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,

No, I didn't say that at all. Please review my Profile and the comments in this thread again. Thanks.
I guess that's why they have distinctions such as Futurist, Historist, Idealist, Preterist, etc. No matter how much we discuss it, the differing views don't allow convergance. But I can see the points made in relation to that view, and hopefully you can see mine.
Once upon a time I believed as you do, then after much study of history and the bible (which is an inspired, historical book), I woke up and shucked the Futurist view as incorrect, and incoherent with history and the bible.
The name House of Israel was assigned to the Northern Kingdom as part of their Eternal Heritage, and it was never Jewish. Therefore, this is NOT a command to go first to Jews.
Correct, and lets not forget this happened before AD 70 (obviously), so it cannot be explained that this was referring to the Jewish diaspora which happened after this date.
Theologically irrelevant? Nope.
O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in me is thine help.Hosea 13:9
For Israel hath not been forsaken, nor Judah of his God, of the LORD of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel. Jer 51:5
Tribe of Judah, which was not "Jewish",
also your number 159, are you equating those who identify themselves as Jews with those Minnesota Vikings?. In other words, it sounds like you are saying that Sephardic Jews and Ashkenazi Jews are not descended from the Tribes of Judah and Benjamin.
I too am having a little difficulty with the analogy.
The people we today call "Jews" are descended not only from the tribe of Judah of course, despite the etymology of the word. It includes all persons practicing, or descended in recent generations from those practicing, such faith...regardless of whether their ancestors were members of the tribe of Judah, Levi, Benjamin, Gad, Asher, etc...or whether they are descended from proselytes ancient, medieval, or modern. King Herod probably has descendants among living Jews, as does King David.
We are told that when Elijah comes before the Messiah does, he (Elijah) will straighten out these genealogies, but will not expel from Jewishness/the Jewish people any person who by long history and assimilation has been included.
Classically, remember too that many Jews are descended from the "mixed multitude" who came out of Egypt with the ethnic Hebrews on the night of the Passover. A close reading of Bible and Talmudic sources will reveal that at times in antiquity, hundreds of thousands of non-Jews "made themselves Jews" by faith and practice, even though the Jewish community would not accept them at the time as proselytes.
In deep medieval, and antiquity, eras at least two whole Nations converted to Judaism, those being Adiabene and the Khazars. If those people have any descendants alive today, and practicing Judaism...they too count! [DNA studies as well as history suggest they were largely exterminated in later wars.]
One thing I have never understood, is when people ask about the "lost ten tribes" which may actually be but eight or nine...THEY WERE NEVER LOST! Those among them, who continued to observe their faith and identity, remained among the Jews of Mesopotamia, who returned home some with Zerubbabel in 537 BC, and some on planes in 1952. Thus they are included among Jews today.
Those who lost their faith, and memory of who they were, or intermarried away, are now mixed in to Gentile nations, but are no more "lost" than the millions of persons of the Judah and Levi tribes who also melted into the nations around THEM.
>Colin went as a moderator, not a guest. Powell did not go to Israel to forward Israeli policy. American diplomates do not go to other peoples messes to clean their table of crumbs. They go to try and infuse some sanity to the insane.
Americans frequently think that "Might makes right." Americans frequently think that because they have big bombs and a bigger ego that they can enforce their ideas on the world and pound "sense" into nations that have agendas that do not bow at the altar of American Pride.
G-d did not choose Israel because it was the biggest, most righteous or the best, but because it was His choice and the least. He defends His choices against all comers, even against America which has lowered its standards amd made a superhighway out of the Broad Road to destruction and thinks it can hammer God into lowering His. That is absolutely an impossibility. There is no moral equivalency to the position of Israel and Palestine and Israel didn't create this mess. Israel is being attacked by its demon possessed enemies on a basis of the Jew first and then the gentile. America can render aid to Israel or be considered an enemy of G-d and He is more than able to send the same enemies to America and indeed already did on 9/11/02. Many have not been paying attention. More on America the Hammer there:
Jer 50:23 How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!

As was apparent by the eight prior years of the administration, a nation which refuses to repent gets the leaders it deserves. Clinton was a mirror and the nation sang, "We like it like that!" Click here for an image: #11 Clinton sold secrets to the enemy and Bush is the champion of compromise/ecumenicism which will make America the land of the spewed out. See Rev. 3.
