In message 2 of the Allied Invasion of Israel I explain briefly the concept of Israel becoming a sovereign nation again. In 1948, after the United Nations voted to give Israel statehood, five Muslim armies (Egypt, Syria, Transjordan, Lebanon and Iraq) immediately invaded Israel. The stated purpose of this invasion was to ‘push the Jews into the sea’, in other words, genocide. Assam Pasha, Secretary-General of the Arab League, declared their intentions: ‘This will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacres and the Crusades. “What Hitler didn’t finish three years earlier, the Arabs would finish once and for all.” A Nazi collaborator, Hajj Amin al-Husseini, led the Arabs of the former British Mandate of Palestine. He was charged at the Nuremberg trials before escaping in 1946. Al-Husseini actively supported Hitler’s aim to exterminate the Jews in World War II. The Jews prevailed with only WW I weapons against all these Muslim nations.

I Thought I Saw It Coming
Jack Kinsella It is incredible, yet true. We are witnessing the unfolding of events long prophesied to take place during the last generation before the return of Christ. We knew that it was coming – we were almost eager to see this day because it means the Rapture is that much closer. But as the day approaches, it becomes less an abstract notion and more a crushingly painful reality. It has made that transition from theoretical possibility to actual fact. We always knew, in theory that, one day Christians would be marginalized to the point of insignificance. We always knew …
Merkel: Moscow & West have common interest in fighting terrorism
Published time: 18 Feb, 2017 08:44 German Chancellor Angela Merkel has pledged to remain committed to improving relations with Russia despite disagreements. She added that Russia and the West have a common interest in fighting terrorism. “Over the past 25 years, we haven’t been able to establish stable relations with Russia, but Russia is our neighbor, it’s an EU external border,” Merkel said as cited by TASS news agency. Merkel said she would not cease to be committed to maintaining good relations with Russia, despite differing opinions on various issues. In particular, Merkel said, “it is important… to go on …
If the Lord is calling you, say yes and see what amazing, life-changing work He can do through you
Acts 6:4 (KJV) 4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word. God has issued some dramatic calls to service. For example, Moses heard His voice from a burning bush, and Isaiah saw a vision of heaven’s throne room (Ex. 3; Isa. 6). But a spectacle is the exception rather than the rule. For most who follow God to the mission field, His call is a tug on the heart, persistently whispering, “How will they know God unless someone tells them?” (See Rom. 10:14.) It’s better if the Lord doesn’t have to use …
What is the rapture and when will it occur?
“Rapture” is a term used by Christians to explain an event described by the Apostle Paul who wrote: “But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who …
“Whereas the Lord was there.” Ezekiel 35:10
Edom’s princes saw the whole country left desolate, and counted upon its easy conquest; but there was one great difficulty in their way–quite unknown to them–“The Lord was there;” and in his presence lay the special security of the chosen land. Whatever may be the machinations and devices of the enemies of God’s people, there is still the same effectual barrier to thwart their design. The saints are God’s heritage, and he is in the midst of them, and will protect his own. What comfort this assurance yields us in our troubles and spiritual conflicts! We are constantly opposed, and …
The Only Way to God
Reflections I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except by Me. (John 14:6) Jesus did not say, “I am A way, A truth, and A life.” This is proven by His next words: “No one comes to the Father except by Me.” He could not have been more clear. Now, (pardon me as I borrow an argument from C.S. Lewis) either Jesus Christ was liar, totally insane, or He was telling the complete Truth about Himself. Thus, those who say He was a good man or prophet have no basis for their …
1 Jewish Persecution
Because of recent events in the Mid-East I am posting this short six part series of the Allied Invasion by The Russians, The Muslim Nations, and The Germans. It comes from Ezekiel 38 & 39 and very near to us today. This series begins with a short exposition of the Covenant God gave to Abraham.
Abraham was a Gentile when God gave him a covenant .
It first occurs in Genesis Chapter 12, and includes
seven ‘I Wills’:
1. I will make of thee a great nation,
2. I will bless thee,
3. I will make thy name great;
4. Thou shalt be a blessing:
5. I will bless them that bless thee,
6. I will curse him that curseth thee:
7. In thee shall all families of the
earth be blessed. Genesis 12:2-3
It is to this sixth promise that we begin our study
of Ezekiel 38 and 39.
