Hamas is an organization dedicated to the destruction of the Jews so that the land of Israel might be theirs alone, from the river to the sea. The Palestinian Authority in the West Bank celebrates in Hamas' horrific pogrom against Jews and calls on its people to join in the bloodshed. The "innocent civilians" have voted these bloodthirsty people into power, and call for the wrath of God to measure out their destruction. He who touches Israel touches the apple of His eye. God will soon bring peace to Israel, and when Russia comes with the nations, "to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, To take a spoil, and to take a prey..." God will send his Son to save His people and judge those who have come against them.Here is a video version of this week's edition featuring additional content:
The war between Israel and the Hamas terrorists is capturing all of the headlines again this week.In this episode of Bible in the News, we dive deep into what some of the recent developments mean in the light of Bible prophecy.
In the 21st century on October 7th, 2023 our world witnessed a horrific pogrom where. Israeli men, women, children, and elderly were brutally murdered in the most grotesque manner. The devastating count of those killed is reported to be over 1300, with thousands more injured. Not since the Holocaust have so many Jews been massacred in one day. And whereas the Nazis did much to hide their crimes some Hamas members streamed their rampage live for the world to see.
The last week has been distressing, shocking and dramatic as Israel has been plunged into an terrible crisis and forced to go to war for its existence. This is David Billington. I've created this post on Bible in the News, as a place to put articles or videos of particular interest to our readers on an ongoing basis. Regular weekly updates to Bible in the News will continue as normal, God willing.
American financial support for Ukraine was stripped from the US budget this past week, but that is only the tip of the iceberg for Ukraine. The decline of its population and simply running out of soldiers is causing its ability to defend itself to collapse. Even the world's media must concede the battle is all but lost. The Bible has clearly stated Russia will be supreme in Europe at the time of the end. We are witnessing the angelic hand at work in bringing about God's purpose with the world in leading it to Armageddon, where it will be humbled.
We are living in the time of the end, in perilous times when the love of self rules the day. Bible based morality is under attack around the planet and parents are losing their ability to teach Biblical morality in their own homes. They are outlawed from “training up their children in the way they should go” and having say in their own children’s morality – at any age.
Ever since the Abraham Accords were originally announced in the summer of 2020, when the UAE and Bahrain made peace and recognized Israel, there’s been a trickle of rumors regarding the possibility of Saudi Arabia, the spiritual heart of the Muslim faith, doing the same and making peace and beginning relations with the Jewish State. Over the last few weeks this trickle of rumors has become a torrent with leaders of the two countries opening talking about the fact and acknowledging that talks are ongoing.
(Audio to be added later today.) On September 9, the G20 leaders unveiled an Israel-Saudi Arabia rail link plan, which is "part of a broader project to build a transport link between India, the Middle East and Europe,” according to the Globes news website. Globes explains:
Last week the Pope made a video address to the 10th All-Russian Catholic Youth Assembly in St Petersburg in Friday, during which in he urged the young people to view themselves as descendants of the Russian Empire.
We caneexpect Saudi Arabia to be working in and around the region of Israel and the Middle East when the great Northern Invasion prophesied in the Bible before Christ's return takes place. Recent events indicate a warming of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia is happening now.
Global population levels are in serious, steep, accelerating and seemingly irreversible declines with profound consequences likely, while Israel continues to grow apace.
There is a Generation...“There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother. There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness. There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up. There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.”
This week we have the AUKUS alliance back in the news, with the largest military exercises between the UK, Australia and the U.S. taking place. In a press release by the UK Ministry of Defence, Ben Wallace (the UK’s defence secretary) announced that since July 22nd the AUKUS nations have been conducting a military exercise testing their joint capabilities across land, sea, air and also digital domains. More than 34,000 troops were involved in the exercises that saw UK Royal Marines Commando Force embarked on HMAS Adelaide, which is Australia’s largest warship. The exercise involved ship to shore landings among other military readiness assessments.
This week the commemoration of Tisha B’Av, was kept by the Jewish people. What is Tisha B’Av? It is the 9th day of the month of Av on the Jewish calendar, when the first and second temples were destroyed. The first by the Babylonians and the second by the Romans in AD 70. This is based on history, Jewish sources and indicated in scripture. According to Jewish sources, other dark events, such as the evil report of the twelve spies also happened on this tragic day.
Among the many events that have captured the attention of believers in Bible prophecy in recent years is the British Mandate over Palestine. Its anniversary is this week. The British were given control over Palestine 101 years ago on July 24, 1922. In this weeks Bible in the news we explore the significance of the British Mandate in light of Bible prophecy.
