This ministry has a distinct kingdom vision, identifying with God’s call and plan for Israel and the church. My position is pre-trib! I was saved in 1976 while working as a war correspondent, journalist, photographer, artist and environmentalist. My calling is to share with you the great end-time dramas, to stand as a watchman and above all, to glorify my God, to bless Israel and her people and the kingdom of God. |
►We have now reached 47 million regular visitors.
►Next Edition, Lord willing: "Meanderings and musings of my mind."
Why the pre-trib rapture is the only view that adds up and works.
- US Democratic Party diplomat calls for Nations with a Christian influence to come against Israel, saying “Jesus Christ came to save the whole world from the Jews...Jews are not chosen!”
- Report: “Obama tried to give the Golan to Syria.” But then came Trump who “gave” the Golan to Israel! And the difference is = The Bible!
- US Dems take followers further and further away from all things related to a nation under God.
- Russia warns Israel: "No more attacks on Syria or we will strike back."
Shabbat (Sabbath) begins on Fridays at 6pm and ends on Saturdays at 6pm. The purpose of this report is to help the church and Israel become reconciled in Messiah.

Shabbat Shalom to all!
War drums and trumpets:
Firstly I would like to really thank all those who have recently donated to this ministry. I must say I was amazed at the incredible response from so many. Thank you very much for your blessing to the kingdom of God, above all.
There’s a risk in giving out names that some will feel left out if I don’t name them. So please know that you are all being thanked and will be rewarded. You have encouraged me greatly with your gratitude. You are special! We go on to ever increasing glory!
I give you my assurance that I will continue to give you my best, in spite of wanting to go and live under a tree in the desert sometimes.
Please keep The Prophetic Scroll in your prayer, in that it stays open and unrestricted in these dangerous days. Also keep it as your essential go-to place for what is really happening, and for your deep spiritual growth.
The rumbling war drums:
Drum beats have many classifications. We have blues beat, disco beat, the jazz swing, the motown groove and more. But we also have a particular drum beat of war and battle. The drums of war actually originate from the repeating drum beat of the shaman or witchdoctor.
A certain drum beat would mean either dance or get ready for war. The drum beat would stimulate and strengthen the body and forge a sense of unity by the beat. They would unite the human and the spirit world. The drums of war were also referred to as the drums of death, especially when combined with trumpets.
I said all of that just for this: Can you hear the drums of war rolling? Can you hear the crescendo of drums and trumpets of great conflict echoing through the atmosphere?
This is where we are now. The drums and trumpets are only for those with ears to hear. Others would be wise to listen to those with ears to hear.
The terrible war machine of the nations is warming up to take control of the sleeping nations, who are led by the aged and wrinkled of mind, the pacifists and the true enemies of real liberty and freedom.
Russia is beating the war-drums as she threatens Israel with attack for attacking Iranian targets in Syria. Syria is beating new war drums covered with the ash of long-standing war. Iran is beating the war drum against Israel again, again, again!
Biden and his party are asleep to it all, including the blonde half-baked fairy from hell whose grand burning desire is to change the gender of kids.
It’s not just the US. Europe is worse in many areas.
It seems that insanity has suddenly been let out of the cage and is infecting the world so fast. Here is one of the succinct verses about those who have forsaken the Lord:
Deuteronomy 28:28 “The Lord will strike you with madness and blindness and confusion of mind.”
Why war?
In the old days we would fight over God’s creative beauty - a girl, and the girls would fight over us – Oh the good ole-days!
The bigger wars are fought over property, religion, political systems and the like. But there is really only one war that is of importance and that is the war to eliminate God’s beautiful creative purpose for Israel. It comes in many guises, but that is the underlying reason. It’s purely spiritual. It is the devil against God, at the end of the day.
So now we sit on the brink of war – the big one! Drums are rolling, trumpets are blowing and madmen from hell are arising, struck with blinding confusion and their weapons of annihilation tucked into their big-bird, metal wings.
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall; Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, because an atom bomb blew him to smithereens. And all the king’s horses and all the king’s men took seven years to clean up the remnants of poor Humpty. What fun!
I can hear the drums of drama but I also hear the trumpet calling me to go and live under a tree in the desert! (Move over lions.)
The great war for God’s son – Israel, is prophesied. (Exodus 4:22-23) It’s all getting pretty hot in here. You need to know these things. You need to know why all things and people of God are targets.
