Don’t Divide the Land

In light of recent events I thought it might be nice to remind the world that it’s really not a good idea to be considering slicing and dicing up Israel and Jerusalem.

Joel Rosenberg is a best selling author and also the founder of the Joshua Fund.  He just finished a conference in Jerusalem and while there recorded a two hour radio special. Here is an excerpt where Joel talks about how God feels about dividing up the land of Israel.

The World Changes This Summer?

Very interesting, and unsettling, story coming out of the Middle East.  Not from “traditional” sources like CNN, Fox News, ABC, CBS or NBC.  Rather PJTV has a very interesting interview with a former Major General who is talking about a possible attack on Israel in a few weeks or a few months.  PJTV doesn’t provide code to embed the video, but I will link it here so you can watch it for yourself.  It’s from May 5, 2010.

Former Major General Paul Vallely (retired) talks about intelligence reports that point to a possible massive attack against Israel this Summer.  He says those attacks could include biological weapons.  The Major General says that under the plan, suicide bombers and Hezbollah soldiers will invade Israel from the north through tunnels while scud missiles launched from Lebanon rain on Israel.

IF these reports are true and IF Iran launches this attack through it’s proxies in Syria via Hezbollah, I fear for Damascus.  In Isaiah 17, God has a severe warning for the city of Damascus.  That it will be destroyed.  It will be laid to ruins.  Damascus is considered by most to be the world’s oldest continuously inhabited city.  This prophecy has not yet been fulfilled.  If the General is correct and Hezbollah launches a biological, chemical, or even nuclear attack (including dirty nukes) on Israel, Israel would most assuredly send an unmistakable message.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, pray that Muslims would continue to come to faith in Jesus, and pray that Iran, Syria and Hezbollah would have the sense not to attack Israel this Summer, or ever.
