Curse or Coincidence?
July 1, 2008
Does it matter how nations deal with the tiny nation of Israel? What does Genesis 12:2-3 mean, and is it valid for today?
Genesis 12:2-3 (New International Version).
2 "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."

From Exile to Restoration.
“From Exile to Restoration” tells the same story as its sister film “The Destiny of Britain” but with a greater emphasis on the history and geopolitics that led to the Balfour Declaration of 1917. This documentary is suitable for a more general audience.


“From Exile to Restoration” tells the same story as its sister film “The Destiny of Britain” but with a greater emphasis on the history and geopolitics that led to the Balfour Declaration of 1917. This documentary is suitable for a more general audience.
From the time of the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE when the Roman Empire exiled the Jewish people, they longed for a future restoration to the land of Israel. The 16th century Protestant Reformation saw Christians reading of the Bible promises of a latter day restoration of the Jewish people to their ancient homeland. This awareness not only spread widely through the Church, but among political leadership in Britain, at the same time as her Empire was expanding in the East. The 19th century saw Britain, concerned for her links to India, Australia and New Zealand, being drawn into the affairs of the eastern Mediterranean and the land of Israel, coinciding with an awakening among the Jewish people for a restoration to their ancient homeland.
The First World War, beginning with the Gallipoli campaign and political concern for the future of the Ottoman Empire, presented an opportunity for the restoration of Israel. On 31st October 1917, the same day as the British-ANZAC victory at Beersheba – including the charge of the Australian Light Horse – came the British War Cabinet’s decision to favour the establishment of a Jewish National Home in Palestine. General Allenby’s subsequent entrance into Jerusalem was the fulfilment of some three hundred years of geo-political activity and British Christian vision.
In From Exile to Restoration, Australian author Kelvin Crombie, together with Israeli academics, the grandson of a hero of the Beersheba ‘Charge’, and British and American churchmen, presents the story of these Jewish, Christian and geo-political factors which intertwined to lead to the modern restoration of Israel. As Cyrus, the King of the ancient Persian Empire first restored Israel after the exile to Babylon, so the British Empire became the modern day ‘Cyrus’ to restore Israel after the second exile across the world.
From Exile to Restoration is the sister film to The Destiny of Britain and prequel to The Forsaken Promise. Running time 1 hour 14 minutes.

Jerusalem, The Covenant City

Jerusalem, the Covenant City explores the past, present and future destiny of Jerusalem in the light of recorded history, the prophetic Scriptures and current events.
This is the word of the Lord concerning Israel. "I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling." (Zechariah 12:1,2)
Jerusalem is the only city in the world to have its history written in advance. It is the only city in the world that the Creator of the Universe has declared to be His dwelling place forever. And it is the only city in the world with an eternal destiny. Today the world is obsessed with the status of Jerusalem, just as Zechariah prophesied it would be. This is one of many signs that the end of the age and that the return of the Messiah - the Alpha and the Omega - is at hand. Through His ancient prophets and the current mounting conflict in the Middle East - particularly over Jerusalem - the God of Israel is speaking to the Jewish people, to the nations of the world, and to the Church. But who is listening?
The feature-length documentary Jerusalem, the Covenant City, presented by Lance Lambert and written, produced and directed by Hugh Kitson, will impact its audience with a message of challenge and hope that they will not easily forget. A 335-page book, with a wealth of additional background information, complements the documentary film.
The film is divided into two parts for viewer convenience. Part 1 contains a broad sweep of Jerusalem's history, while Part 2 examines the present and future destiny of the Holy City. Each DVD and VHS cassette contains both parts.


The Destiny of Britain
The Destiny of Britain reveals how the Biblical vision for the restoration of Israel was an integral part of the great missionary expansion of the 18th and 19th centuries which was intertwined with the expansion of the British Empire across the world.
The Balfour Declaration of 1917 and the beginning of British rule over the historic Land of Israel was the culmination of a vision for the restoration of the Jewish people to their Biblical homeland which had developed in the Church in Great Britain over the previous three hundred years. This vision, supported by the great Christian Revivalists and Bible Teachers such as the Wesley brothers, Charles Simeon, Robert Murray McCheyne, C H Spurgeon and Bishop J C Ryle, was based on the Covenants of Promise as well as other prophetic Scriptures found in the Bible. Many Christians were inspired to pray for the fulfilment of this vision and prominent leaders in England and Scotland, including William Wilberforce, Lord Palmerston and Lord Shaftesbury, encouraged the British government to actively support the restoration of Israel.
In THE DESTINY OF BRITAIN, Australian author Kelvin Crombie, together with Israeli academics and British churchmen, presents the story of how this outworking of Britain's Christian heritage was intertwined with her geo-political objective in the Middle East of maintaining access to her Eastern Empire. Just as Cyrus, the King of the ancient Persian Empire, was the Divinely appointed facilitator for the return of the Jewish people to Jerusalem after the first exile, the British Empire was entrusted by the God of History after the second exile to restore His ancient covenant people to the Land that He had promised to them as an everlasting inheritance.
Documentary running time:
Part 1: 52 minutes

