Jerry Golden "REPORT" from Israel: The Time Is Very Close!

The Time is Very Close!

  The Sovereign State of Israel says they will not negotiate with this devil Yasser Arafat. Our Prime Minister has declared him irreverent. This Jew killing monster has been proven time and time again to be not only an enemy to the Jews and the State of Israel but to the entire civilized world. He has been run out of the surrounding Arab Nations and forced into exile by Lebanon, and Jordan in the recent past, and Egypt will not allow these people who call themselves Palestinians to even come there. Yet Colin Powell comes to Israel as our guest and then goes against the policy of Israel and he and Shimon Peres tries once again to save this devil so he can one day to do us more harm.

In the Gulf War Yasser Arafat joined Saddam Hussein in murdering other Arabs, and today he has purchased one of Saddam Hussein's mansions as a place to go into exile when the time comes. And today the PLO Charter still calls for the destruction of the State of Israel, which is never brought up in the UN. When over two thirds of all the resolutions passed in the UN are against Israel.

Before 1917 when the British took control of Jerusalem from the Turks there was not only no such people as Palestinians there were very few Arabs on this land called Israel today. In fact, they didn't start calling themselves Palestinians until after the 6 Day War in 1967. This land was named Palestine by the Romans who did it as an insult to the Jews and in an attempt to strip it of any Jewish Identity. But the truth still remains that for more than 3,000 years, Jerusalem has been the capitol of the Jewish people. In fact, no other people on earth have ever called it their capitol but the Jewish people. King David, not Mohammed founded the city of Jerusalem, Jews always pray facing Jerusalem, and Moslems pray facing Mecca, while turning their backs to Jerusalem. In the Bible the name Jerusalem is mentioned over 700 times, and never mentioned once in the Koran.

As Bible Believing, God fearing people, who read the Word of God, we know that in the end times Jerusalem will be a cup of trembling. Zechariah 12:2. We also know that God will gather "ALL" nations against Jerusalem to battle, we also read in Zechariah 14:2b and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. It is now becoming obvious that the half of the city mentioned here is East Jerusalem, or the Old City. But for those who think they will escape the wrath of God because they are not in Jerusalem should read Zechariah 12:9-10: And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. And I will pour upon the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced...

We are about to see the great and mighty hand of God as it not only comes down and purges and makes pure His people Israel, but we will see His judgment of all the nations that come against His people. But the part that interests me the most is "and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced" for I believe this is why I am here as are many others. God has and is placing certain Jewish Believers throughout this land for a revival among the Jewish people, and He (God) is choosing those to be a blessing to Israel throughout His Kingdom. (Gen. 12:3)  No doubt there will be hell to pay before it happens, but we will be left standing and when the smoke clears God's Word will go forth from Jerusalem, and they (my precious Jewish people) will look upon Him whom we have pierced. Glory to God, I just have to stop and shout.

So even with the evil acts of many men, I can see in this visit of Colin Powell, and the double standards of President Bush in regards to Israel and Terrorism the Hand of God. I know it is the God I serve who is in control. But make no mistake about it, Bush and Powell will bring judgment down on the heads of those who live in the United States, and it shall rain on the just and the unjust alike.

The Devil has unleashed his religions weapon "Islam" on the world and it is now working full force on a global basis. Yasser Arafat is but one of his tools to destroy the "people of the Book" Jews and Christians around the world. Yasser Arafat is filled with the spirit of anti-Christ and he is preparing the way for the one that will be called the Anti-Christ. Time is running very short for us to be about the Father's business, to put aside all our foolishness and to give all that we are and have acquired to serve and too bless God.

I woke this morning an hour early at 4:00 o'clock to read the Word and pray, as we have a big day ahead of us, and will be traveling here in Israel. I am blessed to have [my son] Joel with me today, if you should get this in time, we would appreciate your prayers. Also for this car to keep running until we are able to purchase one more reliable.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for our son Joel, for this Ministry and your part in it.  [Emphasis Added]

Shalom,

The probability of the importance of what you "doubt" is near zero with me. It may even be zero. Nevertheless, please answer the question. Why wasn't Ezekiel 37 addressed if what you posted is the absolute truth?

