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 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 times  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.

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.

The Palestinian leadership reaffirms that they have not abandoned their armed struggle against Israel

Listen to Today's Program Play

In an announcement from the leadership of the Palestinian people and even the Palestinian government they reaffirmed their program of armed struggle in resistance against what they call the Israeli occupation of their land and their Palestinian state.

The Palestinian leadership has committed to the creation of a Palestinian state and both factions of the Palestinian people, Hamas and Fatah, believe an armed struggled will be needed to remove the Israeli occupiers from their land in order to be able to create a Palestinian state.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

As the Palestinian terror groups reaffirm their commitment to an armed struggle to remove Israeli occupiers from their land the stage is being set for the end of times scenario that is found in Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been the focus of world leaders for many years as efforts have been made to bring resolution to this conflict. The Palestinians had an opportunity for their own state when the UN put forth the Partition Plan in 1948 and the Palestinians rejected the plan. Now the leadership of the Palestinian people are calling for a two state solution with a Palestinian state and a Jewish state side by side. The struggle between these two peoples has seen many killed on both sides over the years with failure at the peace table in order to be able to come to an agreement.

This conflict did not start in recent history but instead it was 4000 years ago when it started in the womb of their mother. That battle between Jacob and Esau, the Jewish people and the Palestinian people, started as they struggled before birth in their mother Rebecca, Genesis 25:22. God told their mother that these two boys would become two nations, Genesis 25:23 which reveals that these two people would be the Jewish people and the Palestinian people of today. Malachi 1 states that the Palestinians will have their borders and God will call these borders the borders of wickedness. Ezekiel 35 states that the Palestinians will kill the Jews and take their land. Obadiah reveals the end of the Palestinian people when Jesus Christ comes back to earth.

Even though the Palestinians are waging an armed struggle against the Jewish people today, I remind you that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

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.

Japanese astronomers say they have discovered the oldest galaxy in our universe

Listen to Today's Program Play


A team of Japanese astronomers using telescopes on Hawaii say they have seen the oldest galaxy yet discovered which the team says is almost 13 billion light years away from earth and thus the galaxy is at the edge of our universe.

A light year is the distance that light travels in a year at 186,000 miles per second which is about six trillion miles that light would travel each year.

The Japanese astronomers say this latest discovery has enabled them to look back in time and using powerful telescopes will help them to peer deeper and deeper into the dawn of the universe.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A recent discovery of a galaxy almost 13 billion light years from earth is being used as an attack on Bible prophecy and actually the authority of the Bible itself.

The Japanese astronomers that claim they have discovered the oldest galaxy in our universe believe that this discovery has given them the deepest look into the dawn of history thus far by the scientific world. This galaxy is reported to be almost 13 billion light years away from earth at the edge of our universe. Remember, a light year is how far light can travel at 186,000 miles per second in one year and that is around 6 trillion miles which would then be multiplied by 13 billion, an astronomical number.

The use of the term, "Oldest galaxy" by the Japanese astronomers is an attack on the record of Creation found in Genesis 1:6 where it says that the Lord used the term, "and the stars also" to define the creation of stars and all of the galaxies that are in our universe and He did that in one instant. The Apostle Peter warns us that in the last days, the scientific world will attack the concept of biblical Creation because they are "willfully ignorant" of the truth, II Peter 3:5. Peter revealed the denial of the return of Jesus Christ would be present in these days as well because of the ignorant scientists and astronomers, II Peter 3:3-4.

II Peter 3:9 however, says the Lord is not slack concerning His promise to return to earth. He will come back.

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.

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.

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'.

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.

The US State Department slams the Israeli government for not allowing Jewish worshipers to pray on the Temple Mount

Listen to Today's Program Play

The annual report on religious freedom issued by the US State Department has slammed the Israeli government for limiting the rights of Jewish worshipers on the Temple Mount and at the same time giving Muslims complete freedom to worship any way they want on this sacred site.