In November 1917 the British government made a pledge with the Jewish people through the Balfour Declaration to help establish a Jewish National Home in the territory known as Palestine. Find out what happened next ...
"For the day of the Lord is near on all the nations; as you have done, it shall be done to you. Your reward shall return upon your head." (Obadiah 1:15)
In November 1917 the British government made a pledge with the Jewish people through the Balfour Declaration to help establish a Jewish National Home in the territory known as Palestine. During the 200 years leading up to the Balfour Declaration there was a broad vision in the Church in Great Britain for the restoration of the Jewish people to their ancient homeland. This vision, supported by the great revivalists such as George Whitefield and the Wesley brothers, was based on the Covenants of Promise as well as other prophetic Scriptures found in the Bible, and many Christians were inspired to pray into it. The Balfour Declaration was the fruit of this vision. At that time, Great Britain was the nearest example of a truly Christian nation that has existed since the time of Christ two thousand years ago, and her empire - the largest ever in human history - stretched across one third of the world's land mass. It was said that the sun never set on the British Empire.
Sadly, because of political expedience in appeasing a militant Arab nationalist movement, duplicity in her dealings with both Arabs and Jews, and even treachery towards the Jewish people, Britain became instead the major obstacle in the fulfilment of the purposes of God. In addition to causing the wholesale misery of many thousands of Jewish people who were turned away from the shores of Palestine in the 1930s and 40s, the British reneging of the Balfour Declaration was also responsible for the deaths of an untold number of Jews who could have escaped Hitler's Final Solution, had they been able to find refuge in their ancient homeland. Even after the War was over Britain continued to turn away traumatised survivors of the Holocaust from the shores of the Land of their forefathers. Today, very few British people - Christians included - know anything about this dark chapter in our history. Is it mere co-incidence that since the end of the Mandate in Palestine in 1948 that the sun finally set on the Great British Empire and her status as the world's superpower disappeared?
The Forsaken Promise, a 3-part documentary series, highlights a number of tragic events that took place during the Mandate period, mainly through the testimonies of those who were either victims of those events, participants in them, or eye-witnesses to them, including the Late Derek Prince. Its purpose is to stir up repentance in Britain for the nation's reneging of the Balfour Declaration - the forsaken promise - and obstructing the purposes of God in the restoration of Israel. There are many church leaders in Britain who are crying out for the restoration of God's favour and blessing upon this country, and there are some who believe that the Lord has not forgotten our spiritual heritage as a Christian nation. Because the Church's calling is to be the 'prophetic voice' in the nation, this documentary's prime target audience is the Church.
The documentary film The Forsaken Promise, is written, produced and directed by Hugh Kitson

Like I have said previously, I firmly believe we are in 'THE END TIMES'. Whether it has been happening for years or has years to work itself through, we are in them. Have a look at all the disasters that are happening world wide, and more severe with many more people dying.
I don't believe 100% in this global warming thing, I have thoughts that agree with some scientists that we are on a cycle of being in the early stages of another ice age of sorts. Or we could always say something like.... man can not go on digging up the earth and taking from the earth without suffering somewhere along the way. The tectonic plates can not stay stable while man is constantly playing around underground. Ah the theories abound! Another way-out-there thought of mine is that the islamists know they can no longer keep surviving in their own desolate lands and have their sites set on all the infrastructures the West has built. Oh yeah they hate us but they want to live in our countries and wipe us out bit by bit. What is it that Robert Spencer says.... jihad by stealth.

Man's greediness will certainly be the downfall.... gee is this history repeating itself I wonder???

For anyone wondering if I may be some sort of fundamental Christian. OR NUTTER ..fear not!! I am just a normal person and I do not belong to any particular denomination.

Oh and thanks to Christopher Logan for 'THE SHOUT' in Islam in Action.


BEAUSEANT!!!!
