Around 150 Christian friends of Israel in the Netherlands joined with Jewish leaders to protest a motion made by the GreenLeft party in support of the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, The Jerusalem Post reported.

“How would you react if I would say, ‘I embrace the Nazism of Hitler-Germany?’” These were the words spoken by Rabbi Binyomin Jacobs, the chief rabbi of the Netherlands during the demonstration on the doorstep of the national GreenLeft offices in Utrecht.

“A serious mistake, that encourages anti-Semitism,” the rabbi said. “But just like the German ‘Autobahn’ is only a small part of the murderous Nazi-time, the boycott of products from Israel is only a small part of the goal of BDS. BDS stands for the destruction of Israel, not only the boycott of a few products from the so-called occupied territories,” he explained.

Roger van Oordt, director of Christian for Israel, said that the GreenLeft calls BDS a “legitimate means in a justified battle,” that is the first step toward the destruction of the State of Israel.

Christians for Israel also sent a statement to GreenLeft describing the dangers of BDS, and asked the party to distance itself from the poisonous movement.

“We hope that GreenLeft will think about it and stay far away from anti-Semitism,” van Oordt said.

The Dutch GreenLeft party was formed by a merger of four left-wing parties: the Communist Party of the Netherlands, the Pacifist Socialist Party, the Political Party of Radicals and the Evangelical People's Party.

How Evangelicals can cooperate with communists and radicals is a puzzle. In recent years, the malformed party has grown in popularity and has been trying to impose anti-Israel policies on the government of the Netherlands. Why the Dutch think they have something to say about Israel is bizarre, but whatever the reason, the green party want Holland to boycott Israel.

Johnny Enlow: "A Super Bowl Message For Our Day" The Elijah List

Johnny Enlow: "A Super Bowl Message For Our Day"

The Elijah List Feb 15, 2019

From the desk of Steve Shultz:

I really enjoyed having Elizabeth and Johnny Enlow at our recent annual conference last month. There was so much prophetic revelation released from them.

Johnny is one who truly understands the day in which we live as God gives him many prophetic signs that happen in current events.

Johnny shares some profound revelation from the recent 53rd Super Bowl:

This was the 53rd Super Bowl. Psalm 53:1 starts with, "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.' They are corrupt, they have done abominable works..." This is the scenario that is being visibly played out in front of our nation. There is a godless and evil agenda being exposed as it has never been before. 

It is going to a place described in Psalm 53:5, "...For God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you; you have put them to shame, because God has despised them." The exposure is going to include those even dead and gone who were initial building blocks of the "abominable iniquity" now being revealed.

God is cleaning house, so to speak, across the earth. We are going to see much more of this on a large scale. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"A Super Bowl Message For Our Day"

Johnny Enlow, Santa Clarita, CA

Once again, I believe there is an encouraging word for us from this past Super Bowl result, where the New England Patriots defeated the Los Angeles Rams 13-3. I find it always best to wait for the results as almost every detail has an accompanying message for us. I will point out some of the main ones that I have seen. For those who have followed my previous prophetic words, you will see the synchronicity with what has been said. To put the puzzle together, here are the following names and numbers that have significance: 53, Patriots, Rams, Tom Brady, 12, Julian Edelman, Robert Kraft, 13-3.

The 53rd Super Bowl & Psalm 53

"The Lord is bringing us out of bondage from a previously hidden agenda of death that is being progressively exposed."

This was the 53rd Super Bowl. Psalm 53:1 starts with, "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.' They are corrupt, they have done abominable works..." This is the scenario that is being visibly played out in front of our nation. There is a godless and evil agenda being exposed as it has never been before. It is going to a place described in Psalm 53:5, "...For God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you; you have put them to shame, because God has despised them." The exposure is going to include those even dead and gone who were initial building blocks of the "abominable iniquity" now being revealed.

Psalm 53:6 ends with, "...let Jacob rejoice and let Israel be glad." As we follow the Super Bowl story we see that both the owner of the winning team as well as the game's MVP (Most Valuable Player) are both Jews. Though evil is also being exposed of corrupt men and women of Jewish descent, do not let that jade you toward antisemitism as there is a great "next chapter" in Israel's restoration being advanced. We honor Israel because they are the original root for the Savior of the world. There has also never been a retraction from God on His original pronouncement over Israel through Abraham in Genesis 12:3, "I will bless those who bless you and whoever curses you I will curse..."

