Spiritual Connections
2024 has again been a year of persecution and marginalization of Christians, Conservatives, and Jews.
Matthew 24:5 – “Many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Mashiach’.”
Romans 1:25 – “They have exchanged the truth of God for falsehood, by worshipping and serving created things, rather than the Creator.”
Jude 1:4 – “Certain people . . . pervert the grace of Yahweh and deny Yeshua.”
• 2024 saw an increase in anti-Semitic words and deeds.
• Many throughout the world and within the “CINO (Christian in Name Only) church” continue to nod in unconcern and take great pleasure in cursing Israel. CINOs are not true followers of Yeshua.
• In 2024, Iran intensified its genocidal war against Israel that it started October 7, 2023.
• Reports indicate over 2,400 of the 13,000 UNWRA employees are either active in Hamas or have posted vehemently pro-Hamas and anti-Semitic content on the official UNWRA-Gaza Telegram group. Francesca Albanese, the United Nations’ “Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories” declared Israel’s military actions in Gaza akin to the Nazi Holocaust. Inexcusable and Unacceptable.
• Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Adolf Hitler. Again, Inexcusable and Unacceptable.
• Synagogues around the world were targeted in 2024 in Tunisia, France, Germany, Russia, Norway, Greece, Australia, and Canada.
• Synagogues attacked in the United States include those in Los Angeles and Philadelphia.
• Elite universities grossly failed to address the surge of anti-Semitism on their campuses.
• In Amsterdam Israeli soccer fans exiting the game were attacked by organized rioters, in what was described as a “Jew hunt.”
• Israeli athletes at the Paris 2024 Olympics faced Nazi salutes and anti-Semitic gestures from some spectators.
• An Israeli Frisbee team was excluded from competition in Ghent, Belgium where “Boycott Israhell Now!” was spray-painted near the field.
• In Berlin the youth soccer team were allegedly spat at repeatedly and chased by people wielding sticks and knives while the other team’s players reportedly yelled “Free Palestine”.

Nations and Their Machinations
Israel and Jerusalem continues to be the burdensome stone.
Zechariah 12:2-3 – “I will make Jerusalem a cup that will stagger the surrounding peoples. The siege of Jerusalem will also be against Judah. I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who try to lift that burdensome stone will be cut in pieces, though all the earth’s nations will be assembled against her. “ [bold mine]
Jeremiah 31:5 – “Again you shall plant vineyards on the hills of Samaria; those doing the planting will enjoy its fruit.”
Jeremiah 31:22 – “Judah and all its cities shall dwell there together, farmers and those who wander with their flocks.”
• There were 18,000 terrorist attacks in Israel in 2024, according to several sources.
• Israeli civilians were attacked on seven fronts last year—Iran, Lebanon, Syria, the Gaza Strip, Iraq, Yemen and from within Israeli territory.
• On October 1, 2024 Iran attacked Israel with over 300 drones and missiles. Only four or five missiles actually hit Israel, and none caused any major damage! Yahweh protects his chosen people.
• Biden continues to give Iran billions and gives hundreds of thousands of dollars to mosques. “The Biden administration is giving access to $10 billion to an Islamist regime that recently killed three American soldiers, wounded dozens more, shut down shipping in the Red Sea, is rapidly advancing its nuclear weapons program, and is attacking Israel.” says Mark Dubowitz, CEO of Foundation for Defense of Democracies.
• Biden also gave $336 million in additional humanitarian assistance for the people of Gaza, enemies of Israel who use the funding to fund more terrorist activity rather than fund humanitarian needs.
• Pandemics and mass vaccinations are still part of the United Nation’s plan to transform itself into a world government.
• The World Health Organization continues solidifying its position as the arbiter of all decisions medical, superseding national and or local entities.

Eye to Eye Connections
Bill Koenig has noted several more connections between US policies that curse Israel, and the resulting damage to our nation:
Genesis 12:3 – “I will bless those who bless you, but I will curse anyone who curses you; and by you all the families of the earth will be blessed.”
• In April and May 2024 Biden and Anthony Blinken began calling for an Israeli cease fire and hostage deal with Hamas.
• At the same time, Blinken was preparing for two-state talks between Israel and the Palestinians, and continued working on the US backed Israel-Saudi normalization agreement with the Saudis.
• And the Biden administration held up delivery of precision equipment and ammunition to Israel.
• These actions resulted in 300 tornadoes and 929 severe weather events in the United States between April 2nd and May 2nd!
• In September Biden was busy once again delaying the sending of bombs, helicopters, and other equipment needed by Israel.
• Anti-Israel speeches were given to the United Nations General Assembly.
• At the same time, Biden was putting pressure on Israel to stop defending itself, and begin major cease fire activities.
• Biden, along with Emmanuel Macron were putting pressure on Israel to accept a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah.
• Hurricane Helene, one of the four costliest hurricanes in US history quickly formed as these actions were taking place.

