By Dan
This week Russia expressed an interest in becoming a part of the European Union. If this occurs the enemy to the north of Israel will be bigger than ever. It's been known for a long time that Russia will be the "Gog" prophesized in EZ: 38 and if it were to join the EU it would be even more of a threat.
Meanwhile this week Syria announced that it has began indirect negotiations with Israel for a peace initiative. One article reported that this would be "bliss" for the nations involved here. The two nations have never had the ability to roam freely between Syria, Israel, Palestine, Jordan and Egypt because of the diplomatic status of their nations. This would be a big change for both sides.
It's been said that when Christ returns that Israel would be at peace with her neighbors, well this would help fulfill that and at the same time the Gog alliance is getting stronger and setting the stage for Ezekiel : 38 . All of the pieces are coming together faster and faster.

Happy 60th Israel
On May 14, 2008 Israel will be 60 years old. I want to take this opportunity to tell you a little about Israels history.
The Israelites or Jewish people can trace their origin back to Abraham. Abraham, his son Isaac and his grandson Jacob, also known as Israel, are the patriarchs of the Israelites. All of them lived in the land, (Israel), that God gave to them. God promised Abraham that He would make him a great nation, (Gen. 12:2).
God changed Jacobs name to Israel. He had twelve sons that became the twelve tribes of Israel and the beginning of a great nation. Jacobs next to the youngest son, Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers, who were very jealous of him. Joseph ended up in Egypt and after 13 years of slavery he became second in command next to Pharaoh.
A great famine came and eventually Jacob and his sons and their children went to Egypt to live in the land of Goshen, (Gen. 46:34). There Joseph provided everything they needed. Eventually Joseph died and the Israelites had multiplied and became a great people. The Egyptians started dealing horribly with the Israelites and turned them into slaves.
After 400 years of slavery God sent Moses to lead His people out of Egypt and back to the land He had promised to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Through many miracles God brought the people out of Egypt.
Soon after the Exodus, Moses under God's command gave to the people of Israel the ten commandments and the Torah. After 40 years in the Sinai desert Joshua that led them into the promised land.
Then came the time of the Kings. Saul was the very first king. But, due to disobedience the kingdom was given to David. King David, the line in which our Lord Jesus Christ comes from, made Jerusalem the capitol of Israel. Solomon, his son built the first temple during his reign as King.
Shortly after Solomon's death Israel became divided into two kingdoms, Israel and Judah.
from 722-720BC - Assyria attacked Israel and ten tribes exiled. (the ten lost tribes)
In 586BC the Babylonians (modern day Iraq), conquered Judah destroying the first temple and Jerusalem. Most of the Jewish people were exiled.
Under the Persian rule Israel was allowed to run their own state.
538BC-142BC-Persian and Hellenistic periods
538BC-515BC-Many Jews return from Babylonia; Temple rebuilt.
332BC-Land conquered by Alexander the Great; Hellenistic rule.
166BC-160BC-Maccabean (Hasmonean) revolt against restrictions on practice of Judaism and desecration of the Temple
142BC-129BC-Jewish autonomy under Hasmoneans.
129BC-63BC-Jewish independence under Hasmonean monarchy.
63BC-Jerusalem captured by Roman general, Pompey.
63-4 BC-Herod, Roman vassal king, rules the Land of Israel;Temple in Jerusalem refurbished
20-33-Ministry of Jesus of Nazareth
66-Jewish revolt against the Romans
70-Destruction of Jerusalem and Second Temple.
73-Last stand of Jews at Masada.
132-135-Bar Kokhba uprising against Rome.
210-Codification of Jewish oral law (Mishna) completed.
313-636 - Byzantine rule
636-1099 - Arab rule
1099-1291-Crusader domination
1291-1516 -Mamluk rule
1517-1917-Ottoman rule
1918-1948-British rule
STATE OF ISRAEL
In 1948 on May 14Th, Israel became an independent nation again after more then 2000 years scattered throughout the world. This was a miracle of God. Having been brought to the brink of extinction by the horrors of the Holocaust, facing persecution around the world, and surrounded by their enemies, the Jewish people gathered together in Israel and declared themselves a nation in a single day. The United States recognized Israel as a nation on that same day, and Israel’s victories in the wars since have solidified their place among the nations of the world. Isa. 66:8-9.
Long ago the Bible predicted these events would transpire in the last days:
1) The gathering of the Jews into their homeland
2) The rebirth of Israel in a single day
3) The rebirth of Israel in the year 1948
4) Israel’s possession of Jerusalem
5) The nations of the earth aligned against Israel
6) The war of Gog / Magog
7) The rebuilding of the Jewish Temple
Five of these seven prophetic events have already been fulfilled, and the final two are certain to follow.
Those who study the Word of God recognize the restoration of Israel as the primary sign of the end of the age. Jesus promised the generation that witnessed this event would also witness His return. Matthew 24:34.
Israel is 60 years old. How long is a generation? Is it 60 years? Jesus said no one would know the day or hour, but we would know the season. It all started when Israel became a nation again. I'm not saying the rapture is coming this year, "no man knows the day or hour of the return of Jesus." I'm saying all the signs are here. Look up for our redemption draws nigh! Praise God! Even so come Lord Jesus!
Take a few minutes to wish Israel a Happy 60th. Thank you and God bless you.

