ISRAEL IN AN “UNPRECEDENTED” PERIOD OF SECURITY, BUT IRAN CAN ALREADY PRODUCE A NUCLEAR BOMB « Joel Rosenberg’s Weblog

Joel Rosenberg on his blog monitoring developments in the Middle East, and especially with Israel, quotes Gen. Major Amos Yadlin as saying that the "recent security calm in Israel is unprecendented."
There is one major battle that must take place before the appearance of the lawless one, and a seven-year peace treaty with Israel, described in Ezek. 38. One condition that hadn't been met yet, though many have, is that Israel was not living securely. But apparently now they are. Could this be the time, Joel asks, that Ezek. 38 is referring to?

For a great blog and inidcations of the activities of Russia (Gog?), read his blog:

MILITARY INTELLIGENCE CHIEF: ISRAEL IN AN “UNPRECEDENTED” PERIOD OF SECURITY, BUT IRAN CAN ALREADY PRODUCE A NUCLEAR BOMB « Joel Rosenberg’s Weblog

Ayatollah claims Supreme Spiritual Powers as Allah's Voice!

Wow, I don't know if you know how tremendous this is, with the Middle East teetering on the edge of catastrophic war, but any student of Bible prophecy would think of Jesus' words, "When you see these things, look up, for your redemption draws nigh."

Joel Rosenberg comments on this and provides some links on his blog at: http://flashtrafficblog.wordpress.com/feed/

Also of note,  a journalist thanks a former PLO sniper for his recent coming to salvation in Jesus Christ.
This also is noted on Joel's blog. 

To quote from Joel's blog:
It is not often a reporter publicly thanks a former terrorist for helping him to give his life completely to Jesus Christ. But it happened this week. That’s why I commend to you this week’s edition of “Stakelbeck on Terror.” CBN reporter Erick Stakelbeck profiles Tass Saada, a “former Palestinian Muslim sniper who used to work for terror master Yasser Arafat-but now works for Jesus.” Stakelbeck interviews Saada and explains how this one-time radical Muslim “put down his gun and learned to love his greatest enemy: Israel.” Then he publicly thanks Saada for his book, Once An Arafat Man, and shares how reading that book and interviewing Saada led Stakelbeck to a personal relationship with God through faith in Jesus Christ.

Oh, and one more plug for J.R.  He's got a new 'geopolitical' thriller coming out, avaliable now for pre-sale, titled "The Twelth Imam."

"Billy Graham of Iran" tells of God's miracles in Iran

Remember, Abraham was called out of Ur of the Chaldeans (Babylonia, modern Iraq/Iran). Joel Rosenberg is speaking April 13th in San Jose, Ca with Hormuz Shariot about all that God is doing inside the country of Iran. An excerpt of Joel's interview with Hormuz is really profound, I thought I'd share part of it here.



Rosenberg: Why are so many Iranians renouncing Islam and becoming followers of Jesus?

Shariat: The number one reason is the years of prayers of Christians for the people living in the 10/40 window (Iran is at the center of that window). Another reason is that the true nature of Islam has been revealed to many Iranians. Iran is the only country in the world led by clergy. For 31 years, the people of Iran have experienced the implementation of true Islam. Before 1979, they had a romantic view of Islam. They taught that if Islam ruled in Iran, it would be a paradise on earth. They dreamed that with Islamic government, there would not be any more poverty nor injustice. But after 31 years, they have come to realize that there is something fundamentally wrong with Islam itself. They have realized that Islam has not done anything for them individually, neither for their family, and nor for their society. For 31 years, Islam has been forced on them and yet it has not worked. So in reaction to that, they want freedom, and they do not want Islam.

Rosenberg: What can you tell our readers about your ministry, for those who are not familiar with who you are and what you and your team does?


Shariat: We ourselves at Iran Alive Ministries are Muslim Background Believers who have a passion to reach Iran for Christ. Our track record shows that we have been very effective in brining Iranian Muslims to Christ and planting churches among them. After planting several churches in the USA, we have been using satellite TV to bring hundreds of thousands of Iranian Muslims to Christ and have helped plant house churches among them. By His grace we are equipped and positioned to make a tangible impact for Christ in Iran through satellite TV, Internet, and underground church planting. People who need more information about us can visit our website: http://www.iranaliveministries.org/.
