I know we have heard this
many times before, but from all indications it looks as if the “deal of the
century” peace plan is finally about to be revealed.
JERUSALEM — President Trump on Thursday invited
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his challenger in upcoming
elections, Benny Gantz, to Washington next week for a discussion of Trump’s
long-awaited Middle East peace plan...
Trump told reporters on Thursday that he would
probably put out his peace plan ahead of the meetings Tuesday. “Probably we’ll
release it a little bit prior to that,” he said.
Thus it looks like the peace plan will be unveiled in the next day or two. Now
that does not mean it will be adopted right away, if at all. It still has to be
agreed upon by all parties involved. But let’s not forget that President Trump
is a shrewd businessman and knows the art of the deal.
(Note: It is now being reported that President Trump tweeted that reports about the timing of the deal are speculative.)
And what might this peace deal entail? Here are a few articles that touch on a
few possible details of the plan, including a Palestinian state.
Leaked:
Trump’s Peace Plan will Lead to ‘Full Palestinian Statehood’
Saudi
official says 'Deal of Century' leads to full Palestinian statehood
Is this what the plan will entail, or has it been changed? Will the plan create
a Palestinian state? Those articles are from June 2019, so it is possible that
the plan has changed, especially in light of this recent article.
Report:
Trump’s Peace Plan Will Send 100,000 “Palestinians” to Canada
That is very interesting—so maybe they will get their own state but in another
country. In pondering the Israel/Palestinian conflict and a possible solution,
here is what comes to my mind.
And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took
bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her
shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in
the wilderness of Beersheba. Gen 21:14
Separation makes sense; when 2 people groups have irreconcilable differences,
sometimes it is prudent to separate them. So I guess we will find out in a day
or two what the plan entails.
Regardless of the minute details of the peace plan, if it divides the land
of Israel and or strengthens Israel’s enemies I believe that judgment will
follow.
Case in point, from the post: Hurricane
Matthew, President Obama, and Israel
...in the past major storms have followed
actions taken against Israel and her land. Case in point; Hurricane Katrina—we
ripped up some Israeli settlements and Hurricane Katrina ripped some of our
settlements. You can read the details here; 3 Lines
to Israel; One for Life, Two for Death.
In regards to Hurricane Matthew and the land of
Israel, on September 20, 2016 President Obama addressed the U.N. Here is what he
said in regards to Israel from the post; President
Obama, Israel, and the 2016 UN Speech.
President Obama addressed the UN General
assembly today 9/20/2016. Here are his comments regarding the Palestinian
issue.
“And surely, Israelis and Palestinians will be better off if Palestinians
reject incitement and recognize the legitimacy of Israel, but Israel recognizes
that it cannot permanently occupy and settle Palestinian land.”
https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2016/09/20/address-president-obama-71st-session-united-nations-general-assembly
As you can see the President has made it clear
that as far as he is concerned, Israel cannot keep some of her land. In the
past when nations have taken actions against the land of Israel it has resulted
in calamities such as Hurricane
Katrina, and the Fukushima
disaster.
Further In
light of that past history, it would suggest that these intended actions by our
President, if carried through with, could bring trouble upon our land.
Interestingly enough on 9/24/2016, which was four days after he made his
speech, a low formed in the Atlantic.
This low
would eventually become Tropical storm Matthew, which as you now know has
developed into a major hurricane. I would further surmise that at about the
same time as President Obama was making his speech at the U.N. (9/20/16), that
a tropical wave came off the coast of Africa, as usually occurs, and that this
wave developed into the Low on 9/24/16 which spawned Hurricane Matthew.
This is not the only action that was taken against Israel and her land in
recent days. On September 30, 2016 the White House put out the following
letter. Notice the word Israel crossed out.
This was a
definite slap in Israel’s face, and a reiteration of the White House policy
that Jerusalem does not belong to Israel. I wonder how God feels about that.
32 (But he shall have one tribe for my servant David's sake, and for
Jerusalem's sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of
Israel:) 1 Kings 11:32
Interestingly enough on September 30, 2016, the same day the memo was
released; Hurricane Matthew went from a category one hurricane with 80 mph
winds just before midnight, to a category 5 hurricane with 160 mph winds!
