Shalom Partner and Friend of Israel,

5783 (2023) is the number 3 in the Hebrew Alphabet and pictures a Camel – so we are currently in the Biblical "Year of the Camel" …which will only end in September on Rosh HaShanah. Have you ever wondered what the Lord’s warning in this Scripture meant? "Again, I tell you, it is easier for a CAMEL to pass through the eye of a needle than for a RICH man to enter the kingdom of God." – Matthew 19:24. (see also Mark 10:23).

The Rich man is compared to the camel going through the eye of the needle? This means it is impossible for a rich man to go to heaven by the same token that it is impossible for a camel to enter the eye of a needle. Why? What the Bible is saying is that there are rich or extremely wealthy who only invest in themselves and greedily desire to use their wealth to obtain more and more power …and certainly today we see this clearly played out even more so since 2020 with the world’s most wealthy Elites - “Oligarchs” and WEF, WHO, UN etc., and they use their riches to control their puppet world leaders to do their bidding. Why? For they then control the world through their wealth and power …and in fact they want to take the place of Almighty God and His Creation!

Once we have grasped that Israel is at the centre of God’s dealings with mankind, we have the KEY to understanding the direction of world affairs today! And, through the Prophecies of Scripture we can discern a clear pattern in current events taking place in our End-time Generation. From the very first when God brought Israel out of captivity in Egypt, He then spoke of “the place” where He would set His Name ...and that chosen place was Jerusalem. It was there that David was established as king over the first Kingdom of God on earth …and Yeshua (Jesus) Himself, David’s greater son, called Jerusalem “the City of the Great King.” The promise that lay behind these words includes the following Prophecy; “They shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and ALL the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the Name of the LORD, to Jerusalem,” - Jeremiah 3:17.

Did you know that the United Judaism Party Ultra-Orthodox Jews (anti Yeshua – Jesus Christ and anti-Messianic Jews) in Israel have their symbol a camel and the “Gimmel” and was first performed as an ultra-religious party in 1992? Though small in party they have grown in the Knesset (Israeli Government) and are pushing for the Third Temple to be built and are working with the Sanhedrin priests who already have the required red heifers in place for sacrifice that must be 2 years old and WILL be old enough for slaughter by Passover 2024 or even sooner! This connects to the coming events in Jerusalem – not only with a Davidic King, BUT his performing the Red Heifer Sacrifice which is the “Covenant of blood with many” to prepare the Jews for their 3^rd-Temple in Jerusalem and to start the temple service and sacrifice once again.

The things Yeshua (Jesus) told the of Sanhedrin are details that apply to the NEW ones! Yes, this is a picture of our Lord’s Words revealed before our eyes. Truly we are witnessing Last Day Prophecy coming together in our “time – “the fig tree generation! The Rapture must happen before these things come to pass; “Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed” - I Corinthians 15:51-52. And, so are we are truly living in these very exciting times when Christ comes for His people; “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first” - I Thessalonians 4:16).

After having looked carefully at the exciting event - Harpazo / Rapture) we see that “…the Lord HIMSELF will descend from heaven” – here it confirms something very interesting …that the Lord Himself MUST come for His Bride – the true Church …but this also brings our attention to “…with a shout, with the voice of the archangel” – it is like “with a field command!” Whether the “shout” belongs to the Lord Himself or to an “archangel” is not clear in this verse. So, let us look at the deeper meaning of this verse for a moment… Who is the archangel? It is Michael (his name means – “who is as God.” In Daniel 10:13 he is identified as “Michael Your prince” which is proven in; Daniel 12:1 – “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your (God) people (Israel), will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people – everyone whose name is found written in the book – will be delivered. At that time? It means at the time of the END – Last Days. Here we see that the Lord must come for His bride personally! And accompanied by archangel Michael? He will NOT come down on earth but we WILL meet Him in the clouds of Heaven. Then after the “Marriage Supper of the Lamb” – Christ will come back to Israel, and His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives. Israel will then experience salvation and the Nations of the world judged!

