The shocking TruTh

have ever produced!

And many more!

uddenly, in 100 major cities across America, the billboards went

up — proclaiming an astonishing lie: that the Jesus of the Koran and the Jesus of the Holy Bible are one in the same!

What a falsehood!When I heard the news

about this outrageous campaign of deception, organized by a leading Muslim organization, I was outraged. I knew instantly it was a colossal lie, because I have memorized many verses of the Koran.

I could not stand by and let the people of America be lured in to this delusion. So Rexella and I immediately went into our television

studios and created the single strongest video we have ever produced — not only the strongest, but also the most important ... and certainly the most urgently needed by multitudes in these

latter days!This critically important video,

Islam Exposed, shines the blazing spotlight of truth on the gross misrepresentations about Jesus in the Koran.

This video reveals the deceitful distortions about Jesus being promoted by Islam’s advocates.

Islam Exposed proves that the Jesus of the Koran and the Jesus of the Christian Bible are diametrically opposed!

Oh beloved, do not be blinded!

brings you answers to these compelling questions:

BLOCKBUSTER VIDEO REVEALS WHAT MAINSTREAM MEDIA WON’T TELL YOU!

Don’t allow yourself to be deceived! Don’t go the route of multitudes who are buying into distorted statements promoted by Islam. Many in our own Western media have made this dangerous mistake and are now promoting the falsehoods of Islam. President Obama is among them!

You need this video, because we must counteract deception with the pure truth of the Word! Galatians 1:8 states emphatically: “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.” We as God’s people must live by this scriptural truth.

Here is only a small sampling of what you will discover in this hard-hitting new video:

1. Who are the false prophets today, predicted in the Bible?

2. What really is Shariah law? Why is it dangerous?

3. Which countries are implementing Shariah law?

4. Which are the most murderous organizations in radical Islam?

5. What reward did the 9/11 murderers receive for killing 3,000 souls?

6. What is the Yale Covenant? How does it relate to today’s 300 Christian false prophets that signed the Covenant?

7. What does the Koran say will happen to the families of those who kill Christians?

8. What does the Bible say about the coming war with Russia? How is Russia taking steps today toward

the predicted outcome?

9. What is the ultimate goal of radical Islam?

10. What is the motivation behind Islamic terrorism?

11. Why are so many ignorant about what Muslims actually teach about Islam?

12. Why are factions of Islam fighting against each other? What does it mean?

13. Who was the mastermind behind the 9/11 terror attacks? What’s happening to him today?

14. How many Christians has Islam already slaughtered? (This number will shock you!)

15. What is “taqiyya” and how does it contradict the Bible? (In this video I expose the truth about “taqiyya” — the Muslim teaching that any kind of deceit or lies will be forgiven by Allah as long as this information promotes Islam! This utterly contradicts the Holy Bible: “Thou shalt not bear false witness” of Exodus 20:16.)

16. What do Muslims actually believe about Jesus? The answer will shock you — backed by verses from the Koran.

17. Should the United States have a Muslim President? Why or why not? (Presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson has warned against such a movement.)

18. How is the stage being set today for Christ’s return?

19. How is the Islamic Circle of North America promoting Islam?

20. How is ISIS growing?

21. How has President Obama demonstrated anti-Israel and pro-Muslim attitudes?

22. How do we know Jesus is the Son of God? Does the Koran tell us this? (In fact, the Koran states eight different times that anyone who says that God the Father has a Son will burn in hell forever! Our Holy Bible states in I John 2:22, “He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.”)

23. Does the Koran really tell Muslims to kill those who disagree with them?

24. How do we know Jesus is the only way to heaven? Does the Koran tell us this?

25. How do we know our Savior died, was buried, and rose from the dead? Does the Koran tell us this?

26. Can a democracy and Islam coexist?

And many more!If you only requested one video

in your entire lifetime from our ministry, I would plead with you to request this video: Islam Exposed. This extraordinary resource exposes the truth about Iran teaching children to murder Jews ... about the war between Sunni and Shiite Muslims ... about the murderous ISIS organization, which recently killed so many in France, and the list goes on.

