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.

A Muslim preacher on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem says this sacred piece of real estate belongs to the Muslims and it will belong to them forever

Listen to Today's Program Play

Sheikh Yousef Salami, a Muslim preacher at Al Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, said that this sacred spot is an Islamic holy site as determined by the Creator of the world and as indicated in the Koran and shall belong to Muslims forever.

The sheikh's statement was in response to a ruling by Israel's attorney general that the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is part of Israeli territory and Israeli law applies to this holy site.

The Temple Mount was left in the hands of an Islamic Trust by the Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Dayan at the time of the reunification of Jerusalem during the Six Day War in 1967 and the Muslims have since then tried to remove every evidence of any Jewish presence at this Jewish holy site.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A statement by a Muslim preacher that the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is an Islamic holy site and will belong to the Muslims forever is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Shiekh Yosef Salami stated recently that the Temple Mount in Jerusalem belongs to the Muslims and will belong to them forever based on the Koran. The shiekh said that the holy site was an Islamic site so  determined by the Creator of the world. Since the reunification of Jerusalem during the Six Day War in 1967, the Islamic Trust has had custodial control of the Temple Mount but Israel claims sovereignty over this holy site. The Jews say that the Temple Mount is the most sacred site in all of Judaism which is backed up by God's Word, the Bible.

God promised Jewish King David this holy site for a temple that one day will stand on the Temple Mount forever, II Samuel 7. Jesus said He would come back to Jerusalem and build that temple one day, Zechariah 1:16. The Temple Mount is the holy mountain of God according to Daniel 9:16, 20; a place where the Lord said He would dwell among His people, the Jewish people, forever, Psalm 132:13-14.

This pronouncement by a Muslim preacher that the Temple Mount will belong to the Muslims forever is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to 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.

Egypt's highest ranking Muslim cleric wants all Jews removed from Jerusalem

Listen to Today's Program Play

Ahmed a- Taib, the highest ranking cleric in Egypt and one of the most important clerics in the entire Sunni Arab world, has called on all Muslims who value their religion, to join him in his effort to stop the Judaization of Jerusalem. A- Taib has set up a special committee to prevent the progress of the Zionist plan to Judaize Jeruslaem and the Islamic cleric has called on all Muslim leaders to commit to using whatever sources that they have at their disposal to defend al Aksa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News


The call by an Egyptian Muslim cleric to liberate the city of Jerusalem is a call to arms in the Islamic world but it is also a page out of Bible prophecy for the last days. 

The highest ranking Muslim cleric in Egypt and perhaps the entire Sunni Arab world has set in motion a plan to remove all Jews from the city of Jerusalem. Underneath the banner of a campaign to stop the Judaization of Jerusalem, Ahmed a- Taib has called on all Muslims everywhere to join his efforts to remove Jews from Jerusalem and to use every source at their disposal to achieve their goal. A meeting between A- Taib and the leaders of the Islamic terror group Hamas brought a strategy together for achieving their goal of a Jew free Jerusalem. This report is tangible evidence of how the prophetic scenario found in Bible prophecy is quickly approaching the fulfillment on each of the prophecies related to the city of Jerusalem. 

Zechariah 12:2 says that in the last days Jerusalem will be the center of controversy. The Davidic Covenant found in II Samuel 7 reveals that the Lord will place the Jews in Jerusalem forever and there He will protect them from all of their enemies. Jesus Christ said that He would return to Jerusalem (Zechariah 14:4) and there build a temple where He will rule and reign forever (Zechariah 6:12-13). Jerusalem is the place where the Lord said that He would dwell among His people, the Jewish people, forever (Psalm 132:13-14). 

No Muslim cleric or anyone else for that matter can stop Bible prophecy from being fulfilled.

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 conversation using the Hebrew language in 1891 set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled

Listen to Today's Program Play

In a Paris cafe in 1881, a group met to have a conversation, a conversation using the Hebrew language and it may have been the first modern conversation in Hebrew in some 2000 years.

Eliezer Ben Yehuda was one of the group speaking in Hebrew and Ben Yehuda would use this conversation to launch an effort to revive the Hebrew language as a spoken language a language that would become the mother tongue of the Israeli people today.

Ben Yehuda would during his lifetime establish an institution which would create new Hebrew words for today's society and give the Jewish people the language of their forefathers that is a spoken language once again in our world.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The revival of the Hebrew language, the mother tongue of Israelis today, is evidence that Bible prophecy is being fulfilled.

