From Russia ... "Israel:  The Pariah of the International Community"

--Pravda  (Russia)       (Prophecies ... Israel, Jerusalem, (and Gaza) AFTER becoming a nation in 1948)     The Bible warns around the time of the coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon ("at the time of the end"... 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.     (Prophecies of Messiah's Return)  

From Russia:  Israel "Butchering" Peace Activists in International Waters ...

--Pravda  (Russia)      (Prophecies:  Russia, Iran, TURKEY, and allies will go to war ... and will attack and invade Israel)   It sure seems as though the Russian newspapers were well-prepared for this breaking story ...   In his book "New Lies For Old" ... PUBLISHED IN 1984 ... Soviet KGB officer Anatoliy Golitsyn (who defected to the West) disclosed the Russian KGB was instrumental in the rise of the anti-war "peace" movements ... during the 1960's Russia's KGB spy-master Andropov (who Senator Ted Kennedy corresponded with) helped spawn, fund, direct, and nurture the "Peace" movement in America and the West in order to turn the tide against their pending military defeat in Vietnam ... Andropov was later promoted to Secretary General of the Soviet Union for his successful penetration of American (and world) politics and media which successfully divided our nation and led to the Soviet victory in Vietnam.  Now, those same Marxist-Socialist ideologists who led the Russia-backed anti-war "Peace" efforts (which were strategically designed to cripple and destroy everything that made America strong ... including our Biblical Christian values and beliefs ... our military ... and our free-market economy) are now powerfully directing and forming world opinion and sympathies against both America and Israel.

In the Bible, God warns the destiny of the World is inseparable from Israel and Jerusalem.   The Bible says God would one day re-gather the children of Israel back into their land from among many nations around the world ... God warns He is not re-gathering the children of Israel into their Land because they deserve it, but because His Name and His Word are at stake (see Ezekiel 36:17-23) ... and because He loves them ... and they are His chosen people ... and they brought forth His Messiah.  The Bible warns that during this time "Gaza will be forsaken" ... and the Bible says all of the covenants, promises, curses, prophecies, and blessings God has made to the children and nation of Israel will be fulfilled.

     "Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things?

       Shall the Earth be made to give birth in one day?

       Or shall a nation be born at once?

       For as soon as Zion was in labor, she gave birth to her children."

       (Note: This prophecy was fulfilled in one day - on May 14, 1948)

       (Isaiah 66:8)     (A remarkable MATHEMATICAL Prophecy ... ISRAEL Back As A Nation in 1948!!!   (The "7X Judgment" against Israel)

     "He will set up a banner for the nations,

       and will assemble the outcasts of Israel,

       and gather together the dispersed of Judah

       from the four corners of the Earth."   (Not just Babylon ...)

       (Isaiah 11:12)

     "And you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel,

       and say, ‘O mountains of Israel,

       hear the Word of the LORD ...’"

     "But you, O mountains of Israel,

       you shall shoot forth your branches

       and yield your fruit to My people Israel,

       for they are about to come . . ."

     "For I will take you (the children of Israel) from among the nations,

       gather you out of all countries,

       and bring you into your own Land."

       (Ezekiel 36:1, 8, 24)

Now, search through history for a sovereign nation Israel . . .

   Year 500 BC?   "No."

   Year 300 BC?   "No."

   Year 100 BC?   "No."

   Year 200 AD?   "No."

   Year 500 AD?   "No."

   Year 1000 AD? "No."

   Year 1400 AD? "No."

   Year 1700 AD? "No."

   Year 1900 AD? "No."

   Year 1948 AD? "Yes!!!" ... There it is!!!  . . .  May 14, 1948!

How has the world reacted to such a profound fulfillment of Bible prophecy?  A miracle that can be documented by simply looking at a map and a Bible.  It has ignored it!  Just as God says most of the world will ignore the warnings of the coming Apocalypse.  Remember, God uses prophecy to prove that He is who He says He is, and to authenticate all the warnings and the promises found in the Bible.

Then, God warns Israel (and the world) will struggle for 'Peace' and 'Security' . . .

Beware of "Peace Plans" or "Roadmaps to Peace"!

     "Because, even because

       they have seduced My people (Israel),

       saying, "Peace",

       and there WAS NO PEACE ..."

       (Ezekiel 13:10)       (Prophecies ... Israel, Jerusalem, (and Gaza) AFTER becoming a nation in 1948) 

     "For they have healed the hurt

       of the daughter of My people slightly,

       saying, 'Peace, Peace;

       when there IS NO PEACE!"

       (Jeremiah 8:11)       (The coming Antichrist)    

     "For you yourselves know perfectly

       that the Day of the Lord  (the coming 'Apocalypse' and Armageddon)

       so comes as a thief in the night.

       For when they say, "Peace and safety!"

       then sudden destruction comes upon them,

       as labor pains upon a pregnant woman.

