On Nov. 3, 2024, it was reported that Joel Rosenberg (speaker, author, founder of The Joshua Fund, and editor-in-chief of All Israel News) told a Podcast audience at Dallas Theological Seminary:

• The veil is coming off,
• The scales are coming off,
• The curtain is rising as we get closer to the tribulation, to the Second Coming.
• More and more Jews are coming to faith in Jesus.

Rosenberg believes God is shaking Israel to its core.

I agree, and God is shaking the nations too, especially the Arab nations, Iran, Syria, and Lebanon (He is revealing Himself to get them saved).

I believe the blinding of Israel will cease, and all Israel will be saved at the Second Coming (Luke 19:42; 21:24; Rom. 11:26).

I believe the gospel will go all over the world, and a multitude too great to number will be saved during the Tribulation Period (Matt. 24:14; Rev. 7:3-16; 11:3-6; 14:6-7).

The understanding of Bible prophecy is increasing (Dan. 12:4).

Here is a link to Rosenberg’s article and podcast.

The Church will soon be caught up to heaven, the curtain is rising as we approach the Tribulation Period, and multitudes from Israel and all nations will soon be saved.

Here are recent events that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near.

One, concerning America’s future relationship with Israel: on Nov. 7, 2024, it was reported that Israeli Pres. Netanyahu sent Pres. Trump a message of congratulations on his election victory.

When Trump delivered his victory speech on Nov. 6, 2024, he said he wants to end all wars.

A few pundits took that to mean that Trump was telling Israel to pull its troops out of Gaza and Lebanon.

The next day, Trump’s spokeswoman, Elizabeth Pipko, quickly corrected that.

Pipko said,

• Trump did not give Israel an ultimatum.
• Trump promised to ensure that Israel wins.
• Trump supports an end to the fighting through decisive Israeli victories.

(More: On Nov. 7, 2024, it was reported that the Biden administration will push for a ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon during the remainder of its time in office. A spokesman for the State Dept. said We have no shortage of work to do over the next 74 days, and we are determined to make the most of the time left.)

(More: On Nov. 10, 2024, Netanyahu said he had spoken to Trump 3 times since he got elected (3 times in the last 5 days), and they see eye-to-eye on the Iranian threat and the expansion of peace in other realms.)

(More: I have also seen speculation that those that are running the Biden administration may try to tie Trump’s hands on several issues before he is inaugurated on Jan. 20, 2025.)

(More: I have seen speculation that the Biden administration may try to get a UN resolution to force the Two-State Solution on Israel and a withdrawal of Israel from Gaza and Lebanon. An Israeli withdrawal would prevent Israel from winning the war and allow Hamas and Hezbollah to rebuild their terrorist organization.)

(FYI: If you want a blessing, go to the following link and watch what happened when Trump finished his victory speech; about 1 ½ minutes.)

Two, concerning antisemitism, the world turning against Israel and the Jews returning to the Promised Land at the end of the age: on Nov. 8, 2024, it was reported that Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu was dispatching rescue planes to Amsterdam following a very violent incident against Israeli citizens.

Masked protestors attacked hundreds of Jews leaving a soccer game; some were chased and beaten, one was knocked unconscious, one was run over by a car, and more.

Video of the attack have been posted on social media.

(More: On Nov. 8-9, 2024, Israeli emergency planes flew 2,000 Jews from Amsterdam to Israel, and there may be more in the near future.)

(More: On Nov. 11, 2024, it was reported that the violent attacks on Jews in Amsterdam was organized by a former employee of the UN Relief and Works Agency. According to the Bible, the entire world will be against Israel at the end of the age, and repeatedly, UN employees or former UN employees have been caught attacking or killing Jews. Most recently, Israel provided irrefutable evidence that some were involved in the Oct. 7, 2023 attack that started the Israel-Hamas war.)

(My opinion: People need to wake up to the fact that Islam is not a religion of peace. As I understand it, they are at war with all non-Muslims until they have converted the entire world to Islam. Then they think there will be peace on earth.)

Three, concerning world leaders wanting Israel to withdraw from Gaza (which will let Hamas rebuild its military there): Israel has captured computers with thousands of hours of videos of Hamas terrorists torturing Palestinian citizens.

