UNESCO, Gilad Shalit, & Iran – reflections of an orthodox Jew

editor 10 November 2011

by Sondra Oster Baras.. These past few weeks have included a number of significant events, seemingly unrelated, and yet all bear watching for their inevitable affect on current affairs in Israel. As we face the growing threats, we Jews in Israel will be drawing our strength upon our unique traits.We will hold on to our country and our land even as so many nations of the world seek to erase us as a people. We did not survive these many centuries to be too upset when we lose a popularity contest. We will fight for our survival and pray for G-d’s blessing and we can take comfort in the fact that He promised our eternal survival.  But, unique to Israel, we will take comfort in the fact that we are all in this together – that brother will fight for brother and mothers will protect children.

Jerusalem, the UN and the times of the Gentiles

Willem Glashouwer 28 September 2011

When we see what is happening in the UN at the moment, we are reminded of what our Lord said about Jerusalem. Jesus spoke a lot about Jerusalem, and what would happen to Jerusalem in the future. He said “Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled”.  This has something to do with His coming again, at the end of the age. Is that the time we are living in?   (more…)