Eliezer Ben Yehuda, a European Jew in the late 1800's who immigrated to Israel to raise his family would become the man credited with reviving the ancient Hebrew language. For almost 2000 years, Hebrew was not a spoken language with the exception of a few phrases used in religious activities. Ben Yehuda, starting with a conversation with friends in Paris, France developed a modern day usage of the language of the Jewish people for the first 2000 years of their existence.

Modern day Hebrew is made up of Biblical Hebrew which is 80% of modern day Hebrew and 20% of new Hebrew words that have been created over the last 130 years. Ben Yehuda put together the first Hebrew dictionary for modern Hebrew and developed the way to teach the language which is called "Ulpan". This account of how Hebrew was revived for usage today is an evidence of how Bible prophecy is being fulfilled today.

Jeremiah, an ancient Jewish prophet wrote 2500 years ago that when the Jews would return to the land of their forefathers, Jeremiah 31:8-17, the Lord would give them back the language of their forefathers, the language they would use to bless the Lord, Jeremiah 31:23. Another Jewish prophet, Zephaniah, also predicted that the pure language of Hebrew would be revived in the last days, Zephaniah 3:9.

Israelis speaking Hebrew today proves that Bible prophecy will 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.

A recently born Red Heifer to be used for the building of the next Jewish Temple in Jerusalem has been disqualified

Listen to Today's Program Play

Several months ago the Temple Institute was delighted to announce the birth of a perfect Red Heifer here in the United States. This heifer was a proper and fitting candidate for the ordinance of the red heifer found in Numbers 19, which is a prerequisite to the restoration of the purity and the ultimate resumption of the divine service in the Holy Temple.

Unfortunately, upon recent inspection, it has become clear that this red heifer has become disqualified for use for the ordinance of the red heifer and is now unfit according to Biblical law. However, Rabbi Chaim Richmond, the International Director of the Temple Institute, and the expert on the Red Heifer, says that they have learned much from this experience and it has been a great inspiration for the Temple Institute's work to build a Temple in Jerusalem.



Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Even without a Red Heifer, the Temple Institute is well prepared to build the next Temple in Jerusalem.

The Temple Institute, for over 30 years, has been preparing to build the next temple in the City of Jerusalem, which Biblical law requires of the Jewish people. Over 28,000 men who say they are qualified from the tribe of Levi to be priest in that Temple have been studying the priestly duties.

All the implements have been made and are in storage to be used in this next Temple. They have the Table of Showbread, the Alter of Incense, and the seven branched candelabra - the Menorah; in fact there are those who know exactly where the Ark of the Covenant is, three men have visited the location and are ready to bring it out when there is a Temple on the Temple Mount.

The Ark of the Covenant is known by these three men because of the scriptures, 2 Chronicles 35:3, which indicates that the Ark of the Covenant was moved to a location that Solomon had built to protect it during a time of trouble. The Priestly Garments have been made, in fact one Rabbi, the first one to receive his priestly garment, says that his priestly garment is hanging in his closet. He is ready to put it on and report to the Temple Mount for duty.

Over 4,000 harps have been prepared to use in the Temple, the 70 wise Jewish scholars, the Sanhedrin, has been reformed and in reality everything is prepared to build that next Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

Less than ten percent of all born again Christians have a Biblical world view

Listen to Today's Program Play

George Barna, a pollster with an independent marketing research company, found in a recent survey that only 4% of the overall population of America and 9% of born-again Christians have a biblical world view, suggesting that many of the nation's moral and spiritual challenges are directly attributable to this fact.

For the purposes of the research, a biblical world view was defined as believing that absolute moral truth exists, that such truth is defined by the Bible, and that the Bible is accurate in all of its teachings.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A biblical world view based upon understanding Bible prophecy is essential for an understanding of the times we live in today.

Let's look at the provision in scripture for a biblical world view. All scripture is God breathed. That means it's inspired and is profitable for doctrine, for correction, and instruction in righteousness, that's II Timothy 3:16. God gave the scriptures to the Jew to preserve and communicate to mankind, Romans 3:1-2. And thus, we have His written Word for us today. Our blessings and understanding comes from God's provision of His heart, His mind, His thoughts in written form, the Bible.

Now, let's look at the priority for studying a biblical world view. The Apostle Paul wrote that we must study the Word of God, a workman that need not be ashamed, relying on God's Word for all of life's questions. We must rightly divide the Word of truth, the Bible, to ascertain its true meaning. These two principles, study and rightly dividing the Word of God, are instruction for the End Times and they come from Paul's exhortation to young Timothy found in II Timothy 2:15.

