ISLAM POSES A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO OUR FREEDOM

Posted on by

What is happening in the UK, France, Holland and most European countries where immigration has resulted in Muslims making up a significant % of their population. demonstrates that Islam poses a significant threat to our freedom.

The rise of anti-American rhetoric and violence in cities and universities is a direct result of Islamic indoctrination led by those perpetrating a religious war against the West. After all, the Quran teaches that infidels must convert or be killed. PragerU’s short documentary features first-hand accounts from those who escaped Islamic rule and have come to warn America. 

Even in Australia, who would have thought we would see antisemitism marches in major cities with young Australians chanting from the river to the sea Palestine will be free.

Islam features prominently in Biblical end times prophecies as does Israel, the nation God set up to reveal Himself and His commandments to the world. As could be expected, Satan is using Islam to do his best to rid the world of the Jews and Israel.

The Bible reveals that there is a coming end times war against Israel involving most of the Islamic countries surrounding Israel which fits with what we see unfolding in the world today. Many Biblical end times prophecies are already unfolding exactly as predicted so we can expect firstly a peace pact which gives Israel a false sense of security and then the invasion.

Ezekiel (38 & 39) prophesied about a coalition of nations that will launch an attack against Israel. These are not just any nations—they are today’s Muslim-majority countries. At the time Ezekiel wrote the prophecy, Islam did not even exist. But as we examine the geography and history behind the ancient names listed in the text—names like Magog, Persia, Gomer, and Togarmah—we find they correspond to modern regions like Iran, Turkey, Libya, and Sudan.

The video features:

– Ayman Abu Suboh (later Dor Shachar), a Palestinian who escaped to Israel from the terror of Hamas and later converted to Judaism. 

– Sophia Salma Khalifa, an Arab Muslim born in Israel who moved to the U.S. to earn her master’s degree from Stanford University. 

– Omar Vieira, retired U.S. Navy SEAL who served for 21 years and led high-risk operations in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other locations in the Middle East.

– Jason Tuschen, retired U.S. Navy SEAL Command Master Chief who served for 27 years and was responsible for executing National Security Strategy in the Middle East.

REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY AND ANTISEMITISM

Posted on by

Throughout history, theology has not only shaped Church doctrines but has also deeply influenced social and political ideas, national policies, and public opinion. Among the theological systems that have had far-reaching consequences, replacement theology stands out for its historical and ongoing influence on the development of antisemitism.

Augustine of Hippo (354–430 AD) remains one of the most influential voices in Western Christianity. He spiritualised the promises made to Israel, arguing that the Church was the “New Israel.” Augustine’s City of God posited that the Jews were a witness people – preserved only to confirm the truth of Scripture, but without any divine favour or future.

This “doctrinal de-Judaising” of Christianity, spearheaded by Augustine and cemented by the medieval Church, fed into the bloodstream of Western Christian thought for over a millennium.

If Augustine sowed the seeds, Martin Luther (1483–1546) watered them with toxic rhetoric. Early in his career, Luther advocated kindness toward Jews in the hope of converting them. But when Jews rejected his overtures, Luther’s tone shifted drastically. In his infamous tract “On the Jews and Their Lies” (1543), Luther wrote:

“What shall we Christians do with this rejected and condemned people, the Jews?… I advise that their synagogues be set on fire…”

Luther’s writings went beyond theological speculation. They were political and social prescriptions. His ideas formed the theological backdrop for centuries of German antisemitism. The Third Reich found in Luther a useful ideological ally, quoting him in Nazi propaganda to justify their genocidal policies.

Dispensationalism: A Biblical Defence of Israel

By the mid-19th century, a corrective theological movement arose that affirmed that God has distinct plans for Israel and the Church. This system – sometimes called dispensationalism – insists on a literal interpretation of Scripture, particularly Old Testament prophecy.

This doctrine, broadly understood, is not new. It has had high-profile supporters all throughout Church history, including Irenaeus and Tertullian.

