with God's plan for the building of the next Holy Jewish Temple. Peace is only going to come to the planet through the LORD Jesus Christ. He is coming again according to the Bible to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount. Are you ready? The future is not in foolishly trying to turn back the prophetic clock, but going forward with the God of the Bible.

 

Leviticus 20:24

24 But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the Lord your God, which have separated you from other people.

21 Behold, the Lord thy God hath set the land before thee: go up and possess it, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.

11 Which thou hast commanded by thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to possess it, is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness.

12 Now therefore give not your daughters unto their sons, neither take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their peace or their wealth for ever: that ye may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children for ever.

Parties Prepare: Labor is Strapped, Likud Seeking New Blood

by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) Though elections have been predicted for months,  the parties are now scrambling to prepare as the 90-day countdown is about to begin.

According to the law, now that Kadima leader Tzipi Livni has admitted failure in her attempt to form a government, President Peres must give the Knesset the option of giving one of its members the responsibility of making a similar attempt.  However, it appears that the Knesset will forego this privilege, and will vote to schedule elections at the earliest possible date - 90 days from now.

The Likud, which has been favored to win almost since the last elections, is now slightly behind in the polls.  Most pundits feel, however, that this is the result of the recent events in which Kadima leader Tzipi Livni appeared to be "rejecting Shas blackmail" by choosing to opt for new elections.

Likud leader Binyamin Netanyahu, who has a solid hold on the party leadership, has brought in some new blood to the party - and appears to be seeking more.  The two notable recent acquisitions were ex-Police Commissioner Assaf Hefetz and ex-National Security Advisor Gen. (res.) Uzi Dayan.  Neither of them are particularly known for right-wing ideology, and Dayan is actually considered left-wing

New names that Netanyahu is interested in including in the Likud are former IDF Chief of Staff Moshe Yaalon - an outspoken opponent of the Disengagement from Gush Katif and northern Shomron in 2005 - and former Finance Minister Dan Meridor, a long-time Likud MK whose views gradually became more centrist over the years.

Likud party primaries to decide the party's Knesset candidates and their placement on the party list are currently expected to take place in early December.  Netanyahu is reportedly considering trying to reserve spots for his new acquisitions, but will face opposition from the incumbent MKs.

Labor is Strapped, Discordant and Unpopular
Meanwhile, in Labor, the financial situation is such that the party might not even be able to afford such primaries.  In addition, party leader Ehud Barak has been facing internal criticism for having agreed to join Livni's Kadima government, and the criticism is now mounting.  Adding salt to these wounds is the simple fact that Labor is not very popular, receiving less than 10% of public support in recent polls.

The Shas party has gained points among its electorate, for taking a strong stand on two points: Demanding a return to higher child allowances for medium-sized and large families, and demanding that Jerusalem remain undivided and Israeli despite negotiations with the Palestinian Authority.


Poll: More Israelis Would Vote for McCain

(IsraelNN.com) A telephone poll now published found that over 46 percent of the voting-age Israelis would choose U.S. Presidential Candidate John McCain over his rival Barack Obama. Thirty four (34%) percent would vote for Obama, and over 18 percent were uncertain.

 

 

 

 

The Jews of Israel seem to be coming to their senses. The liberal rule of Olmert was too devastating even for the liberal majority of Israeli Jews. The country is turning to the minority conservative politicians in hopes they have a better plan for peace and stability. The American Jews are about to suffer through the same devastation should their favorite candidate Obama win. The polls say the American Jews are voting 2 to 1 in favor of the liberal politician Obama. The lesson of Olmert seems to have gone unheeded here in America. The liberal Democrats are poised to take control of America as Olmert had control over Israel. Watch for the politicization of the military should the liberals take control of government. Watch to see if the American liberals open the doors for the homosexuals to have unrestricted access to all branches of the services. Watch to see if the Military Criminal Investigation Departments are forbidden to work on any cases involving homosexuality. Israel had to experience their own Viet Nam in Lebanon to realize the danger when the liberals have total control. I suspect the same will hold true for us here in America.