Finally, let's look at the prophetic scenario of a biblical world view. A study of Bible prophecy reveals the scenario for the Last Days with a seven year period of judgment in our world followed by the return of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, to establish His Kingdom here on earth. However, preceding that seven years of judgment, those who are true born again Christians will be taken out of this world to be with Jesus Christ, that's the Rapture.
Allowing the Bible to form our world view prepares us for these future events and gives us evidence as to how close they may be.

A leading rabbi in Jerusalem believes the Temple will be rebuilt in his lifetime

Listen to Today's Program Play

In a documentary produced by my son, Jim Jr., a leading rabbi in Jerusalem says that he believes the next Jewish temple will be rebuilt on the Temple Mount in his lifetime and he says everything is ready to build that temple today. Rabbi Nachman Kahane, the rabbi who has guided many Jewish students of the Scriptures on the subject of the temple has been the main source of serious study and preparations to build the Jewish temple basically because that is what the Bible calls for from the religious Jews. 

In Rabbi Kahane's Yeshiva, which is a place of learning for Jewish young men, the rabbi trained all the leaders of this effort to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem and it was his students that started the Temple Institute which has accumulated all the implements for the next temple and trained the men to operate that temple. 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

All the preparations have been made to rebuild the next Jewish temple in Jerusalem which is in essence a page out of Bible prophecy for the end of times. Twenty years ago I sat with Rabbi Nachman Kahane as he was beginning his quest to rebuild the Jewish temple in Jerusalem on the Temple Mount. Now twenty years later the rabbi believes that the temple will indeed be rebuilt in his lifetime. That is a quote from the rabbi on a documentary released on the subject that shows the rabbi plus many others who also agree that the temple could be standing in Jerusalem in the very near future. 

Rabbi Yehuda Glick, the former head of the Temple Institute, says even the priestly garments are ready and the temple will stand in full operation very soon. Rabbi Chaim Richman, who is the leading authority on the red heifer, says the temple will be built at the spot of the original site of the Garden of Eden which he says is the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Rabbi Yoel Keren says that there will be a Jewish temple in Jerusalem that follows the details in Ezekiel 40-46 but first the Jewish people will build a less extravagant temple as they did when the Second Temple was rebuilt 2500 years ago. The priests have been trained, the implements made to operate the temple, even the Menorah, the seven branched candelabra, and there are ten stringed harps for the Levites to play as called for by King David in I Chronicles 23:5. 

With all preparations made for the next temple, Bible prophecy is about to be fulfilled.

The US government says that Jewish settlements are illegitimate

Listen to Today's Program Play

The US government says that Jewish settlers in Judea and Samaria which they refer to as the West Bank are living in settlements that are illegitimate and the settlements must be dismantled and the settlers removed. I asked my broadcast partner longtime journalist in Jerusalem David Dolan, "Is this a major break between the US administration and the Israeli government?"

David Dolan: Well, there is but again there has been. It's a similar situation. Really, no American administration from the time when Lyndon Johnson was president, when Israel captured Judea and Samaria in 1967, no US government has ever recognized Israeli activities there certainly community building, road building, that sort of thing, calling these occupied territories. That is the US official position and it has been. On the other hand, President George W. Bush gave Ariel Sharon a letter promising that the US administration would agree to Israel holding on to major settlement blocks, areas where there is heavy concentrations of Jewish communities.

These the US recognized would remain under Israeli control and in exchange, Israel would give the Palestinians equal amounts of territory somewhere else probably adjacent to Gaza, maybe adjacent to other portions of the West Bank. That was the understanding, that was what the Israelis were promised, so if the Obama administration is going back on that then it's a revoking of an earlier commitment made by the US government to the Israelis. Again, we'll see how concrete that action, those words are translated into by the government here.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

As the US government takes on the promises of God to the Jewish people, the stage is being set for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Over the years, the US governments have had conflict with Israel over the issue of Jews living in what the US terms the West Bank and the Jews refer to as Judea and Samaria. Those Jewish settlers say that God gave this piece of real estate, Judea and Samaria to them, Ezekiel 34. They also say that the land is theirs forever, Ezekiel 36. The book of Ezekiel 35 says that the Palestinians also want that land and they will kill the Jews, verse 5 and take the land, verses 10-13.

US denial that the land does belong to the Jews is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

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.

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.

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.

The president of the PA denies that there was a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and denies Christian theology

Listen to Today's Program Play

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.

Pope Francis says that the world should not judge gay people

Listen to Today's Program Play

Pope Francis when asked about the gay lobby in the Vatican responded with the statement that we should not judge gay people but instead integrate them into society. Our broadcast partner Mike Gendron in Dallas, TX reports what the official stand on sodomy is in the Catholic church.