But this video also clearly expresses the plan of salvation. My prayer is that this video will lead your precious unsaved loved one to faith in Jesus Christ! Please give generously to Jack Van Impe Ministries today and request your copy of ISLAM EXPOSED.

he very name Jesus means “salvation.” Matthew 1:21 states, Thou shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Multitudes today are trusting in manmade rituals to get them inside God’s heaven. Yet, there isn’t a ceremonial rite in all of Christendom’s churches that can save a man. Jesus Christ alone is the only way to eternal life.

Christ’s saving power

In that tremendous portion of Scripture often described as the “Magnificat,” Mary, the mother of Jesus, cried out, My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour (Luke 1:46-47). In Luke 2, the angel of the Lord appeared to the shepherds, saying, Behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord (v. 10-11).

Also in Luke 2, Simeon had been waiting for the consolation or hope of Israel. He jubilantly exclaimed, Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word: For mine eyes have seen thy salvation (29-30). He was looking upon the Christ child as he spoke those words.

Again in John 4, a wicked woman — who had five husbands and who was living under common law with number six — turned to Jesus

Christ for forgiveness. Then she excitedly ran back to the city and told the people about her newfound joy in this Savior who had blotted out her sordid past. The men of that city listened to the Lord’s discourses for two days and exuberantly stated, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world (v. 42).

In Acts 5, Peter and some of the apostles were threatened with punishment, even unto death (v. 33). However, the great Apostle Peter so loved Jesus. He believed so strongly in the fact that Jesus was the only way of salvation and eternal life that he was willing to die in order that the message might be proclaimed. I can almost hear this impulsive preacher saying, We ought to obey God rather than men. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree. Him hath

God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour (v. 29-31).

Acts 13:23 calls Him a Saviour, Jesus. Ephesians 5:23 says, Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Compare this verse with 1 Corinthians 12:13, For

by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body. The Body of Christ, into which one is implanted at the time of regeneration, is the Church, and Ephesians 5:23 states that Christ is the Savior of this Body. Baptism, reformation, confirmation,

works, creeds, and human efforts cannot place one into the true Church because only the Lord Jesus Christ is alone the Savior. Amen!

The Apostle Paul stated that one of the reasons he was willing to endure suffering, torture, and even

death was because of his trust in the Savior. Death could only mean that the One who saved him would welcome him home to heaven. Hear him in 1 Timothy 4:10: For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

In 2 Timothy 1:9-10, Paul went on to say that it was not a system of self-attainment through works that would place him eternally in the glory land, but rather a precious Savior whose

I esusChrist:

Savior of the World

The Lord

The Holy Bible gives God’s Son manifold titles. However, the one that means so much to all of us as poor, helpless sinners is “Savior”— which immediately instills hope within one’s heart concerning salvation.

by Dr. Jack Van Impe

Thou shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

according to the scriptures. This alone is the message of the Gospel, the Good News, the only way of salvation. Christ died, shed His blood, and rose again.

Christ’s redeeming blood

Christ’s power to save all the world was wrought through His precious blood shed on Calvary. Leviticus 17:11: It is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. Acts 20:28: The church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. 1 Peter 1:18,19: Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. Revelation 1:5: Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood. Yes, without [the] shedding of blood [there] is no remission [of sins] (Hebrews 9:22).

It is not enough simply to state that Christ died — as so many intellectuals do today in order to do away with the sacrifice of His blood. A bloodless death on the cross would not have saved anyone. Let me repeat that. Had Christ died of a heart attack or of suffocation upon the cross, mankind would have been lost forever, for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. Because of this fact, Christ came to earth to take upon Himself a body with blood so that He might shed that blood for our sins (see Hebrews 10:5). When one receives this sacrifice of the shed blood of Jesus Christ, he is saved immediately.