Israel's official policy is to allow freedom of religion and worship for all, but the Israeli police prevent Jews from praying on Judaism's holiest site, the Temple Mount. The Israeli government has claimed  the reason for restricting non-Muslims, i.e. Christians and Jews from praying on the Temple Mount is due to the possibility of an Islamic reaction that could cause a major war.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

An annual report on religious freedom issued by the US State Department slamming the Israeli government for restricting Jews and Christians from praying on the Temple Mount is actually setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The most recent report on religious freedom around the world issued by the US State Department has slammed the Israeli government for not allowing freedom of religion and worship on the Temple Mount for both Jews and Christians. Israeli policy today is to limit the time that non-Muslims are allowed to even visit the Temple Mount and there is to be no prayer offered on this sacred site by non-Muslims. At the same time, the Israelis allow the Muslim worshipers on the Temple Mount complete freedom. Religious Jews are praying that this state department report will force the Israeli government to relax restrictions for Jewish and Christian worshipers on the Temple Mount.

According to the ancient Jewish prophets there will be total freedom of worship for Jews and Christians on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and possibly in the very near future. Zechariah says that the Messiah, Jesus Christ will return to Jerusalem and build His Temple on the Temple Mount, Zechariah 1:16 and 6:12. Isaiah foretold of a time when all worshipers would go up to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem to learn as the Messiah teaches from this sacred site, Isaiah 2:4. Micah, another Jewish prophet said that the word of the Lord will go forth into all the world from the Temple Mount, Micah 4:2.

The future of the Temple Mount is as the ancient Jewish prophets foretell.

An Egyptian Muslim cleric says people have a thirst for the blood of the Jewish people

Listen to Today's Program Play

Seen recently on Hamas Al Aqsa television in a sermon by the Egyptian Muslim cleric Salah Sultan, the Islamist said that as he traveled across the world he met people who thirsted for the blood of Jews and they are eager for the promised war against the sons of Zion, the Jewish people.

Sultan also said under the previous Egyptian regime over 30,000 Zionists entered Egypt every month and they defiled the land of the Islamist Egyptians.

In the past, Sultan had accused the Jews of making Passover matzahs from the blood of Christian children and has called for the murder of every Zionist who enters Egypt.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A radical Egyptian Muslim cleric calling for the murder of every Jew that enters Egypt so they can quench their thirst for Jewish blood is a page out of Bible prophecy for the last days.

The radical Islamist Muslim cleric Salah Sultan has crossed a line in his call for the murdering of Jews so that people can quench their thirst for Jewish blood. This seems to be the epitome of hatred for the Jewish people by an element of radical Islam. The fact that Hamas television would air such a horrific statement by anyone is beyond the pale as well. However, when you are a student of Bible prophecy you recognize what is for sure setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Down through history, there has been a conflict between the Jews and the Egyptians. Four thousand years ago, the family of Jacob which became the nation of Israel, was under Egyptian bondage for 400 years, a fulfillment of the prophecy in Genesis 15. In recent history, the Jewish state has been involved in at least three wars with Egypt in 1948, 1967, and 1973. As it relates to the future, Egypt will join a coalition of nations that will move to destroy the Jewish state, Daniel 11:40-43 where Egypt is referred to as the King of the North. Other Jewish prophets foretell of a future Israeli-Egyptian conflict as well like Jeremiah and Ezekiel.

A radical Egyptian Muslim cleric saying that people have a thirst for Jewish blood is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

A leading rabbinical thinker says Europe is no longer a Christian continent

Listen to Today's Program Play


Rabbi David Rosen, a leading Jewish thinker, says that the continent of Europe has diversified religiously and is no longer a Christian continent since there are now 13 million Muslims and over one million Jews among the 370 million who tell pollsters that they are Christians, but I must tell you that church attendance is almost nil.

EU institutions avoid God, however in some European member states as well as those nations wanting to join the EU, Christian origins are still politically important.

Some EU leaders voiced concern about the growth of Islam on the European continent and fear the increase of Muslims with the possible entrance of Albania, Kosovo, and Turkey into the membership of the EU.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The subject of religion and its connection to the continent of Europe has a significance in the end times events that are found in Bible prophecy.

A leading rabbinical thinker, David Rosen, says that the continent of Europe has diversified religiously in recent years and is no longer a Christian continent. For hundreds of years, Christianity was headquartered on the European continent and it was the center of missionary activity around the world. With the emergence of the common market in Europe and the ratification of the EU, religion has played less of a role in this part of the world, however the Catholic church has for years worked to make sure that religion played a major role in the EU. Many EU leaders have voiced concerns about the growth of the Muslim population in Europe at this time in history.

