Armstrong was a God-send to restore long lost truths; he stood against traditional Christianity's error and taught the plain truth of the Bible; restored our Hebrew roots; warned world leaders about a German-dominated European Union and offered the hope and comfort of Christ's return to save us from its nuclear holocaust; Herbert W. Armstrong died, full of faith and wisdom, leaving a lasting impression on those who continue the quest for God's Kingdom.David Ben-Arielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02271443642557427428noreply@blogger.comBlogger1907125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26274704.post-60083553268065559992011-03-01T08:55:00.001-08:002011-03-01T08:55:12.447-08:00Wars and rumors of wars<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="" style="background-color: white; border: 1px solid rgb(153, 153, 153); font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; width: 600px;"><tbody>

While this movement will ultimately contribute to fulfilling prophecies such as Isaiah 47:8-9 and Revelation 17:2-5, an aspect of this rejuvenated "fervent missionary movement" already affects billions. This is the growing emphasis on Sunday observance. <a href="http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=EO6o3&m=1ax_SD21fbqwrj&b=9UbETGcG.rEYHWz1YUubJA" style="color: #336699; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Read more <img align="middle" alt="Read More" border="0" class="emptyExternalImage" height="12" src="http://mail.buckeye-express.com/eonapps/images/grayfiller.gif" width="12" /></a></div></div>David Ben-Arielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02271443642557427428noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26274704.post-71020129356852789462011-02-10T17:20:00.001-08:002011-02-10T17:20:30.273-08:00Beyond Babylon<a href="http://www.publishamerica.com/greetingcardpro/createcard1.asp?PostCardID=7004" style="font-family: verdana;"><img border="0" src="http://www.publishamerica.com/shopping/images/1413750575.jpg" /></a><br />

</span><a href="http://beyondbabylon.blogspot.com/2006/11/beyond-babylon-europes-rise-and-fall.html" style="font-family: verdana;">Introduction</a><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />

<br />
The DEVASTATION unleashed against America and her British allies was without precedent. Destruction was everywhere and a body count impossible. The catastrophe was beyond calculation.<br />
<br />
Europe - gripped with a messianic furor - justified this mass destruction of the body to "save the soul." Besides, they have the blessing of the pope. His white robes are stained with the blood of many martyrs.<br />
<br />

<br />
Why are we in mortal danger? Why will the American, British and Jewish people SUFFER national defeat? How could Europe ever turn against us?<br />
<br />
<b>Beyond Babylon<br />
</b></span><a href="http://beyondbabylon.blogspot.com/2006/11/beyond-babylon-europes-rise-and-fall_10.html" style="font-family: verdana;">Chapter 3</a><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />

<br />
As global tensions increase, and threats of confrontation escalate, we might very well wonder whether humanity will survive. <i>Unless</i> there’s a GOD to intervene, we have a bleak future indeed: a DEAD PLANET! Will earth become a nuclear fireball? Will charred bones - aftermath of unleashed atomic fires - and the smoldering ruins of a suicidal civilization be all that’s left?<br />
<br />
<b>Beyond Babylon<br />
</b></span><a href="http://beyondbabylon.blogspot.com/2007/01/beyond-babylon-europes-rise-and-fall.html" style="font-family: verdana;">Chapter 4</a><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />

<br />
Whenever our behavior gets out of control, <i>God lets us loose control! </i>When we’re held hostage to bad habits, and refuse to let them go, we go into captivity! A national lack of discipline results in God sending corrective punishment! Then we wake up and get with it, and beg God to save us. The whole purpose is to bring us to our knees and senses.<br />
<br />
<b>Beyond Babylon<br />
</b></span><a href="http://beyondbabylon.blogspot.com/2007/03/beyond-babylon-europes-rise-and-fall.html" style="font-family: verdana;">Chapter 5</a><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />

<br />
What’s going to happen to Europe? We know what’s going to happen to the American and British peoples, as well as to our Jewish brethren. The coming WORLD CRISIS is prophesied to fall especially hard on them. Why?<br />
<br />
<b>Beyond Babylon<br />
</b></span><a href="http://beyondbabylon.blogspot.com/2007/04/beyond-babylon-europes-rise-and-fall.html" style="font-family: verdana;">Chapter 6</a><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />
</span><a href="http://beyondbabylon.blogspot.com/2007/04/beyond-babylon-europes-rise-and-fall.html" style="font-family: verdana;">Jesus and the Jews</a><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />
<br />
Why don't the Jews accept Jesus?" I've been asked that so many times. My usual reply? "Why haven't the Christians?" At least the Jews are waiting for the proper imperial restoration. The Messiah's coming to sit on DAVID'S THRONE - not Caesar's or "St. Peter's." The Anointed One's going to rule from JERUSALEM - not Rome!<br />
<br />
<b>Beyond Babylon<br />

