The Abraham Accords Forever Changed The Middle East As Israel Is Now On A Rendezvous With Destiny And The Daniel 9:27 Peace Covenant Confirmation With Antichrist

The deal was called the Abraham Accords, named after the forefather of Jews and Arabs, and it leads Israel to the time of Jacob’s trouble.

And then came the moment that changed everything: A phone call between Trump, Netanyahu and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, leading to the announcement of peace on Trump’s Twitter account. The deal was called the Abraham Accords, named after the forefather of Jews and Arabs.

What a year it was. If you are a student of bible prophecy, 2020, was absolutely off-the-charts for you, I know it was for me. COVID-19 and the Great Reset aside, the story of the year was the stunning revelation and subsequent development of the Abraham Accords peace treaty between Israel and, well, all the Muslim nations that surround them. You know that old expression “kill them with kindness”? That would appear to be exactly what is taking place through the Abraham Accords.

“For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee: The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes; Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.” Psalm 83:2-8 (KJB)

The common interpretation of Psalm 83 is that all the Muslim nations that surround Israel will form a confederacy between themselves, and then come at Israel in a united front. But what if that united front comes at Israel in the form of a peace covenant, a trap to lure them in and then strike? You know what the bible has to say about where ‘peace and safety’ in the absence of the King of Peace leads you, in case you forgot, here it is:

“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 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)

Furthermore, you do also realize that the apostle Paul was referencing the prophet Jeremiah when he borrowed that metaphor of a ‘man giving birth’, right? So what does that tell you? It tells you that a ‘peace treaty’ between Israel and her Muslim neighbors leads you directly to the time of Jacob’s trouble. That’s what it tells you if you believe the bible, I sure do.

“Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.” Jeremiah 30:6,7 (KJB)

This is exactly where the Abraham Accords will lead Israel, directly to the doorstep of Antichrist confirming the Daniel 9:27 covenant. The prophet Daniel tells us that the Antichrist ‘confirms the covenant’, he doesn’t create the covenant, it is already in place when he steps on the scene. I submit to you who study bible prophecy that that covenant is right now in place in the form of the Abraham Accords, and that the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church is right around the corner.

“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.” Daniel 9:27 (KJB)

The Time Of Jacobs Trouble

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ISRAEL AND THE COMING TIME OF JACOB’S TROUBLE

The Abraham Accords domino effect will lead to more peace deals

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: The love affair between Israelis and Emiratis began immediately. There was an effusive outpouring of support and excitement on social media from regular people in both countries. And on the diplomatic level, the governments immediately took action to make normalization a reality. Less than two weeks later, the first-ever Israeli delegation to the UAE landed in Abu Dhabi, led by National Security Adviser Meir Ben-Shabbat. Israeli flags waved in the airport where an El Al plane landed in Abu Dhabi for the first time.

The ensuing months have brought a flurry of business, cultural and diplomatic exchanges, and, of course, many thousands of Israeli tourists in Dubai this month, when the UAE was one of the only “green” countries Israelis could visit without having to quarantine when they arrived home. Even the talk of a deal to allow the UAE to buy F-35 planes could not mar the excitement. The US, Israel and the UAE have all said that the fighter jets were not part of the peace deal and never came up between the two Middle Eastern countries. At the same time, the US and UAE pointed out that Israel lifting its opposition to the sale – after Gantz met with his American counterpart and they reached an arrangement that satisfactorily maintained Israel’s qualitative military edge – was what greased the wheels on something the UAE had been seeking for the past six years.

In the last few months, we have also seen a veritable domino effect. It took the UAE’s courage to be the first Arab country in decades to take the plunge and establish diplomatic relations with Israel to inspire more to follow. Bahrain’s announcement came less than a month later, and its foreign minister took part in a peace-signing ceremony at the White House a few days after that. In mid-October, Ben-Shabbat led another delegation, this time to Manama. The Bahrain peace deal didn’t come with any strings attached to date, and has been purely about normal diplomatic and business ties, which have moved at a rapid pace, as with the UAE.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE CHRISLAM ‘ABRAHAM ACCORD’ BETWEEN ISRAEL AND UAE WAS MISSING LINK NEEDED TO LAUNCH VATICAN ABRAHAMIC FAITHS INITIATIVE

The next two dominoes to fall were Sudan and Morocco, but in a somewhat different way. In both cases, ties with Israel came together with a major shift in US policy in favor of those countries. Normalization with Sudan is highly symbolic for Israelis. Khartoum was the site of the Arab League’s “three noes” of 1967: no negotiations, no recognition, no peace with Israel. For Khartoum to overturn those three is truly momentous. The business opportunities in Sudan are fewer for Israelis, but Israel has already offered help in the areas of agriculture, water use, solar energy and more.

