God gave all the Promised Land to Israel and warned the world not to divide it (Gen. 17:7-8; Joel 3:2), but Pres. Biden and others have pushed the Two-State solution (division of Israel) since the early 1990s.

Pres. Biden and others have often tried to tell Prime Min. Netanyahu what to do, and when he refused, they have tried to bring an end to Netanyahu’s government.

Earlier this month, Pres. Biden sent U.S. Sec. of State Blinken to several nations supposedly to keep the Israel-Hamas war from spreading.

In Saudi Arabia, Blinken got an agreement from Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman to agree to normalize relations with Israel in exchange for accepting the Two-State Solution.

Blinken then went to Israel with the deal in his hand, but Netanyahu rejected it.

At one of Israel’s military bases, Netanyahu said:

• “The war continues, and it will continue until the end, until we complete all our goals: The return of the abductees, the elimination of Hamas, and the assurance that Gaza will no longer pose a threat to Israel. Let there be no mistake; we will persist in the fight on land, at sea, and in the air until complete victory.”

These events triggered reports that Biden is upset; he hasn’t talked to Netanyahu in about a month, and he is once again trying to get Netanyahu removed from office.

One report said the Biden administration is beginning to make plans for what it will do on the day after Netanyahu is out of office.

Another report said Blinken met secretly with members of Netanyahu’s war cabinet to try to undermine Netanyahu.

On Jan. 18, 2024, it was reported that Netanyahu said:

• “Israel must have security control over the entire territory west of the Jordan River.”
• “I put the brakes on the attempt to coerce us to a reality that would endanger the state of Israel.”
• “We will not settle for anything short of an absolute victory.”

(More: On Jan. 19, 2024, it was reported that a rift broke out in Israel’s war cabinet, and there was criticism of how Netanyahu is managing the war. It was reported that Netanyahu and his Defense Min. are barely on speaking terms. Is it a coincidence that this happened on the day after it was reported that Blinken tried to undermine Netanyahu?)

(More: After the rift, Biden called Netanyahu. They spoke for about 30-40 minutes, and the chasm between them appeared to grow wider.)

(More: On Jan. 19, 2024, Netanyahu linked his removal from office to the division of Israel. Netanyahu said, “I can say something about what they call the day after Netanyahu… Those who speak of the day after Netanyahu are talking about the creation of a Palestinian state led by the Palestinian Authority.”)

(More: On Jan. 19, 2024, the EU’s top diplomat said the international community may have to impose the Two-State solution on Israel without Israel’s agreement.)

(More: On Jan. 19, 2024, Netanyahu’s government easily survived a no-confidence vote when only 18 out of 120 Knesset members voted. Some members said they would not play politics while the nation is at war, and they refused to vote.)

(My opinion: Pres. Biden and many others are willing to risk the security of Israel for peace with the Muslims. The Muslims claim to be a religion of peace, but they believe they must conquer the entire world for Allah before there can be peace. They also believe they can make peace treaties and break them if doing that will advance their goal of world domination. The international community believes they can divide Israel and get peace and safety. The Bible says God will not allow that. His judgment will fall, and there will be no peace on earth until the Second Coming of Jesus.)

(My opinion: Israel must stop relying on the U.S., the EU, or any other earthly entity and start relying on God. And by relying on God, I do not mean rebuild the Temple and resume the animal sacrifices. I mean repent of their sins and accept a Jew called Jesus as their Messiah.)

Here are more events that appear to indicate that history is at the end of the age.

One, concerning world government: on Jan. 17, 2024, it was reported that the World Health Organization (WHO) Sec. Gen. Ghebreyesus told the World Economic Forum (WEF) that Disease X (an unidentified, non-existent, future disease) will happen.

He said it is a matter of “when,” not “if.”

He doesn’t know when it will happen, but companies are already working on a vaccine to treat this disease.

He said it would be a Covid-like disease, and we could consider Covid the first Disease X.

(Update: According to End Time Headlines, on Jan. 17, 2024, WHO Director Gen. Ghebreyesus urged the nations to sign the International Pandemic Treaty by May 24, 2024, so the world can prepare for Disease X. He said preparing for terrible diseases the world doesn’t know about is a global interest, not a national interest.)

(More: On Jan. 23, 2024, Dr. Robert Malone said Disease X is an imaginary infectious disease that the WHO is using to scare the public into governmental compliance, to gain power for unelected officials, and to get more money.)