<br />
Israel's about to host the greatest showdown on earth! A spiritual conflict of interests will create such a scene in Jerusalem that the whole world will watch! Zion will be an arena of prophets and sorcerers, warriors and kings! The forces of good and evil are set to duel: the sons of light will battle the sons of darkness, and truth will confront error head-on!<br />

<br />
<b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Jeremiah 10</span></b><br />
1 Hear the word which the LORD speaks to you, O house of Israel.<br />
2 Thus says the LORD: <br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Do not learn the way of the Gentiles</span></b>; <br />
Do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven, <br />
For the Gentiles are dismayed at them. <br />
3 For the <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">customs</span></b> of the peoples are futile; <br />
For one cuts a tree from the forest, <br />
The work of the hands of the workman, with the ax. <br />
4 They decorate it with silver and gold; <br />
They fasten it with nails and hammers <br />
So that it will not topple. <br />
5 They are upright, like a palm tree, <br />
And they cannot speak; <br />
They must be carried, <br />
Because they cannot go by themselves.<br />
Do not be afraid of them, <br />
For they cannot do evil, <br />
Nor can they do any good. <br />
6 Inasmuch as there is none like You, O LORD <br />
(You are great, and Your name is great in might), <br />
7 Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? <br />
For this is Your rightful due. <br />
For among all the wise men of the nations, <br />
And in all their kingdoms, <br />
There is none like You. <br />
8 But they are altogether dull-hearted and foolish; <br />
A wooden idol is a worthless doctrine. <br />
9 Silver is beaten into plates; <br />
It is brought from Tarshish, <br />
And gold from Uphaz, <br />
The work of the craftsman <br />
And of the hands of the metalsmith; <br />
Blue and purple are their clothing; <br />
They are all the work of skillful men.<br />
10 But the LORD is the true God; <br />
He is the living God and the everlasting King. <br />
At His wrath the earth will tremble, <br />
And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation. <br />
<br />
Jeremiah 10 condemns idolatry, both in the letter and in the spirit, whether a physical idol or an idolatrous tradition based upon <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">HEATHEN CUSTOMS</span></b> like the "Christmas tree" that history clearly exposes as pagan in origin. Those who adorn their Christmas trees and remain in denial about its pagan origin, who play deaf, dumb and blind to the facts, who attempt to dismiss or downplay how it's a heathen custom, are <i><span style="font-style: italic;">living a lie</span></i> and shamefully reject the clear commandments of God that speak against such spiritual adultery, mixing and matching pagan error with biblical truth, and will suffer the consequences for being so dishonest and deceitful. <br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Pagan holidays like Christmas and pagan customs like Christmas trees are both abominations to God.</span></b> True Christians shun both, we avoid them like the plague, because we love God more than idolatrous traditions of apostate men!<br />

This <strong>common sense</strong>, this salt (preserving knowledge and irritating wounds but offering healing in the process) and light (exposing darkness), was once known and continues to be faithfully taught by those who haven't become friends with this world and enemies of God. <br />
<br />
<b>James 4:4</b><br />
4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.<br />

<div align="left">"… Equality! Fudge! How long in this government of God, great enough to make and maintain this universe, shall there continue to be knaves to vend and fools to gulp so low a piece of demagoguism as this?"<br />

</div><div align="left">"Bluebirds like to be together, eagles hang out with eagles, sparrows stick with sparrows, buzzards go with buzzards. They're all birds, but they go with their own."<br />
- <strong>Muhammad Ali </strong>(Cassius Clay) <br />

</div>Two witnesses against interracial marriage that would destroy diversity and commit genocide against the distinct races: <br />
<br />
<b>Deuteronomy 32:8</b> <br />
8 When the Most High <em>divided</em> their inheritance to the nations, When He <em>separated</em> the sons of Adam [even though we're all family], He set the <em>boundaries</em> [borders we're to respect and not trespass] of the peoples According to the number of the children of Israel [everything in the ethnocentric Bible - with its focus on the family of Jacob - centers around Israel, nationally, internationally]<wbr></wbr>. <br />
<br />
<b>Acts 17:26</b> <br />
26 And [although] He [God] has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth [we're all human]... [yet He] has determined their preappointed times and the <em>boundaries</em> [sinners don't want to have rules and borders they're commanded not to cross] of their dwellings... <br />
<br />
<br />
"This world says that the cause of racial problems is segregation, when in fact the opposite is the case...The Supreme Court of the USA, without God's wisdom, but has human 'wisdom', wants to mix the races." <br />

