MY NAME IS TOM TRENTO AND…I DON’T WANT TO "SLAUGHTER JEWS."
Liberal Jews in America that lean on the Democratic Party and Obama’s agenda to create a Jew-hating state called Palestine are literally setting Israel up for a Jewish genocide that will exceed the Nazi Holocaust of WWII.
One example of those Liberal Jewish Democrats is Mark Alan Siegel Chairman of the Dem Party of Palm Beach, FL. Siegel is so virulently Land for peace that will destroy Israel that he is publically putting out there that Christian Zionists (Siegel calls them fundamentalists) want Jews to be slaughtered in Israel so the return of the Christian Messiah will return.
That is the ludicrous cheap propaganda that Jewish Democrats are dumping on American Jews to get them to vote for President Barack Hussein Obama.
Here is how I learned about this fool from The United West and Tom Trento.

Obama’s Foreign Policy is Unfavorable to Israel
John R. Houk
© August 17, 2012
Caroline Glick has written an essay that begins with the U.S. Foreign Policy debacle of doing nothing to keep Mao Zedong (Mao Tse Dung) from his Communist conquest of China. Mao wrested control of the Chinese government from the Nationalist government of Chiang Kai-Chek who ended up fleeing to Formosa (Today’s Taiwan).
Glick compares Mao’s usurpation of power in China to allowing the Muslim Brotherhood Islamist President Mohamed Morsi of winning a close Egyptian election. Glick reports that Egyptian military authorities and generals have been fired and replaced with Muslim Brotherhood loyalists. Also Morsi has not called the Egyptian Parliament back (disbanded originally by Egyptian military) which Glick believes gives Morsi the power to write Egypt’s new Constitution. If Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood write the next Egyptian Constitution, this will probably instill dictatorial powers on the new Egyptian President. Glick believes these dictatorial powers will be on a larger scale than the Obama abandoned and deposed Hosni Mubarak’s power.
Glick then properly goes on to criticize Obama’s Foreign Policy of joining Turkey in supporting the Islamist rebels fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Now I realize there will be really no difference in Israel-hate and American-hate from which ever Syrian broker eventually stabilizes control of Syria; however deposing Assad would throw a monkey wrench into the Iranian-Syrian military alliance at least for awhile. That actually would be to America’s benefit. Anything that sets Iran back with only a little resource involvement by the US is a plus for America.
If the Sunni-Islamists succeed in taking over Syria the animosity with Iran would only be temporary in my opinion. The one thing that unites and smoothes over the hatred between Sunni and Shia Muslims (Iran is a Shia Theocracy) is a mutual hatred for Jews and Israel.
I suspect if Israel attacks Iranian nuke sites the Sunni regimes of Turkey (Islamist government) and now Egypt (Muslim Brotherhood Islamist government) might begin to offer at the very least clandestine military aid to Iranian client Hezbollah and the Sunni-Islamist terrorists Hamas. Undoubtedly Hamas would join a Hezbollah attack from the north by making a southern military front against Israel. The Saudi Royal Family hates and fears the militant Shia Iran regime in becoming a regional hegemon. I believe it is a pretty good guess that the Wahhabi Clerics in Saudi Arabia would fully support the elimination of Israel’s existence. If the Saudi Royal Family does not want its own civil war it would probably support yet another invasion of Israel while working clandestinely with the USA to help thwart Iranian influence.
Israel’s existence is in volatile times. A nuclear armed Iran would be suicide for Israel. Israel must take the risk of regional war to stop the formation of nuclear warheads that can be placed on Iranian missiles that can easily reach Israel. If a regional war breaks out Israel would have to be harsh on the Arabs that call themselves Palestinians just to survive. I sense a President like Obama would condemn Israel for such self-preservation harshness against Palestinian Authority Arabs and Hamas governed Gaza Arabs. An Obama-like President might even desire to punish Israel by not helping the Jewish State to survive.
YOU DO KNOW what would happen to Jews in a defeated Israel, right? There would be a SECOND Holocaust that would either rival the Hitler-Nazi Holocaust or even exceed those dimensions of butchery.
American voters need to vote for a President that is Pro-Israel and willing to stand with Israel even if doing so is not Politically Correct to the rest of the Western World. Currently that man is GOP Nominee Mitt Romney. Standing with Israel will bring the blessings of God Almighty for blessing God’s Chosen People.
I am not Jewish; nonetheless I and other Biblical Christians support Israel because the Jewish State’s existence is prophetic. Eventually Jesus Himself will Return and the Jews will comprehend He is their Messiah as much as He is the Christian Messiah (i.e. the Christ) of Christian Believers looking for the fulfillment of God’s plans for His Creation. Salvation is of the Jews.
Yup, you pegged me: I am a Christian Zionist (SA Jewish Virtual Library). The kind of person Leftists, Muslims and erstwhile so-called Progressive Christians dislike immensely. Unfortunately many Liberal and Observant Jews distrust the motivation of Christian Zionists.
[SlantRight Editor Side Note: The distrust is in the Christian Zionist motivation to be a friend of Israel. Jews are not real hip to Christian proselytizing because of the unscriptural and horrid treatment Jews received at the hands of Christians taught to hate Jews as Christ-killers. The accusation was unfair in Christian history and it is unfair now.
For one thing polytheistic Romans were goaded into Crucifying Christ at the behest of power-station minded Jewish leadership (viz. the Sanhedrin monopolized by Pharisees but dominated by Greek mindset Sadducees).]
Well that is my two-cents. The analysis of Israel’s predicament and U.S. Foreign Policy is much more eloquently provided by Caroline Glick. You should READ IT.

Easter: The Signs of the Times
John R. Houk
© April 8, 2012
I am a proud Christian Zionist. This means I fully support Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish State, all of Jerusalem is Israel and the Jewish people’s capital city and the Biblical land of Promise is Jewish land.
For Christian Zionists the year 1948 was a prophetic moment that seemed the thing myths are made of until physical manifestation caught up with Biblical Truth. The Jews had begun to return to their homeland and became an independent nation in the 1948. Since the last expulsion of Jews from their homeland in 70 AD I don’t think anyone believed that the Jews would return to Israel and become an independent nation in God’s Land of Promise. That is of course no one believed in the possibility except the devoted Jews that would culminate prayers with something “Next Year in Jerusalem.” This was a prayer on the lips of devoted Jews for nearly 2000 years until in Biblical style a far outnumbered amount of Jews managed to stave off about six invading Jew-hating Muslim armies and indeed became that independent nation in 1948.
