Terry James: Tracking toward the Tribulation Temple

Tracking toward the Tribulation Temple
Terry James



Stage setting for prophetic fulfillment surrounding all things Israel unfolds while we continue to examine developments on an hour-by-hour basis.

There continues to be constant intrigues involving interactions around and upon Moriah, with Muslim-Jewish contentions keeping an atmosphere for potential war brewing. Yet there is a drumbeat to produce peace, with hostile insistence at its core that Israel give in to enemy demands.

Incoming rockets, intended to weaken Israel’s resolve to resist the need to make peace, only hardens IDF dedication to punish the terrorist organizations. We get reports often of IDF forces taking out their leaders with precision drones and other strikes. Too many times, American mainstream media and left-wing political entities take the side of the Israel-hating enemies of the Jewish state.

Yet preparation continues for a time when, the religious factions in Israel believe, peace will reign and worship can again take place on the Temple Mount.

At present, that seems to be a pipe dream. Any such attempt to reestablish worship by the Jews on the Temple Mount would certainly bring down the wrath of all Islam. Yet the preparation continues.

The most previous Jewish Temple was destroyed in AD 70 when General Titus and the Roman legions tore down every stone of the structure. This was exactly as Jesus had foretold while teaching on the Mount of Olives. However, the Lord, while speaking during that discourse, indicated there will be a future Temple–the one the “abomination of desolation” (Antichrist) would sit in, declaring himself to be God.

So there must be a Third Temple—God Himself has said so.


We have watched developments, as stated above, intensely examining everything surrounding modern Israel. For example, we’ve seen that the implements of worship in that future Temple are already prepared. The red heifers have apparently been produced that will act as cleansing purification in the worship process. Even a rail system is in preparation that, the experts say, is meant to bring Jews in from around the world to the Temple Mount once the edifice is constructed.

11 Signs That Global Conflict Could Soon Spiral Completely Out Of Control

11 Signs That Global Conflict Could Soon Spiral Completely Out Of Control




The world seems to be gripped by a really bad case of war fever.  National leaders all over the globe are rattling their sabers, and that should deeply alarm all of us.  The last time that there was a “world war”, tens of millions of people died.  This time around, it could be hundreds of millions or even billions of people.  Today, we literally possess the ability to destroy all of humanity.  So a worldwide conflict in which nuclear weapons are used should be avoided at all costs, but unfortunately those that are running things seem absolutely determined to push us toward such a conflict anyway.

Over the past couple of weeks, there have been so many alarming developments.  The following are 11 signs that global conflict could soon spiral completely out of control…

#1 Russia just signed a deal to deploy tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus

The defense ministers of Russia and Belarus on Thursday signed a document on the deployment of Russian tactical nuclear weapons on Belarusian territory, the state-run TASS news agency reported, citing the Defense Ministry of Belarus.

Russia will retain control over its non-strategic nuclear weapons stationed in neighboring Belarus, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said at a document-signing event with his Belarusian counterpart Viktor Khrenin in Minsk.

“Russia will not transfer nuclear weapons to the Republic of Belarus: control over them and the decision to use them remains with the Russian side,” he said.


#2 U.S. and Taiwanese officials have reportedly been talking about bringing Taiwan under the “nuclear umbrella” of the United States.  Needless to say, such a move would make war with China much more likely…

There seems to be a growing demand for a US ‘nuclear umbrella’ in Taiwan amid increasing belligerence by China in the Asia Pacific region.

The desire for such a ‘nuclear umbrella’ against a potential invasion by China – which is already provided to Japan and South Korea by the United States (US) – has reportedly received support from defence experts in Taiwan.

The US ‘nuclear umbrella’ will not see the deployment of atomic weapons in Taiwan, but will see the world’s ‘sole superpower’ respond in kind to a nuclear attack by China during an invasion of the island nation.


#3 The Russians have just issued an arrest warrant for U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham…

Russia’s Interior Ministry on Monday issued an arrest warrant for U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham following his comments related to the fighting in Ukraine.

In an edited video of his meeting on Friday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy that was released by Zelenskyy’s office, Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, noted that “the Russians are dying” and described the U.S. military assistance to the country as “the best money we’ve ever spent.”



#4 A senior Taliban commander is boasting that “we will conquer Iran soon”

#5 Israel has doubled the number of attacks on Iranian targets inside Syrian territory in recent months

#6 Hezbollah just conducted major military exercises very close to the border with Israel

The military exercise was unusual not only because it was made public — nearly 400 people attended, including Hezbollah supporters and several journalists — but also because it was conducted only 12 miles north of the Israeli border, just outside an area where militias are not allowed to operate under a UN Security Council resolution adopted in 2006.

