world news + Bible Prophecy
BIBLE PROPHECY allows both the diligent and the skeptical to test God's Word. The Bible is God's Word and He proves it by including many, many detailed prophecies of events which would happen in the future. Bible prophecy is also God's way of warning ALL Mankind (whom He created) of the great danger which now lies ahead. The Bible warns a single generation will see the fulfillment of many extraordinary prophecies, beginning with Israel gathered back into her Land as a nation ... and ending with the Rapture, Antichrist, Armageddon, and Messiah's Return. We believe the generation the Bible warns about is alive today. We expect you to challenge this statement. To do so, simply learn what the Bible says, study the news, study your history books (to see if these things have or even could have happened before), pray for wisdom, and then decide. Many prophecies are given so we will return to God and draw close to Him before it's too late ... for God promises eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven for ALL who will receive it through His promised Messiah - Jesus Christ in English ... Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew - called "Savior" because as "the Lamb of God" He willingly bore all of our sins (and our guilt) while He suffered and died for us on that terrible Cross as God lovingly gave His Son to bear the punishment for all our sins to save us from the utter darkness, aloneness, and torment of Hell.. He now "stands at the door and knocks" and your eternal destiny is determined by your decision to "receive" Him or "reject" Him.

"Come unto Me,
all you who labor
and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest.
Take My yoke upon you
and learn of Me . . .
for I am meek and lowly in heart,
and you shall find rest
unto your souls.
For My yoke is easy
and My burden is light."

Russian Nuclear-Armed Bombers Circle Guam ... US F-15 Fighter Jets Scrambled

In Essence North Korea Tested An Iranian Nuclear Bomb ...
--World Tribune (Prophecies ... WARS and rumors of war) (Prophecies: RUSSIA and allies will go to war ... and will attack and invade Israel) RUSSIA and China control NORTH KOREA and IRAN'S every move ... and Russia and China help North Korea and Iran prepare and deploy every "new" weapon design. Stalin called Russian-bred allies such as Iran and North Korea "icebreakers" directed by Russia to weaken and distract the enemy ... another good term for Iran and North Korea would be well-trained and vicious "attack dogs" straining on the end of Russia (and China's) leash.
Shock In Jerusalem ... US Plan For UN To Endorse Khamenei’s Nuclear Bomb "Fatwa"
--Debkafile (Prophecies: IRAN, RUSSIA and allies will go to war ... and will attack and invade Israel) The time draws near ...
THIS war will be unlike any other war in history ... this war will unleash a series of irreversible events which will change the world forever. God has set aside two whole chapters in the Bible to warn Mankind of this coming war ... God warns Iran (Persia), with Russia (Magog), and a coalition of allies (including Turkey, Libya, and Sudan) will attack and will invade Israel. In Ezekiel 38-39 the Bible warns this coming war between Iran (Persia) and Israel will take place sometime AFTER Israel has been re-gathered into Her land as a nation (which was fulfilled on May 14, 1948) ... this prophetic war has never yet taken place ... the only time in history Persia (Iran) has ever gone to war against Israel was to help Israel throw off the yoke of the Byzantine Empire around 614 AD.
THE BIBLE warns the US will NOT defend Israel. According to the Bible, Israel must stand alone ... with God. For when this coming war does finally start, the United States will be unwilling (or unable) to help Israel defend herself. Even though the Bible warns the invading armies will be ultimately destroyed by God, it will be a devastating war for both Israel and the whole world. Bible scholars are divided as to whether this coming war is part of the prophetic battle of Armageddon or will just precede Armageddon in order to prepare a path for the Antichrist (a coming World Leader who will enforce a Peace Plan ("covenant") upon Israel) which will trigger the final prophetic 7-Year period of time which God has set aside for Israel and the World which is sometimes called the "Apocalypse" ...
ALL PEOPLE of the World should be sitting on the edge of their seats with white knuckles watching this terrible prophecy slowly start to unfold ... while those who call themselves Christians (followers ... both Jew and Gentile ... of Jesus (Yeshua), the promised Messiah) are told to "examine" themselves in the Word and in their faith to insure they are not just 'almost' Christians (Matthew 7:21-23) who are "lukewarm" in their faith in Jesus (Yeshua) and God's Word (Revelation 3:14-16) ... for Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah warns all to, "Watch, therefore, and pray always (not just sometimes), that you will be counted worthy (through His worthiness) to escape all these things (the terrible events of the coming 'Apocalypse') that will come to pass" ... (Luke 21:36) ... for the Bible promises believing Christians (faithful and sincere believers in Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) who are alive at that time and have endured in their faith in God's Word are not "appointed" to this coming time of "God's wrath" that will be "poured out" upon the whole world ... (1 Thessalonians 1:10 ... 1 Thessalonians 5:9-11) (Prophecies: The coming "RAPTURE"... Jew and Gentile ... Please don't be "left behind")