After Hitler’s Holocaust attempted to exterminate Jews from the face of Europe, 1948 must have been a blessed joy to all Jews globally knowing a place existed in which the indigenous government would not persecute them for having a Jewish heritage.
For Christian Zionists Israel’s reestablishment meant that the hope of generations from that first Easter Sunday may be closer than ever imagined; i.e. the return of Christ Jesus in Glory to establish the Kingdom of God on earth above all human nations with Jewish Israel as the Holy Place of the true New World Order. This would be a NWO in which King Jesus the Son of God would rule in Justice, Mercy and Righteousness. This would not be a NWO based on Marxist-Socialist principles of an elite forcing humanity to conform to a pseudo-utopian government design that cull the unwilling by force. Nor would a NWO be ruled be an anti-Christ religion that denies the Virgin Birth of Christ, the bodily Resurrection from death to Life and the reacquiring of the Divine attributes laid aside at the incarnation birth as the Son of God. Father, Son and Holy Spirit are ONE God in three persons. Christ Jesus is simultaneously fully man as the son of man via Mary’s human ancestry traced through the Davidic line and is fully God as conceived by Father via the instrument of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary. Jesus had to be fully man in order for a man to be sacrificed as purer blood than the DNA strain of Adam that sold allegiance to Satan which included Adam’s charge the earth. The death of Christ on the Cross became that innocent Blood to Redeem humanity from the twisted contaminated blood warped at Adam’s betrayal. Christ’s Resurrection is defeat of Satan that offers humanity to choose a Savior and return to God or to chose (sic) spiritual death and a share of Satan’s final outcome.
Easter represents this hope in Christ’s return by Bible believing Christians and has become more expectant by Christian Zionists by the sign of the reestablishment of Israel.
1 But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel:
“Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by your name;
You are Mine.2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you.3 For I am the Lord your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I gave Egypt for your ransom,
Ethiopia and Seba in your place.4 Since you were precious in My sight,
You have been honored,
And I have loved you;
Therefore I will give men for you,
And people for your life.5 Fear not, for I am with you;
I will bring your descendants from the east,
And gather you from the west;6 I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’
And to the south, ‘Do not keep them back!’
Bring My sons from afar,
And My daughters from the ends of the earth—7 Everyone who is called by My name,
Whom I have created for My glory;
I have formed him, yes, I have made him.”
8 Bring out the blind people who have eyes,
And the deaf who have ears.9 Let all the nations be gathered together,
And let the people be assembled.
Who among them can declare this,
And show us former things?
Let them bring out their witnesses, that they may be justified;
Or let them hear and say, “It is truth.” (Isaiah 43: 1-9 NKJV)
3 “Thus says the Lord:
‘I will return to Zion,
And dwell in the midst of Jerusalem.
Jerusalem shall be called the City of Truth,
The Mountain of the Lord of hosts,
The Holy Mountain.’
4 “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘Old men and old women shall again sit
In the streets of Jerusalem,
Each one with his staff in his hand
Because of great age.5 The streets of the city
Shall be full of boys and girls
Playing in its streets.’
6 “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘If it is marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days,
Will it also be marvelous in My eyes?’
Says the Lord of hosts.
7 “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘Behold, I will save My people from the land of the east
And from the land of the west;8 I will bring them back,
And they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem.
They shall be My people
And I will be their God,
In truth and righteousness.’
13 And it shall come to pass
That just as you were a curse among the nations,
O house of Judah and house of Israel,
So I will save you, and you shall be a blessing.
Do not fear,
Let your hands be strong.’
14 “For thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘Just as I determined to punish you
When your fathers provoked Me to wrath,’
Says the Lord of hosts,
‘And I would not relent,15 So again in these days
I am determined to do good
To Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.
Do not fear.16 These are the things you shall do:
Speak each man the truth to his neighbor;
Give judgment in your gates for truth, justice, and peace;17 Let none of you think evil in your[a] heart against your neighbor;
And do not love a false oath.
For all these are things that I hate,’
Says the Lord.”
20 “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘Peoples shall yet come,
Inhabitants of many cities;21 The inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying,
“Let us continue to go and pray before the Lord,
And seek the Lord of hosts.
I myself will go also.”22 Yes, many peoples and strong nations
Shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem,
And to pray before the Lord.’
23 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.”’” (Zechariah 8: 3-8; 13-17; 20-23 NKJV)
I ran into some more exciting news that I consider a sign. This Passover 2012 which closely corresponds with Easter this year, A Jewish organization in Israel known as The Temple Institute ran a simulation of the Temple Passover blood sacrifice. The Temple Institute has been slowly creating Temple instruments for some time with the belief that someday the Jewish Temple will be restored.
Here is an account meant to inspire Jews, but I got to tell you – it should inspire Christians as a yet another signs of the times are showing an ever increasing moment in which King Jesus will come to reclaim His own and establish God’s Kingdom to incorporate all the nations of the earth.

The Jewish Cohens practice the Sacrifice of the Pesach Korban Lamb; Has the Day of the Messiah Come!
April 7, 2012 11:23 PM
The Korban-Pesach Animal Sacrifice Offering in the Holy Temple
Passover 2012 in Jerusalem, the Kohen (priests of Israel) began to relearn the art of offering the Pesach Offering. On April 2, on the 10th of Nisan, a coalition of Temple Mount oriented organization offered classes to all who chose to attend a seminar in the afternoon of the 10th of Nisan. These classes were held to discuss the mitzvot (commandment) in the Torah in reference to the halakhic offering and the practical applications on how to perform the Passover offering now over 1940 years later.
The Korban Pesach Seminar on Temple Ritual Sacrifice Preparations
Included in the seminar session were hundreds of men, women, and children involved in all sectors of Jewish life in Jerusalem today. By 5:00 p.m. over a thousand people had gathered out of doors as they anticipated a live demonstration of actually conduction a Korban Pesach ritual offering like it was done in the Temple of Herod two thousand years ago.
Two lambs or goats were selected and an actual shochet (ritual slaughter) was conducted on sight for the entire audience observation. For the demonstration a small mizbeach (stone altar) was erected for the demonstration.
The Blood of the Sacrificial Animal is “dashed against the altar”.
Then a complete re-enactment of the animal sacrifice which involved the actually slaughtering of the lamb was conducted. The blood of the lamb was gathered in the mizrak vessel that had already been made for this type of animal sacrifice as the blood was dashed against the altar.