       And they shall not escape."

       (1 Thessalonians 5:2-3)      (A coming peace plan will be ENFORCED upon Israel ... and will change the world FOREVER!!!)

God warns around the time of Armageddon ALL nations will turn against Israel . . .

     "Behold, the Day of the LORD is coming,   (the coming "Apocalypse")

       And your spoil will be divided in your midst.  

       For I (God) will gather ALL the nations to battle

       against Jerusalem"

       (Zechariah 14:1-2)        (Prophecies: The coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon)

     "For behold, in those days and at that time,

       When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem,  (sometime after 1948)

       I will also gather ALL nations,

       And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat;  (outside Jerusalem)

       And I will enter into judgment with them there

       On account of My people, My heritage Israel,

       Whom they have scattered among the nations;

       They have also DIVIDED up My Land."  (Israel)

       (Joel 3:1-2)

     "And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs

       coming out of the mouth of the Dragon, (Satan)

       out of the mouth of the Beast, (the Antichrist)

       and out of the mouth of the False Prophet. (the religious "beast"... Revelation 13:11-12)

       For they are spirits of demons,

       performing signs,

       which go out to the kings of the Earth

       and of THE WHOLE WORLD,

       to gather them to the battle of that great Day of God Almighty.  

     "Behold, I am coming as a thief.

       Blessed is he who watches,

       and keeps his garments,

       lest he walk naked and they see his shame."

       And they (the spirits of demons)

       gathered them together (the armies of all the nations)

       to the place called in Hebrew, ARMAGEDDON."

       (Revelation 16:13-16)        (Prophecies: The coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon)

Israel is "Ground Zero" for the coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon.  The weapons will be used.  Much of the world will be destroyed.  Cities will disappear.  Armageddon means the "Hill of Megiddo."  Megiddo is part of the Plain of Esdraelon which is located in central Israel. Napoleon came through there and declared it to be the finest battlefield in the world.  The whole world will be drawn into this war over Israel and Jerusalem.  No nation will be spared.  The Bible warns there will be several deadly waves associated with this conflict, including:  An attack from the "south," an attack from the "north," a massive Chinese led invasion of the Middle East from the "east", which will then be "joined" as the armies of the Antichrist march out of Europe and around the world to the place called "Armageddon."  Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) will return to engage this final battle Himself.  He alone will destroy the enemies of Israel.  We don’t know the time between these wars/battles/events.   We do know that God has set aside seven years to complete His plan with Israel, and this Age.

From the apparent absence of America in prophecy, the U.S. will be "neutralized" sometime before this Middle-East conflict begins.  The United States will be unwilling or unable to defend Israel against her enemies.  For the Bible warns Israel must stand alone . . . with God!

Females On The Front Lines ... The New Obama (and Democrat Party) U.S. Military

--Fox News     (Bible prophecies describing 'The Generation of Armageddon' includes ..."Traitors")   (Obama and the Democrat Party's DEFENSE policies are based on Marxist-Socialist (Soviet) doctrines and strategies of weakening, crippling, and destroying America's national defense ... NOT strengthening it.  Simply step back and watch ... every Democrat Party (Marxist-Socialist ideology) defense policy now aids the Kremlin's (Marxist-Socialist ideology) desire to attack and destroy us ... and hinders the Pentagon's (Constitutional-freedom ideology) desire to defend and protect us. 

This is the reason Russia and China are now projecting themselves as the stronger, "masculine" (and "warrior-class") side of global power politics while they highlight and exploit the weaker "feminization" of American politics, leadership, and military ... including our new "rules of engagement" for fighting wars and forcing our commanders to mix women (and homosexuals) into our front-line combat forces and chains of command ... (which makes the Russian, Chinese, Islamic, and Latin American leaders, military commanders, and war-fighters breathe easier and jeer at this intentional weakening of American armed forces and combat cohesiveness.)

Yet, it fits the prophetic model outlined in the Bible in which America does not appear to be a dominant or sole "Super-Power" at the time of the coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon.

     "When you SEE these things happening,

       (Mark 13:29)        (Prophecies: The coming "Apocalypse" and Armageddon)

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 the ASSURANCE of Life in Heaven (and of having ALL of your sins 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) ...

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

     -  That He was buried ... 

     -  That He was raised (Resurrected) from the dead the third day ... He now lives ... waiting 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 outstretched arms and 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!!! 

AND many don't realize God’s loving offer (see below) contains both a promise and a warning ... 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);

     but he who does not believe (in Jesus Christ)

     IS condemned (to Hell) ALREADY"    (There will be no second chance for any who ignore or mock what God did for us on the Cross.)

     (John 3:16-18)       (Jesus greatly LOVED us to save us from Hell ... all God asks is that 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)    

Grace and Shalom
