A Sad State of Afairs

http://platform.twitter.com/widgets/hub.1326407570.html

On a day when President Barack Obama celebrates the abortion deaths of 54 million children, Israel demonstrates its complete distrust of America’s leader, for the second time in two weeks.

The first exhibit was Israel’s cancellation of a joint Israeli/American anti-missile exercise just last week. Israel’s reason for cancelling the huge drill that would have prepared Israel for a combined missile attack perpetrated by its surrounding enemies?  The Israelis do not believe Obama is serious about preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons that will end up being used against them.

Now, Arutz Sheva is reporting tha, on his first official visit to Israel, new Joint Chiefs of Staff leader, Martin Dempsey was told this weekend that Israel would give President Barack Obama no more than 12 hours notice if and when it attacks Iran. The London Times said its sources explained that Israel fears that President Obama would try to torpedo an Israeli attack if more notice were given because he is concerned that Iran will respond by blocking the Strait of Hormuz, sparking a rise in the price of oil that could cripple Western economies. If the attack were to occur in the next 10 months, it would put President Obama in a tight spot on the eve of his bid for re-election.

For many of us who have been watching the President’s Middle East policies, this reaction by Israel is no surprise. The President has openly taken the side of the Palestinians against the existence of Israel. He has openly belittled the Israeli Prime Minister. He has refused to involve himself in a grassroots, democratic uprising against the radical tyrants in Iran. He has whole-heartedly supported the expansion of the Muslim Brotherhood as they orchestrated the take over of the Egyptian government, the Lebanese government, and now the ongoing attempt to possess Syria as its own.

The fact that the president is celebrating the Roe v. Wade decision that has killed 54 million children in America should make us stand and shout for new leadership. Trashing Israel will either accomplish that task, or bring about God’s curse on America.

It is time to wake up, if you haven’t already.  Pass this blog along.

Ezekiel 38 Coalition Solidifies

http://platform.twitter.com/widgets/hub.1326407570.html

As two American carrier strife forces move toward the Straights of Hormuz, the world seems to be chosing sides. Nations that had backed President Obama’s weak sanctions against Iran are abandoning the Israel/America ship and beginning to side with Iran. Sounds a bit like Ron Paul….whiney voice and all.

We have been witnessing the formation of the Ezekiel 38 and 39 coalition for several years, but the coalition is solidifying rapidly. Will a strike on Iran lead to one of the greatest fulfillments of prophecy in history?  I think so, but not immediately.

The following article reinforces the importance of keeping our eyes open to events in the Middle East, Bible prophecy, and hard work for the kingdom of Christ.

Russia: Attack on Tehran is Attack on Moscow

Russia has given Iran its bear hug and warns Israel and the West that an attack on Tehran would be considered an attack on Moscow.

By Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu

Russia has given Iran its bear hug and warns Israel and the West that an attack on Tehran would be considered an attack on Moscow. The threat heightens the prospect of World War III in the event of a military strike on Iran.

“Iran is our neighbor,” Russia’s outgoing ambassador to NATO, Dmitry Rogozin, told reporters in Brussels. “And if Iran is involved in any military action, it’s a direct threat to our security.”

Kremlin Security Council head Nikolai Patrushev accused Israel of provoking the United States towards war against Iran, the Russian Interfax news agency reported Friday. “But at the same time, we believe that any country has the right to have what it needs to feel comfortable, including Iran,” he added.

Rogozin warned on Friday that more attacks on Iran could cause “a scorching Arab Summer.”

Russia also has come to the defense of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, warning Western nations not to intervene in Syria with military forces. Russia is a major arms supplier to Syria and has a heavy investment in Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Japan also is drifting towards Iran, backtracking from its promise last week to back American sanctions aimed at persuading Iran to halt its unsupervised nuclear development.

Last week’s assassination of an Iranian nuclear scientist has aroused more “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” protest rallies in Iran, where the scientist was buried on Friday.

Iranian state radio said the 32-year-old scientist was involved with enriched uranium, a key ingredient for a nuclear weapon.

 

Is the World Waking Up?

This just in from Vienna, Austria.

VIENNA (AP) — Diplomats on Monday confirmed a report that Iran has begun uranium enrichment at an underground bunker and said the news is particularly worrying because the site is being used to make material that can be upgraded more quickly for use in a nuclear weapon than the nation’s main enriched stockpile.

