After many years studying End-time Prophecy we have seen over the past decade how ‘signs’ of Last Days have rapidly increased and even more so since 2020! This month’s newsletter is NOT to SCARE but to PREPARE! You see, not so long-ago weeks could go by and it would feel like decades …but in the times that we are living decades go by and they feel like weeks!

The ‘signs’ are escalating so rapidly and clearly pointing to the 70^th Week of Daniel. "And I (Daniel) heard, but I did NOT understand. Then I said, O my lord, what shall be the END of these things? And He (God) said, Go, Daniel! For the words are closed up and sealed UNTIL the END-TIME!" Daniel 12:8-9. Why was it hidden for over 2,700 years and only made clearer to our generation? When does it actually BEGIN and when will it END? The last 7 years have revealed two time-lines and it is interesting to note these Hebrew words; "Beresheet" (Berisheet) (Genesis 1:1) mean; "in Beginning!" The word resheet (risheet) means "beginning" and "be" means "in." Now looks at; "Achereth" (Acharit) (Isaiah 46:10) means "the End as we know it."

“Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is NO other; I am God, and there is NO one like Me, declaring the end (ach’arit) from the beginning (Berisheet), and from ancient times things which have not been done, saying, ‘My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure.” - Isaiah 46:9-10. If we look carefully, we will see that the END is found in the BEGINNING! In Genesis 1:1 - Heaven and Earth was Created …and in Revelation 21:1 - Heaven and Earth passed away! The first word revealed to us of God, the Creator Son, was in Genesis 3:15; 4:4-5 when He left His home in Heaven to come to earth (Isaiah 25:8; 1 Corinthians 15:45) to be crucified on a Cross (Isaiah 53; Matthew 27) rose again (Psalm 68:18; Luke 24:51). Yeshua (Jesus) returned to His Home in Heaven and then at “the appointed time by ABBA Father” will come again to set up His Kingdom Rule of 1,000-Years in Jerusalem (Isaiah 19:23-25; Revelation 20:4) when He puts a “fiery end” to this present world and creates a NEW Heaven and a NEW earth (Isaiah 6:17-19; 2 Peter 3:13).

Every Prophecy in the Old Testament WAS written for a “specific time” (Ecclesiastes 3:1) …and that is the ONLY time they will fit into the plan and purpose of Yahweh God as it’s His timing - not ours! It was God that let man (who was the instrument anointed to do so) write these Prophecies thousands of years ago …thus, whichever one we are looking at can see something, and say something that points to a ‘precise’ time. Did you know that this is the most privileged generation of all time in history and that God has chosen each one of us “for such a time as this?”

Yes, we understand that NOBODY can know the TIME of our Lord Yeshua’ (Jesus) return and especially the Rapture which will happen “in a twinkling of an eye” in the “midnight” hour we least expect. However, we were told us to WATCH for the “SIGNS!’ We believe that this IS “the privileged generation” that is today getting to witness first-hand Last Days Prophecy falling into place. We are the only generation that saw “the FIG TREE” – Israel’s rebirth as a Nation in 1948 after 2,000 years and Jerusalem restored in 1967 and Golan Heights 1973. We the BRIDE of Christ – the true Church wait earnestly for our soon returning BRIDEGROOM …God’s greatest love story in these End-times!

In the New Testament our Lord Yeshua (Jesus) gave us the ‘signs’ that indicate the times and generation that will be alive at His Return in the ‘Last Day’ in Matthew 24 and Luke 21 and the Apostle John revealed the Revelation of Christ in the last Book of the Bible! How amazing is this? According to the Prophet Jeremiah, we won’t understand it until we’re thrown into the middle of it; “The anger of YHWH will not turn back until He has performed and carried out the purposes of His heart; in the last days (b-a’ch’arit ha-yamim) you will clearly understand it.” - Jeremiah 23:20 (see also Jeremiah 30:24).

All those little Prophetic hints in the Biblical Scriptures WILL come together like a ‘connect-the-dots’ puzzle, and we’ll suddenly see more clearly and understand! So, let’s examine another scripture with ‘SIGNS’ of End-times; “It will come about in that day,” declares the Lord YHWH, “That I will make the sun go down at noon and make the earth dark in broad daylight. Then I will turn your festivals into mourning and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring sackcloth on everyone’s loins and baldness on every head. And I will make it like a time of mourning for an only son, and the end (ach’aritah) of it will be like a bitter day.” - Amos 8:9-10. This passage tells us a lot …and very little at the same time. Genesis told us that the SUN, MOON and STARS were for “signs” (Genesis 1:14) which would be one of the nuggets of truth we could hold onto …but how and when they would be “signs,” we couldn’t know until the Lord’s timing. The phrase mourning for an only son, is important as it and points to the Messiah! God knows the pain when losing His Son - Yeshua (Jesus) on the Cross and does NOT want that anyone should perish but have Eternal Life. 

