The geo-political events of 2012 have in essence set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled in 2013

Listen to Today's Program Play

When one stops to reflect on the geo-political events that were the top news stories in 2012, it seems like all of these news stories have an interesting connection and relationship with the prophecies of the Bible.

Even a non-student of Bible prophecy has heard of the significance of the Jewish people returning to the land of their forefathers and the conflict that would cause among the Arab and Moslem nations in the Middle East.

As observers of world history, which is actually unfolding before our very eyes on a daily basis, we can without much effort recognize that this world is quickly moving towards a time unique to what has been witnessed in the past or read about in the past.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News


As we look back at the top news stories of 2012, we can recognize a movement in world events that align themselves with the end of time scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.

As a result of the Arab Spring in the Middle East, a Moslem radical was elected as President of Egypt and the civil war in Syria has intensified with the threat of chemical weapons of mass destruction entering the equation.

Even with the pressure of the European Union, the United States and the United Nations on the Iranian leaders, there has been no change in the plans for the Iranian political, military and religious leaders to stop developing a nuclear weapon of mass destruction that will possibly be used on the Jewish state of Israel.

Though not as well known as these other issues, the controversy surrounding the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and the Jewish preparation to build a Temple there, has to be the most solid evidence of a fulfillment of Bible prophecy describing the days in which we live.

Ancient Jewish prophets foretold of a conflict when Egypt and Syria would move against Israel, Daniel 11:40-43. Malachi 1, Ezekiel 35 and the little Book of Obadiah foretold of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that would be in place at the time of the return of the Messiah.

Daniel 9:27, Matthew 24:15, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 and Revelation 11:1 reveal that the Jews will prepare to build a Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem at a time of trouble during the Tribulation Period. Events in 2012 have indeed set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled in 2013.

The Muslim Brotherhood tells their followers to prepare for war against Israel so they can kill Jews

Listen to Today's Program Play


Leaders and clerics in the Muslim Brotherhood are calling for their followers to prepare for war against Israel and one leading brotherhood cleric has called for killing Jews to the very last one. This is the brotherhood that has played a major role in the chaos in the Arab capitals of the Middle East.

As the Muslim Brotherhood rises to power in the Middle East, Israeli leaders see this as consolidating the power of Hamas and its hold on Gaza, a real concern to the Jewish state because the Hamas charter states unequivocally that it wants to eradicate Israel.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

With the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood and the so-called revolution in the Arab world, the endtime scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy comes much better into focus.

One of the major players in the chaos spreading throughout the Arab world is the Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist terror group that has spawned such terror organizations as Hamas and al Qaeda. The ideology of the brotherhood was made clear by one of its leading preachers based in Qatar who in one of his sermons called for Israel and the Jews to be dealt with by Allah, the Islamic god, who should kill the Jews down to the very last one. This same Muslim Brotherhood preacher in a sermon aired on Al Jazeera claimed that Adolf Hitler was sent by Allah to punish the Jewish people. The brotherhood also supports Hamas, the Islamic Jihad, and Hezbollah, all Islamic terror groups who want to eradicate this world of the Jews.

The scenario being played out now in the Arab world was foretold by the ancient Jewish prophets, a message for the last days. Daniel and Ezekiel both revealed that the Arab world would come to power and move to kill the Jews, Daniel 11 and Ezekiel 38. The prophet Joel said this would happen when every Muslim would be ready to form the largest militia ever formed on the earth, Joel 2. Even the Psalmist prophet, Psalm 83 called for the Jews to be destroyed and their name be forgotten forever, Psalm 83:4.

The rise to power of the Muslim Brotherhood and their impact on Middle East events is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The media mogul Rupert Murdoch says Jewish King David was right, Jerusalem is the capital of Israel

Listen to Today's Program Play

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch, who is not Jewish, told attendees at an investment conference recently that what was right for King David is right for him, Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.

This conference, jointly sponsored by the Wall Street Journal which Murdoch owns, was the platform used by both Murdoch and the Israeli government to encourage investment in Israel.

Israel's finance minister reported that investments in Israel have dropped this year due to the threat of war with Iran but Israel remains a test case of a stable economy in a stormy global market.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

At a recent investor's conference, the media mogul Rupert Murdoch, stated that if Jerusalem is the capital of Israel according to Israel's second king, King David, then it was good enough for him, which also agrees with Bible prophecy.

The question of whether Jerusalem is the capital of the Jewish state of Israel has always been in the forefront of both the US and EU foreign policy decisions over many years. In fact, almost every foreign nation has their embassies in Tel Aviv, not Jerusalem which is the delegated capital of the Jewish state. Time and time again, the US administration has rejected the resolution of the entire Congress, both the Senate and the House of Representatives, who have resolved to move the American embassy to Jerusalem.

Politically, every Israeli PM since David Ben Gurion has said that Jerusalem is the eternal, undivided capital of the Jewish state. Prophetically, Israel's second king, King David received the Davidic Covenant from God, II Samuel 7, when the Lord promised the Jewish people that He would give them Jerusalem as their eternal capital. Psalm 132:13-14 states that the Lord will dwell among His people, the Jewish people forever. Zechariah 1:16 says that the Lord will return to Jerusalem and build His Temple there, a Temple where He will rule and reign forever, Zechariah 6:12-13.

As it relates to Jerusalem, Bible prophecy will indeed be fulfilled.

Egypt's president signs Islamist constitution into law making way for an Islamic Republic in Egypt

Listen to Today's Program Play

With Egyptian voters approving in a national referendum, the Islamist constitution proposed by President Morsi, the Egyptian president signed into law the Islamist constitution that many believe will set the stage for an Islamic republic similar to the one in Iran.

The Egyptians approved the text with an overwhelming 63.8 percent of the vote paving the way for the end of political turmoil and focusing on Egypt's fragile economy.

This win gives the Muslim Brotherhood their third straight electoral victory since Hosni Mubarak was toppled in 2011 and opens the way to setup the Islamic republic under shariah, the Islamic law in the Arab world's most populated nation.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A third electoral victory for the Islamists in Egypt sets the stage for the end of times scenario that is found in Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

With the fall of Hosni Mubarak in 2011 after holding the office of president of Egypt for 32 years, the Muslim Brotherhood has solidified its position as the ruling party in the Egyptian government. As two-thirds of Egypt's voters approved the Islamist constitution in a national referendum, the president then signed into law a constitution that sets the stage for an Islamic republic to be installed in the largest Arab country in the Middle East. This political event then sets the stage for the prophetic events foretold in Bible prophecy to be fulfilled in the near future.

Egyptian President Morsi has advocated in the past the annulment of the Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty that has been in place for over 30 years howbeit this Camp David Accord was a fragile peace treaty that has never been normalized. The rise of terrorism in the Sinai and the partnership between the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas raises the viable possibility of a major war breaking out between Egypt and Israel which was foretold in the prophecy of Daniel 11:40-43. Referred to as the King of the South in this passage it reveals the part Egypt will play as the Middle Eastern nations rise up to destroy the Jewish state of Israel.

Egypt will be among the first three nations to attack Israel at the beginning of the Tribulation Period, Daniel 11:40.

There has been a miraculous mysterious birth reported to have taken place in a shepherd's field near Bethlehem in Israel

Listen to Today's Program Play


We have a report of a birth taking place in an open field near the little Arab village of Bethlehem. The shepherds are reporting they have found the newborn babe with His parents; the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger, a food trough for the animals.

