REVELATION 3:15-19
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I(GOD) will spue (VOMIT) thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

Francis: “It's a contradiction for a Christian to be anti-Semitic”
Bergoglio with the Chief Rabbi of Rome Riccardo Di Segni
A Jewish delegation visits Francis on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the deportation of Rome’s Jews. Chief Rabbi Di Segni praises the Lampedusa recovery efforts
ANDREA TORNIELLI vatican city “It’s a contradiction that a Christian is anti-Semitic: His roots are Jewish,” said the Pope. “A Christian cannot be anti-Semitic! Let Anti-Semitism be banished from the heart and life of every man and every woman!” Pope Francis said this to members of Rome’s Jewish community, whom he met today, to mark the 70th anniversary of the deportation of the city’s Jewish population during the Nazi occupation.The Pope recalled that “for many centuries … the Jewish community and the Church of Rome have lived in our city, with a history - as we well know - which was often transversed by misunderstandings and even true grievances,” Pope Francis said. “However, it is a story, that with the help of God, has for many decades experienced the development of friendly and fraternal relations.”“Naturally the Second Vatican Council reflections on the Catholic side have contributed” to this change in mentality “but the life and actions of wise and generous individuals on both sides have also had an important part to play with their “courageous efforts in creating new paths for understanding and dialogue”. “Paradoxically, the shared tragedy of the war taught us to walk alongside each other. In a few days we will commemorate the 70th anniversary of the deportation of Rome’s Jewish population,” Francis added. It will be a chance to remember and pray for the victims and their families. “It will also be an opportunity to keep vigilant so that, under any pretext, any forms of intolerance and anti-Semitism in Rome and the rest of the world not come back to life. I've said it other times and I would like to repeat it now: It’s a contradiction that a Christian is anti-Semitic: His roots are Jewish,” said the Pope. “A Christian cannot be anti-Semitic! Let Anti-Semitism be banished from the heart and life of every man and every woman!”Francis also reminded his audience of the efforts made by Christians and the clergy, with Pius XII’s blessing, to help the Jewish population. The Pope also said that “the anniversary offers a chance to remember how the Christian community responded during this “hour of darkness” to the needs of his brother in difficulty. We know how many religious institutions, monasteries and Papal Basilicas, interpreting the will of the Pope, opened their doors in a brotherly welcome , and how many ordinary Christians offered what help they could give, however big or small.”“The vast majority” of these Christians, Francis said, “were not aware of the need to update the Christian understanding of Judaism, and perhaps knew very little about the life of the Jewish community, But they had the courage to do what at that time was the right thing: to protect their brother, who was in danger. I would like to emphasize this aspect, because if it is true that it is important, on both sides, to study, in depth, theological reflections through dialogue, it is also true that there is a dialogue of life, that of everyday experience, which is no less important. Indeed, without this, without a real and concrete culture of encounter, which leads to authentic relationships, which exist without prejudice and suspicion, the engagement in the intellectual field would serve little purpose.”Finally, Francis pointed to some among the “many things” that the two communities have in common: the Decalogue as a solid foundation and source of life for our society which has become disoriented as a result of an extreme pluralism of choices and orientations.The Pope also sent the community a written message to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the deportation of Rome’s Jews. The message contained an appeal to the new generations not to let their existence become flat, not to let themselves be influenced by ideologies, never to justify the evils they come across, not let their guard down and continue fighting against anti-Semitism and racism, whatever their background.In his opening greeting to the Pope, the Chief Rabbi of Rome, Riccardo Di Segni, alluded to the Biblical story of Noah’s Arc and the global flood, saying: “there is still something about that story that torments us: out of the whole of humanity only one family survives inside a boat, while everything else is destroyed by the flood.” “But in the past few days we have seen the exact opposite happening: we’ve seen people in a boat dying while the rest of humanity survives, helpless and indifferent.” “Our history and our faith rebel against this and with your strong presence which shares in this rebellion, you have proven that we have common values to pass on to humanity,” the Chief Rabbi continued.“It was a positive meeting,” Chief Rabbi Di Segni told Vatican Insider. The Pope showed a “great willingness to listen and a propositional attitude. In both our private and public meetings we spoke about biblical exegesis, history and solidarity.”

