Exclusive: Joseph Farah of World Net Daily explains so far dead-on prophecies of 13th-century rabbi
Several years ago, Ludwig Schneider, a German-language scholar, discovered an amazing prophecy dating back to 1217 by a scholarly and highly respected rabbi by the name of Judah Ben Samuel.
He was quite famous in his time as the initiator of the Chassidic Ashkenaz, a movement of Jewish mysticism in Germany. He founded a yeshiva in Regensburg and secured many pupils. Legend has it that, as a young man, he was an excellent bowman but knew little or nothing about daily prayers. But once he got serious about his faith, legend has it that he performed many miracles. It is also reported that he was given a prophecy about the exact year of Israel’s rebirth as a nation and its redemption.
So renowned was his work, the Bishop of Salzburg asked him to serve as his personal seer.
Because most of his writings were published so long ago – before the invention of the printing press – and in German, few copies have survived. But Schneider has a copy of Judah Ben Samuel’s prophecy about the nation of Israel and the messianic era and has translated the highlights of it into English and other languages for the magazine Israel Today.

The clearest answer comes from a statement reputedly made by President Harry Truman during his 1948 presidential election campaign.
One of his supporters yelled out to him, Give em hell, Harry! Truman responded, I don’t give them hell. I just tell the truth about them and they think it’s hell.
That is precisely the reason why there is a war on Christians waged by members of the secular media.
Christians speak the truth about God s best for humanity as it applies to morality, laws and governing principles, but the secular media views these truths as hell. Truth always feels like hell to those who reject, deny or hate the truth.
When Bible-believing Christians share that there is only one true God who is lovingly inviting people to believe in Him and receive His redemption or face His coming judgment, that is hell to those who view themselves as their own gods masters of their own fates. Many of these self-made gods control our media.
As gods, they want no competition. They reject the truth that God is God alone and that He will hold them accountable for mocking Him and His followers. Thus, the truth is hell to them, even before they get there. They express their hatred for God s truth by heaping venom on anyone who declares God s truth.

The violent response to an anti-Muslim movie has cast the subject of religious tolerance into the limelight. Is Islam a religion that can tolerate criticism? Can Muslims bear up gracefully when their religion is insulted? As I wrote last week, when it comes to Islam as practiced and understood in much of the Middle East, the short answer to these questions appears to be “no.”
As Pastor Brian Lee points out in his article “Freedom of Religion Requires Freedom to Offend,” to be a person of faith in America means being a person who is prepared to have his or her most cherished beliefs and convictions criticized, challenged, or ridiculed. Turn on your television or your radio, log on to your favorite social media website and odds are there will be content calculated to outrage and offend you. As Americans, we tolerate such indignities because we believe that free speech is a liberty that is fundamental to a free society. As the saying goes, “I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” To many in the Muslim world, however, this appears to be an utterly foreign concept. Having never lived in America, they assume that the American government regulates political speech and artistic expression like their own governments do. In their societies, there is no separation of church and state. The state is viewed as an instrument of their faith. Thus, they cannot understand why the American government would “allow” such offensive material to be produced, and they demand that the American government punish the offenders.

Dear family & friends in Christ,
1) We thank and praise the Lord Jesus for a mighty outpouring of His Holy Spirit in Culcairn & Holbrook, NSW over this last weekend, where Pr Daniel, along with a team from Catch The Fire Ministries, ministered the Word of God to many who gathered!
In Culcairn the population is only around 1200, but praise God more than 100 people attended the Sunday night meeting held at the Footy Club. There were so many people from different denominational churches present at the meeting. It was so exciting to see many children & youth come up for prayer as many responded to the altar call, and some gave their lives to Jesus!
We thank God for the many young men who were there from the Footy Club and were greatly excited to hear Pr Daniel speak about Rise Up Australia Party.
The place erupted with great excitement as they heard the RUA Party slogan to “Keep Australia Australian”!
Many also signed up for RUA Party membership and around 1000 RUAP brochures were taken by the people to distribute amongst their friends and family.
Last Monday, Pr Daniel also travelled to Sydney to speak at a RUA Party meeting in Kellyville.

Over a hundred years ago, the great Dutch theologian Herman Bavinck predicted that the 20th century would “witness a gigantic conflict of spirits.” His prediction turned out to be an understatement, and this great conflict continues into the 21st century.
The issue of Halloween presses itself annually upon the Christian conscience. Acutely aware of dangers new and old, many Christian parents choose to withdraw their children from the holiday altogether. Others choose to follow a strategic battle plan for engagement with the holiday. Still others have gone further, seeking to convert Halloween into an evangelistic opportunity. Is Halloween really that significant?
Well, Halloween is a big deal in the marketplace. Halloween is surpassed only by Christmas in terms of economic activity. Reporting in 2007, David J. Skal estimated: “Precise figures are difficult to determine, but the annual economic impact of Halloween is now somewhere between 4 billion and 6 billion dollars depending on the number and kinds of industries one includes in the calculations.” As of 2012, that total exceeded $8 billion.
Furthermore, historian Nicholas Rogers claims that “Halloween is currently the second most important party night in North America. In terms of its retail potential, it is second only to Christmas. This commercialism fortifies its significance as a time of public license, a custom-designed opportunity to have a blast. Regardless of its spiritual complications, Halloween is big business.”

