This is the third part of the Cataclysm in the Land of Israel series. In particular, Geoff considers the days of Herod leading up to the earthquake that takes place at the Crucifixion. In this presentation, Geoff includes an incredible timeline that brings together all the biblical and historical events into a consistent whole.
This is the second part of a series considering Cataclysm within the Land of Israel. It covers the major earthquake in the days of Uzziah (around 750 BCE).

In this talk, which is the first part of cataclysm within the land of Israel, Geoff briefly considers the crossing of the Jordan River in the days of Joshua as well as the Battle of Jericho. The remainder of this particular talk is a consideration of Elijah and his flight from Jezebel. He arrives at Sinai and hides in a cave. While he is there, there is a powerful wind, an earthquake and fire before the Lord instructs Elijah to go to Damascus. As an epilogue, Geoff compares the situation of Donald Trump to that of Elijah. He tries to answer the question “what if”. At the time this talk was given, it seemed likely that Donald Trump would be re-elected. The “what if” has become a reality.
Among the sand dunes of history formed by forces of powerful winds of doctrine, is an imprint which the Messiah of Israel left on the world. Truth demands the re-discovery of His roots, and the story of His earthly life which should be given back to the world to remember Him for who He was and forever shall be: a Jew!
It is the responsibility of those who see Him as He is from the Scriptures, to share the centrality of His connection to Israel during the “restoration of all things.” (Acts 3:21) The real Jesus will bring into the light His true identity as He returns home to His People.
It is a bona fide fact that “a chain is only as strong as its weakest link,” a figurative phrase coined around the 18th century.
Christianity’s root system requires strong, healthy growth to be developed. Staying attached to the part of the tree that attaches it to the ground–supporting from underground–helps retain the spiritual richness of its origin. Christendom may not be as strong as it looks in view of the fact that it has a missing link in its tenets of faith.
I listened to a newscast recently where a man had spent twenty years in prison for a crime he did not commit. His reputation had been harmed and his name desecrated. While interviewing the man, a reporter asked how the lengthy prison sentence had affected him. His response was “it stole the perception of who I am — your name is your identity.”
War is the waging of armed conflict against an enemy. Jesus told us “…and you shall hear (learn of, find out about and be informed) of wars and rumors (reports and accounts) of wars: see (see to it) that you are not troubled (anxious, concerned, or worried): for all these things (all these events) must come to pass (they must happen and take place) but (quite the opposite) the end (the finish, the conclusion) is not yet!”. (Matthew 24)