Christ’s redemptive purpose

If the Lord Jesus Christ is the Savior and has saving power, we may conclude that He came to earth because sinners need saving. This is

exactly what Paul said. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners (1 Timothy 1:15). Not only does this statement include everyone we know, but ourselves as well. Christ would have all men to be saved, including you and me (1 Timothy 2:4). [Christ] gave himself a ransom for all (1 Timothy 2:6).

The only reason some people will never get saved is that they do not realize that they are lost. They think they were born into sainthood just like the Pharisee in the temple. He said, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are (Luke 18:11). However, Jesus said in Matthew 5:20, Except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Why? The Pharisees were so

caught up in the admiration of their own goodness that they were convinced they needed nothing from God — nothing at all! Yet, God says in Isaiah 64:6, We are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags. Galatians 3:22: The scripture hath concluded all under sin. Thus, God not only

wants to save mankind from the misery of sin in this life, but also from the eternal penalty into which sin will drag those who reject Christ. He that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth [eternity] on him (John 3:36). Why? Because he won’t receive the Son.

Oh, my friend, if you are lost, the Savior longs to save you. You need saving because all are sinners and only through His blood can you be washed white. You may be whitewashed because you’ve had all the rituals of the Church performed upon you, but you really need to be washed white to inherit eternal life! Why not call on Him right now, saying, “Lord Jesus, come into my heart”?

name was Jesus Christ. Listen to the simplicity of these instructive verses. [God] hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began. But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel [or through the good news].

Again, He hath abolished death. What wonderful words! And [He] hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. Immortality speaks of eternal life — and it comes through the Gospel or the “good news.” Do you get the impact? Eternal life is through the Gospel and gospel means “good news.”

This good news is explained in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 where we find that Christ died, was buried, and rose again the third day according to the Scriptures. Put it all together and it simply says that everlasting life does not come through one’s denominational record or good works. It comes as a result of one’s acceptance of the Savior’s death by the shedding of blood and of His resurrection. Titus 2:13 speaks of Christ’s return by stating, Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. Notice that it is not Buddha, Mohammed, or Zoroaster who is the Savior, but only the Lord

Jesus Christ. There is no other Savior — Jesus is the only way. 2 Peter 1:1 again calls Him our Saviour Jesus Christ.

Christ’s earthly ministry

“Savior” is not some honorary title that was bestowed upon the Lord Jesus Christ in recognition of His wonderful teachings. Rather, it depicts His

ministry upon earth and speaks of His saving power.

Presently, we are living in a time of rebellion. Corrupted mankind is trying to destroy all of our foundational structures. This trend can also be witnessed in the religious world as apostate, liberal clergymen mock the doctrines of the virgin birth, the deity of Christ, His blood atonement upon the cross, and His bodily resurrection. Many laugh at the statement “Jesus saves,” as if the word “saves” were an invention of some simpleton.

Our God predicted this would happen, and it is one of the signs of the end. 2 Peter 2:1-2: But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be [one of the signs] false teachers among you, who privity shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

There are two things one can do for these poor misguided souls: (1) pray for them, and (2) thank God for their presence because it means that Jesus Christ is coming soon to call Christians home. Let them laugh. The term saved was placed in the Bible scores of times by a Holy God. One had better investigate and accept this truth if he is interested in eternal life.

I could quote numerous verses

proving that salvation is of God and that God put this word in the Bible. However, let’s limit our discussion to those that speak exclusively about Christ being the way of salvation: Thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins (Matthew 1:21). For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost (Matthew 18:11). God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him [Jesus] might be saved (John 3:17).

Jesus said, I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved (John 10:9). I came not to judge the world, but to save the world (John 12:47).

Paul said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved (Acts 16:31). For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ [not rites, ceremonies, rituals, the Sermon on the Mount, the Golden Rule, or the Ten Commandments, but the Gospel or the Good News of Christ]: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth (Romans 1:16). We shall be saved from wrath through him (Romans 5:9). If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved (Romans 10:9).

