JERUSALEM, Feb. 27 (UPI) -- Israeli police in riot gear stormed the square outside Jerusalem's al-Aqsa mosque, one of Islam's holiest sites, to disperse stone throwers.

The operation followed Palestinians stoning Jewish worshippers at Judaism's Western Wall, which is below the mosque, Ha'aretz reported.

"It would seem that most journalists are unbelievers as they consistently fail to mention the significance of the Temple Mount to Christians."

How can I put this gently? If the truth be known, NONE, other than a cause for strife, and when Christians glorify it, the hindering of the gospel, and the furthering of the goals of the 'New' World Order.

Wondering if Abe Foxman is too busy to notice...

Have never heard the fat jerk decry Muslims even once. What a phony.

• ADL Outraged at Church Sign Blaming Jews for Death of Jesus

I bet that Foxman had a hand in putting up that sign, once his predictions of American pogroms fell flat. Next he'll have some ADL commies dressed as skinheads accosting Lubovitchers in Brooklyn yelling "Christ-killers". Whatever it takes to keep up appearances for the Jewish Jesse Jackson. He is a JINO fraud. No real Jews take him seriously.

I have been appalled by the things the Muslims have been doing there, attacking Jews and obviously trying to eliminate Christians from the equation altogether.

Arafat doesn't need to eliminate Christians. He has the Arab "Christian" clergy in his back pocket. When jihad comes, they will toss off their priestly robes and take up the sword.

Thanks! I started this morning to add some things. I've shortened it considerably, believe it or not.

Rev 21:5 And he that sat upon the throne said, BEHOLD, I MAKE ALL THINGS NEW. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Rev/21/5.html :

Exd 24:8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled [it] on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words. http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Exd/24/8.html

The New Covenant/THE NEW WORLD ORDER as established by the blood of The Lamb, Jesus Christ:

The Promise:

Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/Jer/Jer031.html#31
http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Jer/31/31.html

Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day [that] I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Jer/31/32.html

Jer 31:33 But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

The Fulfillment:

Hbr 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:

Hbr 8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

Hbr 8:10 For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

Hbr 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

Hbr 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Hbr/8/12.html

Hbr 8:13 In that he saith, A new [covenant], he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old [is] ready to vanish away. http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Hbr/8/13.html


Hbr 12:24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than [that of] Abel. http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/Hbr/Hbr012.html#24 http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Hbr/12/24.html

http://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/g/o/godsolov.htm

1Ti 1:4 Neither give heed to fables and ENDLESS GENEALOGIES, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: [so do]. http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/1Ti/1Ti001.html#4

Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

Gal 3:29 And if ye [be] Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Gal/3/29.html

Jesus Is God http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/pentecostal/One-Ch4.htm

I'm feeling a little discouraged tonight...I just pray for the day that all will come to know Him.

And my reaction to the story of Geffen and Katzenberg swearing that they'll never work with Mel Gibson again? Well, I'll be sure to see any new movies that Mel does, and avoid anything that they do.

Last I heard, they're demanding a retraction claiming they never said this.

I saw the movie, and I'm not inclined in the least to attack anyone, or blame any group for Jesus' death. I think the fact that the hands nailing Jesus to the cross in the movie were those of Mel Gibson says much of his personal views as well.

Anywhere their Founding Child-Molester reputedly took a dump is an automatic "holy site" to the Moos. So, pretty much anywhere is fair game for these cockroaches.

Although Muhammad never got near Jerusalem. The claims are a perversion of a tradition that refers to the "farthest mosque", so a few hundred years later they build a mosque in Jerusalem and name it the "Farthest Mosque" and declare it holy.

Destruction of Temple Mount antiquities

there used to be a lot about this on the BAR website, before Shanks heard about the James Ossuary.

Meanwhile, a suicide bomber riding a bicycle blew himself up near the greenhouse area of Kfar Daron in the center of the Gaza Strip. The suicide bomber died from the explosion, but no one else was hurt

Bad martyr! No virgins!