[blackie]

"The original plan was to have Bush sworn in on the Masonic Bible. Imagine what that means!"

It's the King James version, what's wrong with that sheepie??

[PeaceBeWithYou]

Ezekiel was written while Israel was under Babylonian captivity (612-539BC), chapter 37 was written after the fall of Jerusalem (Aug of 586BC).

The restoration that Ezekiel is fortelling has already occured before the first coming. That second temple was destroyed utterly in 70AD, 1.1 million jews perished, and most the rest were sold into slavery for a pittance, Israel was once again grafted out and her covenant with God ended.

Under the new covenant salvation is still available to all, but is no longer granted to any one nation, but to all of every nation.

[PeaceBeWithYou]

Ooops, posted before my edit was complete.

Under the new covenant salvation is now available to all, and is no longer granted to just one nation, but to all of every nation.

[the-ironically-named-proverbs2]

"I should have said no more involved in God's plans for the future than England, France, Germany: 1. The present-day nation of Israel is no more involved in God's plans for the future than is France, England, Germany, the United States, etc. The teaching of the New Testament is very clear - Jesus fulfilled everything pertaining to Israel and formed the New Israel, His church"

I'm not picking on you PG but this is something that I've been studying. I hope that this is not some tired, old debate (I'm not much for scholarly writings so I wouldn't know).

Hosea 1:2-11
2 The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the LORD.
3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son.
4 And the LORD said unto him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
5 And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.
6 And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Loruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.
7 But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah, and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.
8 Now when she had weaned Loruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son.
9 Then said God, Call his name Loammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.
10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.
11 Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.

Hosea prophesied the destruction of the northern kingdom of Israel- the 'house of Israel'. The daughters name was Loruhamah:

3819  Lo' Ruchamah (lo roo-khaw-maw'); from 3808 and 7355; not pitied; Louchamah, the symbol. name of a daughter of Hosea:

Hosea's second son was named Loammi:

3818  Lo' `Ammiy (lo am-mee'); from 3808 and 5971 with pronominal suffix; not my people; Lo-Ammi, the symbolic name of a son of Hosea:

This prophecy specifically concerns the house of Israel (the northern kingdom) - not the house of Judah. Verse 7 makes this very clear- " I will have mercy upon the house of Judah". Judah has no part in this until verse 11: "Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head"  The house of Israel has not been regathered. The house of Judah and the house of Israel do not have one head. This one head will be Jesus Christ. These 2 houses are still separate today. There are countless references to this future time in scripture. Following are just a few- go read them in context if you think I'm wrong.

Jer 3:17-18
17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart.
18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.

Ezek 37:16-22
16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:
17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?
19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.
21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

Isa 11:10-13
10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
13 The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
 
I had to restrain myself from listing more. To get back to my original point from Hosea, who do you think Paul is talking about here?:

Rom 9:21-26
21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.

Paul quotes the verses from Hosea. "Her beloved"- a direct reference to Hosea's daughter. But this passage from Romans is speaking of gentiles, isn't it? "Not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles"- why would Paul choose a passage that specifically refers to the house of Israel? In this context?

Rom 11:25-26
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

Who is really blind? Let this sink in:

Jer 23:5-8
5 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, The LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
8 But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.

Praise God

>G-d has an everlasting covenant with the Jews

Would you please quote the Bible verse(s) which establish an EXCLUSIVE everlasting covenant with the Jews?

[LostTribe]

> King David ... founded the city of Jerusalem,

Yes, but David was not a Jew. This may help:

Others:  David, Solomon and Sampson were not Jews, among many others...

No Israelites were called "Jews" until well after the collapse of the original Davidic Kingdom of Israel and formation of the Northern and Southern Kingdoms in about 922 BC. Many scholars place the earliest date of actual word usage ~500 BC, following the return of the Southern Kingdom from Bablyon. Those ~50,000 Jews were Israelites, but only a tiny number of the Millions of Israelites were called Jews. While the numbers are relatively small, the distinction is a major one.