Many victims are chained to a torture area with a sack over their head, and they are crying and begging while a Hamas terrorist is beating them.

Some human rights activists have warned that this was happening, but the UN, EU, U.S., Arabs, and others ignored it.

(My opinion: It is not hard for me to believe that terrorists that would burn Jews alive, kill babies, rape women, and take hostages – as they did on Oct. 7, 2023 – would torture Palestinians to control them.)

Four, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog: on Nov. 8, 2024, it was reported that Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, posted the following message on X (Twitter).

• The world will certainly see the day when the Zionists (Israel) are defeated in a resounding defeat by the resistance (Iran and its allies).

Iran will try to destroy Israel, but they will fail (Ezek. 38:18-23; Amos 9:15).

Five, concerning Iran: on Nov. 11, 2024, Joel Rosenberg (author, speaker, Editor-in-Chief of All Israel News) speculated that Trump’s election means that if Iran attacks Israel, Israel’s response will be much greater than it would have been under Harris.

The Ayatollah is now facing a great dilemma (just a couple of months to act before U.S. military support for Israel greatly increases), and he must back down on his threats to attack Israel or risk losing his oil wells, nuclear reactor, and a lot more.

(More: On Nov. 11, 2024, it was reported that the prospects for a ceasefire in Lebanon before Trump takes office look good. It is beginning to look like Israel will withdraw from Lebanon, Hezbollah will pull back across the Litani River, and Israel will retain the right to go back in if Hezbollah does not keep the agreement.)

(My opinion: Israel will eventually have to go back in because Muslims do not keep ceasefires and peace treaties. The claim that Islam is a religion of peace is false. The goal of Islam is to gain control of every nation on earth and force all people to worship Allah. To Islam, peace means everyone on earth must worship their god.)

(More: On Nov. 13, 2024, it was reported that Iran is postponing its promised third attack on Israel in the hope of reaching a deal with President-elect Donald Trump, who has taken a hard line on Iran.)

Six, concerning an increase in the frequency and intensity of natural disasters at the end of the age, on Nov. 9, 2024, it was reported that some parts of Colorado received more than 4 ft. of snow.

Over a 3-day period, San Isabel (in the southeast area of the state) received 54.9 inches (probably a record).

Seven, concerning a peace treaty and the expansion of Israel’s borders at the end of the age: on Nov. 12, 2024, it was reported that Israeli Prime Min. Benjamin Netanyahu is planning to declare Israeli sovereignty over all the Jewish settlements and settlement blocks in Judea and Samaria after former Pres. Trump takes office.

It was also reported that Trump may not support it, but he probably wouldn’t oppose it either.

It appears that Trump wants it to be part of a normalization agreement.

We could know soon after Trump takes office.

Eight, concerning God’s promise to bless those that bless Israel and to curse those that curse Israel: on Nov. 12, 2024, Worthy News reported that Trump’s incoming U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, said:

• There is no such thing as the West Bank – it’s Judea and Samaria.
• There is no such thing as settlements – they’re communities, they’re neighborhoods, they’re cities.
• There is no such thing as an occupation.

Nine, concerning Huckabee’s appointment, Joel Rosenberg of All Israel News said:

• Mike is a dear friend, a devout Evangelical follower of Jesus Christ, and one of the most influential pro-Israel voices in the Christian world.
• His appointment is an unmistakable sign of just how seriously Trump regards the enormous influence of the tens of millions of Evangelical Christians in the United States who love Israel and the Jewish people.
• This is the first time in history that an American president has chosen an ambassador to Israel who is so openly and unashamedly committed to his love for Jesus Christ and the Bible.

Here is my daily update on the Israel-Hamas war.

Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2024 (Day 397) The three hundred and forty-second day of the resumed war. Day 175 of the attack on Rafah.

• Hezbollah fired more than 150 rockets and about 20 drones at Israel.
• Israel struck several targets in Lebanon in civilian centers south of the Litani River.

Thursday, Nov. 7, 2024 (Day 398) The three hundred and forty-third day of the resumed war. Day 176 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israel struck 20 sites in Lebanon north of the Litani River, killing at least 60 Hezbollah terrorists.
• Hezbollah fired 120 rockets and several drones at Israel.

