Leaked Emails Reveal The Incredible Depth Of Corruption Of Crooked Hillary And Clinton Foundation
Donald Trump wants to build a wall, Crooked Hillary Clinton wants no borders at all. That’s an easy choice.
Donald Trump wants to build a wall, Crooked Hillary Clinton wants no borders at all. That’s an easy choice.
“My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, some time in the future with energy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere.” — Hillary in her remarks from a leaked speech to Banco Itau in May 2013
Among the many telling kernels of truth dappling the spoor of the Hillary Clinton campaign’s internal e-mails released by WikiLeaks this past week, this one immediately leaped out:
“Politics is like sausage being made. It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be. But if everybody’s watching . . . then people get a little nervous, to say the least. So, you need both a public and a private position.”
The sausage maker was Mrs. Clinton, giving one of her $225,000 speeches that she’s so long sought to conceal from the public, in this instance to the National Multi-Housing Council in April 2013. It came at a time when the just-retired secretary of state was coyly gearing up for a White House run, little tin cup at the ready, raking in nearly a million dollars that month alone.
When her ode to pragmatic two-facedness was called out by Donald Trump at last week’s debate, she lamely blamed it on Abe Lincoln, as portrayed in Steven Spielberg’s 2012 film. Never mind that a high-priced collection plate and the passage of the 13th Amendment have little in common. It’s all in a day’s work for a woman who claims to be for the Little Guy but spends most of her time frolicking with the political and financial elites.
Then again, Hillary has long believed that “the personal is political,” especially when political power can benefit her personally. Indeed, as the emails show, her public career has been based on showing one face to her gullible supporters and another, more ruthless one to allies and adversaries behind closed doors.
Let’s review the evidence. Thirteen years after she and Bill left the White House in 2001 “dead broke,” Hillary regaled the well-fed bankers and financial managers at Goldman Sachs and BlackRock, Inc., with tales of her humble lifestyle before she and Bubba learned how to spin the dross of “public service” into the finest gold access and protection money can buy: “I do think there is a growing sense of anxiety and even anger in the country over the feeling that the game is rigged. And I never had that feeling when I was growing up. I mean, were there really rich people, of course . . . but we had a solid middle class upbringing. And now, obviously, I’m kind of far removed because the life I’ve lived and the economic, you know, fortunes that my husband and I now enjoy, but I haven’t forgotten it.”
Forget that those “fortunes” came from the very rigging she was supposedly decrying; as secretary of state, Hillary had to deal with lots of unsavory characters — but sometimes their natures were made sweeter by their touching thoughtfulness toward the Clintons.
Qatar, like most Muslim countries, treats women as second-class citizens, but champion-of-women Hillary never lets a little thing like that stop her from doing business. (See: “On favors.”) And a far greater threat than murderous Muslims adhering to a fanatical 7th-century religious ideology lurks right here at home — those pesky Roman Catholics and their silly 2,000-year-old faith. (See: “On Catholics.”)
The bigotry shown by her campaign aides is a hint of what’s to come under a Hillary administration: continuing pressure on Catholics to adapt to contemporary “progressive” social-justice norms. Not that she’s likely to put it so bluntly, especially during the campaign. That might alienate potential Catholic voters.
Ah, but universal brotherhood — that’s the real Clinton goal, right? Privately, you might have to stroke a few brows from time to time. (See: “Needy Latinos.”) But far beyond the Rio Grande, there’s a potentially much wider electorate to appeal to when the time is right to admit it.
“My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, some time in the future with energy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere.”
Ignore the feel-good boilerplate about green energy in the quote above, delivered in a $225,000 speech to the Brazilian Banco Itau in New York City in May 2013. E-mails from mid-2015 show her trying to defend her previous support for the Trans-Pacific Partnership but ultimately rejecting it publicly for populist political reasons — for now.
In short, don’t expect any mea culpas when the time is right for a 180-degree spin. For a Clinton is never wrong, merely evolving.
