Conversations and corrections over history of Palestine and Israel – 2 of 2

Preface:

The purpose of my recounting these online conversations is to ensure visitors to this blog can appreciate that there’s a far deeper background to Israel’s ‘Day of Infamy’ on 6th October than is claimed by militant masses devoid of compassion, who instead complain vociferously about Palestinians being trampled down.

NB: many traditional Jews are opposed to Zionism and the creation of a national state of Israel.

In A Call for Clarity on Israel and Gaza (July 2014) I cite renowned British journalist Melanie Phillips:

“This thing ultimately defies rational explanation. As Islamist savagery spreads, the moral depravity of the Western animus against Israel and the Jews can only be described as a metaphysical psychosis.”

Why did the West turn against Israel? In answering, Melanie refers to the conventional explanation that, with the post-1967 ‘occupation’, modern David turned into Goliath.

In The West’s Metaphysical Psychosis Melanie provides a solid explanation by referring to Joshua Murvachik’s new book, Making David into Goliath: How the World Turned Against Israel. Eg. China’s oppression of Tibet didn’t produce the same reaction. In her review Melanie puts Murvachik’s illuminating analysis of the inexplicable into a nutshell – the Arab and Muslim world set out to bend the Western mind, and succeeded.’

COMMENTARIES CONT’D

Soon after that infamous day, John Barber posted his observations at JRB Publications Israel at War. What is Happening in Israel Today followed by yesterday’s Israel and Calvinism – two hot potatoes!, which generated ‘conversations’ on Facebook.

Also yesterday, as in the previous part 1, John shares John Hymus’ item and to which one of his regular contributors objects as to its history but rightly says the satisfactory answer must be a two-states solution.

NOW, that’s just what Netanyahu was working towards with Saudi Arabia BUT which goal is not what terrorist controllers of Gaza desire – hence hamas’ war-crime to stop development of the two-state solution.  Moreover, during negotiations of 1993 Oslo Peace Accords the Palestinian Authority often delayed progress!!!

‘P’, another regular with whom I’ve ‘discussed’ American politics, claims Israeli brutality against ordinary Palestinians and political frustration resulted in the nazi-style pogrom.

Obviously, both my protagonists are unfamiliar with hamas’ true, published objectives and the first, being an atheist, rebuked me as God that people believe in is the same whatever their faith.  So I told him Islam’s god is very different Io the real God with whom Christians are in a personal relationship.

‘P’ reacts: “This more than “Hot potatoes” this is murder of women and children. This coming from Jewish Voice for Peace…” (copy JVP article, the statistics of which are to be verified, saying Israel guilty of genocide and attacking West Bank Palestinians).

Being open-minded I wanted to check out this source, as I’d heard about Jewish Voice for Peace in connection with a mob inside the US Capitol led by an offensive Islamist.

I found JVP’s reaction to the massacre – but whilst regret over loss of lives, there’s NO condemnation of the barbarity. Upon spotting a key factual error of 20th Century history I reply to ‘P’ as follows:

Upon checking JVP’s site and coverage of the barbaric massacre and kidnapping of hundreds of Jews during their sabbath, plus people from over 40 nations – not just an attack on Jews alone but also upon the global community! – I note they fail to mention it was a deliberate albeit undeclared act of war. However they excuse it with two wrongs DO make it right – thereby hypocritically copying Israel!

JVP article states, “The Israeli government may have just declared war, but its war on Palestinians started over 75 years ago. Israeli apartheid and occupation — and United States complicity in that oppression — are the source of all this violence. Reality is shaped by when you start the clock.”

War started by Israel “over 75 years ago” > WRONG! A LIE!

100 years ago during the rise of Arab nationalism Yasser Arafat’s uncle Haj Amin al-Husseini, who rose to become Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and close friend of Hitler, incited bloody anti-Jewish riots in 1920, ’29 & ’36 – AND to our great shame with connivance of British officials overseeing our Mandate of Palestine!!! https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/haj-amin-al-husseini

And after World War II, ARAB nations continued to wage war against the long-established and immigrant Jewish communities!

So, we need factual historical honesty, do we not?

As JVP claims reality is shaped when ‘the clock’ starts, it begs these questions:

  • why have they got timing and associated facts wrong – and implicitly,
  • what else do they get wrong, even deliberately distort??

PS Remember the Islamic principle of taqiyaa – lying and dissimulation is approved by their god!”

‘P’ responds: “This is a Jewish site not Islamic.”

RB: “Yes I know, but it will indubitably be influenced by Muslims, as inferred from inaccuracy on basic historic facts.”

With respect to that influence, even infiltration perhaps, here’s what I already knew – NB Anti-Defamation League’s warning about Jewish Voice for Peace!!!:

Oh by the way, the same threat of decades ago but no longer to be ignored:

Conversations and corrections over history of Palestine and Israel – 1 of 2

As mentioned previously, it’s so encouraging when encountering those with a very different opinion BUT who insist anyone else is mistaken in having a higher view. In my experience such friendly opposition is usually based upon one’s political lens, which is not always fully informed and thus rather prejudicial, rather than being disinterestedly open to considering all pertinent information. In such instances this opposition of ‘flak’ comes when I’m working on something important – as yesterday when prepping Neil Mackereth’s post on The Existential Threat to Israel – so I was metaphorically ‘over the target’ and….TRUTH BOMBS AWAY!!

My fellow watchman John Barber welcomes discussion on his Facebook and on Tuesday re-posted this from John Hymus (18 October):

PALAESTINA

A BOOK FROM 1714 BRINGS PROOF THAT PALESTINE WAS NEVER ARAB

The author spoke Hebrew, Arabic and Ancient Greek perfectly and European languages. The book was written in Latin In 1695 it was sent to Israel, at that time known as Palestine. During his travels, he researched about 2,500 places where people who were mentioned in the Bible or Michna lived.