The Patriots

The Patriots winning is no surprise as they have been in the Super Bowl all three "Trump" years. The red, white and blue colors, of course, match the colors of our flag and there really is a heavenly intention to make America great for the sake of a world Kingdom breakthrough. A repeat pattern is seen here with the World Series baseball result, where the Boston Red Sox defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers. The city that represents original patriotism defeats the city that presently is known for being the bastion of far left and socialist politics.

I have repeatedly pointed out the color red representing an empowering by the Blood of Jesus. It also happens to be the color advanced by President Trump and his MAGA (Make America Great Again) hats. Trump is a gift from God to this nation and the world, and that will be progressively seen. It is not at all that God is red Republican, but at present, this party is the party carrying the agenda of God through the Cyrus mandate on Donald J. Trump.

Both losing Los Angeles teams carried a primary blue color. This doesn't have to always be a negative, nor does this condemn these teams to never win again. It is just in the light of today's realities that the blue is associated with a horrible socialistic agenda of death that at present is being exposed in the Democratic Party. There are good people and even worthy policies in the party – but it is in the valley of decision right now whether they can coexist with the extreme elements that have hijacked this party.

The Rams

The Rams losing has a double message for us. Beginning with the story of Abraham and Isaac we see that it was a ram that was provided for the sacrifice instead of Isaac (Genesis 22:13). Then multiple times throughout Leviticus the ram's role as a redemptive sacrifice was mentioned. In this Super Bowl story the Ram's sacrificed for the Patriots to be champions. The Rams scored 3 and this speaks of the Trinity working together to allow the Patriots to win. Father, Son and Holy Spirit are again all active in a great intervention on planet Earth. (Photo via Unsplash)

A second message from the Rams losing is that they represent a blue and yellow (the Ram's colors) agenda being defeated. Blue is associated with where the Democrat Party presently is at and yellow represents Hollywood as it is the color we (my wife and I) associate in our Rainbow God book with the Mountain of Celebration (arts and entertainment) which is headquartered in Hollywood/LA. The blue and yellow have been working together to be on the wrong side at this time.

The Scripture, Daniel 8:20, when isolated just for this occasion, gives an amazing message for today. It says, "The ram which you saw, having the two horns – they are the kings of Media and Persia." If you watched the Super Bowl you know that the Ram's helmet has a yellow horn against a blue background on each side. If you read this passage directly to apply to the Super Bowl (yes, I know that is not the full intended meaning and application of this Scripture, but God is amazing to hide real-time revelation in this kind of way), you see that it speaks of a ram having two horns which are kings of Media and Persia.

"There is a godless and evil agenda being exposed as it has never been before."

Also, another things that is of interest is that if you read Daniel 8 you know that in this part it is the archangel Gabriel who is saying these words to Daniel. I have previously identified Gabriel as the archangel over the Mountain of Media and I find this fascinating. The ram's two horns represent the kings of Media and Persia. It is quite significant that the great battle President Trump faces is with the dominant "fake news" media and that they are presently totally aligned and empowered by a not-yet-transformed Hollywood (the yellow). The king of Persia speaks of the "prince of Persia" principality that presently operates as the ruling god of Islam. Both sinister "kings" are in the process of being defeated.

Tom Brady #12

The name Tom/Thomas means "twin" or "double." The greatest quarterback in history won yet another Super Bowl. Appropriately enough, he wears 12 which is the number of government. Tom was taking all kinds of heat on Super Bowl week for daring to wear a red MAGA hat. He is a known supporter of President Trump – a fact which riles the soon-to-be-defeated bad "kings" of Media. I believe he represents Trump's present quarterback position in America, and the fact that his name means "twin" speaks of Trump winning another four year term as president of the United States. Even Tom's marriage to a Brazilian mirrors the recent election of Bolsonaro as president of Brazil. He is called the "Trump of the Tropics" and I believe he and Trump will greatly strengthen each other as they are of the same "family."

