FINAL STATUS TALKS WILL BE TROUBLE

When the Roadmap to peace gets to the 3RD STAGE it will be the trouble spot of the WORLD.
And I mean trouble. I believe all nations will be involved at this stage, and if Russia and the Muslims do not march to Israel during the tribulation (WHICH I BELIEVE THEY WILL), this will be the other time for the beggining of WW3. Look under archives for QUESTIONS=WW3 for my take on who will be involved.

What does the Bible say about this 3rD stage of the ROADMAP TO PEACE.

First we look at Jeremiah 30:2 This is what Adonai the God of Israel says: Write all the words I have spoken to you in a scroll. 3-For the day is coming, says Adonai, when I will reverse the exile of my people Israel and Judah, says Adonai. I will cause them to return to the land I gave their ancestors, and they will take possession of it.

Ok so now G-D has fulfilled this prophesy, Israel has their own land as of May 14,1948. What will happen after this? Well in Jeremiah 30:4 we see trouble come for Israel, lets investigate.

These are the words Adonnai spoke concerning Israel and Judah. 5-Here is what Adonai says: We have heard a cry of terror, of fear and not of peace. 6-Ask now and see: can men give birth to children? Why, then, do I see all the men with their hands on their stomachs like women in labor, with every face turned pale? 7-How dreadful that day will be! there has never been one like it: a time of trouble for jacob (ISRAEL), but out of it he will be saved.

So after Israel is in their Land, trouble comes, but why ? Because of this 3RD stage of the peace process as we go to Zechariah to see why.

12:1 A prophesy, the word of Adonai concerning Israel - here is the message from Adonai, who stretched out the heavens, laid the foundation of the earth and formed the spirit inside human beings: 2- I will make Jerusalem a cup that will stagger the surrounding peoples. (A CUP OF TREMBLING). Even Judah will be caught up in the siege against Jerusalem. 3- when that day comes, I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who try to lift it will hurt themselves, and all the earths nations will be massed against her.

So we see it will be a time of great trouble, when the final status talks begin as all the world gets involved.

PHASE III:
PERMANENT STATUS AGREEMENT
AND END OF THE ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN CONFLICT
2004 – 2005

Progress into Phase III, based on consensus judgment of Quartet, and taking into account actions of both parties and Quartet monitoring. Phase III objectives are consolidation of reform and stabilization of Palestinian institutions, sustained, effective Palestinian security performance, and Israeli-Palestinian negotiations aimed at a permanent status agreement in 2005.

• SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE:
Convened by Quartet, in consultation with the parties, at beginning of 2004 to endorse agreement reached on an independent Palestinian state with provisional borders and formally to launch a process with the active, sustained, and operational support of the Quartet, leading to a final, permanent status resolution in 2005, including on borders, Jerusalem, refugees, settlements; and, to support progress toward a comprehensive Middle East settlement between Israel and Lebanon and Israel and Syria, to be achieved as soon as possible.

• Continued comprehensive, effective progress on the reform agenda laid out by the Task
Force in preparation for final status agreement.

• Continued sustained and effective security performance, and sustained, effective security cooperation on the bases laid out in Phase I.

• International efforts to facilitate reform and stabilize Palestinian institutions and the Palestinian economy, in preparation for final status agreement.

• Parties reach final and comprehensive permanent status agreement that ends the Israel-
Palestinian conflict in 2005, through a settlement negotiated between the parties based
on UNSCR 242, 338, and 1397, that ends the occupation that began in 1967, and includes an agreed, just, fair, and realistic solution to the refugee issue, and a negotiated resolution on the status of Jerusalem that takes into account the political and religious concerns of both sides, and protects the religious interests of Jews, Christians, and Muslims worldwide, and fulfills the vision of two states, Israel and sovereign, independent, democratic and viable Palestine, living side-by-side in peace and security.

• Arab state acceptance of full normal relations with Israel and security for all the states
of the region in the context of a comprehensive Arab-Israeli peace.