Mike Gendron: The cataclysm of the Catholic church does not condemn homosexuality outright, it merely teaches that homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered. So that's one of the problems. This homosexual problem within Rome will continue until the issue of celibacy is looked at. The Roman Catholic church needs recognize that as long as it forbids its clergy people to marry that they are going to have to have some form of sexual expression and oftentimes this results in homosexuality.

There's an ongoing problem and I think what's happening here in the Vatican is really the tip of the iceberg because in 2002 there is a book that really exposed much of the scandal and perversions that are taking place in Catholic seminaries. The book is entitled "Goodbye Good Men" by author Michael Rose, and he said in his book according to former seminarians and recently ordained priests that this gay subculture is so prominent at certain seminaries that these institutions have earned nicknames. It has been said that over half of the Roman Catholic priests are now homosexuals and seminaries are but a proven ground for them to come out and put on a collar and hide their sinful condition.

Sodomy, homosexuality in the Catholic church is a sign that Jesus is about to return to the earth, that is according to Bible prophecy.

Jesus warned in Luke 17:28 that He would return to the earth when our society was like the days of Lot 4000 years ago. In that day, sodomy, homosexuality was prevalent in Sodom and Gomorrah. Men were having sexual relationships with other men. Our society today is once again immersed in sodomy approved by many people even the leaders of our nation. who commit sodomy and even those who approve of it. The Apostle Paul wrote that God rejects this lifestyle of sodomy, homosexuality and will judge those who commit sodomy and even those who approve of it, Romans 1:24-32.

Open homosexuality in the Catholic church is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to 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'.

There is a growing number of prophecy teachers that do not believe that the Bible is the final authority for future events

Listen to Today's Program Play

Recently at Pike's Peak in Colorado there was a prophecy conference that used a new approach to teaching Bible prophecy. Our broadcast partner David James explains the term which refers to the new approach, the term "Post-modern prophetic paradigm".

David James: When we talk about post modernism in general we're talking about moving into a realm of philosophy and thought where there are no absolutes, that there are many sources of relative truth, that you can look to multiple places to try to get your ideas, truth can be found in any number of places and also isn't just simply something that's objective, that would be post modern.

Then, they are combining these ideas into trying to develop a prophetic view of the future eschatology, end times. There's a convergence of a lot of different strands. A paradigm is simply a model. There's an emerging model of the future eschatology trying to combine ideas from the Bible, from ancient civilizations, from bio technology, just a number of different strands they're trying to put together to layout a potential future scenario.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

False teachers departing from God's Word to teach Bible prophecy is actually setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The new approach to teaching Bible prophecy, a post-modern prophetic paradigm goes outside the boundaries of the Word of God, Genesis 1:1-Revelation 22:21, and they go outside of these boundaries in an effort to bring information to the table in their teachings of Bible prophecy. This allows for another spirit, the spirit of Satan to influence their thinking. The Apostle Peter wrote 2000 years ago that we have a more sure Word of prophecy, the Bible, II Peter 1:19. In II Peter 2:1 the Apostle says that in the last days there will be false teachers.

Those teaching Bible prophecy with a new paradigm are actually setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Jews around the world are praying for a Temple to be rebuilt in Jerusalem within the next year

Listen to Today's Program Play

Today is Tish B' Av, the ninth day of the Jewish month of Av, the date in history when both the first and second temples were destroyed. Rabbi Yoel Keren in Jerusalem tells us that the Jews mourn over these destructions but also are praying for a Temple to be rebuilt by next year at this time.

Rabbi Yoel Keren: Well that is really the question now. The question is why are we doing this? Has the mourning and the sitting on the floor and the reading Lamentations, has it become a goal in and of itself or are we doing it for a reason, are we doing it to motivate ourselves to get back and find the will of God and seek His will, and seek to be with Him and to do what He wants of us or has we just become used to the mourning and that in itself is the goal? That is the question.

That is what we are trying to get people to realize. The Temple Institute just put out a new video that is a feed of all the people sitting on the floor in the synagogue on the ninth of Av, they are all mourning and the rabbi is up there, he is crying and the children are in a room to the side and one boy stands up and points at a picture of the Temple and starts to talk to the other children and the kids all have these toy tool belts,  they all strap on these tool belts and they all walk out and pull their fathers up off the floor and say come let's go build it! That is the question the Jewish people are beginning to ask themselves. God willing they will come to the right conclusion soon.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

As the Jews pray for the next Temple to be rebuilt in Jerusalem, they have already prepared everything for construction to begin on that Temple.

