PROPHETIC NEWS - "...In such an hour as you think not, the Son of Man cometh" Matthew 24:44

“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that putteth bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20

The Holy Land Foundation (HLF) was the largest Islamic charity in the United States, headquartered in Richardson, Texas. In December 2001, the US government charged HLF with funding Hamas, a Palestinian terrorist organization, they seized its assets and closed it down. After two years, a federal grand jury charged HLF and five former officers and employees with crimes related to funding Hamas. The first trial ended in one acquittal and a hung jury. The defendants were retried and all were convicted of all counts in 2008. The defendants were given sentences ranging from 15 to 65 years in prison for funneling $12 million to Hamas. Albeit, there are still Muslim terrorist front groups operating right here in the United States. In fact, there are nearly 300 other Muslim terrorist-supporting groups not being prosecuted in the US. Every one of these front groups were started by the Council for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), according to the testimony of Lieutenant General William G. Boykin, former Commander of Delta Force and former US Deputy Undersecretary of Defense. He said many of these terrorist groups are “unindicted coconspirators” with the HLF terrorist organization. Why were the others not indicted? In 1871 Ulysses S. Grant cracked down on the Ku Klux Klan, after they refused to dissolve, and hundreds were arrested by federal troops and prosecuted, rightly so. It isn’t as though the US government doesn’t know where these front groups are. Government officials actually named them “unindicted coconspirators” with HLF, yet still refused to prosecute them in 2008! We only need to remember who took the presidential post in 2008 to understand the reason why CAIR operates openly and freely, as well as hundreds of other terrorist groups. Am I kidding? I wish it was so...but that’s not all! A study was conducted in 2011, which included 53 court cases around the United States. The study actually revealed that judges admitted administering “justice” using Shariah law as the foundation for their rulings, which is illegal and a violation of the US Constitution. There were more than 80 Shariah courts in the United Kingdom in 2010, and there are more today. Those that say this kind of thing can’t happen here in the United States are not facing reality, nor do they understand Bible prophecy. One of the most egregious cases involved a Muslim woman’s family court case in the State of New Jersey. The woman sought a restraining order to stop her Muslim husband from beating and raping her repeatedly. The residing judge actually refused to issue a restraining order, stating the reason was because “your husband is a Muslim and he is allowed to beat and rape you.” The woman won her case on appeal, but these outrageous Shariah rulings are happening throughout the US and, tragically, not everyone is able to appeal to higher courts. Barack Hussein Obama has been migrating Muslims into the US by the tens of thousands since he took office, and myriads have been allowed in through the open US-Mexico border.

The Word of God tells us that the antichrist “will cause all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark on their right hand, or on their foreheads, that no man might buy or sell, except he who has the mark, the name of the beast, or the number of his name...” Revelation 13:16-18. The Bible also tells us that those who do not receive his mark will be beheaded, “I saw thrones and those who sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them; and I saw the souls of those who were beheaded for the witness of Jesus and for the Word of God, who had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands, and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years” Revelation 20:4.

The Islamic State (IS) rose up out of Iraq, the ancient City of Babylon. The Assyrians rebuilt Babylon in 609 BC and it became the largest city in the world at that time. They warred against Israel to destroy them after Israel worshiped idols and forsook the Lord. The Prophets Isaiah and Micah wrote that the “Assyrian” (referring to the antichrist) would come against Israel also in the latter days (Isaiah 10:24, 14:25; Micah 5:5-6) and that the Lord will smite him. As we see the antichrist kingdom rising again out of ancient Babylon (Micah 4:10), beheading Christians and threatening to destroy Israel, we can clearly see that the Lord’s return is imminent.

God bless you.

“After many days, thou shalt be visited; in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword” Ezekiel 38:8

Seven continents divided by the United Nations.

The last empire – a mixture of iron/clay (Daniel 2:33).