The Bible does not specifically indicate if ONLY believers will hear the trumpet …however, we believe everyone will hear it. The reason we think that is because the other trumpets of the End-times in Revelation 8-11 seem to be audible to those on earth and so we believe it is likely that everyone will hear this trumpet sound as well! By the way, that “trumpet blast” will serve as another testimony to the truthfulness of God’s Word, and will be a warning for those (unbelievers) “left behind” to repent of their sin. Time will tell and as we also say we do not set dates …but 2,000 years ago it is happening again – “the RICH man and the Camel” - in the Biblical Year 5783 - 2023; “the year of the Gimmel!” Maranatha Yeshua!

However, it does NOT mean that ALL RICH people will NOT go to heaven - because Yeshua (Jesus) can and ultimately did provide a way for rich people and ALL who believe in Him to enter God's Kingdom. Yes, there are very generous wealthy people today who love God, are true believers, love, and support God’s land – Israel, help the underprivileged and this kindness is symbolic of our loving Abba – Father. It is a matter of choice and obedience to God.

For a moment let us look at the following Parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man (Luke 16:19-31); (Did you notice here that the rich man’s name is not even mentioned?)

Here there are two men, one wealthy, who has everything this life can offer, and the other poor and sick and maltreated by society. This man, Lazarus, has nothing of this world’s goods, yet when he dies, we learn that he had FAITH in God and thus was received into heaven. We learn that when the rich man dies, however, he did not have faith in God …so all his earthly success amounted to nothing of Eternal value (Luke 12:20) so at death he was sent to hell to reap the fruit of the life he had lived.

This parable is NOT teaching us that to be POOR means automatically going to heaven - as though poverty is the requirement for Salvation NOR does it teach that wealth will bar someone from Heaven… Here we are presented with the reality of Hell of torment of hunger and thirst for all eternity …and it is to be tormented by loneliness for all eternity as well as to be in darkness and pain for all of eternity and there is NO end to this. That is what the Bible teaches! While we are living in end times time is running out …and certainly, to make this easier to understand that ETERNITY means forever - suffering torturously in hell, here we see the rich man crying out to God …but it was too late for him!

Some say, “How could a loving God send people to hell?” God does NOT send anyone to there. Hell was made for the Devil – Satan and his fallen angels …NOT people (Matthew 25:41). Yeshua - Jesus Christ came and died to pay for the whole world’s sin so that NO one would have to die and stand before God in their sin (John 3:16). Christ literally says to the ENTIRE human race… “You can only go to hell over My dead body.” God has given everyone the ability to choose and does not send people to hell. We must always pray for our unsaved loved ones!

Now let us look Biblically at what “Gimmel” the Hebrew Number 3 and the 3^rd letter of the Hebrew Alphabet depicted pictorially by a CAMEL (in ancient times a source of travel for wealthy people doing trade) and correlates to “a generous man” that gives from his abundance. If "Aleph" (1^st letter) the leader was ABBA Father God …and "Bet" (2^nd letter) Yeshua (Jesus) - the House, the tent pole and the cornerstone. Then "Gimmel" (3^rd letter) - the Holy Spirit, the comforter, who gives us freely "spiritual gifts" …and carries our burdens on earth!  

An amazing depiction of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament is where; Abraham (The Father), sent out his Senior Servant (Holy Spirit) to get "a bride," Rebekah (the true believing Church), for his Son, Isaac (Yeshua) (Genesis 24:6-10). There were 10 camels and so the servant must have been sitting on the first 1, as the Holy Spirit that comes with the 9 spiritual gifts. (The 9 other camels behind him bearing gifts for the bride!) God did not send His Holy Spirit empty-handed, but He came with "gifts," to us His Church - "the bride" for the only eligible Bridegroom – Yeshua (Jesus), who has broken the curse of the law by death, the ONE and only, heir to the entire universe - Christ!