Dispensationalists argue that the promises made to Abraham (Genesis 12, 15, 17), David (2 Samuel 7), and the prophets (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel) concerning the land, the throne, and a restored Israel are irrevocable and non-redefinable. These promises have not been fulfilled spiritually in the Church, but await literal fulfilment.

The rebirth of the modern state of Israel in 1948 is seen not as a political accident but as a prophetic milestone. Dispensationalists point to passages like Ezekiel 36–37, Isaiah 66:8, and Zechariah 12–14 to argue that Israel’s return to the land is a foretaste and beginning of the final chapter in God’s redemptive history.

By affirming Israel’s ongoing covenantal role, dispensationalism combats antisemitism at its root. If the Jewish people are central to God’s plan, then persecuting them is an affront to God Himself.

Theological Consequences and Moral Responsibility

Ideas have consequences. When churches teach that the Jewish people are irrelevant to God’s plan, it inevitably influences the moral compass of their followers. This theology has real-world consequences, including:

  • The legitimisation of antisemitic ideologies.
  • Apathy toward Jewish suffering.
  • Opposition to the modern state of Israel.
  • The loss of biblical literacy regarding prophecy.

Dispensationalism, despite being mocked by so-called theological elites, offers a necessary corrective. It upholds a high view of Scripture, recognises God’s sovereign plan for Israel and fosters a theological posture that defends, rather than demonises, the Jewish people. As a result, it insists on the necessity and priority of proclaiming the gospel to them (Romans 1:16).

Reclaiming a Biblical Theology of Israel

Christians must return to a biblical theology that respects the literal promises of God. Romans 11 offers a rebuke to replacement theology:

“Has God cast away His people? Certainly not!… For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.” (Romans 11:1, 29)

Paul anticipates and rejects the idea that Israel has been permanently rejected. The olive tree metaphor reveals that Gentile believers are grafted in—but the natural branches (Israel) will be grafted in again. Replacement theology too often skips this chapter, or spiritualises it beyond recognition.

The Church must repent of its arrogance and recognise that Israel remains central to God’s redemptive plan. This plan is not based on their righteousness, but because of God’s unchanging covenantal promises. The prophet Ezekiel, who wrote much about Israel’s unrighteousness, affirmed:

“This is what the Lord God says: It is not for your sake that I will act, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you profaned among the nations where you went.” (Ezekiel 36:22)

Conclusion

The history of antisemitism is not merely a story of cultural prejudice – it is also a story of bad theology. Replacement theology, shaped by Augustine and exacerbated by Luther, laid the ideological groundwork for centuries of Jewish persecution. Its failure to recognise the ongoing role of Israel in God’s plan has had catastrophic consequences, including complicity in the Holocaust and ongoing antisemitic rhetoric today.

In contrast, dispensationalism stands as a prophetic voice, reminding the Church that God’s promises are irrevocable and that Israel’s modern restoration is not an accident but a divine appointment.

If antisemitism is indeed a “doctrine of devils,” then it has often been dressed in the robes of religious respectability. The Church must repent, realign its theology with Scripture, and embrace the whole counsel of God – including His plans for Israel. Anything less is not only theologically deficient but morally reprehensible.

HAMAS MANIPULATED GAZA DEATH DATA AND MEDIA COVERAGE

Posted on by

A groundbreaking report released last month by two Australian academics reveals widespread manipulation in the casualty data disseminated by Hamas during the ongoing conflict in Gaza.

Their findings challenge widely accepted narratives and raise serious concerns about the use of disinformation – and the role of the legacy media – in modern warfare.

The paper, titled Hamas Casualty Reports are a Tangle of Technical Problems, published by the Henry Jackson Society and authored by Professor Lewi Stone (RMIT University) and Professor Gregory Rose (University of Wollongong), is based on extensive analysis of casualty lists released by the Hamas-controlled Ministry of Health (MoH) in Gaza between October 2023 and March 2025.

Contrary to Hamas’ repeated claims that 70% of casualties were women and children – a figure amplified by sympathetic media and international bodies – the report concludes that this figure is inflated and contradicted by Hamas’ own raw data.

