On Sept. 9, 2024, one of my favorite Bible prophecy teachers, Hal Lindsey, pointed out that God’s promise to give Abraham and his descendants all the Promised Land (see Ezek. 19:7-8) seemed implausible (unreal, unbelievable, unlikely) for many centuries.

Lindsey said,

• With every century that the Jews remained dispersed around the world, the more implausible the promises seemed.
• That is, they seemed implausible… until God started to miraculously fulfill those promises (by causing the dispersed Jews to start returning to the land).

Lindsey asked a rhetorical question:

• How can today’s Israel be the renewed nation promised in prophecy?

Lindsey pointed out that the Bible answers this question.

>Israel would be brought back together and to the land. Then, at some point after being brought back, they would experience a national repentance.

>God said, “For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God” (Lindsey quoted Ezek. 36:24-25, but I have quoted Ezek. 36:24-28).

Lindsey added, “We don’t know the timing, but the order is clear — return, and then be cleansed.”

Lindsey noted that God repeated this sequence in Ezek. 37 (return to the Promised Land from the heathen nations in unbelief first, repent and be saved later – Ezek. 36:24).

>“Prophesy upon these bones (Israel; see verse 11 below), and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

>So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones (Israel) came together, bone to his bone. And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.

>Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.

>So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army (Israel became a great army).

>Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts (verse 11).

>Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD” (Ezek. 37:4-14).

Lindsey pointed out that Israel is back in the Promised Land, that they have not gotten saved (received the breath of life) yet, but it is coming.

The next day (Sept. 10, 2024), another one of my favorite Bible prophecy teachers, Jonathan Brentner, wrote,

• If I were to select one word that sums up most people today, it would be “unaware.”
• Most believers pursue their aspirations with little or no understanding of the times in which they live.

Brentner turned to the Scriptures and something Jesus said about the signs of His coming (Note: Brentner quoted Matt. 24:37-39, but I have added Matt. 24:32-36).

>“Now learn a parable of the fig tree (Israel; Hos. 9:10); When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Matt. 24:32-36).

>“But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not (were unaware) until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Matt. 24:37-39).

Brentner said,

• Because the people in Noah’s day didn’t believe his warnings about God’s impending judgment, it was as if they didn’t know about it until it started raining.

Brentner’s point is that most Christians are unaware (not paying attention to Bible prophecy and have little or no knowledge) of the significance of what is happening in Israel.

Just as people were oblivious to the coming flood in Noah’s day until it started to rain, many will be oblivious to the coming Tribulation Period in our day until the Rapture happens.

After almost 2,000 years of being off the Promised Land and scattered to other nations, the return of Israel was implausible, and most Christians (including their pastors) are unaware of the significance of Israel’s return.

Here are some articles that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near.

One, concerning the destruction of Damascus, Syria, in one night at the end of the age (Isa. 17): on Sept. 12, 2024, it was reported that elite Israeli forces helicoptered into Syria and attacked an underground, Iranian-backed Hezbollah facility that reportedly produced surface-to-air missiles and chemical weapons (poison gases).

Israeli troops entered the facility, captured 2 to 4 Iranians who were taken back to Israel for questioning, captured critical equipment and documents, planted explosives, blew up the building, and safely returned to Israel.

(More: On Sept. 15, 2024, it was reported that the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen are deploying forces to Syria in preparation for an attack on Israel.)

(More: According to a U.S. State Dept. Report on Sept. 16, 2024, the Biden administration sidestepped sanctions on Iran in 2023 and increased trade with Iran by 43%. Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons that will be a threat to many nations and is funding several dangerous terrorist groups that are trying to destroy Israel; refers to the U.S. as the Great Satan; and the Biden-Harris State Dept. has increased their income.)

Two, concerning all nations turning against Israel and the decline of America at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, legendary U.S. lawyer, Harvard Law professor, and author Alan Dershowitz said Kamala Harris won the presidential debate with former Pres. Trump and that Israel should prepare for the possibility of a Harris presidency.

Dershowitz added that Israel may receive less support from the U.S. than it has in the past, and Israel may have to become more self-reliant.