1) First map the Land of Israel.

2) Then he identified each of the places mentioned in the Michna or Talmud with its original source. If the source was Jewish, he listed it in the Holy Scriptures. If the source was Roman or Greek, it indicated the connection in Greek or Latin..

3) conducted a demographic survey and a census of each community.

Your conclusions

1. No settlement in the Land of Israel has a name of Arab origin.

Most colonial names come from Hebrew, Greek, Latin or Roman languages.. In fact, until today except for Ramlah, no Arab settlement has an original Arabic name.. So far, most settlement names are of Hebrew or Greek origin, names sometimes distorted into Arabic name meaningless. There is no Arabic meaning in names like Acco (Acre), Haifa, Jaffa, Naplusa, Gaza or Jenin and the cities called Ramallah, El Halil and El-Kuds (Jerusalem) lack Arabic historical roots or philology. In 1696, the year Relaand returned the country, Ramallah, for example, was called Bet’allah (Hebrew name Beit El) and Hebron was called Hebron (Hevron) and the Arabs called Mearat HaMachpelah El Chalil, his name for the ancestor Abraham.

2. Most of the lands were empty, sorry.

Most of the lands were empty, desolate and few inhabited and concentrated mostly in the cities of Jerusalem, Acco, Tzfat, Jaffa, Tiberius and Gaza. Most of the population were Jews and some were Christians. Few Muslims, mostly Bedouin nomads. Naplusa, known as Shchem, was the exception, as there lived about 120 people, members of the Muslim Natsha family, and about 70 Shomronites.

In the capital of Galilee, Nazareth, lived about 700 Christians and in Jerusalem about 5000 people, mostly Jews and some Christians.

Interesting thing is that Reland mentioned Muslims as Bedouin nomads who came to the area as reinforcement of the building and farming manpower. In other words seasonal workers.

For example, in Gaza there were about 500 people, 55% of Jews and the rest mainly Christians. Jews grew up and worked in their flowering vineyards, olive orchards and wheat fields. Christians worked in the trade and transportation of goods and goods.

Tiberius and Tzfat were mostly Jews and with the exception of mention of fishermen who fished on Lake Kinneret – the Lake of Galilee – a traditional occupation of Tiberius, there is no mention of their occupations. A city like Um el-Phahem was a village where ten families lived, around people, all of them Christians. There was also a small Maroonite church in the village (Shehadah family).

3. No Palestinian heritage or Palestinian nation.

The book completely contradicts any postmodern theory that claims a “Palestinian legacy” or a Palestinian nation. The book confirms the bond, relevance, kinship of the Land of Israel with Jews, and complete lack of belonging to Arabs, who stole the Palestinian Latin name and took it for themselves.

Conclusion. — This extensive study concludes that Israel is at its absolute right to defend, claim and protect what has always been theirs for more than 3,500 years ago. When before Abraham got promise of the promised land to ISRAEL, NOT PALESTINE.

It is the land of a promise that was made to Abran by changing his name to Abraham and is registered in Genesis 17:4,5 (Kadosh Israelite Messianic Bible):

4. ‘As for me, this is my Covenant with you:………

5. Your name will no longer be Avram [exalted father], but your name will be Abraham [father of many], for I have made you father of many nations.

The same promise was repeated to his son Isaac, the same promise was repeated to Jacob the youngest son of Isaac the father of the 12 tribes of Israel.

Older documents NO MENTION OF PALESTINIANS OR ARABS.

Mention the Israeli children descendants of Avram whose name was changed to Abraham.

Note. – Adrian Reland (1676-1718), Dutch orientalist, was born in Ryp, studied in Utrecht and Leiden and was a teacher of oriental languages successively in Harderwijk (1699) and Utrecht (1701). His most important works are Palestine ex monumentis veteribus illustrata (Utrecht, 1714) and Antigüitates sacrae vetum Hebraeorum.

COMMENTARIES

John B’s re-posting of John H’s item has attracted 13 comments, but first we’ll consider  Bill Smith’s on my timeline:

“I am reading, for the second time, given the present situation a book by Jay Sekulow called ” Jerusalem. A Biblical and Historical case for the Jewish Capital.” He is an internationally renowned Lawyer. It shows beyond doubt Israel’s right to the land and Jerusalam as exclusively belonging to Israel and the Jewish people.

In his great work, ” One New Man” Reuven Doros also shows the ancient history and more recent conflict since 1917 bringing out the Jewish people’s exclusive right to the land and Jerusalem. Fascinating reading. Blessings.”

RB: Good authors and years after the non-sectarian historico-geopolitical book mentioned, David Noakes told me about an excellent examination of all this by diverse Jewish & Christian authors edited by Fred Wright, ‘Israel: His People, His Land, His Story’.

My conversation with John H on John B’s timeline:

RB: Most interesting source and I expect he made some reference to Caliph Omar’s attack and subjugation of Jerusalem in 655 AD, of whom the resident Patriarch Sophronius is on record as saying, “The abomination of the desolation is in the holy place”!!! [Gibbon, ‘The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire’]

JH: Thanks, Richard. Also a very interesting comment by patriarch Sophronius.

RB: In ‘The Invisible Hand’ Victor Dunstan relates Jerusalem’s liberation from the Ottoman Empire in 1917 to the prophecy timings in Daniel 12 to the exact day and notes the coincidence with Muslim calendar dates and a Turk’s prediction of its fall. [See Bio Info for introduction to Dunstan’s work.]

JH:  Do you know whether it is true that a belief was circulating in Islam that a Prophet of God would come to take Jerusalem and that the ottomans shouldn’t resist him? So when Allenby came and entered Jerusalem they didn’t resist because when Allenby was pronounced by the Ottoman’s or Muslims it sounds like ‘Allah Nabi’ which in a Arabic means ‘Prophet of God’.

