The 10th of Av

Although the title reflects how the calendar continues to move on, leaving the 9th of Av behind, it is never far out of the mind of the Jewish people. In a recent survey, 64% of Israelis would like to see the temple rebuilt. "An analysis of the answers showed that not only the ultra-Orthodox and the religious look forward to the rebuilding of the Temple (100% and 97% respectively), but also the traditional public (91%) and many seculars – 47%." Not only they but also a multitude of Christians look forward to the day in which THE TEMPLE will be rebuilt - knowing it will mark the final leg of their journey here!

Below you will find a short video from the Temple Institute, which "is dedicated to every aspect of the Biblical commandment to build the Holy Temple of G-d on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem." Enjoy the video and continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.



"But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it."
Micah 4:1

The Ninth of Av


O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Matthew 23:37

Beginning at sundown this Wednesday, July 29th, and going through until sundown Thursday marks the ninth of Av on the Jewish calendar. It is this day that Tisha B'Av is observed - the Fast of the Ninth of Av. It is a day of mourning to commemorate the many tragedies that have befallen the Jews. This day primarily commemorates the destruction of the first and second Temples, both of which were destroyed on the ninth of Av. This year, more than any other of the recent past, the Jewish people have started to get a yearning for their long lost temple. Just watch and listen to the Israeli Knesset discuss the Temple and the temple mount that occurred recently.



This is just one more sign post that we are nearing the soon return of our Lord Jesus Christ. As 2 Thessalonians 2 states, speaking about the antichrist, " Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God."



The Bible states there is coming a day in which we shall see a Jewish temple on this mount. A day in which we will mark as the final count down to the return of our Lord. Until then, set aside some time this Wednesday evening and during the day Thursday to pray for Jerusalem.

Even so, come Lord Jesus.
Revelation 22:20

The New World Order Is Here!

"And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea . . ."

Growing up in the Midwest, being raised in a Bible believing family, and going to a Spirit filled church, I would often hear about a coming one-world government with a global currency.
Russia's President, Dmitry Medvedev, pulled the world's new currency from his pocket at the meeting of G8 leaders in the Italian city of Aquila.

That there would be 'colored' money printed to replace our green dollars.


There also were rumors of a computer chip that would be implanted in our hand or head.
Of course, most of the time this was just discounted as rumors - part of some conspiracy theories! Most went on with their lives, not thinking much about it. Well, this is one soul that kept watching. From what I can see taking place, the New World Order is not coming - IT IS HERE!!! I leave you with the following video:


"And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. If any man have an ear, let him hear."
Revelation 13