(My opinion: Israel must become more Jehovah-reliant.)

(More: On Sept. 12, 2024, it was reported that Canada is blocking $60 million of arms sales to Israel.)

Three, concerning Jerusalem being a cup of trembling and a burdensome stone for the world at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, it was reported that Yahya Sinwar said,

• Hamas will stand firm against Israel and remain loyal to the blood of the martyrs.
• Hamas will continue its resistance until the expulsion of the occupation (Israel) from our land and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.

Four, concerning an increase in wars and rumors of wars at the end of the age: on Sept. 12, 2024, Russia’s Pres. Vladimir Putin warned the West and NATO that they will be in a war with Russia if they provide Ukraine with missiles that are used against targets inside Russia.

(More: On Sept. 13, 2024, Russia’s ambassador to the U.N. formally notified the U.N. Security Council that if the US/UK Approved Western Weapons Strikes Deep into Russia – a “State of War” would exist. Ten minutes later, China’s Defense Minister announced that “China will militarily support Russia if NATO attacks Russia.”)

(More: On Sept. 16, 2024, Russia’s Pres. Putin issued a decree to increase the Russian military staffing level to a total of 2,389,130 personnel, including 1,500,000 military personnel. This is an increase of about 180,000 people and the third increase since Russia’s war with Ukraine started.)

(More: On Sept. 17, 2024, it was reported that the death toll in the 2 ½ year Russia-Ukraine war has now reached about one million people.)

Five, concerning wars and rumors of wars and the destruction of Lebanon at the end of the age: following Hezbollah’s barrage of about 40 rockets from Lebanon into Israel on Sept. 15, 2024, it was reported that Israel dropped leaflets on southern Lebanon that said:

• Hezbollah is firing from your area; you must leave your homes immediately, move north of the town of Al-Khiam by 4:00 P.M., and do not return until the end of the war. Anyone found in this area after this hour will be considered a terrorist element.

Six, concerning a departure from the faith and a one-world religion at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, Pope Francis said every religion is a way to God.

The Bible says there is only one way (accepting Jesus as one’s Lord and Saviour.).

In 2019, Roman Catholic Bishop Athanasius Schneider accused the Vatican of betraying Jesus Christ as the only Saviour of mankind.

It appears to me that he is right.

Seven, concerning an increase in pestilence and deceit at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, it was reported that Florida’s Surgeon General advised those 65 and older with underlying health conditions to avoid taking mRNA vaccines because there is a lack of clinical trial data and the fact that the federal government is not requiring producers to demonstrate that the vaccines are effective.

Eight, concerning a worthless peace treaty in the Middle East and the division of Israel: on Sept. 13, 2024, Spain hosted a meeting with E.U. and Muslim nations on ways to implement the two-state solution in the Middle East.

Israel was not invited.

Nine, concerning Jerusalem being a cup of Trembling and a burdensome stone for the entire world at the end of the age: on Sept. 27, 2024, Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu will address the U.N. General Assembly to try to stave off a vote to adopt several proposed anti-Israel resolutions.

Ten, concerning the possible corruption of the FBI and CIA, world government, and the effort to prevent the re-election of Trump at any cost: on Sept. 15, 2024, a long-time Democrat doner and known Trump hater who had a Biden-Harris sticker on his pick-up truck in Hawaii (Ryan Wesley Routh) is under investigation for possibly attempting to assassinate Trump in Florida.

• How can Routh, who has been living in Hawaii with a girlfriend for several years, vote Democrat in N. Carolina if the elections are honest?
• How can Routh, who doesn’t have a job, afford to travel to Ukraine, N. Carolina, Florida, etc.?
• How can Routh legally buy a gun when court records show more than 100 criminal accounts have been filed against Routh in N. Carolina?
• Why was Routh running around freely in the U.S. when he was convicted of possessing a weapon of mass destruction in 2002?

On Sept. 16, 2024, Florida Gov. DeSantis announced that he will not rely on the U.S. government to investigate this incident.

