Grand Master turns up the heat on Jerusalem


Grand Master turns up heat on Jerusalem

Address of the Grand Master to the Diplomatic Corps
Rome, 9 January 2007

His Most Eminent Highness the Prince and Grand Master,
Fra' Andrew BERTIE
SOVEREIGN MILITARY ORDER OF MALTA

I will visit the Holy Land during 2007 within the framework of an international pilgrimage that I will be carrying out next October.

In this spirit I would like to recall the various observations which have been made over the years with regard to the problem of the Holy Places, and in particular the position of the Holy See in relation to Jerusalem. A city of three religions, it is at the same time a land of two peoples, Jews and Palestinians, as well as a World Heritage centre. Pilgrims from all over the world must be able to have access to it. It should thus be given a special, internationally guaranteed statute.

The Sovereign Order of Malta, for whom the protection of the Holy Places has always been an absolute priority in its mission in the service of the Church and in its hospitaller and humanitarian activities, is at the disposal of governments to help seek any kind of solution, bearing in mind the aspirations and legitimate interests of the different populations involved.

This is because Jerusalem must be a permanent place for seeking peace and reconciliation between religions, peoples and cultures. [Emphasis mine]

The cauldron that is Jerusalem is having the heat turned up by a series of planned events, the concerted efforts of Roman wolves in sheep's clothing, orchestrated by the Vatican. The Roman Catholic Cult, the Babylonian Mystery religion, covets the Holy City and aims on wresting control of Ariel (Jerusalem's nickname) from Israeli sovereignty by any means necessary. The Time of Jacob's Trouble is brewing in the North.

Due to the inexcusable increase in Israeli sins, especially their rejection of the miracle of 1967 -- the Six Day War that liberated Jerusalem and its biblical territories from Arab occupation, namely Judaism's holiest site, the Temple Mount -- and because so many Israelis tolerated the intolerable expulsion of Jews from their homes in Gush Katif and Shomron rather than return to God and remove the threat of sworn Arab enemies, the Great Creator God of Jacob-Israel will permit the King of the North (the imminent wannabe divine emperor elect by the German-Jesuits) to have his way with Israel, to pollute His Holy Land and stomp Jerusalem with his filthy EU jackboot for three and a half years -- a signature act that God has so decreed it (Dan. 12:7).

Jeremiah 1:13-16

13 And the word of the LORD came to me the second time, saying, "What do you see?"

And I said, "I see a boiling pot, and it is facing away from the north."

14 Then the LORD said to me:

"Out of the north calamity shall break forth

On all the inhabitants of the land.

15 For behold, I am calling

All the families of the kingdoms of the north," says the LORD;

"They shall come and each one set his throne

At the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem,


Against all its walls all around,

And against all the cities of Judah.

16 I will utter My judgments

Against them concerning all their wickedness,

Because they have forsaken Me,

Burned incense to other gods,

And worshiped the works of their own hands.

Israel's election of the bought and paid for foreign interest party, the rotten to the core Kadima party of prostitutes and criminals, proved Israel was intent on going backwards, dead set on digging themselves in deeper, rather than going forward (as Kadima means "forward" in Hebrew, twisted purposely in true Luciferian style - Isa. 5:20) to get out of their national mess:

Jeremiah 7:23-24

23 But this is what I commanded them, saying, 'Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people. And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.' 24 Yet they did not obey or incline their ear, but followed the counsels and the dictates of their evil hearts, and went backward and not forward.

Both Torah-observant Jews and Christian Zionists warned Israelis against Kadima and encouraged them to remember the Land Covenant to keep it (it's the Promised Land of Israel). Men and women of faith implored Israelis to refuse to surrender to post-Zionist forces who would continue to dismember the Jewish Homeland to forge an accursed "Palestine" that would ultimately burn every Jew.

The Grand Master, quoted above, is thinly veiling his references to UN Resolution 181. It's been laying in wait all these years, like the secret Nazis -- both about to come back with a vengeance!

Catholic Europe is determined to restore their Royals to dormant thrones and revive the "Holy Roman Empire" with its crown: the Crusader-Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Treacherous Jews, UNJews, apostate Jews, aid and abet those who would undermine Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem. Forces within and without the Holy Land are driven to help Rome fulfill its grand design and pave the way to transfer Israel's most prized possession, its priceless crown jewel -- the Temple Mount -- to the Vatican. Mt. Zion is already under siege, as they seek to secure a foothold to breach the Holy City.