The distinction between the public and private Hillary is masked partly via her cozy relationships with reporters -— whether her aides are planting stories with sympathetic journalists, sneaking a peek at debate questions in advance or just keeping their ear to the ground: “I just wanted to make sure John Podesta had a heads up that his name will be in a story concerning the White House’s ethics policy, which could run on Monday,” wrote Washington Post White House bureau chief Juliet Eilperin in a March 21, 2015, e-mail to an Obama staffer.
In the public eye since 1992, the Clintons have long memories, rewarding their friends and punishing their enemies, swatting away annoying flies like Bill de Blasio — “Should we care about this?” wondered Podesta privately in response to policy suggestions from the mayor — whose aid they don’t need. Like the Bourbon monarchy, they’ve learned nothing and forgotten nothing.
Unsuccessfully floating the idea in late 2014 of changing the date of Illinois’ 2016 primary, current campaign manager Robby Mook wrote to Podesta, “This is not an Obama ask, but a Hillary ask. And the Clintons won’t forget what their friends have done for them.” Nor, it goes without saying, what their enemies have done to them. And certainly not what they’re going to do to us, should they win next month. But that’s private — for now.
The Clintons never forget
In November 2014, Clinton’s campaign manager Robby Mook e-mailed Clinton campaign chair John Podesta about the urgency of pushing a bill to move the Illinois primary out of March, to stop momentum for a moderate Republican candidate.
Illinois was offered “a bonus of 10 percent extra delegates if they move to April and 20 percent if they move to May” but didn’t change the date as it had already done so in 2008.
“Our preference would be for them to move all the way to May, but if they at least move to April 12 or April 19 they will have the day to themselves and presumably garner a lot of coverage,” wrote Mook. “They will also be influencing a big northeast primary day on April 26.”
“They don’t really care about being helpful and feel forgotten and neglected by POTUS,” Mook wrote. “The key point is that this is not an Obama ask, but a Hillary ask. And the Clintons won’t forget what their friends have done for them.”
On having two personas
“You just have to sort of figure out how to . . . balance the public and the private efforts that are necessary to be successful, politically, and that’s not just a comment about today . . . I mean, politics is like sausage being made. It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be. But if everybody’s watching, you know, all of the back room discussions and the deals, you know, then people get a little nervous, to say the least. So, you need both a public and a private position.”
— Hillary Clinton in a leaked speech to the National Multi-Housing Council in April 2013
On favors
“[Qatar] would like to see WJC [William Jefferson Clinton] ‘for five minutes’ in NYC, to present $1 million check that Qatar promised for WJC’s birthday in 2011.” — Ami Desai, director of foreign policy for the Clinton Foundation, wrote in a 2012 e-mail.
On de Blasio
Early in 2015, when Mayor Bill de Blasio contacted the campaign about his Progressive Agenda plan “to organize progressives nationally to take on income inequality,” he wrote: “I believe you will agree with much of this content. Please let me know if you want to discuss.”
The e-mail response from Clinton campaign chair John Podesta was: “Should we care about this?”
“I’m not sweating it,” replied Neera Tanden, the president and chief executive of the Center for American Progress, who explained to Podesta that: “Politically, we are not getting any pressure to join this from our end.”
The dream of open borders
“My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, some time in the future with energy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere.” — Hillary in her remarks from a leaked speech to Banco Itau in May 2013
Needy Latinos
“A few calls you might consider making,” John Podesta wrote to Clinton in an e-mail with the subject line “Needy Latinos and 1 easy call.”
On Catholics
Referring to a New Yorker article about News Corp Executive Chairman Rupert Murdoch (who owns The Post), which stated he is raising his kids Catholic, Clinton aide John Halpin wrote in an e-mail:
“Friggin’ Murdoch baptized his kids in Jordan where John the Baptist baptized Jesus.
“Many of the most powerful elements of the conservative movement are all Catholic (many converts) from the SC [Supreme Court] and think tanks to media and social groups.
“It’s an amazing bastardization of the faith. They must be attracted to the systematic thought and severely backwards gender relations and must be totally unaware of Christian democracy.”
Palmieri, director of communications for the Clinton campaign, responds:
“I imagine they think it is the most socially acceptable politically conservative religion. Their rich friends wouldn’t understand if they became Evangelicals.”