The beginning of sorrows
In Matthew 24 Jesus is telling his disciples the things that would take place just before he came. I like the fact that he used "birth pains" to describe this time.
Matt. 24:8
All these are the beginning of sorrows. KJV
All these are but the beginning of the birth pains. English Standard Version
When a woman goes into labor her pain starts off slowly, but the closer she gets to the delivery, the more frequent the pains are, until they are steady and the child is born. This is how it is now. We have always had wars and rumors of wars. We've always had earthquakes and storms. We've always had sicknesses, diseases, pestilences so forth. But, not with the frequency and intensity we have been feeling lately.
The frequency and intensity of these things has increased tremendously. We are having more earthquakes of 6.0 or higher than ever before. Hurricanes are severe. Tornado's are destroying everything in there path and are coming at times that aren't considered tornado season. Floods, drought, fires seem to be an everyday news story. New strains of the flu, antibiotic resistant germs that are mutating, old diseases are coming back stronger.
Crime is increasing, just turn on the news. All you hear about is murder, robberies, assaults, domestic violence, child abuse. These crimes seem to get more hideous each day. About a month ago three different states during the same week had three different people jumping off bridges with their children into on coming traffic. One of the incidences happened right here in Massachusetts. The woman picked up her niece and nephew stripped them and herself and walked out into oncoming traffic on a major highway, they were killed instantly.
We have the school shootings, kids killing kids, parents killing there children, the abuse of the elderly. Jesus said as in the days of Noah so shall it be just before His coming.
There is such an uncertainty in the world today. Financially things are real bad. The dollar isn't worth the paper it is printed on. Our oil prices are through the roof. People are losing their homes. People are scared, scared of what is to come.
We have oil at $110.00 per barrel. At the gas pumps this is about $3.10 for regular, depending on where you live and $4.19 for diesel fuel. Our food, clothing, goods, so forth are shipped by truck around the country. Now with the price of diesel fuel so high what do you think is going to happen to the price of food and other necessities we need? Everything goes up in price.
Revelation tells us there will come a time when it will cost us a days wages for a loaf of bread. We're just about there.
The labor pains are getting closer. We're in the finale hours. Soon we will hear Jesus calling us to meet Him in the sky.

Atheist Billboard
A billboard in Reynoldsburg Ohio Reads - Imagine No Religion - Freedom From Religion Foundation.
This is a non-profit organization for atheists and agnostics. They claim to be the largest group of atheists and agnostics in North America. They like to take on Bible - Believing Christians.
Following is a letter Dan wrote to this group of people letting them know how offensive their billboard is to us as christians. We decided to share this letter with our readers.
We love Jesus Christ - He is Lord and He is coming back soon!!! This is another sign that we are living in the last days.
I am very disappointed that foundations like yours exists today. This country was founded on religion, it is the reason our forefathers left their homelands to come here. You see, this time you put that billboard in the wrong place. Someone will stand up and have it removed one way or another. This is pathetic, really pathetic. Where do you think you would be without religion? What are you hoping to accomplish by placing these things all over? You see soon; Jesus will return for the believers. When that happens your billboard and you will still be here. You can say how you got your word out, you can say that you won, but the 7 years that follow that day will be worse than ANY DAY you ever experienced with religion in the gorvernment. I hope that late some night someone climbs up there, has some paint or just scrapes it off. I hope a church group feels permiscuous one night and paints a great big cross on that sign. That would be what I stand for. You people are nuts, absolutely NUTS!!!! I bet this is true; I bet last Christmas when your company paid you for the "Christmas Holiday", you kept the money. A true believer in your cause would have returned the money to their employer stating that you did not want that money because it is from a religious holiday that you do not suppot. Here's what I want to do, where your billboard is, there is a billboard to the right, actually they are connected. I want to lease it. I will simply put on it the following: "WANT TO GO TO HELL? LOOK TO THE LEFT" "WANT TO GO TO HEAVEN, FOLLOW CHRIST".
Make no mistake, the last days are here, this is not the time for you to be putting up signs and yelling no religion, this is a time to prepare for the second coming. It draws closer each day. Prophecy is being fulfilled right this very minute. "In the last days there will be an abundance of mockers and scoffers" You are those mockers and scoffers. Want more insight, look to http://www.rapturecall.com/ . There you will find the truth in what is happening today. Your cause is a lost one, you too are lost. Seek Him before it's too late. Like I said above, it will be you and your billboards after the rapture.
P.S. This Christmas I will have a nativity scene in my front yard as I did last year, feel free to stop by!! Groups like yours have threatened City hall in my city and they took down their nativity, I will go to jail if I have to but will never take mine down!!! Crazy people like you encourage me to make it larger, maybe real animals in mine this year!!! Like I said, feel free to stop by!!!

What will 2008 hold?
By Dan Hamblin
2007 was an exciting year for end time's prophecy. Many records were set for weather activity and we saw a peace deal begin for Israel. We witnessed the beginning of what looks like a recession in the US economy and the US dollar is being dropped by several countries. We also witnessed the European Union gather a lot of momentum. (AKA the revived Roman Empire)
2008 has been relatively quiet thus far, the economy is still in a downward spiral, the peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians doesn't seem to be going anywhere, and tension is rising even more between Iran and Israel. Last week a Palestinian official called for the EU to get involved in the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians. I believe this will happen and be more effective than an American involvement as the EU resides in that region and can have more influence.
2008 will undoubtedly be a land mark year for the EU as they appoint a president and a Foreign Minister for their alliance. Make no mistake this will be the government that the anti-Christ will come from. Also the gog alliance which looks to involve Russia, China and Iran thus far is getting stronger.
2008 is going to be a year to watch carefully as more pieces of the puzzle comes together. We are watching prophecy unfold before our very eyes.
