The coming Earthquake on the Mt. of Olive’s
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
When Messiah Yeshua plants His feet there.
This earthquake in India and the recent one in Turkey and even the one in South America are some of the worse I can ever remember hearing about. The highest estimates for India is now over 100,000 dead. There is no way anyone can make be believe we are not seeing end time prophecy and not to mention the judgement of God Almighty. Many so-called Prophets are saying that the earthquake on the Mount of Olive mentioned in Zech. 14:4 will cause the Mediterranean Sea to run into the Dead Sea. But that is not what the Word says. I have been working with some numbers to bring this truth home to you. First lets read Zechariah 14:4. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and towards the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half toward the south. My map says that the Mount of Olives is 782 Meters high that is around 2600 feet above Sea Level. That means that the "cleave" mentioned in the above Scripture would have to be at least 2600 feet deep. And you would have to add at least another 50 feet to that for water to flow from the Mediterranean Sea to Dead Sea and it’s 1300 feet below sea level (the lowest place on earth). Add to that the fact that this valley will have to run from Jerusalem to the Med. Sea, around 65 Km. Then from Jerusalem to the Dead Sea, another 45 Km. We would have a valley caused by an earthquake that is 2650 feet deep, and 110 Km. long.There has never been anything like this ever happen on earth in the history of mankind. I don’t believe there has ever been anything like it since creation. And if this was to happen it would most likely kill every living creature within hundreds of miles. But lets now read verse: 8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them towards the former sea, (Mediterranean) and half of them towards the hinder sea: (Dead Sea) in summer and in winter shall it be.
Now we can see quiet easily what is going to happen, the Messiah "Yeshua" on His return, will plant His feet on the Mount of Olives, and there will be an earthquake, it will cause the Mount of Olive’s to split even up to the Temple Mount. With the Mount of Olive’s split water will be able to easily run to the Dead Sea, as it already runs to the Dead Sea through the Kidron Valley. This can be seen at the Greek Monastery of Mar Saba near Bet Sahur. With this water running from the Temple Mount it would have no problem finding its way to the Soreq River that runs near Bet Shemesh and into the Mediterranean Sea.
So there will be a terrible earthquake, but not the one so many are prophesying will happen. And while I am at it, the water is not running from the Temple Mount today, I have proven that and even made a video on the subject. But you can be sure it will and it will be a river, not a single drop of water on somebody’s head from a sewage leak.
We find more Scripture on this subject in Ezekiel 47:1-12. Verse :1 says the water will come out from under the house. In reference to the Temple Mount or the House of God. Verse:8 Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea; which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed. (The dead waters of the Dead Sea will be healed) The next verse tells us that there will be many fish. And in verse :10 we see that Fishermen will do very well fishing there.
So the two seas will not run together, this will be fresh water and it will come from the Temple Mount, and when you read Ezekiel 47 you will see that it is no little stream it is a river.
Sharon won, and Arafat is happy. Ariel Sharon won and Yasser Arafat is happy he did, but you won’t hear that on the news. The reason he is so happy is simple, he was scared to death he’d go the way of Saddat and Begin, who were both assassinated by the extreme elements in their midst, for trying to make peace. Of course there are other reason as well. He knows full well that he cannot handle a State, after all he is a terrorist not a statesman. The whole idea of Olso was to make Yasser Arafat into a Statesman, to make him so busy taking care of "his people" that he wouldn’t have time for terrorism. Now Oslo is dead and Arafat is trying to stay alive at any cost.
Arafat knows no other way to survive except to kill children, Jewish or Arabic it makes no difference to him. In fact, right now and all through last night the Palestinians have been shooting into a Jewish Neighborhood "Pisgat Ze’ev" Those who are shooting know full well that one of their targets was a Kindergarten full of 4 and 5 year old children. I don’t think you will hear that on CNN either. Thank God all the children were taken out in time to save them. You can also be sure that attacks are being carried out even at this very moment, with the approval of Yasser Arafat.
Hebron where our son is stationed in the IDF, Ramallah, Gaza, and Nablus are all under heavy Palestinian fire right now. I don’t know about you, but this sure sounds like war to me. The bomb that exploded in the heart of Jerusalem yesterday was a large bomb and it was a miracle no one was killed. There was one IDF Soldier wounded this morning near the Egyptian border south of Gaza, he is in the Hospital under stable condition. We have not got any numbers of deaths or injuries yet today, but from what I know they may well be very high.
The U.S. Army who were stationed in Germany and the U.S. Navy who were stationed offshore in the Med. have come to Israel with the Patriot Missiles for a joint exercise with Israel. That is not an exercise if you ask me, it is more of a preparation for war.
The International News seems to be upset with the Election here in Israel. Yet I never hear about the fact, that the Palestinians have no elections. And you can be sure there are tens of thousands of Palestinians who would like to get rid of Arafat, but it would cost them their life to say so. Yet you never hear that on CNN either.
It seems to be obvious that things are about to get much worse here in Israel, and there is no other word for it than war. Please pray for Joel, and for this ministry. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray for all of Israel if you would. Shalom Jerry Golden Yarmulke known in Israel as a Kippah
Symbol of Jewish piety has been the wearing of the Head-Cap known as the Kippah or Yarmulke. The Orthodox Jewish men wear it as a sign of their reverence before God. Many Jews outside of Israel wear it to identify with Israel and the Jewish people. It is also a custom among many Messianic Jews.
Some "Christians" have raised objections to the wearing of the Kippah on the basis of Scripture. Causing confusion to many Messianic Jews, for they were told they could keep their Jewish identity when accepting the Messiah Yeshua. That they dodn’t become any less Jewish but in fact, become better Jews by accepting their Messiah. With Scripture being our ultimate authority, we should look deeper into what it actually says on this matter.
