“Claiming the Temple Mount”
by Art Sadlier   
August 3rd, 2009

2600 years ago Ezekiel foretold of a coming day when the enemies of Israel would claim both the Temple Mount and the Land of Israel for their own, (see Ezekiel 36:2,5). For 2600 years that had never happened, a prophecy unfulfilled. Wonder of wonders in this present hour that prophecy is being fulfilled. The God of the Bible, the God of prophecy is the God who knows the end from the beginning. He writes history before it happens!

In todays news Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayyad proclaimed historic Jerusalem an Arab capital.  He stated that control of the city must be granted to a future PA state. On Sunday PA negotiator Saeb Erekat said angrily, East Jerusalem is, and always will be, Palestinian. He went on to state that the entire city must under PA control. This comes inspite of the undeniable fact that there has never been a Palestinian state on the land of Israel at any time in History.

As if to add insult to injury, the Jewish government has tried to limit and hinder Jews from going up on the Temple Mount. While Jews are allowed to visit certain areas of the Temple Mount, under police supervision they are not allowed to pray or make any gestures expressing their Jewish faith. These limitations are imposed by the Israel government. On Sunday two Jewish young men were aressted by Israeli authorties for breifly kneeling to pray on the Temple Mount.

We are seeing the prophecies of Ezekiel fulfilled today, if this prophecy and many others are being fulfilled in our day we know that the remaining unfufilled prophcies will also come to pass.