#7 Most Americans don’t realize this, but U.S. troops will soon be deployed in Peru
Unbeknown, it seems, to most people in Peru and the US (considering the paucity of media coverage in both countries), US military personnel will soon be landing in Peru. The plenary session of Peru’s Congress last Thursday (May 18) authorised the entry of US troops onto Peruvian soil with the ostensible purpose of carrying out “cooperation activities” with Peru’s armed forces and national police.

#8 Violent clashes in Kosovo have resulted in more than two dozen NATO troops being injured…

#9 The U.S. military is building a brand new base in northern Syria.  Apparently the U.S. occupation of large portions of Syrian territory is not going to end any time soon

The US-led anti-ISIS coalition is building a new military base in Syria’s northern province of Raqqa, The New Arab reported, citing a source close to the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

The US backs the SDF and keeps about 900 troops (officially at least) in eastern Syria, allowing the US to control about one-third of Syria’s territory. The report said there are currently about 24 US-led military sites spread throughout eastern Syria.

#10 North Korea is claiming that the U.S. and South Korea have just conducted an “invasion rehearsal”

The South Korean and U.S. militaries conducted large live-fire drills near the border with North Korea on Thursday, despite the North’s warning that it won’t tolerate what it calls an invasion rehearsal on its doorstep.

The drills, the first of five rounds of live-fire exercises through mid-June, mark 70 years since the establishment of the military alliance between Seoul and Washington. North Korea typically reacts to such major South Korean-U.S. exercises with missile and other weapons tests.


#11 Due to “security concerns”, dozens of “satellite phones for emergency communication” are being issued to members of the U.S. Senate…

Amid growing concerns of security risks to members of Congress, over 50 senators have been issued satellite phones for emergency communication, people familiar with the measures told CBS News. The devices are part of a series of new security measures being offered to senators by the Senate Sergeant at Arms, who took over shortly after the assault on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
The satellite phone technology has been offered to all 100 senators. CBS News has learned at least 50 have accepted the phones, which Senate administrative staff recommend senators keep in close proximity during their travels.

We have never seen such a dramatic measure ever be taken before.

Are they preparing for something?

But what I do know is that we are certainly living during a time of “wars and rumors of wars”, and it definitely isn’t going to take much to push us over a line that will never be able to be uncrossed.




DHS Warns Of Possible Church Attacks

'Heightened threat environment': DHS warns of possible church attacks



The Department of Homeland Security has, stunningly, issued a warning about possible attacks on churches heading into the 2024 election.

It has issued a new bulletin claiming that the U.S. now is in a "heightened threat environment."

"Lone offenders and small groups motivated by a range of ideological beliefs and personal grievances continue to pose a persistent and lethal threat to the Homeland. Both domestic violent extremists (DVEs) and those associated with foreign terrorist organizations continue to attempt to motivate supporters to conduct attacks in the Homeland, including through violent extremist messaging and online calls for violence," it warns.

"In the coming months, factors that could mobilize individuals to commit violence include their perceptions of the 2024 general election cycle and legislative or judicial decisions pertaining to sociopolitical issues. Likely targets of potential violence include U.S. critical infrastructure, faith-based institutions, individuals or events associated with the LGBTQIA+ community, schools, racial and ethnic minorities, and government facilities and personnel, including law enforcement."



The warning, oddly, came just days after reports revealed that the Joe Biden administration, through the DHS, was "doling out taxpayer money through an anti-terrorism grant initiative to a university program that has explicitly lumped the Republican Party, as well as Christian and conservative groups, into the same category as Nazis."

Media Research Center founder Brent Bozell released the findings. He explained MRC obtained documents under the Freedom of Information Act revealing a DHS program meant to fight terrorism was paying a group whose work has explicitly targeted the American political right.

The MRC concluded that the actions actually warrant a criminal prosecution.

"This terrorism task force is engaged in an active effort to demonize and eliminate Christian, conservative, and Republican organizations using federal taxpayer dollars," Bozell explained. "What we have uncovered calls for criminal prosecution. The American people need to know those who are abusing their positions in the federal government will be held accountable for their criminal behavior."

The report said DHS's Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention Grant Program provides funds to various public, private, and non-profit institutions — such as universities and county governments — "to establish or enhance capabilities to prevent targeted violence and terrorism." Grant applicants must be based in the U.S. and implement a U.S.-based program.

Among the grants awarded to the University of Dayton for its PREVENTS-OH program. That included charges, in its grant application, that lumped the "Republican Party, the Heritage Foundation, the American Conservative Union, Fox News, Breitbart News, the National Rifle Association, PragerUniversity, Tea Party Patriots, the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, the pro-police Blue Lives Matter movement, and the Christian Broadcasting Network" with hate groups like various neo-Nazi paramilitary groups and publications.

