Brother we live in America, Yuttah comes from Munich, but lives here now. We've never had major confrontation on our shores, but I'm thinking a large percentage of the world hates us here. I'm also thinking we are heading for a great fall. We have a horrible leader, whats going to replace him isn't any better, the cost of living is out of control. Prices keep going up. wages don't. We want to sell our house and move to the Mountains, the only problem is the real estate market is falling apart. We live on an Island now, it used to be nice here, but so many tourist have moved in, its starting to resemble Miami Beach. There isn't one Torah observant beleiver in Yahshua in this town besides us.

People should learn the prophecies and learn Torah, but most won't, they laugh at us. I agree we should prepare, but how do you prepare for nukes? My thinking is there won't be much world, or life left after another World War. Everyone is screaming Israel, and we're ready to go, we want to go, but everyone should understand Israel is probally going to be the middle of the conflict.

"Woe to those that long for the day of YAHWEH, what is the day of YAHWEH, but darkness."

I hate to paint a picture of doom and gloom, but I think doom and gloom is coming for many. I just pray Yuttah and I, and all of you are counted worthy.

Shalom Duane

Grüssen Yuttah! - you may enjoy a recent sermon I wrote about Germany and her Israelite origins at:

East Manasseh and Germany:
Unveiling an Israelite Tribe

I know your city and the beautiful Frauenkirche - my distinct memory of the place is capturing a UFO on a picture I took of the Deutsche Museum - the only other time I managed to snap one was at Passau (these were the days before I became a believer and I was a keen UFO researcher). I am told I have relatives from somewhere near Hof in north Bayern but I have never been able to confirm that.

Duane, I believe YHWH always gives His servants time to prepare and will not leave us exposed if we love and obey Him in all things. Preparing for these times has been a major concern of this ministry now for the last 22 years. I am of the firm belief, confirmed by revelation, that one of our tasks is to construct 12 'cities' of refuge internationally, one for each of the gathering of the 12 tribes, where YHWH's people can find safety during the Tribulation. YHWH has shown me in visions that when the time comes, He will act in a major way to gather to these places of safety. We have a number of prophecy pages but this one may interest you:

Also see The Final Gathering (only half the second edition is up, I'm afraid).

This is a big subject, I will come back to you on it again shortly as I am rushedf for time right now.

Baruch haShem YHWH!

As you know Lev, I live in Scandinavia, but I might move to Yerushalayim, Israel sometime this or next year.

You must do as the Ruach leads you, of course, but my counsel would be to stay as far away from the Holy Land as you possibly can - see my last sermon and in particular Returning Home to the Land of Israel. I believe there is the stronlg likelihood of a devastating war in the region this year or soon after that may see the destruction of the Israeli state.

Islam, the Bible, and End Time Events
Dear Saints. I’ve been reading an awesome book called “Antichrist, Islam’s Awaited, Messiah” by Joel Richardson published by Pleasant World, A Division of Winepress Publishing. What a phenomenal work. I want to share a list with you, because it gives Biblical and Islamic parallels of end time events. Let me assure you that each comparison has been carefully researched and documented, using the Holy Bible, the Quran, and Hadiths of Islam. The great cloud of witnesses is staggering. Ready?

A Summary of Comparisons Between The Islamic and Biblical Narratives of The End Times
So in summary we conclude this section with a final review of the many startling similarities that exist between the biblical narrative of the last days and the Islamic narrative of the same period.
• Bible: The Antichrist is an unparalleled political, military and religious leader that will emerge in the last days.
• Islam: The Mahdi is an unparalleled political, military and religious leader that will emerge in the last days.

• Bible: The False Prophet is a secondary prominent figure that will emerge in the last days who will support the Antichrist.
• Islam: the Muslim Jesus is a secondary prominent figure that will emerge in the last days to support the Mahdi.

• Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet together will have a powerful army that will do great damage to the earth in an effort to subdue every nation and dominate the world.
• Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will have a powerful army that will attempt to control every nation of the earth and dominate the World.