DeSantis posted this on X: Florida will take charge of looking into the matter, stating that the American people deserve the truth.

(FYI: Some people are concerned that this may not be the last attempt on Trump’s life.)

On Sept. 16, 2024, Trump said, “I will never surrender.”

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

Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2024 (Day 341) The two-hundred eighty-sixth day of the resumed war. Day 128 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israel released a document found on Sinwar’s computer showing that one of his now-deceased commanders reported a heavy loss of troops and weapons.
• About 100 rockets were fired at Israel from Lebanon in one hour, and a little later, about 40 more were fired at Israel from Lebanon.
• A retiring Israeli commander said defeating Hamas could take another year.

Thursday, Sept. 12, 2024 (Day 342) The two-hundred eighty-seventh day of the resumed war. Day 129 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israel declared that it has defeated the Hamas military brigade in Rafah.

Friday, Sept. 13, 2024 (Day 343) The two-hundred eighty-eighth day of the resumed war. Day 130 of the attack on Rafah.

• Netanyahu asked his cabinet to make returning the residents of northern Israel to their homes a goal of the war. He believes it will be a long and costly war.
• A senior advisor to Pres. Biden will visit Israel on Monday to try to de-escalate the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah.
• Hamas has stolen so much of the humanitarian aid that has been sent to Gaza that it is struggling to find warehouse space to store it.

Saturday, Sept. 14, 2024 (Day 344) The two-hundred eighty-ninth day of the resumed war. Day 131 of the attack on Rafah.

• This morning, Hezbollah fired 55 rockets, missiles, and drones at Israel from Israel.
• If Israel gets in an all-out war with Hezbollah, Israel may ultimately have to try to wipe out Hezbollah in Lebanon as it has done to Hamas in Gaza.

Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024 (Day 345) The two-hundred ninetieth day of the resumed war. Day 132 of the attack on Rafah.

• The Houthis claimed responsibility for launching a hypersonic missile at Tel Aviv (more than 1,200 miles away). The missile landed in an open area, but Israel said it will extract a heavy price for the attack.

Monday, Sept. 16, 2024 (Day 346) The two-hundred ninety-first day of the resumed war. Day 133 of the attack on Rafah.

• The number of U.S. officials who believe Israel’s war with Hezbollah in Lebanon will have to spread before there is a ceasefire is increasing.
• Saudi Arabia said the Biden administration is not doing enough to halt the Houthi attacks on shipping in the Red Sea.

Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2024 (Day 347) The two-hundred ninety-second day of the resumed war. Day 134 of the attack on Rafah.

• Hezbollah terrorists carry pagers that have lithium batteries that can smoke, melt, and catch fire if overheated. Today, 11 people were killed, and about 2,750 were injured (400 in critical condition; about 500 lost their eyesight) when pagers all over Lebanon suddenly exploded. Hezbollah blamed Israel and said they will retaliate. In Syria, 19 Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corp members were killed, and about 150 were injured. Russia and Jordan condemned the attack.
• S. Sec. of State Blinken is back in Egypt to try to draft another ceasefire proposal and get all the hostages released.

Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2024 (Day 348) The two-hundred ninety-third day of the resumed war. Day 135 of the attack on Rafah.

• There was a second wave of wireless communication devices (radios, walkie-talkies, cell phones, fingerprint devices, devices powered by solar energy and others) blowing up across Lebanon and especially in Beirut. At least 3 people were killed, and hundreds were injured.

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.

On Sept. 2, 2024, John Bellam posted an excellent article on his website called “Bible Prophecy Information.”

He is just a small sample of what Bellam said:

>For almost 20 centuries, the prophetic signs of Christ’s return were so rare and sporadic that they were like a stray raindrop falling from a mostly clear sky. Something could be felt, but no one was sure what it was because the conditions in the atmosphere did not indicate rain was imminent. Starting in about 1897, however, the prophetic clouds began to gather more abundantly, and now, in 2024, the world is being hit with end times signs so powerful they are more resembling meteor showers than rain showers. What was the impetus for this end-times explosion of signs? How can we be sure that what we are witnessing is the fulfillment of the last days’ prophesies of the Bible? The answer can be summed up in one word. ISRAEL!