Again, that occurred on the same day the memo came out.
Need any
more be said? In light of all of this, it makes me wonder how the storm will
affect the mainland USA? Will it veer out to sea, or will it track up the East
Coast leaving a path of destruction along the way? In light of our recent
actions against Israel, it would surprise me if Hurricane Matthew does not
negatively impact the USA.
And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in
thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Gen 12:3
And what
did Hurricane Matthew do? Matthew was a catastrophic storm causing an estimated
16.5 billion in damage and over 600 deaths and did great destruction to parts
of the USA. Another instance of judgment
upon the world for its treatment of Israel is the 2011 Japan tsunami and
ongoing Fukushima nuclear disaster. You can read about it here, but in that
instance Japan strengthened Israel's enemies and judgment followed.
The
Nations Against Israel--An Evil Wind Bloweth
Thus the fact is firmly established in my mind, that when nations go
against Israel, judgment falls. So we will have to wait and see what the Trump
peace plan entails and how it will play out. But since the plan is rumored to
have a lot of economic components, it would not surprise me to see economic
judgments fall upon the world in the aftermath of the plan and or its
adoption.
Another important consideration to keep in mind is; will the peace plan divide
the land of Israel? In fact the dividing of the land of Israel may be signaled
in the infamous IPG2 film with the splitting of the apple--the apple of God's
eye--Israel, after which many disasters are signaled to occur.
In
regards to the peace plan and Bible prophecy, I want to make you aware that
this Trump “deal of the century” peace plan, if passed, could be the end times
peace plan spoken of in the Bible.
If it is, then it would have a 7 year component to it and in the midst of the 7
years the antichrist would strengthen it. That statement may be strange to some
because many Christians believe that the peace plan will begin the last 7
years, and the antichrist will be revealed, and the rapture will occur at this
time. I disagree; as I explain in The Coming Epiphay.
Revealing
of the antichrist
Another
argument presented by pre-trib adherents against the rapture occurring during
the 70th Week is that they assert that the rapture occurs at the
same time or immediately following the revealing of the antichrist. They reason
further that since the antichrist is revealed at the signing of the peace
treaty (the event that many believe starts the 70th Week), the rapture must
occur at the beginning of the 70th Week.
Proponents
of the pre-trib rapture formulate this belief from two passages:
Let no man
deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a
falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition. (2
Thess. 2:3)
And he shall
confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he
shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading
of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and
that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. (Dan. 9:27)
2
Thessalonians 2:3 does, indeed, tell us that the antichrist is revealed before
the rapture will take place, but Daniel 9:27 does not necessitate that the
antichrist be involved in the initial signing of the peace treaty. When you
examine the Hebrew, the true meaning becomes clearly evident. Roy Reinhold,
author of The Day of the Lord and an expert in Hebrew, has this to say about
the verse:
The “he” is
the same person throughout the verse. Higbir is a hifil 3ms perfect verb, and
the Qal root verb is gavar meaning “to be strong, to conquer.” A Hifil is
“causative,” and so in this case the usage is “and he caused to be made strong”
a covenant for the many for one period of seven. In no way does this imply that
the “he” the antichrist originates the peace treaty. What it clearly shows is
that the antichrist comes along after the peace treaty is in effect and he
agrees with it and enforces its provisions.[1]
So an
analysis of the Hebrew brings out the fact that, when the antichrist is
revealed and comes to power in the midst of the 70th Week, the peace treaty
will already be in effect and “he,” the antichrist, will merely confirm and or
strengthen it. Thus, a more accurate translation of the verse would read: “And
he will strengthen the covenant that was made with many for a week: and in the
midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease.”
So if the
antichrist will not be the one to make the peace treaty, who is? The Hebrew
rendering of this verse tells us the peace treaty will be made with “the many.”
This suggests that the treaty will probably be the result of an effort by many
nations—like we see now with the “Road Map”—to bring peace to the tumultuous
Middle East situation.
