THE CUTTING EDGE

NEWS BRIEF: "Sharon: Arafat is the enemy of the entire free world", by Aluf Ben, Ha'aretz Correspondent, April 1, 2002.

"Prime Minister Ariel Sharon deemed Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat 'Israel's enemy and the enemy of the entire free world,' in a brief televised address to the nation Sunday evening. Sharon accused Arafat of leading a campaign of 'terror' against Israel and vowed to wage an 'uncompromising war' to crush it. He said that Israel is 'at war, a war against terror. We must fight this terrorism, in an uncompromising war to uproot these savages, to dismantle their infrastructure because there is no compromise with terrorists."

With these fighting words, Prime Minister Sharon cast the focus of his military campaign against the Palestinian Authority in the same terms as did George W. Bush following the 9/11 attacks: on terrorism. Like President Bush, Sharon stated that he had ordered the IDF to wage an "uncompromising war" that would literally "crush" Arafat. Israel called up approximately 30,000 reservists and sent in tanks, bulldozers, trucks, and helicopters to back up thousands of Israeli soldiers on foot.

Israel invaded key towns and villages in the West Bank and Gaza, and did, indeed, deliver a crushing blow. Let us now examine some of the blows Israel delivered against the Palestinians.

NEWS BRIEF: "U.S. Envoy Breaks Arafat Isolation", BBC News Middle East, 5 April, 2002.

"A US envoy has met besieged Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat at his battered West Bank headquarters as Israel steps up its military offensive. Anthony Zinni met Mr Arafat for 90 minutes in Ramallah in an effort to establish conditions for a ceasefire based on US peace proposals. He was the first foreign diplomat allowed to visit Mr Arafat since Israeli tanks smashed into the Palestinian leader's compound a week ago. At least 15 Palestinians were killed during intense fighting in the north of the West Bank on Friday, including nine in Nablus ... Israeli troops still control nearly all of the West Bank and have declared the occupied towns to be closed military zones out of bounds to journalists."

Yassir Arafat was immediately surrounded by Israeli armored units that smashed the outer portico of his compound, so that bulldozers immediately began to crash down the majority of the building complex. However, tanks and bulldozers stopped just short of Arafat's inner offices, preferring to hold him hostage than to kill or capture him. Arafat was at first denied water, food, and electricity, but was then allowed to have supplies. However, sanitary conditions were reported to be deteriorating badly.

NEWS BRIEF: "REVIEW OF EVENTS IN REGION AND INTELLIGENCE REPORTS", by DEBKAfile 7 April 2002.

"In the coming week, the protagonists in the current Middle East crisis will race against time to bring matters to a head before US secretary of state Colin Powell arrives on his new mission on behalf of President George W. Bush. The Israelis, the Palestinians, Syria, Iraq, Iran and the Hizballah, will all try to establish their mastery of the situation. Israel will do its best to stay in step with Washington, while all the other parties do what they can to defeat US goals and Powell’s mission.

The events in store in the days to come fall under four headings:
A. The war activity on two primary fronts: West Bank cities and the Israel-Lebanese frontier;
B. The campaign of terror pursued by the Palestinians and their Arab allies, principally the Hizballah and al Qaeda;
C. The undercover war waged around the Middle East
D. The slide towards a comprehensive regional eruption"

This report then notes the effort Israel has been exerting against the Palestinian "terror infrastructure".

"Israel’s tanks, infantry, special forces and air units have in ten days retaken the West Bank and gained control of major portions of its seven main towns: Nablus, Jenin, Tulkarm, Qalqilya, Ramallah, Bethlehem and Hebron. The Palestinian Authority has virtually buckled as a ruling entity, while its security organs’ command centers, communications, logistics and supply systems have been disabled.

The Palestinian terrorist mechanisms - the Fatah-Tanzim, the al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the Hamas and Jihad Islami - are seriously impaired; scores of senior terror commanders have been killed and 2000 terrorists and their officers captured. The logistics and manufacturing facilities that turned out and distributed hundreds of suicide bomb belts and booby-trapped vehicles, mortars and rockets, have been wiped out, as have the Palestinian presses that turned out many millions of counterfeit US dollars and Israeli shekels for funding terror operations."

Thus, we can see that, supposedly, the Palestinian Authority no longer exerts any meaningful control and that so many "senior terror commanders" and their terrorists have been killed and/or captured that the terrorist threat to Israel has greatly eased. The following story seems to imply that the IDF action has resulted in a virtual halt to terror.