The diplomats said that centrifuges at the Fordo site near Iran’s holy city of Qom are churning out uranium enriched to 20 percent. That level is higher than the 3.5 percent being made at Iran’s main enrichment plant and can be turned into fissile warhead material faster and with less work.

The move was expected, with Tehran announcing months ago that it would use the Fordo facility for 20 percent production. Iran began to further enrich a small part of its uranium stockpile to nearly 20 percent as of February 2010 at a less-protected experimental site, saying it needs the higher grade material to produce fuel for a Tehran reactor that makes medical radioisotopes for cancer patients.

But with the time and effort reduced between making weapons-grade uranium from the 20-percent level, the start of the Fordo operation increases international fears that Iran is determined to move closer to the ability to make nuclear warheads — despite insistence by the Islamic Republic that it is enriching only to make reactor fuel. Its dismissal of findings by the International Atomic Energy Agency of secret experimental work on a nuclear weapons program also worries the international community.

All signs are pointing to WAR…yes, another war. Israel no longer has the luxury of waiting for Barack Obama to do something about the Iranian threat. However, giving Obama some modicum of credit, a massive US/Israeli military excersize is now underway in the Mediterranean Sea, with warplanes from both countries participating in refueling, attack, and long distance sortee training. Also, some 2,500 American missile and radar technicians have been deployed to Israel, indicating preparations are being made to protect the tiny country from the inevitable counter-strike against the Jews should either Israel or the US bomb Iranian nulcear targets.

This is a “stay-tuned” moment. The paradox is found in the fact that Barack Obama and Benjamin Netanyahu are still at lengthening odds. They do not like, or respect one another. Obama has taken up the Palestinian cause without reason, and has thrown Israel under the bus on mulitple occasions.

So, what is this seemingly new stance by Obama to actually defend Israel?  Pardon me, but the only motive I can see is the coming 2012 elections. Obama desperately needs the American Jewish vote to win, and that vote has been steadily eroding. Is the President suddenly an Israeli backer, or is this a desperate attempt to stay in power?  You decide……by voting.

However, all things remain in God’s hand and his design. Israel, according to Bible prophecy, will soon endure two waves of attacks. The first may come as a result of a strike against Iran, but will be perpetrated by the countries that now border Israel. Oddly enough, most of those countries are now in the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood, the father organization of Islamic radicals such as Hamas and Hezbollah. (Read earlier blogs to see the Biblical prophecies concerning this Inner Ring War.)

The second wave will be catastrophic, and will include Russia, Turkey, Iran, Libya, and the peoples of the Horn of Africa. Ezekiel 38 and 39 is the prophetic site. Read it.

All told, it seems like 2011 was just the warm-up to what is coming, and could come in the next few weeks and months.

Oh, things are fixin to get exciting!  Will the world wake up in time?   Probably not.

2012 The End of the World?

As the final few days of 2011 wind down into history, the coming year is on the minds of many.

Much has been made of the Mayan calendar and its supposed “reset of history.” Some have interpreted this to mean an apocalypse will happen in December of the coming year. Movies have been made to portray the end of the world. But, will that actually happen in 2012?

This year has been the most cataclysmic in history. Global insurer Munich Re says natural catastrophe losses for the first nine months of 2011 totalled $310 billion, a record, with 80 percent of all economic losses occurring in the Asia-Pacific region. Since 1980, weather-related disasters globally have more than tripled.

The United States set a record with 12 separate billion-dollar weather disasters in 2011, with an aggregate damage total of approximately $52 billion, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said this month.

We’ve seen earthquakes that moved islands, tsunamis that washed away thousands of people, storms that have shut down countries, floods, droughts, fires, tornadoes, and more..like wars and rumors of wars about to begin. And then there is the powder keg of the Middle East and the survival of Israel. The world is ripe with apprehension at what 2012 will bring. Will it be worse? Will it all end? FEAR!   And then we watched the Rev. Harold Camping fall flat on two predictions of the end of the world, and our culture laughed itself back into complacency with all things “Christian.”

Sadly, many believers have fallen into the mentality of fear. The natural result of living in fear is to go into a shell, or a hole, or a hold-the-fort lifestyle that does absolutely no good for the Kingdom.

So, will the world end in 2012?      NO… again, NO NO NO.