For Sudan, the normalization story was something else entirely. The announcement of steps toward ties with Israel came in late October, after pressure from Pompeo during negotiations to remove the African state from the US list of state sponsors of terrorism. That removal came over a year and a half after Sudanese dictator Omar al-Bashir was removed and Burhan, a Sudanese Army general, and civilian leader Abdalla Hamdok formed a government aimed at transitioning toward democracy. Getting off the list will likely drastically help Sudan’s economic recovery and access to international aid.

While the US denied making an ultimatum – recognize Israel or you stay on the list – it’s clear that Khartoum felt serious pressure. Hamdok was opposed to ties with Israel, while Burhan was more in favor – after all, he had met Netanyahu already – and both realized it was risky while their country’s situation was so shaky, but in the end they did it. Normalization with Israel was a small step to take toward something that was much bigger and more important for Sudan.

The same could be said about normalization between Israel and Morocco, announced in December. In King Mohammed VI’s announcement, a few short bullet points on renewing diplomatic relations with Israel came after seven lengthy paragraphs on the Trump administration’s agreement to recognize Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara. That recognition is the big prize Morocco wanted.

If the king had not been holding out for a big prize – as he saw Sudan and to some extent the UAE received – ties with Israel would have been easy. Israel and Morocco had secret ties, including intelligence sharing, for decades, and partial diplomatic relations in the 1990s. Those relations were officially suspended in 2000, but some level of ties has always continued, and many Israelis visit Morocco each year.

Still, since a million Israelis have roots in Morocco, and many have fond, positive feelings for the country and its royal family, this move was celebrated in Israel. And Morocco’s tourism minister expects 200,000 Israeli visitors a year, post-corona.

With 2020 behind us and 2021 beginning, there is discussion of even more dominoes falling, and even more countries joining the Abraham Accords. Trump administration officials have said they’re working to even make it happen in the next three weeks, before President-elect Joe Biden takes office.

Mauritania, Oman and Indonesia are the names on Israeli and American officials’ tongues these days, which makes sense, because Israel has or has had some level of ties with all of them. Mauritania declared war on Israel in 1967, but the countries established diplomatic relations in 1999, which were suspended in the wake of Operation Cast Lead in 2009.

Former prime minister Yitzhak Rabin visited Indonesia, the most populous Muslim country, and thousands of Israeli and Indonesian tourists visit each other’s countries each year. Netanyahu visited Oman in 2018, and Israel and Oman are part of the anti-Iran axis in the Middle East.

But the big hope is for Saudi Arabia.

This is where Biden comes into play. Biden and his foreign policy advisers have spoken positively about the Abraham Accords, without commenting on the strings attached. At the same time, they have been very critical of Saudi Arabia’s human rights record. If the Trump administration doesn’t find a way to quickly make it worth Riyadh’s while in the next few weeks, which seems unlikely, MBS and King Salman will probably wait to see what benefit they can exact from the Biden administration to go with peace with Israel. After all, the thought is, why shouldn’t they get something out of the deal, as the UAE, Sudan and Morocco did?

At the same time, a very senior official told The Jerusalem Post that Riyadh is expected to get on board in 2021. Netanyahu and MBS met in the Saudi city of Neom weeks ago. Salman is still reticent on the matter, holding on to the Arab Peace Initiative, also known as the Saudi Initiative, which requires peace with the Palestinians before normalization with the Arab League.

