Iron dome installed in Israel to defend against Syria

The Iron Dome anti-missile defense system has been installed in northern Israel, according to the IDF, due to the escalating civil war in Syria. The move comes in response to increasing concerns that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad may lose control over the chemical weapons arsenal in the country.

Should that occur, the lethal arsenal held by Israel’s northern neighbor could be handed over, or become vulnerable to theft by a number of Islamic terrorist organizations, among them Hizbullah or Al Qaeda.

Turkey has already requested — and received — Patriot anti-missile batteries from NATO for the essentially same reasons.

Iron Dome anti-missile batteries have been deployed in multiple locations, including in the Haifa area, military officials said.

In order to be effective, chemical weapons must be released at a range that is relatively close to their targets. The chemicals, some of which are released in gaseous form, are loaded into warheads on missiles that are fired either from the ground or from fighter planes.

My Comment:

In addition to above, Russia issues a critical warning of a major terrorist attack here in the States between now and February 12. And Israel deploying a large number of Iron Domes as we speak.

Something big is about to happen. The signs are clear. Syria AKA Damacus will reap what they’ve sown. The Word of God is the complete truth, and Syria was warned.

Isaiah 17:1-14 An oracle concerning Damascus. Behold, Damascus will cease to be a city and will become a heap of ruins. The cities of Aroer are deserted; they will be for flocks, which will lie down, and none will make them afraid. The fortress will disappear from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus; and the remnant of Syria will be like the glory of the children of Israel, declares the Lord of hosts. And in that day the glory of Jacob will be brought low, and the fat of his flesh will grow lean. And it shall be as when the reaper gathers standing grain and his arm harvests the ears, and as when one gleans the ears of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.

The signs of the End are about to get alot stronger. China is stock piling rice, and other necessities. Russia has issued a major warning, and Israel once again will defend themselves against those that threaten them.

Matthew 24:7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

Matthew 24:34 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.

Our Messiah is near!

BIG SUNSPOT RELEASES INTENSE SOLAR FLARE

The surface of the sun erupted in a solar flare early Friday, unleashing a blast of super-heated plasma into space.

A huge sunspot known as AR1654 produced the M1-class flare at 4:11 a.m. EST, officials with NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory said in a description of the event. The SDO spacecraft is one of several sun-watching space telescopes keeping tabs on solar flares and other sun weather events.

According to Spaceweather.com, sunspot AR1654 is growing more active and is now “crackling with M-class solar flares” like the one that erupted today.

“AR1654 is getting bigger as it turns toward Earth,” the website reported. “Not only is the chance of flares increasing, but also the chance of an Earth-directed eruption. This could be the sunspot that breaks the recent lengthy spell of calm space weather around our planet.”

My Comments:

Those that flip through news sites probably would regard these things as just news, something to report about. But behind these tragedies happening throughout the world, and when compared to the Word of God, the obvious is clear, Jesus continues to be warning us that the time for his arrival is so near.

Pestilence, quakes, famines, signs in the sky were just some of the things the Lord told us to watch out for.

Luke 21: 11

There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

There is more to come, and it will get far worse. Earthquakes will multiply as well as famine, and every sign the Lord told us to look for. Some will awaken early enough to recognize this is the Messiah warning us, and most will realize it is too late.

Luke 21:25-28

“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”

Strange booms upset parts of the US

The loud explosion that jolted North Hollywood on Tuesday night remained a mystery the next morning, authorities said.

Strange things are taking place several places in America.

So what was it?

An officer at the Los Angeles Police Department’s North Hollywood station said police searched the area for a half an hour Tuesday night.

But the police had no luck in determining what caused the sound.

The officer said police received numerous calls about the noise. At about 9:30 p.m., numerous people began tweeting about a loud explosion.

Some thought it had come from a North Hollywood Metro station; others reported hearing an explosion in Studio City.

LEXINGTON COUNTY, SC :

Residents of Red Bank in Lexington County appear to have gotten a loud awakening Thursday morning as multiple reports indicate a loud booming noise in the area.

WIS News 10 viewers poured onto our Facebook page this morning to report the sound.