[galt-jw]

sounds good to me.

[Prodigal Daughter]

King David was from the Tribe of Judah. We get the word "Jew" from Judah.

[LostTribe]

>King David was from the Tribe of Judah.

Right.

> We get the word "Jew" from Judah.

Only in the sense that the word "Jew" eventually came from the OFFSPRING of the TRIBEs of Judah and Benjamin and Levi which formed the Southern Kingdom, but over a Thousand Years after Judah himself died. See my Profile for more...

[LostTribe]

>King David was from the Tribe of Judah.

But David was not a Jew. "Jews" didn't appear until almost 500 years after Davids death, when they returned from Babylon. Davids Kingdom of Israel contained all 12 tribes, including the Tribe of Judah, which was not "Jewish".

[Prodigal Daughter]

I think you mean "PD" when you say "PG?"

Please note that I may have confused everybody by posting the paragraph below and not identifying it as part of the article PI-Matchett posted.

I lifted this paragraph: 1. The present-day nation of Israel is no more involved in God's plans for the future than is France, England, Germany, the United States, etc. The teaching of the New Testament is very clear - Jesus fulfilled everything pertaining to Israel and formed the New Israel, His church"

from PI-Matchett's article, which I do not agree with. I was reposting it to him as a question to him.

The Kingdom of Judah are the Tribes of Judah and Benjamin. The Kingdom of Israel are the remaining ten tribes. Some of the Kingdom of Israel settled in Judah after the destruction of the northern kingdom. Gentiles are neither of the two, (i.e., not descendants of any of the twelve tribes).

[takenoprisoner]

How bout King Solomon? Was he a Jew?

[Prodigal Daughter]

Right, but just like an "American" is understood to mean a citizen of the United States and NOT any citizen of North and South America, the word "Jew" is the English word we use to describe those from the Kingdom of Judah.

[takenoprisoner]

Right, but just like an "American" is understood to mean a citizen of the United States and NOT any citizen of North and South America, the word "Jew" is the English word we use to describe those from the Kingdom of Judah.

And did not King Solomon build a temple for G-d?

[LostTribe]

>How bout King Solomon? Was he a Jew?

No, Solomon was not a Jew. But not long after his reign, the Kingdom of Israel collapsed into the Northern and Southern Kingdoms. The name Kingdom of Israel went with the 10 tribes in the North. The south was made up of Judah, parts of Levi and Benjamin and was called The Kingdom of Judah.

It was this Southern Kingdom which was taken into the Babylonian captivity about 400 years later. Those 50,000 who returned from Babylon to Jerusalem were called "Jews". (See my Profile for closer dates.)

[Thinkin' Gal]

The house of Israel has not been regathered.

Sure it has. There are two nations formed by a gathering out of the nations. Both are front and center on the world stage. The state of Israel, and the one called in Hebrew, the "lands of the covenant".

[LostTribe]

>the word "Jew" is the English word we use to describe those from the Kingdom of Judah.

Sure, and I don't have any probem with that, as long as we all know it is not historically correct.

The Vikings (probably) discovered America a thousand years ago. That doesn't mean that Minnesota football team cannot call itself Vikings. But that also does NOT mean those football players are REAL Vikings, even though some of their ancestors may have been real Vikings.

[ladyinred]

The teaching of the New Testament is very clear - Jesus fulfilled everything pertaining to Israel and formed the New Israel, His church 131 posted on 4/18/02 8:40 AM Pacific by Prodigal Daughter

You know, I just don't see that in the NT. I have read and read and read the Bible for most of my life, and I have never noticed anything that says that. Perhaps I just don't know exactly what you mean though.
I agree that Jesus fullfilled the law and the Prophets, but I don't believe that God will not honor his promise to Israel from the OT.
Is this the teaching of New Testament Churches or something? I am not being ugly here, I seriously want to understand what you mean.
