Temple-MountIn Christian theology, eschatology is the study of “last things.” Christians believe that Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah will return, a doctrine called the second advent. However, there is much disagreement about what this advent will mean for Israel.

Some Christian theologians believe that when Yeshua returns, there will be the “general resurrection and judgment” followed by the eternal state in the new heavens and the new earth. They do not believe that the Tanakh passages about the glorious future promised to the nation of Israel can be taken in their plain, literal sense; there is no national or territorial future for Israel outside “the church.”

Others believe that when Yeshua returns, He will establish the Messianic kingdom over the whole earth, reigning from the city of Jerusalem on the throne of David in a regathered and reestablished nation of Israel.

David Baron (1857-1926) was born in Russia to Jewish parents. After studying Hebrew and Talmud in Yeshiva, he immigrated to Hull, England, where he accepted Yeshua (Jesus) as HaMeshiach Yisrael. After working with several missions to the Jews, he and C. A. Schönberger in 1893 founded the Hebrew Christian Testimony to Israel, a Jewish missionary organization in London.

The Times of Israel: Erdogan is visiting Washington just days after two car bombs in Turkey killed dozens in the deadliest terrorist attack there in years. Turkish authorities have blamed Syrian intelligence, and Erdogan has been calling for more aggressive steps to topple Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government. But the Obama administration remains reluctant to take the kind of action that Turkey would like to see, including establishing a no-fly zone in Syria.”

Opinion: For Bible prophecy students, particularly students of Ezekiel 38-39, this is fascinating to watch.

For now, it appears that President Obama and Prime Minister Erdogan are on the same page when it come to Israel and Syria. Last month the president convinced PM Netanyahu to apologize to Turkey for the 2010 Flotilla incident, which boosted Erdogan’s prestige in the Muslim world, especially since Turkey was the guilty party.

But Ezekiel 38:6-8 tells us that Turkey, represented by Gomer from the house of Beth Togarmah, will be in league with Russia and Iran at some time in the future when Israel is living in peace and safety.

If the Syria mess continues to escalate and Erdogan become disenchanted with Obama’s constant dithering on what course of action to take, watch Turkey move to a new alliance.

Israel My Glory Magazine, Steve Herzig: “How often have seen a household appliance create an international commotion. Apparently, when an Israeli company manufactures it, people become agitated.

The company is traded on NASDAQ; and the soda maker is sold in 55,000 stores – including Bed Bath & Beyond, Costco, Walmart, Target  and Macy’s – in 43 countries.

One of it’s factories is located in Mishor Adumim an industrial park in Ma’aleh Adumim, located less than15 minutes from West Jerusalem. Although some consider the area ‘occupied territory,’ Ma’aleh Adumim is actually located in Area C, which according to the Oslo Accords is considered “disputed territory.” The documents signed by Israel and the Palestinian Authority leave the area under Israel’s control until a final settlement can be reached.

SodaStream would seem like the last company to offend anybody. It employs 500 West Bank Palestinians, 400 Arab Israelis and 200 Israeli Jews and foreign workers (Including African refugees).”

Opinion: The interfaith boycott coalition supported by Imam Zaid Shakir sees it differently. A website created by the Muslim American Society an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood said this: “The fact that a worker goes to work every day does not indicate that it is a good thing.”

And there you go. The enemies of God’s chosen are the enemy of God. It does not matter what the Israelis say or do. To the Muslim Brotherhood, it only matters that there are no more Israelis.

Daniel 9:27 tells of a peacemaker who will arrive on the scene and confirm a peace or covenant with Israel and her enemies for 1 week. Week in Hebrew (Shabua) is 7 years. Notice the word confirm, meaning that a previously drafted peace treaty would be utilized. The 7 year Oslo Accords, with modifications, originally drafted in 1993 just might do the trick.

The peacemaker is anti-Christ and since the Church will have been raptured (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) to the Lord, there will be few left to warn an unbelieving world.
