All we can see in Israel since this Intifada began is a very tiny remnant of believers coming to Israel to demonstrate their support, such as “Women Aglow”. They are courageous women who were featured on Israeli news because they came to demonstrate their love and support of Israel and its Jewish citizens! These women – and the attendees of the “Feast of Tabernacles” celebration organized by the International Christian Embassy - were noted and appreciated in all of Israel!

Now I weep! I weep for the heartbreak, grief and sorrow of our people! I weep for the lies and slander spread abroad via the Media! I weep for the cowardice and callousness of the majority of Christianity! I weep for the many people who called themselves my “friends” and assured me of their abiding love, but whose friendship nor love has endured, except for a few! 

The apostle Paul knew the same sorrow, for from among the many fellow servants he had known and loved only one – Timothy – stood with him like a son with his father. All others forsook Paul for the love of this world²⁹. Yeshua was lied about, slandered and falsely accused, as was His bond slave, the apostle Paul. Israel is lied about, slandered and falsely accused, and I am sharing the same lot. For Yeshua’s defense only Nicodemus³⁰ stood up, and for Israel’s only a few Christian ministries and a courageous remnant of believers!

Then the Lord spoke into my weeping over the cowardice and faithlessness of these millions of so-called “co-heirs” and “fellow-citizens,” saying that their recompense was waiting for them. Because of it my work among them was not finished, but I must continue sounding the alarm, speaking the Truth in their hearing, warning them, calling them in His Name, that they may yet escape what is written in Revelation 21:8:

“But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, as for murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolators and all liars, their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death.”³¹  The Lord pointed out to me that the cowardly and faithless are mentioned first, even before the murderers and immoral, because they were lacking in faith and trust in G-d. And without faith it is impossible to please G-d³²! 

The Lord furthermore reminded me that those who stand not with Israel are ultimately not standing with Him! And those who cravenly lack in courage, passively looking on instead of standing actively with Israel are partners with those who curse Israel, and will share in their lot.

Beloved, for 20 years I have shared and taught pertaining to your place as fellow-citizens within the commonwealth of Israel, and exhorted and warned concerning indifference and passivity³³ with regards to your fellow-citizenship. I have written great volumes of letters, and my teachings were recorded and freely distributed to all who requested them. The four books the Lord gave me to write have been edited, re-edited and polished some more and await the Lord’s next move. And the web site of  “The Electronic Tabernacle”³⁴ is enjoying ever more visitors, many of them returning regularly. My e-mail boxes are bursting with inquiries and notes of appreciation and thanksgiving, although once in a while hate mail appears among them. Untiringly I have tried to bring you back, to restore you to the roots of your faith, to the original doctrine, teachings and understandings of the apostles and early disciples. And I warned you about those who would try to entrap you - Gentilizers as well as once again Judaizers - to rob you of both the riches of your salvation and of your freedom.

When the Lord brought me into active ministry in 1982, we who taught how the former Gentiles are made co-heirs and fellow-citizens with Israel, were still rather few. Today many carry the same message! There are a great number of trustworthy sources informing you about the events in Israel (most of these sources are mentioned and linked in the Or Tzion newsletters³⁵), even in light of prophetic Scriptures. G-d has raised up faithful messengers to warn and prepare you, teach and gird you up for the days ahead, lest you get caught unawares in the net of the great deception that is closing in on the nations without them realizing it.

Some have asked about my trip to France and what’s the story about Annelore’s “family book of generations?”

The whole, detailed Praise Report is at <http://www.ortzion.org/praise.html>

In 1966 my mother told me the story of the family book of generations: When the Nazis came to power in Germany my grandmother took my mother out of school and went into hiding. While hiding my mother was filled with traumatic fear of discovery. One day her father came visiting her. He told her and grandmother to be seated, then very solemnly put on his phylacteries and prayer shawl. Standing in front of mother, he kissed the book he had brought with him, spoke a prayer, opened it and said: “My daughter, that you may know that you have no reason whatsoever to be ashamed of your Jewish identity and heritage I will read to you now from this book. For this book is the evidence that your family is older and nobler than the oldest and noblest royal houses of Europe. May it help you carry your head high and not be dismayed or ashamed of your heritage, for your father’s house dates back to king David, being of the Wise Stock³⁶  of Solomon.”

He read for a long time, names after names after names. When he closed the book he told mother and grandmother that he would be joining family in Holland and take this book with him, guarding it with his life. But should he fall into the hands of the Nazis he trusted that G-d would then guard and keep the book.

In 1979 the Lord mentioned the book for the first time, saying that He has kept it just as He had done with the Dead Sea scrolls. He told me to look for it, and I have been gathering and putting together the puzzle pieces ever since. I learned that my grandfather had gone to France and been arrested and interned in camps there and then shipped off to Auschwitz. In September 2002 I went to France a second time to look for the book, in obedience to the Lord. Although the book was not recovered then, new and vital information came forth that requires follow-up, as well as documents which will stand in any court of law. A court order may be required to retrieve the book from France. 

Twenty years ago, the Lord proclaimed that I would win a court case, apparently in two goings, as Prophet Chuck Flynn proclaimed legal victory twice. 

G-d first closed the gap between my grandfather and me to establish my lawful rights as the only living grandchild and heir of my maternal grandfather. Not even the Chief Rabbinate in Israel can refuse me my rights clearly laid down in Torah³⁷.

Hence, with all the new information, addresses and documents I trust that the Lord will finally lead me to the book’s whereabouts. May He cause it to come into my [family’s] lawful possession at His appointed time, for which I covet your faithful prayers.

May the Lord guard, keep, shield and protect you this new year of 2003, bless and prosper you and preserve you in safety and health even if the times turn evil. And may your light shine brighter and brighter that by your brightness those lost in darkness may find their way into G-d’s salvation.

Yours in Yeshua,

Annelore
