Wintry Weather Returns: Nasty Roads, Colder Air
Monday, March 5, 2007 07:57 AM - WBEN Newsroom

Buffalo, NY (WBEN) - If your commute takes you down roads that are susceptible to blowing and drifting snow, you could face some of the worst driving conditions of the season today.Snowfall of a few inches will combine with very strong winds to send snow whipping across roads and piling up in commuter lanes. Plows have been out, and will continue to be out throughout the day, but the strong winds immediately blow the snow back, and will create visibility problems, as well.The National Weather Service has issued a blowing and drifting snow ADVISORY until 7-this evening for the entire Western New York region.We're also in line for some very cold air coming out of Canada later today. That blast of arctic air will produce temperatures in the single digits, and wind chills below zero. The region is also under a wind chill ADVISORY starting at midnight tonight.

REBUILT 3RD TEMPLE

REVELATION 11:1-2
1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

DANIEL 9:27
27 And he( THE ROMAN,EU PRESIDENT) shall confirm the covenant with many for one
week:(1X7=7 YEARS) and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,(3 1/2 yrs in TEMPLE SACRIFICES STOPPED) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

God has always dealt with Israel in 7's, it just makes sense the last dealing with Israel and the World will be a 7 yr treaty. God rested from creation on the 7TH DAY. Every 7TH YEAR Israel is suppose to rest the land. And the 7X7=49 YRS and the jubilee is the 50TH YEAR.

Now the scriptures that a week in Israel history is 7YEARS.

Heres the scripture 1 week = 7 yrs

Genesis 29:27-29
27 Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for the service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.
28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week: and he gave him Rachel his daughter to wife also.
29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid.

Isn"t this interesting it comes from the same Person whos name was changed to Israel,(JACOB) and Israel and Jerusalem is the places dealt with in Daniel 9:24-27.

GENESIS 32:27-28
27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

Renew animal sacrifices on Mount says radical rabbi MAR 05,07

Member of Sanhedrin says sacrifices were not possible when the people of Israel were in the Diaspora, but now they are. Adds: Jerusalem Temple should be rebuilt, Israeli government standing in our way Yaakov Lappin / Israel News

Animal sacrifices should be renewed on the Temple Mount, a member of the radical Sanhedrin organization told Ynetnews. In ancient Israel and Judea, the Sanhedrin served as the highest court in the land, and was made up of 71 top judges. Now, a group of 71 fringe rabbis say they have reformed the group, although the organization has received no recognition from Israel's official religious authorities. In the Torah there are around 200 commandments dealing with animal sacrifices, said Rabbi Dov Stein, of the Sanhedrin organization. The Torah of Israel demands animal sacrifices.

When the people of Israel were in the Diaspora, it couldn’t be done. But now, there is the supreme institution, the Sanhedrin, made up of experts, and it can be done. The new Sanhedrin, like the old, will educate the people of Israel on how to keep and safeguard the Torah.

Democracy was not invented today

Stein vowed that we will try to carry out animal sacrifices on the Temple Mount this Passover, as commanded by the Torah.Asked if his organization sought to rebuild the third Temple, Stein's answer was unequivocal. We want to establish the Temple again. Unfortunately, standing in our way is a hostile regime, the Israeli government, and rabbis who for political interest don't want this to happen.Stein even suggested that Muslims would agree to the project, saying: The Omar Mosque (the Dome of the Rock), built by Khalif Omar, was actually intended to safeguard the site for the Jews. Islam hasn't always been so hostile. Despite its hatred and massacres against us, Islam sees in Judaism a source and a guide. I think the moment will come that Muslims understand the need to build the Temple and go along with us.Stein outlined his plan for Israel, calling for a king to be appointed democratically. Democracy was not invented today, the king is elected from a list of candidates. A senior judge, as was done during the days of the judges, can also be appointed, he added.