Green nations = Federations / Blue nations = Unitary States)

“I saw a beast rise up out of the sea having seven heads and ten horns” Rev 13:1

The United Nations divided the globe into seven continents, as depicted on the continental map above (top). Here, we may be looking at the seven-headed beast described in Revelation 13. The Apostle John described the beast as having 10 horns (rulers) upon the 7 heads (nations, or possibly continental divides). The governing bodies of these continents are actually helping one another forge a New World Order right before our eyes, but most of the world’s population hasn’t recognized it yet. Outlined by color-coding, their NWO map above (top) shows that the UN has all of Asia under one leadership, which includes Israel and other Middle Eastern nations. It is phenomenal to see the Islamic State (IS) expanding their regime in that area, taking control of one-third of Iraq (ancient Babylon), about one-third of Syria and the nation of Libya. These “Assyrians” are of the same ancient people who rose up against Israel over two thousand years ago (Isaiah 52:4). It is incredible to see these Islamic terrorists conquering so much territory in the Middle East, but not one of the great nations have waged a serious attack against them. Let’s face it, the US could wipe out IS terrorists in no time. (Obama’s decision not to annihilate IS will have to be addressed another time.) South America formed the Union of South American Nations (Spanish: Union de Naciones Suramericanas – UNASUR). The UNASUR Constitutive Treaty entered into force on March 11, 2011, according to en.wikipedia.org, and Argentine President Nestor Kirchner is Secretary General of UNASUR. We see Barack Obama opening borders in the US to merge with Mexico and Canada, after former President George W. Bush, Mexico’s President Fox and Canada’s Prime Minister Martin signed the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (North American Union) in 2005, merging these nations in many more ways than just commerce. The League of Nations was the first attempt at a global governance; backed by the Rockefellers, Carnegies, Fords - the megarich - who control the wealth of the world. The forefathers of these elite families termed the “New World Order” and their descendents still have the same ideology today. The purpose of creating the Council on Foreign Relations was also to facilitate a NWO. The charter of the United Nations was also drafted in San Francisco in 1945. Most of the member nations of the UN are run by dictators. What does America have to do with dictators who kill and oppress their citizens and generally always commit crimes against humanity? It seems “anything goes” in their efforts to form a NWO. The Trilateral Commission was formed by Chase Manhattan’s David Rockefeller and members are among the megabanksters-Bilderberg Group. George H.W. Bush said before Congress, “With few exceptions, the world now stands as one...The world can therefore seize this opportunity to fulfill the long-held promise of a New World Order...We can find meaning and reward by serving some higher purpose than ourselves, a shining purpose, the illumination of a Thousand Points of Light (Illuminati).” The Illuminati is a Luciferian society; they worship satan. Albeit, we can see that, according to the Federation/Unitary States map above (bottom map), the world is just about equally divided still. This map is a reminder of the dream King Nebuchadnezzar had of the world’s future empires, the last empire in particular, represented by two feet mixed with iron and clay (middle photo), which could be described as dictatorial Unitary States and Federations/democracies (Daniel 2:27-34). This visual of the world’s nations points to the Lord’s return for the saints, in accordance with what the Prophet Daniel said after he described the last empire, “You (Nebuchadnezzar) saw (the feet of iron and clay), until a stone was cut out without hands (Christ – the Chief Cornerstone, 1 Peter 2:6), which smote the image upon his feet, that were of iron and clay, and broke them to pieces” Daniel 2:34. The prophetic message here is that when we see the last empire (of iron and clay) described by the Prophet Daniel, the Lord will return to “break them to pieces.” Only those who are with Christ will be spared when this ancient prophecy is fulfilled! Whose side are you on?

“Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot…thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed” Luke 17:28-30 – (Part 2)