In Bible times, Camels were a sign of WEALTH and POWER! Camels had the ability to contain a lot of (spiritual) water, travel long distances through deserts (empty spiritual places), and carry people's burdens… The original Hebrew picture of the “Gimmel” is represented as a CAMEL …but is made up of; “Vav” (6) and the “Yod” (10) is also attached and is sticking out. Numbers are all important in Hebrew! Zayin (7) is formed by “crowning” a Vav. Zayin represents a sword! Zayin is a paradoxical word, since it means "weapon" or "sword," …but also derives from the Hebrew “root word” meaning "sustenance" or "nourishment." The root (zan) appears in words like (mazon), meaning "food." Notice that the word for bread, “lechem,” is contained in the Hebrew word for war, “milchamah!”

But how is FOOD or nourishment related to the sword? The sword of “spiritual warfare” is needed for our continued nourishment (lest the enemy prevent us from being filled in the Word of Truth – the Bible). In order to be nourished and at rest in YHVH Yahweh - God, we as true believers MUST effectively engage in “spiritual warfare.” Isn’t it just amazing that today NOT only is there an attack on God, the Bible, Yeshua (Jesus Christ) …but also our food and water too?

Surely the Nations today are under the judgement of God? Today the wealthiest so-called elites are using their riches for power to control the world. When we study further 2023 (the Year of Gimmel- the Camel) we understand more and realise that nothing just happens or is coincidence! So, we see the “Gimmel” is the RICH man walking toward the POOR impoverished man - the “Dalet” to give him something (NOT always good). The root word for “Gimmel” is “Gamal” which means; “to give out” or “to deal” or “to wing” …BUT can also mean JUDGEMENT. So it could be that the “Gimmel” is giving out something good (a blessing) or judgement! “Now out of His Mouth goes a sharp SWORD, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.”- Revelation 19:15.

Have you ever considered that we are now living in a time of draconian leadership even when most people do NOT see this? The Lord Yeshua (Jesus) has promised us that there WILL be a time when they (ungodly) will hate His followers the true believers because of Him; “And you will be HATED by ALL for My Name’s sake. But he who endures to the end WILL be saved.” – Matthew 10:22. Are we seeing the world now moving in that direction? Yes! Bibles are even being labelled as “hate speech” while SIN is celebrated by wicked leaders enforcing laws that are contrary to God and His Word – the Bible. The world is rapidly moving towards closure and the revealing of Antichrist; “He (Antichrist) will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshipped, so that he sets himself up in God’s Temple, proclaiming himself to be God!” – 1 Thessalonians 2:4.

God, is the ONE who reveals ‘mysteries’ in Daniel 2 revealed to King Nebuchadnezzar in a dream the things that will be in the Last Days… Almighty God is the ONE who REMOVES kings and ESTABLISHES kings! But the kingdoms of this world do NOT last forever …and clearly, they are NOT improving or getting better. Nebuchadnezzars dream outlines; four-kingdoms of descending value but increasing strength …except the final form of the FINAL kingdom is NOT only less valuable …BUT also divided of strength and fragility! The image is top-heavy and precarious ending with the LAST generation; “feet of iron mixed with clay” as Daniel interpreted to Nebuchadnezzar; “You saw, O king, and behold, a great image. This image, mighty and of exceeding brightness, stood before you, and its appearance was frightening. The head of this image was of fine gold, its chest, and arms of silver, its middle and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay.” - Daniel 2:31-33.

