When you see all these signs know that it it near even at the doors/Feb. 16, 2010

Prophecy Signs: Today as usual we are seeing two prophecy signs in the making.  The first is found in Matthew 24:7 were Christ tells us we will hear rumors of war.   There is no question the news services are which are reporting on Israel and Iran are filled with these rumors.  In verse 7 Jesus also says there will be wars.  One thing is certain, Israel and Iran are going to be engaged in a war soon.  I am convinced that the crisis over Iran’s nuclear weapons program will lead not only to a war with Iran but the war God showed Ezekiel in Ezekiel chapters 38-39.   It is becoming a weekly event to hear about one or more nations warning Israel not to attack Iran.  Here is the latest news from a report entitled, “Israel should heed Obama’s warning not to strike Iran”.

–

 “Both Israeli and Iranian leaders have escalated the threats they have been exchanging over the past few weeks. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke at Auschwitz about a new Amalek.”  What is a new Amalek? “As the Jewish Encyclopedia put it, "David waged a sacred war of extermination against the Amalekites," who may have subsequently disappeared from history. Long after, in the time of hezekiah, five hundred Simeonites annihilated the last remnant "of the Amalekites that had escaped" on Mount Seir, and settled in their place (1 Chr. 4:42-43).”  Netanyahu stated this because for the past two years Iran’s President has been telling the news services he is going to wipe Israel off the map.

Continuing on with the news report it stated, “Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told his Syrian counterpart Bashar Assad that if Israel goes to war, "we need to put an end to the Zionist regime once and for all." And last week, on the anniversary of the Iranian revolution, Ahmadinejad announced that Iran will enrich uranium to 20 percent and declared that his country is capable of building an atomic bomb.”  “The likelihood that the American move will succeed is unclear, but Israel is required to give Obama a chance, for one simple reason: Israel will need full American support for any actions it may decide to take against the Iranian threat. If Israel goes to war, it will need intelligence help, prior warning, military equipment and diplomatic support from the United States. No other country would or could aid Israel, and uncoordinated Israeli action would justifiably arouse U.S. anger, since it would endanger America's vital interests in the region. Thus, despite all the anger and fear that Ahmadinejad's threats raise in Israel, for now, Israel should respond quietly and let Obama lead the effort to stop the Iranian nukes. Netanyahu has no better option.”

I for one am surprised Israel have waited this long in attacking Iran.  In the past few years there have already been three rounds of sanctions against Iran over their nuclear weapons program.  Now they plan a four round, but this one won’t work either.  I may be wrong but this is what I think may happen in the near future.  More time will be given Iran to respond to these sanctions and while the world waits to see what will happen between Israel and Iran, Israel will be forced into another war with their neighbors of which Syria will be included.   Keep in mind what “Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told his Syrian counterpart Bashar Assad that if Israel goes to war, "we need to put an end to the Zionist regime once and for all.”  This is exactly what we read about in the Psalms 83 war.   While Iran is waiting for Israel to attack them they will find out that their Syrian counterpart will go to war against Israel first.  Once Iran witnesses Syria and her allies defeated this will tick off Iran even further and bring on the Ezekiel war.  I think it may happen this way because the Ezekiel war happens at a time when Israel in living in what they feel is security without wall to protect them.  This can happen when Israel’s neighbors are defeated and Israel takes over more of their land.  One war takes place when they are calling for Peace and safety, and the other takes places when they believe they are living in safety.

–

I am in good company in doubting any new sanctions against Iran.  Look at who else is doubting?  I quote, “RIYADH, Saudi Arabia – Saudi Arabia's foreign minister on Monday expressed doubts about the usefulness of more sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program.”  “The Saudi minister spoke at a joint appearance with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is in the Persian Gulf to shore up support for new sanctions against Iran. The Saudi minister also said efforts supported by the U.S. to rid the Middle East of nuclear weapons must apply to Israel.  If you read Psalms 83 you will find out the Saudi Arabia is one of the nations who is going to attack Israel with Syria soon.  I can as no surprise to me that the Saudi’s came against Israel on this issue.  The Saudi Government knows Israel has the means to wipe out any of its neighbors today if they wanted to, and this reports shows that their attitude toward Israel is in agreement to what Psalms 83 shows us.

