A member of the Hamas-led Palestinian government says the Koran is their constitution and Jihad their future
Chanting 'Allah is greatest' after the vote, Hamas parliamentarians hugged and kissed Ismail Haniyeh, the PA Prime Minister who vowed never to abandon the fight against Israel.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The statement by a Palestinian Authority (PA) parliamentary member that the Koran is the Palestinian constitution and Jihad or 'holy war' is their plan, is a page out of Bible prophecy for the Last Days. World leaders have voiced concern about the election of the PA parliament that included an overwhelming majority of Hamas members.
The concern has been that Hamas, a recognized terror group, would use its philosophy of 'holy war' in the Palestinian struggle against Israel. Hamas has said continually that they will never recognize the right of the Jewish people to have a state in the Middle East. Hamas has also vowed to see an end to the present Jewish state and to take all the land as a Palestinian state. This report is indeed a page out of a prophetic scenario found in the ancient Jewish prophecies.
The prophet Malachi foretold that the Edomites, the descendants of Esau or in other words the Palestinian people today, would rebuild a nation in the land of Israel in the Last Days; that's found in Malachi 1:3-4. This prophetic passage also says that God will call their borders the borders of wickedness and that God will have indignation against these people forever. The ancient Jewish prophet, Ezekiel said in Ezekiel 35 that these descendants of Esau, the Palestinians, will be judged for killing the Jewish people and taking the land that God had given to the Jewish people; that's Ezekiel 35:5, 10-13.
A call for Jihad or 'holy war' by a member of the Hamas-led Palestinian government is indeed a page out of Bible prophecy that will be fulfilled.

Ehud Olmert says that the recent Israeli election marked a new chapter in Israel's history
Olmert said that Israel will move to set the final borders of the state of Israel, a Jewish state with a Jewish majority, and in setting these borders there will be many Jewish settlements that will be destroyed, a move that the Jewish settlers oppose and a unilateral move that the Palestinians and the Arab world reject.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
To give away land that God has given the Jewish people and say it marks a new chapter in Israel's history is in contradiction of Bible prophecy for the Last Days on this issue. Political pundents say that the recent Israeli national election was actually a referendum on the Jewish settlements since the political party with the most elected members of the Knesset, the Kadima Party, ran on a platform of disengagement from the Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria.
Many students of Bible prophecy have questioned why the leadership of Israel, the Jewish state, would even consider giving away land that the Lord gave to the Jewish people. It's a tuff question to answer, but there is no question about the ultimate end of the land in question, the land that one day will be in the hands of the Jewish people, that is according to Bible prophecy.
The ancient Jewish prophet, Ezekiel wrote that God would bring the Jewish people into a land, a land of their forefathers. Ezekiel also said that the land would prosper under Jewish leadership; both of these promises in Ezekiel's prophecy found in chapter 36. Ezekiel 35 reveals that the Edomites, the people of Mount Seir, or the Palestinian people of today, would try and take the land that God had given the Jewish people.
An Israeli election that brings to power a leader who wants to give away the land of Israel is stage setting for the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

A former director of Israel's Mossad Intelligence Agency says the world is on the eve of WWIII
Amit, one of the most esteemed figures in the International Defense Establishment, warned Islamic nations and global Islamic groups will continue launching all kinds of attacks against Western states. The former Mossad leader has urged the international community to immediately unite and coordinate a strategy to fight against the Islamic war, but he said that the world is not uniting; they are ignoring the problem.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
A warning from a former director of Israel's Mossad Intelligence Agency that the world is on the verge of WWIII is a page out of Bible prophecy for the Last Days. Recent terror attacks against Israel, attacks in Europe and the US, plus Iran's alleged nuclear ambitions, the insurgency in Iraq and the worldwide Muslim riots over the cartoon of Mohammed, have been cited by the former Chief of the Mossad as evidence that the world is on the eve of WWIII.
As I mentioned before, this report is actually a page out of the scenario found in Bible prophecy for the Last Days. The ancient Jewish prophets Daniel, in Daniel 11, Ezekiel, Ezekiel 38, and Joel, in Joel 2, all speak of a time when nations will align themselves against Israel; nations that are today the Islamic nations in our world.
The prophet Joel even reveals that a mighty militia will form to complete the mission to take out Israel. This type of action would draw all the other nations into the battle and thus a world war; by the way that is found in Joel 2:2-3.
The warning of World War III coming soon made by the former Israeli Mossad Chief is indeed a page out of Bible prophecy, seemingly moving towards fulfillment very soon now.