RB:  Yes indeed as that’s what I was referring to but didn’t have time to write. Dunstan gives a terrific account of the whole event. I will check if he cites Turkish or otherwise source…Did quick search on Allenby and this post gives some background:
What did Jesus Foretell About The First World War?

JH:  I just found this in my notes. Note the very last few lines.

“After taking up his command in Cairo in June 1917, Allenby had been given explicit orders by Prime Minister David Lloyd George to capture Jerusalem by Christmas.
This was in the wake of two failed efforts by his predecessor, Sir Archibald Murray, to conquer Gaza, a necessary condition for the conquest of Palestine from the Ottoman Turks.
Allenby began by defeating Turkish forces in the Third Battle for Gaza, which ended on November 7.
Following that, he sent out forces along two flanks, one charged with capturing Jaffa, a mission accomplished on November 16, and the other in the direction of Jerusalem
An initial attempt to surround the city and force its surrender, at the end of November, failed. But on December 7, having repositioned the troops of the British XX Corps, the Turkish forces in the city concluded that Allenby was withdrawing, and relaxed their defense of Jerusalem.
In his book “Jerusalem Curiosities,” Abraham Ezra Millgram quotes at length from Vivian Gilbert’s “The Romance of the Last Crusade: With Allenby to Jerusalem,” which describes the multiple attempts that the rulers of the vanquished city had to make before they could find someone among the conquerors who was authorized and willing to accept Jerusalem’s surrender.
On December 11, 1917, General Edmund Allenby, commander of the British “Egyptian Expeditionary Force,” entered Jerusalem, two days after the Turkish forces occupying the city raised the white flag before Allied forces.
Understanding the symbolic sensitivity of Jerusalem to both its residents and religious adherents the world over, Allenby, who was later described by T.E. Lawrence as “morally so great that the comprehension of our littleness came slow to him,” elected to make his entrance through Jaffa Gate on foot. This was in intentional contrast to Kaiser Wilhelm II, who, visiting the Holy Land in 1898, insisted on entering the Old City seated on a white horse.
The first to be offered Jerusalem was “Private Murch,” a British cook bivouacked in the north of the city, who had been sent on December 9 by his commanding officer to the nearby village of Lifta to find some eggs for breakfast. When Murch was approached by the mayor of Jerusalem, on horseback and flying a white flag, offering to turn over the keys to the city, Murch replied, “I don’t want yer city. I want some eggs for my hofficers!”
Nonetheless, Murch reported the development to his superiors, and Brig.-Gen C.F. Watson hurried off in the direction of town to accept its surrender from its mayor, Hussein Salim al-Husseini.
However, when the divisional commander, Maj.-Gen John Shea, learned of this development, he got on the field phone and order that Watson be stopped: “I will myself take the surrender of Jerusalem!”
Gaston Bodart, Austria’s official historian of the Great War, wrote that the moral significance of Jerusalem’s capture “was even greater than its military importance.”
Allenby understood this. In declaring martial law in the city, he promised that “every sacred building, monument, holy spot, shrine, traditional site, endowment, pious bequest, or customary or customary place of prayer of whatsoever form of the three religions will be maintained and protected.” And, as noted, he was careful to dismount from his horse before entering Jaffa Gate.
Prime Minister Lloyd George described the capture of Jerusalem as “a Christmas present for the British people.”
It is said that a Jewish Allied soldier from New Zealand, Corporal Louis Isaac Salek, hung a blue-and-white flag, decorated with the Star of David from the Tower of David. He had ordered the flag from the Jewish haberdasher Moreno Cicurel, of Cairo, who had it made by a tailor named Eliezer Slutzkin. Within 20 minutes, the British had removed the flag. pla
On this day he entered Jerusalem, Allenby did so modestly on foot, two days after the Turks had surrendered it, after several attempts.
It was Muslim hearsay and rumour that one day a prophet would come and take the city and no resistance should be offered against that prophet.
Allenby’s name sounds like ‘Allah Nabi’ (nabiin allah – نبي الله ) which in Arabic means ‘Prophet of God’ “

 

RB: Dunstan’s ‘The Invisible Hand’ (1984), chapter 8 ‘What Jesus Foretold About the First World War, after 4-page sub-section ‘The Exact Day of Deliverance Foretold’ on page 118:

‘AN OLD TURKISH SAYING

In the days before the First World War the Turks had a saying: “When the waters of the Nile flow into Palestine, then a prophet of the Lord come and drive the Turks out of the land.”

Of course before (the war) everyone knew the waters of the Nile would never flow into Palestine (they don’t flow) today. During the (war) however, British engineers laid a pipeline from the Nile onto Palestine to supply water to the troops. So the waters of the Nile did, quite literally, flow into Palestine. The Arabic form of Allenby…is Allah-en-Nebi, ‘Nebi’ means ‘prophet’ and ‘Allah’ means ‘God.

So when the man called in Arabic ‘Prophet of God’ came to Palestine and caused the waters of the Nile to flow into the land – the Turks WERE driven out! Coincidence?’

In the next part, we’ll consider our conversational opposition’s historical inaccuracy…

The Existential Threat to Israel – Part 1: Islam’s counterfeit Christ – Neil Mackereth

After these quieter years of reduced coverage of the Middle-East, it’s strange to remind ourselves of the Iranian regime’s ominous role, not only in directing its proxy terrorists against Israel but also its inhuman Shiite theology about the necessity of killing people in order to hasten the return of its false ‘messiah’ (click to read my many posts on this issue).

So I’m pleased to welcome and publish Neil Mackereth’s latest analysis (emphases mine):

THE  EXISTENTIAL  THREAT  AGAINST  ISRAEL – PART 1

Introduction

There seems to be a view that Jews should not seek to prevent their own destruction.