The lamb was this ritually dressed by the shochet and then the organs were burnt upon the altar as directed in the biblical commands and then removed and displayed. The lamb was then put on a fire spit as was done during the era of King Herod’s Temple, and then roasted in an oven specially prepared as done during the days in which the Holy Temple was functioning as the “The House of G-d”. Afterwards the Temple Institute distributed the meat to the needy Jewish families.
The Gathering of the Jews watching the Ritual korban Pesach Sacrifice
One thing of importance concerning this educational experience is the fact that the Korban Pesach offering can officially only be completed upon an altar in reference to precise location of where Solomon’s and King Herod’s Temple once stood on the Temple Mount area. What was also of interest were that over two thousand people attended the korban Pesach demonstration as described by the Temple Institute:
Temple Institute – “The two thousand plus crowd who attended was comprised of people of all stripes – ultra orthodox, modern orthodox, and secular. In truth, it was a cross section of the entire nation of Israel. The interest was so strong and the desire to see the demonstration so intense, that the re-enactment couldn’t proceed until a “sterile area” around the proceedings could be established. Local and overseas, religious and secular media alike were enthusiastically covering the event.
Most astonishing and rewarding was the palpable excitement which filled the air and animated the attendants. This was not your average afternoon “entertainment.” It was truly as if an ancient collective memory had been revived. A spirit of holiday joy and unity was kindled. As the re-enactment wound down, many heart warming calls of “Next year in the Holy Temple” could be heard from the crowd.”

On this same day of the year, the 10th day of Nisan, 2,000 years ago, the High Priest of Israel left through the Damascus Gate to the north to go into the field to choose the most perfect yearling Pesach lamb that would become the Korban Lamb for the upcoming Passover offering four days later. During these next four days the Pesach Lamb was inspected for any blemish by the High Priest in the Temple compound until it was declared “pure” by the High Priest on the 14th of Nisan. On this day of inspection, when the High Priest brought the Lamb from the fields down through the Damascus Street to the temple as thousands of pilgrims thronged the streets in anticipation of this august event.
To the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel, it is important for us to understand that the most comprehensive historical documentation of this Passover event was written by the eyewitness talmidim of the Orthodox Jewish rabbi Yahshua HaNotzri (Jesus the Nazarene) who was a Prince of David, and defender of the Halakha of Rabbi Hillel the Great. Yet, he was an Orthodox rabbi who lived his life above and beyond the letter of the law, and to his disciples he said, “Follow Me!” Do as I do, and believe in the G-d of Israel as I do! Many Jewish people in that day during the 1st century Temple era period did consider that this rabbi was to be the messiah for their generation. As written on BibleSearchers Reflections:
The Northern Damascus Gate in Jerusalem – Photo by Robert Mock
BibleSearchers Reflections – “It was on the evening prior to the day of the lamb selection by the High Priest, Jesus made special preparations with his disciples (talmidim) for the events of the next day. It was a secret mission. Jesus knew that on the fourth day before the Passover, the High Priest was to leave the city through the North Gate as he went to the sheep herds and inspected the yearling flock for the most perfect lamb of the season. With this in mind, Jesus then laid out his strategy with his disciples.
This morning of the 10th day of Nisan awakened. The sky was crystal clear, the cool early spring breezes swept down through the Kidron valley. The ripened barley was waving at the base of the Mount of Olives in the Field of Ashes. As directed, the chosen disciples found a donkey with a young colt tied in a doorway near an open street. On the side of the Mount of Olives, the disciples (talmidim) awaited their Master.
Within the city of Jerusalem, the crowds of pilgrims were in anticipation of a great procession with the arrival of the Pesach Lamb. Every year, four days before Passover, a vast entourage of Cohanim (priests) would file out of the Herod’s Temple. Instead of exiting out of the gate nearest the Temple on the western wall and walking over the overhanging bridge over the Tyropean Valley that connected the Temple Mount with the Upper City, the procession of hundreds of Cohanim (priests) paraded out of the Royal Stoa’s western gate entrance, where the vast temple market place, the Bazaar of Hanan (Ananus the Elder) was located. There they walked down the wide staircase over what is known as the Robinsons’ Arch, turning south, then west and finally north as they connected with the main North-west street of Jerusalem, the Damascus street going to the North Gate, known as the Damascus Gate.
The procession entered the Upper City, where the densely packed homes, had the appearance of an impenetrable wall. To the left was the tall imposing Hasmonean Palace, built over a hundred years prior looming high on the horizon.
The Cohanim (priests) began to line the sides of the Damascus street, two by two, maintaining positions on either side of the street, as they rocked back and forth with palm fronds in their hands. As the Cohanim positioned themselves, the High Priest and his entourage made its way north to the North Gate. Outside the city they inspected the flocks of yearling lambs to find the most perfect lamb. Year after year this custom was dramatized on the fourth day prior to Passover. Inside the city, the hundreds of thousands of pilgrims who flocked to the city had already arrived, each one bringing a palm frond or cedar bough, they had collected in route to the Holy City. The whole city was lined with greenery as they placed these boughs outside the residence that they were staying.
The eager Cohanim (priests) awaited the return of the High Priest. When Caiphas, the high priest entered the Damascus Gate bringing the selected lamb by his side, the Cohanim at the gate began shouting, “Hosanna to the Highest! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed be the kingdom of our father David that is coming! Hosanna in the Highest!” (Mark 11:9-10) Upon hearing the shout the people in the city, those who had already purified themselves in the mitzvahs in the southern part of the city, ran out into the street, also bringing their fronds and started shouting, “Hosanna in the Highest!”
Outside the Damascus Gate, to the east of the city, the disciples on the Mount of Olives were waiting to rendezvous with Yahshua. We now have a whole group of disciples (talmidim), a mother donkey and her two-three year old colt. A blanket is put over the colt and Yahshua quietly puts his hand on the colt’s mane. This was the colt’s first riding experience. The quietness of the Master was transmitted to the colt as He mounts and they begin the descent into the Kidron Valley into the city.
In unison, as cued by the Rabbi Yahshua, the disciples begin to shout, “Hosanna in the Highest! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of our Lord!” The flocks of pilgrims join in the chant as Jesus and the talmidim (disciples) went around the northern part of the Temple Mount, below the base of the Antonia Fortress towards the Gate of Damascus.