>Hal Lindsey has referred to Israel as “God’s divine timepiece because we can tell where we are in history by what is happening with that tiny Jewish nation. So… back to the first paragraph of this article: for centuries we could not tell exactly where we were in history because, after AD 70, Israel was not there.

>May 14, 1948, was the day Israel was reborn as a nation. No other conquered nation has ever had such a thing happen after 2 millennia.

>This was the great sign the world needed to know where we are on God’s prophetic timeline.

>Israel is right where God planned for them to be at this moment in time. They are not abandoned. They are not an afterthought. They are not there by pure chance. They are not replaced, and they are not rejected. They are regathered, and God is using them to finish history and bring His precious and mighty Son to the throne of David to rule the entire world and fulfill all the remaining prophecies. God used them to bring the Messiah the first time, and He is using them to bring the Messiah again the second time. Israel’s glory is just ahead. But just like all of us, she must humble herself to the only Savior that God promised way back in Genesis 3:15. The storm is approaching fast. And Israel will soon fulfill all Her intended role.

Bellam’s article is long, but it is loaded with useful information.

Here is a link. https://www.rev310.net/post/israel?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

Here are some reports that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near.

One, concerning the possibility of the Rapture occurring at the sound of the Great Blast (last trump) on a future Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah) I Cor. 15:51-52; I Thess. 4:13-18; Rev. 4:1-2): I have been asked when is the Feast of Trumpets in 2024?

We do not know that the Rapture will happen in 2024, but we do know that the Jews will blow the trumpet 100 times on Oct. 3-4, 2024, and the Great Blast (100th trump; last trump) will be on October 4 at 6:19 pm in Israel (10:19 am Central Time in the U.S.).

Two, concerning world government: in early Sept. 2024, it was reported that an undercover journalist secretly recorded a UN official (from the Office of Legal Affairs) expressing his opinion that UN officials are terrified at the prospect of Trump being elected again.

According to the article, the UN official said (my words for simplicity):

• UN officials desire to transform the UN into a world government.
• Trump opposes world government and wants to make America a sovereign nation again.
• Pulling the U.S. out of the UN would cause the UN to lose about one-fourth of its income, and that could lead to the collapse of the UN.
• Trump’s desire to close America’s borders is a threat to the borderless world.
• Trump has signaled that he will withdraw the U.S. from the World Health Organization (WHO) and possibly NATO (if nations do not pay their dues).
• The UN Office of Legal Affairs is preparing to bring Trump before a UN human rights Tribunal if he is elected and goes rogue.

(FYI: Here is a link to an especially important video about who is running America. It is 49 min. long, but it is extremely important. Please watch if you can.)

https://agendaweekly.com/the-council-that-rules-america/

Three, concerning world government: on Sept. 9, 2024, it was reported that the UN will meet on Sept. 22-23, 2024, to ask the nations to sign a Pact for the Future (UN 2.0) that says:

>We, the Heads of State and Government, representing the peoples of the world, have gathered at United Nations Headquarters to protect the needs and interests of present and future generations through the actions in this Pact for the Future,” the document begins.

>We recognize that the multilateral system and its institutions, with the United Nations and its Charter at the centre, must be strengthened to keep pace with a changing world.

>We reaffirm our unwavering commitment to the UN, its charter, its purposes, its principles, and Agenda 2030. They vow to comply with the UN’s International Court of Justice and promise to reform the international financial architecture.

>We commend ongoing reform efforts and call for even more urgent and ambitious action to ensure that the international financial architecture becomes more efficient, more equitable, fit for the world of today and responsive to the challenges faced by developing countries in closing the SDG financing gap. The reform of the international financial architecture should place the 2030 Agenda at its centre, with an unwavering commitment to investing in the eradication of poverty in all its forms and dimensions.

>Member states will deepen United Nations’ engagement with national parliaments in United Nations intergovernmental bodies and processes in accordance with national legislation, including through building on the efforts of the United Nations and Inter-Parliamentary Union to engage parliamentarians to maintain support for the implementation of relevant UN agreements and resolutions.