The glorious good news, our glimmer of hope in this growing world of darkness, is that Two Witnesses will rise and shine and testify in occupied Jerusalem and face the nations and address Israel's captive audience -- in the spirit of Elijah -- and give hope and comfort that our God will come and save us. The unholy alliance between Ahab (Israelites and Jews) and Jezebel (Roman Catholic Cult) will soon be history, as we're assured its days are numbered.

Connie Fogal sets the record straight about the SPP

Beyond Babylon ^ | 01-26-07 | Connie Fogal

Barbara Yaffe is completely out of touch with the reality when she says, "The checks and balances are in the parliamentary system." It is not our Parliamentary system that is in play here. This is a shadow government of live people who are usurping our Parliament without any check or balance. They are reshaping Canada, Mexico, and the USA under US dominance into a North American entity that is to be governed by unelected panels and tribunals with no accountability to the people. They intend to operate completely outside the reach of national legal systems and national constitutions. There is to be no democratic process and no sovereignty.

Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Ishmael

Abraham has many descendants and most are British-Israelites and Jews, besides Arabs. However only the British-Israelite and Jews are direct descendants of ISAAC - the legitimate heir. Ishmael was sent away and his covetous, lying, thieving, murderous descendants who occupy parts of the Jewish Homeland needs to be sent away again.

Genesis 25:5-6

5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac. 6 But Abraham gave gifts to the sons of the concubines which Abraham had; and while he was still living he sent them eastward, away from Isaac his son, to the country of the east.

Israel must submit to the Word and Will of God and remove the Ishmaelites again, as they've proven necessary time and again.

Abraham's attempt at "peaceful coexistence" has been a miserable failure, represented by the likes of Shimon Peres and his criminal Kadima company for all the wrong reasons - unlike Abraham who meant well:

Shimon Peres has No Clothes: Where's the Peace?

Sarah's divine wisdom to expel Ishmael must be followed or Israel will suffer the consequences:

The Two Witnesses of Revelation 11

The Two Witnesses will offer hope and comfort to our captive audience, the Jewish and Israelite peoples under the German-Jesuit jackboot. The Two Witnesses will help prepare Judah for the prophesied repentance that will welcome Yeshua to return and liberate Jerusalem from the European Beast and European False Prophet who will pollute the holy Temple upon the Temple Mount.

Jews to receive Jesus as Israel's King!

Jews to receive Jesus as Israel's King!
by David Ben-Ariel

Is there strong indication in the Bible that Israel will have a change of heart and accept Yeshua because of the preaching of two prophets in Jerusalem, the Two Witnesses announced in Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11? Will the Jews grasp Jesus is the Anointed One, the Lamb and Lion of God, and finally convert?

Yes! There is definite proof of such as Yeshua clearly said He wouldn't return to Jerusalem, Judah or the Jews until they have a change of heart and welcome Him. The Two Witnesses, in the power and spirit of Elijah (who is dead and buried and awaits the First Resurrection), will prepare the way by preparing our people to receive our King!

Matthew 23:39

39 for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!'

Zechariah the prophet foresees such a long-awaited repentance and recognition! The Jews in Jerusalem will perceive that the Pierced One is the Firstborn of Judah and the Firstborn of God -- our King Messiah!

Zechariah 12:10-15

10 "And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn. 11 In that day there shall be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning at Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo. 12 And the land shall mourn, every family by itself: the family of the house of David [political establishment] by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves; 13 the family of the house of Levi [religious establishment] by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of Shimei by itself, and their wives by themselves; 14 all the families that remain, every family by itself, and their wives by themselves.

Yeshua, first and foremost, is the King of the Jews, the King of Israel (all Twelve Tribes of Israel). Yeshua is coming back specifically to keep alive God's physical promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and our Israelite forefathers who left Egypt: the iron-clad promise that the Fathers will always have some survivors, some physical remnant, beyond any shadow of a doubt.

The cities of Judah will hear this message loud and clear:

Matthew 24:22

22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

Romans 11:28

28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.

Leviticus 26:44-45

44 Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, nor shall I abhor them, to utterly destroy them and break My covenant with them; for I am the LORD their God.

