The very same “Temple Mount Jews” who are seeking to renew animal sacrifice on the Temple Mount (download my previous study on this issue, here) are now calling Trump’s victory “divinely inspired” and the “beginning of the messianic process.”
The Temple Mount Jews are even quoting from Isaiah, in relation to Trump’s election victory, saying his election is in God-given fulfillment of Isaiah 55:4, “Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.”
That’s called flattery, folks. Of course, they’re essentially calling Trump the “messiah,” though they’re quick to qualify this blasphemy by claiming he’s merely initiating the process that will lead to the messiah.
Yet some rabbis are even going so far as to claim that the gematria (religious numerology) of Trump’s name is the same as that of the word “Moshiach” (i.e., the messiah). As the first news article above states:
“As Rabbi Berger pointed out, the gematria for Donald Trump in Hebrew (דונלד טראמפ) is 424, which is equal to the gematria of “Messiah for the House of David” (משיח בן דוד).
“The Ben Ish Chai, an authority on Jewish law and master kabbalist who lived in Baghdad 150 years ago, interpreted the number 212 as a difficult time for Israel before the Final Redemption.
“Trump’s gematria is twice that, signifying an ongoing Messiah process.”
Of course, this is Kabbalistic gematria (mystical numerology), and not Biblical in the least. The Kabbalah is the Kenite book of mysticism and occult “magick” studied by the rabbis, along with the Talmud, in place of the Bible.
Keep in mind that these same rabbis are also claiming that America is the “spiritual descendant of the Biblical nation of Edom.” In other words, they’re claiming Israel and America are spiritually united with each other, just as Jacob and Esau were physically united as brothers of the same seed line. So you can see that the false Jews are immersed in the false spirit of man’s empty religious traditions that Jesus Christ Himself warned us makes God’s Word void.
The Temple Mount Jews also stated “Hashem [which in Hebrew means “the name,” a euphemism for God] is moving us towards a greater Jerusalem, and anyone who goes against that, is destined to fail.”
So the Jews see “greater Jerusalem” coming, thanks to Trump, which essentially means they believe they’ll soon be re-taking the Temple Mount and all of the land that historically constituted Jerusalem in Old Testament Biblical times.
And the Moslems clearly sense this coming, which is why hard-core Moslem leaders like Turkey’s president Ergogan are urging Moslems throughout the middle east to begin making massive pilgrimages to the al Aqsa Mosque at Jerusalem, for its “protection.” As the third article above states:
“Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has called on Muslims around the world to visit Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem to protect the site’s Islamic identity…
‘We, as Muslims, should be visiting Al-Quds more often,’ Erdogan said, using the Arabic name for Jerusalem. ‘Each day that Jerusalem is under occupation is an insult to us.’
[He] emphasised ‘…hundreds of thousands’ [of Moslems] should be visiting the site, which is considered holy by Muslims. “[It] would be the greatest support to our brothers there,” he said.”
So we have the Temple Mount Jews claiming Trump’s election victory is “divinely inspired” and constitutes the beginning of “the messianic process.”
And recently we’ve seen Vice-President Pence confirming that Trump still plans to move the U.S. Embassy in Tel-Aviv to Jerusalem (essentially snubbing and insulting the Moslem world and signaling new U.S. policy on who greater Jerusalem belongs to).
And finally we have one of the leaders of the largest Moslem nations calling on Moslems to start visiting the al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem in great numbers, in order to “protect its Moslem identity” and bolster Moslem claims to Jerusalem.
What could possibly go wrong?
Keep your eyes focused on Jerusalem, folks. I’ve repeatedly stated that the North Korea issue, while interesting and potentially serious, is a distraction compared to what’s going on in the Middle East. Don’t be distracted from what’s really important.
The Deadly Wound
Sooner or later the deadly wound will take place in Jerusalem. And it will likely take place at the site of that Muslim mosque – the al Aqsa Mosque — that sits upon the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. (See the Bible study “The Four Winds and the Deadly Wound” for more information.)
And when that deadly wound takes place, the Muslim armies of the nations surrounding Israel will rush to the defense of their so-called holy mosque. And then Christ’s own words will finally come to pass:
Luke 21:20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
Luk 21:21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
Luk 21:22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
It’s interesting that Trump is still “strongly considering” moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel-Aviv to Jerusalem – an event that, should it happen, will put a contingent of U.S. Marines in the Holy City.
Vice-President Pence stated only last week that Trump is serious about the move. And in response to Pence’s statement, the Politico.com website rightly pointed out:
“Some experts have warned that relocating the embassy could inflame tensions in the Middle East and doom the peace negotiations between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
‘It would essentially validate the view that all of Jerusalem now belongs to Israel,’ Aaron David Miller, a former Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiator, told POLITICO late last year.
‘It’s hard to come up with a single act that would make the Middle East burn more than it is burning right now,’ he added.”
And indeed, that’s true. Religious fervor is already being whipped up over the Moslem mosque site. So if Trump’s election indeed represents “the beginning of the Messianic process” then we’re soon in for quite a ride folks. Keep your eyes open…