Friday, Nov. 8, 2024 (Day 399) The three hundred and forty-fourth day of the resumed war. Day 177 of the attack on Rafah.

• Biden’s Defense Sec. (Lloyd Austin) warned Israel that it is at risk of losing access to some U.S. weapons if it does not produce credible evidence that it has improved the supply and distribution of aid to Gazan noncombatants.
• Israel has captured or killed about 2,000 terrorists in Gaza in the last 3 weeks. The U.S. and UK struck 9 Houthi weapons facilities in Yemen.

Saturday, Nov. 9, 2024 (Day 400) The three hundred and forty-fifth day of the resumed war. Day 178 of the attack on Rafah.

• The U.S. and UK struck 9 Houthi weapons facilities in Yemen.

Sunday, Nov. 10, 2024 (Day 401) The three hundred and forty-sixth day of the resumed war. Day 179 of the attack on Rafah.

• The U.S. and UK struck 9 Houthi weapons facilities in Yemen.
• Israel said it found a terror compound (command rooms, living quarters, weapon storage facilities, weapons, and combat equipment) under a cemetery in Lebanon and sent in hundreds of trucks and concrete mixers to fill it with about 159,000 cubic feet of concrete.
• Israel assassinated a Hezbollah commander that killed the Prime Min. of Lebanon in 2005.

Monday, Nov. 11, 2024 (Day 402) The three hundred and forty-seventh day of the resumed war. Day 180 of the attack on Rafah.

• Hezbollah in Lebanon fired about 175 rockets at Israel.

Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 (Day 403) The three hundred and forty-eighth day of the resumed war. Day 181 of the attack on Rafah.

• The U.S. announced that Israel has improved the humanitarian aid shipments to Gaza, so the U.S. will not withhold the shipment of weapons to Israel.

FYI: God does not send anyone to Hell (all of us are born with a sin nature and destined to go to Hell because we sin), but God has provided a way (Jesus) for everyone to go to Heaven (and He is the only way to get there; John 14:6).

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Last week, I went to a local restaurant for breakfast, and a long-time friend came in and asked if he could sit with me. He quickly started talking about Bible prophecy.

I told him when I talk about that, I often hear someone say, “No one knows the day or the hour.” I agree, but that is just part of the story. The rest of the story is that we can see the day approaching (Heb. 10:25), and we can know when it is near (Luke 21:21).

I added, “I don’t think anyone knows the day or hour of the Rapture, but I believe those who are watching can see a New World Order (world government) and the technology to track all buying and selling approaching now.”

My friend responded, “People are laying the foundation for that now.”

I replied, “That is an excellent analogy. Less than one mile from here is the foundation that carpenters laid for a new house about a week ago. That foundation is a sign that they will soon build a new house there. We will soon see the wall studs, plywood on the walls, plastic wrap around the walls, roof trusses, etc., going up.”

And sure enough, three days later, it looked like the wall studs were all in place. The next day, they put plywood on the wall studs and plastic wrap around that. Then, they put the roof trusses in place. Now, they are putting plywood decking on the roof trusses.

This is the point: the foundation was a sign that a new house would soon be built on the lot, and more signs quickly followed. In like manner, the foundation that is being laid for the New World Order (globalism, open borders, censorship, a plan to restructure the UN, etc.) is a sign that the end of the age is approaching, and more signs will quickly follow.

Here are recent events that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near:

One, concerning an increase in the frequency and intensity of natural disasters at the end of the age: on Oct. 30, 2024, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reported that,

• The United States experienced a record-breaking 24 “billion-dollar” weather and climate disasters thus far in 2024.
• 418 people lost their lives.
• With 2 months to go, this year’s toll already greatly exceeds the long-term annual average of 8.5 events recorded between 1980 and 2023 and surpasses the recent five-year average of 20.4 events per year.

(More: Chiva, Spain recently got 19.33 in. of rain in 8 hrs. – 6 1/2 in. of rain in 1 hr. – the Jucar region of Spain got 17 ½ in. of rain in 24 hrs., and Valencia got 20.47 in. of rain in 24 hrs. Some areas of Valencia got a year’s worth of rain in 8 hrs. More than 200 people drowned, and about 2,000 are missing.)