In 1 Corinthians 15:1-2 we find this statement: Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel [the good news] which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved. How? Verses 3 and 4: Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and...he was buried, and...he rose again the third day

If the Lord Jesus Christ is the Savior and has saving power, we may conclude that He came to earth because sinners need saving.

...And many more!

I can remember numerous times when I’ve personally said something similar to friends, and many

other times when I’ve had the experience of people saying to me, “God bless you, Rexella, God bless you!” But have you ever had the feeling that those words, which should always express a sincere, prayerful wish, had almost become a cliché — empty and largely meaningless? “God bless you”— almost like the throwaway greeting, “How are you?”

Jack and I had a good friend, Willard Mason, now gone on to heaven. He was a big, fun-loving man with a great sense of humor and a streak of mischief that never quite went away. One evening when we met for dinner and were greeting each other, I asked, “How are you, Willard?”

Instead of responding with the usual “Fine,” he replied, “Thanks for asking, Rexella. Are you just being nice or do you really want to know?” When I stammered a little at his unexpected query, Willard burst into laughter, and the rest of us joined in.

I believe when we say “God bless you,” the implication of those words should penetrate our own hearts and motivate us to help bring those words to reality. This may well require us to give something of ourselves

to be a blessing in someone else’s life. If we are really, genuinely honest, how can we say “God bless you” to someone and then walk away?

How can you be a blessIng?

One of the best things we can possibly do to be a blessing to someone else is to pray for that individual. The apostle Paul wrote to the believers at Philippi, I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy, for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now (Philippians 1:3-5).

When we wish the blessing of God upon a friend or neighbor, pray joyfully for that person, asking the Lord to be near them and to meet their needs. How often do we do that? The Bible says, The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much (James 5:16). Do we believe this?

There have been times when I “blessed” an acquaintance and

walked on. Sometimes I would whisper a hurried prayer — “Lord, please be near to her and meet every need of her life” — as I went on to my next errand or appointment. But too often I didn’t remember to pray again — certainly not in what I would consider an “effectual fervent” way.

As long as I’m confessing, I must admit there have even been times when someone would ask me to pray about a circumstance or situation in their lives, and I’d promise that I would. But before I actually got around to it, time passed! Sometimes I wouldn’t

remember to pray until I saw those acquaintances again, or someone else mentioned their problem or need. Has this ever happened to you?

You can write this down and underscore it for emphasis — if you have the opportunity to say “God bless you” to someone,

By Dr. Rexella Van Impe

During the holiDay season, time anD again i hear people warmly greeting each other anD saying, “i hope you have a wonDerful holiDay — happy new year, anD goD bless you!”

I believe when we say “God bless you,” the implication of those words should penetrate our own hearts and motivate us to help bring those words to reality.

for any individual’s needs supernaturally, miraculously. But most of the time, He chooses to supply needs and answer prayers through the love and help of other people. In the words of a famous prayer, “God has no hands on earth but ours!”

So when the Lord leads you to a person who needs to hear you say “God bless you,” look also for ways your hands can be anointed and used to make that prayer come true. As the poet wrote —

Dream large, my soul,dream large,

God thinks His thoughtsthrough you!

the blessing of unconDitional love

If God’s blessings are to flow through us to others, they must be wrapped and bathed in love — unconditional love. We have such a limited view of what and how to love. Too often we offer our love only IF — if you meet my conditions, if you behave the way I think you should, if you look right or smell right, or do what I want you to do. But God loves us just the way we are.

The Bible says, And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. And also, the fruit of the Spirit is love.... (1 Corinthians 13:13, Galatians 5:22).

Are you a lover — a lover of God, a lover for God?

The other day at a meeting,

someone paid me a wonderful compliment. A woman asked, “Rexella, do you know so-and-so?” And I replied, “I don’t believe I do.” One of the girls standing near me said, “No, but she would love to know everyone!”

That was a real blessing and encouragement to me. Because I believe we should have that kind of love, don’t you? Love that accepts … love that opens its arms to all … and love that gives all it has to give.