Israeli PM Ariel Sharon is absent from Israel's elections but his presence is felt
Israel's borders are closed to Palestinians and Israeli security officials have placed the entire state on high alert in anticipation of a terrorist attack by a Palestinian radical group hoping to disrupt election day in Israel. The latest polls show that no political party will win enough seats to be able to vote into power their party's candidate for Prime Minister, but instead will be called upon to form a coalition government to lead Israel into the future.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The fact that national elections are being held in Israel today is evidence that Bible prophecy has already been fulfilled and will be fulfilled in the near future.
Within a month or two, the entire political landscape changed here in Israel with Ariel Sharon, one of the founders of the Likud political party, resigning from the leadership of his party and forming an altogether new political party.
Even though PM Sharon lies unconscious in a hospital bed here in Jerusalem, his presence is being highly felt throughout the entire political spectrum of Israel. Human government is an institution set in place by the Lord Himself some 4,500 years ago and recorded in Genesis 9:6. God uses human government to lead this world towards his plan for mankind; that's Revelation 17:17.
God has been regathering the Jewish people into the land that He has promised them, and He restored this regathered people into a nation; that's Ezekiel 34, 37:1-14. The Lord has a plan for His chosen people; a plan that will be played out according to God's prophetic scenario in His Word.
Election day in Israel is a sign that Bible prophecy will indeed be fulfilled.

The Majority of Israelis are willing to give up parts of Jerusalem for real peace with the Palestinians
Even though a majority of Israeli Jews are ready to make concessions on Jerusalem, 75% of those polled admitted they do not believe that 'real peace' with the Palestinians is a possibility.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Israelis willing to make concessions on the borders of Jerusalem in order to be able to get peace is an indication that Bible prophecy, related to the Jews and Jerusalem, is nearing the time of fulfillment of these ancient prophecies. There has been a fundamental change in the general opinion with regard to Jerusalem since the 2003 election when there was a near consensus that the borders of Jerusalem were non-negotiable.
Even the politicians in Israel today are starting to mention plans that include the giveaway of portions of the city of Jerusalem, a city that was only reunited after 2,000 years at the end of the Six-Day War in 1967. Present-day concessions on Jerusalem will lead to the End Times scenario that is found in Bible prophecy.
Zechariah 12:2 says that those who have control of Jerusalem will be intoxicated with power. Zechariah 1:12-16 says that God is aggressively possessive of Jerusalem and will return to Jerusalem and build His Temple here. Isaiah 51:3, Joel 2:3, and Ezekiel 36:35 say that Jerusalem will be returned to the Garden of Eden. The Psalmist wrote that God has chosen Jerusalem as the place where He will rule and reign from and dwell among His people forever; that's Psalm 132:13, 14.
Israel making concessions on the borders of Jerusalem is indeed a step closer, in fact a giant step closer, to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

