It is appropriate in this section because it shows how some Jewish People are returning to the cultivated Olive tree, whereas others show how cut off they are.<br /><br />It is almost like reading the Book of Acts, all over again. It seems the religious Jews still behave in the same way against believers.<br /><br />Let us all pray for the protection of our brothers and sisters and God's intervention against the opposition.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04713448621601972014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842260823875796403.post-12683505608106826302010-08-10T20:19:13.475+01:002010-08-10T20:19:13.475+01:00Persecution of Messianic Jews in Israel is Getting...Persecution of Messianic Jews in Israel is Getting Worse<br /><br />A court case has been going on for the past 5 year, after there was a riot against a<br />Messianic congregation while it was holding services.<br /><br />This congregation which is in Beer Sheva, Israel, was attacked by approximately 200<br />extremist orthodox Jews who destroyed the congregation as congregants were inside!<br /><br />Once inside the building, the mob of ultra-orthodox Jews threw chairs and other items,<br />damaged audiovisual equipment and threw equipment and other items into the Mikvah (baptismal pool)<br />and pushed the Messianic Leader of the congregation, Howard Bass into the pool as well.<br /><br /><br />Mob of Orthodox Jews outside of the Messianic congregation<br /><br /> Police were called to the scene but could not control the crowd. This group of orthodox Jewish men,<br />were totally out of control and were on a mission to terrorize the congregation.<br /><br />Two years later in 2007, Messianic leader Howard Bass filed suit for inciting this riot against Yehuda Deri,<br />who is the chief Sephardic rabbi in the city of Beer Sheva, and Yad L'Achim, an anti-missionary<br />organization that fights against Messianic Jews in Israel. <br /><br />This year, the court ruled…. Can you believe it, AGAINST the Messianic Jewish congregation! That’s right! <br /><br />After the Believers in Yeshua were faced with a riot in their congregation which was videotaped,<br />the court ruled in favor of the extremist ultra-orthodox Jews. The nation of Israel is against Yeshua (Jesus)<br />and anyone who believes in Him.<br /><br />The verdict was "totally distorted,” and there are strong legal grounds for an appeal, but I do not believe<br />it is God's will to appeal the court, Howard Bass said.<br /><br /> <br />I want to show you how extreme persecution against the Believers in Yeshua can be. <br /><br />Just days before the riot, Yad L'Achim sent out a strong rallying call that there was going to be a<br />“Christian” water immersion (mikvah) service (baptism) taking place. This drew the ultra-orthodox<br />out to storm the Messianic congregation. After the riot, on a talk radio program Yehuda Deri, the<br />chief Sephardic rabbi proudly spoke about the incident of the riot with great pride of how many people<br />showed up to protest the Messianic Jews.<br /><br />A couple of years earlier, about 1,000 protestors went to the same congregation during a service<br />and threw rocks and spit on congregants.<br /><br /><br />Howard Bass and his wife<br />Howard Bass said that the court’s verdict is a "message from God" that injustice toward Jews who accept Jesus as the Messiah is now the "state of things" in Israel.<br /><br />And here’s the crux! The judge ordered Bass to pay a fine to the defendants and cover their legal expenses<br />for a total of approximately 155,000 shekels (US$40,123). This is outrageous.<br /><br />Howard Bass said the verdict may embolden those who want to attack Messianic Jews in Israel. At minimum,<br />he said, the verdict leaves open the potential for future violence. <br /><br />Bass continued saying that Jesus' trial was the perfect example of a public defeat and a travesty<br />of justice that God used in a great way.little warriornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842260823875796403.post-64027145830257498052010-08-01T22:42:14.677+01:002010-08-01T22:42:14.677+01:00Hi EI

I did know Romans 11 was about the Olive Tree; you were perfectly correct and I haven’t got a clue why I thought it was the Vine. I think I did warn you that my concentration is poor at present? <br /><br />I have been trying to find the Scripture about the Bema seat judgment and its timing, but my mind keeps hitting a ‘brick wall’. Maybe I’ve got brain strain? Advice from hubby ‘get an early night’, I think I am confusing him as well?<br />God bless<br />SueExpected Imminentlynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842260823875796403.post-47139707588869695072010-07-27T23:25:07.757+01:002010-07-27T23:25:07.757+01:00Ok Thanks EI

I havent been very clear have I! I don'...Hi John<br />I havent been very clear have I! I don't think PD and E will fall 'to rise no more', I am with you regarding the whore. As I said, I am not a prophet, I may be totally wrong. However in my past experience with all cults, and they ARE cults, sexual sin has always made itself known eventually. <br /><br />There are many that are led astray whose hearts are genuine before The Lord, but deceived by this apostasy. It is these people who I feel would be severely jolted by such revelations. <br /><br />No doubt 'it' will carry on regardless in similar vein as that heretical Bentley chap (is it Todd?) with other leaders making excuses for him. The foolish no doubt continue to follow them like Lemming's. <br /><br />Those who would be shaken awake by this, as in the past, will be at first numbed by the shock. Especially if they are close to those involved. Later they have become very upset, even angry. It may not happen, I have no evidence that it will, but I will be surprised if the old pattern doesn't present itself eventually (isn't that the way of a whore?)<br /><br />When you see ALL these things LOOK UP for our redemption draws near.<br />Maranatha! <br /><br />Also, just to repeat that this thread on the tree is great - do you know, I thought it was a Vine, not an Olive? I must re-read that Scripture more carefully. The principle still applies!<br /><br />God is blessing your work John. <br />SueExpected Imminentlynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842260823875796403.post-44112406966743489472010-07-27T18:59:27.369+01:002010-07-27T18:59:27.369+01:00Thanks Sue

If The Emerging Church and the whole emerging ecumenical movement which is joining itself now to all religions under the Tony Blair initiative, proves to be the whore of Babylon, then it will get stronger and stronger and especially after the rapture. My own feeling is that it is the whore and is readying itself to accept the ac.<br /><br />God will judge it and it will fall but probably not until after the revealing of ac. However, if the whore shows itself as another organisation then I would agree with you.<br /><br />I am wondering why you feel God is showing you it will fail seeings you seemed to believe this strong movement to be the whore before?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04713448621601972014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842260823875796403.post-62593898131555013992010-07-27T00:01:53.950+01:002010-07-27T00:01:53.950+01:00Hi John

Certainly against God. As I have said previously, this lying deception may be in line for a series of 'heavy pruning' one way or the other, as they are undoubtedly mocking God and leading astray the inexperienced and vulnerable.<br /><br />Further, I have been considering something rather troubling. I am not a prophet - I am not saying 'thus saith The Lord'; but I have been rather tentatively, holding something before the Lord!<br /><br />P.D. and Emergent MAY be going to self destruct from the inside out? This over sexual sin, and general immorality, that will flare up like tall flames of fire from their midst. In particular, among those in leadership positions.<br /><br />In any event, God is not mocked, and he will not strive with them for much longer.<br />IF true, many souls will be as those 'lost at sea' struggling blindly to survive. IF this happens - Big IF- then we must be ready to snatch them from dark depths, to pray for them and make plain the truth to them.<br /><br />SueExpected Imminentlynoreply@blogger.com