This unfolding story echoes what the Bible lays out for the last days scenario on the continent of Europe. Daniel 7:7-24 speaks of the revived Roman Empire that has a major religious element in its makeup. Revelation 13 and 17 both reveal the key role that religion plays in the end times. In fact, in the first 3 1/2 years of the 7 year Tribulation there will be a world religion that will be headquartered in Rome, Italy.

Religion does play a major role in the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

The Arab League warns Israel: Don't touch the Muslim Temple Mount

Listen to Today's Program Play

The Arab League made up of twenty-two Arab member states has issued a warning to Israel to stay away from al -Aqsa Mosque which is located on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. This location is a very sacred spot for the Jewish people and the location of the first and second Jewish Temples over a one thousand year period of time.

Surprisingly, the Arab League's statement termed, "the Mosque on the Temple Mount" - the holiest of the Arab and Islamic holy sites which is contrary to Islamic law that sets Mecca as Islam's holiest site. The Arab League statement said al-Aqsa Mosque is a red line that must not be crossed and any attack would endanger the safety and the stability of the entire Middle Eastern region.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The Arab League's warning to Israel not to touch the Muslim Temple Mount is contradictory to history and Bible prophecy as well.

The Arab League, an organization of 22 Arab states, is very strong in the Middle East and when they issue a warning, it should get everybody's attention. The Muslim world does have custodial responsibility over the Temple Mount but not to the extent that it can be referred to as the Muslim Temple Mount. History contradicts these Muslim claims.

The Bible states that King David captured the Jebusite stronghold of Jerusalem in 1048 BC. This is the time when David made Jerusalem the political capital of the Jewish people, II Samuel 5. Several years later, King David made Jerusalem the spiritual capital of the Jewish people when he brought the Ark of the Covenant into the city. In 1012 BC, Solomon, David's son, built a Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount referred to as Mt. Moriah in II Chronicles 3:1. Mt. Moriah is that sacred spot where Abraham offered his son Isaac as a sacrifice unto the Lord, Genesis 22 in 1872 BC. This history lesson proves that the Temple Mount belongs to the Jews and has belonged to them for almost 4000 years. In addition to that, Bible prophecy says the Temple Mount will be where the Lord will dwell among the Jewish people, His people forever, Psalm 132:13-14.

History has been recorded and Bible prophecy will 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.

Iranian leaders say they will destroy US military bases and the state of Israel within minutes of an attack on their Islamic republic

Listen to Today's Program Play

The commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's Aerospace Division says that his country will destroy US military bases across the Middle East and target Israel within minutes of being attacked by any foreign military forces.

Revolutionary Guard commanders have also threatened to block the Strait of Hormuz through which more than a third of the world's sea-born oil trade passes out of the Gulf which could cause a major global problem.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The Iranian revolutionary guard commander who threatened all US-Middle East military bases and the Jewish state of Israel with a ballistic missile attack is actually setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

During a recent military war games drill in Iran, the Islamic republic test fired ballistic missiles at mock targets representing the US military bases in the Middle East and they threatened America saying within minutes of an attack on Iran these US bases would come under heavy attack. Iran also said that their ballistic missiles had a range of 1300 miles and could target any site in Israel.

This Iranian threat is, as I said, helping to set the stage for an end of times scenario that was foretold in Bible prophecy. The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel wrote in chapter 38 of his prophecy that Iran, mentioned as Persia in verse 5, would be one of the major players as an alignment of nations attack the Jewish state in the last days. Iran will be joined by a coalition of Arab and Islamic states that are listed in Daniel 11:40-45 and Psalm 83. These prophecies will be fulfilled soon after there is a peace, howbeit a pseudo peace, in the Middle East that allows the Jewish people in Israel to seem to be dwelling safely in their land, Ezekiel 38:8-11. One other very interesting thought is that the first three nations to move against Israel in this time will be Syria, Egypt, and Libya, Daniel 11:40-43.