As I understand this, they want to develop a new global financial system and to bind the nations into transforming the UN into a global government.

(FYI: As far as I know, the UN and globalist goal is still to establish a world government by 2030 or sooner if possible.)

Four, concerning world government: on Sept. 5, 2024, award-winning international journalist Alex Newman reported that 26 Republican governors sent a joint letter to Pres. Biden that says:

>The International Health Regulations and the International Pandemic Accord (or treaty) being negotiated by governments and the WHO grant unprecedented and unconstitutional powers over the United States and its people to the UN agency.

>These proposed changes could drastically change the role of governors in response to their charge as the state health officials.

>The objective of these instruments is to empower the WHO, particularly its uncontrollable Director-General, with the authority to restrict the rights of U.S. citizens, including freedoms such as speech, privacy, travel, choice of medical care, and informed consent, thus violating our Constitution’s core principles.

>As governors, we affirm that public health policy is a matter reserved for the states, not the federal government, and certainly not international bodies like the WHO.

>We are committed to resisting any attempts to transfer authority to the WHO over public policy affecting our citizens or any efforts by the WHO to assert such authority over them.

>Put simply, Republican Governors will not comply.

(My opinion: It would take an extremely dangerous threat to the U.S. to get more than half of the governors to send a letter to the President of the U.S. that says we will not comply.)

Five, concerning a worthless peace treaty in the Middle East that could mark the beginning of the Tribulation Period (I Thess. 5:3), dividing the Promised Land, and triggering the Battle of Armageddon (Joel 3:2): on Sept. 5, 2024, Kamala Harris’ vice-pres. pick, Tim Walz, said:

• We (the U.S.) can’t allow what’s happened in Gaza to happen.
• The Palestinian people have every right to life and liberty themselves.
• Israel’s government should be pushed to accept a Palestinian State.
• Getting a ceasefire with the return of the hostages and then moving toward a sustainable two-state solution is the only way forward.

The Bible says God made a covenant to give all the Promised Land to Israel forever (Gen. 17:7-8), and He promised to bless those that bless Israel and to curse those that curse Israel (Gen. 12:1-3).

(My opinion: The U.S. might be able to force a peace treaty on Israel, but the U.S. cannot force God to accept it.)

(More: On Sept. 8, 2024, the PA asked the UN Gen. Assembly to pass a resolution to expel the Jews from Judea and Samaria. On Sept. 9, 2024, Israel’s foreign min. said, “If the Palestinian Authority acts against Israel in complete contradiction to the commitments it undertook in the interim arrangements that were signed, Israel will act in the same way and stop all cooperation with the PA and bring about its dissolution.”)

Six, concerning corruption in the Democrat Party: during the 2016 and 2020 presidential election, Democrats accused Republicans of colluding with the Russians to sway the outcome.

During the 2020 presidential election, Democrats and many in the media called the Hunter Biden laptop story Russian disinformation, and they pressured social media to censor it (Zuckerberg has now admitted in writing that he was pressured).

Joe Biden and the FBI knew that the laptop story was true, but 51 intel experts signed a document that said the Russians made up the story.

Anyway, on Sept. 4, 2024, Biden administration officials indicted 2 Russian workers and seized their RT (Russia Today) network for reporting non-Western views (stories that Democrats want censored).

U.S. investigators accused them of favoring former Pres. Trump over his rival Kamala Harris in the upcoming election.

The next day (Sept. 5, 2024), Russian Pres. Putin said he supports Harris.

Putin said Biden was his favorite because he was more predictable than Trump, but Biden dropped out of the race, so he now supports Harris.

Seven, concerning deceit, the possibility of illegals voting in the next election, and perhaps the government running out of money and having to shut down before the next election:

In July of this year, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives passed a bill called the Save Act to require individuals to show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in elections for federal office, and it pushed states to remove non-citizens from voter rolls.