45 But for their sake I will remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.

We are the physical elect, the physical Chosen People -- primarily the British-Israelites and Jews, Joseph and Judah -- for whose sakes' those days will be cut short by divine intervention or we would all be history and Satan could say God is a liar. But God's Word is good and true and He will prepare our people by a baptism of repentance by the Two Witnesses, speaking to our captive audience from Jerusalem (having been conquered by the German-Jesuit EU), giving us the GOOD NEWS that our personal lord and NATIONAL SAVIOR, our NATIONAL DELIVERER, is coming soon to save us.

It is this glorious GOOD NEWS that I share within the first chapter of Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall, appropriately called: "Survival Guaranteed!"

Shimon Peres Came to Power Over Rabin's Dead Body

Shimon Peres Came to Power Over Rabin's Dead Body

Hitler Will Judge Us!

Hitler Will Judge Us!

Silence = Death

We must plead on behalf of the innocent, and be the voice of those without adequate representation. The greatest crime against humanity is going on now! Yet millions of professing Christians look the other way in shameful silence: ABORTION! It used to be a country’s worst enemies who ripped up their pregnant women—now we’ve turned on ourselves. Don't abort our future: Think twice, choose life, let love grow.

Defend life: present the case of the preborn before the public, and rescue them from the abortionist’s kangaroo court. We’ve sacrificed our children on the altars of convenience, baptized our babies in blood, and trashed their grisly remains—if they haven’t been sold for Nazi experiments. Where’s the moral outrage been? Why haven’t we demanded that our government intervene? Stop the slaughter!

God sees the bloodbath we’re permitting. He knows the hard hearts, calloused consciences, and dishonest individuals that are involved and will bring them to trial: "Shall I not punish them for these things? says the LORD. And shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?" (Jer. 5:9). No wonder God’s going to allow our German-Jesuit enemies to be so cruel!

HITLER Will Judge Us!

Hitler’s Nazi Germany will rise up in judgment against our hypocritical nations! We condemned them and now we’re acting worse than they did! We didn’t buy their lame excuses of ignorance or blind obedience, and yet today we try to hide our horrors behind "it’s the law of the land."

We allow DEATH CLINICS in major cities, and support those mad doctors who ought to be tried for murder. We condemned those German businesses who became rich at others expense, and yet our land is filled with the abortionists' BLOOD MONEY! It’s not a God-given right to take the life of your child.

That some would argue it’s not a baby, and others attempt to justify this carnage…. It’s obvious we’re under a CURSE if we can’t even think straight! Our Puritan ancestors properly discerned, “Whom God would destroy, He first sends mad” (Deut. 28:28). God save us from ourselves...

Martin Luther King Day?

Martin Luther King Day?

by David Ben-Ariel

I had a letter published in The Blade (Toledo, Ohio) and sent to President Reagan, pleading with him not to commit the folly of creating any foolish "Martin Luther King Day." Our fellow black Americans, generally speaking, still hated President Reagan after the fact and still don't practice the good things (there were some good things) King preached.

If we're to be judged by the content of our character rather than the color of our skin, why continue to demand quotas and curves and tolerate such racist organizations as the NAACP?

Why doesn't somebody do a documentary on those humble folk marching back then (with their useful idiot whites, too many liberal Jews) with a split screen exposing "niggas with attitude" (a black phrase), the rampant crime, outrageous rates of illegitimacy, unemployment by choice, gangs, welfare projects, black on black violence (not to mention assault on others), the "menace to society" mentality (another black phrase, thanks to excellent director Albert Hughes), disproportionate black prison population and the verbal lynching concerned blacks suffer mercilessly when they dare speak out against such inexcusable poverty of the spirit and moral degradation, slavery to sin and self-destruction?

It is appropriate on this black holiday (and that's what it amounts to, in all honesty), to consider this issue of race from a biblical perspective that those horribly brainwashed by the politically correct cult hate with a passion and rage against in vile anarchist fashion, drowning out any reason and voice other than their own.

Regardless, this biblical truth must be shared, must be made known, while we still have the freedom to exercise our God-given rights of speech and religion.

Is interracial marriage wrong? Did God intend for the races to be separate? Did God divide the nations to preserve distinct family ties?

The plain truth is made known in Race Matters.