We also
cannot assume that the signing or beginning of the peace treaty aligns with the
beginning of the 70th Week. The peace treaty may simply be a treaty
with terms in effect for 7 years signed sometime during the 70th
Week that the antichrist strengthens during “in the midst” of the 70th
Week.
Scripture tells us that the antichrist does not come to power and reign until
the last 3.5 years of the 70th Week of Daniel after the Abomination of
Desolation has occurred. In reference to the antichrist, Revelation 13:5 says,
“and there was given unto him a mouth speaking great blasphemies; and power was
given unto him to continue forty and two months.” Thus his reign starts shortly
after the occurrence of the Abomination of Desolation in which he deceives the world
into thinking that he is God and his reign continues until he is thrown in the
lake of fire at the conclusion to the battle of Armageddon.
2
Thessalonians 2:4 confirms when the revealing takes place:
Let no man
deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a
falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who
opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is
worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself
that he is God.
That verse tells us that the man of sin will not be revealed until he sets
himself up as God, and he does that at the Abomination of Desolation: “and that
man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition . . . so that he as God sitteth in
the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” The verse further tells us
“that day shall not come,” in reference to the Day of the Lord and the rapture,
until after the antichrist sets himself up as God. As we have just pointed out,
that does not happen until after the Abomination of Desolation.
Daniel 7:24
further confirms that the antichrist does not arise until after the peace
treaty is signed, showing us that the antichrist (little horn) comes after the
New World Order (NWO)—the “ten horns”—is established. “And the ten horns out of
this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them;
and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.” The
establishment of the NWO does not begin until after the first seal is opened,
which we will discuss in detail in another chapter. Thus, Daniel 7:24 confirms
that the antichrist arises after the establishment of the NWO, which comes
after the peace treaty is signed.
Therefore,
to say that the antichrist will be revealed before the rapture is correct, but
to say that he will be revealed before the 70th Week, or that the rapture
occurs before or at the same time that he is revealed, has no scriptural
support. In fact, the scriptures make it clear that the Day of Christ will not
come until after he is revealed at the Abomination of Desolation.

Thus the
Trump deal of the century peace plan may be the peace plan of Biblical
prophecy, and if it is, it will not be accompanied by the rapture, which will
not occur until after
Seal 6 is opened.
And
further, if this turns out to be the peace plan of prophecy, which is highly
possible, it would fit right in with “the most likely end times scenario” which
has the last 7 years possibly beginning on 10/19/19. See the post: Calculations
for the "End of Days"
Regardless
of whether or not this deal of the century plan is the peace plan of prophecy,
in the past actions against Israel and or her land were met with judgments. I
applaud President Trump for trying to bring peace to the Middle East, however
strengthening Israel's enemies and or dividing up her land is not the solution
and will only bring judgment upon our land.
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 Thes 5:3
It is interesting to note that this peace plan revealing was announced on
1/23/20 and look what else was announced on that day.

Let's not forget that the Taal volcano is showing signs that a large eruption
may be imminent. FYI; large volcanic eruptions can quickly and dramatically
change the climate of the earth, which can lead to global crop failures and
year's without a summer. We are also in the Nibiru large earthqukae/volcano watch period which centers on 1/25/20. Since 1/18/20 5ea M6.0+ earthquakes have occurred. Update: A M6.8 just occurred in Turkey, that makes 6.

KING: I
would imagine the biggest question here is whether scientists are saying they
think this volcano is going to erupt again and when.
MCCARTHY:
Well, that's exactly right. There seems to be this sense that - the scientist
monitoring the volcano here say that Taal is swelling and that in the northeast
corner, it has sunk. It looks as though the landscape is changing. It is
changing. And that's ominous.
Let
me also remind everyone that if we are in the 91 day period before the arising
of the antichrist and the midpoint of the last 7 years, then Seals 1 to 4 will
be opened and 25% of the world’s population will die.
Update 1/28: Today the deal of the century peace plan was unveiled, and today a 7.7 earthquake struck south of Cuba that was felt in Mar a Lago.