On Putin
“I would love it if we could continue to build a more positive relationship with Russia,” Clinton said during a speech to Goldman Sachs on June 4, 2013. In the same speech, Clinton said, “Obviously we would very much like to have a positive relationship with Russia and we would like to see Putin be less defensive toward a relationship with the United States, so that we could work together on some issues.”
“One time, I was visiting with him in his dacha outside of Moscow, and he was going on and on, you know, just listing all of the problems that he thinks are caused by the United States,” Clinton said. “I said, ‘You know, Mr. Prime Minister, we actually have some things in common. We both want to protect wildlife, and I know how committed you are to protecting the tiger.’ I mean, all of a sudden, he sat up straight and his eyes got big and he goes, ‘You care about the tiger?’ ”
Out of touch
“I am not taking a position on any policy, but I do think there is a growing sense of anxiety and even anger in the country over the feeling that the game is rigged. And I never had that feeling when I was growing up. Never. I mean, were there really rich people, of course there were. My father loved to complain about big business and big government, but we had a solid middle class upbringing. We had good public schools. We had accessible health care . . . And now, obviously, I’m kind of far removed because the life I’ve lived and the economic, you know, fortunes that my husband and I now enjoy, but I haven’t forgotten it.” — Hillary Clinton remarks in a leaked speech to Goldman-BlackRock in February 2014.
Collusion with the meda:
. . . on TV
CNBC host John Harwood to Podesta in an e-mail about a Clinton interview on CNN:
“She looks so much more comfortable talking to Andrea [Mitchell] today than to Brianna [Keilar] a few weeks ago.”
Podesta was thankful for the journalist’s opinion, responding, “I think she’s over the hump.”
Clinton’s director of communications Jennifer Palmieri also “appreciated” Harwood’s help when he emailed her the suggestion to look up a certain video dating back to the Nixon presidency that could be beneficial to their efforts.
. . . in print
“I just wanted to make sure John Podesta had a heads up that his name will be in a story concerning the White House’s ethics policy, which could run on Monday,” WaPo White House Bureau Chief Juliet Eilperin told then-Obama White House Assistant Press Secretary Frank Benenati in a March 21, 2015, e-mail.
The story appeared March 22, 2015, under the headline, “Obama promised to curb the influence of lobbyists. Has he succeeded?”
. . . and with that “leaked” CNN question
On March 12, Donna Brazile, then vice chair of the DNC and a CNN and ABC contributor, allegedly wrote an email to the Clinton campaign with the subject line “From time to time I get the questions in advance.”
It continues:
“Here’s one that worries me about HRC…
“Should Ohio and the 30 other states join the current list and abolish the death penalty?”
Palmieri wrote back within three hours, seemingly not as worried:
“Hi. Yes, it is one she gets asked about. Not everyone likes her answer but can share it.”
She then instructs a copied employee to share the campaign’s standard answer to the question to Brazile. source

THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: Sunday Morning Rapture
The Bible doctrine of the Pretribulation Rapture of the body of Christ is an oft-ignored and much maligned subject here at the end of the falling away
The blessed hope of every born again Bible believer living in the Church Age dispensation is the Pretribulation Rapture, or catching away, of the body of Christ. Paul says that we are to speak about it, teach it, preach it and to comfort one another with the words in the Bible showing us the rapture. But in our day, because we live in the time Paul calls the ‘falling away’, the doctrine of the Pretribulation Rapture is not only not taught and not preached from the pulpit, it is maligned by lukewarm Laodiceans who cannot or will not ‘rightly divide’ the scripture. Today my message is ‘Sunday Morning Rapture’, everything you should know but don’t because no one taught it to you about the soon-coming catching away of the body of Christ into the clouds.
“Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” 1 Thessalonians 4:17,18 (KJB)
SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: Sunday Morning Rapture
Sunday Morning Rapture
The Rapture Is A New Testament Mystery Concerning The Church
The first thing we need to establish is that the church was not revealed in full in the Old Testament, and neither was the Rapture. The Old Testament contains types, shadows, patterns, and prophetic pictures, but the direct doctrinal revelation is given through Paul.
