This looks worldwide to me! We should know in the near future if this treaty has the potential of bring peace to Israel. We must remember that Daniel 9:27a refers to Antichrist confirming a peace with Israel that starts the clock for the seven years of the Tribulation.
I fervently believe that the Rapture will precede the confirming of this covenant. Praise the Lord we could fly real soon!
What is driving Prime Minister Olmert to be willing to consider giving up key real estate in the Holy Land?
- The Golan is key to keeping the Galilee free from receiving rocket fire from the heights east of the Sea of Galilee.
- The West Bank is Biblical Judea with Bethlehem being the birth place of King David.
- Jerusalem is the site of the Temple Mount.
Each concession that Israel has recently made to the Palestinians has resulted in disastrous results:
- The Oslo Peace which allow Arafat to move his base of operation into the West Bank and Gaza.
- The pull out of Lebanon has not led to peace.
- The withdrawal from Gaza has led to riots and the take over of Gaza by Hamas.
One can only imagine what lies ahead for Israel!