(My opinion: This appears to be the beginning of the next fake pandemic. The so-called experts who are warning the world about Disease X are not named. Their research is not available. We are expected to believe the scare tactics of people who have been dishonest in the past and are clearly trying to get control of the healthcare of everyone on earth.)

Two, concerning world government and world religion: on Jan. 17, 2024, following a speech that Pope Francis sent to the WEF24 meeting in Davos, Catholic Archbishop Vigano released a statement saying:

• Pope Francis supports the globalists and the New World Order.
• Pope Francis is a servant of the globalist elite (characters who openly declare that they want to reduce the world’s population through wars, famines, and organized pestilence).
• What would Jesus have said at the WEF? Not what Pope Francis said.
• Rome will lose the faith and become the seat of the Antichrist.

(My opinion: I do not believe the Antichrist will rule from Rome, but the False Prophet will support the Antichrist, and the False Prophet may come from Rome.)

(More: White House Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said the post-World War II international order “seems to be not that order anymore. We are on the way to a new order, so we are between orders.” This sounds like the Biden administration believes the world is in a transition period between the old world order and the New World Order; world government.)

(More: Klaus Schwab, head of the WEF, said governments and “decision-makers” must “break the cycle” of nationalism and individualism to achieve its Great Reset objectives.)

Three, concerning world government: on Jan. 17, 2024, UN Sec. Gen. Guterres:

• Called for global governance in a new multi-polar global order (in a June 26, 2020, speech, he said he wants global governance with teeth).
• This is needed because nations (today it’s Russia and Gaza) are “ignoring international law, trampling on the Geneva Conventions, and even violating the United Nations Charter.”

Four, concerning a godless world government headed by an antichrist leader: this week, Laura J. Wellington, an award-winning author and blogger who attended the recent WEF meeting, wrote:

• I hardly see leaders. What I see is a bunch of egomaniacs on a mission to ruin our planet.
• The decision to leave God out of the event, focusing instead on his creation itself (Mother Earth, Climate Change, etc.), is purposeful.
• God has dealt with this type before, and he will again. They never win.
• Imagine all the good these people could do for humanity if, in fact, they weren’t hell-bent on taking it over, throwing God out, and controlling every thought in people’s heads.

(Note: Wellington’s comments were prompted by the presentation of a pagan ritual that drew a standing ovation at the WEF meeting. It reminded her of Rom. 1:22-25.)

Five, concerning a rebuilt Temple: in Old Testament times when the Jews were wandering in the wilderness, those who carried the Tabernacle, set it up, took it down, and served there had to meet two requirements: 1) they had to be descendants of Aaron, and 2) they had to be cleansed with water of purification made with the ashes of a red heifer that was pure and unblemished.

When the next Jewish Temple is built, those who build it and serve there must be descendants of Aaron, and they must be cleansed with the water of purification made with the ashes of a red heifer that was pure and unblemished.

But for almost 2,000 years, Israel didn’t have one because the Romans destroyed their herd of Red Heifers when they destroyed Israel in 70 A.D.

In Sept. 2022, a rancher in Texas had five red heifers that were pure and without blemish, and they were moved from Texas to Israel.

On July 16, 2023, it was reported that three of the red heifers were still pure and without blemish, and if just one of these red heifers remained unblemished until early 2024, it could be sacrificed on Passover, and its ashes could be used to cleanse priests to build the next Temple and serve there.

On Aug. 8, 2023, it was reported that the Israeli government has discretely shifted some funds to prepare for purification services and possibly the construction of a third Temple.

According to the report, little is being said about this because rebuilding the Temple is an explosive issue.

On Jan. 14, 2024, a spokesperson for Hamas was being interviewed on TV, and he said bringing red cows to Israel was the “application of a detestable religious myth” that ignored and hurt the feelings of the Arabs.

Following the arrival of the 5 Red Heifers in Israel, Hamas had warned that they posed a threat to the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount.

The Hamas spokesperson seemed to be saying Hamas started the Israel-Hamas war to stop the Jews from sacrificing a Red Heifer and rebuilding the Temple.

Six, concerning the decline of the U.S.: on Jan. 18, 2024, it was reported that the military can no longer meet its recruiting requirements, and it is finding that some white men are refusing to serve in a military that discriminates against white people.

Seven, concerning the decline of America: U.S. citizens must show a passport or a valid ID to fly in or out of the U.S..

On Jan. 24, 2024, it was reported that the Biden Administration is seeking ways to let illegal aliens fly without a passport or ID.

(My opinion: Biden is trying harder to protect Hamas terrorists and illegal aliens than he is trying to protect Israel and the U.S.)