The Rapture was a ‘mystery’ truth
1 Corinthians 15:51-52 (KJB)
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
This is foundational. Paul does not say, “I remind you of what Isaiah fully explained.” He says, “I shew you a mystery.” That means the full doctrine was not plainly revealed before.
The church itself was a mystery not made known in other ages as it is now
Ephesians 3:3-6 (KJB)
“How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:”
The church as one body was not the subject of open Old Testament revelation. Therefore, the catching away of that body before the time of Jacob’s trouble is also not laid out in full doctrinal form in the Old Testament.
Christ and the church are joined as bridegroom and bride
Ephesians 5:30-32 (KJB)
“For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.”
The church is not Israel. The church is the body and bride of Christ, and the removal of that bride before the outpouring of wrath fits the pattern of Scripture.
The Classic Rapture Passages
- The Lord descends, the dead in Christ rise, and living saints are caught up
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (KJB)
“But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”
You will notice the following:
- This is for “the dead in Christ” and those alive in Christ.
- The saints are “caught up”.
- They meet the Lord “in the air”.
- Christ does not here come to the earth to set up the kingdom.
This is a comfort, not a warning of wrath.
The Instantaneous Change Of The Church
1 Corinthians 15:51-53 (KJB)
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.”
This is not the slow gathering of tribulation survivors into a kingdom. This is the instant transformation of the church.
Victory over death
1 Corinthians 15:54-57 (KJB)
“So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
The Rapture is the church’s bodily victory before the wrath to come.!!
The Church Is Told To Wait For God’s Son From heaven
1 Thessalonians 1:9-10 (KJB)
“For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.”
That is pretribulation language. The church is not appointed to enter the wrath and then survive it. Jesus “delivered us from the wrath to come.”
Appointed not to wrath
1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 (KJB)
“For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.”
In the immediate context, Paul has just spoken of “the day of the Lord” in 1 Thessalonians 5. The church is not appointed to that wrath.
Looking for that blessed hope
Titus 2:13 (KJB)
“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;”
The blessed hope of the church is not the rise of Antichrist, not the seals, not the trumpets, not the vials. It is Jesus Christ.
Christ Promised To Receive His Own Unto Himself
John 14:1-3 (KJB)
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”
This fits the Rapture beautifully:
- Christ comes for His own.
- He receives them unto Himself.
- He takes them to the Father’s house.
This is not the same scene as His return to earth in judgment.
The Church’s Citizenship And Bodily Change
Our conversation is in heaven, not here on the Earth. Believers are not looking for a ‘Golden Age’ here on Earth, and should reject it when offered.
Philippians 3:20-21 (KJB)
“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.”
Again, the church is looking up, not bracing for the outpouring of divine wrath.
The Appearing Of Christ For His People Produces Purity And Patience
1 John 3:2-3 (KJB)
“Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.”
This is church hope: transformation at His appearing.
The coming of the Lord draweth nigh
James 5:7-8 (KJB)
“Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.”
Though James has a strong tribulation flavor doctrinally, the principle still shows the saints living in expectation of the Lord’s coming.
The Church Is Kept Out Of The Hour, Not Preserved Through It
Kept from the hour of temptation not preserved through it. Big difference.
Revelation 3:10 (KJB)
“Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.”
Notice carefully:
- Not merely kept in temptation.
- Not merely kept through temptation.
- Kept from the hour itself.
That is removal before the global trial begins.
The Twenty-Four Elders In Heaven Before The Tribulation Judgments Unfold
Revelation 4:4 (KJB)
“And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.”
Revelation 5:9-10 (KJB)
“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.”
Before the seal judgments begin in earnest, a redeemed company is already seen in heaven, crowned and enthroned.
The Rapture Is A Comfort; The Second Coming Is Terror For The Unrepentant
1 Thessalonians 4:18 (KJB)
“Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”
Revelation 19:15 (KJB)
“And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.”
Those are not the same event.
Old Testament Pictures, Patterns, And Prophetic Hints Of A Pretribulation Rapture
Enoch: Removed Before The Flood Judgment
- Enoch walked with God and was taken
Genesis 5:24 (KJB)
“And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.”