You may remember that in August 2013, the newsletter for that month included the same title, Luke 17:28-30. A year and a-half ago, the US Supreme Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act, and dismissed Proposition 8, ruling that those who appealed the California Supreme Court’s decision to strike down the law protecting traditional marriage do not have legal standing. So, God’s definition of marriage was thrown out of our nation, and an immoral, evil definition was upheld. That doesn’t have too much bearing on God’s people, except that we have to live in the environment, until the Lord returns; but the following urgent news has an affect on many of God’s children who remain in public schools today. I am going to share some events that have taken place over the last several years, which have gradually culminated to the abomination we see before us today. On April 27, 2005, a Lexington, MA, father was arrested for “trespassing” at his son’s elementary school, as he objected to the school’s curriculum promoting homosexuality in his son’s kindergarten class! After spending the night in jail, the father stood before the judge stating his protest. Judge Wolf told Mr. Parker, “You may have to consider extracting your child from the public school system.” He further suggested a couple of alternatives to him, “Either place your son in private school, or homeschool him.” Those were wise statements made by Judge Wolf in 2005, but we probably wouldn’t hear it from the bench today. In fact, Obama’s “Common Core” agenda is to start sex education in kindergarten! The objectives are lewd, X-rated, seductive and abominable. In 2013, a prolife organization was outraged when they discovered X-rated “sex education” curriculum being taught in public schools to 10-year-olds! They wrote an ad in protest to publish in the New York Times and Washington Post. Albeit, both news media sources refused to publish their ad, which included the “sex education” curriculum, for the stated reason that the material was “too graphic” and “shocking” for their readers! This was in response Planned Parenthood’s “sex education” curriculum. The federal government has contracted with Planned Parenthood to provide their form of “sex education” in the public schools. Yes, the multibillion dollar dismembering, saline burning, unborn baby torturers! What a conflict of interest that is! On one hand, they are presenting X-rated sexually explicit curriculum to little school children; and on the other hand, when these children become pregnant, they are standing right there with an immediate solution – LET US KILL IT FOR YOU! The feds have passed legislation to facilitate this agenda. If a girl enrolled in public school becomes pregnant, the school will shuttle the girl – without the parent’s knowledge or permission – to get an abortion during school hours! Now, I am going to give you the most recent and most abominable news yet: In November 2014, parents were mistakenly shown the teacher’s “sex education” curriculum for 5^th graders (10-year-olds!) on a report card pickup day at Waters Elementary School in Chicago, IL. The parents were outraged to find that the “sex education” agenda for the 10-year-old children included instructions on the use of “female” condoms, lubrication and homosexual sex – sodomy! (The complete article is located at rt.com/usa/206311-chicago-5thgraders-sex-ed-anal) I am thoroughly disgusted and embarrassed to disseminate this news in this edition of the February newsletter, but I have to obey the Lord, rather than succumb to my sense of modesty and morality, and get this urgent message to God’s people – a warning to extract their children from public schools, and home educate them, or enroll them in Christian schools. The message is this: “...as it was in the days of Lot...” Luke 17:28-30. This is a sign of end times. As Lot fled Sodom (the city named after its prominent sin), the wrath of God was poured out on that wicked city. Jesus said it would be as Lot’s day when He returns! The message for God’s people today is also: “Come out from among them and be ye separate, saith the Lord...” 2 Corinthians 6:17. This sin being introduced into the minds of little children is described as an “abomination” before God (Leviticus 18:22). It is a pivotal time for God’s people to take drastic measures for the sake of the hearts, minds and very souls of their children, and pray for a way to be paved to take your children out of public schools. Nothing is impossible for the Lord, but we must begin the walk by faith. God promised, “He which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the Day of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6. God laid it on my heart to homeschool my son when it seemed impossible at the time, but God made a way when there seemed to be no way, as I stepped out prayerfully by faith. (For more information about my testimony and about home education and public schools, visit the Home Education & American Schools pages of this site). God bless you.