In the meantime, the Caiphas, the High Priest, had now exited the Northern Damascus Gate and was heading out to the fields to inspect the flocks of yearling lambs. The chant intensified, the Cohanim at the Gate hear the chant and began to shout, “Hosanna in the Highest! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of our Lord!” The chant now cascaded like a domino down the Damascus Street all the way to the wall to the Temple Mount.
Solomon’s Porch in the Temple of Herod– by E Bible
Suddenly, the Cohanim at the gate realize, they have been fooled. This was not the return of the High Priest. This was Rabbi Yahshua and his disciples. Some of the Shammaite Pharisees, the dogmatic sticklers of church protocol in defining the letter of the truth, challenged Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” Jesus shouts back to them over the swelling cries of the multitude, “If these were silent, the very stones would cry out.” (Luke 19:40)
The people began to flock out of their homes, grabbing their palm fronds outside the doors and the shouting swelled throughout the city. Anticipation was high! The whole land had heard of the teachings of the great Rabbi Yahshua. Was this not a Sabbatical year, a special year in which the whole land rests? Were not rumors abounding throughout the land that the messiah would come in the on the Shabbat of years?
Not only was it a Sabbatical year, it was a Sabbatical Passover, which only occurred every seven years, the Highest Passover when pilgrims throughout the Diaspora flocked to the Holy Land. The city was swollen with pilgrims throughout the world; Macedonia, Crete, Parthia, Rome, and Ethiopia. Each pilgrim from their own countries, each with their strange costumes akin to their native land, many trying to remember a bit of Hebrew they rarely used, occasionally breaking into the tongue of their land of residence, all producing a cacophony of sound and sight.
You can almost see a Cohanim, rocking back and forth with their palm fronds, breaking the rhythm, leaning over and peering up the street. Where is the priest? Where is the Lamb? Suddenly they see. What! “Rabbi Jesus riding a colt, followed by mother ass and a whole entourage of His disciples!” What is this!
View of “Royal Stoa,” the cloistered area at the southern end of the temple abutting the court of the Gentiles. – The Preterist Main
The crowd became ecstatic; the town was in a tumult. They shouted, “Hosanna in the Highest! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of our Lord! Blessed be the kingdom of our father David that is coming! Hosanna in the Highest!” Jumping in glee they threw off their cloaks, so that the messiah could ride over on a garment-laden path.
Yes, said the Zealots, this is our man! We have sealed the perimeters of the city, and the revolt is ripe to take the city in the name of HaShem. Yes, said the Sicarii, we have waited for him. Now we can destroy the hated Romans and the traitorous Temple leaders, the Herodians, and the Sadducees, who have played into and have been bought by the blood money of the Romans. Yes, said the peasants and the populous! Here is the messiah, who will bring in the Kingdom of the G-d of Israel. The crowds thronged behind Yahshua as He headed south to the Temple Mount and the Royal Stoa. The people, the Cohanim were swept up in vast tide of humanity. Guess what?
Caiphas, the High Priest was returning from the northern fields with the Passover Lamb in hand and as he entered the northern Damascus Gate, the street was empty. What’s going on! When he hears that Rabbi Yahshua has entered the city as a royal aspirant to the throne of David, the messiah who is come, and he was furious. Type met antitype at this moment. The Passover lamb met the Lamb of G-d.
Yahshua on the other hand, passed under the Robinson’s Archway of the Royal Causeway and dismounted at the base of the assent to the Royal Stoa of the Temple. Up the vast gateway he climbed. This entry gate was awe-inspiring with polished limestone capped with fold plated Corinthian capitals. Into the Royal Stoa, he strode. It was a long hallway straddled out before him with four broad columned aisles. There in the quietness of the Royal Stoa, in the stillness of the hour, in the Temple of his Father, He prayed. It was getting late, so He left the Temple and walked over to Bethany.”
The Royal Stoa in Southern Side of the Temple of Herod
The Holy Temple services ceased to exist when the Temple of Herod was destroyed and razed to the ground by the Roman forces of Titus in 70 CE. For almost two thousand years, the Jewish people have been waiting and anticipating that day when again the King Messiah will come and establish or inaugurate the “Kingdom of G-d” again on Planet Earth. This is as Jewish a concept as it can be.
Today, during Passover the Jewish people set out four glasses of wine, as the “fruit of the vine” which is a symbol of joy and gladness. These four glasses are used as a “toast” to the four expressions used in the Torah story of the Exodus in which they were to remember their redemption from oppression in Egypt as written in Exodus 6:6-7 – “Therefore say to the Children of Israel: ‘I am HaShem, and;
1. “I will bring you out (hotzaiti) from under the burdens of the Egyptians”;
2. “I will deliver you (hitzalti) from their bondage”;
3. “I will redeem you (ga-alti) with an outstretched arm and with great judgments” and
4. “I will take you (lakahti) to me for a people; I will be to you G-d…”
The next verse continues with;
5. “And I will bring you (hai-vaitee) into the land concerning which I vowed to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
According to Rabbi Hayim Halevy Donin’s seminal book titled, “To be a Jew, a Guide to Jewish Observance in Contemporary Life”, we read the following:
Rabbi Donin – “This fifth expression is symbolized by a Fifth Cup which is not drunk because during Israel’s long centuries of exile, the people looked upon it as a promise that still needed fulfilment, However, it was set on the table and called the Cup of Elijah. The Prophet Elijah, according to the tradition, is the forerunner of the Messiah whose coming symbolized the ingathering of the exiles and the reestablishment of Jewish sovereignty over Israel: hence the promise of being brought back into the land of the forefathers is associated with Elijah. Many Jews in Israel have been inclined towards adopting the view of many Early and Later Authorities that calls for drinking, not four, but the five cups of wine. Instead of just one more cup following the grace after the meal (which is said over the third cup), an extra cup is introduced in the middle of the latter part of the Seder service.”
To the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel, as we can see, the Jews of the House of Judah are preparing to the coming of the Messiah. Your burdens and your bondage is from the oppressors of the lands in which you dwell. America, Europe and any other lands is your Egypt today. With an “outstretched arm and with great judgments” you will also be redeemed as the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will take you to Himself to be His people, and He, the G-d of the Jews will also be your G-d.
The collective memories of your ancient forefathers are still there within your Israelite neshama soul. Let them come forth and ponder the significance of them upon your life for the G-d of Israel is calling you home. As your brothers, the Jews of the House of Israel are awakened to the day of the Messiah, so also your soul is being awakened. Now is the time to “reach out and touch someone”, that is your tribal brothers of the House of Judah and the House of Israel.