“Empirical evidence shows Israeli military tried to limit Gazan civilian harm,” the authors conclude, highlighting Israeli efforts to issue over 12 million flyers, 800,000 voice messages, and 100,000 phone calls warning civilians to evacuate conflict zones.

The report also reveals major flaws in the verification and categorisation of casualties:

  • 15,070 deaths were initially reported as “unidentified,” later “verified” through online submissions, often with dubious supporting evidence.
  • Some reported deaths were found to include people still living.
  • Natural deaths, deaths from disease, and even Hamas misfire casualties were included without distinction from Israeli-caused deaths.
  • Thousands of names were removed or altered in subsequent lists without explanation.

These manipulations allowed the Hamas Ministry of Health to present a distorted picture of Israeli conduct and to accuse Israel of genocide — allegations that gained traction internationally, despite lacking statistical or documentary support.

The report highlights how foreign academics and media relied heavily on data provided by Hamas, especially in the early stages of the war. Projections from institutions like the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine overestimated Gazan deaths by as much as 440%. One controversial paper in The Lancet predicted up to 186,000 deaths from indirect causes, while Hamas’ own data showed just 38 malnutrition-related deaths by September 2024.

United Nations agencies like UN-OCHA initially echoed Hamas’ 70% figure for women and children casualties, only to later revise these numbers downward by nearly half – an implicit admission of prior error.

Importantly, while the IDF reported having killed some 20,000 Hamas and allied fighters, the Gaza-controlled Ministry of Health (MoH) listed none of its casualties as combatants. The result is a public dataset that treats all deaths as civilians, regardless of combat status, cause of death, or source of injury.

The report’s authors stress that, despite their technical sophistication, Hamas’ casualty datasets were weaponised as tools of strategic disinformation. Leveraging the cooperation of a willing international media, they exploited public trust in data to misrepresent Israel’s military operations and sway global opinion.

Free Palestine’: All about Slaughtering Jews

It’s a demonic chorus. Hell’s equivalent of a church hymn.

But the incantation has nothing to do with freeing Palestinians, and everything to do with slaughtering Jews. It’s not sung as a chant aimed at ending suffering. It’s sung as a shared, communal fantasy about igniting a second Jewish holocaust.

The pro-Palestinian mob would chant “gas the Jews” – indeed, they did outside the Opera House on October 9, 2023 – except that such honesty would dismantle who they’re pretending to be. They pretend to be on the side of the downtrodden. They pretend to be on the side of righteousness. “Free Palestine” serves only as a fig leaf to (barely) cover their bloodlust.

WHAT IS BEHIND HAMAS AND THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD

Posted on by

Jonathan Cahn exposes the dark secret behind the movement to destroy Israel that goes back to Hasan al-Banna, the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood. He was enamoured with Hitler and his intent to destroy the Jewish people and went to Germany to work for Hitler.

For both Hitler and al-Banna, the first principle is not that all Jews are evil but that all evil is Jewish.  Therefore, the Jews must be hated and ultimately exterminated.  For the Jihadists of the Brotherhood, it is, indeed, a holy act pleasing to God and, therefore, a religious duty. 

Before proceeding to Hamas, a few words must be said about the Muslim Brotherhood from which Hamas stems and Haj Amin al-Husseini, the tie that binds Hitler to Hamas.

When King Farouk granted asylum to Nazi war criminal Haj Amin al-Husseini on 20 June 1946, al-Banna hailed the former Mufti of Jerusalem as a hero and a great Jihadist.  Al-Husseini also had meetings with Sayyid Qutb, the man who would become the Brotherhood’s most influential Jihadist ideologue.  In al-Husseini, then, we have an important link between the Nazis and Hamas.  

Following their own ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, Hamas understands itself to be waging the same war.  To Hamas, it is, indeed, a holy war waged against the satanic God of the Jews. 

OUR UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES ARE DOMINATED BY A CORROSIVE HATRED OF OUR OWN SOCIETY AND TRADITIONS

Posted on by

Why have universities, once the cradle of our civilisation, become such engines of hatred, obscurantism, foolishness and hostility? It is largely because their leaders and professors are godless intellectuals carrying out the commands of the Prince of this world, Satan, who is intent on ridding the world of all Jews, the one nation that God established for His purposes. Moreover, it is another of the Biblical end-times prophecies being fulfilled in our day. The world reports it differently. The following report is from The Australian Newspaper.