There are also reports that last night, their were Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) in the skies over and around Bethlehem. Some of the shepherds are saying that the UFOs were actually angels and this host of angels were actually singing joyful songs of the long awaited Jewish Messiah. There are unconfirmed reports that this little baby is the One that has been spoken of by the ancient Jewish prophets for hundreds of years, the one to be born in Bethlehem and to become the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, the Son of God.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The birth of Jesus Christ fulfilled all the prophecies in the Bible for the presence of God with us - Emmanuel - and it does actually set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

For over 2,000 years the story of the birth of Christ - which is recorded in four chapters of the Bible Matthew 1-2 and Luke 1-2, actually only 168 verses - has been responsible for authors writing so many books that one library could not contain all of the volumes. The composers have penned the music and lyrics for musical manuscripts with Jesus Christ as the theme of these musical numbers, the most used theme in all of music history.

Though Jesus never traveled more than 100 miles from His hometown, men and women have traveled to the far reaches of this earth to tell others the story of this man, the God-man born 2,000 years ago in Bethlehem. It is interesting to note that the Messiah, Jesus Christ, started in a cradle, a manger, He carried His cross to where they would crucify Him, but death could not keep Him, He arose from the dead 3 days later. As He left this world to go back to Heaven, He promised that He would come again to earth, this time wearing a crown.

This God-man, Emmanuel - God with us - came by way of the cradle to the cross and soon He will come wearing a crown; Jesus Christ, the Messiah, who has and will fulfill Bible prophecy.

The Little Town of Bethlehem Prepares for the Celebration of the Birth of Jesus Christ

Listen to Today's Program Play

Even at a time in history when the conflicts in the Middle East seem ready to explode, this is also a time  for the world to look at the Middle East and into the little town of Bethlehem which is ready to celebrate  the birth of the Messiah, Jesus Christ.

Right now we take you to our broadcast partner, David Dolan, with a report on what's happening in Bethlehem.

"Well Jimmy I have been in Bethlehem for Christmas, many, many times and it really is always a blessing; although it's crowded and noisy and when you get crowds there is pushing and shoving, it's got the features of life, but just to be in the spot on the earth where the Messiah came as Micah said He would ... 'ye little Bethlehem out of you is going to become the wonder of the world'...and He did come born as the King of Israel... and there He was. To celebrate that is such a special thing, a wonderful time of the year."

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ in the little town of Bethlehem is evidence of the fulfillment of Bible prophecy, but it is also evidence that Jesus Christ will come a second time, possibly in the near future, according to Bible prophecy.

Almost two thousand years ago there was a miraculous event that took place in that little town of Bethlehem, an event that has been reported around the world down through the centuries. Christmas Eve in Bethlehem is a joyous time for Christian pilgrims from around the world that gather to mark the birth of Jesus Christ. Hundred's and even thousand's will gather in Manger Square in front of the Church of Nativity to sing the Christmas carols and celebrate the birth of the God-man,Emanuel, God with us, the Messiah, Jesus Christ.

The Bible said that Jesus must be born in Bethlehem Ephratah, that's Micah 5:2. In that prophetic passage of Micah we also learn that Jesus will be born to be the ruler of this world, during a one thousand year Kingdom yet to come. In fact, Micah 4:8 says that the Messiah's birth at Migdal Eder, the tower of the flock, is evidence that Jesus will one day come back to Jerusalem and set up his kingdom. The tower of the flock, Migdal Eder, is at the edge of the Shepherd's fields where Priestly Shepherd's watched over their lambs that were to be sacrificed at the Temple about three  miles away in Jerusalem. Therefore, the sacrificial lamb, Jesus Christ, had to be born at Migdal Eder. Prophecies for the First Coming of Jesus Christ were fulfilled in absolute detail, as will be the case for the prophecies for the Second Coming. Bible prophecy will indeed be fulfilled.

As we now know, doomsday predictions of the end of the world did not materialize

Listen to Today's Program Play

In New York City at Times Square, the clock ticked twelve midnight on December 20th and the predicts of the end of the world according to the ancient Mayan calendar did not take place, thus bringing an end to the fears of many doomsdayers around the world.

The December 21, 2012 end of the world phenomenon along with the May 21, 2011 end of the world scenario were laid to rest as the world awaits another episode of hysteria from the doomsdayers.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

All of the worldwide attention given to the end of the world scenario surrounding December 21, 2012 came to a disappointing climax, but at the same time it was a reminder that there will be an end of the world as we know it according to Bible prophecy.

A number of years ago, there surfaced information about the ancient Mayan civilization and their knowledge of the different ways to record time and make it applicable to calendars. The world actually became aware that the Mayan calendar would come to an end on December 21, 2012 which would be followed by the end of the world. Well, it goes without saying, that prediction did not come to pass either. However, as a student of the Bible and in particular, Bible prophecy we can know that there will be an end to this world as we know it.

The book of Revelation lays out that end of times scenario in a timeline that can be studied and compared to our world today. Revelation 1:18 is the record of the death, the burial, and the resurrection of Jesus Christ which happened 2000 years ago. Revelation 4:1 foretells of the Rapture, when Christians will be caught up to meet Jesus in the air in the heavens, in fact that is the next event in Bible prophecy. Revelation 4:2-19:10, sixteen chapters in the book of Revelation, reveals the events of the seven year Tribulation Period. The Second Coming of Jesus Christ is spoken of in Revelation 19:11 and following with the thousand year Kingdom that Jesus will setup revealed in Revelation 20:1-6.

Revelation 20:11 is the point where it talks about the end of the world when the heaven and earth have passed away. That is at least 1007 years from now before the end of the world.

A number of European Union foreign ministers want to create a super president for the European Union

Listen to Today's Program Play

A select group of European Union foreign ministers are working on a plan to create a super president for the European Union that would include merging the roles of the presidents of the European Union Council and the European Commission which would be a more legitimate democracy in the European Union because this super president would be elected by the members of the European Parliament.
This proposed new super president of the European Union would be the overall powerful leader of Europe with responsibility over Europe's economic matters, all foreign policy, and any European military operation. 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The call for a super president of the European Union is a page out of Bible prophecy for the end of times.
The results of a meeting with a select group of European foreign ministers is the need for a super president to lead the United Nations of Europe into the future.  This super president of the European Union would play the major role in economic policy for the 27 member states of the European Union and this leader would have responsibility for the direction of the European Union foreign policy as well.  With plans in the EU for a military force in the near future would give leadership to this super president for military affairs as well in the European Union which would then become a major force in geopolitical events in our world today.
This report is almost like reading the prophetic scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy for the last days.  The ancient Jewish prophet Daniel wrote 2500 years ago of the revival of the old Roman Empire (Daniel 7:7, 23-24).  Daniel 7:8 reveals that a little horn which comes out of the ten horns of Daniel 7:7 will take control of the ten horns.  Now this is a prophetic scenario of the Revived Roman Empire and its leader the Antichrist who will be indeed a super leader who comes to power.
The European Union is today at least the infrastructure for the Revived Roman Empire and there are a number of potential candidates to become the proposed super president.  The political activities of the European Union and its potential super president are evidence that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

A US Congressman warns the world of a second Holocaust, the slaughter of Jewish people

Listen to Today's Program Play

Congressman Allen West, a Republican from the state of Florida, has warned that the state of Israel could become the site of a second Jewish Holocaust if the United States does not take further actions to protect the Jewish state against Iran.  West, who is a veteran of the Iraq War, also warned that the current political turmoil in the Middle East could lead to a number of Arab and or Islamic states engaging Israel in a full blown Middle Eastern war.