Two, concerning the division of Israel and a covenant with many for peace and safety in the Middle East: on Oct. 28, 2024, Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu,

• Expressed hope for future peace agreements with additional Arab countries once the ongoing conflict with Hamas and Hezbollah comes to an end.
• He said, “I aspire to continue the process I led a few years ago with the Abraham Accords and achieve peace with more Arab countries.”
• With US support, Israel seeks to deepen ties with neighboring nations as it envisions a Middle East united by shared interests in peace, security (peace and safety), and economic development.

Saudi Arabia has expressed interest in a peace treaty, but they want Israel to agree to the Two-State Solution (division of Israel) first.

(More: On Oct. 30, 2024, Saudi Arabia hosted the first meeting of a new global alliance aimed at establishing a Palestinian state. Saudi Foreign Affairs Min. Prince Faisal urged the international community to come together to increase joint efforts in finding a two-state solution for the return of security and stability and anchoring peace in the region, and to translate this determination into a tangible reality through working steps and a definitive timeline.)

Three, concerning the back-and-forth attacks between Iran’s proxy Hezbollah and Israel (and the potential for that to lead to the Battle of Gog and Magog): on Oct. 30, 2024, the sheik that was chosen to replace Hassan Nasrallah as the leader of Hezbollah delivered his first speech and promised to continue the war with Israel.

Four, concerning Israel having a great army (Ezek. 37:10) at the end of the age: on Oct. 31, 2024, Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu said…

• We are dismantling the axis of evil that we face with calculated blows. No longer will terrorist armies be on our borders. Hamas will no longer rule in Gaza, and Hezbollah will not sit on our northern border at positions a few meters from our border from which it could invade. This will not happen anymore. We are also severing Iran’s weapons pipelines to Hezbollah – through Syria and from there to Lebanon.
• The haughty words of the Iranian regime’s leaders cannot cover up the fact in Iran today, Israel has greater freedom of action than ever before. We can go anywhere that we need to in Iran.

Israel is delivering devastating blows to her enemies wherever they are, her enemies know it, and they are afraid of what Israel can do.

(More: On Oct. 30, 2024, prophecy teacher Amir Tsarfati said, “Iran and its proxies aren’t battling Israel, they’re going up against Almighty God…. Nothing has changed in the Lord’s heart since the day He told Abraham that He would make him into a great nation and would bless those who blessed him and curse those who cursed him.”)

Five, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog (Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others attacking Israel in the latter days and latter years): on Nov. 1, 2024, it was reported that Russia and Iran are expected to sign a comprehensive strategic partnership treaty in the coming months.

Russia’s Foreign Min. said, “It will confirm the parties’ desire for closer cooperation in the field of defense and interaction in the interests of peace and security at the regional and global levels.”

Russia has criticized Israel several times since its war with the Iranian-backed Hamas terrorists started (and Russia has criticized Israel’s retaliation attack on Iran), so Russia’s signature on a treaty to defend Iran should get the attention of every prophecy teacher.

Six, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog (Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others attacking Israel in the latter days and latter years), on Nov. 1, 2024, it was reported that 3 Iranian officials said:

• After reviewing a report from senior military commanders on the extent of the damage caused by Israel’s Oct. 26, 2024 retaliation strikes on Iran’s missile production capabilities, air defense systems, critical energy infrastructure and a main port, Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei said the scope of Israel’s retaliatory strikes was “too large to ignore.”
• According to the report, Khamenei has instructed Iran’s Supreme National Security Council to prepare for another assault on Israel.

(More: On Nov. 2, 2024, Ayatollah Khamenei released a video with threats to the U.S. and Israel. Khamenei said, “The enemies, whether the Zionist regime or the United States of America, will definitely receive a crushing response to what they are doing to Iran and the Iranian nation and to the resistance front.).

(More: On Nov. 2, 2024, it was reported that the Biden administration warned Iran that the U.S. will not be able to curb Israel’s retaliation should Iran attack Israel directly for a third time.)