However, such practices ended 2000 years ago, Rabbi Doniel Hartman was quoted by the Associated Press as saying. Around that time, animal sacrifice, as a mode of religious worship, stopped for Jews, Christians and Muslims, said the rabbi from the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem, according to AP. Moving back in that direction is not progress, he added. According to mainstream Jewish thought, animal sacrifices must not be carried out outside of Temple, which itself cannot be rebuilt by human endeavor, but will be rebuilt upon the arrival of the messiah.

DANIEL 7:23-24
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast(THE EU,REVIVED ROME) shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth,(7TH WORLD EMPIRE) which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.(TR BLOCKS)
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise:(10 NATIONS) and another shall rise after them;(#11 SPAIN) and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.(BE HEAD OF 3 KINGS OR NATIONS).

Birthday declaration puts Merkel to EU constitution test
05.03.2007 - 09:28 CET | By Mark Beunderman

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - German chancellor Angela Merkel is facing the first real test of her efforts to push a revised EU constitution as she seeks to convince EU leaders this week to include a reference to a new treaty in the EU's 50th anniversary declaration. Ms Merkel is likely to raise the constitutional issue during a dinner with EU counterparts on Thursday evening (8 March) where she will outline her ideas for the so-called Berlin declaration to be signed by EU leaders and institutions on 25 March. The two to three page declaration - which will mark the 50th anniversary of the 1957 Treaty of Rome laying the foundation for the current EU - is set to consist of three main parts, on European history, European values and the current challenges facing the union. But the German EU presidency
also wants to conclude the document with a fourth element, a paragraph which would call upon EU member states to find a solution to the political impasse following the rejection of the EU constitution by French and Dutch voters in 2005.

The question of what we need in terms of institutions in order to go forward with the union is the crucial issue for Berlin here, EU diplomats said. In a consultation round with member states' so-called sherpas - government appointees for confidential talks with Berlin on the EU constitution - it emerged that Ms Merkel wants member states to commit themselves in the anniversary text to deadlines for both the agreement of a re-negotiated constitution text and its ratification. German Europe minister Guenther Gloser said last week a re-negotiated constitution would have to be agreed by the end of 2007 or the beginning of 2008, so there would be a long enough time to ratify by the European elections in 2009.But language on a constitutional timetable is opposed by the UK, Poland and the Netherlands, which seek far-reaching changes to the EU constitution and dislike the idea of a fast-moving constitutional revival process. London, Warsaw, The Hague as well as Paris would also oppose any wording suggesting that the EU constitution should form the basis of a new EU treaty - a philosophy promoted by the 18 member states which already ratified the constitution. I don't think there is an agreement among member states on a sort of bridge at the end of the Berlin declaration to the EU constitution. I rather expect a reference to the coming willingness of the member states to work further towards a treaty settlement, Polish sherpa Marek Cichocki told EUobserver. EU diplomats said however that the divisions over the issue could be fudged by vague language such as that used by EU leaders in conclusions last June, where they said that they would continue the reform process taking the necessary steps to that effect before 2009. A French contact adding that Paris would probably agree to terms like institutional settlement.

Euro, Christian heritage

The constitution is not the only cause of division over the birthday declaration. Thursday's dinner is also expected to cover other outstanding issues surrounding the birthday text – on the euro, the union's social dimension and some values-related issues. Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker said last month that he would like the euro currency to get a mention as one of the great successes of European construction - a proposal disliked by the UK and Sweden which are outside the eurozone.A social-economic discussion over the document has also emerged, with nine member states including France, Italy and Spain recently issuing an open declaration calling for more promotion of social Europe. We thought it might feed into the discussion around the Berlin declaration, said a French official, with free-market states such as the Czech Republic and the UK however likely to resist too much social language. Meanwhile, Poland is pushing for a reference to Europe's Christian heritage - something which Warsaw failed to obtain in the 2004 EU constitution text but for which it now sees a second chance.