BIBLICAL love is NOT a "feeling"... it is an ACTION.
Biblical love is based on how we ACT ... and how we TREAT others..
"But when the Pharisees heard that He (Jesus) had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together.
Then one of them, a lawyer,
asked Him a question, testing Him,
and saying,
'Teacher, which is the great Commandment in the Law?"
Jesus (Yeshua) said to him,
'You shall LOVE the LORD your God with all your heart,
with all your soul, and with all your mind.'
This is the first and Great Commandment. (Do you love God and Jesus with all your heart, soul, and mind?)
And the second is like it:
'You shall LOVE your neighbor as yourself.' (Do you treat others and strangers the way you would like to be treated?)
On these two Commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."
(Matthew 22:34-40)
Biblical love is NOT a "feeling"... it is an ACTION.
Biblical love is based on how we ACT ... and how we TREAT others..
"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love,
I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge,
and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body to be burned,
but have not love,
it profits me nothing.
Love is patient ("suffers long"... patience with others and patience in afflictions)
and (love) is kind;
love does not envy;
love does not parade itself,
(love) is not puffed up;
(love) does not behave rudely,
(love) does not seek its own,
(love) is not provoked,
(love) thinks no evil;
(love) does not rejoice in sinful activities (iniquity),
but (love) rejoices in the truth;
(love) bears all things,
(love) believes all things,
(love) hopes all things,
(love) endures all things.
Love never fails."
(1 Corinthians 13:1-8) (This Biblical definition of "love" is also a perfect description of our Lord Jesus Christ ...)
God INSPECTS our lives and the "Fruit" we are bearing to see if we ARE His ...
"But the fruit of the Spirit is LOVE,
joy,
peace,
patience (longsuffering),
kindness,
goodness,
faithfulness,
gentleness,
self-control.
Against such there is no Law.
And those who are Messiah's (Christ's) have crucified the flesh with its lusts and desires
If we live in the Spirit,
let us also walk in the Spirit.
Let us NOT become conceited,
provoking one another,
envying one another."
(Galatians 5:22-26)

The Bible says when we turn away ("repent") from our sinful ways and place our trust and love in Messiah (Christ) we are then "indwelt" by the Holy Spirit ... and the proof we are sincere in our faith is we should start seeing a change in our lives and attitudes and start acting differently AFTER we receive Jesus (Yeshua) as our Lord and Savior than we did BEFORE we received Jesus as our Lord and Savior (who bore all our sin and guilt upon Himself to SAVE us from Hell) ...
We are told in the Bible that God HATES "puffed-up" PRIDE and those who think "highly" of themselves ...
"Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit,
but in lowliness of mind
let each esteem OTHERS better than himself."
(Philippians 2:3) (God's Promise ...)
Biblical Love is not a "suggestion" ... we are COMMANDED to love others ... which means to "love" will take EFFORT.
"We love Him
because He first loved us." (He proved and demonstrated His love for us on the Cross ...)
(1 John 4:19) (God's Commandment ... BIBLICAL "LOVE"... Christian Love ... What IS it?)
"For you WERE once darkness,
but NOW you are light in the Lord.
WALK as children of Light
(for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),
finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness,
but rather expose them."
(Ephesians 5:8-11)

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 ...
"For God so loved the world that He GAVE
His ONLY begotten SON,
that WHOEVER believes in Him
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, (for the Bible warns we are already condemned)
but that the world through Him might be saved (from Hell).
He who believes (trusts) in Him (and loves Him as He loved us ...)
is NOT condemned (to Hell);
but he who does NOT believe
IS condemned (to Hell) ALREADY" (The "Gift" is life in Heaven ... He is the only One who can "Save" us)
(John 3:16) (God's Promise ...)
"For by GRACE you have been saved (from your sins and from Hell)
through FAITH, (In Jesus Christ ... Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew)
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 ... we go to Hell for rejecting God's Gift and Son.)
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) (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!) (Prophecies ... The coming "Rapture")
Please remember . . .
The Kingdom of Heaven is available to every man, woman, boy, and girl in this world. It is freely offered to any and all who will receive it. Simply learn of Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew), invite Him into your life as Lord, believe He died on the Cross for all of your sins and rose from the grave (proving there is life in Heaven). Learn of Him and believe in Him ... for He was the only one who has ever loved you enough to substitute Himself for you on the Cross (which represents Hell). He shed His blood, suffered, and died on the Cross as the "Passover Lamb of God" to save you from the utter torment and darkness of Hell ... if you will accept it.
That is why Jesus (Yeshua) is called "Savior." He now lovingly and graciously offers you life in His Kingdom of Heaven ... and it is a "take it or leave it" proposition. If you sincerely admit you have sinned (which means you will need a Savior) and sincerely believe Jesus lovingly paid (and cancelled) the debt for all of your sins on the Cross, and honestly try to stop doing those things God says are wrong, you will go to Heaven ... It's God's Promise!!!
The only unpardonable sin is to reject God's love and His free offer of life in Heaven by rejecting God's Son, Jesus Christ, the Messiah, who stepped forth from Heaven ... not to condemn the sinner, but to save the sinner (from Hell) and who willingly and lovingly shed His blood on the Cross so we can be washed clean of all of our sins. The Bible warns there will be no peace in our hearts until we make peace with God through His Son, the Messiah, Lord Jesus Christ . . .
"Therefore being justified by FAITH, ("justified" means 'just as if all our sins had never happened')
we have peace with God (this verse comforts like a soft pillow for a weary head ...)
through our Lord Jesus Christ"
(Romans 5:1)
And with open arms and with tears of joy He will welcome any and all into the Kingdom of Heaven who willingly come to Him through the One He sent forth to save us sinners ... Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) ...'LORD OF LORDS AND KING OF KINGS"... our Savior!!!
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) suffered and 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 is now waiting for His Word spread around the World)
- Turn back to God ... and turn away from sinful activities ("repent") ... He will welcome you with tears of joy.
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
