Luke 11:17 But He knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and a house divided against itself falls. -Jesus
“I call on all the demonstrators in Jerusalem, from the right and from the left, to behave responsibly and not to act violently. We are brothers.” -Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
The issue of Judicial Reform is coming to a head in Israel. At the heart of the matter, does the Supreme Court of Israel have too much power? Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and some his supporters on the right say yes. There appears to be fractures on the right.
The opposition on the left says leave the status quo alone, no change. Reforms would damage democracy in Israel.
Sunday, March 26, 2023: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fires fellow Likud Party member and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. This happened one day after Gallant called for a pause in the judicial reform legislation.
“I see the source of our strength eroding. The growing rift in our society is penetrating the IDF and security agencies. This poses a clear, immediate, and tangible threat to the security of the state. I will not lend my hand to this. For the sake of Israel’s security, for the sake of our sons and daughters, the legislative process should be stopped now, to enable the nation of Israel to celebrate Passover and Independence Day together, and to mourn together on Memorial Day and Holocaust Remembrance Day.” -Yoav Gallant

As of this afternoon, Netanyahu agreed to stop reforms for now as protests continued in the hundreds of thousands across Israel. The judicial reform plan for this session of parliament has been postponed. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Prime Minister Netanyahu agreed to table the issue.
“There is one other thing that characterizes the judiciary in Israel and that is that the judges veto the appointment of judges, they effectively select themselves and that doesn’t exist in any democracy. The reform that we’re dealing with right now corrects that.” -Prime Minister Netanyahu, Piers Morgan Uncensored

Israel is ripe for a political leader who will bring unity and healing.
1 John 2:18 Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour.
Daniel 8:23-25 “In the latter period of their rule, when the transgressors have run their course, a king will arise, insolent and skilled in intrigue. His power will be mighty, but not by his own power, and he will destroy to an extraordinary degree and prosper and perform his will; he will destroy mighty men and the holy people. And through his shrewdness he will cause deceit to succeed by his influence; and he will magnify himself in his heart, and he will destroy many while they are at ease. He will even oppose the Prince of princes, but he will be broken without human agency”.
IF time is winding down and IF we are on the verge of His (Jesus) arrival, he (antichrist) is watching and he is scheming.
Be on alert. Pay attention. Think. Discern.