Maybe it would be easier to have this accepted in the Berlin declaration which will have no legal status, than in a preamble of a legally binding treaty, Poland's sherpa said. It poses a difficulty for us to have this included in a public political document, a diplomat from secularist France reacted. With member states so far wanting a whole wish-list of issues to be included in the declaration, the text risks becoming too long, some diplomats warned. Once you start with two pages and then everyone starts adding in, you will soon end up with three, said one source. It is likely that the first drafts of the declaration will emerge from Berlin only after Ms Merkel has tested the atmosphere at Thursday's dinner, officials said.

Abbas accuses EU of discriminating against PA, being pro-Israel
By Akiva Eldar, Haaretz Correspondent Mon Mar 05,07

Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas accused the European Union on Sunday of
discriminating against the Palestinians, and of fostering an unjust, pro-Israel approach.He went on to complain to the EU of a series of provocative and illegal Israeli actions.In an unusually harsh letter from Dr. Rafiq Husseini, Abbas' chief of staff, to German Foreign Minister Frank Walter-Steimeier, the Palestinian leadership complained of several instances in which Israel has allegedly violated its prior commitments, including the road map. Husseini noted in his letter to Steimeier - current president of the European Council - the reports of Israel's intention to build a new Jewish neighborhood in East Jerusalem, and the construction of a new Jerusalem District police headquarters beyond the Green line. At a time when the Palestinian people are at the threshold of a historic national consensus... such Israeli actions only serve to derail efforts to support forces of moderation, the letter reads. It also lists the IDF's incursion into Nablus last week, as well as the archaeological excavation near the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

Husseini suggests that despite Israel's violations and its refusal to participate in dialogue with the Palestinians, it enjoys close relations and financial ties with the EU, as opposed to the Palestinian Authority, which is under an international embargo. The letter calls to end this glaring injustice, and to adopt a more balanced approach by the Council of Ministers and the international community.

Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni was expected to visit Brussels in advance of the EU meeting scheduled for Monday, in an attempt to convince the Europeans to adhere to the embargo for as long as the Hamas government refuses to renounce terror and recognize Israel as well as agreements signed with it. Officials in Jerusalem are concerned about possible erosion in the European Union regarding the embargo, as reflected in recent announcements by several European governments of their intention to reevaluate their stance following the Mecca agreement between Hamas and Fatah.

HOARDING OF GOLD AND SILVER

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

Asian stocks tumble as yen surges
March 5, 2007

SINGAPORE (Reuters) Asia's battered stock markets tumbled again on Monday, as a global sell-off that began last week gathered fresh steam, with Japanese shares sliding more than 3 percent as a surging yen hammered exporters such as Toyota.The yen hit three-month highs against the dollar and the euro as investors rushed to close out risky trades and pay off the cheap yen loans that financed them.

Major European markets are expected to open down around 2 percent on Monday, financial bookmakers said. Britain's FTSE 100 is expected to open 1.8 percent lower, while Germany's DAX and France's CAC 40 are expected to open down 2 and 2.2 percent, respectively.

If New York continues to slide and the yen continues to strengthen at this pace, there is no bottom in sight for Japan, said Kirby Daley, a strategist at brokerage Fimat in Tokyo.A near 9 percent slump in China's main stock index last Tuesday, combined with worries about stalling U.S. growth, sparked a wave a selling in world equity markets, many of which had been trading around record highs.

Australian stocks fell 2.3 percent to a seven-week closing low, erasing all their gains for 2007, with the world's largest miner, BHP Billiton, dropping 2.9 percent.Share indexes in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore lost between 3 and 4 percent and South Korea's benchmark fell 2.7 percent.