What could it mean that “the FEET of the statue are a mixture of IRON and CLAY?” “But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase” - Daniel 12:4. Could it mean that what Daniel actually saw was that at the End-time (Last Days) through the increase of knowledge (and technology that had grown substantially especially in the last decade) that “transhumanism,” would occur through (AI) Artificial Intelligence …and that the “IRON represents “Nanotechnology” and “computer software” implanted and mixed into humans” (CLAY)? So, it makes us think - can this even be possible? How can man become as partly iron? “HYBRIDS” are manipulations of technology with the use of the computer as (metal / iron) altering the human DNA “As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.” - Daniel 2:42-43. Almighty GOD created man from the dust of the ground - forming the CLAY from the particles of the earth and God breathed into man the breath of life – His DNA.; “Then the LORD GOD formed a man from the DUST OF THE GROUND and breathed into his nostrils the BREATH OF LIFE, and the man became a living being.” Genesis 2:7

Transhumanism and Pharmakeia (Revelation 18:23) through Science is connected to the End times - "Image of the Beast"… Haven’t you wondered where this is all going? Think for a moment about this …and remember that even King Solomon found life “meaningless” WITHOUT God; “This only have I found: God created mankind upright, but they have gone in search of many schemes” - Ecclesiastes 7:29.

Remember also how in March 2020 the world was deceived and forced (yet voluntary) to be jabbed with MRNA Covid-19 injections? This was a dream of many years of the ungodly Elite Globalists …and since 1992 have planned and waited for the right moment to bring in their One-World-Government or Global Reset and Agenda 2021 (which became Agenda 2030) …and so we now see more clearly that it did NOT just happen overnight!

This Prophecy of Daniel 2 was intended for this future generation… The coming of “transhumanism” has only happened in recent years and in this end times situation. The divided kingdom is NOW unfolding in front of our very own eyes! Haven’t we all seen how the people were divided by their FEAR and FAITH – good and evil? By their beliefs and ideals and even by their vaccination’s status? By climate change agenda? By bodily gender, alterations, and manipulations? The two divided kingdoms are evident! Those who have “eyes to see and ears to hear” and have been open to the Holy Spirit discernment – will know the TRUTH. May these Bible truths lead us to awareness that everything belongs to God! Which kingdom do we choose to belong to and submit our body’s control to? The original CREATION of GOD who created every human out of CLAY by His breathe? Or to Satan’s “transhuman/ Cyborg” creation a modified body DNA mixed with iron? The choice is ours! “The Lord lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be the Lord Yeshua (Jesus) our Rock, and Saviour!” (2 Samuel 22:47)

This Prophecy of Daniel about the kingdoms that would follow long AFTER King Nebuchadnezzar were partly fulfilled …and the LAST final kingdom slowly unfolding! He declared the FALLEN kingdoms in Daniel 8:19-25 (cross reference to Revelation 27:9-14). The earthly kingdoms were associated with METALS …but the LAST divided kingdom was made Up of IRON MIXED WITH CLAY. These Ancient Rulers who contributed as well to the evil infiltration of the bloodlines of humanity. The fulfilment is the last kingdom will very soon arise; Daniel referred this to the future End-times generation. This final KINGDOM IS WITHIN HUMANS - the “iron mixed with clay.” This is no longer a science fiction movie – but a reality!

Until we figure out that the enemy of humanity is “Satan” who is AFTER, humanity created in God’s image then we will never see the bigger picture. Satan is after what GOD has and our bodies are God’s Temples and that is where Satan longs to sit, to reign and declare himself as God! Satan wants to destroy and control the “HOLY TEMPLE” where the “HOLY SPIRIT” dwells in the HEARTS and MINDS of mankind. He cannot subdue it unless he will modify the human creation. It is a kingdom he rules mixed with computer software “iron” and the existing DNA “human-clay!” This is the LAST earthly “kingdom of the beast” - a kingdom within humans and emergence of “transhumanism” and a NEW RESET and order of human life! “I will sweep away everything from the face of the earth,” declares the Lord. “I will sweep away both MAN AND BEAST when I destroy all mankind on the face of the earth,” declares the Lord.” - Zephaniah 1:2-3.