Niall Ferguson wrote recently that Western universities have become devoted to “the intellectual organisation of political hatreds”.

When you look at the disgusting, so-called anti-racism conference at the Queensland University of Technology, with all its fevered presentations and gross hostilities, it makes you ask a couple of questions. Why are taxpayers required to fund this rubbish? And why do universities regard their proper vocation now as, in part, the conscious fostering of vile and destructive hatreds?

The Albanese government should hold a royal commission into anti-Semitism at Australian universities. God knows we’ve had countless judicial inquiries into vastly less important subjects.

It would take some time. It wouldn’t solve the crisis of anti-Semitism, now or even in the future. But it would shed light on one of the great contemporary engines of the oldest and worst social hatred of them all.

Ferguson and others have pointed out that Western universities, in their acute emphasis on political hatreds, have become a kind of mirror of the Nazi attitudes to universities.

This is especially so in their anti-Semitism. One of the main breeding grounds of anti-Semitism today is left-wing ideology, especially the noxious mingling of the ideology of “settler colonists”, identity politics and intersectionality. The settler colonist slur can be used against any modern society, for almost every human being occupies a space on the planet where human beings of other races at one time or another predominated. Identity politics is really just contemporary Marxism, in which one class of people – generally people of colour in this ideology – are always victims, and another class of people, so-called whites, are always oppressors. These ideological categories have no regard for history or facts. It doesn’t matter that Jews have been continuously present in Israel for thousands of years. Nor does it matter that plenty of Jews, from Ethiopia or Morocco or Iraq or many other parts, are dark-skinned.

Ideology always has an Alice in Wonderland quality – white oppressor means just what I say it means. Whereas in Nazi universities Jews were irredeemably the villains and could never be “Aryan”, now in many Western universities Jews are again always the villains and can never be the victims. They are associated with “settler colonist” Israel and white privilege. So it doesn’t matter what they do or don’t do as individuals. When the left says someone should be opposed because they benefit from structural privilege, it’s morally and intellectually the equivalent of the Nazis saying a Jew can never be a good German.

The intensity of this perverse belief was a Nazi innovation. German Jews served with distinction and honour in the German army in World War I. The hatred of Jews evident on many campuses in the West today, whether lightly disguised as hatred of Zionism or simply seen in all its naked barbarism as in “F..k the Jews”, is an innovation of contemporary left-wing ideology.

Poster at the so-called anti-racism conference at the Queensland University of Technology, Australia.

Anti-Semitism is so monstrous today partly because it’s fed by three toxic, virulent sources. One is traditional, Nazi, racist anti-Semitism, which demonises Jews for being “other”, for being an alien presence in the West. Though this ideology is insane, and is not now held by any respectable person or group, it persists in the swamplands of conspiracy and personality disorder.

A vastly more powerful source of anti-Semitism is found in left-wing ideology. This inverts the Nazi hatred of Jews. In this ideology Israel is hated in part because it is seen as a central part of the West. It’s seen as a living specimen of Western colonialism.

The left in its attitude to Israel is something like the New York District Attorney in Tom Wolfe’s satirical novel, The Bonfire of the Vanities; too often having to prosecute black offenders he’s always on the lookout for “the great white defendant”.

The left can see in Israel a combination of everything it claims to hate – colonialism, militarism, capitalism, etc. In this demonology Jews and Israel are interchangeable. The presence of Jews in our society, especially on campus, gives the left some actual real human beings to hate. The presence of real, physical human beings to hate and abuse is always deeply satisfying for an extremist ideology.

The ideological left is not remotely concerned with human rights. It’s barely heard of the Democratic Republic of Congo, or Somalia, or North Korea. It holds no demonstrations for LGBTQ rights under Hamas.

The third great source of anti-Semitism is the distinctive Arab and Islamist strain of anti-Semitism. The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was notoriously Adolf Hitler’s greatest ally in the Middle East in World War II.

