What a complete fool...

Ahmadinejad's war of words with filthy Israel
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's president, has once more threatened Israel, declaring that the "filthy" Jewish state's days are numbered and that it will collapse...In a speech given in the southern Iranian city of Bushehr, carried live on state-run television and directed at world leaders, Ahmadinejad advised listeners to "abandon the filthy Zionist entity which has reached the end of the line."

The God of Israel and your Creator saw you coming a long time ago...

Psalm 83:
1 O God, do not be silent!
Do not be deaf.
Do not be quiet, O God.
2 Don’t you hear the uproar of your enemies?
Don’t you see that your arrogant enemies are rising up?
3 They devise crafty schemes against your people;
they conspire against your precious ones.
4 “Come,” they say, “let us wipe out Israel as a nation.
We will destroy the very memory of its existence.”
5 Yes, this was their unanimous decision.
They signed a treaty as allies against you—
6 these Edomites and Ishmaelites;
Moabites and Hagrites;
7 Gebalites, Ammonites, and Amalekites;
and people from Philistia and Tyre.
8 Assyria has joined them, too,
and is allied with the descendants of Lot.
Interlude
9 Do to them as you did to the Midianites
and as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.
10 They were destroyed at Endor,
and their decaying corpses fertilized the soil.

Barak: We think Iran’s nuclear program is much beyond the level of the Manhattan Project
In an interview for Newsweek by Lally Weymouth, the Israeli defense minister said: We think that they [the Iranians] are quite advanced… working on warheads for ground-to-ground missiles…We think that they are quite advanced, much beyond the level of the Manhattan Project [which developed the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II].”

The situation in LBL territory is screaming 'Gog & Magog/Armageddon' , and the world is sitting idly by, worrying about the downturn in the financial markets. Without Christ, that should be the very least of their worries.

The Lion-Bear-Leopard territory of Daniel 7 and Revelation 13 is calling the world to the final war today!

Revelation 16:
12 Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great Euphrates River (the nerve center of America's battle against Islam), and it dried up so that the kings from the east could march their armies toward the west without hindrance. 13 And I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs leap from the mouths of the dragon (Satan), the beast (the Leopard, Bear,Lion beast of Revelation 13 and Daniel 7), and the false prophet (Mohammad is the false prophet of the abomination of desolation, aka the al Aqsa Mosque, sitting on Mount Moriah, "on a wing of the temple"-Daniel 9:27). 14 They are demonic spirits who work miracles and go out to all the rulers of the world to gather them for battle against the Lord on that great judgment day of God the Almighty. (The Day of the Lord is coming soon)

15 “Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief! Blessed are all who are watching for me, who keep their clothing ready so they will not have to walk around naked and ashamed.” (Jesus' one and only coming for His people coincides with this final battle)

16 And the demonic spirits gathered all the rulers and their armies to a place with the Hebrew name Armageddon.

Daniel 9:
27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' In the middle of the 'seven' he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing of the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.

The al Aqsa mosque, unabashedly has inscriptions on its walls stating:

and this is straight out of the Quran - Sura 4, verses 171 and 172 (I shutter to even quote these verses):

The Quran (in red lettering, with my comments)

4:171 O People of the Scripture! (Christians) Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter aught concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah (Jesus is not the Son of God), and His word which He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers, and say not "Three" - Cease! (denial of the Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit) (it is) better for you! - Allah is only One God. Far is it removed from His Transcendent Majesty that He should have a son (blatant denial of Jesus as the Son of God!!). His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as Defender.

4:172 The Messiah will never scorn to be a slave unto Allah (Jesus would claim to be nothing more than a slave to Allah. Who's Allah? Certainly not the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob! Jesus clearly/unambiguously claimed to be the Son of God), nor will the favoured angels. Whoso scorneth His service and is proud, all such will He assemble unto Him

1John 4:
2This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.

Summary:
- The true church of Christ and God's elect (the Jews) are facing their last enemy-Islam.
- Islam's Dome of the Rock (the al Aqsa mosque) is the abomination of desolation on the Holy of Holies. Abominations to the only God are written all over its walls.
- The Dome of the Rock is literally "on the wing" of the destroyed temples (Daniel 9:27)
- The Dome of the Rock is preventing Jews (Daniel's people) from worshiping and offering sacrifices on the site of the 1st and 2nd temples on Mount Moriah.
- Only Jesus Christ Himself will personally defeat Islam, with the glory of His coming.