Seven, concerning antisemitism and violence at the end of the age: on Nov. 4, 2024, it was reported that Britain was reeling from a weekend of massive anti-Israel protests tainted by violence and expressed support for terrorism.

British Jews are saying they no longer feel safe in the nation they called home.

Israel’s future is in God’s hands; the nation will go through the Tribulation Period, but it cannot be defeated (Dan. 9:27; Amos 9:15, and more).

Eight, concerning Israel’s future, as I am writing this, it appears that Donald J. Trump will be the next president of the U.S.

It is common knowledge that:

• The Biden-Harris administration helped Israel in many ways (defended Israel against Iran; gave Israel money, gave Israel certain kinds of weapons, etc.), but they tried to tie Israel’s hands, they threatened Israel, tried to force Israel into a ceasefire, they withheld some weapons from Israel, told Israel not to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities, oil wells, etc.), they pushed the Two-State Solution (the division of Israel), pushed Israel to give up the West Bank (Judea and Samaria), they funneled large sums of money to the Palestinians, they courted anti-Israel protestors in the U.S., and more.
• During his first presidency, Trump recognized the Golan Heights as part of Israel, recognized Jerusalem as the undivided capital of Israel, supported Israel’s claim to part of the West Bank, etc. As a candidate this time, Trump rejected a ceasefire, advocated a quick military victory, promised unwavering support for Israel, and more.

I cannot predict what will happen in the future, and God will protect Israel with or without Trump, but I believe the record shows that Trump will be more supportive of Israel, and that is a good thing (a blessing for America, not a curse).

(More: Israeli Prime Min. said, “Your historic return to the White House offers a new beginning for America and a powerful recommitment to the great alliance between Israel and America.”

(My opinion: It will be about 2 ½ months before Trump takes office, and the globalists are not going to stop trying to bring him down. Anything can happen. Also, Trump promised an American golden age, but the Rapture could change everything.)

Here is my daily update on the Israel-Hamas war:

Thursday, Oct. 31, 2024 (Day 391) The three hundred and thirty-sixth day of the resumed war. Day 169 of the attack on Rafah.

• Netanyahu said Israel’s supreme goal is stopping Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

Friday, Nov. 1, 2024 (Day 392) The three hundred and thirty-seventh day of the resumed war. Day 170 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israeli jets struck more than 200 targets in Gaza and southern Lebanon.
• Israel assassinated one of the few remaining high-ranking members of Hamas’ political bureau and his assistant.

Saturday, Nov. 2, 2024 (Day 393) The three hundred and thirty-eighth day of the resumed war. Day 171 of the attack on Rafah.

• An Israeli commando unit landed in northern Lebanon, seized a Hezbollah operative at his home, and took him back to Israel for questioning.
• Hezbollah has fired 160 rockets and drones at Israel in the last 24 hrs. 11 people were wounded, and 7 others were treated for acute shock and anxiety.
• Thousands of self-proclaimed peace-loving Muslims protested against Israel in London, England, by marching, smashing glass windows, damaging property, etc.

Sunday, Nov. 3, 2024 (Day 394) The three hundred and thirty-ninth day of the resumed war. Day 172 of the attack on Rafah.

• Netanyahu said a deal (a ceasefire), or no deal (no ceasefire), Israel will push Hezbollah back across the Litani River.

Monday, Nov. 4, 2024 (Day 395) The three hundred and fortieth day of the resumed war. Day 173 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israel officially informed the UN that Israel is withdrawing from the 1967 agreement recognizing the Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA. Israel said it will not cooperate with groups that promote terror.

Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024 (Day 396) The three hundred and forty-first day of the resumed war. Day 174 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israel is continuing to destroy Hezbollah’s leaders, tunnels, and weapons.

Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2024 (Day 397) The three hundred and forty-second day of the resumed war. Day 175 of the attack on Rafah.

• In response to Trump’s election victory, Hezbollah fired several rockets at Trump Heights on the Golan Heights (mountains of Israel).

FYI: God does not send anyone to Hell (all of us are born with a sin nature and destined to go to Hell because we sin),
but God has provided a way (Jesus) for everyone to go to Heaven (and He is the only way to get there; John 14:6).

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.
