We found the survival of the Jews miraculous…but
what’s happening now?
After only 60 years the democratic State of
Israel enjoys a dynamic economy leading in: research & development,
banking, agriculture, horticulture, electronics, military technology, medical
equipment, pharmaceuticals….
After all that, would you say that Israel has turned back to Abraham’s God?

Some Jews today are converting to Christianity
but you’ll find the common attitude is: “The Jewish Agency is profoundly grateful to
the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem for your significant support of
our aliyah (resettlement) and absorption activities. This important investment
will be instrumental in keeping Israel’s promise as a safe haven and thriving
homeland for all Jews.”
Safety and prosperity,
hey?...mmm, time will tell.
So how about we focus on just 3 critical issues for Israel today,
beginning with something very dear to us all - especially Jews…….MONEY!
On 1st
June, 2000, Israel became an associate member of the European Union.
But why?...Israel is in
Asia – not Europe.
Being surrounded by hostile neighbours on all sides, who won’t even
recognise your right to exist, let alone trade with you, Israel is desperate
for friends while spending up to 24% of Gross Domestic Product on defense.
So which direction would you look to cultivate friendship for trade and a defense backstop?

35% of Israel’s exports go to the European Union as its most important
regional customer. Israel’s problem is that Europe now boycotts any products
from territories occupied since the 6-Day War in 1967….
…and don’t forget
Europe is becoming increasingly Muslim!
Which brings us to the big ticket item…GAS!
In
fulfilment of Moses’ prophecy, Israel is sitting on at least 122 trillion cubic
feet of gas and 1.7 million barrels of oil under the Mediterranean – so who do they plan to export 60% to?
Europe?
Of course!...starting with Greece and Cyprus. Meanwhile Europe is
becoming increasingly dependent on Russia and muslim North Africa for its fuel
supplies.
Wow!...what a volatile
mix!...money, armaments, gas, oil, politics, religion….all it needs is something
to ignite it.
How about a red hot piece of real estate?

Space did not permit more detail: Revelation 13 & 17 and Daniel 2, 7, 8 & 9 taught us that the Roman Empire would revive: the European Union. Israel will soon sign a 7 year defense pact with EU but it will fail them according to Isaiah 28 and there will be great loss of life as per Zechariah 13.