Congressman West said that creation of a Hamas led Palestinian state based on pre-1967 borders is the most egregious foreign policy decision that's ever been made and could lead to the beginning of the end for the Jewish state of Israel. 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News


A warning from a United States Congressman that Israel could face the beginning of the end for the Jewish state and a second Holocaust is a page out of Bible prophecy for the last days.

United States Congressman Allen West, from the state of Florida, has issued a warning to the world that Israel could be in danger of a second Holocaust.  This warning from West is based on the foreign policy decision of the present United States Administration and what seems to be a lack of support for Israel in its position in the Middle East.  Iran has made numerous threats to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.  Israel retreating to the pre-1967 borders would only enhance the Palestinian terror organization Hamas in their plan to use armed resistance to eliminate a Jewish state from the Middle East. 

I mentioned that this report is like a page out of Bible prophecy for the end of times which is evident to a student of Bible prophecy.  Ezekiel 38:5 says that Iran will be a member of a coalition of nations who want to rid the world of a Jewish state.  Ezekiel 35. Malachi 1, and the little prophetic book of Obadiah also foretold of the Palestinian people i.e. Hamas in the last days moving to eliminate Israel from the Middle East.

As it relates to the second Holocaust, the Bible does describe a time in the future when the Jewish people will face a second Holocaust.  This end time scenario is found in Zechariah 13:8 where the ancient Jewish prophet pre-wrote history and revealed that 2 out of every 3 Jews will be killed during the Time of Jacob's Trouble in the future.

Congressman West has indeed warned of a future for the Jewish people that will happen.  Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

Al Qaeda is calling for a civil war in Iraq - that would be Moslem fighting Moslem

Listen to Today's Program Play



With the United States troop pullout from Iraq in December 2011, this war torn nation has been ripe for a civil war with the Sunni Moslems against the Shiite Moslems, a return to the days of Saddam Hussein and the time right after Saddam's fall which was a terrible time of sectarian violence in Iraq.  Iraq is made up of three elements of the body politic with the Kurds in the north, Sunnis in the middle part of the state, and the Shiites in the south with the largest of these three being the Shiites with over 60% of the population.

Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki's coalition government is made up of a partnership between these three parties with al Qaeda leading the Sunni element which wants to control the entire nation of Iraq and make it a center of terrorism in the heart of this Middle Eastern region.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A civil war in Iraq will be a precursor for the end of times scenario for Iraq that is found in Bible prophecy.

Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki, who is a Shiite Moslem, has formed a coalition government working to rebuild his war torn nation, a project that has not advanced very quickly.  This coalition government is made up of the three members of the body politic of Iraq, the Kurds, the Sunnis, and the Shiites.  This Maliki government is a very fragile government that is being threatened by the terrorist element in Iraq led by al Qaeda.  Al Qaeda's strategy is to divide and conquer thus the very viable possibility for a civil war in Iraq.  During the reign of Saddam Hussein, this infighting was held to a minimum because Saddam was a very strong leader. 

This scenario now unfolding in Iraq is setting the stage for what Bible Prophecy calls for in the last days. Iraq, which is Biblical Babylon, will come to power in the last three and a half years of the Tribulation Period and be led by the antichrist; that's Revelation 18 and also Revelation 13:15-17. 

This revived world city will be the headquarters for a one-world political governmental economic power base that controls the known world at that time. The leadership of this world power will be, as mentioned, the antichrist, who will rule with an iron fist. Only when Jesus comes back to destroy this last days Babylon, will the world be free; that's Revelation16:17-20. Chaos and civil war in modern day Iraq ~ Biblical Babylon ~ is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

A rabbi in Israel claims to be a descendant of King David and he wants to set up the Kingdom of Israel right now

Listen to Today's Program Play


Rabbi Yosef Dayan claims that he can prove he is from the lineage of King David, Israel's second king, and the rabbi wants to restore Israel from a state back to a kingdom, which he says the Lord has commanded in the Bible.  This rabbi is joined by a number of Jewish scholars who say that God's Word does command the establishment of a kingdom in the land that God has given the Jewish people and Rabbi Dayan could be a candidate for the future king of Israel.

According to this group of Jewish scholars, God has commanded the Jewish people when they return to the land of their forefathers, to set up the kingdom, wipe out the seed of Amalek, and then build their temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

There are a number of Jewish scholars in Israel that believe the Lord wants them to set up the Kingdom of Israel today which is actually setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

For over two decades, there have been serious Jewish scholars that have been preparing to build a temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.  Now, many of those same Jewish scholars, believe their priority is to first establish the Kingdom of Israel, wipe out the seed of Amalek, and then build the temple.  Among this group of scholars, is a rabbi who says that he can prove his claim to being in the lineage of King David and thus is a candidate to become the King of Israel.

This group of Jewish scholars are working hard to teach the Jewish people what God's Word does command them to do and then move ahead with this project.  Interesting to me is the fact that God's Word does call for a kingdom in the land of Israel, that's II Samuel 7 which is the Davidic Covenant.  Obadiah, an ancient Jewish prophet, wrote 2800 years ago that the descendants of Amalek would be destroyed and they would be as if they had never been (Jeremiah 49:18).  The Jewish prophet Ezekiel gave a description of the temple that will be standing during the kingdom on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, that's Ezekiel 40-46, 202 verses of detailed information about that temple of the future.

These Jewish scholars are indeed involved in preparing for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

As we look at geopolitical events unfolding in our world today there is eveidence that this world is ready for something spectacular to happen

Listen to Today's Program Play

In our wold today, we see events happening that seem to be somewhat of a stage setter for something catastrophic or spectacular to happen, something that could happen which would indeed change the entire earth's future.

In the Middle East, Egypt is involved in one crisis after another. The civil war in Syria brings more death to Syrians on a daily basis and the Jewish state of Israel is under a political attack especially from the Palestinians.

If you take a look to the far East, the prospects that China and India with a total of one-third of the earth's population and both of these nations increasing daily in population, wealth, and military preparedness, they both are becoming somewhat of a superpower in our world today.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Geopolitical activities and current events in our world today are setting the stage for what some call a catastrophic event to happen but is in reality only a part of the end of times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.

If you are a watcher of geopolitical activities and current events and at the same time familiar with Bible prophecy, you will be able to recognize that our world is on the fast track to the scenario that is found in the pages of Bible prophecy. As a student of Bible prophecy and what I call a news junkie, I do recognize that this world is very close to the last days scenario that is found in the pages of Bible prophecy. The far East is quickly putting in place their economic and military preparedness in order to become nations that would be included in the superpowers of this world.

This was actually foretold by John the Revelator when he wrote about the impact of the Kings of the East in Revelation 16:12. Europe and the EU with all of their economic struggles are working to put in place an economic structure that is described in Bible prophecy, Daniel 7:23-24 and Revelation 18.

In the Middle East with the radicalism prevalent in both Syria and Egypt to the North and to the South of the Jewish state of Israel, one can understand better the pre-written history written by Daniel the prophet in Daniel 11:40-43 and see how this world will indeed see catastrophic, spectacular events in the near future.

Noah's Ark is up and operating, not in Mount Ararat but the Netherlands

Listen to Today's Program Play

After a twenty-year quest to build a full-scale functioning model of Noah's Ark, an undertaking of what some call Biblical proportions, a Dutchman, Johan Huibers has finished his lifelong project and the Ark towers across the Dutch landscape.