For over 25 years, men who claim to be Jewish priests who will be able to operate the Temple have been studying to do the duties of the next Temple. They have prepared all the implements, they have a red heifer, they know exactly where the Ark of the Covenant is, they are ready to rebuild the Temple as Bible prophecy calls for them to do in Daniel 9:27, Matthew 24:15, II Thessalonians 2:4, and Revelation 11:1,2. These passages of Scripture tell us that there will indeed be a Temple on the Temple Mount in the Tribulation Period, that seven years of judgment yet to come which begins right after the Rapture of the Church.

With everything ready to build the next Temple on the Temple mount in Jerusalem, indeed Bible prophecy is ready to be fulfilled.

Pope Francis has used his leadership role to change the Roman Catholic church

Listen to Today's Program Play

In his leadership role as Pope of the billion plus Catholic worshipers, Pope Francis now leads this 2,000-year-old church into the future differently than any previous Pope due to the fact that he is a Jesuit. The world continues to watch Pope Francis implement his style of leadership with a mission to expand the outreach of Catholicism and to enlarge the total number of the Catholic worshipers to the worldwide church.

Since the Jesuits are the militant arm of the Catholic church with a desire to see the world convert, only time will tell how successful Pope Francis will be with his mission as leader of the church.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The leadership of Pope Francis will set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Pope Francis, the first Jesuit to ever lead the Catholic church as Pope, brings to his leadership role a desire to convert all the world to Catholicism. The Jesuits, founded in 1540 AD were brought together as a counter reformation movement. They want to turn back the reformation of Luther and Knox and bring all non-Catholics back into the fold. They have an eschatology that believes that all the world will one day be of the Catholic church and then Jesus Christ will come back to rule this worldwide kingdom that they have set up.

True biblical eschatology, which is a study of the end times, states that the false church that will be headquartered in Rome, Italy the seven mountain city will indeed come to power in the first half of the coming Tribulation Period, Revelation 17. This ecclesiastical Babylon will be led by the Antichrist who is referred to as the Beast some eight times in Revelation 17. Revelation 17:16 reveals that the world leaders, the revived Roman Empire, will rise up and destroy the false church and give their power worldwide dominion to the Antichrist, Revelation 17:17 which indicates that the Lord Himself will put into the hearts and minds of these world leaders to accomplish His will. This will then open the opportunity for the Antichrist to rule a worldwide economic Babylon yet in the future.

The mass majority of Israeli Jews want a Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem

Listen to Today's Program Play

A recent survey in Israel reveals the desire of the Jewish people both the religious and secular Jews who want a Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Our broadcast partner, Yoel Keren in Jerusalem has this report for us.

Yoel Keren: Just this last week, major newspapers in Israel, I couldn't believe it, I picked up the paper and I see a large picture of the Temple Mount and it was a new set of surveys of how many people want a Temple on the Temple Mount, how many people believe it's important for Jews to be visiting the Temple Mount. Unbelievably, the percentage of secular, non religious Jews that want Jews on the Temple Mount, that want a Temple is a greater percentage than the Ultra-Orthodox who want the Temple and want Jews on the Temple Mount.

That may be hard to understand, but for an Israeli, he understands the way the Ultra-Orthodox mind thinks and how he believes everything must stay exactly as it is and never change, the Temple is a very frightening thing for him and he doesn't want to think about it. He wants to believe that when the Messiah comes He'll bring the Temple with Him from Heaven or something like that. It may very well be that just as the state of Israel was initially built up by the secular, the Temple may well come about through the same means.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

According to a recent survey taken among both religious and secular Jews in Israel, it was revealed that the mass majority want a Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem  which is an end time scenario found in Bible prophecy.

According to Bible prophecy, there will be a Temple in Jerusalem, Zechariah 6:12 which says that the Messiah will build a Temple on the Temple Mount, that will be during the Kingdom Period, that thousand year period of time when the Messiah, Jesus Christ comes to rule on  the earth. However, other Jewish prophets foretell of a Temple before that Kingdom and that is talking about a Temple that will stand there during the Tribulation Period, Daniel 9:27 also Matthew 24:15 where Jesus said when you see the Abomination of Desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, flee for the wilderness. The Apostle Paul wrote also in II Thessalonians 2:4 there will be a Temple where the Antichrist will enter and John the Revelator says that it will happen in the Tribulation Period, Revelation 11:1-2.

This recent survey says that Jews want a Temple in Jerusalem and indeed this is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