However great the evil atrocities perpetrated against them, it is not long after the event before Israel is being called upon to be proportionate and show restraint – the hypocrisy is staggering.

Furthermore, the recognition, in some cases mealy mouthed, that Israel has a right to defend itself is undermined by the immediate acceptance of Hamas claims of Israeli “atrocities”, without due diligence, appropriate caution, and certainly without equally loud coverage, if and when the claim turns out to have been a lie.

Mass rallies in support of the “Palestinian cause”, in reality, venerate terrorists and infer that genocidal Hamas’ behaviour is resistance, while Israeli resistance is genocide!

The media seem to miss the point that Hamas, the “government” of Gaza, shows no interest in the welfare of the Palestinians living in Gaza, pays no attention to the laws relating to the conduct of war, and seeks the annihilation of all Jews. For Israel to survive, Hamas needs to be expunged, and that may require a surgical strike on Iran, the “puppet-masters”; as well as a ground war in Gaza.

Background

I am convinced that the world faces an unprecedented, much misunderstood and, even now, barely acknowledged threat from both “Radical Islam” and “Apocalyptic Islam”.

I want to be clear; many Muslims are peace-loving, law-abiding and blameless.

However, it is an uncomfortable fact that jihadists and fundamentalists are still real Muslims. Furthermore, it is sad that, as our media shows, there are mass rallies and protests by Muslim extremists, but we do not hear much from the moderate peace-loving Muslims.

Recent events relating to Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran, have highlighted the dangers of complacency when looking at the rise of Iran and its terrorist proxies. Iran is, to a large extent, a hermit kingdom. Our western mindset and ignorance have blinded us to the truth of its intentions and methods. It hungers for genocide; its religious views make it constitutionally incapable of certain types of change, even if that change might ensure its survival; and it considers itself a herald of —and a likely headline player in — the imminent end of the world.

Iran follows a fundamentalist Islamic creed that it believes will lead to a final confrontation that precipitates the return of the Mahdi (the 12th Imam) the Islamic “messiah”. In this respect, Iran has a medieval religious fervour, commitment and mission that the West has difficulty understanding.

This ideology permeates the whole legal and political direction of Iran. There is no genuine recognition of, or negotiation with, any nation or person who has not given allegiance to Islam. In other words, recognition of other nations, international treaties, laws and so on, is only tolerated as a necessary expedient, or stepping stone, to its ultimate goal. In truth, it is duty-bound not to negotiate with infidels. Therein lies the challenge!

Most commentators agree that the Shi’a leaders of Iran are seeking to acquire nuclear weapons, by whatever means, and they make no secret of their ambition to destroy Israel. They seek to hasten the final world confrontation, precipitating the Mahdi’s return. They have also expressed their aim to rid the world of the United States, a country they refer to as “The Great Satan.” We have seen that the possibility of collateral damage to “friends” plays no part in the strategy and tactics of Iran and its proxies.

Israel is convinced that it faces a nation whose rulers are driven by an apocalyptic, genocidal, End-times eschatology which involves the annihilation of Israel.

The question for diplomats and negotiators operating on behalf of democratic western nations, is whether they can rely on there being any honest intent or integrity in any pledges made by those who actually see it as in their best interests to mislead and prevaricate?

The Return of the Mahdi

The Mahdi, or 12th Imam, is the anticipated saviour of Islam destined to lead Muslims to world domination. Some Muslim leaders see it as their duty to precipitate the return of the Mahdi by instigating world turmoil. The Muslim teaching, that Jesus was a prophet who will return, can cause confusion because of its apparent similarity with Christianity. However, the “Jesus” of Islam is not accepted as Son of God and is foreseen as returning as an assistant of the Mahdi, enforcing conversion to Islam.

The belief in the imminent return of the Mahdi is more prevalent amongst Middle-Eastern Muslims than might be expected.

According to a poll taken by the Pew Research Centre in 2012, a surprisingly large number of Muslims in Middle Eastern countries believe they will live to see the return of the Mahdi. The figures for this belief by Muslims of the Mahdi’s imminent return are: Egyptians 40%; Jordanians 41%; Palestinians 46%; Iraqis 72%.

Figures for those Muslims who believe Jesus will return as a deputy to the Mahdi are: Egyptians 39%; Jordanians 29%; Palestinians 46% and Iraqis 64%.

Christians need to be aware of this parallel and counterfeit version of the return of Christ and understand the political implications of this teaching about a false messiah and a false prophet. The leaders of radical and apocalyptic Islam are seeking to mobilise those who share their End-times views and to convert or destroy those who don’t.

Is what is happening in Israel and Gaza an End-times “sign”? The brutality of Hamas certainly fulfils Jesus’ general predictions of violence in the End-times. Radical and apocalyptic Islam might also be seen as contributors to the urgent need for a peace treaty which will, in fact, be the catalyst for the start of the time of tribulation.

I will look at the Biblical significance of Gaza in Part 2.

Humanity’s 2nd Pivotal Point: Update #1 – personal choice of good or evil

Recap of Summary from This the 2nd Pivotal Point for Humanity versus satan?

EVERYONE’S PERSONAL CHOICE

Both Historic Pivotal Points apply to EVERY individual as a consequence of personal choice and responsibility. In the First, each person must decide for theirself whether or not to acknowledge Jesus Christ for who He says He is!

“Therefore, whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.  But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 10:32-33 NKJV – BibleGateway.com)

The Second Pivotal Point is about each individual’s reaction to the utterly sub-human barbarism of 7th October atrocity by gazan terrorists and civilians killing, mutilating, burning, raping and kidnapping innocent people. It’s indubitably empowered and enacted by demonic powers to further satanic strategy. Consequently, unless those who express ‘hate speech’ and enact hatred and harm any fellow human being sincerely repent and turn away from such behaviour, they’ve chosen their very own post-mortem, eternal abode – the fiery pit of Hell.