This is not like September 11, when there was a clear issue, so the sell-off was reasonable, said Lim Chang-gue, a fund manager at Samsung Investment Trust Management in Seoul.Something bad seems to be happening, but there is no one clear reason. It's this unknown that is making it worse so people are just selling out.Fears about the health of the global economy knocked more than 1 percent off oil prices, while Japanese government bond and U.S. Treasuries futures rose to around three-month highs, as investors fled stocks and commodities in search of safer assets.The yen rose across the board, with sterling plunging as much as 2 percent and other major currencies more than 1 percent, as market players unwound bets against the Japanese currency.The so-called carry trade, in which investors fund the purchase of higher-yielding -- and riskier -- assets with borrowing in the low-yielding yen, had driven the yen to a four-year low against the dollar in late January.The situation has changed now, with volatility no longer low to support the carry trades, and the unwinding of long positions in riskier assets spurred by the global stock market plunge is continuing, said a bond dealer at a Japanese trust bank.The dollar tumbled to a three-month low at 115.40 yen, before trimming losses slightly to trade around 115.55 yen by 0550 GMT. The euro bought around 152.25 down 1.2 percent, having fallen as low as 151.75 yen.

Yen worry

Tokyo's Nikkei fell below 17,000 for the first time in nearly two months to end down 3.3 percent, its biggest one-day percentage loss since June last year and its lowest close in 2007.The real worry is the currency, said Masayoshi Okamoto, head of dealing at Jujiya Securities.Toyota has assumed an exchange rate of 115 yen to the dollar for the fourth quarter. While we're already close to that, the thing is that investors were buying Toyota on the assumption the exchange level would be around 120 yen.Toyota, the world's most profitable car maker, fell 3.2 percent. Cameras and copiers maker Canon dropped 2.1 percent and Sony shed 2.9 percent. A stronger yen tends to hurt exporters because it erodes the value of their overseas sales.MSCI's broadest index of Asian shares outside Japan was down 3.7 percent at 0550 GMT.A measure of emerging Asian markets fell 4.1 percent, after diving 5.4 percent last week, and an index of Hong Kong-listed shares in mainland China firms, or H-shares, fell 5.3 percent, led by financials such as China Life

In the Japanese government bond market, lead March futures were up 0.44 point at 135.26, climbing towards a three-month high of 135.44 hit last week. The benchmark 10-year yield fell 4.5 basis points to 1.620 percent.A growing view that recent falls in share prices may not be just a temporary correction is giving the JGB market support, said Masuhisa Kobayashi, chief JGB strategist at Barclays Capital.Investors were cautiously hoping for the equities markets to steady this week but the Asian markets have continued to fall, so that's making people nervous, said Dariusz Kowalczyk, an analyst at Hong-Kong based CFC Seymour Ltd.Gold eased to around $640.80 an ounce, after sliding nearly 3 percent on Friday, when currency investors sold the precious metal to pay for losses in other markets.Reuters.

BIOLOGICAL WAR-FEAR
Syria ready with bio-terror if U.S. hits Iran
Damascus reportedly hiding WMD among commercial pharmaceuticals
Dr Jerome R. Corsi - WorldNetDaily.com - MAR 05,07

An American biodefense analyst living in Europe says if the U.S. invades Iran to halt its nuclear ambitions, Syria is ready to respond with weapons of mass destruction – specifically biological weapons. Syria is positioned to launch a biological attack on Israel or Europe should the U.S. attack Iran, Jill Bellamy-Dekker told WND. The Syrians are embedding their biological weapons program into their commercial pharmaceuticals business and their veterinary vaccine-research facilities. The intelligence service oversees Syria's bio-farm program and the Ministry of Defense is well interfaced into the effort.Bellamy-Decker currently directs the Public Health Preparedness program for the European Homeland Security Association under the French High Committee for Civil Defense. She anticipates a variation of smallpox is the biological agent Syria would utilize.

The Syrians are also working on orthopox viruses that are related to smallpox, Bellamy-Decker said, and it's a good way to get around international treaties against offensive biological weapons development. They work on camelpox as a cover for smallpox.According to the Center for Infectious Disease Research & Policy (CIDRAP) at the University of Minnesota, camelpox is a virus closely related to smallpox, that causes a severe and economically important disease in camels, but rarely, if ever, causes the disease in humans.