Ezekiel 36:22, 24-28 (parts) – “Thus says the Adonai G-d, “I do not do this for your sake, O House of Israel, but for My holy Name’s sake, which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went…
I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols…
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your G-d.”
Before the G-d of Israel brought the Children of Israel out of the land of Egypt, He first brought to them their new messiah and savior.

One of the roles the Sages of Judah is to become the conduit for the Divine to give us hints as to HaShem’s role in bringing forth the “Appointed Time” and the revealing of the Messiah. The great theme in all of this is the restoration of All Israel. This is not a conditional prophesy and neither is it a Jewish prophesy, but a Hebrew-Israelite prophesy. We will be restored back into brotherhood and fellowship with our cousins, the Jews of the House of Judah for that is G-d’s will (Ezekiel 37).

About ICEJ:
The International Christian Embassy Jerusalem (ICEJ) was founded in 1980 as an act of comfort and solidarity with Israel and the Jewish people in their claim to Jerusalem.
Today, the ICEJ stands at the forefront of a growing mainstream movement of Christians worldwide who share a love and concern for Israel and an understanding of the biblical significance of the modern ingathering of the Jews to the land of their forefathers.
From our headquarters in Jerusalem, through our branches and representatives in over 80 nations, we seek to challenge the Church to take up its scriptural responsibilities towards the Jewish people, to remind Israel of the wonderful promises made to her in the Bible and to be a source of practical assistance to all the people of the land of Israel.
Thank you for taking the time to visit our site and to learn more about the work and ministry of the ICEJ. Please consider joining us in taking a stand for Israel around the world. We are your Embassy in Jerusalem!READ ENTIRE ABOUT PAGE
I am Huge with Israel is the Land of the Jews
John R. Houk
© January 2012
Some might wonder the reasoning of a Christian Right Winger is so committed to the existence of Israel and Jews that internally and globally support the existence of a Jewish State. Then again as part of the Christian Right you might not wonder. In this day and age every Christian (authentic, Progressive or Emerging/Emergent) needs to search their conscience and contemplate their reasons for supporting or hating on Israel.
I am obviously a part of the Christian Right that wears the moniker of a Christian Zionist. Zionists lobbied heavily for the creation of a Jewish State and ultimately for that State to be in the homeland of the heritage that God provided to Jews (Hebrews) as a Promised Land. The British plugged into the Zionist movement during WWI in battling their enemies of Germany, Austro-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire (Turkey). In the case of the Jews that enemy that mattered was the Ottoman Empire which still held a multinational empire in the Middle East. Victory over the Ottoman’s meant that Europe controlled Middle Eastern land as victors in war. Essentially the British and the French took slices of the Middle East with the League of Nations validating that control under the idealism that a Mandatory System would give Middle Eastern people their own nation. Primarily the Middle Eastern people had not known personal sovereignty for centuries due to Ottoman rule. Indeed Middle Eastern Arabs rose up in revolt against the Ottomans under the dream of freedom and sovereignty.
Many Arabs became understandably nationalistic and dreamed of a Pan-Arab nation. Unfortunately for the Pan-Arabists the Brits and the French had no intention of allowing one huge Arab nation to exist in the Middle East. Hence the Mandatory system was utilized to play on the tribalistic thinking of Muslim Arabs and offered kingdoms to Sheiks; i.e. essentially to the Muslim families that were the most supportive of the British Army fighting the Ottomans in the Middle East. (It was mostly a British effort in the Middle East during WWI even though the French was given a Mandatory as well.) By playing on the greed for power Britain and France easily carved up the Middle East.
The British Mandate for Palestine’s original intention was for a Jewish State. The British bean to rethink their National Interest position when somebody realized that the Arabs – being good Muslims – were extremely hostile to a largely immigrant Jewish crowd that with the promise of leaving European persecution. So the British tried to slow down the Jewish promise for a return to their homeland to accommodate nationalistic Pan-Arabism.
Well that is the end of my incomplete thoughts on how modern Israel began to emerge.
The point is that Zionism prevailed and Israel came into existence. The irony of the 1948 survival to claim the independence of modern Israel is that a significant amount of Zionist Jews were Left leaning and not necessarily totally observant Jews. The one commonality between Israel’s Left and Right (with the Right largely being religious Jews) was to survive as a nation to avoid the extermination that Hitler’s Nazi Germany attempted to perpetuate on Jews that resulted in nearly SIX MILLION Jewish deaths.
Now let’s be clear that Israel is a Jewish State that also has Christians, Muslims and various Islamic offshoots such as the Druze syncretic religious population. Christians, Muslims and Muslim offshoots are completely free to practice their faith openly without threat of state sanctioned persecution. The drawback is that proselytization is not allowed in Israel.
For a Christian Right person such as me, evangelism is a preeminent part of being a Christian. So question is: Why are there evangelicals that are so supportive of the Jewish State of Israel? The answer is related to the term Christian Zionism.
Let’s look at some thoughts on Christian Zionism
Here is a Jewish perspective from the Jewish Virtual Library:
Christian Zionism can be defined as Christian support for the Zionist cause — the return of the Jewish people to its biblical homeland in Israel. It is a belief among some Christians that the return of Jews to Israel is in line with a biblical prophecy, and is necessary for Jesus to return to Earth as its king. These Christians are partly motivated by the writings of the Bible and the words of the prophets. However, they are also driven to support Israel because they wish to “repay the debt of gratitude to the Jewish people for providing Christ and the other fundamentals of their faith,” and to support a political ally, according to David Brog, author Standing With Israel: Why Christians Support the Jewish State.
…
Despite their support for Israel, many Jews however, are uncomfortable with Christian Zionists. This discomfort is fed by Christian anti-Semitism, Christian replacement theology, evangelical proselytizing, and disagreements over domestic and political issues.
Dispensationalist Christianity, an interpretive or narrative framework for understanding the overall flow of the Bible, teaches that Christianity did not replace Judaism, but that it restored lost elements of it. The dispensationalist view of the Bible is that the Old Testament is foreshadowing for what will occur in the New Testament and, at the end, Jesus returns to reign on Earth after an epic battle between good and evil. Israel plays a central role in the dispensationalist view of the end of the world. The establishment of Israel in 1948 was seen as a milestone to many dispensationalists on the path toward Jesus’ return. In their minds, now that the Jews again had regained their homeland, all Jews were able to return to Israel, just as had been prophesied in the Bible. As described in the Book of Revelation, there is an epic battle that will take place in Israel after it is reestablished — Armaggedon — in which it is prophesied that good will finally triumph over evil. However, in the process, two-thirds of the Jews in Israel die and the other third are converted to Christianity. Jesus then returns to Earth to rule for 1,000 years as king.