Eight, concerning the decline of the U.S.: on Jan. 19, 2024, it was reported that First Lady Jill Biden will be sponsoring an Easter Egg decorating contest at the White House, but contestants cannot put religious themes on their eggs (They can’t use anything about Passover, the cross, the resurrection of Jesus, etc.).

(Note: Passover and Easter are about the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. It looks like the spirit of antichrist has taken over the White House.)

Nine, concerning wars and rumors of wars at the end of the age: on Jan. 18, 2024, prophecy expert Amir Tsarfati listed 8 areas of conflict that are taking place now.

• Israel’s Conflict with Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon.
• Iraqi Militias’ Conflict with Israel.
• Iran’s Conflict with Syria, Iraq, and Pakistan.
• Yemen’s Conflict with the US and the UK.
• Russia’s Conflict with Ukraine.
• China’s Threats Against Taiwan.
• Turkey attacks the Kurds.
• North Korea Threats Against South Korea.

Ten, concerning deceit and corruption in the White House: while campaigning for Pres. in 2022, now Pres. Biden said Hunter’s Laptop from Hell was “a bunch of garbage” and a “Russian Plant” that nobody believes.

On Jan. 18, 2024, the U.S. Dept. of Justice said that the laptop belonged to Hunter, and it is not Russian disinformation.

Eleven, concerning corruption and a stolen election in 2020: two professors (one at the Univ. of Michigan and the other at Auburn Univ.) have proven that Dominion Voting Machines can be hacked, and the votes can be altered.

The professors proved this by hacking into a Dominion Voting Machine Tabulator in the presence of a judge in court and changing the vote totals on Jan. 19, 2024.

One of the professors issued a report on this in the past (date not given in the article), but the Georgia Sec. of State covered it up until a Federal District Court Judge unsealed it in June 2023.

(By the way: On Jan. 22, 2024, it was reported that Biden spent the weekend at his 3.4-million-dollar home in Delaware. Some media is reporting that he has spent 432 days – almost 40% – of his presidency on vacation.)

Twelve, concerning tracking of all buying and selling: Queen Máxima of the Netherlands urged globalist elites at the World Economic Forum (WEF) to expand plans for global “digital IDs” to ensure they can track individuals’ “vaccination status” and other private information.

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

Thursday, Jan. 18, 2024 (Day 104): The forty-ninth day of the resumed war.

• Hamas had 24 fighting regiments in Gaza, and Israel has destroyed about 16-17 of them (approximately 2/3).
• The U.S. launched several air strikes on Houthi sites in Yemen.
• Israel killed the Islamic Jihad leader who was released in a trade for Gilad Shalit.

Friday, Jan. 19, 2024 (Day 105): The fiftieth day of the resumed war.

• The hatred of Israel is growing, and it is easy to see Israel standing alone. (Note: The nations will abandon Israel, but God will not, and that will eventually lead to the nation accepting Jesus as the Messiah.)
• The Houthis in Yemen promised not to attack Russian and Chinese ships in the Red Sea.

Saturday, Jan. 20, 2024 (Day 106): The fifty-first day of the resumed war.

• Israeli Jets destroyed a building in Damascus, Syria, that killed five Iranian advisors. Iran said it reserves the right to respond at the appropriate time and place.
• There were more attacks in Lebanon, Iraq, and the Red Sea.
• There was a massive attack on an airbase in Iraq where hundreds of U.S. troops are stationed. Several U.S. troops were injured.
• Israeli troops have discovered a deadly fungus in the Hamas tunnels for which there is no treatment. Some of the hostages have probably been exposed. It is believed to have caused the death of one Israeli soldier.
• Hamas now says it will release the hostages for an end to the war and Israel’s complete withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.
• About 860,000 Israelis have left their homes in northern Israel.
• Biden’s response to the Houthis attacks on ships in the Red Sea has accomplished nothing, so he plans to step it up a little.

Sunday, Jan. 21, 2024 (Day 107): The fifty-second day of the resumed war.

• An unverified report says more than 25,000 Gazans have been killed, more than 62,000 have been wounded, most of the 2.3 million Gazans displaced.
• Israel discovered cages in tunnels that hostages had been kept in.
• The U.S. said 2 Navy SEALs who went missing on Jan. 11, 2024, were on a mission to board a boat that was suspected of carrying illegal Iranian weapons, and they are presumed dead.

Monday, Jan. 22, 2024 (Day 108): The fifty-third day of the resumed war.