Bellamy-Decker also told WND the North Koreans were working closely with the Syrians on their biological weapons program. The Syrians have made some recent acquisitions in regard to their smallpox program from the DPRK, she explained. Right before the recent Lebanon war, the Syrians had a crash program in cryptosporidium.According to the Washington State Department of Health, cryptosporidium is a one-celled parasite that causes a gastrointestinal illness with symptoms of diarrhea, abdominal cramps, headaches, nausea, vomiting, and a low-grade fever. The symptoms can last for weeks and may result in weight loss and dehydration.

Because cryptosporidium is impervious to chlorine, Bellamy-Decker continued, you could infect the water supply by the bucket full of cryptosporidium, if you know where to get it. The resulting illness would put down a lot of civilians and military who might oppose you going into their country.The Syrians have a modus operandi of covert operations and deniability, she stressed, so biological weapons are absolutely perfect for them.WND asked Bellamy-Decker if the Syrians have any history of having used biological weapons.

I believe they are testing biological weapons right now, in Sudan, in the conflict in Darfur, she answered. There is credible information about flyover activity in Darfur, where little parachutes have been dropped down on the population. This is consistent with dispersal methods in bioweapons attacks. I've also seen evidence of bodies that have been recovered from Darfur that look as if they had been exposed to biological weapons.President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran met with Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir in Khartoum Feb. 28 to exchange expressions of support and solidarity.

The Syrians now consider biological weapons as part of their arsenal, Bellamy-Decker said. The Syrian military is also beginning to plan the eventual integration of biological weapons in its tactical and strategic arsenals.She referenced an April 2000 article published by Syrian defense minister General Mustafa Talas, titled Biological (Germ) Warfare: A New and Effective Method in Modern Warfare. The article was republished in a Farsi translation in Tehran.

All indications suggest that Syria's ultimate objective is to mount biological warheads on all varieties of the long-range surface-to-surface missiles in its possession, Bellamy-Decker maintained. This is a goal that can probably be achieved within a few years, and it may already have been realized in part.She argued that instead of producing large quantities of bioweapons agents, Syria is seeking to develop a smaller, but high-quality arsenal, which it can deliver accurately against military and civilian targets. When asked how Syria might be expected to retaliate against Israel or Europe if the U.S. attacked Iran, she responded, Syria has most likely forward-deployed some of their covert operatives. Smallpox does not need to be weaponized. Aerosol release is the way to go.Bellamy-Decker explained the methodology of a terrorist bio-attack:

So with a good primary aerosol release in an airport in Israel or Europe and you could get 100 index cases. If you've made the strain sufficiently virulent, you could have a ratio of 1 to 13 for infectivity, where the normal ratio is 1 to 3. If every index case infects 13 other people, you unfortunately have a great first hit.A terrorist bio-attack could go global, she noted. A good biological hit will spread
rapidly with international travel. Smallpox is a better weapon than anthrax. Smallpox has been field-tested, it is highly stable, and highly communicable, especially if you look at some of the strains the Russians manipulated. Syria probably retained some of [its] smallpox strains from the last outbreak back in 1972.Another risk is the possibility Syria's military might give bioweapons to terrorists. We are close to seeing a breakthrough where Syria could provide biological weapons to some of the terrorist groups they work with, like Hezbollah in Lebanon, Bellamy-Decker argued. The Syrians believe they can vaccinate themselves and they are working within the Syrian military. They're certainly not worried about releasing these biological weapons in a military setting, or even if civilians were infected as well, as long as they are vaccinated. I think it is a real threat.Bellamy-Decker is presenting a paper at this week's Intelligence Summit in St. Petersburg, Fla. It is expected to focus on the sophisticated state of development of the Syrian bioweapons program.