The situation in the Middle East today and this threat from Iran does indeed set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Russian President Vladimir Putin considers himself a key player in the Middle East

Listen to Today's Program Play

During his recent visit to Israel, the Russian President Vladimir Putin made certain that he remained a key player in the region as he met not only with the Israeli PM Netanyahu but also meeting in Bethlehem with the president of the PA and then he crossed the Jordan River to meet with King Abdullah of Jordan.

The Russian president wants the world to know that he and his nation Russia are very much involved in the region and his backing of the Syrian regime in the past along with an open relationship with a number of other Middle Eastern countries gives at least the appearance that Putin is a key player in the region.

Talks between the Israeli PM and President Putin focused on the Iranian nuclear program reminding the Russian president that his nation's involvement in the Iranian nuclear program helped to make Iran Israel's number one threat.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to the Middle East is a reminder of the prophetic scenario that has Russia and its leader as major components in the end of times scenario unfolding in the region as foretold in Bible prophecy.

Vladimir Putin in his second term as president of Russia has been working at making sure the world recognizes him as a key player in the geopolitical activities unfolding in our world today. On his recent trip to the Middle East, Vladimir Putin made contact with Middle Eastern leaders in Israel and Jordan, plus he met with the Palestinian leadership as well. Russia's influence in the Middle East has faded over the years and Putin wants to rekindle his impact on Middle Eastern problems and offer the solutions to these conflicts in the region.

This scenario fits like hand in glove with the prophetic scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy. The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel prewrote history in Ezekiel 38 when in verse 2, the prophet said that Gog in the land of Magog will lead a coalition of nations against the Jewish state in an effort to destroy the nation of Israel. Gog is the personality, Magog is the place or the nation that will be involved. Magog is modern day Russia according to biblical, historic geography. We do not know who Gog, the personality who leads the coalition, is to be.

Whether Vladimir Putin will be Gog, only time will tell when Bible prophecy is fulfilled.

An Israeli political leader calls for an end to Muslim occupation of the Temple Mount

Listen to Today's Program Play

Aryeh Eldad, a member of the Israeli Knesset, has called for the end of Muslim occupation of the Temple Mount which Eldad says dates back 1300 years ago to the time when a Muslim named Omar built the Dome of the Rock over the location of the first and second temples on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

As more and more religious Jews visit the Temple Mount there is a growing demand for the removal of all restrictions imposed by the Muslims and the Jewish people want a freedom to worship on this very sacred location.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A call by an Israeli official for an end to the Muslim occupation of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is a page out of Bible prophecy for the end of times.

Recent incidents on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem have brought about calls by the religious Jewish community for an end to the Muslim occupation of the Temple Mount. Orthodox Jews are forbidden to carry their Bibles onto the Temple Mount and they are restricted from offering any prayers on this holy site. In 691 AD, a Muslim named Omar built what is known as the Dome of the Rock over the location of the two previous Jewish temples. Now, a member of the Israeli Knesset has called for an end to the Muslim occupation of the Temple Mount. Aryeh Eldad, a member of the Israeli Knesset, does not want Muslims removed from the Temple Mount but instead wants total access and freedom of worship on the Temple Mount for the Jewish people.

Bible prophecy reveals what will happen in the future, the Jews will build a temple on the Temple Mount, Daniel 9:7, Matthew 24:15, II Thessalonians 2:4, and Revelation 11:1-2. By the way, that temple will be the Tribulation Temple which will be destroyed at the time of the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ who will build His eternal temple on the Temple Mount where He will rule and reign forever, Zechariah 6:12-13. The prophet Zechariah also foretold of a time when Jerusalem and the Temple Mount in particular will be at the center of controversy, Zechariah 12:2-3.

A Jewish official calling for the end of the Muslim occupation of the Temple Mount is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The Middle East nation of Iran has stepped up its crackdown on Christians

Listen to Today's Program Play

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard has stepped up its campaign on Christians in its nation and Iranian Christians are in a dire situation concerned that this militant Muslim army will close down their churches and even imprison or kill the Christians living in this Islamic republic.

In Iran, the death penalty is imposed on those who convert from Islam to Christianity and those who embrace Christianity are targeted for persecution and even death.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The crackdown on Christians in Iran, and in fact across the entire Middle East, is only the tip of the iceberg as it relates to believers in Christ being persecuted in the last days according to Bible prophecy.