Bible Update re. Four Signposts: 2 of 2 – Mark Davidson

The Hamas Incursion: A Window Into Second Signpost Tactics

‘On closer inspection, there are similarities between Hamas’ attack on southern Israel and how the Second Signpost—the attack and invasion by Iran on Mideast Muslim nations—might play out.

And why not? After all, the IRGC trained Hamas and all the militants in the regions around Israel. I believe we have a window into how the IRGC will conduct war during the Second Signpost. (Click above image for link to continue reading).’

Bible Update re Four Signposts: 1 of 2 – Mark Davidson

The Signpost Perspective: The Hamas-Israel War, 2023

I’ve cited Mark Davidson on several occasions and he now writes:

‘While many could think this is just yet another attack on Israel by one of the many Islamist militias surrounding Israel, it is also one of the most ferocious attacks on Israel since the Yom Kippur War that started 50 years ago.

The Signpost Perspective

From the Signpost perspective, we can look a little deeper into the meaning of this incursion by Hamas. Now, we know from the Signpost theory of Bible interpretation that the Second Signpost is next. There are also reasons (explained in this post and this post) to believe the Psalm 83 war would occur at the same time, in order to pin Israeli forces down allowing the IRGC to invade and occupy Muslim nations. Hamas would correspond to Philistia in the list of peoples attacking in Psalm 83:5–8.

The following is a short list of possibilities, listed from least dangerous to more dangerous….(Click above image for link to continue reading)’

Intel analysis confirms blog on Iran’s long-term goal of war on Israel

Please visit blog’s Telegram channel where several linked items and extracts are posted from Daily Telegraph heading below. They bring detailed confirmation of what I’ve been monitoring since mid-1980s of the Iranian regime’s long-term planning to remove Israel – BUT biblically at their peril:

Jerusalem prophecy gets God-incidental progress upon publication herein

‘ReadyToWorship’ picked up on a poignant part of the word brought by Christopher Wickland that I re-published yesterday wherein he writes:

“…Watch My people, I will raise up nations who will stand up for you, who will defend your cause. I will even cause some who are your enemies to be your allies in the days ahead.

I will raise up sheep nations that will stand alongside you My Ariel. The land of three Lions will come to your aid soon with strength and military power. When they do, you will stand shoulder to shoulder with others whom I will raise to shield you from violence (Hamas)…”

Your fellow reader comments:

  1. Is England the nation of three lions? That is one of our emblems!

  2. God is such a good and loving God. May He give us in England a chance to get it right this time. A land that has harmed and forgotten you Israel, come back, weeping, to help you. May He wipe away your tears and bind you up with his love, and may we be your handservant, and this time, this time, this time, love you as we ought to.

1 > As for the first: football fans are well aware of the 3 lions motif but I did a quick query of Google and find:

The Morrant Group family business provides an excellent historical summary which, of course refers to Richard Coeur-de-Lion, Richard The Lionheart, and Wikipedia states (with relevance to this prophecy?): 

‘Richard was an important Christian commander during the Third Crusade, leading the campaign after the departure of Philip II of France and achieving considerable victories against his Muslim counterpart, Saladin, although he finalised a peace treaty and ended the campaign without retaking Jerusalem.[4]

Prophetic word for Jerusalem; with news – Christopher Wickland

Ezekiel 7:11 ‘Violence (Hamas) has grown into a rod of wickedness. None of them shall remain, nothing of their crowds, nothing of their wealth – there is nothing of importance in them.’

“Oh Israel, My daughter, My Zion. At this time you sit alone like a shelter in a vineyard. The nations gather round you and conspire against you. Acts of violence (Hamas) are brought against you from the sky and the airwaves.

When you suffer, you sit alone in silent patience with no one to help you, none to defend your cause. Yet I AM your ADONAI, I AM merciful and I will not reject you O My people. I take no pleasure in causing you grief or pain. I AM your shield and your very great reward.

I know Israel, that you have become tired, you have become weary. You have become as one who walks around the same mountain year on year. ‘Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!’ Yet Shalom seems to evade the city of peace. Like an old garment, you have become tired and stretched thin.

Let Me comfort you O Jerusalem, for you are the city of Ariel. I will bring back that which is lost to you, that which your heart desires everyday. I will return that which I took from you My people. I will give you back your heart, that you may stand strong until the end.

In this hour I want to show favour and compassion to you. The enemy has come like a flood to you, but I will raise up My standard against violence (Hamas) in these days. You will no longer sit as a shack in a field of cucumbers.

Watch My people, I will raise up nations who will stand up for you, who will defend your cause. I will even cause some who are your enemies to be your allies in the days ahead.

I will raise up sheep nations that will stand alongside you My Ariel. The land of three Lions will come to your aid soon with strength and military power. When they do, you will stand shoulder to shoulder with others whom I will raise to shield you from violence (Hamas).

You are My suffering servant and much pain lies ahead, but the days of Peace from the city of Peace are coming, when I shall rule and reign as your ADONAI from Mount Zion and my glory shall cover the earth as the waters cover the seas”

Chris Wickland 5/7/23

RB: RECENT NEWS:

The invasion and utterly sub-human, barbaric massacre of and kidnapping of hundreds of children, parents and other adults after dawn on 7th October, a high sabbath at the close of Israel’s Feast of Tabernacles and national holiday, was a deliberate act of war by hamas, the governing body of Gaza.  By attacking not only Israeli citizens but also those of many other nations it declared war against the whole world!
Thus, they’re consequently and directly responsible for their own failed rocket blowing up outside the Baptist hospital in Gaza!!