All three of these streams of hatred flow into the crisis of anti-Semitism Australia is experiencing today. At no point has the Albanese government ever understood or acknowledged the depth and importance of this crisis. It’s also politically paralysed in responding to the crisis in another way. Much of the left-wing ideology, which gives rise to distinctive left-wing anti-Semitism, is widespread in the left-activist circles that make up a serious portion of the ALP base, and which dominate the Greens’ base. Lots of these people of course would decry anti-Semitism in the abstract. But they sign up to all the points that lead to hatred of Jews – the wild demonising of Israel beyond anything that is reasonable, the grotesque ideological misinterpretation of Israel, the fixation on Jews in our society as somehow or other responsible for all the alleged sins of Israel, and so on. So to really tackle the crisis of anti-Semitism would involve trying to change the culture of the left.

Bob Hawke and Kim Beazley did this in terms of the culture of the Labor activist class in relation to the United States and the American alliance. Hawke and Beazley repudiated the anti-Americanism that had infected Labor from the disastrous split in the 1950s through the calamitous Whitlam years and was still dominant until Hawke took the leadership of the Labor Party.

Anthony Albanese and Labor’s current generation of leaders, though still living off the Hawke legacy, are not remotely capable of anything similar.

A final reflection. Anti-Semitism is a profound and terrible crisis in itself.

But the role of universities in generating new forms of this ancient hatred underscore the even wider crisis in our civilisation represented by the universities, which in many areas beyond technical subjects have come to be dominated by a corrosive and anti-intellectual hatred of our own society and its traditions. That’s intensely destructive.

DEMONIC DELUSION OF ANTISEMITISM: FOUR CRITICAL TESTS FOR EVERY CHRISTIAN

Posted on by

Calling every pastor and every follower of Jesus worldwide to ‘Be Like Bonhoeffer!’

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German pastor and theologian who possessed not only the moral clarity to distinguish good from evil but also the historical and doctrinal clarity that Jesus was a Jew.

Bonhoeffer understood that it was impossible to separate the person and work of Jesus — who he believed was the Messiah of Israel, and therefore the Savior and King of the world — from the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!

But his understanding was not merely intellectual; it was a deep, unwavering conviction that fueled extraordinary courage.

He boldly stood against Hitler and called the church to awaken to the evil of antisemitism, urging those who followed Jesus to stand with and protect the Jews, who were being systematically isolated and persecuted.

In 1938, Bonhoeffer wrote, “Only he who cries [out] for the Jews may sing Gregorian chant.”

In April 1943, Bonhoeffer was arrested by the Gestapo after attempting to save 14 Jews by helping them escape to Switzerland.

Following his arrest, it was revealed that Bonhoeffer had been involved in a plot to assassinate Hitler.

Yet Eberhard Bethge, Bonhoeffer’s close friend and biographer wrote, “There is no doubt that Bonhoeffer’s primary motivation for entering active political conspiracy was the treatment of the Jews by the Third Reich.”

On April 9, 1945, just days before the American liberation of the POW camp, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was hanged at Flossenbürg where it is believed 10,000 Jews lost their lives.

The last words of this brilliant, godly, and courageous man — who stood up to Hitler, gave his life to rescue Jews, and once said, “When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die” — were: “This is the end — for me, the beginning of life.”

A ‘Bonhoeffer Moment’

Today, we stand at a turning point in history. We are facing a “Bonhoeffer Moment” — why? Because we are witnessing the rise of antisemitism and anti-Zionism at levels not seen since the Holocaust.

As Christians, we cannot, NOT see what we are seeing. We must not make the same mistakes that so many made in the German church during Bonhoeffer’s time.

What is essential at this crucial moment is that every Christian pass four critical tests:

1. The moral test

Hitler believed in a superior race, while today the Iranian Islamic leadership believes in a superior faith and seeks to establish a new Islamic world order, with Israel standing on the front lines of this battle. Today, the “Free Palestine” campaign has become nothing less than the rallying cry of “Islamic Nazis” — those who seek to destroy Israel and spearhead an Islamic New World Order. Those who chant this slogan are deluded by evil; those who promote it are its puppets.