Former Chief Rabbi Calls the Palestinians, "Amalekites"
During the Jewish holy day of Purim, the villain of the Biblical story of Ester was Haman, who the Rabbi says was a descendent of Amalek. Amalek was an enemy of the Jewish people from the time of Moses, when the Amalekites tried to annihilate the Jewish people. The Rabbi says that the first king of Israel failed to be obedient when he was told to wipe out all of the Amalekites which resulted in Haman's plan to kill all of the Jews and the present day Palestinian terrorist slaughter of the Jewish people.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
A call by a former chief rabbi of Israel to annihilate the Palestinian terrorists and their families because they are descendants of Amalek is part of the End Times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy. The startling announcement by the former chief rabbi of Israel that the Palestinians are descendants of Amalek and must be annihilated may shock many people, but there is biblical history to back up this statement of the Palestinian connection to Amalek and biblical prophecy that does call for the annihilation of these descendants of Amalek.
The prophet Malachi records that God says the borders of the people of Amalek, the Palestinians of today, would be the borders of wickedness; that's Malachi 1. Ezekiel says that the Amalekites will kill the Jews in the Last Days and try to take their land from them; that's Ezekiel 35. Jeremiah says that the Amalekites will be destroyed and be as if they had never been; Jeremiah 49:18.
The fact is, that the Amalekites come from Amalek who was a grandson of Esau, Jacob's brother; Genesis 36:12. God told the mother of Jacob and Esau, who were twin brothers, that each of them would father a people; Genesis 25:23. Jacob became the father of the Jewish people and Esau, through his grandson Amalek, became the father of the Palestinian people. Though the rabbi's call to annihilate Palestinian murderers is indeed shocking, the prophet Obadiah says that's exactly what will happen at the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ.
According to this report, the stage seems to be set for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The UN has a plan for peace by ending all nation-states
The UN says an unprecedented outbreak of cooperation between countries, applied through six specific financial tools, would serve as pretty much a cure-all for the world's ills. The authors of this ambitious plan don't expect nations to fold up right away, but to start the ball rolling today for the future.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
A UN plan to bring an end to nation states as we know them today, a plan to bring about world peace is a page out of Bible prophecy for the Last Days. World leaders have for decades been looking for a way to bring about world peace, to fight global terrorism, to stop the spread of pandemic disease, and to have a world economically prosperous.
Over five decades ago, the UN was formed to help establish peace in our world through the cooperation of all the member states. Efforts by the UN have been foiled by elements in this world that only want to continue conflict in order to help foster their plans for world domination. Now, a draft visionary proposal from the UN to bring an end to nation-states as we know them and thus bring about world peace.
This report is almost word-for-word the scenario described in Bible prophecy for the End Times. The ancient Jewish prophet, Daniel prewrote history in Daniel 9:27 where we read that the coming world leader, the Antichrist, will bring about world peace, howbeit a pseudo peace that will be short lived. This Antichrist will also setup a nationless world that he rules over from Babylon, Revelation 18.
The new UN draft visionary plan for world peace in a nationless world is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Pope Benedict is worried by a global upsurge of AntiSemitic activity
Pope Benedict said that Jews and Christians have a common mission to denounce and combat hate, injustice, and violence that is at the heart of AntiSemitism.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Pope Benedict's expressed concerns about the global upsurge in AntiSemitism is in conflict with a future world religious leader who will lead the way in AntiSemitic activities, that is according to Bible prophecy. Many Jewish leaders have been warning that there is a definite upsurge in AntiSemitism around the world and now Pope Benedict has joined the chorus to decry these acts of violence against Jews in our world today.
AntiSemitism has been on the increase in Europe for the last two years and many have attributed this upsurge in European AntiSemitism to the population increase in the Muslim communities across Europe. Pope Benedict, who is only the second pope to visit a Jewish synagogue, has been working to draw attention to the hatred and violence in our world which fosters AntiSemitism, so he says, and now urges a joint mission between Jews and Christians to combat this rise in AntiSemitic activity which the Jewish community welcomes as well.
Interestingly, Bible prophecy reveals that during the future time of Jacob's Trouble another world leader known as the Antichrist, a false messiah, will come to power and will endeavor to annihilate all Jews around the world. Revelation 12:13, 17, reveals that persecution of Jews will intensify near the middle of the seven years of judgment yet to come called the Tribulation. This effort to kill off all Jews will result in two of every three Jews being killed, Zechariah 13:8.
The Pope's call to fight AntiSemitism should remind us of a future world religious leader's role in a time of major AntiSemitic activity. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