NEWS BRIEF: "Pullout will begin in terror-free towns", The Jerusalem Post, April 8, 2002.

"WASHINGTON - Israeli officials said they do not expect a head-on collision with the US over President George W. Bush's call, repeated by Bush's National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice yesterday, for Israel to pull out of the Palestinian cities immediately. The officials said Israel would begin withdrawing from those Palestinian towns where the IDF believes it has largely accomplished its goals, senior Israeli diplomatic officials said yesterday."

Israel was paying a price for this war.

NEWS BRIEF: 'Entire Jenin street was giant booby-trap", By Margot Dudkevitch, The Jerusalem Post, April 10, 2002.

"TEL AVIV (April 10) - The casualties the army suffered in the Jenin refugee camp yesterday were caused by bombs planted by terrorists and exploded by a suicide bomber in a well-planned ambush, the IDF said yesterday. OC Central Command Maj.-Gen. Yitzhak Eitan said in a briefing yesterday that fighting in the camp is some of the fiercest of the past week. 'The terrorists continue to refuse our calls asking them to surrender,' he said. 'Terrorists affiliated with Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Fatah pay no attention to the local civilian population, and use them as human shields in their fight against us. They are determined to fight us. [But] we will continue to battle with them until we are victorious. We are more determined than they are."

Once again, diplomatic propaganda churned out story after story, linking the IDF action with a universal war on terror. In the United Sates, commentaries began to appear stating that Israel's war was America's war, that if Israel did not eradicate terror now, the U.S. would soon find its cities and towns under attack. Every single day, this propaganda continued, until every American probably was thoroughly convinced that Israel was invading these Palestinian towns and cities in order to root out terror and the terrorists that made suicide bombings possible ... Eitan noted that many of the houses and alleyways in the camp are boobytrapped, adding that soldiers have uncovered numerous bomb factories and enormous amounts of explosives."

Israeli Prime Minister Sharon continued to strike a shrill note:

NEWS BRIEF: "Sharon: Israel Offensive to Continue", The Associated Press, April 9, 2002.

"It was a tough campaign, a campaign that we are continuing ... until we will fulfill the decision of the Cabinet that calls for the destruction of the infrastructure of the terror groups,' Sharon said in remarks broadcast on Israel Television. 'This is a battle for the survival of the Jewish people, for survival of the state of Israel,' Sharon said."

You cannot fault a nation trying to defend itself. As we have stated many times earlier, Americans would not tolerate 20 years of bloody terror in our streets utilizing suicide bombers. Long, long ago, we would have demanded that whatever action was required to root out this disaster be taken, whoever had to be killed, be killed. But, each and every time that Israel suffered a bloody suicide attack, American presidents and their officials would demand "restraint" from Israel.

However, terror continued to strike:

NEWS BRIEF: "Pressure On Arafat", ABCNews online, April 12, 2002.

"... Powell condemned the suicide attack at a crowded Jerusalem market that killed six Israelis and wounded more than 80. A Palestinian woman blew herself up at a bus stop near the Mahane Yehuda market just hours before the start of the Jewish Sabbath. Israeli radio identified the bomber as Nidal Daraghmeh, a woman from the besieged Palestinian refugee camp in the West Bank town of Jenin. The Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, a militant Palestinian organization that has claimed responsibility for three earlier attacks by female suicide bombers, also claimed responsibility for this attack. Witnesses described horrific scenes of devastation as medical services rushed to the busy outdoor market area."

The fact that this suicide bomber was female also marked a continued Palestinian effort to utilize women in such a role, as Israeli citizens and authority figures still regard females more leniently than they do males in terms of being suicide bombers.

REGIONAL DEVELOPMENTS OCCURRING SIMULTANEOUSLY

NEWS BRIEF: "Syria moving troops out of harm's way", Stratfor Intelligence, April 5, 2002.

"Syrian soldiers in western Lebanon have begun moving toward strongholds in the eastern half of the country, at a time when border tensions with Israel are at their highest point in years ... Syrian troops began leaving some positions in western Lebanon April 3 and moving toward strongholds in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon. The redeployment is expected to last a week and comes amid the worst violence on the Israeli-Lebanese border in over a year. The movement is unexpected and is happening during a time of extreme tension in the region."

Syria has long deployed along the border with Israel, both in Syria itself and along certain portions of the Lebanese border. Stratfor postulated that Syria might just be moving its troops out of harms way, as the title of this article implies; however, I think Syria is simply reorganizing according to a planned military strategy worked out in conjunction with Iraq, Iran, and Egypt for the next Arab-Israeli war.