God says, “My children, I want to bless you.” So what does He do? He gives us His love. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). He gives us His peace. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and

minds through Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). He gives us His comfort. Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28). He gives us His wisdom. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him (James 1:5). He gives us everlasting life. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:9-10).

Isn’t that a blessing? So we are only trying to follow in His footsteps when we say “God bless you,” and then share what He has given us to make that blessing a reality.

One of my favorite old hymns cries out —

What shall I give thee, Master,Thou hast given all for me,

Not just a part,or half of my heart,

I will give all to Thee.

That’s really all that is required if we are to be a channel for His blessing. God bless you, my friend!

you also have the responsibility to pray for that person and ask God to bless him or her and supply every need! That is why whenever someone approaches Jack and me with a burden and prayer request, we will step off to the side with that person and immediately go before God’s throne in prayer.

Give of yourself by sharinG your time

What can you do to be a blessing? You may not feel that you are a great intercessor — you may have limited financial resources and very modest means. But it may well be that you can give the most precious gift of all, some of your time. You see, our lives are made up of seconds, minutes, hours, and days. So when we give a portion of time to another, we are giving part of our very being ... something we can never get back.

The Bible says, Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ (Galatians 6:2). What if you just dropped by to share a cup of tea and an hour’s conversation with a lonely friend? What if you did some chores or ran some errands for a shut-in? Would that be a blessing

and lift a burden? Absolutely!

the tanGible touch!

I don’t believe you can say “God bless you” to someone in obvious need and mean it if you don’t do something real and practical to meet his or her need. That’s not just my idea — the apostle John has something to say about that. But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? … Let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth (1 John 3:17, 18).

The beloved cartoonist, Charles Schulz, once drew a Peanuts cartoon strip that illustrated the lesson of faith versus works described in James 2:15-16. In the first panel, Charlie Brown, bundled up in a heavy coat, boots, mittens, a hat, and scarf, passes by the dog, Snoopy, shivering in the wind and cold of a snowstorm.

“Be of good cheer, Snoopy,” says Charlie Brown. “Be warmed and fed.” The next panel shows Lucy passing by Snoopy. She is also bundled up in warm clothing from head to toe. “Yes,

Snoopy,” she says, “Stay warm and be of good cheer.” In the third panel, Charlie and Lucy go inside their warm houses out of the howling wind and blowing snow of the blizzard. In the last panel, a shivering, miserable Snoopy hugs his body and looks woefully at the closed door of Charlie Brown’s house.

The apostle James also reminds us of our failures. He said, If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, and one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? (James 2:15-16).

God has no hands on earth but ours

There is no need to ever say, “I wish I knew what I could do to serve the Lord.” I believe that every time we have the opportunity to say “God bless you” to someone, there is also an underlying opportunity to do something tangible, within our means and ability, to help make that blessing happen.

Yes, God has unlimited power and resources, and, if need be, He could provide

a Christian will or estate plan allows you to designate what you will leave to your heirs,

your church, the ministries you love — and helps you minimize taxes and fees, too.

Drs. Rexella and Jack, I have watched your show since I was a teenager. I SO love your ministry, and over the years you two have helped my walk with Christ.

I was lucky to have had two wonderful Christian parents, who are asleep in Jesus, and I was saved when I was 12. I’m 67 now.

Dr. Van Impe, God has spared you because this evil world needs you like never before. I beg your prayers for my 41-year-old daughter who has bipolar disorder and will NOT take her meds. My heart is broken.

Rexella, you never age. I love you both!!

— A.I.

I thank God for you both and continuously pray for your health and wisdom to spread God’s Holy Word.

One day soon we will all enjoy being with the good Lord Jesus

Christ in our new home in heaven … no more pain and suffering. So many people need you now more than ever. The time is getting shorter for people to come to Jesus. Stay safe and healthy!

— A.D.

I’ve been saved since 1977. I’m an honorably discharged veteran and I’ve been a paramedic for 30 years.