Study calls for international supervision of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem
The document, titled "Jerusalem's Historic Basin - a Situation Report and Alternatives for a Solution," states that continued full Israeli sovereignty would be rejected by the Palestinians and the international community. The study reveals that Israeli officials in fact receive international sovereignty on the Temple Mount as a desecration and they will endeavor to fight the implementation of such a plan.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
International sovereignty of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is not only opposed by Israeli officials but is also opposed by God, that is according to Bible prophecy. The Temple Mount in Jerusalem has been the center of Israeli-Palestinian conflicts since Israel gained control of the Temple Mount during the Six-Day War in 1967.
Israeli officials are opposed to international control of the Temple Mount, especially Jerusalem's Mayor Uri Lupolianski who says the proposal is an irresponsible political plan that is simply unacceptable for the most holy site in Judaism which would, as a result of the plan, fall under international control.
Bible prophecy presents a scenario for the End Times that seems to be the next step regarding the Temple Mount. Daniel 9:27, 11:45, both reveal the Antichrist, the one-world, false messiah, will control the Temple Mount during the seven-year Tribulation Period. Zechariah 12:2 says that the Temple Mount will be the center of controversy during that same time period. Also in Zechariah 1:14-16, we see that God's possessiveness of the Temple Mount will lead the Lord to build a Temple there where Jesus Christ, the Messiah, will rule and reign from during the Millennial Kingdom.
A plan to internationalize the Temple Mount in Jerusalem does indeed set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Iraq in the midst of a Civil War - Allawi
The former interim Iraqi prime minister, Iyad Allawi, claims that Iraq is now involved in a civil war. Allawi said the slow process of bringing together a permanent Iraqi government has only allowed the insurgents to foster a civil war among the different factions of the Iraqi people.
However, there are reports coming out of Iraq that 80% of the population believes that they are better off now with Saddam gone, even though there is continuing sectarian violence.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The third anniversary of the allied invasion of Iraq is a time of hope for the future for the Iraqi people. However, Bible prophecy reveals that it will get better before it gets worse.
When the allied forces invaded Iraq three years ago, it seemed as if this military operation would be short-lived and the Iraqi people would be able to get on with their lives. However, an Islamic radical militant element has intensified its efforts to destroy any hope of a democratic government being put in place in what was a treacherous dictatorship under Saddam Hussein.
These last three years have seen historic events unfolding time after time. The latest of these is the election of an Iraqi parliament that will set up a permanent government to lead the Iraqi people into the future. According to Bible prophecy, the future for Iraq is at first good, and then bad.
Revelation 18, Jeremiah 50 - 51, and Isaiah 13 - 14 all indicate that Iraq will become a major player in these Last Days, and then be completely destroyed. This comes better into focus when you understand that modern-day Iraq is biblical Babylon. In the Last Days Babylon is a world power, but is destroyed in one hour, according to Revelation 18:10, 17, and 19.
Current events in Iraq today are indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