There have been a number of reports coming out of the Middle East that there has been an increase in the attacks on churches and Christians in this region of the world. A high ranking Muslim cleric in Saudi Arabia recently issued a fatwah calling for Muslims to attack all churches, kill Christians and in fact rid the Middle East of Christianity. Now, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, the militia of the supreme council of Iran, has increased their persecution of Iranian Christians and the closing down of churches in Iran.

The biblical book of Revelation written by the Apostle John records prophecies of the martyrdom of believers in Christ during the seven years of great judgment on the earth called the Tribulation. When Satan and his evil angels are thrown out of Heaven, Revelation 12, the Devil will try to eliminate all of those who stand for Jesus Christ. At the end of the Tribulation, to enter the Kingdom and rule and reign with Jesus Christ, Revelation 20:4. In addition, Jews who believe in Jesus Christ will be the focus of Satanic persecution as well during that period of time referred to as the Time of Jacob's Trouble, Revelation 12:13-17.

Iranian persecution of Christians is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The zoning board in the city of Jerusalem has granted access to religious Jews to a spring mentioned in the Garden of Eden

Listen to Today's Program Play

An ancient spring that was mentioned in the Bible as the spring or river Gihon, recorded in the passage in the Holy Scriptures of the account of Creation, is now a place of opportunity for religious men to take a ritual bath in this sacred body of water.

The Gihon Spring in Silwan in the Eastern section of the city of Jerusalem is the site for Jewish men to perform their traditional ritual in the immersion pit, the activity religious Jews are required to do before entering the Temple Mount.

This spring in Jerusalem is considered to be the spot where Adam went after his sin in the Garden of Eden.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Religious Jewish men can now use the one spring in the Garden of Eden to take a ritual bath before entering the Temple Mount, evidence we are living in the end times according to Bible prophecy.

The city of Jerusalem zoning board recently approved the construction of a special project at the Gihon Spring in the City of David which is the original site of the city of Jerusalem. Religious men will use the immersion pit being constructed at the Gihon Spring to take their ritual bath required before they can enter the Temple Mount. However, there is a problem with this decision by the zoning board. The construction project is located in Silwan, a Palestinian neighborhood in the area.

This controversy today is part of the scenario that was foretold by the ancient Jewish prophet Zechariah in Zechariah 12:2. As to the statements that the site on the Gihon is where Adam went after his sin in the Garden of Eden, this statement is confirmed in Scripture only as it refers to the Gihon River being in the Garden of Eden, Genesis 2:10. The Gihon was the one river in the garden which was located in Jerusalem according to I Kings 1:33, 45. The Gihon River was the one river in the garden that became four rivers somewhere outside of the Garden of Eden.

Ezekiel 36:35 says that the Jews will be given back their Garden of Eden in the last days.

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.

The head of the Muslim Brotherhood says the creation of the Jewish state of Israel was the worst catastrophe to ever hit this world

Listen to Today's Program Play

Mohammed Badie who is the Muslim Brotherhood's general guide, the head of this Islamic terror group, has stated the worst catastrophe to ever befall the peoples of this world was the creation of the modern day state of Israel.

The Muslim Brotherhood leader has called on Arab forces to confront Israel and reminded his followers of the movement's sacrifices in efforts to destroy the Jewish state.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A call by the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood for the Arab forces to be ready to sacrifice even life itself in order to destroy the Jewish state of Israel is a page out of Bible prophecy for the end of times.

Mohammed Badie is the head of the Muslim Brotherhood and he believes that the Jews have no right to have a state in the land of their forefathers, the modern day state of Israel. This cry is echoing across the Arab world with an ever increasing intensity in the demand to destroy Israel. It is no surprise to students of Bible prophecy that there is a call for the Jewish state to be destroyed and this demand is actually evidence that Bible prophecy is about to be fulfilled.

Contrary to Mohammed Badie's statement that the modern day creation of Israel is the world's greatest catastrophe, the Bible says that it would happen because the Lord swore by His own name that indeed it would happen, Ezekiel 36:22. The prophecy of the valley of dry bones that watched as these bones came together and with skin covering these newly connected bones, two-thirds of Ezekiel's prophecy in Ezekiel 37 was fulfilled in our day, Ezekiel 37:1-10. Verse 11 of that same passage indicates that these dry bones are the whole house of Israel which has resulted in the modern day Jewish nation.