MVP Julian Edelman

Though I personally thought Tom Brady deserved the MVP of the game, I believe there is a message here as well. Edelman is the first Jewish MVP of a Super Bowl ever. He is often noted for being little, but tough, a key player and always starring in the big games. This basically describes Israel, who continues to hold a central place in the great storytelling God is doing on planet Earth. If Brady represents Trump, then Edelman represents Israel, and it is the tandem that works for victory. Of interest, Brazil's president, Bolsonaro, has led Brazil and joined the United States as the only large nations to endorse Jerusalem as the capital of Israel (note that Guatemala has also done this).

Owner Robert Kraft

Just in case we missed the vital role of the Israel connection, we find that Robert Kraft is the 77-year-old majority owner of the New England Patriots. Both his age and his ethnicity are speaking important things to us. I have probably covered 7s enough for that to be obvious by now, but let me remind you that Trump won the presidency in the Hebrew year 5777, and his first full day as president he was 70 years, 7 months and 7 days old. Only God can "craft" such a message.

Exodus 13:3 & Psalm 133: Deliverance & Unity

Exodus 13:3 says, "...REMEMBER THIS DAY in which you went out of Egypt, OUT OF THE HOUSE OF BONDAGE; for by strength of hand THE LORD BROUGHT YOU OUT OF THIS PLACE..." (emphasis mine). I believe this speaks directly into the day we live in and it coincides with the day Israel left Egypt. It is a historic day for the ages.

In a previous word, I have shared that we are in a rescue operation from Heaven similar to what Israel experienced, and this is yet another confirmation of that reality. The Lord is bringing us out of bondage from a previously hidden agenda of death that is being progressively exposed. This death agenda has been running many global matters but it is the strength of the Lord, Himself, that is delivering us from that. (Photo via Pixabay)

Psalm 133 is the unity chapter that begins with, "Behold, how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell in unity!" (Psalm 133:1). It is no accident that Trump's State of the Union speech was filled with appeals toward unity. This is a huge theme for us this year, even as the Lord fully exposes the dark agendas that have been hiding in government circles. The call is still to be the UNITED States and our president is understanding that high priority more and more. It is also not coincidental that Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where the Super Bowl was played, is the home of MLS soccer champions, the Atlanta United.

Let's stay encouraged at what God is doing and let's not flinch or blink as we see the enemy overreact. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

The Holocaust Remains a Wake-Up Call for the Church - Charles Gardner ISRAEL TODAY

Anti-Semitism

Nearly three-quarters of a century has passed since the Red Army liberated the notorious Auschwitz death camp on January 27, 1945, a date now marked by the annual Holocaust Memorial Day here in Britain and elsewhere.

It is held with the intention of ensuring that it never happens again. But alas, anti-Semitism is back to haunt us, proving the point often made that we never learn from history.

In the UK, we face the dreadful possibility of having a Prime Minister with strong anti-Israel sympathies if the party currently holding onto power by the skin of its teeth does not get its act together.

In the US, they have witnessed the ghastly spectre of a congresswoman who took “swearing in” quite literally as she launched a profanity-laced tirade against President Trump on taking office.

Democrat Rashida Tlaib and Representative Ilhan Omar are the first two Muslim women elected to Congress, with the latter having already expressed her opposition to Israel.

Anti-Semitism has also been cited among issues affecting the Women’s March movement in America. In fact, it is on the rise worldwide, with left and right forming an unholy alliance against God’s chosen people.

On the other hand, there is increasing support for Israel from unexpected quarters. Take Brazil, for instance. Its new president, Jair Bolsonaro, has boldly declared his intention of following the US lead in moving his embassy to Jerusalem. And Wilson Witzel actually requested the sound of a shofar to accompany his inauguration as a Brazilian state governor, so strong is his support for the Jewish state.

So what does this mean? Nations, communities and individuals are lining up for battle (whether knowingly or not) in anticipation, no doubt, of the day of judgment when the sheep are separated from the goats (see Ezekiel 34.17, Matthew 25.31-46, Joel 3.2) on the basis of how they treated the Jewish people.

In the midst of all this, the silence from most leaders of the Christian church has been deafening – just as it was in Germany and elsewhere during the Shoah. I guess this is largely because of the dangerous and heretical Replacement Theology that has certainly swept through much of the British church.