The wicked will have NO future but the wise WILL see the end! “Acharit” means “the end” but it also means “the future!” And that’s strange when we think about it! The END of humanity - “as we know it,” for believers it’s is our FUTURE. It’s not a bad thing as the END doesn’t mean we are ‘snuffed out’ …it means that the mistake humanity made in the Garden of Eden would be wiped clean. God’s plan to save us WILL soon come to completion. For true believers who love the Creator are wise, and God said that the future would be theirs; “Know that wisdom is thus for your soul; if you find it, then there will be a future (ach’arit), and your hope will NOT be cut off…” - Proverbs 24:14 (See also: Proverbs 23:15-18). We sometimes cannot see how the END of God’s plan will far out-weigh any good in our lives today …BUT God has a plan and the END will be far better than anything that happened in the beginning or anywhere in the middle of our life!

But what about the wicked? They would see a different END; “Do not fret because of evildoers or be envious of the wicked; for there will be NO future (ach’arit) for the evil man; the lamp of the wicked will be put out.” – Proverbs 24:19-20. Hope would remain for believers in Yeshua (Jesus) who are WISE because their future would NOT be compromised. God has a plan for His wise followers that they WILL see the end result of His plan, and would live through it. But the same cannot be said for the wicked - they wouldn’t get to see the end! They wouldn’t reap the rewards of God’s plan of Salvation; “I have seen a wicked, violent man spreading himself like a luxuriant tree in its native soil. Then he passed away, and lo, he was no more; I sought for him, but he could not be found. Mark the blameless man, and behold the upright; for the man of peace will have a posterity (end) (ach’arit). But transgressors will be altogether destroyed; the posterity (end) ([ach’arit]) of the wicked will be cut off. But the salvation of the righteous is from YHWH; He is their strength in time of trouble. YHWH helps them and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in Him.” - Psalm 37:35-40 (See also Psalm 73:12-17).

So, we should NOT be envious of the wicked and those who turn their back on God Almighty…Their lifestyles may seem to be rewarded with ‘riches and power’ and they may appear to float easily through life …BUT if we stop and think about it then we begin to understand exactly what their future holds and according to the Word of God - it isn’t bright! “There is a way which seems right to a man, and its end (ach’aritah) is the way of death. Even in laughter the heart may be in pain, and the end (ach’aritah) of joy may be grief.” - Proverbs 14:12-13 (See also Proverbs 16:25). Although the wicked would NOT see the end of God’s plan, it gives Him NO pleasure as our loving God is merciful and desires ALL be saved.

Sadly, the wicked of today have made ‘wealth and power’ their god …and in fact believe that they have replaced God …and worship the creation through “Climate Change” which has become their religion; “Who say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’ And to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’ For they have turned their back to Me, and not their face; But in the time of their trouble they will say, ‘Arise and save us.’”- Jeremiah 2:27. The wicked do NOT worship the God of Israel – Yahweh – Elohim - the God of the Bible …and persecute anyone who believes in Yeshua (Jesus Christ) who is the “Salvation” for ALL who love Him;

Today our generation is living in the times of; “running to and fro and knowledge increase” as TECHNOLOGY is expanding at a rate that it is almost difficult to keep up with! And, in a time where we could travel ‘to and fro’ across the world in a short time of hours and KNOWLEGE has increased to a level of NO return! If the discovery of the “printing press” 500 years ago literally “fanned the flames” that changed the trend and progress of mankind, bringing him “out of the darkness” through PROGRESS …then we have to say the “computer” is a monster looking us right in the face. Do you know why? Because we have approached the hour where the wealthy greedy supposed-to-be smart people calling themselves the world’s Elite will soon decide the future and claim that “coins and currency” are NO longer a proper way to negotiate the exchange of monetary values …just as the Bible warned us in Revelation 13 it would happen. For sure, we will soon see through the United Nations and Globalists - World Economic Forum (WEF) with their oligarchs of the New World Order Agenda 2030 that they are creating the instrument for the Antichrist and his forces everything at their disposal. 

It was from the West that the world embraced this monster that has today ‘puffed-up’ Big Tech and Big Pharm who will through A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) eventually fulfil Revelation 13... It crept out of Science into the Military Laboratories, out into Educational Institutions, out into world-wide media through Television and satellites into Space …and the Financial and Banking Institutions. Since very recent as March 2020only just 3 years ago, the world woke up to sudden G5 Towers that had ‘sprung up’ during Covid-19 plan-demic Lockdowns. Selah – pause and think – have you ever wondered why these towers had to be installed secretly…?