• Israel proposed a 2-month pause in all fighting in exchange for the release of all hostages.
• The EU plans to hold peace talks with the U.S., UN, Egypt, Jordan, and Arabs, and they are planning to threaten Israel if it refuses to engage them.
• 21 Israeli soldiers were killed when an explosion caused the collapse of 2 buildings that they were in.
• Hamas rejected the Two-State Solution and called for the destruction of Israel.
• Israel launched a major attack on Hamas in Khan Younis and killed dozens of members of Yahya Sinwar’s home brigade. Israel believes Sinwar, some of his top assistants, and many troops may be holed up there, and it could take several days to flush them out.

Tuesday, Jan. 23, 2024 (Day 109): The fifty-fourth day of the resumed war.

• Hezbollah fired 12 missiles at an Israeli Air Force control base, but damage was minimal.
• There is progress but no final deal toward the release of the hostages and a month-long ceasefire in Gaza.
• The Houthis gave the U.S. and UK staff 30 days to leave Yemen.

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.

Prophecy teachers understand there will be wars and rumors of war at the end of the age.

Some (including myself) have long thought that the Battle of Gog and Magog could happen soon, but it has not.

Russia invaded Ukraine almost two years ago (on Feb. 24, 2022), Hamas invaded Israel about 3 months ago (on Oct. 7, 2023), and every day, there are indications that the Israel-Hamas war could spread to other nations.

>On Jan. 6, 2024, Hezbollah fired 62 rockets from Lebanon into Israel, and the next day, Israel warned that tensions are rising and there could be another war with Lebanon.

>U.S. Sec. of State Blinken was touring nations in the Middle East to calm things down. In Qatar, he said, “This (The Israel-Hamas war) is a conflict that could easily metastasize, causing even more insecurity and even more suffering.”

>Houthi rebels from Yemen have attacked ships in the Red Sea 24 times in the last 3 months, supposedly in support of Hamas; on Jan. 10, 2024, the UN Security Council demanded that the Houthis stop the attacks immediately; on Jan. 11, 2024, the Houthis attacked another ship; the U.S., UK, and others fired more than 100 guided munitions at 16 Houthi military targets in Yemen (5 people were killed and six were injured); the Iranian-backed Houthis called the strikes in Yemen an act of war and vowed to take unimaginable revenge on the U.S. and UK.

>On Jan. 12, 2024, Iran condemned the U.S.-led strikes on the Houthis (Iran’s hired terrorists) and said it risks spreading the war. Turkey’s Pres. Erdogan accused the U.S. and UK of trying to turn the Red Sea into a sea of blood. Iran and Turkey will join Russia in the Battle of Gog and Magog.

>On Jan. 13, 2024, the U.S. and UK struck more than a dozen Houthi targets in Yemen.

>On Jan. 13, 2024, an article in the New York Times reported that a Mideast expert for the European Council on Foreign Relations said, “This is already a regional war, no longer limited to Gaza, but already spread to Lebanon, Iraq, Syria and Yemen.”

>On Jan. 13, 2024, a French military analyst expressed the opinion that Iran’s proxies are anxious to spread the war, but Iran wants them to hold back a little longer (a month or so) while Iran produces some nuclear weapons.

>On Jan. 14, 2024, Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen fired an anti-ship missile at a U.S. destroyer in the Red Sea.

>On Jan. 15, 2024, the Houthis said their position on attacking ships in the Red Sea has not changed since the U.S. started attacking targets in Yemen.

>On Jan. 15, 2024, a missile fired from Yemen hit a U.S.-owned ship.

>On Jan. 15, 2024, it was reported that Iran has Revolutionary Guard troops on the ground in Yemen helping with the Houthis attack ships in the Red Sea.

>On Jan. 15, 2024, the Houthis in Yemen fired a missile that hit a U.S. aircraft carrier in the Red Sea.

>On Jan. 16, 2024, Hezbollah tried to send several drones into northern Israel. They followed that by firing several rockets into the same area. Israel responded with more than 30 airstrikes on 15 different targets, including more than 150 squads of Hezbollah forces.

>On Jan. 16, 2023, the U.S. launched a pre-emptive strike and destroyed 4 anti-ship ballistic missiles that the Houthis in Yemen were preparing for launch.

>The Houthi attacks on ships are causing the price of shipping to soar.

>On Jan. 17, 2024, U.S. Sec. of State Blinken said he “could not think of a time in his career when there had been more global challenges, ranging from war in Gaza and Ukraine to tensions over Taiwan.”