Rejoice (and wake up and 'smell the coffee', if you haven't already! It's prophetic, and therefore no surprise, that so many are asleep in the last (Laodicean) church of Revelation 3?) fellow Christians because Christ is coming soon to end this final battle. Ahmadinejad has no idea what is about to hit him right between the eyes. Ahmadinejad can plan and scheme to obliterate God's elect, the Jews, from the face of the earth. But the re-gathered remnant of Jacob is now safe and flourishing under the watchful eyes of the Creator of all (somebody should tell Mr. Bush what is really going on!)

"Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand!"

Gaza breakout into Israel next
A SENIOR Hamas official warned yesterday that the next breakout from the Gaza Strip could be into Israel, with 500,000 Palestinians attempting to march towards the towns and villages from which they or their parents fled or were expelled 60 years ago.

Mubarak pulls Eyptian border forces out of N. Sinai, Hamas gains territory
Announcing that Egypt would not expel the hundreds of thousands of Gazan Palestinians who continue to cross the broken border fence into N. Sinai, President Hosni Mubarak redeployed his special border force from the Gazan border to points south of El Arish, Bir Lahfan and Abu Aweigila. This step effectively handed over to the control of Hamas-led Palestinian terrorist organizations and al Qaedal a northernnorthern Sinai enclave of roughly 855 sq, km., twice the area of the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.

Home prices fell in '07 for the first time in decades
The median price declined 1.8 percent to $217,800, the first annual decline since reliable records began in 1968. “It’s the first price decline in many, many years and possibly going back to the Great Depression,” said the group’s chief economist

Let market crash now or face financial train wreck
The Fed's continued obsession with slashing interest rates and printing money in order to maintain the facade of the grossly overvalued stock market while the dollar collapses is precipitating a financial holocaust. Yuppies need to cut their losses and accept a soft crash now or place the very pillars of the American economy in danger.

Israel to work out land return to 'Palestinians'
The nation of Israel must work with Palestinians to determine how much land will be ceded by the Jewish nation, according to a spokeswoman for President Bush.

Genesis 12:
1 The LORD had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you.

2 "I will make you into a great nation
and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.

3 I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you."

Did this blessing flow through to Ishmael or to Isaac? The answer is obvious, and will become even more obvious as this end time progresses.

"A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five."

Hamas beats Israel's Gaza Siege
It took explosives to do what diplomacy couldn't: allow Palestinians to go on a shopping spree. The siege of Gaza, imposed by Israel and the international community after Hamas seized control of the Palestinian territory last July, ended abruptly before dawn on Wednesday when militants blew as many as 15 holes in the border wall separating the territory from Egypt.

Ugh!! I think I'm addicted to this blogging thing (especially on such an important topic) ...

This picture is "a bit" of an exaggeration, but it gets attention

New_Beginning posted information on asteroid TU24 in my last comments section, and I've been reading about it occasionally ever since. I'm not sure if this is a credible threat, but if it is, and depending on where it hit, IF it hit, it could be used by governments (U.S. or other) to achieve some malicious intent. [Note: Wars are a great way to avoid economic crisis. BTW: Watch Wall Street open today. All foreign markets were WAY down yesterday due to the sub-prime mortgage mess.]

TU24 may just be an internet hoax, but if it's legit' and it has a literal impact around January 29, things could change very quickly, if you know what I mean.

Wall Street braces for a trading plunge

You should be getting ready (Jerry Golden)
For several years I’ve been saying that Bush has made a deal with the Saudis to destroy Israel and for a long time I’ve been attacked for saying that, this time will be no exception. Bush has brought God’s righteous judgment on the US and it is now too late for it to be turned around. Still the masses refuse to believe that much of what is happening in the US in the way of storms, drought, fires and floods are direct result to God’s Word in Gen. 12:3. And because the US Government has still refused to hear the voice of God or heed to His Word more and much worse is on the way.