Biblically speaking, the world will not end for at least another millenia (thousand years..plus a few). But, the odds are conditions in the world WILL get worse. The world economy is teetering on the edge of an abyss. Hunger and poverty are as rampant as ever. Jesus told us all in Matthew 24 that earthquakes, disasters, disease, and famine would increase like birth pangs until the Kingdom is revealed. In other words, although we do not know what 2012 will hold, it could be worse than 2011.

What should we do about it as believers in the Lord Jesus Messiah?

1. See everything as an opportunity to share the truth. People are afraid and asking questions. Give them the answer….not so much theologically, but experientially. Who is Jesus? What did he come to do? How has he changed you? How can he change the seeker?

2. Find ways to be compassionate. This will demonstrate the compassion of Jesus. We are supposed to look like him in character and action. 2012 is a good time to really do that full-time.

3. Pray for a new awakening in America.  Pray for the Church to wake up.  Pray for Muslims to find Jesus. Pray for cultures to receive a new witness. Pray for an end-times harvest of souls.

4. Be generous with money.  Yes, the economy is heading toward disaster. Investments in stocks, retirement, and even gold will be worthless when everything crashes….and it will crash eventually. But, investment in the Kingdom that comes by way of faithfulness and generosity with your money will pay huge dividends when the world goes bankrupt. You cannot outgive God, but you can hinder what you reap by sowing stingily.

Do these things, and nothing will stand in the way of your best year ever for the Lord and his Kingdom. And isn’t that what we are to be about?

On a PERSONAL NOTE:  I have been somewhat AWOL of late. The reasons are personal as well as ministerial. God is at work and I have had to re-shuffle priorities according to His directions. However, you will have noticed that very little has been said by any prophecy “buffs” over the last few months. We seem to be in a lull that could be a breath before the real race begins.  During this time I have been busily engaged in finishing a major building project, taking care of new challenges in a growing church, and I have become a Grandfather.

Look for greater frequency in the Last Days Alert blog, and share it with everyone you can. I’m positive it will be insightful and encouraging…. less politically motivated, and more Biblically driven.

When Will Israel Strike?

The question remains lodged in the minds of just about everyone who has an eye to Midle Eastern events and Bible prophecy. When will Israel finally launch the inevitible strike against Iran in order to slow or destroy its march toward the development of nuclear weapons?

Frankly, no one knows when it will occur. There really isn’t even a good guess available.

Things we know and things we don’t.

1. We know that Israel will not rely on the United States for help in launching a strike. President Obama has made it clear he has no intentions of using a military option against the Mullahs. His path is the implementation of weak, pathetic, unilateral sanctions that are laughable. What Mullah is going to give up the progress made so far because of a slap on the wrist?

2. Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has informed the White House that it will NOT notify the US of, or if there is an impending attack. In other words, Obama cannot be trusted to keep his mouth shut. Plus, if Obama has no knowledge of an Israeli attack, he can then deny American involvement when the Shi’ites it the fan and go into a radical rage.

3. Israel is moving its advanced, Jericho III medium-to-long-range missiles into positions around the country.  This report from today’s headlines:

JERUSALEM — Multiple eyewitnesses reported seeing Israeli military trucks in recent days transport and station large missiles at the periphery of Jerusalem and in locations inside the West Bank. The descriptions of the projectiles are consistent with the Jewish state’s mid-to-long range Jericho ballistic missiles. The missile movement, if confirmed, would be considered unusual.

This could be the most important sign yet that an offensive launch is being prepared. Or, it could just be a drill to keep the IDF ready in case a quick deployment of the Jerichos is needed.

What we don’t know:

1. Why is Israel waiting? I think they already know they will be held in disdain whatever they do. If they attack, the world will react negatively, and possibly forcefully. If they don’t attack, the possibility of Iran using a nuke against Israel is almost certain. The world would shrug, maybe throw a little fit, but shrug nonetheless.

2. Why is God waiting?  Ah, now that is the REAL question. Circumstances have been ripe for the Psalm 83 Inner Ring War for months. Ezekiel 38 and 39 is already set up for fulfillment. What is the hold-up?

My take is that God is still calling to people in the region. Yes, the Lord loves Palestinians…just as much as he loves the Jews. He is no respecter of persons. He IS a respecter of covenants, but he will withhold his prophesied events as long as it take. That is why we must be praying for both Jews and Arabs to come to the knowledge of Jesus Christ before the end-all wars break out.

Also, as some have mentioned, could it be that God is holding back the attack on Iran because of the way the prophetic aftermath falls into the timing of the Rapture?  If so, we are seing God’s great patience, “not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentence.”