Prophecy Sign:In many of my posts I mentioned to you that God has placed a curse on anyone who has or is coming against the nation of Israel.  We see this curse in Genesis 12:3 where is says, “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."  Today’s news we see a Shas Rabbi talking about a curse in a report entitled, “Shas rabbi: Ahmadinejad can go to hell“  “Shas' spiritual leader, Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, slammed Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in his weekly sermon Saturday evening, referring to the Iranian president as "Haman of our generation" and saying that he "can go to hell". The rabbi, who dedicated his address to Jewish laws related to the holiday of Purim, spoke about the followers of Haman, the grand vizier of Persia. "In every generation we have Hamans," he said. "Now we have a new Haman in Persia, threatening us with his nukes.  “He went on to curse the Iranian leader, using verses from the Bible.”  What is the result of God’s curse?  Those who come against Israel will be destroyed.  Soon this generation will see part of this curse fulfilled when we witness the Psalms 83 and Ezekiel wars.

Prophecy Sign: As I stated many time before, I Thessalonians 5:3 warns us that we are going to see sudden destruction when they are calling for Peace and safety.  Another major prophecy that hasn’t happened yet is found in Daniel 9:27. I quote verse 27. “He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' In the middle of the 'seven' he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing [of the temple] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him."  You may be asking what is the connection between the call for Peace and safety and Daniel 9:27?  We believe the Antichrist will confirm the covenant mentioned in verse 27 after Israel wins the Ezekiel war.  Once all of Israel’s enemies seem to be wiped out a new peace covenant will go out to protect Israel.  We are told in verse 27 that the Antichrist will confirm this covenant. 

–

What I find very interesting in this next report is that Italy’s President is going to Syria to talk about the peace process.  We are told in Daniel chapter 9 that the Antichrist will come from the revived Roman Empire.  This man who comes from the revived Roman Empire is the same man who will confirm that agreement, or if you will, the covenant.  As you all know by now the European Union is the revived Western leg of the old Roman Empire.  Anytime anyone gets involved with the Middle East peace process and is coming from this revived Roman Empire I send out the red flag!

–

Here is the latest news on this subject.  “The Italian President Giorgio Napolitano will start an official visit to Syria in mid-March where he will hold talks with his Syrian counterpart Bashar Al-Assad, focusing on bilateral relations between the two countries and ways to develop them, an official Syrian Source said Tuesday. The source added that relations between Syria and Italy, the peace process in the Middle East, economic exchange and the role that Rome wants to play in the re-launch of Syrian-Israeli negotiations, will be on the visit agenda. The Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said during his visit to Damascus last April, he was agrees with the Syrians that "2009 will be the year of peace," and as Italy lies in the Mediterranean, therefore could hold talks with the US to bring peace in the region, based on the Arab peace initiative and decisions of the International Quartet Committee.  First of all it doesn’t surprise me in the least that Rome is getting more active in the peace process.  If the Western leg of the old Roman Empire is to usher in the Antichrist and he comes from Italy than we should see news telling us the Italy is becoming a major player in the peace process, which as you can see they are.  Foreign Minister Franco Frattini has been involved in this peace process, the Italian President Giorgio Napolitano is not engaged, and just last week Italy’s Prime Minister was in Israel taking on a bigger role in the peace process.  I know what many of you are going to ask me.  Do I think one of these men is the Antichrist?  All I can say that it is possible.  If you read chapter 2 of my book you will also learn that I am watching the Eastern leg of the old Roman Empire because there is the chance that the man of sin will rise up from this side.  Believe me, I am watching the news like a hawk and as soon as I see events that will connect the dots for us between scripture and current events I will report on it.  For now keep watching how successful Italy is in dealing with this peace process.  One thing is very clear.  If you are watching the news and see a man confirm a new covenant for seven years, you won’t need me to tell you this is the Antichrist, just remember the warning God gave you in Daniel 9:27.

Let me add one more thing.  If you are a Christian your focus should not be on the Antichrist, it should be on Jesus Christ.   Yes, we are to watch the signs of the times because these signs point to Christ coming back for His Church.  We know the Lord is going to remove all those people who have received Jesus as their Lord and so we wait and keep on the watch for Him.

–

Now the unbeliever is a different story.  I am connecting the dots between Bible prophecy and current events so that if they continue to refuse Christ as their savior, they will need to know what is going to happen once the Church is raptured.  If you are a person who is holding back in receiving Jesus as your Lord and you keep this up, than Christ is not coming for you.  In your case you need to know the signs of the Antichrist because it is he who you are going to see not Jesus.  Once Jesus comes and removes His children you will be left behind to go through the seven year tribulation.  There are going to many people who had refused Jesus because of their unbelief that will find out the hard way they made the biggest mistake of their lives by not asking Jesus to be their savior.  These are the people who will begin to follow Christ during the tribulation and have to die for the Lord by refusing the mark of the Antichrist.  If you fall in this group of people I want to make sure you know as much as you can about this Antichrist so you will be able to spot him during the beginning of the seven years.  God help anyone who chooses not to take Jesus as his or her Lord.