The New Testament confirms Enoch was translated
Hebrews 11:5 (KJB)
“By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.”
Enoch is a powerful picture of the church:
- He walks with God.
- He is taken out.
- He does not see death.
- He is removed before the flood judgment falls.
Noah, by contrast, is preserved through the flood and pictures a remnant preserved through tribulation.
Noah: Preserved Through Judgment, Like Israel Through The Time Of Jacob’s Trouble
Genesis 7:16 (KJB)
“And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.”
Noah is not a picture of the church being raptured. Noah is a picture of a preserved remnant through judgment. That actually strengthens the distinction:
- Enoch = removed before wrath.
- Noah = preserved through wrath.
Lot: Removed Before Fire Fell
- The angels could do nothing until Lot was out
Genesis 19:22 (KJB)
“Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.”
- Jesus uses Noah and Lot as end-time patterns
Luke 17:26-30 (KJB)
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.”
Lot’s removal before fire falls is another pre-wrath pattern.
Isaac And Rebekah: The Gentile Bride Called Out While The Son Is Absent
Genesis 24:63-67 (KJB)
“And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels were coming. And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she lighted off the camel. For she had said unto the servant, What man is this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant had said, It is my master: therefore she took a vail, and covered herself. And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done. And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.”
Dispensationally this is a beautiful picture:
- Abraham pictures the Father.
- Isaac pictures the Son.
- The unnamed servant pictures the Holy Spirit.
- Rebekah pictures the called-out bride.
Joseph Takes A Gentile Bride Before He Reveals Himself To His Brethren
Genesis 41:45 (KJB)
“And Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.”
Joseph receives a Gentile bride before his later reconciliation with his brethren, a strong picture of Christ taking a predominantly Gentile church before Israel’s national restoration.
Boaz And Ruth: The Kinsman Redeemer Takes A Gentile Bride
Ruth 4:13 (KJB)
“So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.”
Again, not a formal doctrinal proof text, but a remarkable pattern of redemption and marriage.
Jacob’s Trouble Is For Jacob
Jeremiah 30:7 (KJB)
“Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.”
It does not say the time of the church’s trouble. It says Jacob’s trouble.
New Testament Passages Showing The Tribulation Is Not The Church’s Appointed Portion
1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 (KJB)
“But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.”
The contrast is plain:
- they / them = world under judgment
- ye / brethren = church not appointed to that wrath
Christ delivers believers from coming wrath
Romans 5:9 (KJB)
“Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.”
We are accepted in the Beloved, not reserved for condemnation
Romans 8:1 (KJB)
“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”
The tribulation is a period of divine judgment on a Christ-rejecting world and for the purging and restoration of Israel, not for condemning the body of Christ.
The Blessed Hope Compared With Israel’s Second Advent Hope
The church waits for Christ from heaven
Philippians 3:20 (KJB)
“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:”
Israel awaits Messiah’s manifestation to earth
Zechariah 12:10 (KJB)
“And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.”
The church’s hope is heavenly; Israel’s kingdom hope is earthly.
The Rapture Vs. Second Coming
The Rapture:
- Christ comes in the air — 1 Thessalonians 4:17 (KJB)
- He comes for His saints — John 14:3 (KJB)
- The church is caught up — 1 Thessalonians 4:17 (KJB)
- Bodies are changed instantly — 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 (KJB)
- It is called a blessed hope — Titus 2:13 (KJB)
- Believers are delivered from wrath to come — 1 Thessalonians 1:10 (KJB)
Second Coming:
- Christ comes to the earth — Zechariah 14:4 (KJB)
- He comes with His saints — Zechariah 14:5 (KJB); Revelation 19:14 (KJB)
- He comes in judgment and war — Revelation 19:11-15 (KJB)
- He destroys Antichrist — 2 Thessalonians 2:8 (KJB)
- He establishes visible kingdom rule — Revelation 19:15 (KJB)

Relentless Ballistic Barrages Over Israel By Iran And Hezbollah Tonight Result In Horrific Mass Casualty Event In Arad And Massive Destruction In Dimona
All day long, Hezbollah and Iran have been pounding Israel with missile and rocket fire resulting in some serious damage in the north and south
All day long, wave after wave of missiles have rained down on the tiny nation of Israel all day and all night tonight. Not just from one direction, not just from one enemy, but from multiple fronts in what can only be described as a coordinated, relentless barrage. Iran is launching long-range ballistic missiles, while Hezbollah pounds from the north with sustained rocket fire. This is not random. This is not isolated. This is a synchronized assault. And make no mistake about it—this is exactly what your King James Bible said would happen. (Please note that this is happening in real-time and events are changing rapidly.)