The Harbinger

Jonathan Cahn, a Messianic rabbi, is the pastor of the Jerusalem Center / Beth Israel in Wayne, New Jersey. The Lord gave Jonathan a revelation of how the ancient Shemitah (seventh sabbatical year) reveals the fulfillment of prophecy in America today, as it did in ancient Israel. I heard about his best selling book, The Harbinger, when it was released in 2012; but since I always have a stack of about four to six books I haven’t read yet, I put off purchasing it. When Jonathan appeared as a guest speaker at Perry Stone’s 2014 Prophetic Summit, I heard him speak about The Harbinger mystery and I decided I had to purchase the book. I wasn’t disappointed. The book is written in story fashion, but all of the prophetic elements within the story are absolutely true and astonishing. Two years prior to the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers, Jonathan had a foreboding about the towers and World Trade Center. He gathered with other Christians to pray at Ellis Island, as he sensed a possible terrorist attack at that location. Jonathan’s future wife, Renata, cancelled an appointment she had at the WTC at the last moment on the day of the attacks. After the terrorist attacks, Jonathan did some research, as he was led of the Lord, and through strikingly parallel events which happened on the exact same day (the Shemitah) to ancient Israel, Jonathan discovered nine harbingers, warnings, given to Israel before their destruction. The same signs are being given to America, on exactly the same day, the ancient Shemitah, which arrives every seven years! Prominent American politicians, even the president, have, word-for-word, reiterated the same defiance as did ancient Israel! Jonathan knew he had to write a book about his discoveries, but he had never authored a book before. As he sat in a North Carolina airport on his way to speak at a Promise Keepers conference, he bowed his head to pray about God’s commission and how he would accomplish it. As he finished praying, he noticed a man sitting next to him, looking at him. The man said, “What’s the word?” Jonathan began witnessing to him. The man was Hubie Synn, a Christian accountant, who also has the gift of prophecy. Synn told David Tyree, a Christian and receiver for the New York Giants, that God was going to “highlight his skills.” Later, at the 2008 Super Bowl, Tyree caught Eli Manning’s pass, pressing the ball against his helmet. This move became an internet sensation and Tyree’s catch has been dubbed “the greatest play in Super Bowl history.” As Jonathan and Hubie witnessed to one another, Hubie suddenly began to prophesy over Jonathan. He told Jonathan that he had written a very important book and “God is about to do something big.” Hubie then referred Jonathan to Steve Strang, founder of Charisma Media, who also published Tyree’s book, More Than Just a Catch. People in the world today do not want to hear about prophetic warnings, but Jonathan said he is motivated by love to write and speak about The Harbinger and Shemitah prophecies. He explained to Sid Roth on his program, It’s Supernatural, “If you see people who are in danger of calamity and you don’t warn them, and you say nice things to them and make them feel good, that’s not love. If you love them, you will sound the alarm. You will plead with them and you will do everything you can, even if it costs you, to get them saved. That’s what love is.” About 2,700 years ago, God gave ancient Israel a specific warning, along with nine signs of things to come, if they did not repent and return to Him. The same harbingers of destruction are reappearing in America. In 732 BC, after God warned Israel through the prophets to repent to no avail, God removed His hedge of protection and allowed his enemies to invade Israel, as another warning, in that complete destruction had not come to Israel yet. The Prophet Isaiah recorded Israel’s defiance to this warning, “The bricks have fallen down, but we will rebuild with hewn stones; the sycamores are cut down, but we will replace them with cedars” Isaiah 9:10. Prophetically, but without realizing what he was doing, Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle read Isaiah 9:10 on September 12, 2001! The harbingers continued against ancient Israel, as warnings, in that God is longsuffering and not willing that any should perish. In like manner, America’s hedge of protection was removed during the 9/11 terror attacks. America’s leaders also responded, not with repentance and humility, but with the exact same words of defiance. America is in a heap of trouble, but each one of us individually has a choice to separate ourselves from the judgment of God. The Bible says, “...Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” 2 Corinthians 6:2. God bless you.

The Antichrist Beheads People Near the End of Days (Revelation 20:4)