A Muslim leader says there is a war going on between the West and Islam and Islam will win
Mullah Krekar said that by 2050 thirty percent of the population of Europe will be Muslim. He also said that the way of thinking in the West was basically egotistical, materialistic, and wild and that the Muslim way of thinking will prove more powerful than the way of thinking in the West.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
As the spread of Islam continues across Europe, a prophetic scenario for the Last Days found in the Bible comes into better focus for the students of Bible prophecy. Recent reports of increasing Muslim populations in Europe confirm the statement by the European Muslim Mullah that by 2050, thirty percent of Europe's population will be Muslim.
In fact, another report says that there are more Muslims in their local European mosque than there are Christians in the churches of Europe on the weekend. The term, "Eurabia," a play on the two words Europe and Arab has been used to refer to Europe and its ever increasing Muslim population. There are also those who say the international war on terrorism is actually a war between the West and the Islamic world.
The statement by Norway's Muslim Mullah that Islam will win the war between the two is an interesting insight into the scenario today that will play out in the Last Days according to Bible prophecy. The ancient Jewish prophet Joel wrote of a massive Muslim militia that will appear on the world scene during the seven year Tribulation Period, that's found in Joel 2:1-3. Ezekiel 38 and Daniel 11 reveal that the nations that today are referred to as Muslim nations will also play a key role in this same time. Daniel 7 refers to the revived Roman Empire, the EU of today, and relates that the revived Roman Empire will join with satanic elements at this same time in history.
The growth of Islam in Europe is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The Iraqi Parliament held its inaugural meeting against a backdrop of increasing predictions of civil war
The opening session of the Iraqi parliament had been postponed after disagreement over who should actually fill the top political jobs. With the unresolved differences between the parties, this obstacle delayed the formation of a new Iraqi government. The continuing deadlock over the Shiite nominee for the key position of Prime Minister stands in the way of forming a national unity government, which all believe is the only hope of saving the country's civil strife and fragmentation that is a clear and present danger.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
As the Iraqi parliament met for its inaugural session in an effort to form its new government, there is a reminder of the prophetic significance of Iraq in the End Times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy. Three months after the historic national elections held in the war torn nation of Iraq, the newly elected parliament held their meeting on the ongoing process to form a government to lead the country into the future.
This equally historic inaugural session of the Iraqi parliament faced the ever increasing pressure to come together to form a strong government to bring an end to the sectarian violence that is tearing the country apart and moving this Middle Eastern nation ever so close to an all-out civil war. It is this backdrop that has political pundents suggesting that a new Iraqi strongman must surface to lead the nation into unity. This scenario, the formation of a new Iraqi government and the emergence of a strong leader at the helm of this government is seemingly a page out of Bible prophecy for the End Times.
Iraq, biblical Babylon, will actually be the center of a worldwide political, economic, governmental power in the future; that's found in Revelation 18. And there will be a strong leader to head up this political world power, he will be known as the AntiChrist as revealed in Revelation 13:12-18 and Daniel 7.
With the formation of a new Iraqi government at hand, the stage is indeed set for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Norway is preparing a doomsday seed bank
There are presently 1400 seed banks around the world, but a large number of these are located in countries that are either politically unstable or that face threats from the natural environment. The Norwegian seed bank vault will preserve the seeds below freezing behind high security blast proof doors with the number of seeds and types of seeds in the bank determined by the country using the seed bank.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
A seed bank dsigned to protect the earth's source of food from global catastrophe or natural disaster is a precursor to a scenario for the last days that can be found in Bible prophecy. With 1400 seed banks around the world, it is clear that world leaders are concerned about the destruction of humankind's source of food.
The Norwegian plan to build a doomsday vault inside a mountain on an arctic island is an indication that these world leaders are not satisfied with the present seed preservation program. The plan to build this vault to hold all known varieties of the world's crops designed to withstand global catastrophies like nuclear war and all natural disasters is evidence of a terrible time to come.
The truth is, Bible prophecy does speak of a day when the waters of the ocean and the rivers of the lands will be totally polluted by blood, Revelation 16:3-4. John the Revelator also records the prophecy of a judgment that will see one-third of the trees on earth destroyed and all the grass burned up, Revelation 8:7. Bible prophecy also speaks of famine, people starving because of no food, Matt 24:7, Revelation 6:5-6.
Norway's doomsday seed bank is man's effort to respond to God's judgment and in the end, God's judgment will prevail. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

A Jewish first Temple period artifact was discovered in piles of rubble from Jerusalem's Temple Mount
Archaeologist Gabriel Barkay and his team have been sifting through tons and tons of rubble discarded and thrown into a Jerusalem city garbage dump where they have found scores of history rich artifacts from the first Temple period.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The discovery of an artifact that dates back to the time of King David found in the rubble from the Temple Mount is a reminder that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled. After sifting through tons and tons of rubble containing artifacts from the first and second Temple periods of Jewish history, the famous Israeli archaeologist Gabriel Barkay discovered a seal, a bulla that connects to the time of King David, the second king of Israel.
This major archaeological find is solid evidence of several things: first, that King David was actually a king of Israel; second, it proves a presence of Jewish people on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, which has been denied by the Muslim world. In fact, the Mufti of Jerusalem told me that there is no evidence that there was ever a Jew on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
This recently discovered first Temple period artifact reminds one of the truth of King David and the covenant God made with him that one of his sons would one day rule and reign from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Second Samuel 7. In fact, Jeremiah, an ancient Jewish prophet promised that as long as there was a day and a night, thus the sun and the moon in operation, God's promise to David would come to pass, Jeremiah 33:14-21.
The discovery of a small seal or bulla from the rubble off the Temple Mount that refers to King David is evidence that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