Huibers, a Christian, used the Biblical book of Genesis 6-9 as his inspiration following the instructions that God gave Noah right down to the last cubit.

Huibers said that his motivation for building Noah's Ark was religious, he wants to make people think and ask questions so they will have to go looking for answers and ultimately find salvation and eternal life in God.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Noah's Ark has been built and is on display not on Mount Ararat but in the Netherlands and it is a testimony to Biblical history as well as Biblical prophecy.

Johan Huibers, a builder by trade, started twenty years ago to build Noah's Ark, a full-scale model of what Biblical Noah built 4500 years ago. Huibers has finished his project and now in the Dutch lowlands, Noah's Ark is a testimony of one Christian's desire to reach out to the world with Biblical truth. Huibers' model of Noah's Ark can float and its builder is considering sailing this sea craft around Europe and even possibly a transatlantic cruise to America. This project is a testimony to the historic Biblical account found in Genesis 6-9 and was the building plan for the project. This full-scale model of Noah's Ark is tangible evidence that there was a way to build a ship that could contain the animals on earth, each kind of animal, and save them from the worldwide Flood of Noah's day 4500 years ago.

In addition to its historic significance, Noah's Ark has a prophetic significance as well. Jesus, in His Olivet Discourse, Matthew 24, spoke of the Days of Noah and he referred to His second coming which would be similar to the times of Noah. We do not have the time to explain all that statement means, but for sure it speaks of a time of sexual immorality, disregard for the things of God, and failure to repent even in the face of coming judgment.

A model of Noah's Ark should cause all of us to understand these words of Jesus and realize that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

The Intelligence Community says the US will be out as the sole superpower by 2030

Listen to Today's Program Play

The Intelligence Community has issued a report which projects that the US will no longer be the world's only superpower by 2030 and Asia will surpass North America and Europe combined with Asian population, military spending, and technological investment.

This report comes from the office of the Director of National Intelligence which states that the unipolar world that emerged after the fall of the Soviet Union will not continue.

Global trends project that the US will retain a role in the world in part because of its history and past leadership but nations like China, India, and Brazil are the rising world powers.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

With countries like China, India, and Brazil on the rise in our world today, the US will soon be reduced economically and militarily no longer to be the only superpower in our world which is a scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy for the last days.

Many political pundits and world thinkers have said that the economic crisis which the US faces will play a key role in knocking the US out of superpower status. Militarily, China is quickly becoming an equal to the US and there are projections that China will overtake the US in military power in the near future. Students of Bible prophecy have for some years known that the US is not in Bible prophecy as a player in the last days. One suggestion is that at the Rapture of the Church, the US will be rendered weak since the backbone of America is the born again Christian who will leave at the Rapture, I Thessalonians 4:13-18.

Both China and India are included in the prophetic phrase, "Kings of the East" found in Revelation 16:12 and they will be key players at the end of the seven year Tribulation Period. Other nations in the Middle East will form a coalition of nations that align themselves to try to destroy the Jewish state of Israel at the beginning of the Tribulation, Ezekiel 38, Daniel 11, and Psalm 83. Between the Rapture which happens just before the Tribulation Period and the return of Jesus Christ at the end of that terrible time of trouble, much judgment will come upon the world including the nations already mentioned in this report as well as the US.

The perception in the Middle East is that the American superpower status is in decline

Listen to Today's Program Play

The perception in the Middle East and the Arab World is that the United States of America, supposed leader of the free world and international superstar, is becoming weaker according to Avi Gil who is a senior fellow at the Jewish People Policy Planning Institute, who also said that America no longer leads as it once did but now follows or leads from behind.

The United States has called for Israel to withdraw from land that is Biblically, historically, and strategically essential for the very existence of the Jewish state among the Arab-Islamic nations in the Middle East which would put the Jewish state in harm's way. 
 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
With America's superpower status in decline and the rising power of the radical Arab Islamic world, we can now see better the end of times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.
The America that we knew 10 to 15 years ago is no longer at the peak of the pedestal as a world superpower and even the Arab Muslim world recognizes this as the case for America politically and economically.  Much of the way that Israel is perceived is directly dependent upon its relationship with America.  This report begs the question, where is the United States in Bible prophecy?  Is it a superpower in the last days or not there at all?
The United States is not mentioned by name anywhere in Bible prophecy but it seems to refer to the United States and in fact all nations in Zechariah 14:2 when the ancient Jewish prophet wrote that at the end of the seven year Tribulation period, all nations will gather in Jerusalem.  But before that, the superpower will be the Antichrist, the world dictator who will control a one world economic, political, and governmental system from Babylon in modern-day Iraq.

This is foretold in Revelation 18.  Under the leadership of Satan, Antichrist, and the False Prophet, this massive body of people will confront Jesus Christ as He returns to the Mount of Olives and then after the Battle of Armageddon, goes into the Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem to set up His kingdom (Zechariah 6:12-13).
Perception has become fact as America continues to decline in leadership and character in our world today.  The prophecies of God's Word will indeed be fulfilled.

PA President Mahmoud Abbas in a recent speech denied that there was ever a Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem which is part of a campaign to eradicate Jewish history at the Temple Mount as well as the rest of the land of Israel.

By Abbas' denial of the Jewish Temple at the same time he has undermined the teaching of the New Testament and the life of Jesus Christ because if there was no Temple in Jerusalem, the biblical account of Jesus chasing the money changers out of the Temple would mean that there would be no truth to biblical history and Christian theology.

Abbas has also stated that there will be no peace, security, or stability unless the Jewish occupiers, the settlements, and the settlers are evacuated from the Palestinian holy city of Jerusalem and its sacred site.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

By denying that there was ever a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem the PA President Mahmoud Abbas not only denies Jewish history, Christian theology, but the truth of Bible prophecy as well.

PA President Mahmoud Abbas has been a person that stands in the face of history by first denying that the Holocaust ever took place. In recent years, Mahmoud Abbas has been leading the charge against biblical history in his denial of there ever being a Jewish presence on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. This denial contradicts both secular history and biblical history as well.

The Old Testament records the fact of the first Temple in Jerusalem being built by King Solomon, II Chronicles 3. Abbas contradicts the biblical account of the second Temple in Jerusalem built by Zerubbabel who led 50000 Jews back to Jerusalem from the Babylonian captivity in order to build the second Temple, Ezra 1-6. The Gospel of John tells us that Herod the Great took a number of years to refurbish the second Temple that stood in Jerusalem in the times of Jesus Christ, that's John 2:20.

In fact, the account of Jesus throwing the money changers out of the Temple found in John 2:13-16 took place at the beginning of the ministry of Jesus and a repeat of that same activity by Jesus at the end of His ministry, Matthew 21:12-13, proves that there was a Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount and Jews were present there for over 1000 years. Zechariah 6:12-13 says that Jesus Christ, a Jew, will return to the earth and build another Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem

PA President Abbas is wrong. Bible prophecy has been and will be fulfilled.

As the Jewish people celebrate Hanukkah there is an interesting connection to Christmas as well as the Syrian crisis in the Middle East

Listen to Today's Program Play

Hanukkah is the Jewish holy days that mark the defeat of the Grecian leader Antiochus Epiphanes who tried to destroy Jewish worship at the Temple in Jerusalem and was defeated by the Maccabees who rose to the occasion and defended the Jews from a terrible tyrant.