The following news article of four years ago explains this probability succinctly:

NEWS BRIEF: ""The Next Arab-Israeli War", by Emanuel A. Winston, A Middle East Analyst and Commentator, The Jewish Press, Week of January 31, 1997, Vol. XLVII, No. 5, p. 43 and 53.

"In mid-January, a terrifying, although not surprising, report was revealed to the public. Dated December 10, 1996, compiled and researched by The U.S. House of Representatives' Task Force On Terrorism And Unconventional Warfare, it is entitled, 'Approaching the New Cycle of Arab-Israeli Fighting' ... In brief, this report tells us that such nations as Syria, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, and Egypt are planning and building for a final, devastating war of annihilation against Israel. This includes acquiring nuclear, biological and chemical weapons (NBC) in a mix with conventional weapons, e.g., tanks, aircraft, and soldiers, all in massive, overwhelming numbers." [P. 43]

""Pakistan will have fulfilled its role as incubator for the Islamic Nuclear Bomb. It is expected that Syria will be the planned spark that ignites the war by bringing its troops close to Israel's borders on the Golan and Lebanon, provoking Israel into a no-choice preemptive strike. This will provide the justification for the other war pact members to join Syria while giving the West an excuse to not protest the Arab armies' assault."

Notice in this scenario the role Syria is to play; she is the one whose armies will initiate the planned strike. Is this deployment a part of the final working out of this plan? We shall just have to wait to see. However, military and diplomatic developments seem to be working out in accordance with this plan. Consider:

NEWS BRIEF: "Hezbollah plays for high stakes", BBC News Middle East, by Christopher Hack, 3 April 2002.

"Fears are growing of a new military front opening in the Middle East, across Israel's northern border with Lebanon.
Such a development would turn the conflict into a more dangerous regional war, probably drawing in both Lebanon and Syria, and perhaps other nations. In recent days, guerrillas of the Iranian-backed Lebanese Hezbollah movement have increased their sporadic attacks on Israeli positions across a disputed area of the border ... In the past year, Hezbollah is believed to have built up a large arsenal of missiles in southern Lebanon, which if launched could paralyze northern Israel, reaching as far south as Haifa."

Intelligence sources have repeatedly stated over the past five years that the Arab enemy states of Israel realize they have no hope of defeating the Israeli Defense Force (IDF); rather, their strategy is to launch an opening salvo of missiles and artillery armed with unconventional warheads that will annihilate civilian population centers. After all, Israeli Jews number only 6 million, while the Arab protagonists number 270 million. Even if the Arabs lose over one-half their population, their leadership reckons that is not too high a price to pay for finally eradicating Israel from the map. The remaining 135 million Arabs would be able to repopulate the Middle East. Thus, it is highly significant that Syria and Hezbollah are active on the northern border of Israel and are beginning to fire missiles.

Hezbollah has been increasing its sporadic missile fire ever since this April 3 date. Israel has carefully responded with tit-for-tat missile and air strikes. Hezbollah may just be testing Israeli capability at this point, in preparation for the final massive assault.

NEWS BRIEF: "Countdown to Israel's 'Doom from Babylon': Iran, Iraq, Syria, Hezbollah, Palestinians set to initiate attack." DEBKAfile, carried in WorldNetDaily, April 12, 2002.

"The minute Secretary of State Colin Powell departs the region empty-handed, Washington's Middle East foes – Iran, Iraq, Syria, Hezbollah and the Palestinians – are set to initiate a coordinated military action with a view to reducing the United States to a powerless spectator ... the Bush team has not missed the burgeoning operational partnership between Palestinians and Hezbollah and their combined buildup with Iraq and Iran – with Syria's tacit blessing – for military action. This bloc's first goal is to ward off a U.S. military assault on Iraq, while at the same time rocking pro-American Arab regimes by rousing violent anti-government demonstrations in their cities.

After that, according to DEBKAfile's U.S. and Israeli intelligence sources, Iran and Iraq mean to stoke Middle East tensions, making sure that they strike first before America fires a shot in its campaign against Baghdad. This strike is expected to take the form of an Iraqi missile attack on Israel."

Thus, all of Israel's enemies to her north and east are boldly building up to a massive military strike against Israel they hope will annihilate the tiny nation. Israel knows the plan and she can see the forces building up around her borders that will initiate the actual working out of this plan.

