This weekly news update is being sent because the Bible tells us to know the prophecies and to "watch" for their fulfillment (which can only be done by learning and knowing what is going on around the world) ... yet, many churches and synagogues today ignore and deny Bible prophecy (which in itself is a major fulfillment of Bible prophecy) ...
Now, a short Bible prophecy lesson to help show how close we are ...
+ Israel back in the Land as a nation (this started the clock ticking ...)
+ Iran and allies threatening war against Israel
+ Russia rising ... and acting as a 'guard' for Iran
+ China armed with weapons capable of quickly destroying 1/3 of mankind
+ Nations of the ancient Roman Empire (Europe?) reuniting and rising in power
+ Teachings of false 'Prophets' leading many
+ A Generation 'morally corrupt' and 'filled with violence'
(The Bible uses the word 'corrupt' - like smelly, rotting meat)
+ 'The falling away'... churches and synagogues no longer teaching or enduring sound doctrine
+ Israel and Jerusalem . . . trouble, troubles, and more trouble
+ All nations turning against nation Israel . . .
= The Generation of the ... Rapture ... the 'Apocalypse' ... Armageddon ... and Messiah's Return.
For the first time in history this prophetic 'equation' is nearly complete . . . and all in this generation!!!
That Tiny Red 'Dot' is Israel ... God warns, 'Israel is His'...'Allah' and his vast armies (green) keep trying to prove Him wrong
The 'God of Israel' and the Bible . . . or . . . 'Allah' and the Koran . . . The Bible Warns One Is True . . . and One Is False
The coming Battle of Armageddon ('Hill of Megiddo') . . . Armageddon lies right in the center of that tiny Red 'Dot'
"I (God) will bless those who bless you (Israel) and will curse those who curse you". . . (Genesis 12:3)

Note to Readers: When Jesus (Yeshua) gave His prophetic "briefing" to 4 of His disciples on the Mount of Olives (often called the Olivet Discourse ... "there will be wars and rumors of wars ... earthquakes ... deadly diseases spreading ... "ethnic will rise against ethnic", etc) He warned the prophetic "warning signs" which would be given to Israel and to Mankind before the coming "Apocalypse" would come like "birth pangs" (sometimes translated beginning of "sorrows" even though the literal translation is "birth pangs"). What Jesus-Yeshua, the Messiah (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) is telling us is the prophetic warning signs will come as birth "pangs" (pains) ... with "lulls" (relative calms) between them ... and will continue to grow in size (amplitude) and frequency as we near "the Day of the Lord" (the "Apocalypse" and Armageddon, which will pretty much be the final "birth pang" before the "birth" of the Messiah's Kingdom on Earth which will follow.) For those who take the Bible seriously and study God's Warnings and God's Plan as laid out in the Bible, we have now seen some major "birth pangs" over the past few years ... and it seems (and I could certainly be wrong) as though we have entered into a short "lull" which will precede another major prophetic birth "pang." It is hard to tell whether this relative "lull" will last just hours, days, weeks, or months ... but the next prophetic "birth pang" or pain will surely follow ... just watch the news. If you don't take the Scriptures seriously, please reconsider and take the time to study the prophetic Plan which God lays out in the Bible (from "the Beginning" (Genesis 1:1) to "the End" (Revelation 21:1) ... laying out in detail "The History of the World (and Israel) ... written in advance!!!") ... and also reconsider your relationship with the Messiah of Israel who didn't come to harm us, but to help us and to save us from our sins and from Hell ("to the Jew first and then the Greek" (gentiles ... non-Jews). And, as mentioned before, don't believe what I say, but "search the Scriptures to see if these things are true." The prophecies found in the blue boxes above and the blue links below can give you a small overview of Bible prophecies. Also see ...

Old Testament) hundreds of years before He was born) (The most important Bible prophecies ... Heaven or Hell ... the final separation)
And now . . .
"Grace to you
and peace from Him (Jesus Christ, the Messiah ... Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew)
who is and who was
and who is to come". . .
(Revelation 1:4) (We are told He is the "I Am" who placed His Spirit inside the form of Man and dwelt among us ...)

"Do not keep silent, O God!
Do not hold Your peace,
and do not be still, O God!
For behold, Your enemies make a tumult;
And those who hate You have lifted up their head.
They have taken crafty counsel against Your people (Israel),
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
They have said,
'Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.'"

"For I am God, and there is no other.
I am God, and there is none like Me,
Declaring the end from the beginning,
and from ancient times
things that are not yet done . . ."
(Isaiah 46:9-10)
Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) commands all those who will follow Him to "watch" and be ready ...
"Take heed (to the prophetic warnings) ...
watch (what is going on) ...
and pray (see below);
for you do not know when the time is (the coming Rapture).
It is like a man going to a far country,
who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work,
and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.
Watch therefore,
for you do not know when the master of the house is coming --
in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning --
lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping.
And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!"
(Mark 13:33-37)
"When you see these things,
know that it is near - -
at the door!"
(Mark 13:29)
"Before the decree is issued,
before the day passes like chaff,
before the LORD'S fierce anger comes upon you,
before the day of the LORD'S
anger comes upon you!
Seek the LORD,
all you meek of the Earth,
who have upheld His justice.
Seek righteousness,
seek humility.
It may be that you
will be hidden
in the day of the LORD'S anger."
(Zeph 2:2-3)
"Watch therefore,
and pray always
that you may be
counted worthy to escape
all these things
that will come to pass . . ." (The Bible promises all who wait in faith are not "appointed" to the coming time of "Tribulation")
(Luke 21:36)
"When you see these things happening,
know that it (the 'Apocalypse') is near -- at the doors!
Assuredly, I say to you,
this generation will by no means pass away
till all these things take place."
(Mark 13:29)
... for He promises to protect and shelter all those who are found waiting in faith from the coming 'time of trouble.'