U.S. And Russia

U.S. and Russia


“‘Now grateful descendants have demolished monuments to Lenin in Ukraine. This is what they call de-communization. Do you want de-communization? Well, this quite suits us. But you must not stop halfway. We are ready to show you what genuine de-communization means for Ukraine,’ Putin said in his address to the nation over the situation in Ukraine’s southeast.”

By this, Putin meant he is ready to absorb all of Ukraine into Russia.  That’s what real “de-communization” would be, a hard statement.  He explained that Ukraine never really existed and was created by communist Russia.  He seems to make valid points in that regard.  However, Putin knows Ukrainian nationalism is real.  At one point during this war, he said their nationalism – their Ukrainian identity – should be respected.  He indicated again now that Ukraine should have remained part of Russia, subtly criticizing the Russian communists for separating Crimea and Ukraine from Russia.


Putin looks relaxed, very calm.  He thinks everything is going according to whatever his plans are.  We know what the Russian leaders think about the Western leaders and media (nothing good).  Lavrov called the sanctions “dumb” soon after they were enacted.  Surely, David Ricardo’s comparative trade theory was not dependent on the actual size of the world or planet.  The world can become smaller for Russia and it can still benefit from trade; it is large and rich enough that it could be a “small world” all by itself.  I thought it was helpful for Lavrov to say it, but he did not repeat it.  He must have wondered, “Why am I helping!”  

Russians must have seen the retired American Generals on television saying that Ukraine can defeat Russia in war (who I don’t see on TV as much lately).  It should be forbidden by law for Generals to put themselves on international television showing what they know and don’t know.  It’s unethical whenever their opinions are contradicting more measured declarations from authorities like Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and General Mark Milley.  The image of defense personnel is as important as the quality of weapons.

I think Russia is aware that Crimea is theirs now thanks to the policies and actions of “neocons”.  They criticize them for having provoked a coup and secession movements in Ukraine, without being able to mention what Russia gained from that.  After gaining Crimea, the richest parts of Ukraine, and of Europe, have been incorporated into Russia proper through conquest and referendums in the last 12 months.  Russia was already the richest country in natural resources and the biggest geographically.  Thus, there is no bigger ‘Russian’ than a ‘neocon’.


We know that this war could not be more important than it is to the Russian government. Is Article 5 of the NATO Treaty – that an attack against one member is an attack against all members – really “sacred”?  It is not safe or prudent to assume Russia believes that; it believes NATO is overextended and it doesn’t think much of the politicians and diplomats who believe it is as valid as 74 years ago.  It was signed in 1949 and much has indeed changed.  Russia’s vast arsenal of nuclear weapons affects the context of the treaty.  NATO extended itself to Finland and still wants to extend itself to Ukraine.  It makes no sense for nuclear superpowers to be adversaries post-communism.

The West looks oblivious to the fact that it is providing weapons for the express purpose of killing as many Russians as possible, and that killing and wounding Russians when they are not doing the same to you could provoke an in-kind reaction eventually.  The Russian population is angry because – as they themselves say – Western nations are killing Russian soldiers! 


 In time, Putin might feel great pressure to address this big issue; Russians may think, “Since when do you believe that you have a right to kill Russians while saying you are not at war with Russia?”  In an international forum a few weeks ago, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said something startling: that an outcome of this war needs to be that Russia is never able to do it again (invade). 


Victoria Nuland, Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, repeated the same point this past week and said it before too.  I think that they mean what they say.  This implies an outcome where Russia is completely defeated in war like Ukraine says that it will be.  It could mean that the Russian government will be replaced.  It could even mean that Russia will be split into parts.  It means very strong things.  They raised the Ukraine-Russia war to world war status, where Russia’s future is marked out like Hitler’s Germany was before the end of WWII.  On the other side, Russia and China say that a new world order is rising, but they don’t say that the United States must never again be able to invade anyone (probably in private they say that kind of thing).

The truth is that Ukraine has only been losing.  Declarations from Putin and Medvedev (Deputy Head of the Security Council) point now to Russia aiming at conquering all but the Western part of Ukraine.  It appears they might in the future be interested in bargaining over West Ukraine with the adjacent countries, Poland, Romania and Hungary (Polish and Romanian lands were ceded to Ukraine after WWII and from Hungary to Ukraine after WWI).


Russia still wants a negotiated end to the war, which could be used for leverage by the Biden administration.  Article 6 of Russia’s proposal to the United States says: “All member States of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization commit themselves to refrain from any further enlargement of NATO, including the accession of Ukraine as well as other States.”  Article 4 says:  “The United States of America shall not establish military bases in the territory of the States of the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics that are not members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, use their infrastructure for any military activities or develop bilateral military cooperation with them.”