People with no knowledge of the living God are fools, and easy to manipulate and turn into cannon fodder for every dumb gun in town.
You need to be anchored in the truth.
True living is living in truth.
If you try to befriend Satan and appease him, and walk in peace with him, you will automatically, by default, set yourself up as an enemy of God and you will pay the price!
Yes, Israel will miss it again and fall under punishment again, but the most stupid thing you can do is come against Israel in the bigger, overall picture.
Biden prepares to “kill” the Second Amendment right to bear arms in the US. Israel observes and compares this to Haman’s actions to try to destroy the Jews. Biden befriends the enemies of the west and of Israel in Yemen and Iran steps right in!
There was a time when God overlooked the ignorance of stupid, dumb politicians and people, but that day is gone (Acts 17:30, Acts 14:16)
Here’s a verse that should blow a lot more than your socks off:
Esther 9:1-2 “On the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, the opposite occurred, in that the Jews themselves overpowered those who hated them...No one could withstand them because the fear of them fell upon all people.”
Take note, I say again take note, of the gravity of this verse above!!
The enemies of God and his son Israel, are united under Satan. The political parties, churches, inter-faith organisations and false religions of the world already have an unwritten unity between them – a hell bound unity!
The unity between true born-again believers is a unity based on truth and not lovey-dovey feelings.
As a believer, your culture must change! Your character and your personality must change as you grow in God. If not you will end up going with the flow of the wind.
Shalom...Joel
Edition 533: August 4th 2020.
TPS Peace Plan!
Introduction:
This is The Prophetic Scroll’s (TPS) Peace Plan for Israel, the Palestinians and the Middle East and ultimately the whole world. This is the TPS ‘Deal of the Century’!
It’s a play on the Trump / Kushner Deal of the Century, except this is no play. All of these things are of major importance now, because they are about to blast onto the scene.
There is a peace plan for Israel that will absolutely work. It is fully revealed in the Bible. The Prophetic Scroll’s peace plan is this biblical peace plan, nothing more or less.
The Trump ‘Deal of the Century’ contains many aspects of this biblical peace plan as we will see, and a few points that are not. The final antichrist peace plan will also contain many biblical aspects to it, because mixing truth with error is a method of deception.
It is important to know what brings trouble with God. Few people know these things.
My aim is for you to have some basic biblical understanding of these things, so that you will not be easily led astray. This is a playground of confusion.
Main points:
God’s plans for Israel are already blessed and successful and over 4000 years old!
Israel was created by God as a people for a purpose. The purpose was to be a separated, holy people taking the good news of salvation to the nations.
Israel disobeyed God, rejected the Messiah and was sidelined, as God moved to a new dispensation called the church. The church age is now just about over and God’s purpose for Israel will resume.
Due to these factors, the land of Israel is different, set apart and has a unity within it on these issues which creates strength and a defined purpose.
The dividing of the land of Israel is a major component of the peace plan.
The reason for the land to be essentially undivided is the same as the reason for the church to be united and not divided! (1 Corinthians 1:10)
There is strength in unity and weakness in division. The dividing of the church into factions, sects denominations, cults and more has weakened it.
The land and the city of Jerusalem are to be forever Israel’s because the Jews are called to return to a land friendly and protective of them, for their end-time purpose.
Control of Israel and the city must remain a sanctuary of protection and provision for the Jews even while in spiritual darkness. The land must remain a military stronghold and fortress against enemies.
The land and city is to remain Zionist and not Islamic. Zionism will soon be headed by Messiah Yeshua. Islam is and will remain headed by Satan.
Note in the verse below that God has blessed the Arabs too and made them a mighty nation with much land, but not in the land of Israel:
Genesis 17:19-20 “I will establish My everlasting covenant with Isaac and his descendents and as for Ishmael (father of the Arabs), I have blessed him and will make him fruitful and will multiply him exceedingly. I will make him a great nation. But My covenant I will establish with Isaac...”