Looking ahead at the unfolding new year, it seems likely that the Abraham Accords domino rally will continue, and it seems almost inevitable that it will feature the biggest coup of all, Saudi-Israel peace. But if there’s anything we learned from 2020, it is that January can be drastically different from December in ways we never expected. READ MORE

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: As America Turns 250, Zohran Mamdani And The Democratic Socialists Of America Ironically Take Control Of New York City

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Zohran Mamdani As The Socialist Kingmaker Is Turning New York Into A Political Machine As The Democratic Party’s Left Wing Gains Real Power

You talk about irony, man, this is one for the record books. As America is already knee-deep in celebrations of our 250th year of our founding as a Constitutional Republic, the recently-elected Socialist mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani has launched a coup. House Democrats were left stunned on Tuesday night after two of their colleagues — including the chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus — lost primaries to left-wing, Mamdani-backed Socialist challengers. Like it or not, we’ve now come face to face with National Democratic Socialism under the leadership of a fiery, Jew-hating, charismatic leader. Hmm, what does that remind you of? Achtung!, America, the wolf is at the door, and he’s hungry.

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Ecclesiasties 1:9 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Trump’s declaration that “America the Beautiful will NEVER be a Communist Country!!!” may sound like a bold defense of the Republic, but it collapses under the weight of his own actions. You cannot publicly warn America about communism while publically lending credibility to the most prominent Socialist mayor in the country. That is not conviction, that is contradiction. Mamdani does not need Trump to endorse his ideology; he only needs Trump to normalize his presence, elevate his status, and treat him as a legitimate governing partner. And Trump has done exactly that. Once that happened, the Socialist left has already gained something far more valuable than applause: respectability. This is how radical movements advance in America. They do not usually arrive wearing the uniform of revolution; they arrive through elections, headlines, photo-ops, federal meetings, political compromise, and carefully managed public relations. A man can be denounced as dangerous on Monday and then treated as a respectable stakeholder on Tuesday, and suddenly the line between opposition and accommodation disappears. Trump may think he is controlling the narrative by calling Mamdani a communist, but the more he centers him, meets with him, and speaks of him as someone he can work with, the more Mamdani becomes a national figure instead of merely a New York City Democratic Socialist. The real danger is not only Zohran Mamdani’s socialism, but the broader collapse of moral clarity in the American political class. At 250 years old, America is not being threatened merely because radicals are running for office; she is being threatened because too many leaders who claim to oppose radicalism are helping make it respectable. Today we visit the Democratic Socialist Revolution underway in America, and show you just what that might mean for our immediate, short-term future.

Warning: The Passion Translation Is Not A Bible, But A Charismatic Paraphrase That Adds To Scripture And Promotes New Apostolic Reformation Doctrine

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Passion Translation Is Not A Bible, But A Charismatic Paraphrase That Adds To The Words Of God And Promotes New Apostolic Reformation Doctrine

The Passion Translation controversy is not merely an argument over Bible version preference, translation style, or whether modern English sounds more “readable” than old English. It is a much deeper issue than that. At its heart, The Passion Translation represents the ongoing attempt by modern charismatic Christianity to replace the fixed words of God with emotional experience, mystical interpretation, and so-called “apostolic” revelation. That is why Bible believers are sounding the alarm, and rightly so.

“Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Proverbs 30:6 (KJB)

The Passion Translation is marketed as a Bible, promoted like a Bible, quoted like a Bible, preached from like a Bible, and used devotionally by millions as though it were Scripture. But when examined honestly, it reads far more like a charismatic paraphrase than a faithful translation of the words of God. It does not simply tell the reader what the verse says. It repeatedly tells the reader what Brian Simmons and the Passion Translation team think the verse should feel like. That is a major difference.

The King James Bible says:

“Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.” Proverbs 30:5 (KJB)

“Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Proverbs 30:6 (KJB)

God’s words are pure, full stop. Man is not invited to improve them, intensify them, romanticize them, update them with charismatic catchphrases, or insert “heart language” that the Holy Ghost did not place there. A Bible translation should be judged by its faithfulness to the text, not by how emotionally moving it sounds. The Passion Translation reverses that order. It often prizes tone, atmosphere, feeling, and devotional impact over textual accuracy. That may appeal to the modern worship culture at Hillsong and Bethel, but it is deadly to Bible doctrine.

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.” 2 Timothy 4:2 (KJB)

This is where the New Apostolic Reformation connection becomes impossible to ignore. NAR-style Christianity thrives on modern apostles, prophets, impartations, signs, wonders, fresh revelation, destiny language, kingdom-now expectation, and emotional encounter with God. The Passion Translation fits that ecosystem perfectly. It gives that movement a Bible-sounding text already flavored with its own vocabulary and assumptions. It is spiritually deadly if you value Bible truth. When a charismatic preacher stands up and says “the Bible says,” but then reads from a paraphrase that has already inserted charismatic interpretation into the verse, the listener is no longer hearing the words of God. He is hearing doctrine smuggled into the form of Scripture. That is not Bible translation, that’s doctrinal manipulation.