Oprah Curses Her Critics from South Africa

Oprah Curses Her Critics from South Africa

Oprah Winfrey: "I say to the critics, be damned. Be damned because you don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Oprah can do as she pleases with her money, or the money her predominantly white audience sends her for her pet projects, even if it includes "keeping a promise" to open a school for girls only that she made to that smooth talking terrorist in a suit and tie, Nelson Mandela (who is on record, singing about killing white people, didn't Oprah know that?) who was released from prison on condition he didn't enter politics (even though he should have hanged as a gun smuggling traitor -- didn't Oprah know that?).

Oprah's school for girls feeds the feminist beast that bellows women are the future salvation of the world. Oprah has mainly taken black girls from poor South African neighborhoods, which is her prerogative, but she shows her inexcusable ignorance about apartheid when she blames it for their level of poverty (it's been over for years Oprah and blacks from the rest of Africa clamored to get into South Africa under apartheid for economic advantages!).

Does Oprah blame apartheid for the poverty of those white girls turned away from her school because of their color? Sounds like Miss Oprah is just exposing more of the double-standard blacks get away with too often and don't like it when called on it. Shame.

Joseph Hoover

Halleluyah! There is a God. I was contacted yesterday, after years of prayer, with further information on my Hoover family line that appeared to have stopped with ABRAHAM HOOVER (who allegedly ran off with the maid from Risingsun, Ohio to Ligonere, Indiana, possibly meeting up with his son John Henry Hoover and his family).

Abraham Hoover was born in 1834 in Pennsylvania, brother of Jacob Hoover (born 1846), sons of JOHN HOOVER.

John Hoover died July 25, 1869 Seneca County, Ohio. John Hoover was the son of Joseph Hoover.

JOSEPH HOOVER was born 1811 Sweden, died 1896 Seneca County Ohio, buried in Bradner Cemetery, Rt. 23, Bradner, Ohio.

So Joseph Hoover is my Great-Great-Great-Great Grandfather. :-)

MOUNT EPHRAIM – NEWSLETTER

The following is written by one of our British brethren, Stephen Spykerman. Other than myself, sad to say, he's the only Church of God member I've ever seen express in writing any heartfelt interest in "the cities of Judah." Is God now directing more hearts to focus on Jerusalem? I sincerely hope and pray so!

For Zion's sake,

David Ben-Ariel
***************

MOUNT EPHRAIM – NEWSLETTER

by Stephen Spykerman

NO: 4 - THURSDAY, 21ST DECEMBER 2006

Dear Friends,

THE TIMING WAS NOT RIGHT FOR OUR MOVE TO ISRAEL!
It is just over ten months since I last wrote to you all, and it certainly has been a most eventful time for our family. To start with we did not move permanently to Israel as planned because our heavenly Abba showed us through a whole set of incredible circumstances that it was not the right time for us to go. Although He did not say ‘never’ it was just a ‘not yet’ type of answer. Instead we ended up moving to Shaftesbury in Dorset. Our new address is: The Coach House 2 Woodmans Court Shaftesbury Dorset SP7 8PY Tel 0044 (0)1747 853131.

Shaftesbury is an ancient Saxon hilltop town, which was once the royal seat of King Alfred the Great. Our new house is in fact the gatehouse to 12 other properties at the rear. These 12 houses can only be accessed through our archway, and we rather like the association it congers up with the 12 tribes of Israel.

A MESSAGE FROM A FRIEND
Just a few days ago I received a memo from Steve Collins a good friend and fellow author on the tribes of Israel. He asked how things were faring with my work, and he kindly offered to link his new website with mine. This forced me to write to him to explain that I don’t have my own website as yet, although it is in the planning stage. At the same time I let him know that my manuscript has not yet been published, and I felt I owed him an explanation as to why it has not happened. The fact is that most authors in our field self publish their material usually from their own resources, and thus the question is, why have I not done the same thing?

THE COVENANT I MADE WITH MY HEAVENLY FATHER
When I first started to write, I made a covenant with my Father in Heaven that He would provide the funds to publish the work on the grounds that it was His work and not mine to bring the tribes of Israel back to the Land of promise. Ever since I have been bound by that covenant, and it surely has been a severe test of faith for me, especially so, because all my life up to that time I had always done pretty well everything in my own strength. Thus eight years ago I used this covenant as a way to bind myself to doing things His way and not the way of my old man.