God is in the process changing dispensations. The gentile Church Age is ending, and the Jewish Kingdom Age is about to begin. The plan now is teaching the Jews that their trust in politicians is futile. Peace is never going to come no matter liberal, or conservative. The plan is for the Jews to see the truth of giving up on the politicians, and turning to the God of their fathers. A new foundation must be laid in Israel once the Church Age ends. The Bible is clear what God has in mind for the Jews of Israel. This is the only change that is relevant to this generation whether Jew or gentile. 

Friend, God is ready to change your heart right now. You must come to the Jewish Messiah who is the only acceptable atonement for sin. He made the perfect sacrifice at Calvary, and His resurrection proved He has victory over sin and death. Only Christ has the power to change the heart of stone into a heart of flesh. Only Christ can change the cold hearted sinner, into a sensitive caring saint. The Bible says many of the Jews are going to be redeemed laying the new foundation for the coming Kingdom Age. What about you living at the end of this present Church Age dispensation. Will you come to this Christ of the Bible for your salvation? Don't let this opportunity to come to Christ pass you by. Humble yourself in prayer, and come to Him for the forgiveness of your sins. Stop walking after the detestable things of this evil generation. Come to Christ, and live.

 

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 .

Choose your enemy: Moscow or Tehran


Amnon Rubinstein, The Jerusalem Post


Whoever is elected US president next month will have to take a vital decision on how to deal with two clear and present crises: an imminent-nuclear Iran and an ebullient, post-Georgia Russia. The two issues are clearly interconnected: Russia under Vladimir Putin and Dmitri Medvedev will not allow - and will even thwart - effective UN sanctions against Iran until differences with a US-led alliance are remedied and the past East-West understanding is restored. That this interdependence affects the future of Israel and the entire Middle-East is also manifestly clear...  Read More
 

 

 

 

Folks, if you have not read Ezekiel 38 & 39 recently, today would be a good time to refresh your memory. Both Russia, and Iran are mentioned as part of a coalition in this prophecy waiting to be fulfilled. The Gog of Ezekiel have been identified as the Russians by Bible scholars hundreds of years ago. The Islamic Arabs of Iran only recently changed its name. It was known for thousands of years before as Persia. It is the Russian - Gog / Iranian - Persia coalition of today that perks the ears of many Bible scholars causing them to take a closer look at Ezekiel 38 & 39.

Ezekiel went all the way back to the time of Noah when he described this future invasion of Israel. The invaders are for the most part described through the lands settled by the grand, great grand, and great great grandsons of Noah.

Genesis 10:1-7

10 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.

2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.

3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.

4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.

6 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.

7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.

KJV

 

Folks. if you ever wondered why Christ said the time of His return would be like the days of Noe. Here is a good reason to add to the others. Because Ezekiel went back to that era when he introduced his prophecy of the coming invasion of Israel.

Matthew 24:37-39

37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

KJV

Ezekiel 38:1-7

38 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,

3 And say, Thus saith the Lord God ; Behold I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:

4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:

6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.

7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.

KJV

 

Ethiopia is Cush in the original Hebrew, and Libya is Phut. The words Ethiopia and LLibya are only translations into English of the origonal Hebrew Cush and Phut. Most of these names do not occur anywhere else in the Bible other then Ezekiel's prophecy, and the First Chapter of First Chronicles where the Genesis passage is repeated by the chronicler showing how accurately the Genesis passage has been preserved through the ages. Notice that Persia is introduced in the same passage that mentions Cush and Phut in Ezekiel. It is no little thing that the Russian Gog, and the Iranian Persia should appear in the same coalition mentioned by Ezekiel in his prophecy. A prophecy written thousands of years ago for the very days we now live.

Folks, do you see how the Bible and the news of our day are coming together. We are truly in the last days of Bible prophecy. The LORD Jesus Christ chided the Jews of His day for not knowing the importance of the days in which they lived. I pray the same indictment not be made of you?