The King James Bible says:

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJB)

The Passion Translation does not train people to study, it trains them to feel. It gives them an instant devotional high, a warm spiritualized impression, and a mystical experience of the verse — but too often at the expense of the actual words on the page. That matters because doctrine is built on words. Paul did not say vaguely inspiring things by accident. The Holy Ghost gave precise words, precise grammar, precise doctrine, precise distinctions. That is especially important for Church Age truth. Romans, Galatians, Ephesians, Colossians, and the rest of Paul’s epistles cannot be safely handled by a paraphrase that rewrites doctrine into emotional experience.

A new believer reading The Passion Translation may come away thinking the Christian life is mainly about supernatural encounter, prophetic destiny, impartation, emotional intimacy, and mystical union language. But a Bible believer reading the King James Bible learns sound doctrine, rightly divided truth, the finished work of Christ, the difference between Israel and the Church, law and grace, prophecy and mystery, and the believer’s standing in Christ. That is the difference between spiritual emotion and spiritual truth.

The Passion Translation’s defenders often say, “It helps people love the Bible.” But that is the wrong defense. A paraphrase that changes the words of Scripture is not justified because people enjoy reading it. Golden calves are always popular. The question is not whether people like it. The question is whether it is faithful to the preserved words of God, and it is not.

The Bible says:

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” John 17:17 (KJB)

Truth sanctifies. Not mood. Not atmosphere. Not spiritualized paraphrase. Not the passion of a translator. The words of God are the issue.

The Passion Translation is especially troubling because it comes at a time when much of professing Christianity is already moving away from doctrinal preaching and toward emotionally charged worship experiences, prophetic impressions, dreams, visions, and spiritual entertainment. In that environment, TPT does not correct the error. It feeds it. It gives the modern church exactly what it already wants: a Bible that sounds like Hillsong, Bethel, and the NAR prayer room. That is not a compliment.

A Bible believer does not need a Bible that sounds like the worship industry. A Bible believer needs the Book that reproves, corrects, instructs, divides truth from error, exposes false doctrine, and magnifies the Lord Jesus Christ according to the Scriptures.

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJB)

Notice the first thing Scripture is profitable for: doctrine. Not emotional atmosphere. Not spiritual goosebumps. Not a “fresh word.” Doctrine.

The Passion Translation weakens that because it blurs the boundary between what God said and what man wants the reader to feel. Once that boundary is gone, anything can be made to sound biblical. NAR impartation theology can sound biblical. Modern apostolic authority can sound biblical. Dominionist kingdom language can sound biblical. Mystical union language can sound biblical. And why? Because the paraphrase has already done the theological work before the reader ever opens the page. That is why the warning is necessary.

The issue is not that Brian Simmons is passionate. The issue is not that people find the wording beautiful. The issue is not that it has helped someone in a difficult season. The issue is whether Christians have the right to call something “the Bible” when it repeatedly expands, interprets, and reshapes the inspired text. They absolutely do not.

The King James Bible believer is not being narrow-minded here. He is being obedient. God did not tell us to preserve the feeling of His words. He gave us His words, and His promise to preserve them forever. There is no promise to preserve a ‘message’.

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” Psalm 119:89 (KJB)

The Passion Translation is unsettled by design. It is interpretive, expansive, experiential, and movement-friendly. It is the kind of Bible product that could only thrive in a generation already trained to value experience over exposition, the Laodicean Church Age. That is why it must be duly marked and avoided. The faithful pastor, teacher, parent, and Bible believer should warn others plainly – The Passion Translation is not a trustworthy Bible translation. It is a charismatic paraphrase that repeatedly adds to the text, changes the tone of doctrine, and aligns naturally with New Apostolic Reformation thinking. Use it as Scripture, and you will eventually absorb its theology. Stick with the Book.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Trump Platformed Fauci, Biden Pardoned Him, And The American People Remain Waiting For Answers That May Never Come

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Anthony Fauci Is The Perfect COVID Villain For Donald Trump Because He Absorbs Public Fury While The Biden Pardon Keeps Prosecution Out Of Reach

Everyone is talking right now about the explosive closing shot that Tulsi Gabbard was instructed to level against Anthony Fauci as she was being forced out of office. Bringing Anthony Fauci to justice is quite tantalizing indeed, I’m all for it. But wait a second. If Fauci is the perfect villain, Operation Warp Speed is the evidence that the villain didn’t act alone. The Deep State pushed it, Big Pharma profited, social media censored it, and Biden may have mandated. But, but, but… Trump rushed it, promoted it, and claimed credit for it as the ‘Father of the Vaccine’. You cannot take down Fauci without implicating the people who made his reign of terror possible, people like Donald John Trump.