God is merciful and patient, but we are certainly in the last days of history and on the cusp of the birth of the Kingdom of God as revealed in the Scriptures.

Keep looking up!

NOTE: Many have wondered why the blogs have not been coming so hot and heavy lately. I appologize. More urgent matters have kept me away from the blogosphere. However, over the last few weeks we have basically been seeing the “same ole same ole” in regards to Middle East movement toward prophecy. In fact, few prophecy buffs have had anything substantive to say over the last two months. Why?  Is this like the breath before the action, or similar to the half hour silence in heaven during the Tribulation? Maybe, maybe not. My suggestion is to rely on the Word, Pray Hard, and share the Truth of Christ with everyone. That is what I have been up to.

 

Probability of Israeli Attack on Iran Increases

Any eyes that can forefully tear themselves away from the “exhilirating” Rebublican debates will probably be gazing at the latest events of the Middle East…particularly the growing tension between Iran and Israel.
debkafile
For the second time in four days, Iran has threatened to annihilate Israel. Sunday, Nov. 6, Tehran said four missiles would be enough to kill a million Israelis. Wednesday, Nov. 9, Gen. Masoud Jazayeri, deputy commander of Iran’s armed forces, said an American or Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities would not only result in the Jewish state’s extinction – “Dimona is the most accessible target” – but generate a response that “would not be limited to the Middle East.”

debkafile’s military sources interpret this to mean a missile attack on American bases in Europe and US Sixth Fleet vessels in the Mediterranean. “The smallest action by Israel [against Iran] and we will see its destruction,” Gen. Jazayeri went on to say. “We have plans of reprisal ready for any attack.”

In other words, Iran is growing more confident that its baiting Israel into a pre-emptive attack is actually going to work. Understand that Iran wants Israel to bomb its facilites…is begging Israel to unilaterally attempt to save itself…is dying to become the martyr. (Sorry for the pun.)
Where is Obama in all of this? Our President continues to use “cost-to-benefit” terminology to cover is utter reluctance to involve the US military in any attack that would aid Israel. By accident we all heard what Obama really thinks of Benjamin Netanyahu, how he sees working with the Israeli Prime Minister as being something he must “put up with” rather than being an actualy partner in Middle Eastern democracy.
In other words, count Obama out. (Hope that goes for 2012 too.)
So, Israel is alone….and knows it.
Today, Israel began testing the Jericho 3 nuclear-capable ballistic missile system while, at the same time, launching public missile defense drills throughout the country.
Why?
For one, Israel is demonstrating to Iran that it is serious about protecting itself even if it means using a preemptive nuclear strike.
But the Israelis also know that any attack on Iran is going to be the perverbial gas thrown on the fire. Israel is surrounded by Muslim Brotherhood ruled nations that possess nearly 150,000 short and medium ranged rockets that will rain down on the Jewish population. This is the same Muslim Brotherhood that has taken over Egypt, Gaza, Lebanon, Lybia, and is currently running the uprisings in Syria. This is the same Muslim Brotherhood that our President calls a moderate, workable, partner in Middle East peace.
So, the baiting by Iran continues.
The stupidity in the White House grows.
And, the preparations in Israel for war is increasing exponentially.

What does the Bible say about Iran and this coming war?
NOTHING!
But, the coming Inner Ring war will be orchestrated by Iran, have no doubt. Even if Israel strikes at Iran’s capabilities, the Iranians will not commit its own military to full scale action against Israel. They will use their puppet regimes in the afore mentioned nations.
Should war break out because of an Israeli attack, I see a few things happening.
1. Israel will be condemned by the world.
2. The Palestinians will win their beloved UN recognition.
3. Obama will continue to be Obama.
4. Iran will complete its takeover of Iraq.
5. Russia will solidify its support of Iran and the Muslim world.
and we will be well on our way down the path to the Ezekiel 38 & 39 Outer Ring war of Gog and Magog.

These are perilous times, yes, but it is also the time of great harvest.
Get to harvesting!

Jordan Will Be Next To Fall. Will the USA Help Make it Happen?

While the West smiles and slaps each other’s back at the fall of Gaddafi in Libya, the Barack Obama backed  Muslim Brotherhood continues its steady take-over of the Middle East. Yes, Obama called the Muslim Brotherhood an organization that the US could work with, even though Hamas, Hezbollah, and the protest movement in Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and through the region bow to its leadership.