They’re coming. Over the next few months, parents are going to see an onslaught of horror based movies that are aimed directly at their children. Paranorman, Frankenweenie and Hotel Transylvania may look like harmless humor horror for the harvest season, but they represent more than just the Halloween creep. These movies desensitize our children to even more satanic evil and violence that they will see on the big screen later in life.
Over the past few years, Ted Baehr and the Christian Film & Television Commission have been making inroads. The transformation of Hollywood toward a more God-respecting attitude has been seen in movies like The Blind Side, The Avengers, Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides and Soul Surfer. For a brief moment we were able to see the positive trickle-down effect, but with any victory we must always expect the enemy to launch a counterattack.
Are these so called “kid-friendly” horror films really that bad for children? Movieguide, of course, can give you the best source of guidance so you are aware of the theme and content of a movie before you give your children the OK to see it. Even so, telling your child, “No, you can’t see that movie,” is never easy. For the culture-wise family, this new string of movies about to flood our theaters can sound like the drums of war.
Let’s face it. Monsters are cool. People love them. Who will ever forget the Star Wars cantina scene or the orcs from Lord of the Rings? Pixar’s Monsters Inc. is a fine example of a wholesome, kid-friendly monster movie, not because of the fear factor, but because of the “fear not” message.
Dear friends and family in Christ, 1) Further to the email we sent last week about Christian Evangelical Leader Billy Graham endorsing Romney's (a Mormon) 'strong moral convictions' over Obama's…
9/21/2012 – Charisma News – Majed Eishafie
My name is Majed El Shafie. I was arrested, tortured and sentenced to die in Egypt after converting from Islam to Christianity. I managed to escape and with the help of the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees), I eventually settled in Canada from where I now fight for those persecuted around the world.
We have seen the news reports in recent days of Muslims protesting throughout the world, killing the American ambassador and three other Americans in Libya, over a film they claim insults their prophet. The filmmaker is in hiding, flags have been burned and trampled, and though it may not have been reported on the major news networks, Bibles are being burned and vulnerable Christians are being attacked in countries half a world away.
Many here in the West have been perplexed or alarmed by these events, especially after our soldiers risked their lives last year to support the people of Libya against Colonel Qaddafi’s forces. The irony is thick in that Ambassador Stevens in particular was keen to help the Libyan people rebuild and he took an active role in supporting their efforts. As a result, I feel compelled to speak out.

Following the Holy Spirit’s leading can break the tyranny of people-pleasing
Do you make your own decisions? Or are you a people pleaser, allowing others to make decisions for you?
When I started in ministry, I had to decide if I was going to follow my heart or give in to the resistance and discouragement coming at me from other people who didn’t think I should do that. By God’s grace, I decided to step out in faith and follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. But it wasn’t easy. A lot of my family turned against me, I lost most of my friends, I was asked to leave my church … it was a terrible time!
It was also a confusing time. I was just trying to do what I believed God was telling me to do and be what He was calling me to be—that was my sole motive.
It was a tough beginning, and there have been other challenges along the way, but I’ve never regretted being obedient to God. See, it would have been harder to miss God’s will and live an unfulfilled life than to face the struggles and live with the peace and joy I have now.
The key was learning how to follow God rather than the tyranny of being a people-pleaser.

But Obama administration policies favoring same-sex marriage, indirect abortion funding through Obamacare, and the HHS mandate compelling religious groups to offer contraceptive/abortifacient coverage have antagonized many evangelicals. Several evangelical schools have joined Catholic schools in litigating against the mandate. The Democratic convention’s awkward last minute restoration of God to the party platform likely did not help.
Now the most revered American evangelical seems to have virtually endorsed Romney. On Oct. 11Romney met with 93-year-old Billy Graham at his North Carolina mountain log cabin. Photos of the two with Graham’s evangelist son, Franklin, were released and widely published. Graham was quoted as telling Romney: “I’ll do all I can to help you. And you can quote me on that.” A statement from Graham afterward was issued.

Before the opening bell on Wednesday, millions of students from across the country gathered at their school’s flagpole to pray for their nation, their towns and cities, and their schools at the annual See You at the Pole (SYATP) prayer gathering.
“First, how stinking awesome is it that our kids, shy or bold, were coming together as one in Christ! Peer pressure didn’t stop them…,” Sarah Downing wrote on Facebook. “We had 3 girls at the pole this morning. Christ was glorified and the school lifted to our awesome God!”
The First Amendment guarantees students the right to pray on school grounds. During any non-instructional time—before or after school, in between classes, during the lunch hour or on the playing field—students may express their opinions verbally or in writing. Prayer is a form of speech, and therefore during non-instructional time, students have the constitutional right to pray individually or in groups.
Dear friend and family in Christ,
1) Over the last weekend Pr Daniel, with a team from CTFM, ministered at Fire & Rain Christian Centre in Rosebud, Victoria, where the Spirit of God moved most powerfully at every service. People were so mightily blessed by the Word of God and some of the very powerful testimonies Pr Daniel shared with the people.
Many at the meetings were healed, delivered and set free by the power of God!
When Pr Daniel shared the vision the Lord gave him to take Australia for Jesus and then about Rise Up Australia Party to ‘Keep Australia Australian’, people clapped and rejoiced.
Many people gathered at the services immediately signed up and took membership with RUA Party. Also there were some who were very keen on standing as candidates.
Pr Daniel stated, “I was so blessed to see so many people get so excited about RUA Party. It is personally very, very encouraging to me.”
See http://riseupaustraliaparty.com/ for more info on Rise Up Australia, including how to join as a member.
2) All glory to our soon coming King of kings and LORDs, as Prophetic Minister Robert Mist from Millennium Kingdom Ministries based in New Zealand, powerfully ministered God’s prophetic Word and revelation at CTFM Hallam last Sunday morning and evening services, regarding Australia’s end-time prophetic destiny as a ‘Prince Nation’ in our Lord Jesus Christ’s coming Kingdom global government across the Nations of the World!
Hundreds of intercessory prayer warriors at both service (also the webcast) were further ignited by the Spirit of God to Rise Up Australia to Catch the Fire!