Matthew 16:2-3

2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.

3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?

KJV

 

Ezekiel 39

The End of Islam


39:1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2 And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.

4 Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.

5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
6 And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.


7 So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8 Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the day whereof I have spoken.


9 And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:
10 So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord GOD.

 

11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamon-gog.


12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.


13 Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.

14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.


15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man's bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamon-gog.
16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.


17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.

18 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.

20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.


21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.

22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.

23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.
24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.

25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;

26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.

27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28 Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which cause them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Barak Calls for 'Iron Fist' Against Judea, Samaria Protesters

by Maayana Miskin

(IsraelNN.com) Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Monday that the government would crack down on Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria accused of fighting police and soldiers while the latter destroy Jewish towns.We're going to punish xtremist elements more harshly,” Barak told Yaron Dekel of government-controlled Kol Yisrael (Voice of Israel) Radio.

Barak discussed the destruction of the Federman family farm near Hevron that took place late on Saturday night. As soldiers destroyed the home, hitting the mother and young children and ruining the family's belongings, a bystander angrily said he wished the soldiers destroying the home would be captured in battle. Barak chose to focus on the bystander's statement, saying, “The things that were said are very serious, and we're already working to reign in these phenomena and to stop them with an iron fist if necessary.”

Barak said he would act harshly “because it's not just statements. There, it was statements, in other places it's actions, it's violence against soldiers and policemen.”

"Not all Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria are a threat to law and order," Barak said. However, when it comes to those who fight soldiers and police, he continued, such as those who protested the destruction of the Federman farm, “that's clearly an attempt to undermine the state's authority over its civilians, and requires harsh action with no compromises.”

The first step in punishing Jews who protest the destruction of communities lacking government approval will involve using existing punishments more frequently, Barak said. “We'll need to find a way to convince our judges that we're not talking about just another case of interfering with a public official as he performs his duty to national security, but rather an attempt to undermine the state's authority, and therefore these people must be put behind bars,” he explained.

The second step, Barak said, would involve using laws reserved for use in emergency situations; laws which allow the government to take steps that would otherwise be considered undemocratic. “If there won't be a choice, we'll need to consider using the emergency regulations,” he said. The regulations in question “are a remnant of the British Mandate.

The “emergency regulations” would allow security forces to arrest suspects without charges and without a warrant. “They allow a different course of action, that allows us to [immediately] arrest people who otherwise would not be arrested for another six months, if at all,” he explained. The regulations would only be used if necessary, he added, “in order to secure the state's authority over its citizens.”

Barak did not say whether or not the new, harsher punishments would be used against Israeli leftists who stone border police in protests against the separation barrier as well, or only against the Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria.


 

 

 

 

When the liberals take charge of the government this is the kind of justice that can be expected. It is happening in Israel today. The majority liberal Jews now running the government are poised to beat into submission the conservative Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlers who are obeying the commands of God to occupy the Promised Land. Olmert politicized the Army when he realized that the conservative soldiers would not follow his brutal orders to evict the settlers out of Judah and Samaria with an iron fist. Liberal political alignment became the rule for advancement. The unexpected result was the debacle in Lebanon when the Army was unable to stop Hizbullah from firing rockets further and further into Israel. The Jews for the first time lost to the Arabs, and had to pull out of Lebanon with their tails between their legs. The nation is in the process of throwing Olmert out, and the polls show the conservative Benjamin Netanyahu now expected to be his replacement. Ehud Barak is a left over from the Olmert government also on his way out. The hate he exhibits toward the Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlers is alarming. He would put them all behind bars. Imagine here in America some liberal politician demanding all the Baptists be put in prison because of his determination that their fundamental beliefs leads to sedition. This is what is happening in Israel today as the Olmert government goes through its death throngs. Imagine Obama, Pelosi, and Barney Frank determining how every citizen should think. Imagine how the military will be forced to accept without any restrictions homosexuals once Barney Frank's influence is felt. I can only pray America takes a good look at the Olmert government before the elections. One of the first things Olmert did was to force the conservative religious Jews living in Jerusalem to accept gay pride parades through their city. The parades were always held in secular Tel Aviv. Previous governments were sensitive to the ultra-orthodox religious community congregated in Jerusalem, and would not issue parade permits there in respect for the holiness of the site.  Olmert took charge, and immediately forced Jerusalemites to submit to his perverted liberal standards. The gays came to Jerusalem for the last two years now waving their bare butts for all to see including the little children. See how vindictive the liberals are when they have power. It is exemplified by the Olmert government. They literally turned the city of Jerusalem into Sodom.