It is beginning to look like there will be another war, and another war, and another war (wars and rumors of war), and this is one of the signs Jesus said would exist at the end of the age.

Here are some reports that appear to verify that the end of the age is near.

One, concerning deceit: based on a survey of 1500 experts, industry leaders and others, on Jan. 10, 2024, the World Economic Forum (WEF) warned that false and misleading information produced by Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a greater risk to the global economy than Climate Change.

Two, concerning the Mark of the Beast and tracking all buying and selling: a digital ID is not the Mark of the Beast (the name, number, or Mark of the Antichrist), but it is a necessary step for the use of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) and the ability to track everyone’s buying and selling.

On Jan. 12, 2024, it was reported that about 1.6 million people in Malaysia have signed up for a digital ID, and the government expects about 30 million people will have one in the next 6 months.

Some officials claim that more than 100 nations are studying the use of CBDCs.

815 million people in India already have a digital ID.

Three, concerning the Mark of the Beast: at the Davos 2024 meeting on Jan. 16, 2024, Bill Gates said, “COVID vaccines need to have longer duration, more coverage, and we’re going to change. Instead of using needles, we’ll use a little patch.”

The patch Gates is talking about is his patented Quantum Dot Tattoo (Mark).

He wants to tattoo people when they are vaccinated to identify those that go along with world government, allow them to buy and sell, etc.

Gates added that his patch is almost ready, and it will be rolled out in India (where 815 million people already have a digital ID).

(Question: If Gates and others are preparing to jab, tattoo, and track 815 million people in India, do you think they will stop when they have accomplished that? If they can do it to 815 million people in India, could they do it to everyone on earth by the middle of the Tribulation Period?)

Four, concerning a peace treaty in the Middle East: over a 7-day period, U.S. Sec. of State Blinken recently traveled to 9 Arab nations, and all of them agreed that they are willing to sign a short-term or long-term (could it be 7 years) agreement provided Israel is ready to take concrete steps toward the creation of a Palestinian state (the division of Israel).

It was also reported that Blinken had a “very candid conversation” with Prime Min. Netanyahu and other high-ranking officials in Israel on this issue, and a senior State Dept. official said, “Israel ultimately doesn’t have a choice.”

The Bible clearly teaches that there will be a worthless 7-year treaty at the end of the age, and it will kick off the Tribulation Period.

The judgment of God will fall, and the entire world will eventually look worse than Gaza looks today.

(My opinion: The Two-State Solution – a division of Israel – has been Biden’s plan all along, and God clearly said He would drag the world into the Battle of Armageddon if they do it; Joel 3:2.).

Five, concerning the use of electric vehicles (EVs) in the U.S.: on Jan. 11, 2024, Hertz announced that it will sell 20,000 EVs (they own 60,000) it has bought and replace them with gasoline-powered vehicles.

They cited high repair costs and the low resale value of used EVs (most people will not buy one).

Six, concerning an increase in natural disasters at the end of the age: this past weekend, some temperatures in Canada dropped to minus 50 degrees Celsius (about 58 degrees below zero Fahrenheit), the solar panels were virtually useless, and all the remaining gas generators were operating at full capacity.

Alberta’s electric company imported electricity from other systems, asked citizens to not charge their electric vehicles (EVs), and to not use electricity in every way they could.

(Question: What would have happened to citizens at 58 below zero if they relied solely on solar panels and other sources weren’t available; no coal, gas, oil, or wood? How did those people get to work, store, doctor, etc., if they couldn’t charge the batteries on their EVs? Understand that some U.S. leaders are serious about closing coal mines, stopping the drilling for oil, forcing citizens to drive EVs, etc.)

Seven, concerning the decline of America: in Nov. 2023, a male Democrat who identifies as a female was elected to fill a seat in the Virginia state senate.

In a recent interview on Jan. 9, 2024, he/she announced his/her intent to be sworn in with his/her hand on his/her favorite heavy metal album instead of the Bible.

(My opinion: At some point, America will pay for its blatant rejection of God.)

(More: On Jan. 1, 2024, a new law went into effect in Maryland that requires taxpayers to pay for sex-change procedures, breast implants, hair alterations, voice lessons, scar removal procedures, and more.)

Eight, concerning an increase in the frequency and intensity of natural disasters at the end of the age: while I am writing this on Jan. 15, 2024, about 95 million Americans are experiencing an unprecedented storm with snow, ice, strong winds, record low wind chill temperatures, and, in some areas, life-threatening conditions and power outages.

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

Wednesday, Jan. 10, 2024 (Day 96): The forty-first day of the resumed war.