OUR MESSAGE GOT INTO THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT
Nevertheless, Father has given me a few minor successes along the way, in that I was especially commissioned to write a booklet specifically addressed to the leaders of Great Britain. The booklet was to contain a message about Britain's Israelite ancestry and calling as a nation, as well as to warn her about the folly of her involvement in the European Union. Some 5,000 glossy beautifully illustrated booklets were printed, of which some 1,750 were placed in the hands of every Member of the House of Lords and the House of Commons in the British Parliament. The individually addressed envelopes containing the booklets were delivered by hand into parliamentary mailrooms on the Eve of Hanukkah 2004. The irony of this date is that the message about the hidden ancestry of the British people were delivered to Parliament exactly 87 years to the very day from the date of the liberation of Jerusalem on the Eve of Hanukkah in 1917, when General Allenby led his British and Anzac's troops into the Holy City.

A SIGN THAT ELOHIM USES FAMILIES
A further God-incident was that the inside man in the House of Lords who helped facilitate all of this was a descendant of this same general e.g. Lord Michael Allenby of Megiddo, whom I had befriended in previous years. It is a clear sign that our loving Father likes to use righteous families down the generations.

THE MESSAGE GOES TO BUCKINGHAM PALACE!
The booklet with its accompanying letter was also sent to Her Majesty the Queen, Prince Phillip and Prince Charles, as well as to the Archbishop of Canterbury, and many other Bishops and religious leaders up and down the country. As the message went to the leaders of the nation it had to be a work executed in high quality paper with full colour illustrations on every page, plus a most attractive cover. The booklet was called "GREAT BRITAIN Her Calling and Hidden Ancestry." It obviously cost quite a lot of money to do this, as the booklets were literally given away. Hundreds of copies were mailed to influential people outside the immediate parliamentary circle. The miracle is that all of this did not cost me a single cent, as everything was paid for by a most generous sponsor sent from above. I can honestly say that it greatly encouraged me at the time, and it strengthened my faith in the covenant I had made with my loving Father in heaven.

A NEW COMMISSION
Then last year I was asked to write a similar booklet to be directed at the leaders of America. The idea being that we repeat the same exercise by getting the message of America's hidden ancestry to the Members of both the Houses of Congress and the Senate, as well to the President, his Cabinet, White House Staff, and the Members of the fifty State Legislatures in the United States. Once again the funds were provided for the graphic design, and within the space of three months a magnificent lavishly illustrated booklet was ready for print, under the title of: "WHO ARE YOU AMERICA? Time to Lift your Prophetic veil!" The only problem was that we only had enough money left over to print just one hundred copies. Hence for the past eighteen months I have been using those master copies as a most precious form of seed corn, and have handed them out most sparingly.

OUR NEW BOOKLET GOT INTO THE WHITE HOUSE!
One thing I do know is that President George W Bush has been given at least one copy, possibly two. On a visit to Jerusalem last year I just so happened by another God incident to meet two people who just happened to have a close relative work at senior level in the White House. One of those was a prayer partner of the president who regularly participated in the presidential prayer breakfast. They each offered to get one of my booklets onto the Presidents desk. However, to date Abba has not seen fit to open the doors into America for this specially designed booklet containing His message about the Israelite heritage of the American people. My earnest hope is that day will come soon, as by now I have barely 20 booklets left.

THE PROPHETS OF OLD ALWAYS WENT TO THE LEADERS OF THE NATION
Having studied the lives of the prophets in the Bible, I noted that they invariably addressed their prophetic messages, exhortations, and warnings to the leaders of the nation, be it Israel, Judah, or both. The plain fact is that Our Heavenly Creator always held the leaders of His nation Israel primarily responsible for the conduct of His people. We know from the Scriptures that YHVH does not change, as the Word says; He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. For this reason I feel it is important that we follow the same principle and pattern today.

This is not to say that I would dare call myself a prophet, as I would not presume to equate myself with those great men. Nevertheless this does not mean that we cannot learn from those prophets, as I believe in going to the leaders of their nations in their day, they set an important example for us to follow in our time. For this reason I believe that the message of our extraordinary Israelite heritage must first of all go to the leaders of our nations. Following on from this principle it occurred to me last year that our message about the whereabouts of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel should also go to the leaders of Judah in the State of Israel. In fact there are a number of Orthodox friends; including several influential Rabbi's who have earnestly urged me to have the "WHO ARE YOU AMERICA? Booklet translated into Hebrew. They would like to see it placed in the hands of all Members of the Knesset, and Rabbi's in Israel, thus covering both secular and religious leadership of the nation. Now I think we have quite a precedent here! They are inviting me, a believer in Messiah Yeshua, to do this thing. Surely, this is unprecedented!