I Corinthians 11:4-15 is the Scripture in question, in this Scripture Paul is making an argument for the distinction between the sexes, based upon the creation order. He speaks of hair length as a creation order. Then goes on to speak of head covering as another reflection of this order. The Kippah was not a fashion at the time Paul wrote this passage, but we still need to see if the passage has relevance to this issue.
V:4-15 Every man praying or "prophesying" having his head covered, dishonoreth his head. But every women that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoreth her head. : for that is even all one as if she were shaven. For if the women be not covered ,let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the women is the glory of the man. For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man. For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels. Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord. For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God. Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered? Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him. But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
As we read this Scripture the first thing we find is that all legalistic religions have inconsistencies. These same people who say this Scripture says a man cannot wear a Kippah, never say that a women must cover her head. In fact, some go a step further and the women who have long hear put it up in a bun on the top of their heads.
To understand this or any other Scripture we must first understand its cultural context as well as the original historical setting. (This is why it is so important to understand the Jewishness of Yeshua to understand His Words) This scripture of I Corinthians 11: 4-15 covers a lot of subjects, having to do with the culture and history relating to male and female distinctions, including style of dress and grooming. Possibly the first question we should be asking is what Paul meant by the veil and headcovering and its relationship to the length of hair. There is a lot of evidence in this Scripture that Paul is not talking about a Kippah or Yarmulke. But is is very clear that he is speaking about a particular kind of veil, a large veil that would cover all of a women’s "long" hair. The woman’s hair was considered her glory, considered to be beautiful and attractive while covering her head. It was not allowed to hang loose, that was indicative of a loose woman.
The Tenach (Old Testament) is clear on this point. Isaiah 3:17, Numbers 5:18. The Jewish law is so strong on this that if a women walked bear headed after marriage her husband could divorce her on that one point.
So after reading and examining the evidence of this Scripture we can but come to one conclusion; Paul is not talking about a Kippah in fact, he had never seen one. What we must consider above all else is what the Biblical teacher was trying to teach, and not apply our own interpretation to it. The Kippah or Yarmulke is permitted, and I can find neither a reason to wear one or a reason not to wear one in the Scripture. The head cover of Paul’s day had absolutely no relationship to today’s Kippah.
Whose Holy Land? & Whose Temple Mount?
FIRST ISRAEL Israel became a nation 3313 years ago, on the year BCE 1312, that is 2000 years before anyone ever heard of Islam. The word Palestine came from the word Philistine, which was a name given to the Land of Israel by the Romans in an attempt to obliterate the Jewish connection to Zion. We Jews have had a continuous presence in the Land of Israel for over 3000 years.
Gen. 17:7-8
And I will establish My covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generation for an everlasting covenant to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee. And I will give to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the Land in which thou dost sojourn, ALL THE LAND OF CANAAN, FOR AN EVERLASTING POSSESSION, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD.
Gen. 35:10,12
And God said unto him, thy name is Jacob; thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name, and He called his name Israel. And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it AND TO THY SEED AFTER THEE WILL I GIVE THE LAND.
Leviticus 25:23
THE LAND SHAL NOT BE SOLD FOR EVER: for the land is mine, for ye are Strangers and sojourners with me.
II Kings 21:7
The Lord said to David and Solomon his son, in this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all My tribes of Israel, will I put My name on for ever.
Psalms 137:5-6
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
In these troubling days I read this one on a regular basis.
Isaiah 31:4-5
For thus has the Lord spoken to me, like the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them; so shall the LORD OF HOSTS COME DOWN TO FIGHT FOR MOUNT ZION, and for its hill. As birds flying, so will the LORD OF HOST DEFEND JERUSALEM; HE WILL DEFEND AND DELIVER IT; and passing over it he will preserve it.
The Tenach (Old Testament) mentions Jerusalem over 700 times. The Koran (The Moslem bible) never mentions Jerusalem once. The Koran mentions Mecca and Medina hundreds of times. There has never been a Palestine as an entity under the control of Palestinians. There is no known Palestinian culture, or a Palestinian language. Palestinians are Arabs and the Arabs control over 99% of the Land Mass of the Middle East. Israel is but one tenth of 1 per cent of the Land Mass.
THE TEMPLE MOUNT This is the ancient site of the two Temples. This is the Holiest site for the entire Jewish people. This is the place were the Holy of Holies rested. Where the Ark of the Covenant stood, the place of atonement. This is where the light of God "Shechina Glory" shone in all His glory. This is what the Devil whats, to steal from the people of God in the last days. He is a defeated liar and he will not succeed.
I will not print all the Scriptures confirming who this Land was given to. But I will give you a few references to look up for your self. I Kings 9:1-3, Gen. 22:1-2, Ex. 6:4, Ex. 6:8, Jer. 32:37, 40-41, Zech. 8:1-3, Zech. 8:7-8, Zech. 1:14-17, Joel 4:1-2, Amos 9:14-15, Zech. 12:7-9
There are many more in fact, we could cover this page with them. It’s time for the people of God the world over to stand up for Israel and the Jewish people, and tell these Islamic devils to stop, that we are tired of the media lies and deceptions.
War is very near We have been sent here to be a service to God’s people, I say we, because you too must listen to that small still voice, for the Golden’s without the Body we have been joined together with can do nothing. This is a Body Ministry, and it is time to sacrifice. God has asked the Golden’s to give everything to Him, what has He asked you to sacrifice? War is very near and I pray we will be the witness we have been sent here to be. We still have time to make preparations.
