God is giving us His warning in the very fulfillment of the prophecies that are thousands of years old.

ARE YOU AWAKE? ARE YOU WATCHING? ARE YOU READY?

We as believers must be aware of exactly where we are in God's prophetic timetable. Knowing that, along with the holy Spirit, will give us the courage and urgency to do what Jesus commanded us to do...
"Go and preach the gospel".

Be informed! Join us and other like-minded Believers as we pray and study so we will NOT be as those in darkness, caught off guard, but we will walk in the light and know that our Redeemer is at the door!

NY Times Calls Neighborhood in Jerusalem 'West Bank Settlement'

The New York Times, in keeping with the Obama adminstration's policy that many Jewish neighborhoods in Jerusalem are "settlements," has corrected a photo caption in which it used that term for a Jewish neighborhood in the city, also stating it is the "West Bank.  It is a neighborhood in East Jerusalem, not a settlement in the West Bank.”
However, the term “East Jerusalem” also is inaccurate. It refers to all parts of the city that were restored to Israel in the Six-Day War in 1967, and those areas include neighborhoods in southern and northern Jerusalem as well as in the eastern part of the capital.
The term "East Jerusalem” also implies that it is a separate political entity, unlike the term “eastern” or “southern” Jerusalem, which refers to an area in relationship to the rest of the city. 
Unlike parts of Judea and Samaria that were to be part of the country of ”Trans-Jordan,” the United Nations Partition Plan did not allocate to Jordan any parts of Jerusalem, which was supposed to be administered by the United Nations.
 Another term that has been recognized internationally but is misleading is “West Bank", meaning the land that lies west of the Jordan River. Literally speaking, that would include all of the Land of Israel whose border is the Mediterranean Sea. In practice it is used to refer to Judea and Samaria.
The world is trying to divide the land of Israel, in rebellion to God's Word. 
Joel 3
"In those days and at that time,
       when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
 2 I will gather all nations
       and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. [a]
       There I will enter into judgment against them
       concerning my inheritance, my people Israel
,
       for they scattered my people among the nations
       and divided up my land.