Although these Christians do hope for a Messianic age, the majority of them do not wish for the deaths of thousands of Jews during Armageddon. Dispensationalist Christians believe that the Jewish people, not Christians, are the ones who were promised Israel in the Bible. In their view, Christianity did not come into existence to replace Judaism, but to restore it. This view has surpassed replacement theology as the dominant form of Christian thought regarding Israel in America today. Jews who are suspicious of Christian Zionist motives are usually unaware that many Christian supporters of Israel have abandoned replacement theology.
Aside from anti-Semitism and Christian replacement theology, many Jews are wary of the fact that many evangelical Christians simply want to convert them to Christianity or speed up the Second Coming of Christ …
…
Christian Zionists say Jews have no reason to distrust their motives for supporting Israel because they do not believe they can speed up the Second Coming of Christ. In the Gospel of Matthew, it is written that Jesus said about his return, “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.”
…
Christian Zionists are also more conservative on Israel than many Jews. They favor Israel maintaining all of its settlements in the West Bank, and were opposed to the Israeli disengagement from the Gaza Strip. Some prominent Christian Zionists have been highly critical of Israeli government policy of giving over parts of Israel to the Palestinian people. Christian Zionists, like followers of the Israeli Right, believe that Israel should never cede any section of Israel to the Palestinians because Israel was given to the Jews by God. … (Read the entire JVL article)
It is important to understand that not all Jews are on board with Christian Zionism. The organized Christian Church has a long history of persecution against Jews. Jews are proud of their heritage whether Liberal or religious, have nearly no interest in listening to a proselytizing message from a Christian.
Part Two: Christian Zionism
In the previous segment we looked at the question “What is Zionism?” and simply defined it as the biblical promises and prophecies made by God to the Jewish patriarchs that their descendants would occupy the Promised Land, what the world today calls Palestine, forever. Today we are going to look at the question:
“What is Christian Zionism?”
You may never have heard of it before. Christian Zionism is a movement resulting from the Bible, mainly among Gentile Christians who share this interpretation and this vision of God being faithful to all His covenants; including the covenant He made with Abraham so long ago. We have been convinced by God to support this modern return, this latest and final return of the Jewish people to the Promised Land; by our prayers and fervent intercession and with our finances, actions and energies. (From webpage – Christian Zionism)
The above quote is from a very informative website.
I have got to post this article on Christian Zionism Defined by the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem which is re-posted at ZionismOnTheWeb.org. This is a succinct explanation of Christian Zionism:
Christian Zionism Defined
By International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, 10/1/2006
Reproduced at Zionism On The Web with permission from christian-zionism.orgTens of thousands of churches, and literally tens of millions Christians in the USA have a committed belief in the importance of standing with Israel and blessing the Jewish people. The verse most often referred to as their biblical mandate is Genesis 12:3 in which God tells Abraham “I will bless those who bless you and I will curse those who curse you and in you all the families of the earth will be blessed.”
Since the birth of the State of Israel in 1948 the theological error known as Replacement Theology has begun to decline and increasing is a theology of Christian Zionism that understands the importance of God’s everlasting covenant with Abraham and the nation he would birth.
However, just as the term “Zionism” has been turned into a negative word by Israel’s enemies, so “Christian Zionism” is under attack and often misrepresented in the media and in some public discourse. For this reason, the ICEJ’s articles and monographs defining and clarifying the beliefs of Christian supporters of Israel and placing their “love for Israel” within its proper biblical context are proving invaluable.
Christian Zionists
“Zionism, [is] the national movement for the return of the Jewish people to their homeland and the resumption of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel, advocated, from its inception, tangible as well as spiritual aims. Jews of all persuasions, left and right, religious and secular, joined to form the Zionist movement and worked together toward these goals. Disagreements led to rifts, but ultimately, the common goal of a Jewish state in its ancient homeland was attained. The term “Zionism” was coined in 1890 by Nathan Birnbaum.” (Jewish Virtual Library).
If Zionism is the belief in the Jewish peoples right to return to their homeland, then a Christian Zionist should simply be defined as a Christian who supports the Jewish peoples right to return to their homeland. Under this broad and simple definition, many Christians would qualify no matter what their reasons are for this support. Just as Jews of all persuasions formed the Zionist movement then Christians of all persuasion can also fall within this broad definition of a Christian Zionist.
For this very reason, a myriad of answers may be given by a Christian when questioned about their support of Israel. Answers can include political, historical, and/or religious reasons. For example, see our article Why We Support Israel.
Theology of Christian Zionism
The actual theology of Christian Zionism, also known as Biblical Zionism, supports the right of the Jewish people to return to their homeland on scriptural grounds. The biblical foundation for Christian Zionism is found in Gods Covenant with Abraham. It was in this covenant that God chose Abraham to birth a nation through which He could redeem the world, and to do this He bequeathed them a land on which to exist as this chosen nation.
Christian Zionism is confirmed throughout the Hebrew Scriptures. The major and minor prophets consistently confirmed this national calling on Israel, promised her future restoration to the land after a period of exile, and spoke of her spiritual renewal and redemption bringing light to the world.
Christian Zionism differs with Replacement Theology which teaches that the special relationship that Israel had with her God in terms of her national destiny and her national homeland has been lost because of her rejection of Jesus as Messiah, and therefore the Church has become the new Israel. The Church has then inherited all the blessings promised to Israel but the judgments and curses still conveniently remain over the Jewish people.
Instead, Christian Zionism teaches from the scriptures that Gods covenant with Abraham is still valid today. There remains a national destiny over the Jewish people and her national homeland is her everlasting possession in fulfillment of Gods plans and purposes for her. The New Testament scriptures not only affirm the Abrahamic covenant, but they confirm the historical mission of Israel and that Israels gifts and calling are irrevocable.
Most Christian Zionists would agree that Israels reemergence on the worlds scene, in fulfillment of Gods promises to her, indicate that other biblically-predicted events will follow. However, Christian Zionism is not based on prophecy or end-time events. It is based on Gods promises and calling – which are irrevocable. (The end of the article has several links to information on Christian Zionism)
Now here is my thing on being a Christian Zionist. If a Jewish person desires to know about Jesus I am more than willing to share the Gospel so that a Jewish person can KNOW Jesus – personally; however I believe evangelizing Jews is not a profitable action. The Jews – who are God’s Chosen People – will know Jesus by the Lord’s own Divine action. How that plays out, I do not have a clue.