The Third Temple
2024 saw several prophetic portents in regard to the Third Temple.

The Red Heifer The Reason for the War
2024 has seen continued efforts to see the Tenth Red Heifer qualified.
Isaiah 2:2 – “In the days to come, the mount of Yahweh’s house shall stand firm above the mountains and tower above the hills; and all the nations shall gaze on it with joy and stream unto it.”
• A red heifer suitable for sacrifice is expected to be available by Pesach (Passover) in April of 2025.
• Abu Ubaida, a Hamas Spokesman, stated in a speech that the origins of the conflict, which started on October 7, 2023, is all because of the red heifers. Osama Ali of the Al Bawaba News says “At the core of these beliefs is a specific Jewish Zionist idea involving the burning of five red heifers.”

2024 has seen continued efforts to see the Red Heifer certified and sacrificed:
• On March 27th a press conference about the red heifer was held in Shiloh.
• One of the presentations demonstrated how the sacrificial altar might look.
• A red heifer ritual was also practiced in front of Al-Aqsa Mosque in October.

2024 has seen direct opposition to the red heifer program:
• Dozens of religious clergy from around the world denounced the red heifer sacrifice as madness.
• A declaration signed on April 8 by those miscreants claimed it to be an “invitation to regional, or even global war,” which would “transform the Israeli-Palestinian situation from a political conflict into a religious conflict without a terrestrial solution.”
• Apparently there is great fear that the sacrifice of a red heifer will lead to “unrestricted access for Jews worldwide to enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque” – not just the silver domed building on the Temple Mount, but to the entire Temple Mount Compound.

Temple Mount Activities
2024 has seen continued efforts to see the Temple built upon the Temple Mount.
The prophecies declare that the Jewish exiles would return to Israel and that the Temple would be rebuilt, exactly what seems to be happening right now!
• The efforts to build the Third Temple have increased because of the war in Gaza.
• The Third Temple Organization has architectural plans being drawn up and will build the temple “for the benefit of mankind.”
• Yitzhak Reuven believes that the “construction can be done without bloodshed”, despite the sometimes vicious opposition, and that the “red heifers still have time to grow”.
• In October, a replica of the Ark of the Covenant was displayed in Jerusalem during the Succoth moed.
• In November Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee for Secretary Of Defense, again suggested at that the temple could be re-established on the Temple Mount.

Pope Francis and The Vatican
2024 saw several prophetic portents in regard to the Pope and the Vatican and their efforts to install the One World Government, One World Religion, and One World Green Agenda. This portion of the article is blunt and may be offensive to those who have no love of the truth:
Matthew 12:34, 15:18’ Luke 6:45 – “The mouth speaks what overflows from the heart.”
2 Corinthians 11:13 – “Such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Yeshua.”
Galatians 2:4 – “False brothers slipped in secretly to spy out our freedom that we have in Yeshua, so that they might bring us into slavery.”
Romans 1:25 – “They have exchanged the truth of God for falsehood, by worshipping and serving created things, rather than the Creator.”

Yahweh has given all people free will – you may choose to continue reading or not – that is your choice. “Yeshua will enable Lucifer to deceive, in all kinds of wicked ways, those who are headed for destruction because they would not receive the love of the truth that could have saved them” (2 Thessalonians 2:10).

2024 continued to expose the weaknesses the Vatican under the direction of Pope Francis. We pray that the people attending Roman Catholic “churches” will see how far it’s leadership has fallen, and worship Yeshua in the manner described and commanded by the Biblical Scriptures. This is commentary only on the leadership, not the people in the pews.

The Pope’s One World Religion Dogma
Pope Francis. A wolf in sheep’s clothing still spews out the doctrine of demons.
• Pope Francis continues to declare that “all religions are a path to God.” He states that “Since God is God for all, then we are all children of God.” These statements were made at a Catholic junior college while meeting with young people attending the meeting.
• Pope Francis also states that “different religions are like different languages to reach God.”
• In October his prayer was labeled “For a Shared Mission.” The prayer prays that the Church “continues to support a synodal way of life, under the sign of co-responsibility, promoting participation, communion, and shared mission among priests, religious, and laypeople.”

