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)

Thousands Strengthen Jewish Presence on Mount of Olives During Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) ... (VIdeo)

--Israel Nat'l News      

 

       "And in THAT Day   (the "Day of the Lord")

        His feet   (Jesus Christ ... Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew)

        will stand on the Mount of Olives,

        which faces Jerusalem on the east.

        And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,

        from east to west . . .

        It shall come to pass in that day

        that there will be no light;

        the lights will diminish.

        It shall be one day which is known to the LORD,

        neither day nor night.

        But at evening time it shall happen that it will be light."     (Awesome!)

        (Zechariah 14:4, 6, 7)     (Prophecies of Messiah's Return ...)

This is why it is now so difficult to find a church or synagogue who still teaches (and believes) the Bible  . . .

 

 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord GOD,
   That I will send a FAMINE on the land,
   NOT a famine of bread,
   NOR a thirst for water,
   But of hearing the words of the LORD.
   They shall wander from sea to sea,
   And from north to east;
   They shall run to and fro,

   seeking the Word of the LORD,
   But shall NOT find it."
 

   (Amos 8:11-12)    (The assurance of life in Heaven  ... it's NOT too late!!!)     (Finding Hope and Comfort in Times of Trouble ...)      (God's Promise ...)

 

This "famine" precedes a judgment upon a people and a world just as the receding water precedes a great and terrible tidal wave ...

The Bible describes the character of the generation who will drag the world down into the "Apocalypse" and Armageddon ...

 

   "But KNOW this,

     that IN THE LAST DAYS

     perilous (savage, fierce) times will come,

     for men   (mankind ... men and women)

     will be

     lovers of themselves,

     lovers of money,

     boasters,

     proud,      ("Puffed up" ... ""Nobody is going to tell me what to do!" ...  "I don't care what God says!")

     blasphemers   (mocking God and Jesus),

     disobedient to parents,   (will not respect authority)

     unthankful,

     unholy,

     unloving,

     unforgiving,

     slanderers,

     without self-control,

     violent (brutal),

     despisers of good, 

     traitors,

     headstrong,

     arrogant (haughty),

     lovers of pleasure       ("Feeding the lusts of their eyes and their flesh" ... "If it feels good ... do it!")

     rather than lovers of God,

     having a form of godliness    (professing a belief in some "god"... even going to a church or synagogue)

     but denying its power ... "  (God's power to comfort, heal, and save (from Hell) ... and judge and condemn)

In the ancient Jewish Scriptures the prophets warned Messiah would be the "Son of God" . . .

 

   "For unto us a Child is born,

     unto us a SON is given,

     and HIS Name will be called MIGHTY GOD,

     Everlasting Father,

     Prince of Peace."  

     (Isaiah 9:6)  

 

Note:  From the Old Testament (Tanakh) all the Jewish Rabbis BEFORE the time of Jesus (Yeshua) KNEW there was a "Son of God" ... who would be "begotten" . . .

 

     "I (God) have set MY King

       on My Holy Hill of Zion.  (Jerusalem)

       I (God) will declare the Decree:

       The LORD has said to Me,

       You are My SON

       this day I (God) have begotten You.

       Ask of Me,

       and I will give You the nations (Gentiles)

       for Your inheritance,

       and the ends of the Earth for Your possession ..."

       (Psalm 2:6-7)      (Prophecies of Messiah from the ancient Jewish Scriptures ...) 

 

     "Kiss the SON  (of God)

       lest He be angry,

       and you perish in the way, 

       when His wrath is kindled but a little.

       Blessed are all those who trust in Him."
       (Psalm 2:12)    
   (Prophecies of Messiah's Return ...)  

 

     "Who has established all the ends of the Earth?

       What is HIS Name,

       and what is His SON's Name,

       if you know?

       (Proverbs 30:4)      (God's Promise ...) 

 

Jewish Celebration at Joseph's Tomb In Israel ...

--Israel Nat'l News    (Prophecies of Messiah from the ancient Jewish Scriptures ...)      (Prophecies of Messiah's Return ...)  

 

Earlier:  Ancient Egyptian Coins Bearing the Name of "Joseph" (Son of Israel) Discovered In Egypt ...

--WND   (Joseph was sold by his brothers and later became a powerful leader in Egypt second only to Pharaoh ... one of the ancient Egyptian coins which was found even depicted a "cow" commemorating Pharaoh's dream which Joseph interpreted (see Genesis 41:1-44) ... even though he spent many years in prison after being falsely accused, Joseph forgave his brothers knowing that God used his troubles and afflictions for the good of others ...

 

   "But as for you,

     you meant evil against me;

     but God meant it for good,   

     in order to bring it about as it is this day,

     to save many people alive." 

     (Genesis 50:20)

 

This account in the Bible was also given to us as a "foreshadowing" of the coming Messiah ... who would also be turned over by His brethren (to be imprisoned and killed) because of envy and hate ... yet, He also knew that although they meant it for "evil"... God meant it for "good"... so many people (both Jew and Gentile) could be "saved" (into Heaven) by having their sins forgiven through faith and trusting in Him ... by sincerely trusting in His death as the "sacrificial Lamb of God" who died for our sins "once and for all"... and by sincerely trusting in His life because God powerfully resurrected Him from the dead ... and He now lives as our "King of Kings and Lord of Lords" lovingly interceding for us as our "High Priest" and "Savior" (who saves us from our sins and from the aloneness, darkness, and torment of Hell) while seated on His throne at the right hand of God ...

 

 "Jesus (Yeshua) said to him,

   "I AM

     THE Way,

     the Truth,

     and the Life.