On December 25, 168 B.C. Antiochus entered the Temple and desecrated this Jewish holy place by slaughtering a pig on the altar which was eventually reclaimed by the Jewish people three years to the day later with the lighting of the Menorah.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The celebration of Hanukkah, celebrated by the Jewish people, marks a victory of a Grecian king who controlled what is Syria today, but this Jewish holy day has a connection to Christmas as well.

The eight day Jewish holy days of Hanukkah mark the victory over the Grecian King Antiochus Epiphanes who ruled what is today Syria. The eight days result from the lighting of the Menorah with enough virgin olive oil for the Menorah to burn one day, but instead it burned for eight days. That happened in 165 B.C. when the Maccabees reconsecrated the Jewish Temple after the madman Antiochus had committed an abomination of the Temple which happened exactly three years to the day before on December 25, 168 B.C. By the way the date, December 25th, was chosen by the early Church fathers to celebrate Christmas because Jesus Christ celebrated Hanukkah, John 10:22. When Antiochus slaughtered that pig on the Jewish Temple altar, the Bible called it the abomination that maketh desolate, a prototype of the abomination of desolation that the Antichrist performs at the mid-way point of the Tribulation Period, Daniel 9:27, Matthew 24:15, and II Thessalonians 2:4.

Since this Satanic event will take place in a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, that reveals to us that there will be a Temple in Jerusalem for this prophecy to be fulfilled and the next Jewish Temple is ready to be rebuilt right now. In addition, there must be one that fulfills the prophecy for the Antichrist. That world dictator is alive and well on planet earth today and ready to assume his Satanically energized power and seed of authority, Revelation 13:1-3.

Jews celebrating Hanukkah today is a reminder that in a near future day Bible prophecy will indeed be fulfilled.

As Syria raises the stakes over its chemical weapons, an Israeli expert says measures are being taken to minimize the threat

Listen to Today's Program Play

There are a number of reports from what seems to be reliable sources that the Bashur Assad regime in Syria has told their technicians to mix precursor chemicals for the deadly nerve gas sarin, a chemical weapon that is potentially very dangerous. There have been some reports that the chemical may have been loaded into aerial bombs which according to the Israeli expert makes dealing with the WMD much less dangerous.

Mordecai Kedar, a twenty-five year veteran of military intelligence, says that actions are quietly being taken to deal with the potential threat by Syria's chemical arsenal.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The threat that Syria might be ready to use a deadly chemical weapon is a precursor to the end times scenario that is found in Bible prophecy.

Reports have spread across the world that Bashar Assad, President of Syria, might have given the order to mix the ingredients for the deadly sarin gas, a WMD. There have been reports that this deadly chemical weapon may have been loaded into aerial bombs and are ready to be deployed in the civil war there in Syria. An Israeli expert says that if this sarin gas has been loaded into an aerial bomb, it becomes less dangerous to deal with since they can intercept and explode the bombs in mid-air, which will cause very little harm to those on the ground.

This scenario playing out in the Middle east is actually a precursor to the prophetic events foretold by the ancient Jewish prophets. Ezekiel 38 speaks of an alignment of nations that will form in the last days and try to destroy Israel. Daniel 11:40 mentions two of that coalition of nations as Syria and Egypt. Earlier in Daniel 11 the King of the North is Syria and the King of the South, Egypt. Israeli leaders say they can deal with the threat of chemical WMDs from Syria, however the Bible reveals that the Lord will intercede to save the Jewish state from annihilation, Ezekiel 38:18-39:6.

Syria is the first of this coalition of nations to attack Israel which may or may not be the case in this present crisis, God's Word however is absolute. The Lord will deal with the final Syrian threat.

The Israeli government is considering a bill that if made law would give Israel sovereignty over the Biblical heartland of the Jewish people

Listen to Today's Program Play

The Israeli Knesset is considering a law that would make Israel sovereign over Judea and Samaria which has been the Jewish heartland since Biblical times, a piece of real estate that Israel liberated from Jordanian occupation during the Six Day War in 1967. The Jewish state has formally declared sovereignty over the eastern section of the city of Jerusalem which includes the Old City and the Temple Mount and the Golan Heights but Judea and Samaria continue to be administered by Israeli military governors.

Israeli officials believe that declaring sovereignty over the Jewish heartland of Judea and Samaria actually creates a historic opportunity for Israel to make right a protracted wrong.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Even though the Israeli government might declare sovereignty over the Jewish heartland of Judea and Samaria in this day, the Lord gave the Jews that piece of real estate many centuries ago and had promised them this land forever according to Bible prophecy.

In the 1967 Six Day War the Israeli Defense Force liberated the piece of real estate referred to as the West Bank from the Jordanians and this land, known in Biblical terms as Judea and Samaria, became a part of the Jewish state. However, the area of Judea and Samaria did not come under the sovereignty of the state of Israel but has been administered over these many many years by military governors. Now the Israeli government wants to implement sovereignty over the Biblical heartland of the Jewish people. In essence, that has already happened because God made a promise to the Jewish people and told them they would have this land forever.

Ezekiel 36 speaks much about the land of the Jewish people. In fact 35 times the prophet refers to the land, a land that will belong to the Jews for one reason: He promised this land to them and Ezekiel 36:22 says that the Lord must keep that promise for His holy namesake. The Land Covenant, a promise between the Lord and the Jews found in Deuteronomy 30, this Land Covenant must be fulfilled or God is not God. Ezekiel 35 reveals the prophecy of the Palestinian people, descendants of Esau, these Palestinians who will come and kill the Jews and take their land, that's the land of Judea and Samaria.

The Israeli government's sovereignty over Judea and Samaria is an absolute not because of human government, but because of Bible prophecy - Bible prophecy that will be fulfilled.

Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas proclaims that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of a Palestinian state

Listen to Today's Program Play

 Mahmoud Abbas who claims now to be the President of the state of Palestine after the UN General Assembly upgraded the Palestinian UN delegation has proclaimed that the Palestinian state is a state with a capital city named Jerusalem which Abbas calls the eternal capital of Palestine.

This pronouncement was made to the cheers of the Palestinian people and was totally rejected by the Israeli government.

With both peoples, the Palestinians and the Israelis claiming Jerusalem as their capital city the conflict surrounding the city of Jerusalem will only intensify.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

When the Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas announced that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of the state of Palestine he set the stage for a number of lines of prophecy for the end of times to be fulfilled.

Just days after the UN General Assembly voted in favor of upgrading the Palestinian delegation to the UN to a state status, the Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas announced to the world not only did the Palestinian people have a state called Palestine, but he proclaimed that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of this Palestinian state. This proclamation is in the face of the statements by all previous prime ministers of Israel, all the way back to the very first one, David Ben Gurion when he claimed that Jerusalem is the undivided, eternal capital of the Jewish people.

According to the Bible, the second King of Israel, King David captured the Jebusite stronghold called Jerusalem and made this fortress city the political capital of the Jewish people and that happened 3000 years ago and is recorded in II Samuel 5. King David was also given a covenant by God, the Davidic Covenant, II Samuel 7, that promised the Jewish people Jerusalem forever. Zechariah 1 reveals that the Messiah, Jesus Christ, will come back to Jerusalem and build His Temple in the holy city. Zechariah also said that Jerusalem will be a city of controversy until Jesus Christ does come back, Zechariah 12:2. In fact, when Jesus does return to the earth, He comes to the Mount of Olives in the city of Jerusalem, Zechariah 14:4.