Revelation 11:8

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.

KJV

 

Judgment is coming to this evil generation. The antichrist is ready to pick up where Barney Frank is leaving off in leading the world into our present financial crises. Don't be too harsh on Barney. The likelihood is the antichrist will stab him in the back once his financial power is transferred to this coming man of sin. 666 will be realized when the citizens of this evil generation try to buy or sell. They will find the financial guru who will promise to fix this crises has instead put them into his bondage.

Friend, the only way to be truly free of the evil of this generation is to be in Christ. What mark are you going to be wearing in the near future? Come to Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and live. Reign with Him who is coming again to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount.

 

Revelation 13:16-18

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

KJV

Revelation 14:11

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

KJV

Revelation 16:2

2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.

KJV

Revelation 20:4

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.

First Temple-Era Water Tunnel Revealed in Jerusalem

by Hana Levi Julian

(IsraelNN.com) A tunnel built thousands of years ago – and which may even have been used during King David's conquest of Jerusalem – has been uncovered in the ancient City of David, just outside the Old City and across the street from the Dung Gate.

Renowned Israeli archaeologist Dr. Eilat Mazer, who is leading the dig, revealed the findings from the discovery Thursday morning at an archaeological symposium at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

 

Mazer, who also uncovered King David's palace, has led the world in ancient Jerusalem findings. Some of her other discoveries have included proof of another Biblical story, in the Book of Jeremiah. A completely intact seal impression, or "bula," bearing the name Gedaliahu ben Pashur was uncovered. The bula is actually a stamped engraving made of mortar. Mazer also found a second such impression not far away, as as well as the remnants of a wall from the prophet Nechemia.

 

The archaeologist said there is a high probability that the tunnel is the one referred to as the "tsinor" in the Biblical story of King David's conquest of Jerusalem (Samuel II, 5:6-8; Chronicles I, 11:4-6).

 

"The new discoveries in the excavations in the City of David illuminate the ancient history of Jerusalem and the reality described in the Bible," she noted.

 

Ancient Engineering, Lasting Technology

The opening to the 3,000-year-old tunnel was found earlier this year during the ongoing excavations at the site. The tunnel itself is located under a mammoth stone building that was previously identified as King David's palace, built some time during the 10th century B.C.E., according to the Gregorian calendar.

 

Barely wide enough to allow a single person through, the walls of the passage were apparently created partly by carving rough stones, partly by making use of the existing bedrock. Only the first 50 meters are accessible at present, since the tunnel is filled with fallen rocks and debris, said Mazer.

 

Whole, undamaged oil lamps that were characteristic of the First Temple period were found on the floor of the tunnel during the dig.

 

The archaeologist added that the tunnel was probably used to channel water to a pool by the palace, and eventually was converted to an escape passage near the end of the First Temple period. Additional walls were built to block the tunnel from the sight of anyone of the nearby hill and to protect it from debris filtering in.

 

The dig, which is being sponsored by the Shalem Center research institute and the City of David Foundation, was carried out under the academic auspices of the Hebrew University.