How soon might this plan be activated? Let us return to this DEBKAfile Intelligence report.

"The point of maximum danger will arrive at the end of April. The countdown towards that moment begins Monday when the Iranian army and Revolutionary Guards start a large-scale five-day military exercise called 'Wadat', or 'Unity', in the Persian Gulf. Iranian naval and air units will rehearse the seizure of the strategic Straits of Hormuz and impose a mock blockade on Gulf oil shipping bound for Western and Japanese ports through the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean. They also will practice amphibious landings on the islands of Abu Musa, Greater Tunb and Lesser Tunb in the mouth of Straits of Hormuz. About 50,000 soldiers – paratroops, marines, naval commandos and members of amphibious armored units – are gathered at the port of Bandar Abbas, with a fleet of landing craft, fast missile boats, submarines and aircraft at their disposal. These units will rehearse the forcible seizure of the Gulf islands ... There are angles to the new partnership between the former foes, Iraq and Iran, aside from the use of Baghdad as a coordination center or transit point for Iranian military flights to Damascus."

These significant military forces are changing from a passive posture to a forward deployed stature. These changes literally mean that an Arab attack is more than likely; it may now be inevitable! However, the quote of the hour comes from Iraq:

"From April 24, Israel stands in grave danger of an Iraqi missile attack, launched for the sake of saving the Palestinians. This threat was signaled by Qusai Hussein, Saddam's son and commander of the elite Republican Guards, when he declared on Wednesday: 'The Iraqi people is ready to fight Israel alongside the Palestinians, but its geographical location makes it hard to join the struggle. … Still, the Jews know that their doom will come from Babylon'." [Ibid.]

Yes, folks, modern-day Iraq is ancient Babylon, a country whose Latter Days doom is foretold in Isaiah 13:4-13.

Even Egypt is changing military posture.

NEWS BRIEF: "Egypt Prepares Commanders For Regional War", Middle East Newsline, April 15, 2002.

"CAIRO [MENL] -- Egypt is preparing senior military commanders for the prospect of a regional war.

"The preparations have included high-level government briefings of army commanders and a review of weapons and supplies of the major military commands. Over the weekend, Egyptian Defense Minister Hussein Tantawi gathered commanders and senior officers of the Second and Third armies. Both armies, which have completed a series of exercises over the past year, are deployed in northeastern Egypt as well as in the Sinai Peninsula near the Israeli border."

TIME FOR A DIFFERENT EXAMINATION OF THIS ISRAELI MILITARY ACTION AGAINST ARAFAT!

Thus, as Israel is attempting to "crush" the Palestinian terrorist infrastructure, the Arab armies surrounding her are steadily building up toward all-out war. Israel could see and measure the military buildup coming against her from every side. The more observant Jews could relate to King David as he lamented in Psalm 27:3-4

"Though a host encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, [even then] in this will I be confident. One thing have I asked of the lord, that will I seek, inquire for, and insistently require: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord [in His presence] all the days of my life, to behold and gaze upon the beauty [the sweet attractiveness and the delightful loveliness of the Lord and to meditate, consider, and inquire] in His temple. For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter ..." [Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Bible Commentary].

As you consider this steady buildup toward war around Israel, you might be tempted to believe that this Arab army buildup was a consequence of the Israeli military action against the Palestinian "terrorist infrastructure". However, the reality might just be 180 degrees in the opposite direction [Read NEWS1558, "Breaking Out of the Mental Box: Learning To Think In The Opposite Direction"].

The Israeli military action might just be the result of the Israeli Intelligence seeing the Arab buildup around its borders! Once the civilian leadership of Israel realized that the planned Arab attack on Israel was set, and the armies were maneuvering into position to initiate the attack, they might have decided to carry out a preemptive strike on Arafat's Palestinian Authority in order to remove one of the fronts facing her.

What, you may ask, does Arafat and his Palestinian Authority have to with this coming war? Most people do not realize the major position Arafat and his merry men have to play in this upcoming Arab-Israeli war, so let us go back in time to discover the facts.