Jewish guards prevent Christians and Jews from exercising their religious right to pray on the Temple Mount? That's right! Only Muslims have unlimited access to Judaism's most holy site. Only the Koran is permitted within. The Tanach (Jewish Scripture, known to much of the world as the "Old Testament") and Christian Scriptures (the New Testament) are forbidden. Yet Israel claims to respect the religious rights of all people.<br />

Will an EARTHQUAKE shake Israel to its foundations and rock the world? Would the destruction of the Western/Wailing Wall and the demolition of the "Dome of the Rock" and Al-Aksa mosques—by an ACT OF GOD—serve further notice that it's time to build the Temple?<br />

"And let them make me a Sanctuary that I may dwell among them" (Ex. 25:8). This holy command in the Scriptures seems clear enough, so what's the problem? Why has Israel tolerated Jerusalem’s "abomination of desolation" — a Temple Mount without a Temple? Why haven't the religious leaders encouraged the people to do what they can in fulfilling this mitzva?<br />

<big><span style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.davidbenariel.org/third-temple/issue-temple-mount.htm">The Issue of the Temple Mount</a></span></big>The common knowledge of our time is that the vast majority of Rabbis of this generation have prohibited the Jewish people from entering the Temple Mount (Har HaBayit), the holiest site in Judaism. The Temple Mount is the site of where the Beit HaMikdash (the Jewish Temple) once stood and the place where the Moslems have erected one mosque, the al-Aqsa and a site of pilgrimage, the Dome of the Rock.<br />

Something's missing. Rome is synonymous with the Vatican, Mecca with the Kaaba, and Jerusalem's known for its Western Wall. But <i>why</i> should we stand before the wall, letting it obstruct our vision, when we could be praying in a Temple? Why should Jews continue to bow before an illegitimate Gentile decree that tells them where to pray? (Isaiah 10:1).<br />

<span style="color: #231f20; font-family: verdana;">Gershon Salomon warned Israel and its leadership that as long as the shameful situation on the Temple Mount continues, and as long as they do not obey the call of G-d, peace will not come to the land. The enemies of Israel will continue to desire her land and will pressure those in power to divide it. Obedience to the call of G-d will bring peace, all of Israel's enemies will be removed and no one will wish to divide or desire the land.</span><br />

When Gerald Flurry wasn't anything in his own sight or mind God used him and now, unfortunately, it appears to have gone to his head, all the new revelation (simply a deeper understanding of some things), and he forgets that all truth is from and belongs to GOD and that God can use a donkey to deliver it (1 Cor. 4:7). Gerald Flurry has become so swollen in his own imagination that he fails to see that he is the leader of LAODICEA! He knows what warning God is giving the Laodiceans, of which he is chief! He had better heed his own words...<br />

The Work of God must go forward. The only work that's left to do now is focus on the NATIONAL LEVEL. We must get out God's ultimatum and fast! Europe is on the rise and Jerusalem is getting international attention (Zech. 14:2). Soon God's two witnesses will rise and shine in a world of darkness (Isa. 60:1-2). God's about to restore His lamp to the Middle East! (Rev. 11:3; 1 Kgs. 11:36; Amos 9:11; Zech. 12:8).<br />

We know that certain prophecies were not to be fulfilled until these "last days." Therefore their sealed messages weren't to break their silence until the appointed time (Dan. 12:9).

Let’s see to it that Philadelphia Church of God (Judah) doesn’t go the way of the Worldwide Church of God (Israel). These biblical principles still apply: don’t put undue trust in men; work out your own salvation, it’s not a group affair; beware the scholarly approach that demands you rely on men - not God’s Spirit or personal Bible study.<br />

Jewish guards prevent Christians and Jews from exercising their religious right to pray on the Temple Mount? That's right! Only Muslims have unlimited access to Judaism's most holy site. Only the Koran is permitted within. The Tanach (Jewish Scripture, known to much of the world as the "Old Testament") and Christian Scriptures (the New Testament) are forbidden. Yet Israel claims to respect the religious rights of all people.<br />

Many people are shocked to discover the origins of our most popular religious holidays. They are also surprised to find that the days God commands us to observe in the Bible—the same days Jesus Christ and the apostles kept—are almost universally ignored. Why? Also, why are today's supposedly Christian holidays observed with so many rituals and customs that are not sanctioned anywhere in the Bible? In this booklet you'll discover detailed answers to these questions.<br />