 

 

 

 

Islam is in overdrive doing everything it can to defame this most recent find. Islamic theology is built upon the lie that the Jews never had a King David, or any ancient presents anywhere around the Temple Mount. The lies of Islamic theology can't stand in the light of truth uncovered by the archeologists spades. Islam has taught the gullible since the beginning that the already existing Bible is a Zionist lie, and they should only believe the Koran under penalty of death. This despite the fact that the Bible was written over a period of 2000 years by 40 different authors without a single error, and centralized around one single message that being about the Savior of the world. The Koran, to the contrary, was written by one single unstable  man named Mohammed without any other confirmation, or proof that it was revealed from God. Either you believe Mohammed's singular rantings no matter what, or you can't be a Moslem.

This tunnel has immense importance. It confirms not only the truth that King David existed, but the importance God placed on the city of Jerusalem from the very beginning. What made Jerusalem so important was because this is the single place God had chosen where His House was to be built.

2 Samuel 5:4-10

4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.

6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem unto the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: which spake unto David, saying, Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither: thinking, David cannot come in hither.

7 Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David.

8 And David said on that day, Whosoever getteth up to the gutter, and smiteth the Jebusites, and the lame and the blind, that are hated of David's soul, he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore they said, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.

9 So David dwelt in the fort, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.

10 And David went on, and grew great, and the Lord God of hosts was with him.

KJV

The mention of this gutter may well be the tunnel Dr. Mazer has discovered. The time period certainly fits. The fact that David built his palace right above this gutter also fits. Joab and his fellows were apparently able to sneak into the ancient Jebusite city of Salem through this gutter, and slay all the defenders. David then built his palace on Mount Zion which he called the city of David, and the city of Jerusalem he built round about. Mt. Zion is one of the fingers on the drop-off edge of Mt. Moriah where it drops into the Valley of Hinom. The finger right next to Zion is the finger on which the Temple Mount resides. David could view this empty finger daily from his balcony on Mt. Zion. At times of rest between campaigns when David was conquering the Promised Land he must have looked over at the Temple Mount contemplating the knowledge that God intended His House be built there next to David's. But, God made it clear to David it would not be him, but his son Solomon who would build the first Holy Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount, and anolther would come from the seed of David who's Kingdom will be forever.

2 Samuel 7:12-16

12 And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.

13 He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:

15 But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.

16 And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.

KJV

It would be Solomon who would be God's son. He would build the first Holy Temple. He would commit iniquity, and be chastened, but God promised David He would never depart from the Kingdom David was just then establishing. Another Son would come from David's seed who would have a never ending Kingdom. The Kingdom did not start with King Saul for God took that privilege from him. The promised Kingdom begins with King David! Folk's you know this other Son promised by God who's Kingdom would never end was none other then the LORD Jesus Christ.

Today the secular liberal Jewish politicians in conjunction with the world politicians are fixed on the blasphemous Roasd Map peace plan for the Holy Land, the city of Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount. They want to turn God's prophetic clock back to pre 1967 time when all of Judah, Samaria, and most of the city of Jerusalem including the Temple Mount were in Islamic hands. God is not going to let that happen even if it means bringing all the gentile nations together in the valley of Armageddon.

A third Holy Jewish Temple is the only direction God is gong to allow this miraculous Third Exodus of our generation to proceed. Understand that God is preparing the world for Ezekiel 38 & 39 which is the "Last Jihad!" God is preparing to wipe Islam off the map, and open the door for the building of the last Holy Jewish Temple to be established on the Temple Mount. Ezekiel's Temple (Ezekiel 40 - 48) which chronologically follows Ezekiel 38 & 39. A temple with a throne prepared for Christ!

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

 

Are you ready? Have you come to the only Savior of the world for the forgiveness of your sin? He is soon coming again to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount. On which side will you be?

 

1 Kings 5:3-5

3 Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the name of the Lord his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the Lord put them under the soles of his feet.

4 But now the Lord my God hath given me rest on every side, so that there is neither adversary nor evil occurrent.

5 And, behold, I purpose to build an house unto the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name.

KJV

1 Kings 6:1

6 And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the Lord .

KJV

1 Kings 6:12-14

12 Concerning this house which thou art in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:

13 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.

14 So Solomon built the house, and finished it.

KJV