The Democrat-controlled Senate refused to consider the bill; they have allowed millions of illegals into this country, and they are acting like the Save Act doesn’t exist.

The Biden administration is about to run out of money before the election, and they want Congress to approve a new short-term spending bill by the end of Sept.

Republicans are willing to approve a new short-term spending bill, but they want the Save Act attached so only U.S. citizens can vote in federal elections.

On Sept. 8, 2024, Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said he will not allow the Save Act to be attached to the short-term spending bill because preventing illegal aliens from voting in the federal election is “Republican extremism.”

If he would, he could allow a vote on the July Save Act that is not attached to the short-term spending bill, but he won’t.

If the Republicans insist on the Save Act being attached to the short-term spending bill, he is threatening to not allow the Senate to vote on it and to blame Republicans for a government shutdown.

(My opinion: America should not allow millions of illegal aliens to decide who is president of the U.S.)

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

Wednesday, Sept. 4, 2024 (Day 334) The two-hundred seventy-ninth day of the resumed war. Day 121 of the attack on Rafah.

• Hezbollah fired more than 100 rockets at northern Israel.
• Hamas rejected America’s ceasefire proposals and demanded that the U.S. force Israel to accept its terms.
• A Biden official said Hamas is threatening to murder more hostages.
• Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu said Israel needs to control the Philadelphi corridor, not just to prevent weapons smuggling into Gaza, but to keep Hamas from moving hostages out of Gaza and then to Iran. (He based this on documents Israeli troops found in a tunnel when they found the 6 murdered hostages.)

Thursday, Sept. 5, 2024 (Day 335) The two-hundred-eightieth day of the resumed war. Day 122 of the attack on Rafah.

• Trump said that if Harris wins, terrorists will wage an unceasing war to drive Jews out of the holy land.

Friday, Sept. 6, 2024 (Day 336) The two-hundred eighty-first day of the resumed war. Day 123 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israel destroyed an explosives lab hidden under a mosque in the West Bank.
• Israel destroyed a Hamas command and control center located in an abandoned school. Operating from civilian structures is a violation of international law; Muslims systematically violate it, but the international community ignores their violations.
• An Israeli military official said Israel is preparing to operate deeper inside Lebanon.

Saturday, Sept. 7, 2024 (Day 337) The two-hundred eighty-second day of the resumed war. Day 124 of the attack on Rafah.

• Turkey’s Pres. Erdogan called on the Islamic nations to form an alliance to stop Israel’s expansionism.
• About 500,000 people demonstrated in Tel Aviv to get Israel to agree to a ceasefire.

Sunday, Sept. 8, 2024 (Day 338) The two-hundred eighty-third day of the resumed war. Day 125 of the attack on Rafah.

• Hezbollah fired more than 50 rockets from Lebanon into Israel.
• A terrorist from Jordan killed 3 Israeli police at the border crossing between Jordan and Israel.
• Israel struck an Iranian research site in Syria, killed at least 14, and wounded 46 others.
• S. and UK officials warned that ties between Russia and Iran are deepening.
• Israel said the chance of a hostage deal with Hamas is close to zero.

Monday, Sept. 9, 2024 (Day 339) The two-hundred eighty-fourth day of the resumed war. Day 126 of the attack on Rafah.

• Based on forensic evidence, Israel said the 4 murdered male hostages that they found in a tunnel (they found 4 males and 2 females) fought with their captors before all 6 were killed.
• S. and Israeli military officials met to discuss cooperation on ways to deal with threats posed by Iran and Hezbollah.

Tuesday, Sept. 10, 2024 (Day 340) The two-hundred eighty-fifth day of the resumed war. Day 127 of the attack on Rafah.

• Israel killed 3 senior Hamas leaders hiding in a command center in a Gaza humanitarian zone, and the international and PA media are outraged.
• Israel found 2 Hamas terrorists hiding in a UN convoy that was delivering humanitarian aid.
• Israel offered safe passage to Yahya Sinwar and his family in exchange for the release of all the hostages.
• Israel said Hamas no longer exists as a military formation, and it is now fighting a guerilla war against 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.
