ISRAEL UPDATENovember 23, 2003 - The prophet Daniel outlined a deceptive plan for peace that would seduce the nation of Israel into a false sense of security. Halfway through this period the covenant will be eradicated, and then all hell will literally break loose in the tiny nation.
On October 27, 2003 Israeli Prime Minister Arial Sharon met with 170 European parliamentary members from 24 countries.
This group was visiting Israel and Jordan to better understand the problems in the Israeli / Palestinian conflict. Now there is another plan conceived in Brussels Belgium that would combine Iraq, Egypt, and Israel.
Those supporting this plan and say it is needed so that NATO can create a secure Europe and stabilize Iraq after their democracy is established. They also believe that the world needs a “force on the horizon” to help with this process.
With NATO forces stabilized, this would then force Israel to accept Iraqi and Egyptian peacekeepers under the guise of American supervision.
Think of the ramifications. . . Egypt currently teeters on the verge of takeover by Fundamental Islam… they also allow terrorists to dig tunnels from Egypt to Gaza to battle Israel. Iraq has the possibility of being taken over by Shiite Muslims… who are very anti-American and definitely anti-Israel. Both of these countries intended to attack Israel simultaneously in 1990 - prior to Desert Storm.
As we look upon the prophetic horizon, we see 10 economic rulers arising out of Europe combined with the oil-rich Arab states. The 70 weeks prophecy of Daniel becomes more relevant and eminent with each passing day…
November 23, 2003 – No one was better at confronting the hypocritical lifestyles of people than Jesus, because He was the Word of G-d in the spirit - there was no place to hide.
His three closest followers, Peter, James, and John - all good Jews, saved and filled with the spirit - manifested the concept of the G-dly lifestyle through their own inspired writings.
II Peter 1:3 says, “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and G-dliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:"
Our knowledge of Him comes through His word. That same knowledge covers all aspects of our lives and our walk with G-d, we need nothing else.
James 2: 10, “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” Again the concept of a G-dly lifestyle shows us G-d's law is conceptual - one violation breaks the boundary of G-d’s parameters. It tells all of us. . . sin is sin.
I John 2:4,5 states, “He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of G-d perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.”
So when Christians say they are not bound by the Law, then the question must be asked… “Then to what are you bound?”
Jesus, Peter, James, John, and Paul were Jews. One was the Savior of the world, the rest His devout followers. The lives of men changed because of their salvation experience and the power of the Holy Spirit, as they used the Torah as the teaching base for themselves and all those they discipled.