Key points Of the Trump / Kushner Deal of Century:
●Israel retains 20% of the West Bank and loses a small amount of Negev Desert near Egypt. ●Palestinians get a pathway to their fragmented territories. Israel maintains control of all borders and military instillations. ●The Palestinians get a small part of land east of East Jerusalem, which is technically not inside the municipal boundary of Jerusalem, thus leaving Jerusalem undivided. ●Israel retains the Jordan Valley and the so-called settlements in Samaria, but Israel will not be able to build new homes here for the next four years. ●The Israeli Defence Force (IDF) will have unlimited access to and control of the settlements, right through to the Mediterranean. ●Israel is cleared to apply sovereignty to Judah and Samaria. ●The plan does not include an immediate Palestinian state but expects Israel to negotiate and plan for it which can only start in four years time on condition that Hamas and Islamic Jihad lay down their weapons. ●A limited number of refugees will be allowed to return but none into Israel itself. ●The plan provides for certain “swop” arrangements to be negotiated in time to come.
This plan does not come anywhere near the Daniel 9:27 peace deal.
The Deal of Century has one large looming omission. It has no leader, proposed or otherwise on the horizon.
This plan really does make the best of an already partially divided Israel. But it doesn’t meet all biblical requirements. To be accepted it would have to be re-negotiated.
Strangers in the night:
Micah 7:8-9 “Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; when I fall I will arise, when I sit in darkness the Lord will be a light to me...He will bring me forth to the light, and I will see His righteousness.
Isaiah 42:16 “I will bring the blind (Israel) by a way they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known, I will make darkness light before them and crooked places straight.”
In these two verses above we have the grand end-time theatre of God encapsulated.
But while Israel sits in her spiritual night, in the dark, strangers and foreigners have walked into the land. These strangers would be all immigrants, which would include the Arabs / Palestinians.
Ezekiel 47:21-23 “You shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel. You will divide it by lot as an inheritance for yourselves, and for the strangers who sojourn among you and who bear children among you. They shall be to you as native-born among the children of Israel. They shall have an inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel. And it shall be that in whatever tribe the stranger sojourns, there you shall give him an inheritance, says the Lord God.”
Leviticus 19:33-34 “If a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not mistreat him, but the stranger who dwells among you as one born among you, you shall love him as yourself; for you were strangers in the land of Egypt, I am the Lord your God.”
But, there are certain conditions upon the strangers / foreigners in the land:
Exodus 12:49 “One law shall be the native born among you and for the stranger who sojourns among you.”
Ezekiel 44:9 “Thus says the Lord God: ‘No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart or flesh, shall enter My sanctuary, including any foreigner who is among the children of Israel.” (No prominence of Islam!)
Isaiah 56:6-7 “The sons of the foreigner who join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants; everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, and hold fast My covenant, even them I will bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer...”
Deuteronomy 2:5 (To the children of Israel) “Do not meddle with them (Esau / Arabs) for I will not give you (Israel) any of their land, no, not so much as one footstep, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession.” (Mount Seir is in Jordan)
Here we see that it is fine for the land to contain some foreigners, but they are to fall under Israel’s jurisdiction, occupation, and to honour their host.
Today far too many Christian teachers and preachers are proclaiming that God brought the corona-virus (and other troubles) on the whole world because “Trump divided Israel.” They are all wrong.
Who divided the land?
Israel is already divided. It began with the children of Israel themselves.
Jerusalem has been seized, divided and destroyed many times. She has been destroyed twice, besieged and divided 23 times, attacked 52 times and captured 44 times.
Numbers 33:50-55 Instructions for the conquest of Canaan: “Moses, speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When you have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan, then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, destroy all their engraved stones, destroy all their moulded images and demolish all their high places...but if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall be that those who let remain, shall be irritants in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they shall harass you in the land where you dwell.
Take careful note of this most important verse above. It was the children of Israel themselves, in their disobedience to God, by not driving out those people, that we have the Palestinian problem today and the land and city problem.
One wonders why God did not blindly punish the whole word when Britain divided Israel, and the Ottoman Turks and Jordan!
I’ve said many times that the dividing of the land / peace treaty that is cursed occurs in the tribulation by the antichrist. (Joel 3:2, Daniel 11:21)
You can’t simply erase this history. It has to be taken into account in some way. But it must be in a godly way, preserving the integrity of Israel. Obedience to the mentioned verses about the “strangers” would resolve this.
The Peace Plan of The Prophetic Scroll:
Certain land can be used by foreigners. This would not be on a permanent ownership basis but something like a lease-hold arrangement, where Israel maintains overall ownership.
