By Aaron Klein (WND) JERUSALEM – A Jewish Temple organization has slammed as “a hubris-inspired act of self-aggrandizement” controversial plans by a Pentecostal church to reportedly build a $200 million replica of the First Temple in Sao Paulo, Brazil. “This planned church is a mockery which stands in diametric opposition to everything that [...] [ Know them by their fruits... When was the last time a Jewish or Christian sect disfigured a woman's face in the name of their religion? When was the last time members of a church performed female "circumcision" on virgin girls, or decapitated others in the name of their faith, for that matter? [...] [ I hope you detect my heavy sarcasm in the title of this post. This is a prime example of the sort of murderous frenzy that cultic thinking engenders among its adherents... ] ========== Muslim extremists chop off Catholic’s hand Suspected Islamic militants have chopped off a Catholic professor’s hand in Kerala for [...] [ Lag B'Omer is a holiday that celebrates Kabbalah (or Jewish mysticism). The mecca made to Meron demonstrates just how popular Kabbalah is in Israel these days... ] ============= Half a million observant Israelis made their way to Mount Meron on Saturday night as the Sabbath gave way to Lag Baomer, the Jewish holiday [...] By Jerome R. Corsi Scientists examining the Shroud of Turin since the restoration that began in 2000 have found a “second face” on its reverse “hidden side,” a discovery they believe adds evidence to the argument it is not a medieval painting or photographic rendering. As part of the restoration undertaken in the summer [...] [ I don't endorse the mixing of Christianity with the ugliness of American geopolitics, but the fact of the matter is that many Islamic political groups justify deception for the sake of the advancement of the "house of Islam" (i.e., 'taqiyya' ). Adherents to such ideology characteristically attack others, such as devout Christians, as [...] (IsraelNN.com) A record number of people, a vast majority of them Jews, visited the Kotel (Western Wall) plaza over the Pesach (Passover) holiday. According to the Kotel Heritage Fund and the Israel Police, more than 600,000 people from all Jewish streams – secular and religious, young and old – visited the ancient remnant of [...] I was not altogether surprised to learn that John Piper (of Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis) recently invited none other than the mega-star of pop-Christianity, namely Rick Warren, to be a keynote speaker the Desiring God National Conference to be held in October 2010. You can read of Mr. Piper’s decision to include Warren [...] Slaves didn’t build pyramids By KATARINA KRATOVAC CAIRO — Egypt displayed on Monday newly discovered tombs more than 4,000 years old and said they belonged to people who worked on the Great Pyramids of Giza, presenting the discovery as more evidence that slaves did not build the ancient monuments. The series of modest nine-foot-deep [...] Preface: I regularly attended Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis for over eight years. The senior pastor there, Dr. John Piper, is a gifted and eloquent speaker, but I often detected a not-so-subtle theological bias in his teaching that suggested that God had no abiding interest in the State of Israel or in the [...] Who Is a Jew? Court Ruling in Britain Raises Question By SARAH LYALL The New York Times LONDON – The questions before the judges in Courtroom No. 1 of Britain’s Supreme Court were as ancient and as complex as Judaism itself. Who is a Jew? And who gets to decide? On the surface, the [...] [ The late Dr. Flusser is sort of an evangelist for a "liberal" idea of Jesus -- not unlike what the German Higher Critical Schools attempted to do last century... What makes this disturbing, however, is that many in Israel appear to be listening to his "reconstructed" views of Jesus... ] ====== He’s one [...] [ If you didn't know any better, you'd think the "Bible" dates back to the 4th century AD at the earliest based on the recent Independent-UK propaganda piece quoted below.... One word our British friends will recognize: Balderdash. It is a mistake to say Codex Sinaiticus is the first "Bible," since there are numerous [...] US President Barack Obama on Tuesday praised American Muslims for enriching the nation’s culture at a dinner to celebrate the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. “The contribution of Muslims to the United States are too long to catalog because Muslims are so interwoven into the fabric of our communities and our country,” Obama said [...] [ How cool is this? A model of the Second Temple -- the one Yeshua walked in -- located just across from the site of the original Temple! ] =========== (IsraelNN.com) The world’s largest model of the Holy Temple was inaugurated Wednesday only a few hundred meters away from the Temple Mount, the site where [...] A new Jewish interfaith initiative launched last week argues building the Third Jewish Temple in Jerusalem would not necessitate the destruction of the Dome of the Rock. “God’s Holy Mountain Vision” project hopes to defuse religious strife by showing that Jews’ end-of-days vision could harmoniously accommodate Islam’s present architectural hegemony on the Temple Mount. [...] There is no excerpt because this is a protected post. =========== Piper’s Perpetual Plummet! by The Desert Pastor I recognize some of our readers are not going to be pleased with this post, but we believe it is necessary to point out error when it occurs. Too many within evangelicalism hold some men in high regard to the point that they will accept all [...] [ How trendy... Sounds like Kabbalah has reached the ears of the apostate Episcopalian denomination. I hope "Bishop" Katherine takes some time to read the words of Yeshua about this matter some time, instead of listening to "red string" donning mystics... ] =========== Episcopal Bishop calls individual salvation called heresy, idolatry Episcopal Presiding Bishop [...] There is no excerpt because this is a protected post. There is no excerpt because this is a protected post. [ It strains all measure of credulity to think that some people would feign conversion to Judaism to become "missionaries." Most likely these "converts" are simply confused souls. After all, who would attempt to lead people to Mashiach, the God of all Truth, in a deceptive manner? If they did, they are obviously not [...] [ It should be noted that the The Codex Sinaiticus is the oldest extant codex -- i.e., book form, of the Bible (dating from the 4th century AD). There are numerous mss, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, fragments from the Gospels, etc., that date back to the 1st and 2nd centuries AD. ] =========== [...] There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

Dr Dena Coleman and husband Gordon [...] [ Of course Mr. Obama, who sat under "Rev." Wright's teaching for 20 years, was impervious to such anti-Jewish bigotry, right? Just look at his speech in Cairo, after all! -- sarcasm ] ========== A leading Christian Zionist says if President Obama wants to be consistent in his condemnation of anti-Semitism, he should speak [...] Why does the following remind me of Horton Hears a Who? Is pastor Biltz making the assumption that Yeshua is “hard of hearing” or perhaps is off doing something more interesting, like bowling with the angels or something… At any rate, there is no need to engage in such a foolish exercise. No one can force [...] Tony Blair has said he wants to spend the rest of his life bringing the religions of the world together.