According to Scripture (Psalm 83, Ezekiel 25, Joel 3, Zephaniah 2, and Zechariah 9), the ring of nations surrounding Israel will form the first coalition to attempt to destroy the Jews. Lebanon (Hezbollah), Gaza (Hamas), Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt will be the members of a radical Islamist attack on Israel.

Jordan is the last remaining pro-western Islamic nation in the region. Jordan will fall…probably sooner than we think, though King Abdullah is doing everything he can to hold onto power. This includes a series of reforms meant to appease the Muslim Brotherhood that is now in the process, with US help, of taking over Syria. This from the AP;

AMMAN – Jordan’s US-backed King Abdullah swore in on Monday a reform-minded government charged with speeding up political liberalization in response to domestic pressure for change after protests inspired by popular uprisings in the Arab world.

Prime Minister Awn Khasawneh, a former international jurist at the Hague-based International Court of Justice, was appointed last week to replace conservative ex-general Marouf al-Bakhit, who had been widely criticized for inept handling of the domestic crisis.

Ex-central banker Umayya Toukan was appointed as finance minister in a move officials said aimed to allay investor concerns over soaring public spending that has threatened Jordan’s fiscal and monetary stability.

The new cabinet lineup also includes moderates, tribal politicians and technocrats to widen its national appeal.

If there is anything we have learned it is that radical Islam cannot be appeased. Its ravenous desire is to conquer. PERIOD! Anything that would defy Islam’s total domination of each and every human being must be irradicated by violent action. This is radicalism; animalistic and without mercy or remorse.

Welcome to the world of the supposed religion of peace. (Sarcasm)

There is only one Prince of Peace, and he is coming soon.

The World Just Doesn’t “Get It”

The world, represented by the Quartet (UN, USA, EU, and Russia), just doesn’t get it when it comes to Palestinian intransigence. Barry Rubin, in and editorial in the Jerusalem Post summed  it up nicely.

No matter what the Palestinian Authority is offered – money, concessions and  even steps toward statehood– the response is always “no.” Media, academic “experts” and governments seem to find this amazing phenomenon very hard to  understand.The answer is simple, but a lot of the people paid to deal with this  stuff don’t get it. So let me elucidate: The Palestinian Authority (PA) wants  everything.

The PA wants an independent state on all the West Bank, Gaza  Strip and east Jerusalem with no restrictions, no recognition of Israel as a  Jewish state, no serious security guarantees, no limits on militarization, no  agreement that this means an end to the conflict, no insistence that Palestinian  refugees be resettled in the state of Palestine, and nothing to prevent them  from pursuing a second stage of wiping Israel off the map entirely.

Now,  one could say it’s common for people to want everything and to give nothing in  exchange but that certain factors – missing in this case – push them toward  compromise.

These factors include:

• Knowing they can’t get a better deal. The  Palestinians know the West will always offer more if they are  intransigent.

• The impasse favors your adversary because your  intransigence will gain it international support. In this case, the more  stubborn the Palestinians are, the more Israel is blamed.

• Economic  pressure. Since the PA is almost completely supported by foreign aid that is not  threatened by its hard line, this pressure does not exist.

• Public  opinion pressure to change the situation. In this case, Palestinian public  opinion is relatively radicalized and ideological and does not demand a  compromise settlement.

• Concern that your political rivals will “outmoderate” you and win by offering to make a deal. In this case, the opposite  is true: rivals “out-radicalize” one another and threaten to destroy you  politically (and perhaps even physically) if you make a deal.

• Belief  that time is not on your side. Due to religious and nationalist ideology, along  with misperception of Israel, the PA (and even more so Hamas) believes that time  is on its side.

That’s not a complete list. But the point is that the  world in general – the United States and Europe, the UN, Arabic-speaking  countries and Muslim-majority states – have created a “perfect” system.

Here’s a brief description:

• The PA has no incentive to make  compromises for peace, so it won’t.

• The world insists that “peace” is  an urgent top priority.

• The only variable is Israel, which must be made  to give way. But Israel won’t because of past experience and the fact that the  risks are now too high.

The only disagreement I have with Rubin’s opinion is in regards to his firm belief that the Palestinians will never gain statehood. Joel chapter three says otherwise. In fact, the road to Armageddon is paved when the world gets together to divide Israel.

Are we THAT close?