In conclusion these Globalists; W.H.O., W.E.F, U.N., E, U., and wealthy un-elected Elites have made it openly clear that they intend to change the DNA that God created in mankind through MRNA, Nanotechnology and by using G5 to control and thereby turn people into a controlled hybrids – living in 15-minute Cities – own nothing - eat bugs and “be happy!” As true Bible believing followers of Yeshua – Jesus Christ we know that our bodies belong to God and are “TEMPLES of the Holy Spirit and so we have NOTHING to fear!” Globalists Leaders and New World Order Elites and their Liberal cohorts have a godless agenda through LGBTQ by altering what God has ordained for life, families and the human anatomy through transgenderism and have sadly now targeting the youth. This is NOT of God; “Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?  If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.1 Corinthians 3: 16-17. 

Who would have dared to predict the turbulent course we all would encounter just a short 3 years ago and by which the world and the Middle East events are now taking since 2020? Only through right understanding of Bible Prophecy can we even make sense of it all. However, even if we focus closely on day-to-day events, a clear pattern may not always be discernible …but if we stand back for a moment and view the broad-sweep of both the history of Israel and the Middle East …and view current events through the eyes of Ancient Bible Prophets, we can then see a very clear picture emerging.

The world is moving rapidly towards the soon return of Christ to set up the Kingdom of  God on earth… It is that Kingdom of which all the Prophets spoke and in these Last Days which ALL the promises of God will finally be fulfilled. None of us know exactly when Christ’s Kingdom WILL come, nor indeed the exact order of events leading up to it. BUT what we can be certain of is this: the tide of events in this generation is sweeping us towards the great climax of history at breath-taking speed. We can be part of that Kingdom through faith and obedience to the King - the Lord Jesus Christ. There is little time left to prepare.

Remember, that the Bible has warned that the City of Damascus WILL be destroyed sometime in the Last Days as Prophesied in Isaiah 17. The destruction of Damascus may propel the next war and the Psalm 83 War may help start this war too. Whatever may happen, the world will change forever after Gog/Magog War (Ezekiel 38) ...because this is when the whole world WILL know that Almighty God saved Israel from destruction. Many hearts will harden, but many will also come to know Yeshua (Jesus) as Messiah …and Romans 11 will begin to be fulfilled when the Apostle Paul wrote that all Israel shall be saved!

One thing is very clear… In the Middle East the most likely sticking point is the Holy City of JERUSALEM. The city contains ‘holy sites’ of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. But as one writer has said of Judaism; “Its religion is NOT tied to ‘site’ - but to the land, NOT to what happened in Jerusalem BUT to Jerusalem itself!” For Israel, Jerusalem is its Capital City and they will NOT just surrender this Holy City of God to the Palestinians Arabs who are trying to set-up their own “state” and government in Jerusalem claiming it as their capital! BUT there is a DIRE warning for whoever sets their ambitions on God’s City should consider Prophecies such as; Zechariah 12:2-3 where God, Himself, says: “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto ALL the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people; ALL that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though ALL the people of the earth be gathered - together against it.” From this and other Prophecies such as Zechariah 14, Jerusalem is where God has written His Name and belongs to him and it is also the very last place that Israel will give up.

When the invasion of the land comes and it is going to come, a remnant of the Nation will be defending Jerusalem. They will stand on the brink of total defeat. Half of the City will be taken captive but then, as Zechariah 14:3 says; “shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations” At that time Yeshua (Jesus) will be revealed to the Jews as Israel’s Messiah and some at least will submit to His authority. He will replace their unbelieving spirit of self-confidence and stubbornness …with a NEW heart and spirit of trust and obedience in God and His Son, Yeshua.

The RICH man and the Camel… today are those ungodly, greedy, Globalists who by choice are bringing gifts to the Nations of the world NOT of blessing …but using their wealth to obtain power by bioweapons they are secretly creating to be used to depopulate and control humanity. We are living in the times our Lord warned about 2,000 years ago as we watch the Nations align themselves …NOT only against Israel BUT against America, Europe, and the Western Nations! It is NOT by chance that Russia is aligning with Iran and China attempting to bring into play a new currency against the dollar with a coalition of Nations BRICS who also want to form their “New World Order” …and while this is happening Western Globalists Elites have initiated their own plans for their “One-World-Government!” The Nations are being played and the people their “pawns.”