OUTLINE:
1. Introduction & Abrahamic Covenant
2. Ezekiel, The Prophet and Priest of Israel in
Babylon
3. Russian Persecutions
4. Soviet Persecutions
5. German Persecutions
6. Muslim Nation Persecutions
7. World Empires Which Lead to a One-World
Government
8. Divine Retribution
9. Who are the Invading Nations, How do we Know?
10. Where do they come from and where do they
invade?
11. Why are they Invading? Gog’s Perspective;
God’s Perspective.
12. What Happens to the Invaders?
13. How does it Happen?
14. God’s Name is Sanctified
15. The Seven Years of Burning
16. The Seven Months of Clean Up
Jesus Christ is God
Reflections There are professing Christians today, including entire churches, who deny that Jesus Christ is God. Of course this means they must also deny the virgin birth, His resurrection, and deny that He is the ONLY WAY to the Father. Yet some profess that they love others and say they love God. The Bible does not mince words on this matter: Whosoever transgresses, and abides not in the doctrine of Christ, has not God. He that abides in the doctrine of Christ, he has both the Father and the Son. (2 John 1:9) The, “doctrine of Christ,” includes all of …
The Mystery of God in Christ
By David A. DePra Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God; Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: (Col 1:25-27) The MYSTERY of God is CHRIST IN US, the hope of glory. Of course, the English word, “mystery,” does not convey …
He Reigns
Psalm 93(KJV)
93 The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.
2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.
3 The floods have lifted up, O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.
4 The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.
5 Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O Lord, for ever.
He Reigns
It is a voice for God. “God hath a voice that ever is heard, In the peal of the thunder, the chirp of the bird: It comes in the torrent, all rapid and strong, In the streamlet’s soft gush, as it ripples along; In the waves of the ocean, the furrows of land, In the mountain of granite, the atom of sand; Turn where ye may, from the sky to the sod, Where can ye gaze that ye see not a God?
God is mighty in creation.

Under His Wings
He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust. Psalm 91:4 Under His wings I am safely abiding, Tho the night deepens and tempests are wild; Still I can trust Him– I know He will keep me, He has redeemed me and I am His child. Under His wings, what a refuge in sorrow! How the heart yearningly turns to His rest! Often when earth has no balm for my healing, There I find comfort and there I am blest. Under His wings, O what precious enjoyment! There will I hide till life’s trials are …
The Finished Work
God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them. (II Cor. 5:19) God has already forgiven the entire human race because of Jesus Christ. Because Jesus Christ has FINISHED His redemptive work, God is finished forgiving. And His forgiveness is total for every sin ever committed, or that will be committed. Our faith does not contribute to this finished work. Nor can our unbelief subtract from it. It is a finished reality for us — regardless of whether we believe it or not. Thus, our faith doesn’t convince God to forgive us. Rather, by …
Genesis Message 60 Jacob’s Stairway to Heaven
In this video Dr Woodhead discusses Jacob’s dream which produced the image of a ladder. In Hebrew this is soolam סֻלָּם֙
This is a unique word. The Jewish encyclopedia refers to it as a hapax legomena. These are words or forms of words that occur once only. There are about 1,500 of these in the Old Testament; but only 400 are, strictly, “hapax legomena”; that is, are either absolutely new coinages of roots, or cannot be derived in their formation or in their specific meaning from other occurring stems. This occurrence of the word ladder is one of the 400 strict hapax legomena. The reason it is classified in this category is it is a very unique ladder, not the type we would normally consider when we see that word. It’s meaning is actually a stairway, which is giving Jacob access to Heaven. What Jacob sees on this stairway when it appears are the angels of God. Interestingly, the appearance of these angels is when he leaves the Land and when he returns to the Land. Here the angels are seen ascending and descending on the stairway to Heaven. They are making the path for Jacob to see the physical manifestation of Jehovah God, The Shechinah Glory. He then speaks to Jacob from the top of the stairway. He says that, I am Jehovah, the God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac. The Hebrew word for father is av אָב and it also means ancestor so God is not referring to Abraham in the strict sense of Jacob’s father. Isaac of course is his immediate father but Jehovah identifies Jacob with both of them to affirm the Covenant. He states the four provisions of the Covenant.
1. The Land is promised to him personally and individually (seed affirms Jacob’s success in finding a wife and producing offspring).
2. Jehovah says that his offspring will be innumerable.
3. He promised a Gentile blessing, which was also affirmed specifically to both Abraham and Isaac as well.
4. Finally four specific personal promises are made to Jacob.
a. God promised to be with him
b. He promised to protect Jacob (keep you wherever you go)
c. God promised to bring him again into the Land
d. He would not leave Jacob until He had fulfilled the promises of the Covenant.