We should be witnessing stirring calls from our pulpits to stand with the Jews, but somehow they don’t see the connection. That’s because they have been disconnected from the roots of their faith, and have forgotten that we worship the God of Israel, who has sent his Son as Messiah, first for the Jews and also for the Gentiles.

We owe them everything – the Law, the Prophets, the Patriarchs, the entire Bible (Luke being the only Gentile author) and most of all Jesus, who will soon return as the Lion of the tribe of Judah (Rev 5.5).

That the Jewish state is once more under severe threat was illustrated by the surface-to-surface missile fired into Israel by Syrian-based Iranian forces on Sunday. Fortunately, it was successfully intercepted.

Anne Graham Lotz, daughter of the late evangelist Billy Graham, is currently suffering severe side-effects from cancer treatment which she believes could be a message for Israel.

Recalling that God had some of his prophets live out the message he gave them, she wonders if her current life and death battle relates to the Jewish nation, reborn just a week before she came into the world.

“The warning I feel deep within is that Israel is in danger of a surprise attack in this, her 70th year,” she writes, urging them to return to the Lord (Joel 2.12-14) and us Gentiles to pray for the peace of Jerusalem “and for the whole House of Israel”.

If we truly love Jesus, we will love the Jews – as many of our Arab friends testify on finding peace and reconciliation at the cross. Wake up, church!

Is Anti-Semitism Accelerating the End Times?

12/12/2018 BREAKING ISRAEL NEWS  charisma news

(Pixabay/ractapopulous)

In an interview earlier this week, End of Days expert Rabbi Mendel Kessin told radio talk show host Tamar Yonah of Israel News Talk Radio that anti-Semitism is a signal that God is accelerating the end times.

"We are very close to the end. We are looking at a messianic process that has been going on for quite a while. And what you're seeing now unfolding is a process that will bring the Moshiach (Messiah). That's really what's happening.

"What you're looking at, in many ways, is an acceleration of the end, just like it happened in Egypt. What God seems to be doing is rushing up the end, therefore there are so many things going on simultaneously."

Kessin spent a considerable amount of time exploring the connection between anti-Semitism and the End of Days.

"As we approach the Messianic era, anti-Semitism will rise," he explained. "This is driven because Satan, who is the major enemy of the Jewish people, is dying. What you are looking at are the death throes of the Satan. And that is why he's trying to bring in all the energy he has, in order to do away with the Jews."

"When holiness is about the enter, then evil and corruption energize and try to stop the entry of righteousness. And that's really what you're looking at," Kessin elaborated.

He connected the chaos of what's happening on the political map today to the End of Days War of Gog and Magog.

"Anti-Semitism isn't new. It's been going on since [the time of] Avraham Avinu (Abraham our father). It will always be. But you have to understand that at the end of time, it gets much worse. Because Satan is dying, and you are looking at the beginning of the entry of holiness. There's an incredible attempt of evil to stop the entry of holiness."

Kessin further explained that the First and Second World Wars absorbed most of the worst prophecies associated with Gog and Magog. As a kindness, Kessin claimed, "God distributed Gog and Magog over three different wars. Therefore, the last war will be a confrontation, as opposed to a real war. And we are seeing now the confrontation between Israel and the entire world."

He further pointed out the contradiction between a rise in anti-Semitism on the one hand and "an incredible rise in the stature of Israel among the nations," on the other. "It's not just anti-Semitism. Israel is rising among the nations. They are gaining incredible respect. Economically they are now spread out—Africa, Asia, India. Even Europe is beginning to turn against Hamas.

"You're looking at a duality here. It's not just the rise of anti-Semitism. It's the rise of the Jewish people. How do you explain that?" he challenged.

He concluded this point by emphasizing that "We are looking at a spiritual war between the side of good and the side of evil. And that is what Gog and Magog is really all about.

"Israel is supposed to rise among the nations and that is the beginning of the messianic era. At the same time, the Satan is trying to destroy Israel. This will happen in the end of time because evil is threatened by its end and by the entry of good," he summarized.

When asked directly by Yonah, Kessin predicted the arrival of Moshiach, "within 10 years, maybe sooner."
