The Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement Encircled the Temple Mount in Jerusalem at Pesach 5765 (2005) Blowing Trumpets Like Joshua in Jericho. An Exciting Pilgrimage to the Temple Mount With the Omer Offering
In the year 2489 after the creation of the Universe, 40 years after the exodus of the Children of Israel from Egypt, and after they had crossed the Jordan River in a miraculous way, on the 14th Nissan they made the Pesach Sacrifice and celebrated Pesach and ate matzah as G–d had commanded them as a memorial of the exodus. At the same time, the manna that G–d had fed them in the wilderness all the way from Egypt ceased and they ate only from the produce of the Promised Land.
Immediately after the Pesach festival Joshua and the children of Israel faced their first challenge, the liberation of the first city on the west side of the Jordan. The G–d of Israel appeared to Joshua and told him to circle the city with his army once each day for 6 days and 7 priests were to blow on shofars. On the 7th day, the wall would fall and Jericho would be captured. The Ark of the Covenant was carried behind the priests blowing the shofars. On the 7th day, as the G–d of Israel promised, the walls fell and Jericho was captured.
This godly event took place a few thousand years ago. On the 3rd day of Pesach this year, 17 Nissan 5765, Tuesday 26th April 2005, at 9;30 AM, The Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement had the same feeling like Joshua and the Children of Israel telling them to start to surround the walls of G–d’s holy mountain, to blow with trumpets and that G–d would walk with them until the walls of hatred which surround the Temple Mount would fall. They felt that they were to do it each time they came to His holy mountain. It was the first time that they circled the walls. The trumpets blew all over and especially in front of the gates of the Temple Mount. We felt the presence of the G–d of Israel among us. When we stood in front of the gate of the Temple Mount which is today called the Cotton Gate and which is the closest gate to the site of the Holy of Holies and underneath which to this day is located the Ark of the Covenant waiting for the Children of Israel, we felt its presence amongst us as in the time of Joshua. On the Day of Jerusalem which will be on the 28th Iyar, 6th June, the Temple Mount Faithful Movement will again circle the gates and walls of the Temple Mount blowing trumpets and then again and again on other occasions until the walls of the enemy fall and the Temple Mount is open to the Children of Israel to be purified and the Temple rebuilt. This is a godly redemptional event which is going to be the climax of the redemptional process which Israel is experiencing at this time.
This exciting event started a day earlier when the Faithful cut the omer from the fields of Israel exactly as our forefathers did to be brought as a love offering to our Beloved G–d of Israel. The last winter was blessed with much rain and the blessings of G–d on Israel and the harvest was very good with well-developed kernels. We also collected earth from the Gaza Strip and northern Samaria, the 2 holy areas of the land fo Israel that Ariel Sharon is preparing to “disengage” from as a great sin and evil in the eyes of the G–d of Israel Who gave the land to Israel alone in an eternal covenant and commanded them not to give it to anyone, especially not to the cruel enemies of Israel, the so-called “Palestinians”.
On the 3rd day of Pesach, the Faithful, carrying with them the omer and the symbolic earth from Gaza and northern Samaria, made a pilgrimage and marched to the Temple Mount together with a model of the Temple. It was the morning of the priestly blessings when hundreds of priests blessed thousands of Israelis and, through them all the people of Israel, in front of the Western Wall of the Temple Mount renewing a Biblical tradition when the priests blessed the people of Israel , not outside the Temple Mount, but in side the Temple on the Temple Mount. It was no accident that we chose this day of the priestly blessing to make our pilgrimage to the Temple Mount. It is one of the most exciting events of the festival of Pesach. At the same time it was so sad to see the priests making the blessing outside the Temple Mount instead of on the Temple Mount as G–d expects of them.
Many people joined the Faithful and stood excitedly around the omer and the model fo the Temple. The omer was not seen in this holy place for almost 2000 years since the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE. Here and now this event again became a part of the reality of Israel. They could at least see the model of the Temple which awakened them to pray and act for the rebuilding of the Temple itself as a reality in our lifetime.
The media from Israel and all the world covered the event and we hope that they shared it with everyone in the world as was done in Israel.