Israel is not to surrender any part of Jerusalem, defined by its borders to any ‘strangers.’ The Deal of the Century sets apart a small area outside the actual borders of Jerusalem.
Israel is to reclaim sovereignty over Judea and Samaria adding to the control of the Golan.
Israel must maintain all security endeavours including the military. There is to be no infiltration of Islam into Israel proper.
Israel is to be kind and helpful to ‘strangers in the land.’
Israel must beware of the ultimate goal and motivation of Islam, which is to destroy her, and take action where appropriate. Israel is to be the worst nightmare of Hamas, Hezbollah, the PA, and other Muslim-based terror organisations.
Israel is to ignore the threats of the world and call out to the Lord for ultimate protection.
Israel is unique among the nations and has a unique plan of God in the tribulation period.
Israel is to open her spiritual eyes!
Peace comes to Israel / Jerusalem as she opens her eyes to and follows her Messiah, our Messiah – the Prince of peace.
How Israel is to treat her enemies:
If you were honest with yourself and rightly discerned the wrong media, you would know that Israel does exactly as is revealed in the three verses below. Yes there are a few exceptions, but Israel is in fact one of the few nations that treats their prisoners well!
You won’t see this with your head in the mass-media toilet.
Exodus 23:4 “If you meet your enemy’s ox or donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again.
2 Kings 6:22-23 “You shall not surely kill them (enemies). Would you kill them that you have taken captive with your sword and bow? Set food and water before them that they may eat and drink and go to their master. Then he prepared a great feast for them...
Proverbs 25:21-22 “If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat, and if thirsty, give him water, for so you will heap coals of fire on his head and the Lord will reward you.”
Obviously military defence by Israel when attacked is legitimate. In fact from a point of view of international law, a nation is entitled to defend itself militarily even when constantly being threatened with annihilation, as is the case with Iran.
The mark of the mask:
The Nazi’s introduced the forcible wearing of a yellow cloth star by all Jews to identify and segregate them for discrimination and ultimately their deaths.
The wearing of virus masks today may or may not be effective, but it most certainly has been jumped on by the New World Order crowd as a control mechanism of sorts. This hasn’t fully flourished yet, but it’s on the way.
The masks are a subliminal prepping of the world for the transition of mask to mark of control, which will segregate people and set them apart for discrimination and death.
If you can’t see a coming, renewed Holocaust upon God’s people, which is where all these things are heading, you need to bang your head on the wall a bit to wake yourself up.
Revelation 13:16-18 “He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or foreheads and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who understands calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is 666.”
There has been so much speculation about the mark of the beast in the church. It will only appear in the tribulation period, where it will become a mark of identification with the antichrist of some sort.
There is more to it. Look at the words in bold in the verse above and note the words “or”. So it’s not just a mark. People will be given a choice of three things – a mark, or a name or a number.
So what could the three options be? Well, we don’t know yet, but it’s all very likely to be associated in some way with the virus and a coming vaccination.
At this point in time the wearing of masks, vaccinations and the like are not the spiritually charged mark, but it is all preparatory. The church will not be here to see it in finality.
All these things can and most probably will happen very fast and suddenly. I believe that a catalyst will be involved that we do not see yet.
Peace God’s way.
All the world’s troubles are not because Trump divided Israel. They are because Satan wants to stop God’s call upon Israel to salvation and as ministers of the good news to the world. They are because Satan wants to destroy God’s authority and replace it with his.
Yes, dividing the land is risky business, but as you see there is a godly side to the story as well. Peace comes when you do things God’s way.
Finally
What a shock to have murdered someone, only to see that person rise from the dead, turn to you, the murderer, and forgive you, and set you free from yourself, and then still give you great eternal rewards of pure glory.
Zechariah 12:10 “I will pour out on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication. Then they will look upon Me whom they have pierced and mourn for Him as for an only son.”
Now is the time of salvation. Do not wait! The sun is setting on this world!
Bear in mind that two out of ten spies were accepted. Five out of ten virgins were accepted and eight out of the world were saved in the ark.
The point is that a great many who think they are deserving of salvation will not be.
To find out more on salvation, have a look at the “Salvation” link on the right.
This is one of my elephant pictures, which I’ve spiced up with some added inserts.
Shalom and grow in His Grace!