NEWS BRIEF: "The Next Arab-Israeli War", by Emanuel A. Winston, A Middle East Analyst and Commentator, The Jewish Press, Week of January 31, 1997, Vol. XLVII, No. 5, p. 43 and 53. [Already referenced, above, with a pertinent quote listed and discussed. But, now, let us turn to a later portion of this article]

"Within Israel and on its borders, Arafat's 'Palestinians' will cause planned havoc. Recall how Arafat's 'Palestinians' living in Kuwait, acting on orders as a fifth column, collaborated with Saddam Hussein's army to capture Kuwait. Recall how the Palestinian Arabs joined in the pillage and rape, side by side with Iraqis soldiers ... In this coming war, Arafat's Palestinian Arab Police, in coordination with Hamas, will begin blowing up key targets, road junctions, preventing mobilization of Israel's civilian reserve soldiers from reaching their units at the front. In Judea and Samaria, roads will be mined and Israeli access blocked by shoulder-fired anti-tank missiles now smuggled in under the benign neglect of the government of Israel."

"This low level conflict is intended to tactically hinder Israel's heavy battle armor and artillery from reaching the Jordan Valley, where a coalition of Arab armies will advance under their mobile missile umbrella. The Palestinian Arabs already have shoulder fired ground-to-air missiles, some of which are U.S. Stingers smuggled from Afghanistan through Iran to Arafat's mix of armed police and terrorist groups. These deadly missiles will cause heavy losses to Israeli aircraft trying to slow the advance of Arab troops across the Jordan Valley. The entire West Bank under Arab control will act as a barrier to delay mobilization of Israeli forces, allowing Arab forces to spread out and move west toward Jerusalem."

"During these internal assaults, Syria, Iraq, and Iran will launch a mix of missiles at Israel's cities and military targets. Egypt has been accumulating Scud missiles from North Korea, and is likely to join the salvo. [Note: To get a full Biblical accounting of the prophecies concerning the destruction of these Arab nations, go to NEWS1026]. Israeli civilians make up most of the standby reserve military, and, therefore, hitting the cities can be equally effective as hitting a prepared, hardened military target. Airfields will be targeted by missiles with sub-munitions (small bomblets) which destroy runways, to keep Israeli aircraft from taking off or landing. Missiles may be loaded with gas and chemicals so the runways could not be quickly repaired, and killing troops and civilians."

Thus, you can see that Arafat and his Palestinian paramilitary forces are assigned a vital role in the beginning stages of this conflict. They are to attack Israeli forces from within the country, preventing Israel's heavy battle armor and artillery from reach the Jordan Valley to meet the "coalition of Arab armies". Palestinians are to attack Israeli airplanes with Stinger missiles being fired from the hills and from buildings surrounding the airbases from which military aircraft is taking off. In this war scenario, the Palestinians could greatly aid their Muslim brethren from Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, and Egypt who will be simultaneously attacking from all points of Israel's borders!

If Arafat's paramilitary could actually carry out such a mission successfully, they could be instrumental in preventing Israel from effectively countering the combined Arab army attack. The Israeli government and its military are very well aware of this plan, and could be expected to mount an effective preemptive attack on the Palestinians once they sensed that the coalition Arab forces were mobilizing for an all-out attack.

Therefore, it is highly likely, in my opinion, that we may just have witnessed the opening salvo in this coming Arab-Israeli war! Attacking under the guise of rooting out terrorism, Israel might just have launched its preemptive strike on the Palestinian forces they expect to initiate hostilities in accordance with this Arab attack plan, described above.

If Israel was, indeed, launching a preemptive military strike against the Palestinian paramilitary in order to prevent it from carrying out its assigned military objectives at the outset of the coming war, then this would explain the heavy handedness of Israeli forces as they advanced into the village and towns. In their minds, they were launching a preemptive military strike, not just rooting out terror cells.

We believe this to be the case. As Israeli Military Intelligence measured the building military might of the Arab forces surrounding Israel, they must have concluded that the time was right to neutralize the Palestinian paramilitary and thus attempt to deprive the Arab armies of their planned first assault tactic.

Did the IDF succeed in neutralizing the Palestinian paramilitary so that they could not effectively hit Israel in the first hours of the planned Arab army attack? We will have no way of knowing, until the battle is joined; then, we shall see whether Israel's early strike paid off. Arafat is said to have over 40,000 paramilitary men trained and ready to fight; did Israel neutralize that many men, and did they seize their huge stores of munitions? When news reports stated that over 2,000 Palestinian officers and men surrendered, was that force the key element of the Palestinian paramilitary that was supposed to attack Israel from within?

Once again, we shall just have to wait to see.