Harold Camping’s Faulty Eschatology

Most will remember the buzz circulating the media in May, most of it in the form of ridicule and comedic sarcasm. What here they lampooning?  The Reverend Harold Camping and his prediction of the destruction of the world which was to have taken place on May 21, 2011.

Of course, the Rapture and concurrent “end of the world” was missed by all. Camping’s immediate response was shock, but then he recovered to explain that the May 21st event was a spiritual pre-cursor to the actual
“judgment.”

Now, Camping is at it again. This week the self-proclaimed prophet came out with his revised prediction for the culmination of the “end of the world.” The date?  October 21st. According to camping all true believers will be raptured while the rest of the world will go quickly from fiery judgment into oblivion. So far, the media isn’t in a frenzy. Perhaps that’s good. There has been enough ridicule deposited from Camping’s eschatological error.

The problem is Camping’s eschatology (study and theology of the end times) is faulty.

Yes, there will be a Rapture of all true believers. (1 Thessalonians 4:15-18; 1 Corinthians 15:50-51)  Believers around the world will vanish and be transformed in the twinkling of an eye. That event is prophesied to happen at any time, but no man knows the day or the hour. Sorry Harold, no man will ever receive a prophecy concerning the day.

However, the destruction of the world does not occur simultaneously with the Rapture. The scriptures are clear. There will be a process of judgment that will lead to Armageddon. That process will take seven years. Now, some believe the Rapture will occur before the beginning of the seven-year Tribulation. I am one. Others believe it will be mid-way. Still others, few though they be, believe the Rapture will happen at the end of the seven-year Tribulation. Whichever you believe, the destruction of the earth doesn not happen at the end of the Tribulation. Prophesied throughout the scriptures is a 1000 year period in which the Son of Man–Messiah–will reign from Jerusalem. It is called the Millennium.

Even then, the destruction of the world will not take place until a final rebellion. Only then will we witness the end of the world” as we know it.

I make no judgments on Harold Camping’s relationship with Jesus Christ. I do take issue with his faulty view of the end times. His prophecies are false. Therefore, as far as Biblical eschatology is concerned, he is a false prophet whose work has had a hand in bringing reproach to the gospel and has destroyed the faith of all who have swallowed his error.

My advice is to read the Bible for yourself…don’t worry about when the Rapture will take place other than to be encouraged knowing it will happen soon…and focus on sharing the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ at every opportunity.

Israel Agrees to “Quartet” for Talks, Khamenei Speaks True Intent

Benjamin Netanyahu agreed today to go along with the “Quartet” (United States, Russia, EU, and UN) recommendation to enter into negotiations with the Palestinians with no preconditions. This, of course, is a blow to Obama’s standard of using the 1948 Armistice lines as a starting point. Netanyahu also knows that the Palestinians will not enter into such negotiations. He has cornered them for all the world to see, but the world will not see Palestinian intransigence, it seems.

In the meantime, Ayatollah Khamenei of Iran spoke the exact intent of radical Islam concerning the issue of the creation of a Palestinian state.

Iran’s supreme ruler, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, came out against a two state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on Saturday, speaking at Iran’s fifth International Conference on Palestinian Intifada.

Khamenei said that the creation of a Palestinian state alongside Israel amounts to a renouncement of the Palestinian rights, asserting that any solution to the conflict must be based on a principle of “the whole Palestine for all Palestinians,” PressTV reported.

Again, Palestinians, and the greater Arab world, want all of so-called Palestine for Palestinians…absent the Jews. Why?

Remember that we are looking at an ancient struggle of two half-brothers, sons of Abraham. Ishmael, the eldest and son of an Egyptian slave, was passed over when Abraham issued the blessing and birth-right to Isaac, the son of Sarah. Isaac was the inheritor of all of the land upon which Abraham walked. He was also the recipient of all the promises given by God to Abraham.

Ishmael had been at odds with Isaac ever since. For Ishmael’s offspring to share the land with Isaac’s offspring would nullify their claim to the complete inheritance of Abraham. That is why this small strip of land is the focus of the entire world, though the entire world is clueless.

At least two final battles are scheduled between the God of Isaac…Jehovah…and the god of Ishmael…Allah! As only Jehovah is God and Allah is a demon-inspired figment of imagination, Jehovah will prevail.  (See Psalm 83, and Ezekiel 38 and 39)

In the meantime, Jehovah loves the children of Ishmael, which is why we as believers are commissioned to pray for all who are caught in the lie of Islam.