Efforts To Stop UN World ‘Health’ Power Grab Accelerate

Undermining National Sovereignty: Efforts To Stop UN World ‘Health’ Power Grab Accelerate




Amid a major power grab by the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO) seeking to further empower the global agency, lawmakers and leaders across the United States are stepping up efforts to protect self-government, national sovereignty and the rights of all Americans. In fact, many in Congress and beyond say it is time for the U.S. government to defund and even withdraw from the WHO once again.

Last week, governments from around the world sent delegates to the annual World Health Assembly in Geneva. They will be meeting until May 30. The main objective of this year’s confab is to radically extend the organization’s power over healthcare and citizens under the guise of improving “health” and fighting future disease outbreaks in a coordinated global fashion. Critics say it is a dangerous plan to centralize power in a corrupt agency controlled by Beijing.

There are two primary methods of attack. First, using COVID and possible future pandemics as a pretext, the WHO is pushing for a new “International Pandemic Accord.” The scheme was being called a treaty until it became obvious to all involved it would never get two-thirds support in the U.S. Senate, as required for ratification of all treaties. The WHO hopes to have the details worked out by next year’s World Health Assembly.

The second prong in the attack involves amendments to the so-called International Health Regulations, or IHR. Because these are considered mere changes to an existing treaty, globalists at the WHO and in the Biden administration — not to mention the Communist Party of China lurking behind the scenes — also see this as a vehicle for empowering the global “health” apparatus without pesky interference from Congress.

But critics are working on ways to fight back. The Sovereignty Coalition, formed to fight the WHO assault on self-government, brings together a broad alliance of conservative leaders, organizations, and lawmakers united in the effort to preserve and restore national sovereignty. In fact, the coalition is calling for an American exit from the WHO entirely.

Signatories include hundreds of America’s most prominent conservative leaders as well as doctors and other medical professionals. Leading organizations in the medical freedom movement and the broader conservative movement also signed on including Daily Clout, Eagle Forum, Liberty Counsel Action, Tea Party Patriots Action, Women’s Rights Without Frontiers, ConservativeHQ, Act for America, and more.

Last week around 20 lawmakers and leaders held a press conference outside Capitol Hill calling for an end to the WHO’s scheming. Illinois’ own U.S. Representative Mary Miller, a Republican, was among those speaking out. “Our hard-earned taxpayer dollars should not support a globalist organization that is controlled by China, undermines our national sovereignty, and threatens our rights,” Rep. Miller said, echoing the concerns of many of her colleagues and constituents.

“President Trump made the right decision to cut all funding and participation in this organization, and it is foolish for the Biden Administration to place trust in an institution that repeated China’s deceptive narratives regarding the origins of the pandemic in Wuhan,” she added. “I stand proudly with my colleagues in calling for the United States to withdraw from the corrupt WHO. In Congress, I will always work to protect our nation’s sovereignty, preserve our rights and freedoms, and ensure the responsible use of taxpayer dollars.”

Speaking at the start of the WHO’s annual meeting, former communist terrorist and current WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus insisted that the organization needed even more power. “We cannot simply carry on as we did before,” said Ghebreyesus, who was installed with strongarm tactics by the CCP. “The pandemic accord that member states are now negotiating must be a historic agreement to make a paradigm shift in global health security, recognizing that our fates are interwoven.”


UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, former leader of the Socialist International global alliance of communist and socialist political parties, echoed the call for a stronger globalist regime. “I hope the current negotiations on pandemic prevention, preparedness and response result in a strong multilateral approach that saves lives,” said Guterres, who has also been a vocal advocate of the World Economic Forum-led “Great Reset” being opposed by countless millions around the world.

Blasting the WHO’s response to COVID, the Sovereignty Coalition said it was “outrageous” that the Biden administration was scheming to hand over even more power—without even Senate approval. “These accords would effectively repose in Dr. Tedros the authority unilaterally to dictate what constitutes an actual or potential Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) and to order how affected nations must respond,” the coalition said in a statement, noting that these authorities would purport to allow America’s enemies to deprive Americans of their rights.

In light of all the problems with the schemes being negotiated as well as the systemic issues plaguing WHO, the Sovereignty Coalition said enough was enough. “The United States must end its membership in, cease funding of and submitting to the World Health Organization before the WHO is granted the authority effectively to compel compliance with the public health dictates of Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus or any other unelected, unaccountable international bureaucrat,” the alliance declared.

At the state level, efforts to stop the WHO are gaining steam as well. A new bill in the South Carolina legislature, H.4246, would nullify the power grab by banning any state or local cooperation with the effort. “This is the rightful remedy,” SC Representative Josiah Magnuson told me, blasting the fact that Biden was not even planning to seek the advice and consent of the U.S. Senate as required by the Constitution of all treaties. “If this does go into effect, we’re going to have the framework here to resist.”