Thomas Harry, senior leader of Mount Zion International Tabernacle in Falkirk, Scotland, writes to me :

“We truly live in a historic time and the time of fulfilment of all things is here along with the expected shakings.

The Lord gave me a word on the reward of the righteous and wicked which is in keeping with a lot you share about the exposure of wickedness over the pond. In addition, it has some clarity on the current Israel situation and in particular how the Lord is using all of this to tests our hearts like Matthew 25 will impact nations.

I do not often feel such an urgency with a word, but the aspect of Israel and all of our hearts being judged has been confirmed by several people, so felt I should send to you in case you can share as I know it is central to God’s earth agenda right now. Link is below and was just published today:”

As recommended, first read > https://z3news.com/w/the-calm-before-the-storm/

In view of my long-standing personal interest and inspiration (“This is ALL about to be fulfilled” as told herein) regarding Matthew 13 parable of the wheat and tares, I note Thomas asks in this introductory post (emphases added):

What Type of Storm Is Coming?

Haggai 2:6 “This is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land.”

“The coming storm is a culmination of all things, spiritual, financial, physical. It will affect all parts of life and nations. It is a clashing of kingdoms. It is the maturity of the wheat and the tares in Matthew 13:30 “Let both grow together until the End Time harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers the angels, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” 

Many can see already the various agendas that are being pushed upon the world and this will only continue until all End-Time scripture is fulfilled. As the Tares must be allowed to be revealed with all their demonic anti-God agenda’s and then judged by God. All of this will further shake the church and the true church (the Wheat) will finally arise from the midst of it. However, we can be encouraged as scripture clearly tells us that there will be a global outpouring, harvest and the manifestation of the sons of God that will lead to the church rising in power. So we all have a part to play if we want to be part of God’s plan for our time.”

His ‘urgent’ follow-up on Time of Rewards for the Righteous and the Wicked refers to Israel and I note especially our standing in agreement on my opinion upon the prime purpose behind satanic strategy:

“This is a land conflict that began with God’s covenant promise to Abraham to give him offspring and the Promised Land back in Genesis 12. That covenant He made with Abraham about the land of Israel predates the Mosaic Law and stands today as God does not break covenant. This is why scripture says in the New Testament – “If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” –  Galatians 3:26. That is the same promise which believers today are a fulfilment of in Christ, exactly as scripture tells us.

Therefore, it is vital believers realize this is a spiritual battle of the highest level as the devil wants Israel wiped out. The same as the enemy sought to abort the destiny of Moses and Jesus and killed all the children in an attempt to stop their arrival and purpose. This is because he wants no nation of Israel to exist for Jesus to return to on the Mount of Olives, which will end the devil’s time of influence on the earth. If believers can grasp that point alone, many will change their perspective forever. Believers would also be greatly impacted if they could only realize that praying for peace in Jerusalem, is actually praying for the Lord’s return, as only the true Prince of Peace will establish peace in Israel, that the entire world is currently burdened with.”

So, A HUGE thank you to the Lord and to Thomas. Also, I note this accords with my asking on Monday Is this 2nd Pivotal Point for humanity versus satan?

More confirmation it’s all about first two jigsaw pieces, Iran and Israel

Regarding my reminder on Monday 9th October about the Lord drawing my attention as a not-yet believer to the great danger the Iranian regime poses to the nation of Israel, on that day Tomi Arayomi broadcast this video and associated ‘short’ poignant summary confirming Iran’s current behind-the-scenes activity. (‘Hat-tip’ to Tony Puccio for trying to send a link in his comment of last night.):

In my large coverage of Iran’s quest to eradicate the state of Israel I’ve occasionally referred to its quasi-religious motivation of deliberately arranging calamitous events in order to hasten the return of their Mahdi, or hidden Twelfth Imam, as in this posted ion 20 July 2012:

My ‘take’ on Iran vs. Israel

Therein I conclude :

‘This blog’s Welcome briefly recounts how I became aware of the huge role played by Iran in ‘The Last Days’. Now and again I refer to Iran in connection with the ‘Ezekiel 38 alliance’, otherwise known as ‘Gog and Magog’ and referred to in Revelation 20.

That role’s warning flags are:

  1. Mid-1980’s joint-rehearsal of the storming of Jerusalem by Iranian-Iraqi elite units, despite fighting on opposite sides during the Iran-Iraq War! (Refer to Review 2 – Iran and Nuclear ‘Fix’).
  2. Very early in his presidency Obama starts secretly appeasing Iran (email 18 May 2009).
  3. July/Aug 2010 – Iran’s nuclear reactor goes live, Supreme Leader reports having been visited by the Hidden Imam about his violent return (email 19 August 2010).
  4. Nov 2011 – referred to event 1 above in ‘Welcome’, introductory post launching this blog.
  5. Nov 2013 – event 1 repeated by Iranian troops in drill ‘Towards Jerusalem’ two years to the date I blogged about the 1980s rehearsal in ‘Welcome’. (Invisible Hand Reappears).
  6. Mar 2015 – The Lord asked, “How many months since that blog you wrote about Iran?”. Upon checking, I’m prompted to expect developments of nuclear deal four months later, ie this July (Review 2 – Iran and Nuclear ‘Fix’). The reference was to when I’d asked if my triple warning about Iran had disrupted my internet’s blogging connection in Nov ’13.
  7. Aug 2015 – new video of IRGC & Iranian proxies ‘imagining’ taking Jerusalem, as related in above section.

Finally, there’s also my statement in March: What’s weird about blogging about Iran.’

Reminder: 2017 prophecy of tsunami of God’s Glory, Isaiah 17 – Veronika West

Last night Veronika was reminded of a prophetic word received in the seventh month of 2017 and therefore posted on Facebook as above: “Tonight the Holy Spirit quickened this word to me,..and highlighted Isaiah 17…to me again…; THIS IS PROPHETICALLY SIGNIFICANT in this hour… KEEP WATCHING AND PRAYING; 

ISAIAH 17…; DAMASCUS..!