• Bible: The False Prophet is described essentially as a dragon in lamb’s clothing.
• Islam: The Muslim Jesus literally comes bearing the name of the one that the world knows as “The Lamb of God: Jesus Christ.” Yet the Muslim Jesus, comes to murder all those who do not submit to Islam.

• Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet establish a new world order.
• Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus establish a New World Order.

• Bible: The antichrist and the False Prophet institute new laws for the whole earth.
• Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus institute Islamic law all over the earth.

• Bible: The Antichrist is said to “change the times”.
• Islam: It is quite certain that if the Mahdi established Islam all over the earth, he would discontinue the use of Saturday and Sunday as the weekend or days of rest but rather Friday, the hold day of Islam. Also, he would most certainly eliminate the Gregorian calendar (A.D.), and replace it with Islamic calendar (A.H.) as is used in every Islamic country.

• Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will both be powerful religious leaders who will attempt to institute a universal world religion.
• Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will institute Islam as the only religion in the earth.

• Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will execute anyone who does not submit to their religion.
• Islam: Likewise, the Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will execute anyone who does not submit to Islam.

• Bible: The Antichrist and the False prophet will specifically use beheading as the primary means of execution for non-conformists.
• Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will use the Islamic practice of beheading for executions.

• Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will have a specific agenda to kill as many Jews as possible.
• Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will kill as many Jews as is possible until only a few are left hiding behind rocks and trees.

• Bible: The Antichrist will set himself up in the Jewish Temple as his seat of authority.
• Islam: The Mahdi will establish the Islamic Caliphate from Jerusalem.

• Bible: The False Prophet is said to do many miracles to deceive as many as possible into supporting the Antichrist.
• Islam: The Mahdi himself is said to control the weather and the crops . His face is said to glow. We can also assume that since Jesus is viewed as having been empowered by Allah to work miracles when he was here on earth the first time, he will most likely be expected to continue to do so when he returns.

• Bible: The Antichrist is described as riding on a white horse in the Book of Revelation.
• Islam: The Mahdi is described as riding on a white horse (ironically from the same verse).

• Bible: The Antichrist is said to make a peace treaty with Israel for seven years.
• Islam: The Mahdi is said to make a peace treaty through a Jew (specifically a Levite) for exactly seven years.
• Bible: Jesus the Jewish Messiah will return to defend the Jews in Israel from a military attack from a vast coalition of nations led by the Antichrist and the False Prophet.
• Islam: The Dijjal, the Islamic Antichrist will gain a great Jewish following and claim to be Jesus Christ and fight against the Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus.

• Bible: The Antichrist spirit specifically denies the most unique and central doctrines of Christianity, namely the trinity, the incarnation and substitutionary death of Jesus on the cross.
• Islam: Islam doctrinally and spiritually specifically denies the most unique and central doctrines of Christianity, namely the trinity, the incarnation and substitutionary death of Jesus on the cross.

• Bible: The primary warning of Jesus and the Apostle Paul was to warn Christians of the abundance of deceit and deception in the last-days.
• Islam: Islam is perhaps the only religion in the earth that practices deceit as one of its tools to assist its own ascendancy. It actually has a specific doctrine which allows and even calls for deception to be used to achieve its desired end.

• Bible: The specific nations pictured in the Bible as being part of the final empire of the Antichrist are all Islamic nations.
• Islam: All Muslims are commanded to give their allegiance to the Mahdi as the final Caliph and Imam (leader) of Islam.

• Bible: From the Bible and history we learn that the final Antichrist Empire will be a revived version of the empire that succeeds the Roman Empire.
• Islam: the Empire that succeeded the Roman/Byzantine Empire was the Islamic Ottoman Empire.

• Bible: When Antichrist emerges, there will already be some form of system in place that will be poised to receive him as a Savior and to give allegiance to him.
• Islam: Islam is already the second largest religion and will at present growth rates become the largest religion within a few decades. Islam is awaiting the coming of the Mahdi with an increasing measure of anticipation.
