Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and French President Emmanuel Macron discussed the Israel-Hamas ceasefire, along with plans for Gaza and a Palestinian state

Emmanuel Macron is smelling victory, and had this to say on X earlier today: “I have just spoken with President Mahmoud Abbas. France is mobilizing all its forces to achieve the release of all the hostages, to renew a stable ceasefire and to ensure immediate access for humanitarian aid to Gaza. It is essential to build a framework for the day after: to disarm Hamas and remove it from the scene, to establish a credible government and to reform the Palestinian Authority. These steps will allow, within the framework of the June conference, progress towards a two-state political solution, for the peace and security of all. We need peace.” And there it is.

“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.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)

The full and official title of the event is Modalities for the High-level International Conference for the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution. It is to be held at the United Nations headquarters Monday June 2 and go to Wednesday June 4. Keynote speaker will be Emmanuel Macron along with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The two men will serve as co-chairs of the event. The purpose of this meeting is to, finally, create a Palestinian state on Israeli land. As of the date of this writing, we are 7 weeks away from this momentous end times event.

PA President Abbas, French President Macron discuss Israel-Hamas ceasefire, reject Gaza plan

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and French President Emmanuel Macron discussed the Israel-Hamas ceasefire, along with plans for Gaza, during a Monday phone call, Palestinian state-run WAFA News Agency reported Monday. Abbas emphasized the “urgent need for a ceasefire and the swift delivery of humanitarian aid” into the Gaza Strip. Abbas also stated his “firm rejection” of the plan to relocate Gazans from the Strip.

The two discussed the possibility of the Palestinian Authority assuming “full responsibility” in Gaza, including security duties, with the goal of “international legitimacy, one system, one law, and one legitimate source of arms.”

France’s recognition of a Palestinian state

Macron said on Wednesday France could recognize a Palestinian state in June, adding that in turn some countries in the Middle East could recognize the state of Israel.

“We need to move towards recognition of a Palestinian state. And so over the next few months, we will. I’m not doing it to please anyone. I’ll do it because at some point it will be right,” he said during an interview on France 5 television. READ MORE

It would seem that President Donald Trump is being used by God to advance the end times timeline in preparation of the coming Antichrist, get ready for Real ID

Last week on our X page, we brought you the news that Trump’s Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem made the stunning announcement that starting May 7th of this year, all citizens of the United States who wish to fly will now be required to carry the biometric digital identification known as Real ID. No exceptions. If you’re waiting for Trump to make America great again, you will find yourself still stuck in the waiting room. What is Trump up to? Being used of God and by God to advance the end times timeline. That’s the memo.

“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, this is what Ron Paul has said about Real ID. “The REAL ID Act establishes a national ID card by mandating that states include certain minimum identification standards on driver’s licenses. It contains no limits on the government’s power to impose additional standards. Indeed, it gives authority to the Secretary of Homeland Security to unilaterally add requirements as he sees fit. Supporters claim it is not a national ID because it is voluntary. However, any state that opts out will automatically make non-persons out of its citizens. The citizens of that state will be unable to have any dealings with the federal government because their ID will not be accepted. They will not be able to fly or to take a train. In essence, in the eyes of the federal government they will cease to exist. It is absurd to call this voluntary.” Y’all get that? Sure hope so. On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we bring you up to speed on the preparation of the United States of America to join the Beast system.

Remember during the Pandemic when it looked like Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab was going to impose a digital ID on everybody? As it turns out, Trump is beating them to it. Like we always tell you, the end times continue fulfilling no matter who is in office. That’s the memo. pic.twitter.com/niKO3HO3Iy

A few minutes later, you returned to tell me not to forget to look up the website. I told you…” I already did. I already subscribed.” In that short time we spoke, I experienced from you…a total stranger…peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, compassion, and love.

• I just want to thank you for the teachings you give every Sunday night on radio.  You are such a blessing to me. I absolutely love your way of teaching the scriptures.  I don’t have a church where I can have fellowship and teaching, so you have been my teacher for many months now. Thanks God you are there for all of us who have no church to go to.  I pray that the Lord will bless you abundantly in your ministry, and your loved ones too.  You are such a blessing to me, and many others, in these last days before the rapture.  Thank you so much Geoffrey, from the bottom of my heart. May the Lord keep you, until He comes back for us. You are in my prayers.” Donald Godin

Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ

The apostle Paul cared not for titles, certifications and the accolades of men, he had a much higher goal in mind. Paul was pressing toward the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus, and calls us to do the same. Preached live this morning at Bethany Baptist Church in Saint Augustine, Florida.

“I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14 (KJB)