The Bible reveals events of the last days as it relates to Jerusalem, all prophecies that will be fulfilled.

European leaders have declared war on Jewish settlers and they want Jerusalem to be divided

Listen to Today's Program Play


European leaders are calling for the Jewish settlers living in Judea and Samaria to be blacklisted and they say they will ban these settlers from entering the EU while at the same time, these European leaders are encouraging the radical PLO to become more active in the Eastern section of Jerusalem.

The division of Jerusalem is on the agenda of these EU leaders because they say there will be no peace in the Middle East unless there is a portion of Jerusalem as the capital of a Palestinian state while the Israelis say that Jerusalem will never be divided.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

As EU leaders declare war on the Jewish settlers and call for the division of the city of Jerusalem, a student of Bible prophecy can see better in focus the end of time scenario that the Lord gave to the ancient Jewish prophets more than 2000 years ago.

The EU leaders that have the task of helping direct the foreign policy for the Europeans are making moves to stop all funding for the construction of any new building projects in the area referred to as the  West Bank by some but is in reality the ancient biblical lands known as Judea and Samaria. The Jewish settlers claim that their presence in Judea and Samaria actually helps the peace process. This discussion will continue.

When one looks at the Bible for an answer to this very sticky issue, they will find that the Lord did promise this piece of real estate where the Jewish settlers have built their homes and raised their families, that this land called Judea and Samaria does belong to them, Ezekiel 34:11-30. Deuteronomy 30 is the Land Covenant which promises the Jews much more than Judea and Samaria ultimately in the future. As it relates to the Palestinian claims to this land, the prophet Malachi wrote that the Palestinians, the descendants of Esau, the Edomites, would return to this land and setup borders, which the Lord said would be the "borders of wickedness", Malachi 1.

The debate will continue related to the Jewish settlements, but rest assured, Bible prophecy will indeed be fulfilled.

The world turns against Israel and in favor of the Palestinians

Listen to Today's Program Play

Sixty-five years to the date after the UN voted the petition of mandatory Palestine, a move the Jews accepted and the Palestinians rejected, the UN voted overwhelmingly to grant the Palestinian delegation the upgraded status of non-member observer state.

Prime Minister Netanyahu responded to the UN vote saying it was illegal since there was not a state of Palestine that even qualifies to be a state with defined borders and a legitimate government of all the people and that the UN vote changes nothing on the ground in Israel except the conflict.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The UN vote to grant the Palestinians state status in an historic vote is simply setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

With the non-aligned member states of the UN and the EU member states, the UN General Assembly overwhelmingly voted the Palestinian delegation an upgrade status at the UN that gives the Palestinians a claim to statehood. PA PM Mahmoud Abbas when addressing the UN General Assembly said he was there to allow the UN to issue a birth certificate for the state of Palestine. By making that statement, Abbas admitted there never has been a Palestinian state. This UN vote has only enhanced the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and has basically negated any peace process that might have brought resolution to this conflict.

Twenty-five hundred years ago, a number of ancient Jewish prophets foretold of a time in history when this type of scenario would be in place in our world. In fact, this scenario has never been just as it is today which is evidence we are quickly approaching the time that the prophets we're talking about. Malachi revealed that the Palestinian people, the descendants of Esau would try to rebuild their nation, Malachi 1:3. In that same passage, Malachi reports that the Lord will call their borders the borders of wickedness. Ezekiel said that God will judge the Palestinians because they kill the Jews and take their land, Ezekiel 35:5, 10. Actually, the resolution of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict will only come when the Messiah returns to the earth, Obadiah 18.

The UN vote did indeed set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The Palestinian people petition the UN for state status on the same day, November 29th as Israel did in 1947

Listen to Today's Program Play

In a symbolic move by the President of the PA, Mahmoud Abbas, petitioned the UN General Assembly for an upgrade in status for the Palestinian people on November 29th, the same date in 1947 when the UN approved the resolution that allowed the Jewish people to have their own modern-day state of Israel.

Less than a year later, the state of Israel was a reality with about 500000 Jews from around the world forming the Jewish state and once again being a nation among all the nations of the world.

In an effort to form a Palestinian state in what is a part of Israel and with a portion of the city of Jerusalem as its capital city, PA President Abbas has petitioned the UN General Assembly to approve their upgrade to a state status which will only intensify the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The Palestinian petition at the UN to give the PA a state status at the General Assembly is a precursor to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

The PA led by Mahmoud Abbas has for years claimed that the Israeli people had stolen their state and replaced it with a Jewish state. The Palestinian petition at the UN General Assembly for state status among this international governmental organization is an admission that there never was a Palestinian state as history has recorded. Palestine is not a real state since it has no defined borders and is without a legitimate government in place.

The ancient Jewish prophet Malachi wrote 2500 years ago of how the Palestinian people, the Edomites of biblical time, those who were descendants of Esau, would return to the land that God has given the Jewish people through Jacob, Genesis 37:1 and that these Palestinians would endeavor to rebuild. Malachi reveals that God would call the Palestinian borders the borders of wickedness, Malachi 1:4. In that same verse, God said He will have indignation against the Palestinian people forever. Ezekiel 35:5, 10 foretell of the judgment on the Palestinian people because they kill the Jews and endeavor to take their land. Obadiah says that God will destroy the Palestinians as if they have never been.

The Palestinian petition at the UN is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The last Jews in Ethiopia prepare for a trip to the promised land

Listen to Today's Program Play

The last 2000 Ethiopian Jews are preparing to immigrate to Israel which will mark the first and only time an entire country's Jewish population will leave their homeland and travel to the land of their forefathers, traveling to what they claim to be God-given land.

Operation Moses in 1985, when as many as 20000 Ethiopian Jews left for Israel, many of them by foot through Sudan saw the first immigration of these Jews of Ethiopia to the Jewish state of Israel.

In May of 1991, 15000 Ethiopian Jews were crowded into a series of non stop air flights over a 36 hour period of time into Israel in what was called Operation Solomon - most likely the greatest airlift in history.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

As 2000 Ethiopian Jews prepare to travel to the Jewish state of Israel the last chapter for these Jews will be completed and will result in the fulfillment of Bible prophecy for the last days.

In 1985, 20000 Jews from Ethiopia made their way, many by foot to Israel and fulfilled their obligation as a Jew to return home to the land of their forefathers during what was called Operation Moses. In May of 1991 a special airlift called Operation Solomon brought 15000 Ethiopian Jews to Israel. Now, the last of the Ethiopian-Jewish community is preparing to travel to Israel as well.

The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel foretold of a time when the Lord would bring all Jews from the four corners of the earth back to the homeland, the land of the Jewish forefathers, Ezekiel 34. In fact, another Jewish prophet, Zephaniah wrote 2500 years ago that the Lord would bring the Ethiopian Jews back home as well, Zephaniah 3:10. The return of the Ethiopian Jews is only part of the entire Jewish world coming back to Israel and establishing a Jewish state which is foretold in Ezekiel 37:7-8. Out of 108 nations of the world over the last 100 years Jews have been coming home and the remaining Jewish worldwide community will do the very same thing in the near future.

Operation Moses in 1985, Operation Solomon in 1991, and this next and last immigration of Ethiopian Jews to Israel is indeed a fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

Oscar winning actor calls President Obama "Our Lord and Savior"

Listen to Today's Program Play

In a recent television broadcast on the BET cable network the Oscar-winning actor, Jamie Foxx referred to President Barack Obama as "Our Lord and Savior", a statement following "Praise to God" and while in the context replaced the Son of God, Jesus Christ by the re-elected President Obama.