The Bible’s total picture of the close of the present age may be compared to a big jigsaw puzzle… to make the picture complete there are many pieces that MUST come together. In Luke 21:24, Yeshua (Jesus) speaks of Jerusalem as being; “trampled by the Gentiles.” This phase implies that it is, in some deep sense - wrong or unnatural for a Gentile power to have dominion over Jerusalem. From the time of King David onward, God committed the responsibility for caring for this unique City of Jerusalem to the Jewish people. The only reason it has ever passed into other hands is that, through disobedience. However, in Yeshua’s prediction one key word “until” indicates a limit to that period of Gentile denomination! God’s plan for the close of this Age has emerged with great clarity.

Through His Prophetic Word – the Bible, God declared to ALL nations that He intends to re-gather Israel in their own land and restore them to His favour. God has also made it clear that He WILL intervene in Judgement against those Nations who oppress Israel or resist God’s purposes for them… and we can read this clearly in our opening Scripture in Joel 3:1-2. ALL the World Leaders of Nations who have oppressed and persecuted the Jewish people and the Church / Body of Christ will come to naught. Their glory will wither just like that of the flowers and grass.  But the Word of Israel’s God, spoken to them through their own Prophets, stands “eternal and unchanging.”

To the true believers in Yeshua (Jesus Christ) who obey God and bring a message of comfort to Israel, Isaiah 40:9 offers strong encouragement! “In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will NEVER be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever.” Daniel 2:44. Daniel end up interpreting the king’s dream by the declaring the power of God: Daniel 2:45 - “This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands—a ROCK that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces.” God will destroy and punish the evildoers who dismantle His creations. “Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal.” Isaiah 26:4

The "ROCK" is Yeshua (Jesus), who is coming again to destroy and bring to judgement all those under "the kingdom of the beast!" A ROCK is needed to crush all these metals (iron missed with clay) that enslaved humans. We can be comforted as God’s people and be sober NOT to submit our bodies to evil control. We must endure ALL the temporary persecution to save our souls. God’s eyes and ears is set on all of us and we are under His wings of protection. Endure for the kingdom of God is at hand! "Trust in Yeshua (Jesus) and do not worry about tomorrow. It is hard to do that with what we just said… but He has all of this under control. Yeshua promised He will be with us even through to the end. One day in Glory, we WILL be the over-comers though living in one of the most difficult times in human history. The crowns we collect today will be placed at the feet of Yeshua (Jesus) in due time. He loves us more than anything …but these things must take place to fulfil Scripture and give God the Glory! Maranatha Lord!

God’s Word is true! He IS watching to see how the nations are treating His people – Israel. God will have mercy on Israel through Gentile believers acting as mediators towards them! This is one of the most amazing revelations ever given to the Church – an opportunity to do something that carries the highest priority in the heart of God. Yet, sadly, so few have seen the potential and the rewards of serving God in this manner - as agents of mercy to Israel and the Jewish people! Israel was and still is despised today and a despised nation continually turning away from God BUT nothing ever altered the purpose of God for that nation. The despised element is always a noticeable element in the purpose of God. When the Saviour of the world came, He came of that despised nation; like Israel… He Himself was; "despised and rejected by men," And there is that despised element; "…things that are despised God has chosen," 1 Corinthians 1:28. Now, more than at any time is the time to support Israel and the Jewish people - the Lord’s Brethren! We are witnessing the nations and people turning their backs on Israel. Thank you for your prayers and generous financial support especially during these very difficult times. With "lockdown" and difficult "recovery" still lying ahead we ARE reminded that the Wuhan Corona Virus has caused many dire needs and continue to increase here in Israel upon the already most vulnerable! Once again – Thank you!

We hope that you enjoy and become more informed by our work. We serve an awesome God and we are humbled by this opportunity to bring you this information. With Shalom to you and your family always,

John Bunyan once said, "You have never lived successfully until you have done something for someone who can