THE MESSAGE SIMPLY HAS TO GO TO JUDAH
Getting our message to the leaders of Judah does have tremendous appeal, and it does also resonate somewhat with the Word which states that, 'the Word of the LORD shall go forth from Zion!' The question in my mind is; does this WORD GOING FORTH FROM ZION INCLUDE HIS PROPHETIC WORD TO THE TRIBES OF ISRAEL? The Bible appears to answer with a big YES! After all, it is the Jews who have preserved the Scriptures for us, and it is fair to say therefore that all the Scriptures have come to us from Zion. Clearly the Torah, the Prophets, the Writings, yes, and even the New Testament all came to us from Zion! Did not our beloved Saviour, Yeshua the Messiah of Israel, the King of the Jews, also not commission and send out His disciples from Zion with His Gospel of the Kingdom? Did His Apostles also not take His Kingdom Gospel message from Zion to the uttermost parts of the world?

THE KEY OF DAVID
In getting our message about the identity and whereabouts of Judah's lost prodigal Israelite brothers to the leadership of Judah we may well be unlocking the key of David, which will finally enable the call to the Tribes of Israel to go forth from Zion.

That call is for the Tribes to recognize their Israelite origins and return to the Land of their Fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I strongly feel that Judah, hard pressed as she is, by murderous enemies on all sides needs to know who and where her long lost Israelite brothers are. I believe that once the message has broken in Judah it will flow from Zion into our lands.

JUDAH HOLDS THE KEY
Judah is the key to the tribes coming back to Israel, as the Jewish State at the moment does not permit non Jews to settle in the land. At the moment Christians, who want to settle in Israel can do so only with a three month visa. Many thousands of dedicated believers have lived in the land for many years, whilst having to leave the country every three months, only to re-enter the land on a new three months permit. If the State of Israel could be made aware that these Christians are in fact Ephraimites, true descendants of Jacob from the Lost House of Israel, it may be willing to change the entry rules for those of us who want to return to the Land of our Fathers. In fact some of my rabbinical friends have already set up a small Orthodox pressure group to try to influence certain members of the Knesset in the Israeli government to make entry for the true friends of Israel a lot easier. They are attempting to persuade the Israeli government to relax the entry rules by granting Christian Ephraimites five year residential permits.

If this were to happen, according to some estimates, well over a 100,000 American Ephraimites would immediately commence their arrangements to emigrate to Israel, with many more from other Israelite nations joining them. They would come not like impoverished refugees, as they would bring all their not inconsiderable wealth with them to make a new home in the Land of their Patriarchal Fathers. What starts as a trickle is bound to soon become a flood, and thus before our very eyes we would witness the fulfillment of all those prophesies concerning the return of Ephraim e.g. the House of Israel in preparation of the ultimate reunification of the two sticks/trees of Judah and Joseph. (Ezekiel 37: 19-28 & Zechariah 10:6-8).

THE FOURTH ARAB ISRAEL WAR IS NOW IMMINENT
Frankly, you don't have to be a prophet to realize that another Arab-Israel war in the Middle East is now absolutely inevitable. The next war is described in great detail in Psalm 83 where David prophesies: "They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, and consulted together against Your sheltered ones. They have said, "Come let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more." For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You!" (Psalm 83:3-5).

Since the foundation of the State of Israel this prophecy has already been fulfilled on three occasions, respectively in the 1948 War of Independence, the Six Day War of 1967, and the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Each time with Divine help Israel has emerged victorious, even though in the 1973 Yom Kippur War it was a very close run thing for the new nation.

Yet, when you read the account in the Book of Amos in chapter one you will note that when those same conspirators attack Israel for the FOURTH time YHVH will not turn away His punishment and His awesome wrath will utterly astonish the whole world. Amos chapter two makes it clear that both the nation of Judah and the nation of Israel will be punished at the same time. I believe in the case of Judah this will mean massive Jewish casualties, especially in the Tel Aviv/Haifa coastal areas. In the case of the House of Israel the Bible indicates massive economic fall-out from this now imminent Fourth Arab-Israel War.