SIGNIFICANCE OF APRIL 24

In the article entitled, "Doom Shall Come From Iraq", we read the opinion of DEBKAfile Intelligence Review that April 24 is a very important date in this entire scenario. It seemed to me that April 24 was mentioned by someone else in connection with Iraq, so I checked back in our Daily News articles to see if that date popped up. Actually, the date previously mentioned in connection with Iraq and its arsenal of Weapons of Mass Destruction turned out to be April 25! Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: ""The Balance of Terror and the Red Mercury Nightmare" by J. R. Nyquist, Geopolitical Global Analysis, March 26, 2002.

"The White House is considering the use of tactical nuclear weapons and planning the break-up of Iraq … in a broad military campaign set now for April."

And why the hurry?

"Surely, only a very grave threat would inspire such urgency in U.S. policy-makers. DEBKA confirms that the reason for the U.S. urgency has to do with Iraq's possession of nuclear warheads, though DEBKA does not confirm that these are "s-megaton" micro nuclear [Red Mercury] devices. Why the U.S. would be concerned with large, more cumbersome and detectable weapons is a question that readers will have to sort for themselves. According to DEBKA, the main reason for a nuclear blitzkrieg against Iraq in April would be to 'locate nuclear devices believed to be in the possession of Saddam Hussein.' The idea would then be to destroy the weapons before they could be used to trigger a nuclear or biological holocaust. Judging by the tempo of U.S. moves, Iraq's nuclear capability will probably become effective some time after April 25. That is why, even though U.S. military authorities confess that we are unready to attack Iraq, an attack must go forward nonetheless. U.S. officials are also said to be planning nuclear strikes that would eliminate the top Iraqi leadership ... DEBKA further alleges that Vice President Richard Cheney received intelligence during his recent Middle East trip that Iraq had already transferred nuclear weapons to Al Qaeda, along with weaponized smallpox. Cheney was supposedly told that some of these munitions may have been smuggled into the United States, Israel and Saudi Arabia."

If Russia has given Iraq these miniaturized "s-megaton" Red Mercury bombs the size of a large softball, then you can bet that Iraq has given them to Al Qaeda, a charge Nyquist later makes in his article. Evidently, Iraqi capability must be reaching its operational stage on or about April 24-25. If this is the case, you can expect an American-Israeli preemptive strike before then; however, if the Arab leadership commanding this entire assault gets wind of an American-Israeli preemptive strike before April 24, then you just might see an even earlier Arab strike. This early Arab strike might not include nuclear weapons, if Iraq is not ready yet; but, such an early Arab attack might include missiles and artillery outfitted with biological and/or chemical weapons.

In this latter regard, a very good friend of mine is a retired U.S. Army Major. He called me last week to tell me that a retired Army friend of his had just been abruptly called back into regular service. What concerned this friend of mine was that this man's expertise was Chemical Munitions. This expertise would be needed only if the U.S. Army was going to launch a chemical attack, or if they were expecting to have to defend against one. The sudden call-up out of retirement of a man of this specialty seemed ominous in light of events in the Middle East.

Clearly, the world edges ever closer to the date God has set for the final Birth Pangs of Matthew 24 to commence, so that Antichrist can arise. [Read NEWS1408 for a full understanding of the Birth Pangs prophesied by our Lord to "give birth" to Antichrist].

Are you spiritually ready? Is your family? Are you adequately protecting your loved ones? This is the reason for this ministry, to enable you to first understand the peril facing you, and then help you develop strategies to warn and protect your loved ones. Once you have been thoroughly trained, you can also use your knowledge as a means to open the door of discussion with an unsaved person. I have been able to use it many times, and have seen people come to Jesus Christ as a result. These perilous times are also a time when we can reach many souls for Jesus Christ, making an eternal difference.

If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, but have been very lukewarm in your spiritual walk with Him, you need to immediately ask Him for forgiveness and for renewal. He will instantly forgive you, and fill your heart with the joy of the Holy Spirit. Then, you need to begin a daily walk of prayer and personal Bible Study.

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, but have come to realize His reality and the approaching End of the Age, and want to accept His FREE Gift of Eternal Life, you can also do so now, in the privacy of your home. Once you accept Him as Savior, you are spiritually Born Again, and are as assured of Heaven as if you were already there. Then, you can rest assured that the Kingdom of Antichrist will not touch you spiritually.

If you would like to become Born Again, turn to our Salvation Page now.

We hope you have been blessed by this ministry, which seeks to educate and warn people, so that they can see the coming New World Order -- Kingdom of Antichrist -- in their daily news.

Finally, we would love to hear from you.