I want to take time to point out what may be a very important clue concerning this last world empire which Daniel talks about in Daniel 2:43. Those of you who have been regular reads at my site know I am watching certain signs that will help us determine what part of the old Roman Empire will end up being the one in which the Antichrist comes from.  Daniel tells us the following: “And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.”  According to Daniel the last revived Roman Empire will come together again but as you can see it will not remain united.  Since the European Union is the Western leg of the old Roman Empire and they have been joined together again we needed to watch and see if this part of the prophecy would be fulfilled.  As you can see from what is happening from the current global economic crisis, this crisis has also taken a toll on the European Union.  I quote, “The euro, already under pressure, came under renewed attack Monday as a French bank speculated that the currency union would inevitably collapse.  Meanwhile, a former chief economist of the European Central Bank warned that a bailout for member country Greece could damage the euro's credibility.  Société Générale strategist Albert Edwards warned investors that any help given to Greece merely “delays the inevitable break-up of the euro zone,” while former European Central Bank Chief Economist Otmar Issing, in a Financial Times piece, said bailing out Greece would be a “major blow” to the currency.  “The viability of the whole framework — nothing less — is at stake,” wrote Issing.  “Financial assistance for countries that violated the terms of their participation in EMU would be a major blow for the credibility of the whole framework.”  The euro could sink to $1.3483 from its $1.5144 high in November, traders told the U.K. Daily Mail.” 

–

As you can see from this report the Union is in deep trouble and it does appears Daniel’s warning is coming to pass.  At the present time the EU is made up of 27 nations.  What if the Union fulfills this part of the Word, “just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay”?  Is it possible that the EU will not remain united and 10 nations of the 27 nations will stay together?  Will it be these ten nations that the little horn, (Antichrist), will make his way up into as it states in Daniel 7:7-8?   When you take everything that is happening right now you can see prophecy coming together.   America is declining in power.  She has caused a worldwide economic crisis that has spread throughout the world.  We can see economic disaster coming on the world that is going to force a new economic system, one in which one man will have control of.  The signs of the times are showing us via what is happening in America and the EU that the kingdom that the Antichrist will rule over is headed toward us like the Mother of all storms.  I said this before but let me repeat this for the new people at my site.  The closer we get to Jesus taking His Church out of the world the clearer the prophecy picture will become.  All I can say to all of you at this point is, let us watch and see what happens with the Western leg of the old Roman Empire.  I will remain here as long as possible to help connect the dots between these prophecies and current events.  However, I can tell you all this, if I knew I could pact a bag to meet Jesus at the rapture, I would pack that bag today.  Never before has one generation seen all these prophecies come to pass all at the same time.  This is exactly what Jesus instructed us to watch for and it is already here.  If you were able to bring a bag at the rapture would you join me in packing your things to go?

Prophecy Sign: Zechariah 12:3 gives us a warning concerning the city of Jerusalem in the last days.  In this warnings we are told this city is going to be a major problem for the world just prior to the return of the Lord.  This is hat Zech. 12:3 says, “And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”  Not only is the world hearing the call for Peace and safety but the current peace process is maining focused on who get ownership of this holy city.  Here is proof that this city has become a burden. ““Minister-without-Portfolio Bennie Begin, speaking Monday at a gathering in Jerusalem, said that the city’s status as the capital of Israel has been undermined over the last few years.  “Far ranging plans have been put on the negotiating table, not only in east Jerusalem, but proposals have been made for Israel to relinquish Jewish sovereignty over Temple Mount, the Mount of Olives, and the City of David,” said Begin. Begin went on to say that “in the name of the Israeli government, such proposals and ones like them will not be considered under any condition.” 

–

Will the Israeli Government give away east Jerusalem and the Temple Mount on which God’s Holy Temple stood?  Let’s take a ride into the near future and see what Jesus has to say about this via what Christ told the Apostle Paul in II Thessalonians 2: 4. I quote, “He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God.  Jesus showed Paul that the Antichrist is going to go into the Jewish Temple and tell the world he is God.  This shows us that the Third Temple will be rebuilt again on the Mount where the first and second Temples once stood.  Knowing this, if is safe to say that at the end of the day Israel will not be giving up the holy city nor the Temple Mount on which the Jewish Temple will sit. 