Michael Rood on Zechariah -- the flying scroll is a missile
The above is an article by Michael Rood about the "woman" being put in a basket (container) with a lead cover and the "flying scroll" of Zechariah. [Thank you, Jeremiah Jr, for the link!] Because of a misunderstanding of the Hebrew word which was translated "woman," we see that Zechariah was reporting on a destroying "fire" in a container with a lead cover. It is a missile -- a fire of destruction, with a lead shield, two stage, and it flies. It covers the WTC, the four war chariots, Iraq, etc. and two fires so that won't be just Israel.
Also remember all the posts from Thinkin' Gal and Jeremiah Jr about two sticks, two countries, Judah and Ephraim, guess who, and see Ezek 38 for "at the same time." This long article is a fascinating read and one of the most important things we have seen lately. Click on the link. Read it. All of it. And weep.
Set forth below are the two few paragraphs: -- This should put an end to "write your congressmen" --
Zec 6:1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.A major principle in the ways of God is this: People MUST repent BEFORE the trouble starts. Once it starts, there is no changing one's eternal direction. See Prov. 1:20-33 here #11. Even my dog knows to come when he is called."...When we, who are extremely north of the land of Israel, sent our war chariots over to the land immediately north of Israel, we prayed for victory in bringing our enemies to justice. We did not pray in a spirit of humility and repentance for the sins of our nation that brought on this calamity. We prayed in a spirit of how dare they attack one nation under God surely God will bless America as we bring these religious fanatics to true justice! The still small voice of the Spirit of the living God was quelled by the patriotic drum beats and the stirring bugles calling us to arms. We had been preparing for this war on Afghanistan for a long time, and one man became our excuse to invade. The day before the attack on the World Trade Center, the stallions were snorting and pawing the earth in anticipation. The day after the attack, the war chariots were released.
"Spiffy new graphics in a red, white, and blue patriotic flag motif announced Americas New War as the media immediately snapped to attention, did an about face, and became all American overnight. Banners demanding God bless America decorated the most unusual locations from taverns to the menu boards in front of churches. The 501C-3 tax exempt non-prophet corporations doing business as churches in America, did not call for humility, and repentance from our National sins. They could not even name the sins, because their tax exempt status would be revoked by their Mother corporation the Internal Revenue Service. Instead, they promoted the same nationalistic pride that swept through Hitlers Germany. I think one flag decorated bumper sticker in a church parking lot said it best, THE POWER OF PRIDE. The American peace and prosperity church corporations are on a roll and there will be no call for repentance. The Ruach Kadosh that America threw out of its education system several generations ago has been silenced. The Ten Commandments have been successfully chiseled off the walls of every 501C-3 church, and every government building in Amerika. His spirit has been quieted His voice has been silenced.
"In the United States Capitol building, Senators and Congressmen prayed for God to bring justice to those who had killed thousands. Justice they will receive. These are the same men that legalized the procedure of doctor-assisted child delivery in which seconds before a baby takes his or her first breath, as he is still constricted in the mothers birth canal, the doctor inserts a sharpened steel instrument up into the base of the babies skull and severs the brain from the spinal column. Instead of taking a breath 5 seconds later and then nursing contently on her mothers breast, the child is still born - after the painful convulsions cease. The baby is then gutted and its organs are sold to research facilities. And these calloused atheist politicians pray to God for justice? You sick, arrogant bastards! Instead of humbling yourselves and repenting for the sins of our nation, you haughtily, with great national pride and fanfare, ask the God who we have offended, to give us the strength bring to justice all of those who have offended us? More babies are killed each day by the stroke of the pen and the American Medical Industry, than were killed in the WTC attack. Judgment is coming to America, and it will come at the hands of the merciless worshippers of the moon god - because America has forsaken the one true God.
"Repent. The day of the LORD is at hand."
And if the archeological findings of the annals of Assyrian King Sargon are correct and represent the total of the captivity, King Sargon says he carried away 27,290 people and 50 chariots, so the majority of the Northern Kingdom could have escaped captivity.
(I think that Syrians were Assyrians, but Assyrians were not necessarily Syrians!)