Most of us have noticed the Islamic uprisings throughout the world in the last decade. It is horrific and I sincerely regret photos such as these displayed in this month’s newsletter, but they are necessary in getting the message across. We are truly living in the last days, friends and family. There has never been a time like this in recent history. In fact, Christians not only recognize Bible prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes, but notable personalities in the world are speaking Biblical fact – without even realizing it. Mohammed Elibiary, one of Obama’s Department of Homeland Security advisors, “tweeted,” “America is an Islamic country.” He was also recently quoted as saying, “It is inevitable that the Caliphate (Islamic world dictatorship) returns.” Barack Hussein Obama has not denied the statements published by his DHS advisor. Any real US president would. As Christian families, including their children, are being beheaded in Iraq and Syria, any real US president would quickly denounce such heinous crimes and wage all out war against the vicious terrorists. Obama hasn’t even spoken out against the slaughter of Christians and children! Actually, Barack Hussein Obama is responsible for arming Syrian rebels who are to blame for the slaughter of Christians in Syria; and he is also responsible, as Commander in Chief, for leaving billions of dollars worth of US tanks and military equipment to ISIS terrorists in Iraq. Obama has been sending millions in cash to Afghan officials in suitcases, backpacks and shopping bags, according to President Hamid Karzai. The New York Times reported the money was used to “buy influence.” How absurd! Everyone knows Muslims can’t be bought. They are allowed to lie in order to deceive “apostates,” according to the Qu’ran. Lying for the good of Islam is called Taqiyya. Obama is not an idiot when it comes to Islam. He was raised a Muslim and he knows exactly what he is doing! If Americans knew their Bible, they would understand what happens to a nation when that nation forsakes God and His commandments. The first thing that happens, before the utter destruction of the nation, is God allows evil rulers to rise to power over such a nation. The same thing happened to Israel, and Ahab and Jezebel are primary examples. God has been very longsuffering with America, since God and prayer were kicked out of US pubic schools in 1963 (Engel v Vitale). He has been very patient waiting for America to repent since the US began slaughtering unborn babies in 1973 (Roe v Wade). God has extended mercy, waiting for America to repent after kicking creation out of public schools and bringing the monkey charts into the schools in 1968 (Epperson v Arkansas). As selective judgment begins to fall on a predominantly ungodly United States, perhaps starting with 9/11, the governing majority in the US have raised their defiant heads and redefined the institution of marriage, which God set in order between a man and a woman (Genesis 2:24), to unions between two women, or two men. This is an abomination in the sight of God (Leviticus 18:22; Romans 1:21-32; 1 Corinthians 6:9). The prophet Daniel and John the Revelator wrote about the antichrist kingdom that will arise in the latter days, before the return of the Lord. Daniel wrote: “He shall enter peaceably (Obama’s first agenda was peace in the Middle East) upon the fattest places of the province (prosperous America?) and he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers (first black president - plundering the US?); he shall scatter among them (the wicked) the prey and spoil and riches (like in giving billions of US dollars to Muslim nations?); yes, he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time” Daniel 11:24. Daniel was told to “seal the book, until the time of the end” (Daniel 12:4); however, John the Revelator revealed much more about the antichrist and he was told to “seal not the prophecy of the book” (Revelation 22:10); because after Christ died and rose again, more of Daniel’s prophecies for the last days could be understood. John saw a global cashless society (Revelation 13:16-18) and he saw saints beheaded for refusing to receive the “mark of the beast (antichrist),” or “worship the image of the beast (Revelation 20:4).” Does this sound outlandish? Many dictators throughout history have done such things, and even still do the same things today. The Czars of Russia were worshiped; Stalin was worshiped; North Koreans are killed if they don’t worship Kim Jong Un; Mao Zedong of China was worshiped as the nation’s “savior;” and the list goes on. Let there be no mistake, hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and we are seeing the “horizon” of the antichrist prophecies come to pass, even upon this nation, not only the Middle East, because he will be a global dictator who beheads people. Are you ready to meet God?    

The Lord said to Abraham, “I will bless those who bless you, and curse him who curses you: and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.”  Genesis 12:3