Ezekiel 38 foretells of a coalition of Arab and Islamic nations that will try to destroy Israel and chapter 39 reveals this alignment of nations will be destroyed instead and the Jewish state will live on forever.

Israeli PM Netanyahu spends time studying the Bible with a group of biblical scholars

Listen to Today's Program Play

Even as the Israeli government is considering a preemptive strike on Iran's nuclear program and facing pressure from the UN, the EU and the US to dismantle their Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria, PM Netanyahu sat in the covered courtyard of his home in Jerusalem spending time studying the Bible.

Joining the Israeli PM were sixteen rabbis, academics, Bible scholars, archaeologists, and linguists in a discussion of the book of Ruth, a passage of scripture focused on a Gentile woman in the lineage of Israel's King David.

It was reported by one Israeli journalist as both reassuring and at the same time, slightly humorous that the PM would set aside two hours of Bible study at a time when Israel faces many problems including a nuclear-powered Iran.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

What some might consider a waste of time for the Israeli PM to set aside two hours for Bible study with rabbis and biblical scholars is actually a perfect example of what this world needs to do as we try to understand how current events seemingly described in the pages of Bible prophecy are about to come to pass.

It has been a tradition of Israeli PMs since the very first one, David Ben Gurion, to set aside time to study the Bible with rabbis and biblical scholars. In that tradition, PM Benjamin Netanyahu has started Bible studies even in light of the major geopolitical events that the PM must face each and every day. A study of Daniel 11, Ezekiel 38, and Psalm 83 would help the PM to recognize the alignment of nations focused on the demise of the Jewish state.

Daniel 7 is a passage that explains the Gentile world powers that will be a major problem for any Israeli PM. Revelation 18 describes for any student of the Bible, the rise of Babylon, modern day Iraq, as a major player in the last days. Daniel 9:27 in the Old Testament and Matthew 24:15 along with II Thessalonians 2:4 in the New Testament, describes a temple in Jerusalem at the time of the end.

PM Netanyahu studying the Bible will only enhance his knowledge of the last days.

In a recent poll, most Americans say Islam is a problem in our world today, but most Americans say ignore the problem

Listen to Today's Program Play

A Rasmussen poll reveals that Americans believe Islam is in a global conflict with the West but most think that the US should ignore the Islamic world even in light of the decade long war on Islamic terrorism that the US has been waging.

Americans are split on whether Muslims see the US as an enemy as revealed by the national telephone survey taken by the Rasmussen Polling Organization.

Sixty-three percent of those polled see a conflict between their civilization and Islam, but the majority nevertheless want to take an isolationist view of Islam and believe the US should just leave the Muslim world alone.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The majority of Americans see Islam as a problem in our world, but they want to stick their heads in the sand and leave the Islamic problem alone which is actually setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

It is a dangerous situation to recognize a major problem and then ignore it altogether, that is actually what the majority of Americans are doing as they know that Islam is a problem in our world today and they choose to ignore the problem. A recent Rasmussen poll of Americans reveals that 63% of the people in the US believe that Islam is a problem in our world and that Islam is in a major conflict with the nations in the West and yet Americans want to simply ignore the problem.

Bible prophecy tells us that we cannot ignore this problem. The prophet Daniel wrote of Syria and Egypt being joined by a coalition of nations to move forward to destroy the Jewish state of Israel, Daniel 11:40-43. The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel gave additional names that will join this coalition, nations like: Russia, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Sudan, and Libya, Ezekiel 38. Saudi Arabia and Lebanon are also added to this list by the Psalmist in Psalm 83. The lowest common denominator with all of these nations with the exception of Russia, is that they are Islamic nations.

Islamic nations and their religion will indeed play a major role in the last days.

The former PM of Spain has quoted Russian President Vladimir Putin as saying Israel will take care of Iran

Listen to Today's Program Play

Speaking at a recent gathering of politicos at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, the former PM of Spain Jose Aznar said that Russian President Vladimir Putin told him not to worry about Iran because as Putin said, "Israel will take care of Iran".