Jewish people worldwide celebrate the Jewish holy day of Purim
The queen of that world empire in that day was a Jewish queen, Queen Esther, who had a major role in the salvation from death of the Jewish people. The present-day celebration of the Jewish holiday Purim is marked by everyone, especially the children, dressing in the costumes of Queen Esther, King Ahasuerus and the villain, the wicked Haaman. And as Jews in synagogues around the world read through the book of Ester they make a loud demonstration everytime Haaman's name is mentioned.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The modern-day celebration of the Jewish holiday, Purim, is a reminder that the Jewish people will enter into a great time of Jacob's Trouble before the Jewish Messiah, Jesus Christ, comes to save the Jewish people from complete annihilation, that is according to Bible prophecy.
On a yearly basis, Jews around the world will dress up in costumes, eat the Jewish pastry known as Haaman's ear, and celebrate the rescue from total annihilation under the Medo-Persian Empire some 2,500 years ago. In that day, the number two leader of the Medo-Persian Empire was drastically offended when Queen Esther's cousin, Mordecai, failed to bow for Haaman when he entered the city. Under the order of the Persian King Ahasuerus all Jews on earth were condemned to die and had it not been that Queen Esther had come into the kingdom at that time, God's program for the Jewish people would have failed as well. God's plan was for the Jews to return to their ancient homeland, rebuild the Jewish nation, and direct a Temple in Jerusalem for the Messiah so that He could dwell among His people forever.
This year at Purim, the descendants of the ancient Persian Empire, the nation of Iran, has threatened to destroy the Jewish people; that is found in a prophetic scenario in Ezekiel 38:5. The threat of a total annihilation of the Jews, like a time never seen before will set the stage for another rescue before complete annihilation. It will be by a heavenly visitor who will at first stand with them, the Archangel Michael, he will protect the Jews until the Messiah, Jesus Christ, returns to save the Jews and establish His Kingdom with the Jewish people.
Celebration of the Jewish holiday Purim is a reminder that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

Pope Benedict has called for unity and universality of the Church
Since the installation of Pope Benedict, he has reached out to the Jewish community, invited Muslim leaders to the Vatican, and now he is calling for unity and universality among the churches of the world, and agenda Pope Benedict believes is his calling in our world today.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
A call by Pope Benedict for a world-wide unified church has an interesting similarity to the scenario found in Bible prophecy for the last days. The late Pope John Paul was a great believer in unifying the Church and the religions of this world during his time as the head of the Catholic Church. The new Pope Benedict says this universal unity is the main priority of his papacy and that he will do what is necessary to see this unity come about.
This report has a very definite similarity to the prophetic scenario that can be found in God's Word for the religious world in the last days. Revelation 17 that was written by the apostle John some 2,000 years ago describes the coming together of the religions of the world to form a one-world church. This church will be headquartered in the 7 hilled city of Rome, Revelation 17:9, and will be lead by a strong charismatic leader known as the Anti-Christ.
This world-wide church modeled after the mother-son cult started at Babylon some 4,500 years ago will be in place the first half of 7 year Tribulation Period. A call by Pope Benedict for a universal unified church has a similar scenario to the one described in Bible prophecy, Bible prophecy that will be fulfilled.

If the UN Security Council cannot stop Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, Israel will take action
Mofaz, who was actually born in Iran, said that the state of Israel has the right to give all the security that is needed to the people of Israel, "We must defend ourselves", he said. Mofaz said sweeping inspection powers must be given to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to smoke out any secret nuclear arms related activities in Iran; a deep and large inspection within all the nuclear locations in Iran must take place.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Iran will attack Israel with enough force to destroy the Jewish state and Israel will not be able to defend itself, that is according to Bible prophecy. A prolonged back-and-forth has been going on between the UN International Atomic Energy Agency and Iran on Iran's nuclear development program and now to the extent that the IAEA is at the point of forcing the issue to go before the UN Security Council.
Iran's delaying tactics has allowed Iran to enrich enough Uranium to possibly prepare a nuclear weapon in the near future, and Israel is ready to stop Iran if no one else does. Bible prophecy does say that Iran will be one of the coalition of nations that will align itself with other Middle Eastern and Islamic states to try to destroy the Jewish state; that's found in Ezekiel 38:2-6.
That same prophetic passage says that Israel will be incapable of defending itself, but that the Lord will intercede to destroy Israel's enemies, that's found in Ezekiel 38:18-23.
Israel will be defended not by its powerful military, but by the Lord according to Bible prophecy that will be fulfilled.