The website, Newsbusters reported this statement by Jamie Foxx using a video from one of the video presentation websites that was later taken down only to be replaced by the same video from Media Research Center.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The statement that President Obama is the Lord and Savior made recently by Jamie Foxx an Oscar-winning actor is not only blasphemous, but is also setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Being a famous Hollywood actor with many honors does not give that person the right to blaspheme the Son of God, Jesus Christ. The Oscar-winning actor, Jamie Foxx, at a television special award night first called on the crowd to give honor to God and then he added, "and our Lord and Savior, Barack Obama". This blasphemous act was cheered by the large crowd attending the award presentation even with a standing ovation. The statement by Foxx also is evidence that the end of times scenario found in God's Word is quickly approaching its total fulfillment. I do not know the heart of Jamie Foxx, I do know what he said, which is blasphemy and foretold in the Bible.

In Revelation 13, a passage with detailed information about the Antichrist, John the Apostle reveals that blasphemy against Jesus Christ will be prevalent at the time of judgment, the seven year Tribulation Period, Revelation 13:1, 5, 6. In I John 2:18, the author of the book of Revelation, John also wrote that the Antichrist will come and in I John 4:3 he said the spirit of Antichrist is even now in the world. There are many other signs in our world today that indicate the Antichrist is about to appear, evidence like deception through signs, wonders, and miracles as foretold in Matthew 24:24.

The blasphemous statement by Jamie Foxx that President Obama is the Lord and Savior indeed is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The rabbi of the Western Wall in Jerusalem refutes the PA president and says that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of the Jewish people

Listen to Today's Program Play


The rabbi of the Western Wall at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz issued an unprecedented attack against the Palestinian Authority(PA) President Mahmoud Abbas following the statements by Abbas that Jerusalem will forever be Arabic, Islamic, and Christian.

Abbas made his comments at the 43rd anniversary of an Australian activist who attempted to set fire to al-Aqsa Mosque in an attack that only destroyed a pulpit that was installed by the famous Islamic leader Saladin.

The rabbi said that ancient coins, a wall built by Nehemiah, the prayers and hymns of people across the world, and the ancient Jewish prophets confirm the Jewishness of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount and its future.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A denial of the Jewishness of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount by a Palestinian leader which has been refuted by the rabbi of the Western Wall is a precursor to the end times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.

PA President Mahmoud Abbas has rejected the Jewishness of the city of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount and has denied the presence of a Jewish Temple in the holy city throughout history. Abbas is in the face of all of history, even Islamic history that states the reality of a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem for hundreds of years. The rabbi responsible for the care and worship at the Western Wall Plaza area which includes the Temple Mount has rebuked the PA leader and said that evil spirits cannot appropriate for themselves and their faith, i.e. the Muslims and the Islamic faith, this sacred piece of real estate.

The Muslims claim that the Temple Mount, al-Aqsa as they refer to the site, will be the headquarters of their worldwide kingdom, a caliphate. The rabbi quoted from Isaiah 2:2-3 that the mountain of the Lord, the Temple Mount, shall be established as the location for the Messiah to rule and reign from in the last days. Micah 4:2, a similar prophecy, states that the word of the Lord will go forth from this Temple Mount to teach the world of peace. Zechariah 6:12-13 confirms a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and that the Messiah, Jesus Christ will not only build that Temple but rule and reign from that Temple forever.

PA President Mahmoud Abbas is incorrect. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

A terrorist group has warned Israel: Harm al-Aqsa Mosque and we will open the 'Gates of Hell'

Listen to Today's Program Play

The popular resistance, one of a number of Palestinian terror groups in the Middle East has threatened Israel that if there is any harm to al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem they will open the 'Gates of Hell' against the Zionist enemy.

The terrorist group said that the Islamic nations have started waking up and are ready to meet their religious commitments towards Palestine and al-Aqsa. The former Mufti of Jerusalem, Sheikh Sabri, says even the Western Wall is not Jewish but belongs to the Muslims and any attack by the Jews on the al-Aqsa Mosque will endanger the safety and stability of the entire Middle Eastern region.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News


A threat by a Palestinian terror group that if the Jews harm the al-Aqsa Mosque, they will open the 'Gates of Hell' against them is a page out of Bible prophecy for the end of times.

For over 1300 years the Temple Mount in Jerusalem has been a focus of the Islamic world. Though it is the third holiest site in Islam after Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia, Jerusalem is an honored site that the Muslims want as the location for their worldwide kingdom, a caliphate. However, the Palestinian terror group is warning they will open the 'Gates of Hell' against anyone who harms al-Aqsa. Muslims could put millions of martyrs on the Temple Mount to fight off any Jewish effort to remove al-Aqsa so they can construct a Jewish Temple on the site.

This scenario is foretold in Bible prophecy and will be played out in the future. Zechariah 12:2 reveals that the Temple Mount will be at the center of controversy in the last days. Malachi 1 reports that descendants of Esau, the Palestinian people of today, will try and rebuild their national power base in Jerusalem. Ezekiel 35:5, 10 speak of a time when the Palestinians will kill the Jews and take the land, i.e. the Temple Mount, that God has given to the Jewish people. Obadiah 18 foretells of the Jews defeating the Palestinians when the Messiah, Jesus Christ returns to Jerusalem.

Jesus Christ will build a Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount, Zechariah 1:16 and no Palestinian terror group will open the 'Gates of Hell'.

Thanksgiving Day is evidence that the US government and the Bible can work in harmony

Listen to Today's Program Play

The United States of America stops today to give thanks for all the blessings and freedoms that we have and this day is a special day set aside by the US government to do exactly what the Bible calls for us all to do, give thanks in all things.

Families will gather for the traditional Thanksgiving dinner of turkey and dressing, the young men and even some of us old guys will break out in the annual game of touch football and the ladies, well they'll be there to cheer us on, and in fact heal up any of the bruises sustained in the afternoon free-for-all. Those of us with loved ones on a far away battlefield will thank God for their protection and ask God for their safe return to the family circle for next Thanksgiving: and all of this on a day of thanksgiving required by the Bible and set aside by decree of our own government.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Today is a day set aside for all of us to be thankful, but as we move closer to the time of the return of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, our world will become more and more unthankful, that is according to Bible prophecy. The principle of thanksgiving: there are over 100 locations in the Bible where the scriptures speak of thanks and thanksgiving. We are told to give thanks in all things for it is the will of God in Christ Jesus, I Thessalonians 5:18.

The product of thanksgiving: interestingly when we stop to give thanks, the end result is to our own personal benefit. Paul, an apostle, in a letter that he wrote to the Philippians, states that giving thanks brings us true joy. Paul also wrote the people in Colosse that giving thanks helps us to abound in the faith, a faith that is needed for all of life Colossians 2:7.

The prophecy of unthankfulness: as we approach the time of the Second Coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, Paul reminded us that he wrote a letter to Timothy to tell him that people would be unthankful at that time, II Timothy 3:2.

Unthankfulness is one of the major signs of the last days and as those days approach we need to be looking up in anticipation of His coming, but also in thanksgiving as well. Remember on this day of thanksgiving, unthankfulness is an indicator, a trend, a sign of the judgment that is coming, that is according to Bible prophecy.