Here’s what she published on His Kingdom Prophecy

A MIGHTY TSUNAMI OF MY GLORY!

“Tell My people to brace for there is coming a mighty tsunami wave of My Glory and Grace that will shake, shift and sift the nations of the earth!”

Last night I had a powerful dream where I was caught up in the Spirit realm.  In the dream I seemed to be standing between the earthly realm and the heavenly realm, when out of the heavens came a loud voice saying“Tell My people to brace for there is coming a mighty tsunami wave of My Glory and Grace that will shake, shift and sift the nations of the earth.”

As I heard these words, suddenly a strong rushing wind began to blow around about me and then I saw a mighty tsunami wave of liquid gold coming out of the heavens and breaking forth upon the earth.

As I stayed watching in the dream, suddenly I saw a multitude of angels dressed in garments of pure white light, swiftly descending upon the earth.  As I drew a little closer, I saw that the angels carried swords in one hand and sickles in the other.

Then I heard these words, Watch!  For now a mighty tsunami wave of My Glory and Grace now breaks forth upon the nations of the earth.

Watch!  For angels of the harvest are now gathering and scattering, gathering and scattering, gathering and scattering”!

Suddenly the dream shifted and I found myself standing upon the earth, and again just as before a strong rushing wind began to blow round about me.  Then I heard a voice speak from heaven saying, “The nations rumble on like the rumbling of many waters, but I the LORD will rebuke them and they will flee far away and be chased like chaff in the mountains before the wind, or like whirling dust before a gale.”

At that very moment I woke up suddenly, and I was praying fervently in the Spirit when the Holy Spirit spoke to me saying, “Now is the time, watch!  For the whirlwind of My Spirit comes to sift and shift the nations of the earth.”

Immediately the spirit quickened to me Isaiah 17, which says,

“”Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city and will become a fallen ruin.  The cities of Aroer are forsaken; they will be for flocks to lie down in, and there will be no one to frighten them. The fortified city will disappear from Ephraim,and sovereignty from Damascus.  And the remnant of Aram; they will be like the glory of the sons of Israel,” declares the LORD of hosts.
“Now in that day the glory of Jacob will fade, and the fatness of his flesh will become lean.  It will be even like the reaper gathering the standing grain, as his arm harvests the ears, or it will be like one gleaning ears of grain. In the valley of Rephaim, yet gleanings will be left in it like the shaking of an olive tree, two or three olives on the topmost bough, four or five on the branches of a fruitful tree,” declares the LORD, the God of Israel.
In that day man will have regard for his maker.  And his eyes will look to the holy one of Israel.  He will not have regard for the altars, the work of his hands, nor will he look to that which his fingers have made, even the Asherim and incense stands.
In that day their strong cities will be like forsaken places in the forest, or like branches which they abandoned before the sons of Israel; and the land will be a desolation.  For you have forgotten the God of your salvation.  And have not remembered the rock of your refuge.  Therefore you plant delightful plants.  And set them with vine slips of a strange God.
In the day that you plant it you carefully fence it in, and in the morning you bring your seed to blossom; but the harvest will be a heap. In a day of sickliness and incurable pain.
Alas, the uproar of many peoples who roar like the roaring of the seas, and the rumbling of nations who rush on like the rumbling of mighty waters!  The nations rumble on like the rumbling of many waters, but he will rebuke them and they will flee far away, and be chased like chaff in the mountains before the wind, or like whirling dust before a gale.  At evening time, behold, there is terror! Before morning they are no more.  Such will be the portion of those who plunder us.  And the lot of those who pillage us,”
   Isaiah 17:1-14.

Note:

As I was praying concerning the dream, I shifted to where I found myself suddenly standing upon the earth.  The Holy Spirit showed me a mighty tsunami wave that is coming too in the natural realm.

It will come as “suddenly and as swiftly and as unexpectedly as the tsunami of His Glory and Grace”

Furthermore, I believe that it is no coincidence that Isaiah 17 should be quickened to me in the year 2017.

Let us continue to pray always for Israel.

Blessings to you all.

“Day of Reckoning, Recompense and Rejoicing” for nations and leaders – Dr Patricia Show

This popped up on my phone yesterday afternoon as I was about to take a tea-break. So I was able to play the video, which is longer than usual for Dr Patricia:

However, now in prepping I notice a triple 2 (222) in the tab, as above. This number’s appeared previously in connection with my birthday number as a kind of ‘double 22’, if regarded as overlapping 22 and 22. Yes, it may seem rather far-fetched but I often go with how I get ‘nudged’!

The very first two pieces of my ‘Invisible Jigsaw’ – Israel and Iran!

Puzzle In Sky by Idea Go, courtesy Freedigitalphotos.net

Four years ago, I addressed a group of UK prophets about prophecy being like pieces of an invisible jigsaw puzzle. By way of introduction I told how the Lord introduced me – a non-believer! – to the reality of Bible prophecy. Continue reading

US regime continues as unreliable ally to Israel (Two Presidents Prophecy refers)

ABSOLUTELY NO SURPRISE as these characters fail to follow the Lord’s ordained plans regarding Israel and the nations, not to mention their contempt for Britain. [Images courtesy of Koenig’s World Watch Daily]

https://www.jns.org/us-news/donald-trump/23/7/16/302653/

Those who’ve read my following post of May 2016 and that of 7 years earlier cited therein on Obama, well-know my take on this and its relevance to Bible prophecy:

Is the Lord exposing rotten politics? UK, USA – next EU??

