ICHABOD The Glory of GOD Has Departed
Is the LORD GOD saying to the world church, I GIVE UP ON YOU?
The Bible calls Satan the great deceiver. To be deceived means to be led away from
the Truth without knowing it. Instead of having God's perspective, the person being
deceived has his own perspective.
Some pastors forget from where they came. They were once shepherds with small flocks.
The small flocks grew to become mega-churches until they were no longer a flock, but a
herd. They turned the church into a corporation, and had to operate like a corporation.
People in corporations are always looking for position. The only way one can be successful
in climbing the corporate ladder is to be loyal to the corporation and the corporate president.
(It has been said the Church is to be an ORGANISM, not an ORGANIZATION.)
When a Christian becomes more loyal to a man than to the Son of Man, spirituality can
soon turn into carnality, driven by the obsession for power, position and possession, a
ecipe for disaster. What once was a wonderful Spirit-filled church now becomes a machine
that simply goes through the motions. Everything looks like it is working.
However, the machine is broken.
When the Spirit Departs
In the Old Testament, the children of Israel as a nation knew the glory of God's presence
among them. They prospered and became strong as they followed the Lord. However,
Israel turned from God by making wrong choices. Eventually, they came to the place
where the presence of God was no longer among them. The glory of God had departed.
In a desperate attempt to win a battle with the Philistine army, Israel devised a plan.
The leaders actually believed that if they took the ark of the covenant with them to
battle that God was obligated to lead them to victory.
Such was not the case. God did not fight for Israel. Israel was defeated and the Philistines
triumphed and even took the ark. When a messenger returned from the battlefield with the
sad news that the army was defeated, the ark captured, and the two sons of Eli were dead,
Eli fell backward off his chair, broke his neck and died.
(Some prophets say false pastors will fall dead in their pulpits.)

Arab interests and safeguards the Palestinian, Syrian and Lebanese lands."
Annapolis your worse nightmare
Most of the Church remained silent when Hitler killed 6 million Jews. Today there are
6 million Jews living in Israel and once again the Church is silent while the same Evil
spirit seeks to destroy the Jewish people and the nation of Israel at Annapolis.
Bush forced 9,000 Jews out of their homes in Gaza in 2005, (accompanied by
God's judgment, Hurricane Katrina), creating a Hamas Terrorist State that is shelling
Israeli civilians with their rockets. The Annapolis meeting on Nov 27th is designed to
destroy Israel and we all know it, and Bush is forcing it on us.
The bush roadmap to Hell is no other than the Saudi Peace Plan with a new name.
This sellout of Israel started with Rabin and the Oslo accords. Jerusalem Post
headlines say "US to let Syria put Golan Heights on Annapolis agenda". Just
who is George Bush to allow a Country they consider part of the axis of evil to
come to this meeting and force Israel to talk about the Golan Heights?

State of Emergency in Lebanon Nov 24 Lebanon's President Emile Lahoud said the country is in a state of
emergency and handed security powers to the army before he left office without a
successor. Lahoud's final announcement created new confusion in an already unsettled
situation, which many Lebanese fear could explode into violence between supporters of
Prime Minister Fuad Saniora's Western-backed government and the pro-Syria opposition
led by the Shiite Hellzballah terrorists. Lahoud was a Syrian ally. Terrorists have blocked
legislators from electing a new president, leaving parliament without the required quorum.

Lebanese crisisNov 22 Israeli PM Olmert would be better occupied dealing with this new
security crisis on its borders, than posing with Mahmoud Abbas at a photo-op in
America. Candidates for Lebanon President have been dropping out after SYRAN
vetoed all 6. Tehran and Damascus have brought Hellzballah to the fore in Beirut to
sabotage the Annapolis conference to demonstrate IRAN is calling the shots in the
Middle East, not Washington.
The outgoing pro-Syrian president Lahoud will exit the Baabde palace Saturday, Nov. 24,
and transfer his powers to the Lebanese chief of staff Gen. Suleiman, who is
pro-Syria-Hellzballah, and does not have Lebanon interests at heart.
The army will then rally behind the Evil general rather than PM Siniora. This will leave
Siniora with the option of calling on Saad Hariri, Walid Jumblatt's Druze forces and
Samir Geagea's Christian Phalangists. These are ingredients for civil strife,
with the advantage held by SYRAN terrorists.
Lebanese crisis, debka Nov 22:

Mideast nuclear war:
Syria Nuke Plant UPDATE Nov 24 There is still no reliable information about the precise target that was
destroyed by the IAF strike in SYRIA Sept 6th. Israel believes the structure was a
plant for processing plutonium, a factory for assembling the bomb, even more
dangerous than a reactor. Judging from the leaks, a nuclear site built by Syria was
attacked, and there was some connection to North Korea.
The prevailing assumption is that it was a 5-megawatt nuclear reactor that would have
enabled Syria to produce plutonium to manufacture a nuclear bomb. Plutonium is one
of the most toxic and radioactive materials. One microgram can kill one person, and a
gram is capable of killing a million people. Syria has buried the entire site under piles
of earth because of the lethal nature of the material. Satellite photos of the site were
taken August 10, 2007 and reveal a structure built near the Euphrates River.

Sharif to return to Pakistan Nov 24 The situation in Pakistan just got much worse.
Former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif will try to return to Pakistan, his second
attempt since September. The last time Sharif tried to return from exile, he was quickly
deported by Musharraf. Sharif, leader of the opposition party, has been in exile in
Saudi Arabia. He was convicted of tax evasion and treason. Good match for the corrupt
Bhutto. His return comes a month after Benazir Bhutto, another opposition leader,
returned to Pakistan from exile. An attack on her motorcade in Karachi on the night
of her return on October 18 left at least 140 people dead.

The United States delivered an ultimatum to Musharraf after 911. Unless Pakistan
allowed US forces to take control of Pakistan nukes, the United States would destroy

weapons. In November 2007 there has been confusion on the subject of a jihadi
takeover of Pakistan's nuclear weapons. Stratfor

France Strike UPDATENov 23 Collapse of rail, subway strike is a success for French President
Sarkozy. The collapse of support for the strike by individual rail workers marks the first
success in the key goal of his presidency, the abandonment of expensive entitlements
and special conditions for public sector workers, including generous early retirement and
pension benefits for half a million rail workers, which he believes make France uncompetitive.
The strike of rail and subway workers that has crippled France for 9 days is crumbling,
as workers began returning to work in large numbers and union branches conceded that
support for the dispute is collapsing. Union leaders began to concede defeat. The strike
is not the solution. 42 out of 45 rail union committees have voted to abandon the national
strike that has frozen the country's economy, and will return to work without delay.

China - USA
China was going to prevent US ships from docking but changed their mind saying the
US carrier would be allowed to dock after all. "We have decided to allow the Kitty Hawk
to stay in Hong Kong during Thanksgiving. It is a decision based on humanitarian
considerations only."
Some 'christian?' broadcasters are STILL claiming a Chinese sub surfaced amid
US fleet in 2007. I reported a week ago that occurred in 2006. Christian news ought to
correct themselves, but do not. This link clearly states ... "Last year a Chinese submarine
surfaced uncomfortably close to the Kitty Hawk near the Japanese island of Okinawa"
Admiral Perplexed at Hong Kong snub
Adm. Timothy Keating, the top U.S. military commander in the Pacific said he's
perplexed and concerned by China's last-minute decision to deny Kittyhawk, a
US aircraft carrier, entry to Hong Kong for a previously scheduled port visit. They
were due to dock there for a 4 day visit. Hundreds of family members had flown to
Hong Kong to spend Thanksgiving with their sailors.
China later reversed its decision, but the notice came while the vessels were already
on their way back to their home ports. It was the second time in a week that China
refused to let U.S. Navy ships into the port. 2 U.S. minesweepers seeking to refuel
and shelter from bad weather in the South China Sea had asked for permission to
enter Hong Kong 3 or 4 days before the Kitty Hawk, and were denied.
ZionsCRY Comment
If China is advising their people to DUMP the US Dollar, turning away ships,
does anyone feel we are at WAR? The media in the USA have been attacking

666, WHO DO YOU WORSHIP?
If you worship ONLY GOD, the Lord Jesus Christ, you cannot take the
Mark of the Beast, which is clearly associated with WORSHIPPING SATAN
I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having 10 horns (OPEC?) and 7 heads with
blasphemous names. And the Dragon (Satan) gave him his power and his throne and
great authority. I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was
healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast.
They worshipped the Dragon because he gave his authority to the beast.
There was given to him a mouth speaking arrogant words and blasphemies, and authority
to act for 42 months. And he causes ALL (everyone on Earth) to be given a mark on their
right hand or on their forehead, and no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one
who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.
Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast,
for the number is that of a man, and his number is six hundred and sixty-six (666).