–

This is what I believe will take place.  The Psalms war will break out soon because of the failed peace process. Israel will win the war and there will be no need to even talk about giving up the holy city nor the Temple mount, because Israel will not only take more land away from their enemies but they will once again begin to run the Temple Mount which they handed over control to the Arabs right after the 1967 war.  I truly believe that knowing Israel is in control of the Temple Mount will drive the Islamic nations nuts and especially Iran.   I do think that this city is going to play a major role in why Russia hooks up with Iran and the rest of the Islamic nations listed in Ezekiel 38 and attacks Israel.  The section of the Zech. 12:3 Israel’s enemies should take notice of is this, “all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces”.  Russia, Iran, Turkey, Libya and all the nations listed in Ezekiel 38 are going to be cut into pieces when they try to wipe Israel off the map.  When will the Third Temple be built?  I believe as soon as this war is over the Antichrist will confirm that seven year covenant as outline in Daniel 9:27.  One of his first acts will to be to tell the Jews to go ahead and rebuild their Third Temple.  It is this Temple that Jesus spoke to Paul about. 

–

The next question you are going to ask is this, how long do I think we have before this will all take place?  Knowing that we need to see the Psalms 83 war fulfilled first we should watch the events taking place between Israel and their neighbors.  At the present time it appears this war could break out at any time, as tensions are getting much hotter over the stalled peace process.  I would consider us lucky if we don’t see this war in the next six months the way things are going.

I promise you are going to love this one!  In chapter 10 of my book I wrote the following.  “In the 38th chapter of Ezekiel, we are told by God an attack would come against Israel in the last days.  This future attack will come at a time when Israel does not have any walls, gates, or bars.  In other words, the attack will come at a time when Israel will feel secure.  The prophet Ezekiel was given specific details on this coming attack.  In verse 8 of Ezekiel 38, God says an attack will occur in the “future years.”  This statement refers to end times or at the time Israel is a young nation again.  It is important to remember the attack will come against Israel when all the other prophecies are also being fulfilled at the same time, which they are now.

 -

“Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? Hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? To carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?” (Ezekiel 38:13)  As the attack begins, we see specific nations that are mentioned which only give their formal protest against the invading armies.  The nations which give their formal protest are not engaged in the battle.  Sheba and Dedan in verse 13 are modern day Saudi Arabia.  Great Britain is what is referred to in the Old Testament as Tarshish.  The nations, which broke away from Great Britain, are the United States, Canada, and Australia; these nations are considered the young lions of Tarshish or Great Britain in modern day terms.  Look up the coat of arms for Great Britain; it is the lion.

–

Ezekiel Chapter 38:13 tells us that Great Britain, which is the lion, the United States, Canada, and Australia, which are the young lions are in the area of Saudi Arabia at the time the attack against Israel breaks out.  These nations will do nothing to help Israel except to give their formal protest to the massive invasion.  Are these nations in the area right now?  Yes, they are.  When the United States attacked Iraq in 2004, the nations which joined forces with America were Great Britain, Canada, and Australia.  These nations are still in Iraq today, and they have military bases in Saudi Arabia.  When the attack against Israel begins, there will be millions of men who come against Israel.  America and her allies will not be able to do anything to help Israel; all they will be able to do is give their protest.  Now that we know who will not help Israel when she is attacked, let us review which nations are listed that will attack Israel.”

–

I had to give you this information to set you up for this report which was issued today.  I quote, “(IsraelNN.com) An Iranian attack on Israel would be considered an attack on Canada, according to Peter Kent, Canada's Minister of State for Foreign Affairs of the Americas and a legislator from an Ontario community with a large Jewish population. He told Shalomlife.com, “Canada has been concerned for some time not only about brutal repression of civil rights in Iran but also about the nuclear adventurism and the proclaimed quest of nuclear weaponry by President [Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad.”  Canada has been one of Israel's staunchest allies, and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper last week called for a coordinated international effort to halt "the grave danger" of Iran's pursuit of nuclear capability. Both Harper and Kent condemned Iran for human rights abuses.”

–

Those who do not know Bible prophecy and do not follow the news will not know that the young lions mentioned in Ezekiel are in the Middle East right now exactly where they are suppose to be in the latter days.  These young lions are fighting as allies against the Islamic terrorists.  If God showed us that these exact nations would be in this region when the Russian lead invasion takes place, and they are there now what makes you think the rest of this prophecy will not happen?  It is very clear that all the players of the Ezekiel war are in fact in position right now.  This is one reason why I can tell you this prophecy will be fulfilled shortly.