“What was the horrific boom in the Redbank area,” asked Lisa Russell Fields. “People are saying it sounded like a plane crash or explosion.”

“I also heard the “big boom” this morning. So did a lot of other people, it sounds like a close cannon or something and will shake the whole building/house,” said Jennifer Lee Stokes Kleine.

“Does anyone have a concrete explanation for the loud boom that shook houses in Lexington County around the Redbank/YMCA/Old Barnwell Road area this morning around 8:30 a.m.,” said Mary Frances Henry Bell.

So, what was it? The Lexington County Sheriff’s Department doesn’t know either.

My comment:

There was an additional booming noise reported in Utah, and that story can be read by clicking HERE.

It’s no coincidence that mankind cannot explain what these booming noises are. There are two sides to a coin; with mankind either not being able to explain what is occurring, or giving their scientific opinions on what they think is occurring.

But we believers in Christ know the truth. Our Lord Jesus Christ had indicated to us what the signs would be prior to his coming.

Luke 21:25-26

“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.

It would be no surprise to me if these noises continued, and became even more frequent, happening throughout the world. Jesus is warning, and in his love for us, he continues to tell us his time is near.

Luke 21:34-36

“Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap. For it will come upon all those who live on the face of the whole earth. Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

All Glory goes to Christ forever!

Palestinian mothers prepares their children to kill themselves in acts of terrorism against Israel

In a separate story, photo of mother approving daughter's suicide bombing. — In a separate story, photo of mother approving daughter’s suicide bombing.

The wife of a Hamas member of parliament hailed the role of Palestinian mothers in preparing their children to kill themselves in acts of terrorism against Israel. Encouraging her children to “wage Jihad for the sake of allah” is “the most glorious thing a woman can do,” she said.

In an interview on Hamas’s Al-Aqsa TV channel, Umm Osama, wife of Hamas MP Khalil Al-Hayya, said that she, her husband and her children all prayed that Allah would grant them martyrdom.

“Women in Palestine play a great role in raising their children and in encouraging them to wage Jihad for the sake of Allah,” she told the Gaza TV channel, in comments broadcast last month and recorded, reposted and transcribed Monday by the MEMRI (Middle East Media Research Institute) watchdog. “This is absolutely the most glorious thing a woman can do. Women play their role and are not inferior to men. When a man goes to wage Jihad, his wife does not say ‘Don’t go’ or try to stop him. She encourages and supports him. She is the one who prepares his equipment, bids him farewell, and welcomes [his Jihad].”

The mother “instills in her children the love of Jihad and martyrdom for the sake of Allah,” she went on. “If every mother were to prevent her son from waging Jihad for the sake of Allah, who would wage Jihad? Who would support Palestine? Palestine is dear to us, and its price is paid with our body remains and our lifeblood. Is not Allah’s reward precious? Allah’s reward is Paradise. Paradise requires from us our blood, our body remains, and our efforts for its sake.”

My comment:

As a parent, my mind cannot grasp teaching a child how to murder anyone. Children who rely on their mother for their love and safe keeping are being taught to take lives. The evil that exists in this world is heart wrenching. But Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ sees all. And everyone will have to give an account to our Lord.

The Bible tells us exactly what Jesus thinks of children.

Psalm 127:3-5 Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.

Living in the end times as we are, I would imagine that this situation will only get worse. But Jesus tells you what he thinks of those who commits atrocities such as these.

Matthew 18:6 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

The power in God’s Word is humbling. For Jesus to tell us you’d be better off to hang a millstone around our neck, and drowning-then to cause a child to sin, Our Savior’s Words are Great! Yet, many such as Umm Osama, wife of Hamas MP Khalil Al-Hayya, choose to believe the lies of satan, rather than the eternal World of Christ.

And even the disciples asked, “Who is the greatest in heaven?”

Matthew 18:1-3 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

Let us pray for these innocent children who are forced to sin all over the World. Jesus sees all, and comes soon. Let us also pray to become like children to enter the kingdom of heaven!

Matthew 18:10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.

God Bless,

Gloria