The Syrians have developed a rather remarkable bioweapons capability that has gone under the radar of U.S. intelligence, she said. U.S. intelligence continues to insist that the Syrian capability is not highly developed. The Syrian program mirrors how the Russians have developed their program, as well as Iraq under Saddam Hussein, North Korea, and Iran. The emphasis in the Syrian program is on latent potential and outbreak capability.Bellamy-Decker explained we should not expect to find stockpiles of biological weapons.

Stockpiles are just not how biological weapons are done, she said. With biological weapons, it is not the quantity, but the quality that counts. If you can produce a virulent, communicable strain, then you have a great biological weapon and it doesn't matter how much of it you have, it depends on what the weapon looks like.Bellamy-Decker also referenced a paper she had co-authored for the European Homeland Security Association (EHSA) titled, Public Health Security and Preparedness.This paper is intended to be used as part of a new initiative EHSA is launching in Brussels to hold a quarterly bioterrorism forum bringing together national and international experts with high-level decision-makers to discuss the threat posed by deliberate disease and the appropriate preparedness and response mechanisms vitally needed to address this threat.

What's happening in Israel. Messianic Bible Project MAR 05,07

More and more Jewish people in Israel are turning to Orthodox Judaism because they are trying to fill the spiritual emptiness in their lives.

Chabad Lubavitch, which is a sect of Orthodox Judaism, believes that if all Jews spend more time praying and doing more mitzvot (good deeds), that this will usher in the coming of the Messiah. However, about half of the Lubavitch followers believe that the late Rabbi Schneerson, who died in 1994 at the age of 92, is the promised Messiah of Israel. And the number of Jews who follow this false Messiah is growing daily!

With your help we can get our urgently-needed Messianic Prophecy Bible completed and distributed in Israel, so that Jewish people can be exposed to the truth of the Messianic Prophecies in the Hebrew Scriptures and see that Yeshua (Jesus) is the Real Messiah of Israel! Do you know that 99.9% of Israelis do not know that Yeshua is the Messiah and their Salvation? With 5.5 million Jewish people in Israel, and 5.3 million in the United States and Canada, the harvest fields are huge, but we need your help.

Did you put on tefillin today? Egal said to me as I was walking out of the shopping mall.Egal and two other Lubavitchers were standing outside the main entrance of the Ramat Aviv shopping mall (in a suburb of Tel Aviv), asking everyone to put on tefillin (phylacteries) and say the traditional Hebrew prayers. No, I didn't put on tefillin today, I replied. One of them took my left arm and pulled me over to the display table with their books on it, and he began wrapping the leather straps of the tefillin around my left arm. These straps are tied to a leather pouch, that contains small scrolls of Torah passages - the Word of God: Deuteronomy 6:8, 11:18 and Exodus 13:9, 16. The word tefillin comes from the root word tefilah which means prayer. I put on the tefillin so I could share Yeshua with them, and as I said the traditional prayers, I joyously prayed in the name of Yeshua!

Why are you praying in the name of Joshua? Egal asked me. Not Joshua, Yeshua, I replied. Yeshua of Nazareth who fulfilled all of the prophecies in the Tanakh (Old Testament), about the promised Messiah of Israel.

Egal then replied, Oh, you mean Yeshua the Christian ...well I know he was a Jew, born here in Israel. He was a good man, a Tzadik (righteous man) but he went astray and started a new religion. He obviously isn't the Moshiach (Messiah) because if he was the Messiah, Jews would believe in him, but as Jews we certainly don't accept that he is the Messiah.Wow - Egal's statement that Yeshua is rejected by His own people is actually a fulfillment of the Messianic prophecy in Psalm 118:22 which reads: The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief corner stone.

Egal then pointed to the books on his table and said to me, Zev you should read Rabbi Schneerson's writings and you will see that he is the Messiah! Have you read the Tanya or the Egross, Uri asked me, pointing to the books on their table. You must really read them, they will change your life forever.