30th August 2021 update:

As predicted on Biden’s inauguration, USA is no longer a reliable ally or world leader

PS. Just for fun I scheduled for publication on 17.7.2023 at 17:17hrs (BST)

As prophesied, Biden admin changes stance with Israel (PPU #75)

‘Two President’ prophecy coming to pass. Can dis-United States of America be trustworthy ally and keep its place as global leader?

The above post of 21 January 2021 opened by answering the title’s question: “NO, it cannot! Period.”   

Many news items on that topic have since been posted to validate the logical inference of that prophetic word. So today we’re not surprised to read about Biden’s regime taking a backward step in using Boycott Divestment & Sanctions policy to undo the solid work done by President Trump re-building America’s relationship with Israel:

A Real Inauguration?

The day before my above post had seen an official military-style funeral conducted for Joe Biden’s ‘inauguration’ whereas the proper ceremony with 21-gun salute had been conducted by the Official Presidential Salute Battery for President Trump’s arrival at Andrews Joint Base in Maryland…!!!  Thus, a clear hint of the true situation, as Derek Johnson has been reiterating in-depth for several days:

Kim Clement prophecy fulfilled as Biden and Blinken surrender to China’s dictat!! (PPU #70)

THE ABOVE NEWS COMES AS ABSOLUTELY NO SURPRISE in view of what may be inferred from the prophetic words Kim Clement brought in 2014 about China itching for – and waging – a subtle, “new kind of war with America” after Obama’s second term, as well as that of 2008 about America having Two Presidents and consequential confusion. The latter implies either one person of schizoid tendancy or two presidents in power, as presumed in current considerations of Trump possibly acting as Commander-in-Chief of the US Military – as several well-informed observers say.

So please bear both in mind, noting this is not only 70th Prophecy Progress Update but also 649th and 650th relating to  Prophecy Fulfilled!

[NB. In view of yesterday’s interruption I omitted that US Military Law takes precedence over Federal and States’ laws. This is because military laws needed enacting in order to become independent from and armed resistance to Britain, and thereby well before the Constitution and civil laws could be introduced by the fledgling states.]

Therefore, upon Biden assuming role as president I blogged on the effect on America’s allies – my conclusion is now proven as being prescient! Click this image’s heading to read and link to the prophecy:

‘Two President’ prophecy coming to pass. Can dis-United States of America be trustworthy ally and keep its place as global leader?

NOW WE KNOW the answer to my above question is “NO!”  So, let’s review my take on Monday’s news:


“…An unusual thing, isn’t it?” says the Spirit of the Lord. “Why would it be that one with a double-mind would stand up and face the people? (K Clement 4.4.2008)

And this update relating to Julie Green’s prophetic ministry (Word 5 April 2023) and then citing Derek Johnson’s postings:

Lastly, I also noted:

ISRAEL

As ever William Koenig keeps close tabs on the Biden-Blinken strained relationship with the State of Israel in his World Watch Daily. as does Amir Tsarfati on Telegram:

A ‘Biblical’ operation, not just national but global clear-out!

Derek Johnson, whom I’ve blogged about before, writes on his Telegram:

‘Shoutout to my friend Adge from Hammer Time Rapid Fire Q News on Telegram for her knowledge and wisdom, and Hebrew knowledge.

From day one, I (and many others) said it is a Biblical Operation first and not just the U.S.; this is a World Operation.

May 9th was the 33rd day of the 49 days known as the Counting of the Omer, also known as Jewish religious holiday, Lag B’Omer.

Counting of the Omer is a ritual in Judaism. It consists of a verbal counting of each of the 49 days between the holidays of Passover and Shavuot. The period of 49 days is known as the “omer period” or simply as “the omer” or “sefirah.”

The count has its origins in the biblical command of the Omer offering (or sheaf-offering), which was offered on Passover, and after which 49 days were counted, and the Shavuot holiday was observed.

Since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, the Temple sacrifices are no longer offered, but the counting until Shavuot is still performed. Shavuot is the only major Jewish holiday for which no calendar date is specified in the Torah; rather, its date is determined by the omer count.

Which is why it’s extremely important to note that CIC [Commander-in-Chief] Trump moved the Embassy and declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel on December 6, 2017, in the year of Jubilee. And according to the Bible, the rebuilding of the Temple is part of the ‘last days’ and the second coming of Yeshua (Jesus Christ).

Leviticus 23:9-21:

When ye are come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring the sheaf (omer) of the first-fruits of your harvest unto the priest. And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you; on the morrow after the day of rest the priest shall wave it. … And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the day of rest, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the waving; seven weeks shall there be complete; even unto the morrow after the seventh week shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall present a new meal-offering unto the LORD. … And ye shall make proclamation on the selfsame day; there shall be a holy convocation unto you; ye shall do no manner of servile work; it is a statute for ever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.

Deuteronomy 16:9-12:

Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee; from the time the sickle is first put to the standing corn shalt thou begin to number seven weeks. And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto the LORD thy God…

The context is “[the] children of Israel” being “gathered one by one” (verse 12). “They . . . who are about to perish” seems to refer to the peoples of Israel enduring the time of Jacob’s Trouble. The turning point, then, and the beginning of deliverance, is when “the great trumpet will be blown.” The Olivet Prophecy correlates to this, for Jesus Christ says,

Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect [chosen people] from the four winds, from one end of heaven [the Greek word is plural— “heavens”—referring to things within earth’s atmosphere (e.g., “the four winds”) rather than to the heaven of God’s throne] to the other. (Matthew 24:30-31)

Daniel 8:13 and 14:
Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said to him, “How long will it take for the vision to be fulfilled—the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, the rebellion that causes desolation, the surrender of the sanctuary and the trampling underfoot of the Lord’s people?”

He said to me, “It will take 2,300 evenings and mornings; then the sanctuary will be reconsecrated.”