2. The historic test

The land of Israel is the ancestral home of the Jewish people! Zionism is the belief that Jews have the right to a national home in Israel. A Christian is a Bible believer who stands on the biblical promise that God gave the land of Israel to the Jewish people and in fulfillment of prophetic Scriptures, God is behind Israel’s regathering in the land after nearly 2,000 years of dispersion.

Anti-Zionism stands in opposition to the very purposes of God. Anti-Zionism is the promotion of the idea that the land of Israel is not the historic and ancestral home of the Jewish people. This lie is the fertilizer of the false narrative that Israel is “the oppressor” in “occupied Arab land,” feeding the delusion that murder and rape against Jews is a justified response.

3. The theological test

Christians are grafted into God’s unfolding plan through Israel and the Messiah of Israel. “… you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you” (Romans 11:17-18).

4. The faith test

Our faith should not only inform us of the truth but also transform us. As Scripture reminds us, “faith without works is dead.”

If Christians don’t pass these tests, how can we expect the world to?

To be like Bonhoeffer is to pray for and protect all Jews, to fight against the insanity and demonic delusion of antisemitism, anti-Zionism, radical Islamism, replacement theology, and other attacks on Israel and the Jewish people.

May there be an awakening throughout the Christian world — one where the darkness of antisemitism and anti-Zionism is confronted first by Christians, ensuring that our Jewish friends and the nation of Israel know more than ever that they are not alone. Now is the time!

Article by Greg Denham, Op-ed contributor, Christian Post, Saturday, November 23, 2024. Greg Denham is the Senior Pastor of Rise Church in San Marcos, CA. He is the founder of “The Context Movement” and spearheads yearly “Friends of Israel Weekends” to fight anti-Semitism and champion friendships between Christians and Jews.

PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS ESCALATES AS JESUS RETURN DRAWS NEAR

Posted on by

Hamas terror attacks on Israel have inflamed Islamic extremist sentiment against Christ followers, said an official with a Swiss-based aid agency.

“Since Oct. 7, 2023, the whole Middle East is on intense fire and might explode any time,” said the official, whose identity is withheld for security purposes. “It seems that all political, social, and human rights achievements in the direction of a possible reconciliation between major foes — Saudi-Iran, or the Israel-Arab world — are now very far away. This of course has direct implications for our persecuted brothers and sisters as they are the most vulnerable and often blamed as being enemies of [the] state.”

The historical suffering of Christians who have converted from Islam in the region has reached a new level, he said. “All accomplished liberal thinking and religious tolerance in the Middle East are now departing, leaving the battleground for fanatism and Islamic radicalization to take over,” the official said.

His agency recently provided aid to a leader of a group of converts from Islam in the Palestinian West Bank. The leader is from a prominent Muslim family, and his sister’s husband, a member of the extremist Salafi branch of Islam, recently discovered he had become a follower of Christ and reported him as an “unbeliever” to his relatives. The leader’s prominent Muslim father threw him and his family out of their house. “He then had to flee and hide with his wife and son in a secret place for his security as the whole situation around Oct. 7th got heated up, and people became more radical,” the official said. “With the funds we received, we helped him to rent a hide-out apartment, and provided some living expenses for his family.”

Tensions have long hit Egypt’s borders. Israel’s military campaign against Hamas has divided opinion among church members in Egypt who are also pining under the devaluation of their currency and rising prices. Atop these difficulties, persecution remains the main challenge for Muslim-background believers like Sara (name changed) — an educated person who loves reading and research. When she; began seeking answers about Islam from her husband and some Islamic experts, they couldn’t give her satisfying answers.

“It is considered blasphemy to ask certain questions, and so her husband and other people around her reacted alertly,” the aid agency official said. “However, Sara felt a strong urge to find the truth and continued asking questions.” She began reading Christian books until she concluded that she wanted to follow Christ, he said. “Her husband discovered a change in her and argued with her until he found out that she became a Christian,” he said. “Sara was pregnant at that time. Her husband beat her so badly that she had to be hospitalized and lost her baby.” When she was able to return home, her husband reported her to police. Sara was imprisoned on false charges.