I appreciate the fact that you speak with the boldness so many of our fellow ministers have failed to display. I’ve been ordained for 20 years — I find myself wondering where our lions are. I’m glad that we still have men of God like you willing to speak the truth

regardless of consequence. God bless you, Jack and

Rexella And keep the message going.

Love in Jesus’ name, your brother in Christ....

— T.R.

Thank you, Jack Van Impe, for your book and all your research from history and the Word of God. It’s been such help for me as I’ve studied the book of Daniel since 1976, when I became born again.

Also I have Revelation Revealed, my next venture.

The nations are lined up as you quoted John F. Walvoord — with Russia in Syria setting up bases. Could it be ISIS is the hook in the jaws?

Watch and pray, Jesus told us. Pray for me, as I’m hoping to

do a prayer walk in Israel in 2016. Thank you both for your ministry.

— S.F.

Brother Jack, the world needs you to keep on keeping on preaching TRUTH as you always have. Especially in these last days, please keep standing firm as all true believers should.

Thank you for not tickling the

I enjoyed Rexella’s message about trusting God. I’m afraid I have a long way to go to be good at this one.

I grew up in a very works-oriented faith where almost everything was according to your own efforts, including your spot in heaven.

I have been trying to adjust my thinking regarding the true nature of God, but I have a lifetime of misinformation to overcome. It isn’t easy but I did enjoy your message, and I watch you both every Sunday.

— C.W.

I enjoy your newsletters! Thanks so much to both of you

for everything you do and continue to do to share the

love of our Lord, Jesus Christ, and His soon

return. I have been watching you for

years and look forward to every Sunday evening so I can listen to your program. I marvel at how you continue

to touch our

lives with a passion for sharing Jesus.

Words can never thank you for how you have educated me throughout the years. I thank God for you two and hope to meet you someday in heaven, or on earth when we all will be reigning with Jesus.

Jack, so glad you are back. I really missed you, and thank God that you will be with us when the Rapture takes place!

Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and a joyous New Year!

Dear Jack and Rexella, Thank you so much for your ministry’s superb coverage and updates on the wanton slaughter of innocents by Islamic murderers in Paris, France. Your reports are the only Christian news source I can find that is keeping up with events, as they happen. Keep up the good work.

God bless you, Jack and Rexella Van Impe. I will be praying constantly for God’s protection from physical harm and the door to remain open in all of your venues

are so needed right now.

I really enjoy your newsletter. It helps me to understand what the Bible is saying about

the last days, before our Lord and Savior will call us home to be with Him.

Brother Van Impe, it is good to have you back on your show where you belong. Sister Van Impe, you are an encouragement to me for the way you did what the Lord wanted you to do and to follow the Holy Spirit’s guidance. The both of you together make a great team.

God bless you richly with His grace and to protect you from any harm that will come your way. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

HAMAS CLERIC VOWS: WE WON’T LEAVE A SINGLE

JEW, DEAD OR ALIVEOctober 21, 2015 —

Israel National News reports: “Presenting a show on Hamas’s official Al Aqsa TV station, a leading Islamist cleric vowed the terrorist group would ‘not leave a

single Jew, dead or alive … on the land of Islam and the Muslims.’

Against the backdrop of an ongoing series of Arab terrorist attacks against Israeli Jews, in comments translated by MEMRI, the preacher declared ‘that not a single Jew will remain on this land.’

‘We will not leave a single one of you, alive or dead, on this land. By Allah, we will dig up your bones from your graves and get them out of this country. We will not leave any trace of you in this land.’

Sheikh Iyad Abu Funun even went so far as to swear on a copy of the Koran that Hamas would carry out its genocidal designs enshrined in its charter,

which calls not only for the total destruction of the state of Israel but for the eventual annihilation of the Jewish people....” (The true one and only God, Yahweh, states: …I will give them [Israel] an everlasting name which will not be cut off in Isaiah 56:5. Your ignorance concerning God’s great promise to Israel means you, Sheikh Iyad Abu Funun, will lose your soul in hell forever.)