Today everything is run by technology and computers that have literally become a daily necessity for the ENTIRE world but, soon through A.I. …they WILL become a tracking and control device for humanity through the wicked plans of the world’s most wicked wealthy so-called Elites, UN, WHO and WEF and finally Antichrist.

As believers we MUST keep our lamps burning and be ready as we see where the world is heading in this hour; so, when it says in; Revelation 13; “…that the time would come when they could neither buy nor sell, except they wear a MARK or a NUMBER either in their hand or in their forehead” - that will be the “final stage” of this whole thing. A laser beam will pick up the number and the transaction will be consummated through the use of “a computer system” that shows every person's purchasing capability in a “Cashless Society!” It will probably be every person's choice whether they want the mark put their HAND or in their FOREHEAD. With the natural eye it will never be seen. It is put in there with some invisible substance, and only this bar line light will see it. Maranatha Yeshua – Jesus!

However, we must be wise to realise that it is already being used for some years in other areas of society… It is not just an overnight happening; for example, in animals, thoroughbreds are being given invisible tattoos of numbers or I.D. chips. Cattle, dogs, etc and all such like are being identified in this way. Thus, we can now see by this that these were only trial things. It lets us know that we are just a few years short of the time when it is going to be something that humanity WILL have to face.

What will ultimately cause this? It is the fact that as we get closer to that FINAL hour of time where God Yahweh and His Word the Bible has NOW finally been excluded from ALL of un-repented man's dealings so that Godliness, honesty, morality, integrity and common decency are NO longer values to be cherished and lawlessness abounds …then mankind WILL have some more sure way of preventing; thefts, frauds and counterfeiting etc …and so they WILL introduce the world to their Antichrist - "BEAST SYSTEM."

Therefore, the godless wealthy, power-hungry Elites are rapidly introducing their New World Order… and these Globalists have set their plans into motion for a Totalitarian - Population Control by 2030. They already have control of the liberal Media as well as the corrupt greedy World Leaders who are mere puppets of the WEF and presently using every dishonest way they can think of to; kill, steal, counterfeit, rob, destroy and abuse and they are using all kinds of modern Technology (Big Tech) and World Health (Big Pharm) to beat the law, reduce and control world population and the present world system! Many people will suffer immensely since freedoms of ALL will be taken away bit-by-bit!

Now Let’s look again at our current generation something with earth-shaking events and the year we are now living in 2023… Daniel warned us that there would come a time when the world would rush to an End of one Age and the beginning of another! God certainly has NOT left us without understanding of the times that we live in. We truly are in a pivotal year of 2023 and season of 2024. What most people tend to forget is that God has NEVER forgotten the Nation of Israel. God promised that He would bring back un-repentant Israel in a condition of un-belief of their Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) whom they still reject (except for Messianic Jews as the Congregations are growing in Israel).

Is it the “birth pains” (Matthew 24) our generation is experiencing and they are getting stronger by the day? If we have learnt anything from the past few years it has been this… peace is fragile! Well, we just have to look at Israel and the Middle East situation for a minute. It is no doubt becoming like a ticking time bomb. How long will God allow the earth and its inhabitants to destroy themselves before He intervenes? This is the question that many are asking, whether they believe in God or not. We do NOT know the answer, nor does anyone else. But what we do know is that today more than any other time in the history of man, events are occurring that foreshadow things to come – Just as our Bible warned it would be like in the Last Days!

Corrie Ten Boom recalled a childhood incident when she told her father, “I am afraid that I will never be strong enough to die as a martyr.” He said, “When you have to go on a journey, when do I give you the money for the fare - two weeks before?” “No, Daddy, on the day that I am leaving.” He answered; “Precisely! And our wise Father in Heaven knows when we are going to need things, too! When the time comes to die you will find the strength you need… just in time!” Years later, Corrie was imprisoned in Ravens Bruck, the infamous German prison camp where more than 50,000 women were killed including her own sister. She wrote, “It is necessary, when we prepare ourselves for the End-time… also to be prepared to die for Jesus!”

When Noah (Genesis 6) started building that weird looking boat - the Ark, that God commanded him to build …his neighbours probably laughed and ridiculed him saying; “This guy is really a pessimist.” And, since Noah was building the Ark on DRY land his neighbours were possibly laughing at what they believed were the efforts of a mad man. They really didn’t care what Noah and his family did because in their eyes to them they were just religious fanatics. The people of Noah’s time’ lives were so evil and self-centred that God’s warnings were ignored. One of the most vivid descriptions of total depravity is found in; Genesis 6:5; The Lord saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time.” In the days before the flood, people were looking out only for themselves until that FINAL hour when Noah and his family entered the Ark. When the flood came, the remaining people on earth had NO dry ground or boats to rescue them. With their last drowning breaths, it was simply too late to ask God for mercy. You see our Lord warned us that in the Last Days it will be like in the days of Noah, there will be mockers and scoffers and isn’t it just so today?

“Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the command to restore and to build Jerusalem, to Messiah the Prince, shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks. The street shall be built again, and the wall, even in times of affliction. And after sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself. And the people of the ruler who shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. And the end of it shall be with the flood, and ruins are determined, until the end shall be war.” Daniel 9:25-26

God’s Ark vs. Prideful man’s Titanic? The Makers of the Titanic boasted; “Not even God Himself can sink this ship!” On the 14^th April, 1912 the Titanic they thought was “unsinkable” perished in the “physical darkness.” Just before midnight the Titanic hit the iceberg. Less than three hours later the pinnacle of man’s accomplishments lay in ruins 2½ miles below on the ocean floor and 2/3 of those onboard perished. But just like the Titanic, the world ignores the warnings and continues ahead in darkness! The world today is supposedly an “enlightened” world. But it, too, will falter because our world is actually in “spiritual darkness” and can’t see the danger that lies ahead!

Bible Prophecy tells us that because they’re in darkness, they won’t anticipate the “spiritual iceberg” that the world is on a collision course with. For many, life will seem normal, like the calm waters Titanic was in on that night. But then just like that fateful night SUDDEN disaster WILL strike (Matthew 24:36-39; Luke 21:34-35). When the world does hit this “spiritual iceberg,” the tragedy WILL be much worse than the Titanic. It will be the worst catastrophe mankind has ever known (Matthew 24:21/22). This “spiritual iceberg” will be the Great Tribulation. When the Tribulation starts, the world as we know it will be torn apart. It will take 3½ years for this tragic time to be over. But unlike Titanic, not even a third will survive. And, unless God intervenes, every single living person will die!

You see, only a few escaped in lifeboats that tragic April night when the Titanic sunk. And during the coming Great Tribulation, only a relatively few will make it into spiritual lifeboats. Yeshua (Jesus) tells us to pray that we can be among those accounted worthy to ESCAPE (Luke 21:36). The Bible clearly shows that those God will help are those who are troubled by the world’s evil ways, keep His commandments and are children of light (Ezekiel 9:4; 1 John 5:2-3; Ephesians 5:8, 11, 14).

The Rapture or Harpazo could NOT have happened before 1948 until God had brought the Jews back to Israel - their land and Nation! Israel is back in their land; “for a time such as this” and just as He Promised it would happen in ONE DAY…and so the re-birth happened. We truly are the privileged generation; Isaiah 66:8; “Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.” Israel was born in ONE day on May 14, 1948! NO other Nation has ever been resurrected in such a manner and particularly not in their ancient location. US President Truman’s recognizing Israel was announced to the world only just 11 minutes after Israeli PM David Ben-Gurion declared the Nation’s Independence after 2,000 years has passed!

The next part of God’s Salvation plan is the Rapture – Harpazo or “catching away” of true believers… followed by a time of the; 7-Years Great Tribulation such as the world has never seen (Zachariah 13:8-9) …BUT it will also be a time and result in Repentance and Salvation of 1/3 of Israel! You may say how is that going to happen? Let’s look again to see how that will all fit into God’s Prophetic Time-piece. If we look at the Year 70AD when Jerusalem was destroyed and add 1,960AD years brings us to the year 2030AD. Why is that important? 1,960 years divided by (7X7) 49 = 40 Jubilee Cycles.

The Ezekiel 4 Prophecy that began in 30AD at the time of our Lord’s Crucifixion has blossomed. (God in His mercy allowed Israel 40-Years for belief and repentance between 30AD-70AD). Ezekiel was commanded by God (Ezekiel 4:4-5) to lie 390-Years on his LEFT side (House of Israel – Northern Kingdom) and 40-Years on his RIGHT side (Judah – Southern Kingdom). 1 day for a year! 

The period of iniquity given to Israel = 390 Years so when does the time for repentance begin? (Ezekiel 4:1-5) In 701BC the Assyrians laid siege to Jerusalem but the Lord God placed “a wall of iron around the city” that it would not be destroyed. In 586BC the siege of Jerusalem by the Babylonians. The “sign” given to Judah (Ezekiel 4:6-8) was the siege of Jerusalem 70AD on the 9^th AV by the Romans but this time the Lord allowed it to be destroyed as God did NOT put “a wall of iron around the city!” 701BC until 70AD = 770 Years apart where both Houses of Israel judged as God let us know exactly when that judgement would come to an end.