“After some years she was released but was still punished with having to go to the police station every week, where she had to clean the toilets and sit there for hours,” the worker said. “Our local partner heard of her situation and helped her legally. He also helped Sara to find a safe place to stay and a new place to work.”

Persecuted Christians are receiving both aid and spiritual care to strengthen their faith in the face of suffering. In Africa, the Islamic extremist terrorism in Nigeria that has displaced both Muslims and Christians for more than a decade drove one woman’s family to a camp for the internally displaced, where she came to faith in Christ under the teaching of the Swiss agency’s aid partner. The suffering she endured in four years of living in and out of the camp had left her cynical and prone to lying and cheating, the official said. “There was no visible change in her behavior — it required a lot of patience, love and wisdom from our partner and her team, and it was a lot of work for her, but over time she grew out of her bad habits,” the worker said. “Through the teachings, the Bible study, the coaching and prayer, she experienced the love of God and discovered what it means to follow Jesus.” She opened her heart so the Lord could transform and heal her, Sara said. “God has given me the biggest gift of my life,” she told aid workers. “He removed me from darkness to light, from nobody to becoming somebody.”

In Laos, village authorities opposed to ten families leaving their ancestral religion for Christ recently drove them out of the community into the wilderness. They were left about 8 miles away, without homes, farmland, food, and schooling for their children. “We worked closely with the local church to help them to find land for these 10 families to build a simple house to live in, and our team helped them to build the well for them to have water to drink, and a tile roof for their house,” the aid official said. “We continue to work with the local church to have worship every Sunday in their house church, and we provide continuous support for their livelihood development.”

The increase in the level of antisemitism around the world since Hamas attacked Israel makes no earthly sense and proves Scripture’s revelation that it is spiritual warfare and that we are living in the last days before Jesus returns to restore righteousness and usher in His Millennial Kingdom.

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:9-14

THE MYSTERY OF THE JEWISH NATION

Posted on by

The Jewish people have always been a mystery to the world. No people have ever known so much rejection, antipathy, and hatred. Joined to one land as no other people have ever been so joined to a land—and yet separated from their land and landless as no other people have been so separated from a land or landless.

Even before they went into the promised land God revealed to them through Moses their entire history, they would be scattered throughout the Earth but in the latter days, they would return to the Lord.

“And the Lord will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the Lord will drive you. And there you will serve gods of wood and stone, the work of human hands, that neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul. When you are in tribulation, and all these things come upon you in the latter days, you will return to the Lord your God and obey his voice. For the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you, destroy you, or forget the covenant with your fathers that he swore to them.“ Deuteronomy 4:27-31

In fact, all of the O.T. prophets were given the end of the story for their nation, Israel, when their Messiah Jesus will rule all the world’s nations from a magnificent new Jerusalem for 1000 years. Check out: http://www.millennialkingdom.net

Throughout their history they have dwelt apart and separate from the nations as no people have ever been so separate—and yet so intertwined with the nations and critical to world history as no other people have been so intertwined and critical. No people have ever been so connected to their times and so transcended the parameters of time and space to become near timeless and universal.

They have been the weakest of nations and yet the strongest—the most vulnerable of peoples and most often in danger of extermination; and yet the most enduring of peoples. No people, while on earth, have ever so known the presence of God and the glories of heaven and yet no other people have ever so known the depths of hell. They are an enigma, an anomaly, a paradox, a mystery people.

The Scriptures record that God called them into existence. They were not chosen for any special attribute they possessed.

“Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession among all peoples, for all the earth is mine; and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ Exodus 19:5-6

Israel was to be a vessel of God, a central conduit and instrument for the fulfillment of His plans and purposes for the world. According to the Scriptures, Israel stands at the centre of God’s purposes—not only in past and ancient times but in all times. They occupy the centre point of history and prophecy. And beyond all this is something even more foundational. In the Book of Isaiah, God says to the people of Israel, “You are My witnesses“. And thus beyond any work or accomplishment of the Jewish people is something still more critical and transcendent—their existence. The very existence of the Jewish people is a witness testifying to the existence of God.

