ISRAEL FIRST! The Key to Understanding the Blood Moons, Shemitah, Promises to Israel, the Coming Jubilee, and How it all Fits Together

Israel FIRST! is the book that reshaped the thinking of the Blood Moons, Shemitah and Jubilee. Israel FIRST! stood out amongst the foreboding and proclaimed God s hope in the Blood Moons, God s patience in the Shemitah cycle, and God s restoration in the Coming Jubilee. Why has this book predicted so many events so accurately so far? Perhaps because the authors decided to view events through the lens of Israel first, a novel approach it introduces to the world. The book represents the first time an Orthodox Jew from Israel and an American Christian have co-wrote a book on Christian prophecy. They even offered to grade their predictions publicly and to learn from mistakes. Israel FIRST! stood against apocalyptic fears and said the Blood Moons are good for Israel, a sign of God s covenant love throughout history, and suggested no major Israeli war was coming just yet. They were right. Israel FIRST! says the Shemitah theory has merit, but predicted no Wall Street meltdown in Fall 2015. They were right. The book proposed a new sobering perspective on Shemitah from Leviticus they call God's Seven Year Forecast, showing the exact judgments God will bring upon America if it does not repent. They said the first indication of this idea would be a dramatic increase in terrorism in Fall 2015. They were right. Israel FIRST! says that the blessings and curses God spoke over Abraham are still in force today. It asks and answers what specific Presidential actions might unleash a curse today. It also offers a new idea regarding a 1929 Jewish Immigration law it says might have cursed the USA and triggered The Great Depression. Israel FIRST! finally asks if we have just entered a new Jubilee year, by showing the amazing pattern of God s work in Jerusalem in 1917 and 1967. It predicts how Israel and the world might change in a Jubilee year. The book is amazingly relevant with many of its remaining predictions coming due in 2016 and 2017. Over fifty predictions and scores of new ideas summarized in its appendices for easy reference.