You will find peace that you have never had, and all the questions about God and life will be answered.Pointing to the book on the table, Uri explained that the Tanya is a small book written by the first Rabbi of the Chassidic Lubavitch sect a couple of hundred years ago and it is the essential fundamentals of Jewish life. Zev, when you read the Tanya it will bring out something in you, the hidden part, and when you read and study it, you will come to the understanding of what being a Jew is, Egal explained. It has the answers to every question, and after you read it, you won't have any more questions about life. You will also come to the understanding that Rabbi Schneerson is the long awaited Messiah, and he is alive today! If he is alive, where is he? I asked Egal. He is with God in Heaven, he replied. I then said to Egal, isn't that a strange coincidence because Messianic Jews know that Yeshua is in heaven with God, and this fulfills the Messianic prophecy that King David wrote in Psalm 110:1: The LORD says to my Lord: Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.And this prophecy is fulfilled in the Brit Chadashah (New Testament) in Mark 16:19 where it says: After the Lord Yeshua had spoken to them, He was taken up into heaven and He sat at the right hand of God.

Still trying to convince me that Rabbi Schneerson is the Messiah, Uri pointed to the bigger books and explained that along with the Tanya I must read Egross. These books are called Egross which are 26 volumes of letters that were written to Rabbi Schneerson over a period of 50 years.

Our beloved Rabbi answered questions from his followers and all of these letters are published in these 26 volumes of Egross.There are questions about: business (such as what to do with a business partner who is stealing from you); family (how to deal with a husband who yells at his children, or gets involved with another woman); prayer - (how and when to pray), how to do this, or how to do that - any question you can imagine, the Rabbi answered them all and they are here in the Egross, Egal explained.

Zev, Listen Uri said, Rabbi Schneerson is the Messiah because the Torah says that he is Messiah. Because the Torah says the Messiah is alive - we know that Rabbi Schneerson - King Messiah is not dead, he is alive.Egal told me that he has only been a Lubavitcher for two years. Before that he was a completely secular Israeli. He did not grow a beard, and he barely even believed in God. But when I became Lubavitch, for the first time I got to know God, and who I am, Egal said. I explained to Egal the prophecies about the Messiah, but he was convinced by the books of Tanya and Egross that Rabbi Schneerson is the Messiah. He now works full-time for the Chabab Lubavitch movement recruiting other people to become Lubavitch, and to believe that the dead Rabbi Schneerson is the Messiah.

It is very sad that Jewish people rarely read the Tanakh (Bible). Instead they read other spiritual books like the Tanya and Egross which continue to blind them from the truth that Yeshua is the Messiah of Israel. What do you think would have happened if Egal did not meet other Lubavitchers or read the Tanya and Egross, but instead he met Israeli outreach workers who gave him one of our Messianic Prophecy Bibles?

I think Egal would believe in Messiah Yeshua, and he would be saved today.

Our Messianic Prophecy Bible will explain how Yeshua fulfilled all of the prophecies about the Messiah.

Unlike Rabbi Schneerson who did not fulfill the Messianic prophecies, Yeshua did coming riding into Jerusalem on a donkey (Zechariah 9:9), Yeshua was born a miraculous birth (Isaiah 7:14), Yeshua was born in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2), Yeshua did fulfill the time period when the Messiah had to be cut off (Daniel 9:24-26), and there are about 30 other prophecies that Yeshua fulfilled. The late Rabbi Schneerson who is buried in New York, fulfilled NONE of them! He never even visited Jerusalem. The Lubavitch movement has 4,000 full-time outreach workers and a budget of hundreds of millions of dollars to spread lies and the false teaching that Rabbi Schneerson is the Messiah. It is so important for you to make the best gift you can today, so that we can get Lubavitchers and all Jews, a copy of the Messianic Prophecy Bible when it is completed. They will see that Yeshua is the Real Messiah spoken of in the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) and have eternal life! Please make a donation to the Bible Project.http://messianicbible.com/donate.asp