Israeli PM Netanyahu tells newly arriving Jewish immigrants that they are the protectors of the Jewish future

Listen to Today's Program Play

Recently, a planeload of over 350 Jewish immigrants arrived in Israel to be welcomed by the prime minister who told these Jews they would be the protectors of the future for the Jewish people and actually the Jewish state of Israel.

The Chairman of the Jewish Agency, Natan Sharonsky, himself an immigrant from Russia, said it was tremendously moving to see hundreds of new immigrants disembarking from the plane to become Israelis who will strengthen the future of Israel.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News


Hundreds of new Jewish immigrants arriving in Israel recently were welcomed by the prime minister and told they are the protectors of the future for the Jews, a statement that can be confirmed by Bible prophecy.

The modern day state of Israel is made up of Jews from 108 nations of the world that arrived in Israel over the last 100 years who have returned to the land of their forefathers. The establishment of the Jewish state after 2000 years without a structured nation of people in their homeland has been applauded by many world leaders. In fact, most of these leaders believe it was a miracle to see a people scattered across the world come together to form a modern day state. However at the same time, in the Middle East there has risen a group of nations, the Arab nations that reject the right of the Jews to have a state in the land of their forefathers. Israeli PM Netanyahu was correct when he greeted these new immigrants with the statement that they will be the protectors of the future for the Jewish people and the Jewish state.

Bible prophecy actually does confirm the prime minister's statement. The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel foretold of a day when Jews would be gathered from all over the world back into the land of their forefathers, Ezekiel 37:7 and 34. Ezekiel 37:8 says that not only would the Jews return to their land, but they would be restored as a nation in that land in the last days. Ezekiel 35 reveals that the Palestinian people would rise up to kill numbers of those returning Jews and try to take their God-given land. Ezekiel 38 tells of a coalition of nations that will try and wipe the Jewish state off of the map.

As Prime Minister Netanyahu said to those returning Jews to Israel, they will indeed play a role in Israel's future.

A Palestinian leader calls for the Arab world to rise up and stop Israel from Judaizing the city of Jerusalem

Listen to Today's Program Play
The PM of Hamas, an Islamic terror organization located in the Gaza Strip, has made an urgent call for the international Arab and Muslim world to stop what he called Israel's Judaization of Jerusalem and all the attacks by the Jewish state on the Muslim community in Israel.

Ismail Haniyeh, the Hamas PM, during a recent visit to Cairo, Egypt slammed Israel for the ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem and a campaign against Muslim symbols.

The Hamas PM says Jerusalem is the future capital of a Palestinian state and the Muslim world must do whatever is necessary to stop the Judaization of Jerusalem by the Israelis.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News


A call for the Arab and Muslim world to stop the Judaization of Jerusalem is a declaration of war according to Bible prophecy.

A center focus of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the final status of the city of Jerusalem. The Israelis say Jerusalem is their undivided, eternal capital and there can be no compromise on the issue. Meanwhile, the Palestinians claim that Jerusalem will be the capital of the Palestinian state that will come about either through diplomatic maneuvers or as a result of an armed struggle. A recent call by the Hamas PM Haniyeh for the Arab and Muslim world to rise up and use all means available to stop the Israelis from Judaizing Jerusalem is in essence a declaration of war.

According to the ancient Jewish prophets, the city of Jerusalem will in fact belong to the Jewish people and it will belong to them forever. Zechariah wrote 2500 years ago that the Messiah, Jesus Christ, will return to Jerusalem, Zechariah 1:16, and build His Temple, Zechariah 6:12, where He will rule and reign forever, Zechariah 6:13. The Jewish King David was given a promise, II Samuel 7, the Davidic Covenant, a promise that there would be a Jewish temple in Jerusalem for one of his sons to rule from in the Jewish Kingdom forever. In fact, God said that He had selected Jerusalem as the location where He would dwell among His people, the Jewish people, forever.

The Judaization of Jerusalem is an absolute.

A UN resolution approved over 60 years ago could have resolved the Israeli-Palestinian conflict but the Palestinians rejected it

Listen to Today's Program Play


In February of 1947, Great Britain, which had control of the area of the Middle East that includes modern day Jordan and Israel and the areas claimed today by the Palestinians, decided to turn the issue over to the UN which then decided to establish two states at that time, one for the Palestinians and one for the Jews.

The Palestinian rejection of the UN resolution was not only political, but they launched a large scale terrorist campaign against the Jewish people followed by an invasion of Israel by five Arab armies to destroy Israel when it declared its independence in May of 1948.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The rejection of a UN resolution to establish the states of Palestine and Israel in the Middle East in 1947 set the stage for the present day conflict as well as the end of times scenario for these two peoples that can be found in Bible prophecy.

The UN Resolution 181 passed on November 29, 1947 by a large majority of the member states of the General Assembly set in place the establishment of two new states in the Middle East, Israel and Palestine. By direct order of the Palestinian leaders, the elderly, women and children of the Palestinian people fled the area as the militant Palestinians moved to annihilate the Jews so there would be only one new state, Palestine.

This report of the beginnings of the present day Israeli-Palestinian conflict is also the evidence that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled. The descendants of Esau, the Palestinians of today, vowed that they would return and rebuild in what they claimed to be their land which is modern day Israel, Malachi 1:4. The ancient prophet Ezekiel wrote in Ezekiel 35 that these Palestinians would kill the Jews, verse 5, and take their land, verse 10. Obadiah, another Jewish prophet, reveals that the resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will only come about when the Messiah, Jesus Christ, returns to earth, Obadiah 15-18.

Palestinian rejection of the UN partition plan did indeed set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

A Jewish rabbi in Jerusalem is calling for Jews to stop praying at the Western Wall

Rabbi Yehuda Glick, of an organization called "The Movement for the Establishment of the Temple", says that the Jewish people have become psychologically connected, over the centuries, to the Western Wall of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem because the rebuilding of the temple seems like an impossible task. Rabbi Glick says that about 25 years ago Jews started to ascend to the Temple Mount even though it was a very small group but now hundreds are now on a regular basis going up on to the Temple Mount to offer their prayers.

The rabbi is now calling for Jews to unite and make every effort to go on to this sacred location for every Jew, the Temple Mount, and become focused on the rebuilding of the next temple in Jerusalem.

The call by a rabbi in Jerusalem to ascend to the Temple Mount in preparation for the next Jewish temple on this sacred site, is the next step to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

Rabbi Yehuda Glick for a number of years directed the efforts of the Temple Institute to prepare for the building of the next Jewish temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The Temple Institute has all the implements needed to operate the temple including the knowledge of the location of the Ark of the Covenant. All 28,000 priests, to be used in the next temple, have been trained and even their priestly garments are either made or being made right now.

However, Rabbi Glick now believes it is time to prepare the Jewish people to become accustomed to ascending the Temple Mount, not only for learning and prayer, but to be involved in the Temple practices as well. That's why he says no more prayers at the Western Wall but instead, let's go up on to the Temple Mount.

God's prophetic Word does say that in the last days the Messiah, Jesus Christ, will return to build the temple on the Temple Mount (Zechariah 1:16, 6:12). That temple built by the Messiah will be His kingdom temple where He reigns for 1000 years. However, before the Messiah's temple is built on the Temple Mount there will be a Tribulation temple (Daniel 9:27, Matthew 24:15, II Thessalonians 2:4, and Revelation 11:1).

Jews ascending onto the Temple Mount today are actually setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