Putin made these statements after Aznar entreated the Russian president not to sell the S300 anti-aircraft missiles to Iran which would allow Iran to set in place a defensive system that could deter an Israeli preemptive strike on Iran's nuclear weapons program.

The former Spanish PM also held a meeting with the Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei who told Aznar that Israel was a historic cancer condemned to disappear and that it was inevitable that there would be an open confrontation between the Jewish state and Iran.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

The statement by Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei that it is inevitable, there will be a confrontation between Iran and Israel is biblically correct, but the endgame is different than the Iranian leader's claim of victory for his nation, that is according to Bible prophecy.

Two world leaders have voiced different opinions as how a confrontation between Israel and Iran militarily would come out. The supreme leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei believes in such a conflict, Iran would make Israel disappear and he was working to that end. Russian President Vladimir Putin believes that Israel would take care of the Iranian nuclear problem which Putin says justifies the sell of any nuclear technology or military hardware to Iran.

The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel wrote of this Iranian-Israeli conflict 2500 years ago in Ezekiel 38:5 when he mentioned Iran of today referred to in that passage as Persia in biblical times. Iran will be a member of the coalition of nations who align themselves against Israel to destroy the Jewish state, Ezekiel 38, Daniel 11, and Psalm 83. However, the endgame will be different than expected by Israel's enemies.

Ezekiel 38:18-39:6 says that the Lord will intervene and wipe out not only Iran but all of Israel's enemies.

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 call by the official of the Palestinian Authority for the Palestinian people to unite in order to destroy the Jewish state of Israel is a page out of Bible prophecy for the last days.

In a large Palestinian rally attended by female Palestinian prisoners recently released from Israeli jails, an official of the Palestinian Authority called for the reunification of the Palestinian people.  The Palestinian Authority minister said that the Palestinians must unite in order to achieve their goal of the destruction of the Jewish state of Israel and the establishment of a Palestinian state on all the land that today belongs to the Jewish people.

This Palestinian plan fits exactly with the prophetic passages found in the Bible that reveals what will happen in the last days between Israel and the Palestinians.  Malachi wrote that the Edomites, the Palestinian people of today, would return to Israel and set up borders - borders which the Lord said will be borders of wickedness (Malachi 1).  Ezekiel foretold of a time when the Palestinians would kill the Jewish people and then take their land (Ezekiel 35).  The little prophetic book of Obadiah says that the Palestinians will become intoxicated with power as they take the steps to rid the land now known as Israel of the Jewish people, but these Palestinians themselves will be destroyed (Obadiah 15-18).

Calls for the Palestinians to unite in order to be able to destroy Israel will only set the stage for the opposite to happen.  Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

An Israeli rabbi has called for the restoration of animal sacrifices on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem

Listen to Today's Program Play

Rabbi Yisrael Ariel, the leader of the Temple Institute in Jerusalem, has called for the restoration of animal sacrifices on the Temple Mount even though the temple has not been rebuilt yet and the rabbi said the face is that the Temple Mount is in Arab hands must end so that the Jews may go onto the Temple Mount and offer these animal sacrifices.

In Biblical times, when the temple was on the Temple Mount and especially during the high holy days, Jews from around the world would come to Jerusalem to offer animal sacrifices and today everything is  ready to resume these sacrifices.  The priests are trained and ready, their garments are made, and the implements for the sacrificial system are ready to be used to follow God's command.  The Israeli government and the Muslim world are the only hindrances to restoring these animal sacrifices. 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

An Israeli rabbi calling for the restoration of animal sacrifices on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is a precursor for the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

When the Jewish temple was destroyed by the Romans in 70AD there ceased to be a place for animal sacrifices for the Jewish people so that they could follow the Biblical mandate to offer sacrifices.  Today all preparations have been made to both build the temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and then to restore the sacrificial system.  In fact, the Bible does mandate a return to animal sacrifices when the Messiah, Jesus Christ, returns to the earth, Zechariah 14:4, to build His temple in Jerusalem, Zechariah 1:16, 6:12.  Ezekiel 45 foretells of the sacrificial system being restored in the Kingdom period.  These kingdom sacrifices will be done in remembrance of the ultimate sacrifice by Jesus Christ and in addition, the Jews will offer sacrifices at that time for the purpose of restoring fellowship with the Messiah.  However, prior to the kingdom temple, there will be another temple in Jerusalem during the seven year Tribulation with a return to sacrifices, Daniel 9:27, Matthew 24:15, II Thessalonians 2:4, and Revelation 11:1-2.