Have you considered why every major nation in the world is involved with the political and social status of Israel?  It all began when God blessed Abraham and told him to leave the land of his father and go to a land He would give him and his descendents, “And the Lord appeared to Abram and said, ‘Unto your children will I give this land…’” Genesis 12:7.  God led Abraham and his descendents to the land of Canaan and gave it to them, which is the land of Israel today, also known as “Zion.”  They possessed this land, until they were held captive in Egypt for 400 years due to their sin and rebellion (Genesis 15:13).  God graciously delivered them out of Egypt through the leadership of Moses.  They were taken into captivity again by Babylon because of sin and rebellion (Leviticus 26:18) - is God trying to tell us something? Nevertheless, God graciously promised to deliver them again: “Then the LORD your God will turn your captivity, and have compassion upon you, and I will gather you from all the nations, where the LORD your God has scattered you” Deuteronomy 30:3.  After 70 years of captivity in Babylon, the people of Israel remained scattered among many nations, until May 14, 1948, when the prophecy of Deuteronomy 30:3 was fulfilled.  Isaiah the prophet also foretold that Israel would again become a nation in one day, “Who has heard such a thing?  Who has seen such things?  Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day?  Shall a nation be born at once?  As soon as Zion (Israel) travailed, she brought forth her children” Isaiah 66:8.  And bring forth her children she did!  “Operation Magic Carpet” (1949-1950) returned 47,000 Yemeni Jews to Israel; plus 2,000 Aden, Djiboutian and Eritrean Jews were airlifted to Israel.  “Operation Moses” (1984) returned 8,000 Ethiopian Jews to Israel.  “Operation Joshua” (1985) brought an additional 800 Ethiopian Jews back to Israel.  During “Operation Solomon” (1991), Israel transported 14,325 more Ethiopian Jews back to Israel during 36 hours of nonstop flights of 34 Israeli aircraft.  Since the dissolution of the USSR, over one million Soviet Jews have returned to Israel!

Most of the Yemenite Jews had never seen an aircraft before, but they believed in the Biblical prophecy: according to the Book of Isaiah (40:31), God promised to return the Children of Israel to Zion "on wings of eagles".

Before Israel became a nation again, it was a virtual wasteland with hardly any vegetation or production.  Since 1948, prophecies concerning Israel’s growth and prosperity have also been fulfilled, as promised:  “He will cause them that come out of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit” Isaiah 27:6.  Today, Israel exports some of the finest and largest fruits in the world to many nations.  God promised to restore Israel, for he is the Lord’s firstborn:  “…Thus saith the LORD, Israel is my son, even my firstborn” Exodus 4:22.  Do you have children?  Do you have a firstborn?  The Word of God says that, “Many are called, but few are chosen” Matthew 22:14.  God gave His only begotten Son to redeem the sins of the whole world (John 3:16).  God loves us all, but Israel is His chosen.

The Temple Institute (36 Misgav Ladach Street, Jerusalem, Israel 97500) was established in 1987 to restore all of the implements of the Holy Temple and rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem. Paul spoke of the future Temple (II Thessalonians 2:3-4); Jesus referred to the future Temple (Matthew 24:15); and God told Ezekiel how the Temple should be rebuilt in the latter days (Ezekiel 40-42). It is apparent that, according to Bible prophecy, the Temple will be rebuilt in the last days. The Temple Institute in Jerusalem is setting about to do just that and they have already restored over 150 of the sacred vessels, the priests’ garments have been made, and there is a registry of 300,000 Levites available, of which many are currently in training to perform the priestly duties required at the Temple. A peace treaty may be confirmed between the Israelis and Arabs and they could start building the Temple any time; but according to the order of Ezekiel 38-42, I believe the Gog-Magog war will come first.

The use of the shekel has also been restored to Israel, as in the days of old. Ezekiel 45:12 says, “And the shekel...shall be your maneh (currency).” In order for the Jews to bring sacrifices to the future Temple, as commanded by the Lord, it was also necessary that the Jews return to using the shekel as currency (Leviticus 5:15). The Palestinian pound was used until 1952, at which time it was replaced by the Israeli Lira. In 1985, the Israelis began to mint and use shekels as their currency – more Bible prophecy fulfilled in our generation!

There are five primary gates in Jerusalem and to this day, only one gate remains closed. There have been several attempts to open the Eastern Gate, but all efforts to open it have failed. God told Ezekiel, “...This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened...it is for the Prince...He shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate...” Ezekiel 44:1-3; thus, it remains closed, until He returns. Are you prepared for the Lord’s return? He will come as a thief in the night (I Thessalonians 5:2).