Perhaps in the Last Days when Israel is in trouble of destruction without some kind supernatural help, the Lord Jesus Christ will reveal Himself as the King of the Jews of the line of David and as the Son of God. Or perhaps at Christ’s return with his angels and Saints at the end of the Tribulation period when the Thousand Year Reign of King Jesus is established in which the remnant of living Gentiles and Jews who have not Believed will now know Jesus is King, the head of government of the true New World Order. Undoubtedly the power of the Lord’s return will create instant respect for the authority of Jesus to rule as the head of One World Government; however it will take a training period of One Thousand Years to allow a heart belief in Jesus as Lord and Savior.
It is after the 1000 year training period that Satan will be released from chains. Satan will work his temptation on the humans of planet earth and some will join Satan’s army. The end of the Book tells us Satan loses in that final battle and he is cast into the lake of fire with the anti-Christ and the False Prophet to exist in eternal burning with bodily consumption. Those humans committed to reject life in Christ before the Parousia and after will join Satan in the lake of fire.
By the time of the creation of the New Heavens and the New Earth with the New Jerusalem as the dwelling place of God’s presence all things will be new and there will be division of Jew and Gentile. The point being, from a Christian perspective, the Jews will discover their Messiah supernaturally and accept His Presence.
Now here is a little personal rumor history. When I was a teenager my Grandmother told me a Jewish ancestry existed in my heritage to go along with my German and English strains. Now she told me this in hush-hush terms as if she was embarrassed to share this with me. I thought it odd at the time that she spoke of my ancestors in such a hushed tone. At the time I could care less because my prime directive was to have fun and party in the small college town – Washington State – I grew up in.
As I grew older and became a Christian I thought on that day of my Grandmother’s hushed information Jewish blood in my veins. If it is true, I had a sense of pride rather than embarrassment. I understand my Grandmother’s close-to-the-vest attitude because she was a kid in the days in which a Jew was frowned upon even in America.
Whether my Jewish lineage is true or not, I could not say. I never pursued an ancestry chart, mostly because it has never been in my budget. I might try to get someone to work on that for me some day, but I don’t have time currently. At any rate the potential of a Jewish ancestry increases my position as a Christian Zionist.

I am what many would define as a Christian Zionist. I am a Christian that stands with Israel and the Jews because the Land was given by God and it was given to the Jews as a promise made to Abraham through the line of the child of Promise – Isaac – and Isaac’s son Jacob (aka Israel). As a Christian I believe lineage Promise flows ultimately to Jesus and those that are joint-heirs with Christ as grafted to Israel by the Blood of Christ. For the sake of clarity: Christians do not replace Jews as the Chosen people. That promise was made to Abrahamic bloodline that descends through Isaac and Jacob. The return of Christ will be the return of the Jewish Messiah which most Jews deny to this day. Nonetheless Paul qualified the Good News of Christ to the nations as to the Jews first then to the Gentile (nations). The Blood of Christ removes the barrier between Jews and the nations that believe on Christ.
Is there hostility among Jews toward Christians that declare Jesus is the Messiah of the Jews that will come and bring peace to the nations of the world? Yes there is.
Should Jewish hostility regarding Christ the Lord, cause hostility by Christians to be directed toward Jews? NO! The restoration of Jews to the Land of Israel is part of the Promise of the soon returning King Jesus who traces His blood through humanity back to Abraham and the Redemption of the humanity back to God Almighty who is the same yesterday, today and forever.
Now my thoughts on Israel as the Jewish Homeland is because I read a recent prophecy delivered through Kim Clement that the Elijah List provides the title, “God Wants to Display His Glory in Israel Again”. Before I proceed to the cross post with the Elijah List I am led to share these Scriptures of the Promise.
1 Now the LORD had said to Abram:
“Get out of your country,
From your family
And from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you.
2 I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Gen. 12: 1-3 NKJV)
18 And Abraham said to God, “Oh, that Ishmael might live before You!”
19 Then God said: “No, Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac; I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his descendants after him. 20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He shall beget twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation. 21 But My covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this set time next year.” 22 Then He finished talking with him, and God went up from Abraham. (Gen. 17: 18-22 NKJV)
9 So I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughout the countries; I judged them according to their ways and their deeds. 20 When they came to the nations, wherever they went, they profaned My holy name—when they said of them, ‘These are the people of the LORD, and yet they have gone out of His land.’ 21 But I had concern for My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations wherever they went.
22 “Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy name’s sake, which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went. 23 And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the LORD,” says the Lord GOD, “when I am hallowed in you before their eyes. 24 For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. 25 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. 28 Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God. 29 I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. I will call for the grain and multiply it, and bring no famine upon you. 30 And I will multiply the fruit of your trees and the increase of your fields, so that you need never again bear the reproach of famine among the nations. 31 Then you will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations. 32 Not for your sake do I do this,” says the Lord GOD, “let it be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel!”
33 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “On the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will also enable you to dwell in the cities, and the ruins shall be rebuilt. 34 The desolate land shall be tilled instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass by. 35 So they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the wasted, desolate, and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’ 36 Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, the LORD, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. I, the LORD, have spoken it, and I will do it.”
37 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “I will also let the house of Israel inquire of Me to do this for them: I will increase their men like a flock. 38 Like a flock offered as holy sacrifices, like the flock at Jerusalem on its feast days, so shall the ruined cities be filled with flocks of men. Then they shall know that I am the LORD.”’” (Ezekiel 36: 19-38 NKJV)

God Wants to Display His Glory in Israel Again

Israel is About to Experience a Damascus Road Experience
Prophesied on July 27, 2011 from Israel:
While I was praying today, I had a very interesting word from the Lord about a Damascus Road experience that this nation [Israel] is about to experience. I’ll teach a little bit more about that, but I want Sunil to come and we’re going to share a bit of Code Breakers together. I may do this for you on Saturday for The Den, the actual message about what was happening prior to and after Paul’s (Saul’s) conversion – absolutely fascinating. There were great things happening and yet he was persecuting the Church. I’ll share that with you in a while, but I believe that this nation is about to experience that. I’m not saying that they’ll all fall on their knees and all call out to Messiah, but I feel like some very powerful people are going to meet Christ and it’s going to make a difference.