As we discovered from the time Yeshua (Jesus) went to the Cross in; 30AD until 70AD when the Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed = 40 Years. 390 years X 7 = 2,730 years. (First witness) Now if we go back 2,730 years and minus 701 from this it takes us to the Biblical year 2029/30. God is graciously telling us in advance before it happens that we might be humbled and be ready as believers for His Return and so that Israel might repent and believe!

What happens when we multiply 49 Jubilee Cycles X40? (The Hebrew number 40 is the number of testing). When we are multiplying 40 by 49 which represents the years BEFORE the JUBILEE. 49X40=1960 and so if we add 70AD brings us to the year 2030! (Second Witness) Remember that the first Shemitah Year in the modern State of Israel only began 1951–1952 and so we are currently in a Jubilee Year - 2022/23 …and the next Biblical Jubilee Year is in 2030/31. Could 2031 – the next Jubilee Year - be the year that Israel enters into the long-promised REST of God? Will the Biblical Weekly Cycle of 6 days of LABOUR and the 7^th day of REST to end 6,000 years and begin the 1,000-Yyear = 7^th Year in which Yeshua WILL Rule and Reign from Jerusalem …and finally conclude the unbelief of Israel? 30AD to 2030 = 2,000-Years? Time will tell!

What does that signal to us? That something amazing is going to happen to ISRAEL in the year 2030! Could this just be that the two houses ISRAEL and JUDAH would become one again? Keeping in mind that this has NEVER been so in past history at any given time? The miracle is that God in His mercy has restored the Northern Tribe to Israel as we have seen that they have been brought back “un-repented” and “un-believing” and are back in the land united since the time of King Solomon who was the LAST king to rule over a united Israel. “For the seed shall be prosperous, the vine shall give its fruit, the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew I (GOD) will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these.” – Zechariah 8:12.

The Jews have returned to their land (not all but only a remnant) and have become ONE Israel for the first time in over 2,700 years – another Miracle of God! They have been brought back to Israel - for a time to “repent and believe” before the FINAL time of repentance is over …and to be a witness to the world that God has kept His Promise and thus every Prophecy WILL be fulfilled! The Bible is the true Word of God! The Prophet Zechariah tells us that 1/3 of Israel (remnant) will be saved! Could this mean that they (the Houses of Israel and Judah) become ONE and enter into the SABBATH REST in the JUBILEE YEAR 2031 on the exact year that will begin the next dispensational countdown? That will only conclude after 1,000 Years of Yeshua Ha’Mashiach RULE and REIGN …and complete 7,000 years.

What about the true believers – the Church and Body of Christ? It looks good as we are about to be changed and lifted up “in a blink of an eye!” Could it be that we are now in the beginning of “birth-pains” growing stronger by the day …since we are literally just months away from 2030AD? And, could we be closing in on the time where “unrepentant Israel” finally acknowledges Yeshua Ha’Mashiach as their Messiah? And, that Daniel’s 70^th Week – “Time of Jacob’s Trouble” is literally just around the corner? You see Prophecy proves beyond a shadow of doubt that God’s purpose for the 7-Year Tribulation is for the SALVATION of ALL believing Israel –true believers Jew and Gentile!

God’s Word is true! He IS watching to see how the nations are treating His people – Israel. God will have mercy on Israel through Gentile believers acting as mediators towards them! This is one of the most amazing revelations ever given to the Church – an opportunity to do something that carries the highest priority in the heart of God. Yet, sadly, so few have seen the potential and the rewards of serving God in this manner - as agents of mercy to Israel and the Jewish people! Israel was and still is despised today and a despised nation continually turning away from God BUT nothing ever altered the purpose of God for that nation. The despised element is always a noticeable element in the purpose of God. When the Saviour of the world came, He came of that despised nation; like Israel… He Himself was; “despised and rejected by men,” …and there is that despised element; “…things that are despised God has chosen,” 1 Corinthians 1:28. Now, more than at any time is the time to support Israel and the Jewish people - the Lord’s Brethren! We are witnessing the nations and people turning their backs on Israel. Thank you for your prayers and generous financial support especially during these very difficult times. With “lockdown” and difficult “recovery” still lying ahead we ARE reminded that the Wuhan Corona Virus has caused many dire needs and continue to increase here in Israel upon the already most vulnerable! Once again – Thank you!

We hope that you enjoy and become more informed by our work. We serve an awesome God and we are humbled by this opportunity to bring you this information. With Shalom to you and your family always,