I'm not a believer, not even of prophecy in general, but the one chapter book of Obadiah appears to apply directly to current events in the Middle East:
Obadiah
1:1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.
1:2 Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.
1:3 The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
1:4 Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD.
1:5 If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? if the grapegatherers came to thee, would they not leave some grapes?
1:6 How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!
1:7 All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; that they eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none understanding in him.
1:8 Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, even destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
1:9 And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
1:10 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
1:11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.
1:12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.
1:13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity;
1:14 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress.
1:15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.
1:16 For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.
1:17 But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
1:18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.
1:19 And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
1:20 And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the south.
1:21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD's.

Sometimes I wonder if that Al Aqsa Mosque isn't the "Abomination of Desolation" mentioned in Daniel 9:27, and again in Mark 13:14?

Doesn't it stand right on top of where the "Holy of Holys" Chamber used to be inside the old Temple?

Isn't the "Rock" it is erected over supposed to be the place where Abraham offered up his Son Issac in sacrifice - or was about to until the Angel intervened and substituted the goat?

What are the Muzlims looking for underneath all of that rubble, do you suppose?

I wonder if they want to find the Ark of the Covenant, so that they can desicrate that, too?

Hopefully, rumors I've heard are true in that it has been found some time ago and is in the keeping of those who were originally intended to have it.

If not, then perhaps we can hope that in the event it ever does fall into the hands of Irael's enemies the same thing will happen as the last time.
As I recall from the Biblical Account, all sorts of weird and terrible things started happening to the Captors until they carefully returned the Arc to Israel in reverent terror.

It seems that when Israel turns from the G-d of their Fathers and their Covenental relationship with Him, they become venerable to military and political defeat... but their enemies usually learn in the long run - and the hard way - that even if they might prevail over an apostate Israel, it is best not to mess with their G-d.

Wouldn't it be interesting if the Morning after the Palis announce that they have the Arc (or some other significant Jewish artifact) which they will destroy unless Israel makes some radical concession, several of their Mosques are found to have fallen in on themselves overnight and about 12,000 of their population wake up dead, and most of the rest afflicted with some mysterious, lethal plague?

D'ya think they'd get the message?

Sure; that sounds like an insane fantasy - but that sort of thing has happened before, hasn't it (if the Law and the Prophets are to be believed, anyway)?

And on more than one occasion, as I recall.

Now I'm no Prophet to be sure; but in simply juxtapsosing Scripture over current events in the MiddleEast, I do get a strong sense of imminence.

And these little "cracks" that seem to be appearing in the Al Aqsa and offices of Israels Magistrates, as well as the tumbling down of these ancient walls come as no surprise to me, frankly.

These events are quite consistant with a developing pattern, and which I believe are communicating a dire Spiritual and Prophetic warning to Israel - both the geopolitical Israel as well as the "Global Israel".

Our common Creator may well be giving his beloved People Israel a gentle tap on the shoulder, here; a "wake-up call", if you will.

And it might behoove the World - and not just Israel - to take serious heed.

The Leadership of Israel will do, no doubt, as they deem best for the interests of the People and their Nation.

But I sort of hope that they keep the Watchmen on what's left of the City Walls focused well to the North, and the People might consider keeping their knapsacks packed and weapons at the ready.

For there may well be a mighty big rumble comin' on down over there, folks - and it could be any day now.

These certainly are interesting times to live in, aren't they?

... And they might be about to get a whole lot interestinger.

What angers me is the typical, leftist mantra of "if just one person misunderstands the meaning, then it must not be allowed"... Typical... Political correctness gone wild.

I have no doubt that there will be some people who claim the movie proves their preconceived notions that the Jews killed Jesus... Heck, I was called a "Jesus Killer," but I can't really blame Mel, since it happened about 35 years ago...

Given this sort of "reasoning" (not a good term for what they do, since there's no "reason" in their minds at all), then all matches, or fire, for that matter, should be outlawed, since people might get burned. Or knives... Or guns (oops! They're going after than one!).