“A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.” Proverbs 19:5 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Donald Trump did not merely allow the vaccine program to happen. He championed it. He branded Operation Warp Speed as one of the greatest achievements of his presidency. He wanted credit for compressing years of vaccine development into months. He even allowed himself to be called, and reportedly called himself, the “father of the vaccine.” That phrase may haunt him more than anything else in the COVID record. Because if the mRNA rollout is now part of the reckoning — and it must be — then Trump is not standing outside the scandal pointing in, he is standing inside the room. Fauci may be the face of the lockdowns and the public-health arrogance, but Trump is the man who took ownership of the rushed and quite deadly vaccine program that became the foundation for the mandates, the pressure campaigns, the censorship of injured people, and the destruction of trust in American medicine. Trump can rage against Fauci. He can release documents. He can blame Biden’s pardon. He can even say the Deep State protected the guilty. But he cannot easily explain away the fact that he still wants applause for Operation Warp Speed. He wants to condemn the COVID regime while preserving his trophy from that same regime. That, dear Christian, is a politically fatal contradiction. Today we bring you Tulsi Gabbard’s last message in its entirety, and revisit the dark time in world history that will be forever known as The Plannedemic.

  • “Jesus. I am now 64 years old and never in all the years I’ve been a Christian was I able to grow in the Lord as much as I have in the last past year. All because of our blessed brother’s work Geoffrey Grider who as the bravery of standing fast forward without fear of claiming the truth of God by the power of his love in Jesus Christ. May God bless you abundantly to the end my dear brother… ROMANS: 8: 36,37,38” Mireille Anderson
  • “I met you at the car dealership earlier this year. We spoke briefly, then you handed me a card and told me to check out the website. You left. A few minutes later, you returned to tell me not to forget to look up the website. I told you…” I already did. I already subscribed.” In that short time we spoke, I experienced from you…a total stranger…peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, compassion, and love. I am convinced that God sent you to share the Good News that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. For that, and for the work you are doing for the Kingdom of God, I say…Thank you and God Bless You.” Sonia Merced

  • “You and your organization are on the front lines in the Battle For Truth…. current events, end times, and trying to awaken a sleeping Laodicean Church. Thank you brother for fighting for us and all your teaching and insight God bless…” Daniel Cartrette
  • I just want to thank you for the teachings you give every Sunday night on radio.  You are such a blessing to me. I absolutely love your way of teaching the scriptures.  I don’t have a church where I can have fellowship and teaching, so you have been my teacher for many months now. Thanks God you are there for all of us who have no church to go to.  I pray that the Lord will bless you abundantly in your ministry, and your loved ones too.  You are such a blessing to me, and many others, in these last days before the rapture.  Thank you so much Geoffrey, from the bottom of my heart. May the Lord keep you, until He comes back for us. You are in my prayers.” Donald Godin
  • “Thank you for the work  you are doing brother.  Your page and your testimony were a blessing to me this morning as I came across it for the first time.  Thank you for the reality of your testimony and what God has done for you in introducing you to Jesus our Lord.  God has brought me, in salvation, to Himself as well, through His love and mercy and grace in salvation.  How can we praise Him enough?  How can we not share this good news!?  I pray this day for God’s blessing on your ministry that He may save many souls through the work He has called you to.  Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)” Mark and Melissa
  • “Love the Sunday night bible study. I want to support someone who has the passion for the lost like Geoffrey does and rightly divides the word of God. God bless you.” Teresa Carey
  • “I give because not many news outlets are brave enough or Godly enough to tell these stories from a Christian’s point of view. I see stories here that will not be seen anywhere else.” William Grayshaw
  • “It’s hard to find solid biblical teaching in America these days. It’s a blessing to be able to take part in a ministry financially without being concerned about false teaching. All glory to God! God bless!” Maximilian Swan