Israel's ruling political party has plans to give away historically significant Biblical land
Dichter said that Kadima would immediately start working on a new disengagement plan if it won the March 28th ballot and became the leader of the next Israeli government. A division in the Kadima party leadership has emerged even as other party candidates and the Jewish settlers themselves are vowing to not allow any more unilateral withdrawals from Israeli territories, fearing that further disengagement would rip the nation of Israel completely apart.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Additional unilateral withdrawals from Israeli lands, especially the historically significant biblical areas, is a precursor to a prophetic scenario for the Last Days that can be found in Bible prophecy. Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon divided his own nation as he gave the command to withdraw from the Gaza Strip this last summer, displacing some nine thousand Jews from their homes of over thirty years.
The potential for a civil war among Israeli Jews and the work being done by those who want to establish a second Jewish state in the area of Judea and Samaria seem to be the only alternatives to additional unilateral withdrawal from the controversial territories at the center of this issue. One must realize that the Jewish state of Israel is a divided people as they approach the election to bring to power the leaders who will move Israel ahead and into the future. This report is almost describing exactly the scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy for the Last Days.
The ancient, Jewish prophet Ezekiel prewrote history when he called for a time when there would be two Jewish states in the land, that's Ezekiel 37:15-23. Both Jeremiah and Malachi also confirmed this same prophetic scenario, that's found in Jeremiah 3 and Malachi 2.
A political party whose platform is withdrawing from Bible land is indeed a precursor to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy for the Last Days.

Health Organization: Bird Flu has the source of a human flu pandemic is unprecedented in scope
So far, the virus has remained primarily a bird disease, "but when humans do catch it", Dr. Chan said, "it is a very serious disease affecting multiple organs in the body".
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
A human flu pandemic that is unprecedented in its scope today is a foretaste of things to come, that is according to Bible prophecy. WHO, the World Health Organization, has for several years now been warning world leaders that the potential for a world-wide infectious disease pandemic to take place was at hand, and now they have intensified their warning and are calling for world leaders, especially Western world leaders, to get serious about this unprecedented flu pandemic.
Dr. Margaret Chan, the front person for WHO in this fight to stop the spread of this infectious disease in animals, has now issued a warning that the virus from bird flu, until now only spreading between animals, will soon be able to spread to humans and infect them in a very serious manner. The warning that bird flu is the most serious infectious disease of any previous emerging infectious disease in the world is a clear sign that the feared human flu pandemic could be unprecedented in scope in our world today taking literally millions of lives.
Jesus Christ, when asked for signs of His Second Coming, His return to the earth, mentioned pestilence; that's recorded in Matthew 24:7. He said pestilence was a sign. Pestilence is one of those old English words which literally means death from a pandemic spread of disease.
As Dr. Chan of WHO, World Health Organization, has warned, bird flu has the potential to be the fulfillment of the prophetic warning from Jesus Christ.

Israel, Jordan, and the PA have signed an agreement to move ahead on the Peace Canal Deal
The Red-Dead Project will pipe water from 500 ft. above sea level at the Gulf of Aqaba in Jordan on the Red Sea coast to the Dead Sea, 1,300 ft. below sea level, to refill the Dead Sea which has been losing water over the years through evaporation, jeopardizing the Dead Sea industry a major part of the economy of both Jordan and Israel.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The Red-Dead Project, a joint project between Israel and Jordan, will help both nations economically now, but also it is preparing the region and will play a role in the prophetic scenario for the two states in the future according to Bible prophecy. Since the 19th century, there has been talk in the Israeli-Jordanian region about a way to refill the Dead Sea which has been losing water for hundreds of years.
Just over a year ago at an economic conference in Jordan, the two countries discussed the Red-Dead Project which has now been agreed to and is moving ahead. The wealth associated with the Dead Sea to both Jordan and Israel is a major factor in these two countries economically, and thus the reason to move ahead with the project.
Israeli engineers believe that they can use the water and its piping system to extract gold and silver from the bottom of the Dead Sea, which actually has washed down to this lowest spot on the face of the earth since the flood of Noah some 4,500 years ago. Bible prophecy does speak of the alignment of nations, revealed in Ezekiel 38, who will be drawn into Israel to take a spoil of gold and silver; Ezekiel 38:13.
The Dead Sea is the only place in Israel where there could be gold and silver, and the Red-Dead Project will prepare the region for this prophetic scenario to be fulfilled.