I can feel the presence of destiny. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t believe that. God put me here and said, “You must be a prophetic voice in Jerusalem, in Israel.” And I can feel the presence of hope. A lot of people don’t feel that. What is the hope? There’s going to be a move of the Spirit, a tremendous move of the Spirit, and it’s going to shake this nation and their enemies are going to look and say, “Why is this happening? They shouldn’t be rejoicing.” Did David not say in Psalms that He “will prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies?” That’s what I’m excited about.
The Prime Minister of this nation, Netanyahu, has been on my heart since Nashville, when I got the first prophecy about him being like Jeremiah. Netanyahu is also a prophet, a prophetic voice, and we’ve got to pray for his protection, because I’ve had some insight into how they want to get to him. This man is a spiritual man and God has given me a word for him. I’ve not only prophesied it, but I’m now delivering it to him as well.
I’ve had some deep revelation – theophanies. Remember the School of the Prophet where I taught about a theophany? I’ve had those, where God has come to me. Just before I left to come to Israel, I had a very unique experience that I want to tell you about. It’s difficult to speak about, because it happened in my garden where I went to pray the day before I left. As I was praying, my prayer time was extended; I usually spend 45 minutes to an hour. The Spirit of the Lord came into the garden, was ushered into my garden, and I felt Him so strongly; and He spoke about Netanyahu, and as He did, it was so strong that I fell on my knees and I began to weep.
Now I don’t weep a lot, but I was so moved, and all I did was weep. I must have wept for about ten minutes, which is a long time to weep like that. And I had this moment – and I was on my knees for about 20 minutes – where I felt like God was about to move into his heart in such a big way, and I was carrying that and I was to pray for him, that God would protect him, because there were definitely going to be some attacks against him. But I wept because I heard Proverbs; I heard Proverbs chapter eight.
God Wants to Display His Glory in Israel Again
Prophesied on July 29, 2011 from Israel:
It’s amazing how we’ve heard from God Himself that there’s going to be this huge experience, a Damascus Road experience here in Israel. So, it means that the Messiah, before He comes, there’s going to be an outpouring of His Spirit in Israel. That’s the reason I’m here, because you see, a prophet is sent before the time to prepare the way. Even if nobody’s listening to me, I can shout it from this mountain and it goes into the atmosphere and God’s word is being spoken.
As I’m standing on the rooftop in Jerusalem, as I’m standing here on Mount Precipice overlooking all these mountains, this great history, I can feel that God is going to once again do what He did when He was with Elijah and poured out His Spirit right there in the presence of all these enemies that have surrounded Israel, that have these different religions. Remember, he was standing against the prophets of Baal because they were trying to invade and take away from the true God.
God wants to display His power; God wants to display His glory in Israel again and through the Church. Do you know what they say to me? Most of the people that I meet say if it were not for the Christians, for the evangelists and teachers and the Christ-people, that Israel would be destroyed. You and I have that responsibility.
I am the prophetic voice that God sent at this time to pronounce from this mountain all the great miracles that took place, all the great things that were done through Elijah and Elisha and all the great prophets, will once again take place. Now, how can that happen? Well, you hear the different religions that are all here trying to destroy Israel, trying to bring down the name of the God, the true God of Israel. Well, what is God going to do? He sent a prophet, Elijah, and that prophet brought rain from Heaven and destroyed the power of those voices. I’m not saying they’re not going to be here, but they’re not going to rule over Israel; they’re not going to rule over the Christ that wants to rule and reign here.
“I Will Shine Upon Israel, and I Will Show the World that They Cannot Curse It”
And the Spirit of the Lord says, “I will not provide for Israel only; I will provide from Israel out, and they shall come and they shall say, ‘Provide for us.’” All over! In other words, Israel shall become a resource not to themselves only but to the rest of the world. They will have people that will purchase it, and this shall prosper Israel even more. Think about what I’ve just said by the Spirit. In other words, the resource is not just for Israel. It’s going to go out as well so that Israel will become more prosperous and more prosperous; and as Isaac, they will prosper so much so that their enemies will be so jealous, provoked to jealousy, and say, “Why Israel again? Why does Israel again be blessed? Why is it that from its soil, which we have cursed, has blessing come forth again?” They will be provoked to jealousy as the Philistines were provoked to jealousy with Isaac. Isaac, in that year, prospered a hundredfold. Think about it. They were provoked and said, “Leave us; leave us.”
And so it shall be again that this resource and many others, many other resources that come from the soil – what will happen is, they will say, “OK, we will purchase from you. We will purchase from you,” and Israel will then be blessed to a greater degree, and again, there will be provocation upon provocation, but God says, “I will shine upon Israel, and I will show the world that they cannot curse it, for what God has blessed, they must bless, and they will bless it.”
And God says, “If they curse it, I shall curse them. Did I not say that to Abraham? Did I not say whoever blesses you, I will bless, and whoever curses you, I will curse? And therefore, that is why they’ve been cursed. They’ve been cursed from the top down, for they have cursed Israel.” And God said, “That shall change. There shall be those that shall begin to bless it, and then they shall be blessed as well. That blessing shall be contained and shall be seen by the world.”
God is Going to Bless America Again
It was like the Lord was saying, “This is not all for Israel. Israel doesn’t need all this; it’s for the world, and the world will have to, in the end, come to them, and America will bless Israel.” I’m telling you, America is going to bless Israel in the next presidency. They will bless Israel, and you know what’s going to happen? Because of that, God’s going to bless America again.

If you want to see a way to stabilize world economic fundamentals, watch this film and understand its meaning. Without peace there can be no means of support of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. This gives us tomorrow to do the economic accounting of the days meaning to create for our lives. Don’t let the Social Engineers of this world dupe us down without debate to this fundamental understanding, they are after all reacting to a selfishness that exists within themselves for their own way of life, and if you don’t believe that take a look at who we all are seeing in the top positions of authority within our society …. Right down to the very extremist that just got appointed to the head of OPEC. These are positions that can do one of 2 things: increase supply for higher quality of life or restrict that which provides abundance to the masses for a better quality of life. All I hear is the latter by wealth redistribution and greater regulations, so prepare….
Introduction to the movie “Heart Cry”:
This Film is about Israel’s and God’s “Heart Cry” to the nations. The perspective of your future will change forever. This film made by Emanuel Nahum is a wake-up call and a challenge to become aware of the threat that Iran poses not only to Israel but to the whole world. While Ahmadinejad denies the holocaust he prepares another one. In this film you will see Ahmadinejad’s secret plan, one you could never have even imagined.