Hello,

I will be taking a break from publishing on this blog for about one month. So unless Gog & Magog and/or Armageddon break out in the meantime (could happen), I will not be posting updates. This is for no special reason, other than I feel I would benefit from taking a step back, and thinking about some other things. I think of it as a mini-sabbatical...although I can’t seem to get away from my day job :o(

God bless,

Endtime.

Moskva missile carrier takes part in big Russian navy maneuver in Mediterranean starting Tuesday
Russia has drawn eleven warships from its Black Sea and Atlantic Northwest fleets for a joint war game in the Mediterranean to underline its drive for a naval presence in all the world’s seas and oceans. They will rendezvous off Malta Tuesday, Jan. 15...
Air carrier Admiral Kutznetsov is on current missions in the Mediterranean, escorted by four ships, including the large anti-submarine Admiral Levchenko and the command and supply ship Sergei Osipov . On its decks are 47 Su-33 fighter-bombers and 10 helicopters.

This discussion will determine the time humanity has left on this earth (no pressure). If the 'Palestinians' and Israeli's come to a temporary peace, the unrepentant have a little more time to be reconciled to their Maker, only possible through Christ. We live in an incredible time period, which will only be truly appreciated when this age is over.

Talks on core issues to be launched Monday Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, head of the Israeli negotiations team, and former Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia, head of the Palestinian negotiation team, will meet Monday for a first discussion on the core issues, which include Jerusalem, the settlements, the Palestinian refugees, the borders, security and the water resources.

Former chief Rabbi to Bush: Don't act against God’s will
The Rabbi stressed that “he prays for peace, as does any individual who believes in God,” but that “anyone who accepts the bible as the word of God must keep in mind that God had promised the land of Israel to the Jewish people alone. The Ishmaelites have no part of this divine guarantee.”

Key words from President Bush regarding Israel:

Bush tells Israel: End the occupation
Later in the day, in a dramatic, unscheduled statement read to US-based reporters at the King David Hotel, Bush said the contours of the two-state solution were clear.

"There should be an end to the occupation that began in 1967," Bush said. He added, in language indicating a rejection of the idea of Palestinian refugees flowing into Israel, "The agreement must establish Palestine as a homeland for the Palestinian people, just as Israel is a homeland for the Jewish people."

The president went on: "These negotiations must ensure that Israel has secure, recognized, and defensible borders. And they must ensure that the state of Palestine is viable, contiguous, sovereign and independent."

Bush said that reaching an agreement would require "painful concessions" by both Israel and the Palestinians.

What painful concessions are required of the so-called "Palestinians"? They will have to forgo launching Kassams and homocide bombers against Israel? Hardly a 'painful concession'. Israel has every right to wipe out her enemies in Gaza and the West Bank (etc.) in retaliation for these kinds of attacks. Just like the US navy will retaliate against Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards if the IRG pulls another stunt in the Strait of Hormuz.

What exactly does President Bush mean by ensuring a contiguous Palestine state? Is he proposing a bridge between Gaza and Judea and Samaria (aka "the West Bank")?

"While territory is an issue for both parties to decide, I believe that any peace agreement between them will require mutually agreed adjustments to the armistice lines of 1949 to reflect current realities and to ensure that the Palestinian state is viable and contiguous," Bush said.

Reducing Israel's territory back to indefensible 1949 borders is not advisable. God is not pleased with such a statement coming from even a naive Christian president. Any nation that requires Israel to give up more of it's God-given land will be punished.

Interestingly, and not at all coincidentally, Bush's visit to Israel is during the 3,500 year anniversary of Zechariah's vision in Zechariah chapter 1. What does the angel of God say at the end of chapter 1, regarding nations that "humble" Judah (by forcing land concessions) ?

Zechariah 1 (emphasis mine):
18 Then I looked up and saw four animal horns. 19 “What are these?” I asked the angel who was talking with me.

He replied, “These horns represent the nations that scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”

20 Then the Lord showed me four blacksmiths. 21 “What are these men coming to do?” I asked.

The angel replied, “These four horns—these nations—scattered and humbled Judah. Now these blacksmiths have come to terrify those nations and throw them down and destroy them.”