The end of the Oil Era within three years could cause trouble like never before in human history
Jeremy Rifkin, chief of the Washington based foundation on economic trends, indicated that the world will have used up half of its oil resources possibly by 2010 and should it peak in the next 2 or 3 years, the world will be in trouble like never before human history.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The end of oil resources in the lifetime of this present generation in reality advances the possibility for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled. With the rise in oil prices in the last several years world leaders have struggled to prepare the world for a time that could well see the price of oil cause an economic disaster.
As Jeremy Rifkin stated, if the oil available today peaks in the next two or three years, this world would be in trouble like never before in human history. The truth is that oil runs this world and daily consumption, which is expanding daily will only go up, not decrease. Thus, there is a definite problem on the horizon.
With the rise of oil as the power source to drive this world industrially and economically, the nations with the major oil resources became richer and more powerful. It goes without saying that Middle Eastern nations became major players on the world scene as a result of their petroleum dollars or in other words their oil revenues.
This scenario then brought into focus the nations that are mentioned in Bible prophecy such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, and Libya that have a role in the End Times drama laid out in Bible prophecy. These nations I just mentioned are found in Ezekiel 38, Jeremiah 50, 51, Psalm 83, Daniel 11, and Revelation 18. The possible soon depletion of oil resources does indeed advance the time frame for Bible prophecy to be played out. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

A top Islamic cleric is calling for the murder of the Jews
Qaradawi said that when the Muslims, the Arabs, the Palestinians enter into a war, they do so to worship Allah, to enter the war not as a Palestinian, a Jordanian, a Syrian, or an Arab, but as Muslims and under the banner of Islam and under the banner of serving Allah and they will be victorious.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The call to murder Jews in the name of Islam by an influential Muslim cleric is a precursor to that exact scenario for the End Times that can be found in Bible prophecy.
Emphasizing the Islamic nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, this influential leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, Yousef al-Qaradawi, said on region-wide Middle Eastern Arab television that the Hadith, an Islamic holy writing, says "Oh Muslim", not oh Palestinian, but "Oh Muslim you will be victorious when you enter war under the banner of Islam and the banner of serving Allah, the Muslim god". This call to murder Jews and take their land is indeed a precursor to future events that are described in Bible prophecy.
The ancient, Jewish, prophet Ezekiel wrote some 2,500 years ago, because the Muslims, the Palestinian Muslims, had a perpetual hatred of the Jewish people, they would shed the blood of the Jewish people, the children of Israel; that's found in Ezekiel 35:5. In Ezekiel 35:10-13, the prophet also wrote that these Muslim Palestinians would take the land of the Jewish people as well. There is to be a terrible time of Jacob's Trouble ahead when two out of every three Jews will be killed; that is found in Zechariah 13:8.
An influential Muslim cleric, Yousef al Qaradawi, calling for Muslims to murder Jews in the name of Islam is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Leading conservative evangelical pastors are saying that Jewish people can go to Heaven without Jesus Christ and the cross
Hagee, a pastor down in San Antonio, Texas, has held this position for twenty-five years and supposedly has worked together with an Orthodox Jewish rabbi to convince Falwell of this controversial doctrine referred to as Dual Covenant Theology.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The statement that Jews do not need to go through Jesus Christ or the cross to get to Heaven sounds like a page out of Satan's playbook for the End Times, that is according to Bible prophecy. Christian leaders coming together to form a Political Action Committee (PAC) to support the modern-day state of Israel is somewhat of a controversial move on the part of true Bible believing Christians, if for no other reason than the fact that Israel is a secular state in our world and may do things that are not biblically expedient.
John Hagee, the national chairman for Christians United for Israel, has taken a public position against proselytizing the Jews and says he represents thirty million evangelical Christians in the US who are supporting his new Christian PAC. Hagee's doctrine of Dual Covenant Theology runs counter to mainstream Christianity and also to the biblical doctrine as expressed by this broadcaster.
It does seem, however to fit an End Times doctrine described by the apostle Paul in a letter to young Timothy in a warning to watch for as the Last Days come into focus. In First Timothy 4:1, Paul writes that in the Last Days there will be those who depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. Jesus Christ said in John 14:6, that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life and no man can go to the Father, in other words go to Heaven, except through Him and the cross.
John Hagee's Dual Covenant Theology is a doctrine of devils and is evidence that we are in the Last Days. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
Update - Both Jerry Falwell and John Hagee has denied that Hagee convinced Falwell of his doctrine. However, Hagee still believes and teaches that Jews do not need Jesus or the Cross to enter into Heaven. - Report.