Prophecy Sign: As long as I am writing on what God showed Ezekiel let me show you that the Prime Minister of Israel just recently told the world that Ezekiel 37 was already fulfilled.  I quote, “The leader of a Messianic Jewish ministry is pleased that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently proclaimed the fulfillment of the prophecy in Ezekiel, Chapter 37. Speaking on the recent 65th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz in Poland, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu proclaimed the fulfillment of the prophet Ezekiel's vision of the valley of dry bones.  Netanyahu said, "Armed with the Jewish spirit, the justice of man, and the vision of the prophets, we sprouted new branches and grew deep roots. Dry bones became covered with flesh, a spirit filled them, and they lived and stood on their own feet."  Israel was a dead nation or, so it seemed to those who didn’t know prophecy.  God showed us this dead nation would rise up again from the dry bones to live again.  Now that this part of the prophecy has been fulfilled and the world knows it because Israel is a strong nation again the next chapter, Ezekiel 38 will be completed.  The news is loaded with signs Jesus is coming for His Church soon.

I can assure you all that it is not just the Christians who believe the Ezekiel war is headed toward Israel and that the Temple Mount has ties to this prophecy.  The Chairman of the Temple Mount just sent out a very important message, which everyone needs to read.  I am just going to quote from a section of this article entitled, “An Urgent Call From Gershon Salomon, Chairman of the Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement, to All the Nations and to Everyone in the World:” 

–

“The pressures on Israel at this time that are coming from the East and the West indicate that the end-time war of the nations against the G‑d and people of Israel, which was prophesied by the prophets of Israel to be the ultimate judgment upon the nations, is behind the door.  The complete redemption of Israel, the rebuilding of the Temple, and the coming of Messiah Ben David are the next stages in G‑d's end-time plans with Israel and the entire world.  Sixty-two years after the re-establishment of the State of Israel by the G‑d of Israel to be His end-time eternal kingdom, and after seven wars with Arab-Islamic nations who were backed by many nations worldwide that came to destroy Israel again and again, Israel is again facing pressure from every side with step-by-step preparations of the enemies of the G‑d and people of Israel to destroy the State of Israel through an apocalyptic war with nuclear weapons that were never used in the past. These nations refused to learn through their own previous experiences when the G‑d of Israel defeated them again and again and showed them that He is determined to rebuild His Holy Kingdom Israel in the Promised Land that He gave only to His people Israel.

–

Now, when the dark clouds of the end-time war are beginning to surround Israel from every side, G‑d is going to judge the nations exactly as He promised in His prophetic Word. G‑d will prove to them that He is determined to complete during these critical end-times what He started with Abraham and his seed Israel more than 4,000 years ago and that the re-established nation of Israel today in the Land of its biblical heritage is by far His greatest handiwork ever in the history of the world, and that a moral and G-dly redemption will come to the entire world only through the redemption of His people Israel. G‑d is busy together with His people Israel rebuilding His kingdom to be an example and a light to all the nations. The climax of this G-dly handiwork that is called Israel today is going to be the rebuilding of the Temple of G‑d by the people of Israel in Jerusalem and this will open the door for the coming of Messiah Ben David during our lifetimes. Jerusalem is again going to be the city where G‑d dwells among His people Israel and from where He will lead them and the entire world according to His holy and moral laws and principles. It behooves all of the nations that are coming again to remove Israel from the map of the world to realize that G‑d is going to judge them terribly and show them that no weapon in the world can stop His end-time plans with Israel or destroy His chosen people and that Israel, the most major and G-dly phenomenon ever in the history of mankind, is eternal and irrevocable.” 

–

We are living in very exciting times.  I compare these times with the days in which John the Baptist was living.  John knew the Messiah was coming and he was looking for Him.  Jesus came to fulfill everything written about Him.  Christ promised He would come back when we saw all the signs He gave us, and just like John the Baptist we can see these signs now, which tells us our time is short.  John was blessed to Jesus face to face and our generation will soon see Christ face to face at the rapture.  Today would be a great day to be reborn in Jesus Christ.  Please give your life over to the Lord before He comes for the His Church.

It is my prayer that my work for Jesus has guided you to accept Christ as your Savior. If this is the case, you can begin your new walk by saying this prayer.  Notice I said begins your walk.  Once you make a commitment to Christ pour out your heart to Him and let Him help you grow in His ways.  Seek out a Church where they teach the entire Bible, and join in the Lord’s fellowship.  We are much to close to the Lord’s second coming to be a lukewarm Christian.