There is a spiritual entity (The Dragon) that wars against the purposes and works of God and does everything in its power to thwart, attack, and destroy them. The war against Jewish existence is unlike any other. It knows no bounds of space or time. It is not rational or natural. It happens no matter what, no matter when, no matter who, and no matter where. It is supernatural and irrational, the dark and virulent offshoot of the mystery of evil. It is the work of a fallen, twisted, inverted spiritual and supernatural being. The truth is, the first of all anti-Semites was an angel. All who hate the Jewish people, all the anti-Semites of every place and time he is their father, and they, his children. The words they speak against the children of Israel are his words. The acts they commit against them are his acts. And so if we look through the ages at the attacks launched and battles waged against the Jewish people, we would expect to find there his footprints. And his footprints are exactly what we find.

Notice, that Satan is called the accuser: “for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God.” Revelation 12:10. Therefore, we would expect the Jewish people to become the most slandered people in human history, the eternal focal point of accusation, allegation, vilification, and demonization. And so they have been and still are. Beyond that Satan is a liar, we would therefore expect the Jewish people to become the focal point not only of accusation but of false accusations, lies, and fabrications.

In the modern world, they are accused of masterminding virtually every major evil and conspiracy for the purpose of world domination. It matters not how groundless or far-fetched the accusations are. Their origins, as we have seen, are not rational. But they are consistent with the one, Satan, in whom there is no truth.

From Biblical prophecy, we know that Satan’s time of ruling planet Earth is coming to an end. He will have ruled for 6,000 years and then we will have Jesus Christ rule for 1,000 years to fulfill God’s promise to Abraham that the nation He established through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob will rule the nations of Earth.

OCTOBER 7TH WAS PURE EVIL

Posted on by

On October 7, 2023 the world woke up to the horrific news of the deadliest day for Jewish people since the Holocaust. The Hamas terrorist attack on Israel unleashed a wave of global antisemitism. This One Free World International film captures the stories and truth of what took place in Israel on October 7 and exposes the truth of the enduring challenge we must overcome to defeat the hate-filled ideology that is fuelling global antisemitism and dividing our society. This is an exclusive October 7 anniversary release. The full version of Dying To Live will be released late-2024.

Thank goodness the Hamas terrorists filmed their own actions live so people back in Gaza could see what they were doing. Only one phrase was coming out of their mouths “Allahu Akbar”. They were doing this in the name of their God. No one can deny it happened as the perpetrators filmed their own depraved actions.

Biblical end-times prophecies reveal that Satan’s end-times strategy is all about eliminating the Jews and Christians so we should not be surprised by what is unfolding. In fact, this is just the beginning of “birth pangs”

“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Matthew 24:7-13

JONATHAN CAHN’S FIRST BOOK ON END TIMES PROPHECY

Posted on by

This video is the best conversation I’ve heard about Jonathan Cahn’s new book The Dragon’s Prophecy: Israel, the Dark Resurrection and the End of Days! The Bible is unfolding in exact alignment with end-times prophecies. Thank God for using Rabbi Cahn to inform the world. Even the recent invasion by Hamas is part of the Biblical end-times prophecies. We all must remember that God is in control. This spiritual war is unfolding exactly as prophesied. The Bible even names the nations that war against Israel.

Hamas invaded and killed over 2000 Israelis including women, babies, and children, and yet it has resulted in antisemitism the world over. This is unfathomable and for me demonstrates it has to be spiritually motivated. Fortunately, Jesus told us that persecution of Christians will also intensify in the last days: tribulation becomes great tribulation before Jesus returns to rapture the Saints. He also said:

“Let not your hearts be troubled: Believe in God, believe also in me… I go to prepare a place for you and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.” John 14:2-3

Biblical prophecy reveals Jesus will rapture believers to heaven just before God pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet (Revelation 8) and Bowl (Revelation 16) judgements. You need to warn your unbelieving family and friends that they need to repent and get right with God otherwise they will face God’s wrath. Take them to Revelation 8 and 16.