The U.S. and UK shot down 18 drones and 3 missiles that Houthis fired at ships.

Houthis that fired missiles at a British navy vessel in the Red Sea were trained at an Iranian naval academy.

The UN Security Council demanded that the Houthis in Yemen stop attacking ships in the Red Sea immediately.

Israel’s war cabinet will deliberate a Qatari proposal to deport Hamas leaders and release all hostages in exchange for the withdrawal of all Israeli forces from Gaza. Hamas immediately rejected the proposal, but the U.S. and Israel have agreed that Hamas will not govern Gaza when the war is over.

Intelligence information captured by Israel in Gaza shows that two so-called Palestinian journalists who were recently killed in the war were terrorists posing as journalists. At the time of their death, they were using drones to spy on Israeli troops.

Thousands of Israelis went to the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem to pray for the release of the hostages.

Israel found a tunnel with evidence that hostages had been there, including DNA.

Thursday, Jan. 11, 2024 (Day 97): The forty-second day of the resumed war.

Iran seized an oil tanker in the Gulf of Oman that was carrying oil from Iraq to Turkey.

The U.S., UK, and others fired more than 100 guided munitions at 16 Houthi military targets in Yemen (5 people were killed and 6 were injured).

Friday, Jan. 12, 2024 (Day 98): The forty-third day of the resumed war.

The Iranian-backed Houthis called the strikes in Yemen an act of war and vowed to take unimaginable revenge on the U.S. and UK.

About 30 min. after the attack on Houthi military targets in Yemen, there were unconfirmed reports of a bomb threat on the U.S. embassy in Iraq. (Note: The Iranians, Houthis, and Bahrainis are Shiite Muslims, not Sunnis like most Arabs.)

Turkey’s Pres. Erdogan said Turkey is giving evidence to the International Court of Justice that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza.

Saturday, Jan. 13, 2024 (Day 99): The forty-fourth day of the resumed war.

The U.S. and UK struck more Houthi targets in Yemen.

The Houthis said the U.S. and UK will have to pay a heavy price for the attacks.

Fighting is intense, and the death toll is high in central and southern Gaza.

A group of violent anti-Israel protestors almost broke through the fence around the White House.

Sunday, Jan. 14, 2024 (Day 100): The forty-fifth day of the resumed war.

Netanyahu said, “No One Will Stop Us, Not the Hague, Not the Axis of Evil, and Not Anyone Else.”

The Biden Administration said they are pressuring Israel to start lowering the intensity on Hamas in Gaza.

Hamas released a 37-second video of 3 Israeli hostages and said it will reveal their fate tomorrow.

Hamas said the fate of many hostages is unknown.

The Palestinians in Gaza are some of the poorest people on earth, and Hamas could have helped them, but Hamas spent billions of dollars building new tunnels and expanding old ones.

Monday, Jan. 15, 2024 (Day 101): The forty-sixth day of the resumed war.

Israel said 25 hostages have died in captivity, but Hamas is still holding 132.

Two attacks in Israel by terrorists that entered the nation illegally killed one and injured 17.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard fired rockets at Erbil, the capital of Kurdistan (in Iraq), under the pretense that Israel had established a spy center there (4 civilians were killed and 6 civilians were injured). Iraq recalled its ambassador to Iran and said it will lodge a complaint with the UN Security Council.

Several Hamas officials who were living in Lebanon have gone into hiding in other countries.

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh urged Muslims all over the world to build on the victory they had on Oct. 7, 2023 (raping women, beheading babies, taking hostages, etc.) for the liberation of Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The Anti-Defamation League said antisemitism is increasing.

Tuesday, Jan. 16, 2024 (Day 102): The forty-seventh day of the resumed war.

The tunnel network under Gaza is far bigger than anyone realized. It was originally believed to be about 250 miles but has turned out to be 350 to 450 miles of tunnel and more than 5,000 shafts.

From an area in Gaza that Israeli troops had just evacuated from (about 24 hours before), Hamas fired more than 50 rockets toward a town in Israel. This generated a debate in Israel’s war cabinet about Israel withdrawing too soon.

Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2024 (Day 103): The forty-eighth day of the resumed war.

Muslims – some have been funded by Iran – have attacked Jews in Judea and Samaria more than 2600 times since Oct. 7, 2023 (throwing rocks or firebombs, stabbing or trying to stab people, running over people with their vehicles, etc.) Understand that this is several times a day, every day. What is wrong with those who think Israel shouldn’t try to do something about it?

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.