God have mercy on President Bush and on the United States of America

More details on this 3,500 year old prophesy, here at Bill Koenig's site:

Update from Jerusalem:
The 3500 Year Biblical Connection
to President Bush's Arrival in
Israel on the Jewish Calendar
Date - Sevat 1

Bush’s 1,500-strong Secret Service unit occupies Palestinian government center in Ramallah for his first visit
Compared with US-Israeli security cooperation for the president’s first day in Israel, the US force cut Palestinian security officials out of the loop. Armed with an amazing arsenal of hardware and electronics, they cordoned the Ramallah government center off with a one-kilometer deep “sterile zone” - closed even to the Palestinian presidential guard and the media Abbas’ office furniture was replaced with American products.

In the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, angry mobs burned Bush banners and US flags Wednesday, called on West Bank leaders to arrest the US president as a terrorist and war criminal responsible for murdering their “Iraqi brethren,” and denounced Abbas and Fayyad as traitors and American stooges. More fury is expected to be poured out at Friday prayers in Palestinian mosques.

Thinking that the Palestinians and Israeli's will live in perfect peace starting in a year, in adjacent, but separate states IS COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS!! No offense intended, but the Christian president looks like a fool to true believers (note: I still pray for President Bush).

This battle will only end when all of Israel's enemies are vaporized. I know this doesn't sound diplomatic, hopeful (for them), or politically correct but that's what the Bible says...that is what is going to happen. May more people be given eyes to see before that day.

Revelation 19:
11I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war. 12His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. 13He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. 14The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. 15Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron scepter."^[a] He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. 16On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:
KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

17And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in midair, "Come, gather together for the great supper of God, 18so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and mighty men, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, small and great."

19Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and his army. 20But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. 21The rest of them were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.

Real budget deficit: $4 trillion
Economist says federal government 'bankrupt'
The real 2007 federal budget deficit was $4 trillion, not a previously reported $163 billion, an economist contends.

As an accountant, I can tell you that the government should be reporting future liabilities for social security and medicare, and not just reporting on a cash in/out basis. In other words, some of that cash coming in today is SUPPOSED to be for the social security and medicare of tomorrow.

Here's a video about where most Americans will soon be spending their retirement. The turnstiles are a nice touch in this abandoned rail yard, and the building with gas lines along the outside of the building hasn't been done since...Auschwitz (??)

Following God's Script

Psalm 74

A psalm of Asaph.

Psa 74:1	A psalm of Asaph. O God, why have you rejected us forever? Why is your anger so intense against the sheep of your own pasture?
Psa 74:2	Remember that we are the people you chose in ancient times, the tribe you redeemed as your own special possession! And remember Jerusalem,[fn1] your home here on earth.
Psa 74:3	Walk through the awful ruins of the city; see how the enemy has destroyed your sanctuary.
Psa 74:4	There your enemies shouted their victorious battle cries; there they set up their battle standards.
Psa 74:5	They chopped down the entrance like woodcutters in a forest.
Psa 74:6	With axes and picks, they smashed the carved paneling.
Psa 74:7	They set the sanctuary on fire, burning it to the ground. They utterly defiled the place that bears your holy name.
Psa 74:8	Then they thought, "Let's destroy everything!" So they burned down all the places where God was worshiped.
Psa 74:9	We see no miraculous signs as evidence that you will save us. All the prophets are gone; no one can tell us when it will end.
Psa 74:10	How long, O God, will you allow our enemies to mock you? Will you let them dishonor your name forever?
Psa 74:11	Why do you hold back your strong right hand? Unleash your powerful fist and deliver a deathblow.
Psa 74:12	You, O God, are my king from ages past, bringing salvation to the earth.
Psa 74:13	You split the sea by your strength and smashed the sea monster's heads.
Psa 74:14	You crushed the heads of Leviathan and let the desert animals eat him.
Psa 74:15	You caused the springs and streams to gush forth, and you dried up rivers that never run dry.
Psa 74:16	Both day and night belong to you; you made the starlight[fn2] and the sun.
Psa 74:17	You set the boundaries of the earth, and you make both summer and winter.
Psa 74:18	See how these enemies scoff at you, Lord. A foolish nation has dishonored your name.
Psa 74:19	Don't let these wild beasts destroy your doves. Don't forget your afflicted people forever.
Psa 74:20	Remember your covenant promises, for the land is full of darkness and violence!
Psa 74:21	Don't let the downtrodden be constantly disgraced! Instead, let these poor and needy ones give praise to your name.
Psa 74:22	Arise, O God, and defend your cause. Remember how these fools insult you all day long.
Psa 74:23	Don't overlook these things your enemies have said. Their uproar of rebellion grows ever louder.

