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)

Jerusalem Homosexual "Gay Pride" Parade Ends Peacefully ...

--Jerusalem Post      (God's Law:  Homosexuality and Abortion)       (Prophecies:  A generation of evil will rise ... the generation of Armageddon) 

 

The Bible warns Sodom and Gomorrah were given as an "example" and warning for coming generations  ...

 

 "As Sodom and Gomorrah,

   and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, ( 5 cities were destroyed including Sodom and Gomorrah)

   having given themselves over to sexual immorality

   and gone after strange flesh, (homosexuality)

   are set forth as an example,

   suffering the vengeance of eternal fire."

   (Jude 1:7)      (The assurance of life in Heaven  ... it's NOT too late!!!)      (Prophecies ... The coming "Rapture") 

 

 "And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes,

   condemned them (Sodom and Gomorrah) to destruction,

   making them an example

   to those who afterward would live ungodly ..."

   (2 Peter 2:6)        (Prophecies: The 'Apocalypse' and Armageddon ... UPDATED) 

 

A thousand years after Sodom and Gomorrah were judged and destroyed, God explains why (and remember, to God "a thousand years is as one day"... Psalm 90:4 ... 2 Peter 3:8).   God warns open homosexuality is a visual symptom of a people who are filled with "arrogance" and  "pride" ("Nobody ... not even God ... is going to tell me what to do!")   ...

 

  "This was the sin (iniquity) of your sister Sodom:

   She (Sodom) and her daughter (Gomorrah) had PRIDE,   ("NOBODY (including God) is going to tell ME what to do!")

   fullness of food,

   and abundance of idleness;   (sounds a lot like our generation)

   neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy,

   and they were arrogant (haughty) ...   ("I don't care what God says in the Bible!"... "I'll do what feels right to me!")

   Therefore, I (God) took them away as I saw fit."     (He destroyed ('cleansed') them with fire ...)

   (Ezekiel 16:49)   

 

In these verses, God links open homosexuality in a society to sinful 'pride' and 'arrogance'... the sin of Satan.  Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed ('cleansed' with fire) because they were filled with pride and arrogance while flaunting their sexual immorality and their homosexuality openly before God.   They mocked God and they had no fear of God.   They were also found guilty of having 'fullness of food' without acknowledging God who provided it, and having 'an abundance of idleness' in the land (basically they ate, drank, watched TV, and allowed their 'Gay Pride' parades... the people had become so de-sensitized to sin they even stood by as their homosexuals tried to 'gang-rape' the two men/angels God sent to warn Lot ... while their worthless priests, rabbis, ministers, and 'reverends' were assuring the people in the pews that God's Word and God's Law didn't really mean what it said and didn't really apply to them and they could continue to do whatever felt good or right "in their own eyes," even when in direct opposition to God's Law.  All of this reflected their lack of belief and their arrogant and rebellious attitudes toward God and His Word.   Sin meant nothing to them and there was no fear of God.  Would these charges convict any people or nation(s) you know today?   God's judgment against Sodom was was given as a warning!   The Bible warns the coming "Apocalypse" will be like the judgment against Sodom (only worse), and this time it will come against the whole world!    Our time is short.   God is pleading with us to stop (repent of) our sinful ways and return to Him before it's too late.  With open arms and with tears of joy He will welcome any and all who willingly return to Him through the One He sent forth to save us sinners ... Jesus (Yeshua) ... the promised Messiah.   And, as with Lot (and as with Enoch before the Flood when God "cleansed" the Earth with water), God promises to remove ('Rapture') those who will sincerely return to Him in faith before the coming 'Apocalypse,' which the Bible also calls 'the Great Tribulation,' 'the Time of Jacob's (Israel's) Trouble,' 'the Day of the Lord,' and the 'Day of God's Wrath'  ...

   "This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, 

     that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.  

     If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness,

     we lie and do not practice the truth.  

     But, if we walk in the light as He is in the light,

     we have fellowship with one another,

     and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from ALL sin.  

     If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves,

     and the truth is not in us.  

     If we confess our sins,

     He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins

     and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.  

     If we say that we have not sinned,

     we make Him a liar,

     and His word is not in us."

Turkey Losing Interest In the European Union (EU) ... Now Following Pro-Arab Islamic Foreign Policy

--WND       (Prophecies ... The coming "Rapture")        (Prophecies ... Russia, Iran, TURKEY, and allies will attack and invade Israel)      Many good Bible teachers have waited many years to read a headline such as this ... a headline showing TURKEY turning away from Israel (and NATO ... for Turkey and Israel have had strong military cooperation for many years) ... while turning towards the Russia-Iran Islamic camp ... for many, this is the last piece of the puzzle needed in place before this terrible war can "blossom" into its Biblical proportions  ... and what makes it even more important is that many (not all) good Bible teachers have taught the "Rapture" (when the Lord Jesus (Yeshua) will return "as a thief in the night" to suddenly remove all those who are waiting in faith to protect them from the coming Day of God's Wrath) will take place sometime BEFORE this coming war against Israel is either launched or culminated.

   "There is therefore now no condemnation (Hell) to those who are in Christ (Messiah) Jesus,

     who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.  

     For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the Law of sin and death.  

     For what the Law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh,

     God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin:

     He condemned sin in the flesh,  

     that the righteous requirement of the Law might be fulfilled

     in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.  

     For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh,

     but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit."

   "What then shall we say to these things?

     If God is for us, who can be against us?  

     He who did not spare His own Son,

     but delivered Him up for us all,

     how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?  

     Who shall bring a charge against God's elect?

     It is God who justifies.  

     Who is he who condemns?

     It is Christ (Messiah) who died,

     and furthermore is also risen,

     who is even at the right hand of God,

     who also makes intercession for us.  

     Who shall separate us from the love of Christ (Messiah)?

     Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution,

     or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?  

     As it is written: "For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."  

     Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.  

     For I am persuaded that neither death nor life,

     nor angels nor principalities nor powers,

     nor things present nor things to come,  

     nor height nor depth,

     nor any other created thing,

     shall be able to separate us from the love of God

     which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