A NUCLEAR WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST?
This war clearly is now at the door and we also need to realize that it almost certainly will go nuclear! I believe 2007 is going to see the war described in Isaiah 17, which, with prophetic certainty states that; "Damascus shall become a ruinous heap!" Can we even begin to imagine what the effects will be when Judah, with her back against the wall facing certain defeat, is forced to use her nuclear weapons against Damascus in order to prevent total annihilation? I believe that YHVH has a fourfold purpose with this next war.

YHVH’S FOURFOLD PURPOSE WITH THE COMING WAR
1st. To humble His people by administering correction to Judah. (Amos 2:4-5).

2nd. To bring to pass the first phase of His awesome judgments upon Islam, and the enemies of His people.

3rd. To bring to pass the second phase of His eternal covenant with Abraham in which He promised all the land between the Nile and the Euphrates to his descendants. This is outlined by the prophet Isaiah as follows: "To enlarge the place of Israel's tent, and to stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; do not spare; lengthen your chords, and strengthen your stakes. For you shall expand to the right and to the left, and your descendants will inherit the nations, and make the desolate cities inhabited." (Isaiah 34:2-3).

4th. As the State of Israel, in direct consequence of this war, annexes all of Southern Lebanon, nearly 90% of Syria, plus Gaza and all of the West Bank, and maybe a piece of Jordan to boot, she will be at least partially fulfilling the Divine plan to make room for the progressive return and settlement of her prodigal brothers of the House of Israel.

What a time this will be! What promise we have in the year that lies ahead of us! When we see it all happening before us on our T.V. screens, those of us who are looking to the establishment of His Kingdom, can then truly exclaim, WE LIVE IN THE DAWN OF THE AGE OF MESSIAH!!!!

WATCHMAN AND INTERCESSOR ARISE AND BE COUNTED
Yet, understanding all of this we cannot just sit there and wait for it all to happen. Now is the time for the watchman and the intercessor to arise and be counted as never before. For some of us it is also a time of action. Those of us who have had our eyes opened to understand these things do need to get our message about the whereabouts and identity of Joseph to the leaders of Judah before the war occurs. It will be a huge comfort to her to know that her tribal brothers have been found and that they are a hugely powerful people. My problem is that I am only a one man band, and I cannot do this job without help and the necessary resources. I do recognize of course that Abba, the Holy One of Israel, is my helper and the provider of all my needs, yet I also realize that invariably He uses ordinary people like you and me to accomplish His purpose.

THE ELUSIVENESS OF SUCCESS
In January last year I went to Jerusalem with the express purpose of getting our booklet translated into Hebrew. I had been given to understand that there were at least three suitable people who might be able to do the translation. Soon after my arrival I discovered that the first two individuals had fallen away. This left me with one individual well known to me, and I had the personal recommendation of his Rabbi to boot. Some friends of mine however expressed doubts about his ability. My mistake was that I did not consult Abba about this objection, but decided that I would have him sign a contract containing certain safeguards. As it turned out, when I had his test paper checked it proved unsatisfactory. Sadly his work was simply not fit for purpose, as we are planning to send our material to the top echelons of Israeli society, nothing but a work of excellence will suffice. I had learned a painful lesson.

TREADING WATER
This past year the work has simply lain dormant, and I felt I was treading water. Nevertheless, I felt a great peace about it as I realized it was just not quite the right timing in Father’s purpose.

All of sudden in the last few months a new urgency has arisen, and once again we are set to visit Israel on the 15th January for a ten day trip together with my wife Virginia. Although the primary purpose for the trip is to participate in a 'Sanctification' course in close proximity to the Palestinian territories, I sense that there is another reason why our presence is required, and I am led to expect Divine appointments whilst we are in the land. I have a sense that maybe this time around the correct translator will present himself to me on this trip. It will surely be a milestone for this work, and my prayer is that you pray our visit maybe crowned with success. Another important thing we want to do next year is to set up a brand-new website probably utilizing our existing domain of jerusalemcalling.com, as we wish the call to go out to the Tribes of Israel from the Holy City urging them to return to Zion. (Jeremiah 31:6).

Wishing you many blessings in Yeshua our soon coming Messiah,