Eventually this prayer will be answered, and the script defining this age will end.

Wake up brothers and sisters in Christ!
We live in an incredible time in post-1967!

This is the same thing I posted yesterday, but someone made it into a video - Good Stuff!

If this interpretation of Daniel's prophesies is true, then every other interpretation of Daniel 7:25 and Daniel 12:7 is DEAD WRONG! This interpretation of these two prophesies points directly to 1948 and 1967 - two monumental years in Israel's recent history. That's not a coincidence, folks!

Don't be caught napping in the Laodicean church (of Revelation 3) when Christ returns because that church describes the vast majority of "Christ's" churches today.

We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven. We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power, as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us! It behooves us then, to humble ourselves before the offended Power, to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness.

-Abraham Lincoln, March 30, 1863

Ignorance will not be bliss

Ignorance at its most ignorant

'Olmert, Jordan's King Abdullah II discuss division of Jerusalem' Abdullah II told Olmert that he had to stand up to commitments he made in the past, and begin making public statements regarding the division of Jerusalem.

Jerusalem was back in the hands of Israel in 1967, which is a time, times, and half a time (aka 2,500 years) after Israel lost dominion over it. Is God going to let foreigners once again control it? I doubt it. It'll be interesting to see where this goes. My bet is the earth doesn't have much life left in it.

10But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.

2 Peter 3:10


Daniel 7:25 was prophesied by Daniel in the 1st year of Belshazzar (see Daniel 7:1). exactly 2500 years thereafter, Israel was re-born in a single day (see Isaiah 66:8) on May 14, 1948 .

In the 3rd year of Cyrus (Daniel 10:1), Daniel prophesied that Jerusalem would be freed from Gentile rule exactly 2,500 years later. 2,500 years after the 3rd year of Cyrus is 1967. Israel re-captured Jerusalem after the 6-day war on June 7, 1967.

Coincidence? If I believed that was a coincidence, I'd be crazy enough to believe in evolution!

2 Peter 3:10 is the "global warming" everyone should be preparing for with trembling and sincere humility. It looks like we're about to meet the Maker.

Don't put your trust in money. Many analysts say we're in for a rough ride in 2008.

"Now what have you against me, O Tyre and Sidon (Lebanon) and all you regions of Philistia (Gaza)? Are you repaying me for something I have done? If you are paying me back, I will swiftly and speedily return on your own heads what you have done.

Joel 3:4

The remnant of Israel is currently being (especially) threatened by terrorist groups Hezb'allah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza. Therefore is Joel 3:4 talking about our present day? IF it is, most people are in for a rude awakening - the Day of the Lord. Keep reading Joel chapter 3 to see how it will end, and then prepare for the sun and moon to go dark.

Isaiah 13:
6 Scream in terror, for the day of the Lord has arrived—
the time for the Almighty to destroy.
7 Every arm is paralyzed with fear.
Every heart melts,
8 and people are terrified.
Pangs of anguish grip them,
like those of a woman in labor.
They look helplessly at one another,
their faces aflame with fear.
9 For see, the day of the Lord is coming—
the terrible day of his fury and fierce anger.
The land will be made desolate,
and all the sinners destroyed with it.
10 The heavens will be black above them;
the stars will give no light.
The sun will be dark when it rises,
and the moon will provide no light.

God said it - it IS coming.
Jesus is the only way to escape!

The LBL alive and well in Pakistan

...US officials claim that Pakistan's nuclear arsenal is secure and under the full control of the military. Yet given the Pakistani military's sympathy for al-Qaida and the Taliban, it is irresponsible not to consider the possibility that at least some of the forces charged with securing Pakistan's nuclear arsenal have operational links to the jihadists.

Back in Pakistan, the Taliban and al-Qaida have violently transformed the safe havens Musharraf provided them in 2001 into independent enclaves from which they have launched their campaign to take control of the entire country. The fact that Bhutto was murdered in Rawalpindi - the garrison of the Pakistani security forces - is a testament to the deep tentacles of jihad in the Pakistani establishment...