     NO ONE comes to the Father      (into Heaven ... or in prayer)

     except through Me."

     (John 14:6)       (The assurance of life in Heaven  ... it's NOT too late!!!)     (Prophecies ... The coming "Rapture")

 

And remember, Joseph lived around 430 years before Moses led the children of Israel out of Egypt ... and here is physical evidence of Joseph.  The Bible is the most accurate and detailed history book (both past and future) ever written.  The Bible tells of us "things that were, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this (are yet future)"... Revelation 1:19.

The Worst Jerusalem Riots In Several Years ...

--DavidHocking.org      (Prophecies ... Israel and Jerusalem (and Gaza) AFTER becoming a nation in 1948)

 

   "Behold, I (God) will make Jerusalem

     a cup of trembling   (anger, fear)

     unto all the people (nations) round about . . ." 

     (Zechariah 12:2)

 

   "And in that Day    (The "Day of the Lord" ... "The Day of (God's) Wrath"... the coming "Apocalypse")

     I (God) will make Jerusalem

     a burdensome stone for ALL people" 

     (Zechariah12:3)         (Prophecies of the coming 'Apocalypse' and Armageddon)  

 

Don’t miss this . . . God warns HE is the One stirring things up in Israel and Jerusalem!!!

 

New Jewish Houses In Israel Have World Fuming ...

--DavidHocking.org      (Prophecies ... Israel and Jerusalem (and Gaza) AFTER becoming a nation in 1948)     The Bible warns "at the time of the end" (around the time of the coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon (also called the "Time of Jacob's (Israel's) Trouble"- Jeremiah 30:7) ALL NATIONS (including the US) will unite (united nations?) and turn against Israel (Zechariah 14:1-2 ... Joel 3:1-2 ... Revelation 16:13-16) ... but, it is heart-wrenching to see it happening ... it is like watching the water receding from the beach just before a great and terrible tidal wave strikes.  Remember ... Armageddon is in Israel.  Also remember ... through the return of Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) ... Israel WINS ... and will rule over the nations in peace.  

 

"Shabbat Shalom"... A Timely Bible (And Word) Study Ending This Intense Period Of The Jewish Calendar

--Rabbi Shlomo Riskin        (Prophecies of Messiah's Return ...)

 

     "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)  

 

     "When you SEE these things happening,

       know that it (the coming "Apocalypse") is NEAR  --  at the door!"

       (Mark 13:29)        (Prophecies: The coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon)      (Prophecies:  The coming "Rapture"... please don't be "left behind")  

 

Note:  Many people today do not know whether or not they (or their loved ones) will go to Heaven.  Many have not been adequately (or honestly) taught what the Bible actually says and teaches ...

 

Many also don't realize God’s loving offer (see below) contains both a "BLESSING” and a "CURSE”. . .

 

   "For God so loved the world

     that He GAVE His only begotten Son,

     that whoever BELIEVES (trusts) in Him      (to trust in Jesus alone to save us from our sins and from Hell)

     should NOT perish (in Hell)

     but have everlasting life (in Heaven).

     For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world,

     but that the world through Him might be saved (into Heaven).

     He who believes in Him is not condemned (to Hell ... the "second" death);

     but he who does NOT believe (in Jesus Christ)

     IS condemned (to Hell) ALREADY"     (The consequence of sin without Christ Jesus ... Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew.)

     (John 3:16-18)   (Jesus greatly LOVED us to save us from Hell ... all God asks is we love Him for all He has done for us.)

 

   "For by GRACE you have been saved (from your sins and from Hell)

     through FAITH (in Jesus Christ),

     and that not of yourselves;

     it is the GIFT of God,   ("Grace" is getting something we don’t deserve…we can't earn this gift of life in Heaven)

     NOT of works,   (we cannot enter Heaven through any “good deeds” we have done ... or think we have done.)

     lest ANYONE should boast."   (We are told it’s a gift from God … we just have to thankfully (and lovingly) receive it.)

     (Ephesians 2:8)    

 

For the ASSURANCE of Life in Heaven (and of having ALL of your sin and guilt completely removed) . . . A.C.T. NOW!!! 

 

-  Acknowledge you are a sinner ... and have sinned against God's Law

-  Confess your sins to God

-  Trust (believe) completely in Jesus Christ  (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) ...

     -  He (lovingly and willingly) died for all of your sins on the Cross ... and His innocent blood washes away ALL our sins

     -  He was buried ... 

     -  He was raised (Resurrected) from the dead the third day ... and now waits to see if you are "with" Him or "against" Him

-  Turn back to God ... and turn away from sinful activities ("repent") ... He will welcome you with tears of joy.

 

If you do these things … sincerely and in faith … the Bible promises you can have the complete assurance of eternal life in Heaven.  The Bible tells us Jesus (Yeshua) did all the work for you when He bore all of your sins and died on the Cross ... and was buried ... and was raised (resurrected) from the dead (as "firstfruits" of the coming Resurrection) through the awesome power of God.  The Bible says you can’t add anything to it!!!  When you believe and trust in (and love) Jesus Christ as your "Savior" (who lovingly saves you from your sins and from Hell) ... and then turn away from your sinful ways and turn back to God ("repent"), you can have the complete peace and assurance in your heart that when you die, you will enter into His Kingdom of Heaven ... forever and ever it’s God’s Promise!!! 

 

The only thing God asks a NON-believer to do is to "believe"... Jesus (God) did ALL the work ... life in Heaven is OFFERED as a GIFT!!! 

 

 

Grace and Shalom