The gates of the Temple Mount were still open to Israelis in the early morning but were closed at 9:00 AM for security reasons as the authorities of Israel stated. We could only march to the western gate of the Temple Mount together with the omer and the model of the Temple. Despite the fact that the gate was closed we felt that we did well in the eyes of G–d and had fulfilled His commandment to our forefathers and to our generation and as an opening for when the omer will soon be again carried to the rebuilt Temple which, no doubt, will be reconstructed in our lifetime as G–d expects of us to do. No gate can stop the march of the G–d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob back to His holy mountain and to His rebuilt house. The earth that we carried with us from Gaza and Samaria was spread on the holy mountain symbolising the undivided unity of all the parts of the land around the Temple Mount and that the disengagement of these holy parts of the land of Israel will never happen. The G–d of Israel will not allow it.
The Hallel Psalms of the Pesach festival were again said and heard on the holy mountain of G–d as in the time of our forefathers. While the trumpets were blown again all the Faithful again swore faithfulness to the G–d of Israel, His holy mountain, Jerusalem and the holy land of Israel.
“If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember you, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I do not set Jerusalem above my highest joy.” (Psalm 137:5,6)
The sound of the trumpets and the Faithful swearing covered the Temple Mount and was heard by the thousands who came for the priestly blessing and they joined it with great excitement.
In his speech, Gershon Salomon called on the people of Israel to be faithful to the G–d of Israel and His end-time redemptional expectation of the people of Israel. He called on them to purify the holy mountain of G–d as our forefathers did in similar critical times and to immediately rebuild the Temple and not to fear anyone of their enemies or the powers in the world but to trust only the Almighty G–d of Israel. Gershon told them: “You are standing on the most holy place in the world, on the mountain of the G–d of Israel and the Universe, on the most holy place where Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, King David, the prophets and the great kings of Israel stood before the G–d of Israel and shared with Him their love, their offerings, their prayers and their eternal faithfulness to Him. You are privileged to stand and walk on the ground where these great people of G–d stood and walked. But at the same time you have a great responsibility to continue in their way and with what they did in their times. More than at any time in the past the G–d of Israel expects you to trust Him, to stand strongly with Him and to fulfil with love His Word and commandments with complete faithfulness. Like Joshua and Caleb, you should show Him that you do not fear anyone in the world who tries to stop what G–d is doing with Israel at this exciting and critical time. Trust in G–d, build His house, keep the land that He gave you and He will be with you. Israel, together with G–d, is the majority and all the rest is a minority.”
The word of the Almighty G–d of Israel to Joshua and the people of Israel was again heard so strongly and apposite coming from the Holy of Holies of the mountain of the G–d of Israel. His call and promises again became a reality.
“Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that I have given to you, as I said to Moses. From the wilderness and this Lebanon to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border. No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not fail you, nor forsake you. Be strong and courageous; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land, which I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the Torah, which Moses my servant commanded you; turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Torah shall not depart from your mouth; but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written on it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous; be not afraid, nor be dismayed; for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:3-9)
The main goal of Israel at this godly time is to rebuild the Temple so that G–d can dwell in the midst of His people, Israel, and all the world. (Exodus 25:8) The prophetic call of G–d that He shared thousands of years with Isaiah and Micah is the call to our generation.
“And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths; for Torah shall go forth from Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. And he shall judge between many peoples, and shall decide concerning far away strong nations; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, nor shall they learn war any more. But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid; for the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken it.” (Micah 4:2-4)
The Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement will continue even more intensively and will not rest to make this vision and expectation of G–d of our generation a reality in our lifetime as He decided.
Everyone in Israel and all over the world is called on to be a part of this godly campaign and to have the privilege of being together with those Faithful who decided to answer this call of G–d and make it a reality which will change the life of mankind and base them on G–d, His values and morals, which our world today needs so much.
In the G–d of Israel we trust.

Very interesting - definite ping!

If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. 43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. 48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? 49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me. 50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. 51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. 52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. 53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? 54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God: 55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying. 56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. 57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. 59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
Certain Jews wanted to kill Jesus because "I am" is a name of God. In effect Jesus was declaring His equality with Father God. He is still hated today for the same reason.
Actually, He was killed for opposing the religious leaders of His day. He was giving away that which they sold for a profit.
BTTT!!!!!!!!
and this has WHAT to do with this story?
I've read quite a bit about the Temple Mount Faithful, and I don't believe that they themselves are planning to do anything to the mosque. I was under the impression that they believed G-d Himself would take appropriate action. ;-)
Neat-o! 
Actually, they believe He is already taking action! Go to Temple Mount Faithful and read about the "cracks" and "bulges" on the wall... They believe the Lord is ready to act, since His people won't, and they are getting ready for the day it happens.
The point is that as in the days of Jesus, there are Jews today who are extremely zealous for the things of God but they remain blind to the one thing that God desires.