ABBAS BEGS UN FOR ‘PROTECTION OF THE

PALESTINIAN PEOPLE’October 28, 2015 —

Israel National News reports: “Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas called Wednesday in Geneva for the creation of a ‘special regime’ for the protection of his people, despite the fact that it is the Palestinian Arabs — not Israelis — causing the waves of terror in Israel over the past month.

Abbas called on the UN, ‘more urgently than any time before, to set up a special regime for international protection for the Palestinian people, immediately and urgently.’

Arab rioters have been turning the Temple Mount into a terror den in recent weeks, but yet it is Israel which has been blamed for the violence, even though it acts in self-defense to protect the compound from the rioters.

The riots have snowballed into an unprecedented wave of stabbings, shootings, and other attacks against Jews and Israelis — with 778 incidents reported over the past four weeks alone....” (Please reread the bottom three lines of this article as it truthfully tells who the guilty religious murderers are. It matters not that God’s Commandments state: Thou shalt not kill — Exodus 20:13. Today’s ministers fight capital punishment by quoting this verse that ignores Exodus 21:12 on the next page — He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death. Plus, Leviticus 24:17 is equally ignored: …he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.)

CHRISTIAN WOMAN MURDERED FOR SHARING

her home in Kalampete village in Kibuku District and killed last week, according to Morning Star News.

She opened the door of her home to a mob of Muslims who

demanded to see her husband, also a Christian, saying: ‘Your husband has followed the

religion of his brother, and we had warned you people to stop these activities, but our message has landed on deaf ears’....” (God’s promise to martyrs: Blessed is the man [or woman] that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him — James 1:12; and Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life — Revelation 2:10.)

AT LEAST 140 DEAD IN MULTIPLE ATTACKS ACROSS PARIS; FRANCE DECLARES

STATE OF EMERGENCY, SHUTS BORDERS

November 14, 2015 — The Times of Israel reports: “Some 140 people were killed in a series of unprecedented attacks around Paris on Friday, police said, according to French news agencies. French President

Francois Hollande closed the country’s borders and declared a state of emergency.

People died in shootings and explosions at multiple sites, some 100 of them in a popular concert hall where patrons were taken hostage and killed, police and medical officials said.

Reports from escaping hostages said gunmen were killing hostages in the theater one by one. They described carnage, with bodies strewn everywhere, and the attackers throwing explosives at the hostages. ‘Two to three people not wearing face masks went into the concert hall’ and opened fire. ‘They reloaded two or three times,’ said an eyewitness quoted on France 24 TV.

Police later stormed the venue and killed two gunmen....” (Islam’s murderers: This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come…evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived — 2 Timothy 3:1, 13; and Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth,

because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it — John 8:44.)

JORDAN’S KING ABDULLAH II: ‘WE ARE FACING A THIRD WORLD WAR’ AGAINST ISIS

November 18, 2015 — Breitbart.com reports: “King Abdullah II of Jordan said that the coming battles against the Islamic State (ISIS) terror group will be part of a ‘third world war against humanity,’ making remarks in the wake of the deadly ISIS-committed Paris terror attacks last week.

While on a State visit to Kosovo, Abdullah described the terror group as ‘savage outlaws of religion,’ adding that Islam was under assault by terrorists who seek to destroy its name.

‘This is a war, as I’ve said repeatedly, within Islam,’ the Jordanian leader said, adding, ‘And unfortunately over 100,000 Muslims have been murdered by [ISIS] alone over the past two years, and that doesn’t also count for the atrocities like-minded groups have also done in Africa and Asia’....” (Armageddon, Revelation 16:16, and World War III are one in the same. Every Bible prophecy concerning the most deadly war in history could begin at any moment as far as prophetic signs are concerned. See Ezekiel 38 and 39; Psalm 83; Isiah 13-23; Revelation 16:12, and Revelation 9:14-18 where the tragic results of Armageddon are mentioned.)
