I am STILL very surprised that so many Christians and churches don't know or understand the important biblical truth about Israel and Jerusalem! The prophecy and promise of Genesis 12:3 is still valid, of course, and Zechariah 2:8 ought to be common knowledge-- as close as it is! "For thus saith the Lord of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye." Would any sensible human being really want to stick their dirty finger in GOD's EYE BALL ?? Talk about big time WRATH and ANGER!
Perhaps MOST of the Church is asleep, or too busy working to stay alive in this earthly 'rat race.' But some surveys show that 70% of Americans 'consider' themselves to be Christians, and if that is so, they must bear what is called a 'community responsibility' for allowing their "leaders" to abandon, hurt, put pressure, on ISRAEL, the apple of God's eye! This all means that perhaps many who sit in churches on Sunday may not be Raptured up. You be the judge-- but the scriptures are clear in the following article. But I have been harping on this subject for many months-- but get no real serious comments or emails. Either you understand and support this, or you don't!
My circle of Christian friends, and the writers of Bible Prophecies, believe that Israel will have to protect herself from all her hostile neighbors who continue to lobe rockets, mortars and murder across the border, at some point. Scripture says that the city of Damascus will be leveled as the enemy of Israel, and the Jews will re-claim all the land stolen from them by the Muslim nations... the land belongs to Israel-- given to them by GOD! I can hardly wait because we believe the Rapture should soon follow that main event! Are YOU ready?
I am still in shock that one of my best friends and fellow Army aviator/ gunner/ crew chief in Vietnam- 240th AHC, Jim Hood [RobinHood] sent me an expensive Scofield Study bible in the mail today! He said it will make me smart... and I just love it already! Thanks, Bro. Jim. God bless you and your family, who live in SC. Prayers too for another helicopter door gunner brother, Walter E. Weber, who had heart related complications and surgery recently in NC. He is having a hard time and real pain. So many of our good combat troops went over to Vietnam with mixed ideas, not knowing the Lord or the Bible, but now many of us DO! What a horrible pity when a soldier is facing death every day-- still not knowing for sure whee he will go if he gets killed on that 'field of honor.' Jim Hood and I both know that God had a special reason for saving us from death some 40 years ago-- and it's NOT because we were "good !" I was breaking most of the rules all the time... but now I see the light. Jim respects my ministry to the combat Veterans all over, including the Vets at the local VA hospital... handing out free bibles and tracts. I figure that it's the least I can do for the Lord. God bless Jim and Walter, and my wife, Sharon.
Warm Regards,
Tom

By Terry James Rapture Ready Forewarning of the fate that the nations of earth face leaps from Bible prophecy. Those who make Jerusalem and Israel the object of hatred will pay a terrible price. And make no mistake, the city and nation (Jewish people) are inextricably linked:“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut *********************************************************** and:
