December 31, 2009 | One of the Best Each Friday we provide you with one of the week's most thought-provoking articles. | Party on, world by Stan Goodenough Today, as midnight arrives in country after country, explosions of celebration are set to rend the skies, from over the Opera House in Sydney (GMT minus 10 hours) to over Pearl Harbor in Hawaii (GMT plus 10 hours). Wherever the Gregorian calendar is held to, toasts will be drunk, fireworks fired, dances kicked off, resolutions made and new wall calendars hung. As the final days of 2009 ticked away, television networks and other media parsed the main happenings of the year, held votes for the most influential people of the year, and tried their hand at forecasting the events they believe could come to pass in 2010. The annual, worldwide party has almost “everyone” hyped up with excitement and anticipation.

Not only is this morally and factually incorrect, but the more this narrative is being accepted, the less likely the Palestinians feel the need to come to the negotiating table. Statements like these … are not only incorrect; they push a negotiated solution further away. God says: “I will make an everlasting covenant with them: I will never stop doing good to them, and I will inspire them to fear me, so that they will never turn away from me. I will rejoice in doing them good and will most assuredly plant them in this land with all my heart and soul.” Jeremiah 32:40 The Jerusalem Connection says: The fact of the matter is the Palestinians do not want a negotiated solution, unless of course, that would mean the total annihilation of the modern state of Israel – which is not going to happen. Not only does Israel have Biblical guarantees to the land but it has been established by international law as well. 2010 could be a pivotal year in Israel’s relationship to the Hamas and Hezbollah Jihadists that are sponsored by Iran. Due to the timid appeasement policies of the U.S., it appears it is just a matter of time before Israel is forced to eliminate the existential threat posed by Iran. Hopefully the defeat of the Jihadists on Israel’s northern and southern borders will soon follow. | The Seven Feasts of Israel The First and Second Coming of Messiah Watch Video | Start the New Year off right!