The Pope’s One World Government Dogma
Pope Francis is still looking for the installation of a one world government.
• Francis says we must acknowledge the disastrous effects of war.
• He also says we must set ethical limits on the development of artificial intelligence since its “capacity for calculation and simulation could be used for domination over humanity and nature, instead of being harnessed for the service of peace and integral development.”
• Pope Francis invites prayers “so that political leaders may serve their people, work for comprehensive human development and the common good, attending to those who have lost their jobs and prioritizing the poorest.”
• Only by recognizing everyone is part of a common humanity and putting fraternity at the center of peoples’ lives “will we succeed in developing a model of coexistence capable of giving the human family a future,” he said.
• Pope Francis is the first pope invited to participate in the G7 summit. The G7 group, “is united by common values and plays an important role on the international arena in upholding freedom, democracy and human rights.”

The Pope’s Green Agenda Dogma
Pope Francis continues to declare that care for creation is an ethical and theological issue.
• In September his prayer was labeled “For the Cry of the Earth.” The prayer is: “Let us pray that each of us hears with the heart the cry of the Earth and victims of natural disasters and climate change, personally committing to care for the world we inhabit.”
• Pope Francis continues to support the COP29 agenda, which puts together an international community ready to “place at the center the good of humanity and our common home, which God has entrusted to our care and responsibility.”

Conclusions
Joel 3:14 – “Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of Yahweh is near in the valley of decision.”
Zephaniah 1:14 – “The great day of Yahweh is near, it is near, and hastens greatly.”
The world is changing and changes are happening so fast that one can’t keep up. Daily newspapers and online websites that track world news give hour by hour and even minute by minute updates. Anti-Semitism is on the rise at national, worldwide, and spiritual levels – and the resulting calamities upon those who engage in those actions is enormous.

The state of Israel is a fact and Jewish authorities are preparing to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem. The desire to do so is increasing, especially now due to the war in Gaza.
• The appearance of the red heifers, the architectural plans, and the ability of the Jewish people to openly pray on the Temple Mount are all seen as prophetic implications that the time is ripe.
• All of the gold and silver utensils and the garments needed for Temple worship have either been recovered or remanufactured by the Temple Institute and others.
• The Kohanim have been trained and the necessary altar site has been identified.
• Only the lack of a qualified red heifer prevents the Third Temple from being built and cleansed, but that requirement has apparently now been met.
However, this will not usher in the arrival of the Jew’s long awaited Mashiach (Messiah). Instead, it will usher in an unprecedented time of agony, bloodshed, disaster, pandemics, wars, and death the likes of which this world has never seen.

Yeshua says of this time: “For there will be great tribulation worse than there has ever been from the beginning of the world until now, and there will be nothing like it again! “ (Matthew 24:21). The Third Temple will allow the false messiah, the antichrist, to enter into the Holy of Holies and declare himself to be God.

Yahweh has permitted Pope Francis to steadfastly expose the true nature of the Roman Catholic “Church” as a Synagogue of Satan through the political, one-world, globalist dogma coming out of his mouth.

Pope Francis leads the way. There is nothing compatible between Biblical Christianity and the Satanic deceptions of the lying, deceiving actions and remarks of the Vatican and especially Pope Francis – which scripture calls the doctrine of demons. What a stench in Yahweh’s nostrils these beliefs are!

Yahweh is getting ready to end man’s administration and place Yeshua on the throne in Jerusalem. As the final days begin to coalesce, one must ask the question: “How close are we to the resurrection of the dead in Yeshua, the rapture, and the beginning of the seven years of the Tribulation Period?”

Final Thought for 2025
• Prophecy continues to unfold as foretold by the Hebrew prophets. History is moving extremely quickly towards the prophesied one world government, the one world financial system, and the rise of both the Antichrist and the False Prophet.
• The escalation of wars and rumors of wars continues to unfold, both in the Middle East and around the globe.
• Time is incredibly short – The birth pangs are just over the horizon.
• The great day of Yahweh is getting really near, even at the door. It hastens forth and will not delay.
• Be sure you are believing The Truth, not The Lie, and maintain an attitude of thanksgiving.
• Be sure Yeshua is your Redeemer, King, and High Priest, and your sins are forgiven.