A rabbi calling for the return of the sacrificial system today is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The growing antisemitic trends around the world and especially in Europe have Jews in fear for their lives

Listen to Today's Program Play

An ever increasing number of attacks on Jews around the world, including the attack on a Jewish school in southern France, has put fear in the hearts of Jewish people living in what would be considered a civilized world, a fear for their lives and the lives of their families as antisemitism continues to grow globally.

A recent survey of people in ten European nations reveals that 30% of Europeans have antisemitic beliefs and still believe that Jews are responsible for the death of Jesus Christ, the main motivation for antisemitism.  An additional factor in the increase of European antisemitism is the ever growing population of Muslims around the world but especially all across the European continent, a factor that results from the Islamic beliefs that Jews should be removed from the earth. 

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

Growing antisemitism around the world and especially in Europe is evidence that the scenario found in Bible prophecy is moving ever so close to the fulfillment of these prophecies for the end times. 

A number of violent attacks on Jews around the world and the attack by a radical Muslim on a Jewish school in France is tangible evidence that the rise in antisemitism in our world is becoming a major threat to the Jewish people today.  A recent survey among ten European nations indicated that the belief that Jews were responsible for the death of Jesus Christ is a major factor in this rise in antisemitism.  It is also true that the ever increasing Muslim population in Europe is a factor in antisemitism among the European peoples. 

Couple this survey information with the Arab and Muslim world's use of radical rhetoric towards Israel and the Jewish people and the stage is being set for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.  Several ancient Jewish prophets revealed a time when the world would hate the Jews and want to rid the world of these people.  Zechariah wrote 2500 years ago that at that time 2 out of every 3 Jews would be hated and then killed.  Evil angels, led by the devil himself, will try and kill every Jew on the earth (Revelation 12:7-17).  Jeremiah called this terrible time in the future the "time of Jacob's trouble" (Jeremiah 30:7).  Daniel wrote in 12:1, that the Lord would dispatch Michael the archangel to protect the Jews from complete annihilation.

Antisemitism today will lead to Bible prophecy being fulfilled in a future tomorrow.

The highest ranking Moslem cleric in Saudi Arabia is calling for all churches to be destroyed

Listen to Today's Program Play

The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Sheik Abdul Abdullah, says that it is necessary to destroy all churches in the Middle East, and he based his declaration on the Islamic holy book, the Hadith, which quotes Mohammad as saying on his death bed, that only Islam can be practiced in the Middle East.  The Mufti asserted that all law in the Middle East must conform to Sharia, the law of the Koran as revealed by Allah, the Islamic god. 

This declaration by the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia comes on the heels of a Wall Street Journal article written by the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations which stated that Arab discrimination against Christian minorities is a prevalent phenomenon throughout the Arab world.

A declaration by the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia that Christian churches in the Middle East must be destroyed is a page out of Bible prophecy. 

Over the last several years there have been many reports of Christian churches being destroyed and church attenders being killed by radical Islamists.  This phenomenon has been on the increase in recent days and the declaration from the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia that all Christian churches in the Middle East must be destroyed, will only add to the urgency of this destruction by Moslem radicals. 

Across the Arab world, more and more Christians and their churches and leaders, are the focus of a fast growing element in our world today who say only the Islamic religion is the one that all of human kind must be a part of in this time in history.  This scenario unfolding today was actually written about in a yesterday over 2000 years ago.  John, the human writer of the book of Revelation, wrote of the slaughter of believers in Jesus Christ in a number of locations in the book of Revelation.  Revelation 6:9-11 foretells of a time when those who stand for the Word of God, the Bible, and who have a testimony that Jesus Christ is their Savior, these believers will be killed.  Revelation 20:4 says that they will be beheaded for their faith.  These Biblical prophecies are referring to the time of Tribulation, that seven year period of judgment on the earth following the Rapture and before the Second Coming of Christ. 

The Grand Mufti's call for all Christian churches in the Middle East to be destroyed is indeed a lead up to Bible prophecy being fulfilled.