“He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.” Psalm 121:4 KJB
Iran, the modern-day Persia of your Bible, is not operating in a vacuum. They are moving according to a pattern laid out thousands of years ago. The Bible tells us that Persia will be part of a latter-day coalition that comes against Israel, and what we are seeing tonight looks like the opening stages of that alignment tightening into place. But here’s what makes this moment even more sobering, Israel is now facing not just proxies, but direct state-level aggression. Iran is no longer content to hide behind Hezbollah. They are stepping into the ring themselves, launching ballistic missiles straight into the land God calls His own.
This is what’s been happening all over Israel tonight
BREAKING NEWS: Reports coming in that Iran just dropped a Khorramshahr ballistic missile (seen here) on Israel in a series on dozens of direct hits today on the Jewish state. No one in the Middle East will be sleeping tonight. Buckle up, you’re in the end times. #nowtheendbegins pic.twitter.com/D3CGy96n90

While sirens wail and interceptors light up the night sky, there is something deeper happening here that the mainstream media will never tell you. This is not just a military conflict—it is a spiritual one. The hatred directed at Israel is ancient, and it is satanic at its root. Hezbollah firing from Lebanon. Iran launching from afar. Multiple fronts converging at once. This is exactly how a war of encirclement begins. The retaliation by the IDF will be every bit as stunning as the assault which Israel has just sustained, and somewhere in the midst of this end times back and forth, something really big is going to break lose.
Mass casualty event declared after Iranian missile strikes Arad building
FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: At least 64 people were wounded, including seven in serious condition, after an Iranian ballistic missile struck a building in the southern Israeli city of Arad on Saturday night. A five-year-old was among the seven seriously wounded in the attack, MDA said, adding that 15 were reported in moderate condition, and 42 lightly wounded. Attempts were being made to rescue some feared trapped under the rubble, ZAKA paramedics on the scene said. Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba declared a mass casualty event as wounded were rushed to hospitals for further treatment.
IDF sources said Home Front command forces rushed to the scene in Arad to assist in the evacuation of wounded residents. Sources also said the military was investigating why it failed to intercept the missile that struck in the city, alongside another direct hit in Dimona earlier on Saturday. Dimona was one of the main targets of Iranian missile fire over the past 24 hours, as the southern city faced repeated alerts and multiple impact scenes after interceptor fragments and missile debris fell across the area.

TEHRAN SHOCKER: As Iran Reveals Massive Underground Missile Facilities, The Tide Of World War Trump May Be Shifting Away From US And Israel
Tehran has plenty more cards to play in World War Trump from anti-ship cruise missiles to activating allied militias and sleeper cells
The fourth week of open war between Iran, Israel, and the United States is not bringing de-escalation — it is exposing just how much the Iranian regime has been holding back. Tehran has now attempted a long-range missile strike on the U.S.-U.K. base at Diego Garcia, demonstrating a reach of roughly 2,500 miles, a capability far beyond what most analysts believed Iran possessed. That is not a warning shot — that is a revelation. Now would be a good time to start praying for all the US soldiers put in harm’s way. NTEB has long enjoyed support from a large sector of active duty US servicemen and women, and we love you guys right back, so go get’em. Semper Fi!
“Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?” Luke 14:31 (KJB)
The West has assumed escalation dominance, but Iran is now signaling that it can stretch this war far beyond the immediate region. A 2,500-mile strike capability brings U.S. bases, shipping lanes, and allied infrastructure into a much wider threat envelope. That changes the strategic equation overnight. The battlefield is no longer just Israel and its borders — it is rapidly becoming global. And here is the part no one wants to say out loud: if Iran still has capabilities it has not yet revealed, then what we have seen so far is only the opening phase. The idea that the tide is safely in favor of Israel and the United States is beginning to crack. Not because Iran is winning — but because Iran is proving it can prolong, expand, and complicate this war in ways that drain time, resources, and certainty from its enemies. Wars are not only won by firepower alone. They are won by endurance, positioning, and the ability to change the battlefield faster than your opponent can react. Right now, Iran is signaling it intends to do exactly that. Long-range missiles, proxy forces spread across the Middle East, maritime choke points, and asymmetric warfare tactics all remain firmly on the table. What we are watching is not collapse, but calculated escalation. This is the moment where miscalculation becomes catastrophe.
The hidden weapons Iran is keeping in reserve
FROM THE iPAPER: Iran is revealing new military capabilities as its war with Israel and the US enters its fourth week, and the regime still has more cards to play, from as-yet-unseen missiles to allied militias and sleeper cells abroad. The missiles fired at the US-UK Diego Garcia base demonstrated a range of around 2,400 miles, far beyond previous estimates of Iran’s capabilities.
Tehran’s military also deployed the Haj Qasem, a newly developed medium-range ballistic missile with a half-tonne warhead, for the first time this week. Iran’s most powerful weapon, the Khorramshahr-4, has been used in greater numbers in recent attacks. Regime officials remain bullish despite heavy personnel and material losses inflicted by US-Israeli air strikes, and are threatening escalation.
Brigadier General Mohammad Akraminia said in an interview this week that: “We are using weapons in this war that we have not used in the past, and we will use them more in the coming days.”
After a sharp decline in Iran’s rate of fire of missiles and drones after the first days of the conflict, open-source conflict trackers say both launches and hits have increased, amid reports of declining interceptor stockpiles in the region. Deep Dive Defence, a pro-Iran military analysis blog, said that Iran has been practicing a strategy of “low intensity preserving warfare” in the hope of exhausting the US, Israel and Gulf allies, leaving high-value targets exposed to more damaging strikes. This week, Iran claimed a series of confirmed impacts in Israel, including on the Haifa refinery and strikes on critical energy infrastructure across the Gulf region.
Hey Pete, $200,000,000,000.00 is a LOT of money to spend to fight an enemy that is, as y’all are telling us, is “decimated” and “obliterated”. How about telling us the truth for a change? @DeptofWar @SecWar pic.twitter.com/YpF0lZG4bK

Iran continues to introduce surface-to-surface missiles to the war, and scored a notable success this week with a surface-to-air strike that brought a first hit on a US F-35 fighter jet. The US military said the aircraft was damaged but made an emergency landing, with the pilot in a stable condition. Iran has also tested – but not used in combat – space launch vehicles, such as the Simorgh and Zuljanah, which US analysts believe could be repurposed as long-range ballistic missiles, with a potential range in excess of 2,500 miles. Iran can achieve a similar range – sufficient to hit Diego Garcia – by reducing the size of the warhead on missiles such as the Khorramshahr-4, experts believe.

The regime is also known to have amassed a large stockpile of cruise missiles, including anti-ship variants that could prove effective in close-quarters fighting if naval vessels attempt to break its blockade of the strategic Strait of Hormuz. Farzan Sabet, an Iranian security and politics specialist at the Geneva Graduate Institute in Switzerland, said Iranian cruise missiles have not been effective in previous rounds of fighting against Israel but “could do more damage against less-prepared and nearer Gulf countries countries that have less time to track and intercept” them.

He added that its anti-ship missiles “could be very effective against civilian and even military vessels” in the narrow confines of the Hormuz Strait, although this has yet to be tested in practice. The US military has signaled its concern with a series of bunker-buster strikes along the coastline of the Strait that it said were targeting anti-ship cruise missile placements.
Donald Trump has pledged to seize control of the vital shipping route, and suggested the US Navy could provide escorts for oil tankers, but military planners are wary of exposing vessels to the dangers they would face, which could include marine drones and mines as well as missiles. READ MORE