Francis: “The devil exists, let’s not confuse it with a mental illness”
Pope Francis
In this morning’s homily for the daily mass in St. Martha’s House, Francis said “Let us not do business with the devil”
ANDREA TORNIELLI vatican city Pope Francis spoke again of the devil at today’s mass in St. Martha’s House, inviting faithful to take the Scriptures that mention the devil, seriously. The text Francis commented on today was a passage from Luke’s Gospel, which says that Jesus casts out demons but is not understood by the people.“There are some priests who, when they read this Gospel passage, this and others say: ‘But, Jesus healed a person with a mental illness’. They do not read this, no? It is true that at that time, they could confuse epilepsy with demonic possession; but it is also true that there was the devil! And we do not have the right to simplify the matter, as if to say: ‘All of these (people) were not possessed; they were mentally ill’. No! The presence of the devil is on the first page of the Bible, and the Bible ends as well with the presence of the devil, with the victory of God over the devil,” Francis said.Francis’ call to faithful not to downplay or confuse the devil’s action with mental illnesses was particularly striking. Francis asked Christians not to be naïve when faced with the temptation of finding explanations “to diminish the power of the Lord.” “There is always the temptation to want to diminish the figure of Jesus, as if he were “a healer at most” and so as not to take him “so seriously”. This temptation still exists today.The Pope then outlined three ways of fighting evil: “Do not confuse the truth. Jesus fights the devil: first criterion. Second criterion: he who is not with Jesus is against Jesus. There are no attitudes in the middle. Third criterion: vigilance over our hearts because the devil is astute. He is never cast out forever. It will only be so on the last day.”“Vigilance,” Francis said, “because his strategy is this: ‘You became Christian. Advance in your faith. I will leave you. I will leave you tranquil. But then when you are used to not being so watchful and you feel secure, I will come back’. The Gospel today begins with the devil being cast out and ends with the devil coming back! St. Peter would say: ‘It is like a fierce lion that circles us’. It is like that.”“‘But, Father, you a little ancient. You are frightening us with these things…’ No, not me! It is the Gospel! And these are not lies: it is the Word of the Lord! Let us ask the Lord for the grace to take these things seriously. He came to fight for our salvation. He won against the devil! Please, let us not do business with the devil! He seeks to return home, to take possession of us… Do not relativize; be vigilant! And always with Jesus!.DANIEL 11:21-23
21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.
23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people.
24 He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time.
DANIEL 9:26-27
26 And after threescore and two weeks(62X7=434 YEARS+7X7=49 YEARS=TOTAL OF 69 WEEKS OR 483 YRS) shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary;(ROMAN LEADERS DESTROYED THE 2ND TEMPLE) and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.(THERE HAS TO BE 70 WEEKS OR 490 YRS TO FUFILL THE VISION AND PROPHECY OF DAN 9:24).(THE NEXT VERSE IS THAT 7 YR WEEK OR (70TH FINAL WEEK).
27 And he ( THE ROMAN,EU PRESIDENT) shall confirm the covenant (PEACE TREATY) 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 ANIMAL 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.
JEREMIAH 6:14
14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
JEREMIAH 8:11
11 For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
1 THESSALONIANS 5:3
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
ISAIAH 33:8
8 The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant,(7 YR TREATY) he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.(THE WORLD LEADER-WAR MONGER CALLS HIMSELF GOD)
ISAIAH 28:14-19 (THIS IS THE 7 YR TREATY COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27)
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
Danon: 'Need to Weigh Up Future of Negotiations'
In
light of earlier incidents, Jordan Valley attack creates a "disturbing
picture," says Deputy Defense Minister Danny Danon.-By Kochava

Deputy Defense Minister Danny Danon-Flash 90
Danon told interviewers on Israeli radio network Reshet Bet that there was room to weigh up whether or not to continue negotiations with the Palestinian Authority following the attacks, and the incitement he said lay behind them.According to the Deputy Defense Minister, "forces trying to undermine" Mahmoud Abbas' leadership could also have been behind the attack."Israel expects the Palestinian Authority to react and take actions, but at the moment we are not seeing this," Danon lamented.Many political figures have rejected claims that the recent spate of terror attacks is not the responsibility of the Palestinian Authority (PA) and its Chaiman, Mahmoud Abbas.Following the attack in Psagot last week, which saw a nine-year old Israeli girl shot in the neck at close range, Israeli Housing Minister Uri Ariel said: “the same 'Abu' is not denouncing and the same 'Mazen' is not taking action to arrest terrorists but only making gestures.” Abu Mazen is another name for the PA Chairman. Minister Uri Ariel also said that the current violence is a problem that requires that the government “stop, think anew, reach conclusions and see how we continue.”Also following Thursday night's attack, Judea and Samaria (Yesha) Council Chairman and Head of the Binyamin Regional Council Avi Ro'eh said that the continued negotiations with the Palestinian Authority had only led to an increase in terror attacks, adding that they gave the impression of weakness and sent out the wrong message.
