The single most electrifying message he’s ever preached ...<br />
can be YOURS on DVD!<br />
I give all the glory and<br />
honor to my Lord and<br />
Savior Jesus Christ<br />
when I look over the course<br />
of my lifetime in ministry and<br />
realize that, almost certainly, no<br />
one other than Billy Graham<br />
has preached “live” to more<br />
people than this plainspoken<br />
accordion-playing child of an<br />
alcoholic father from Michigan<br />
... a man simply named <strong>Jack</strong> ...<br />
<strong>Jack</strong> <strong>Van</strong> <strong>Impe</strong>!<br />
This is not a matter of my<br />
being “better” than anyone else;<br />
no way! As the apostle Peter<br />
declares in Acts 10:34-35, “God<br />
is no respecter of persons: But<br />
in every nation he that feareth<br />
him, and worketh righteousness,<br />
is accepted with him.” I have<br />
simply dedicated my entire life<br />
to “working righteousness” for<br />
the sake of being “accepted with<br />
him” — obeying the leading<br />
of the Lord with every ounce<br />
of energy, every fiber of my<br />
being! I have memorized 15,000<br />
verses of the Bible. I have<br />
spent more than 100,000 total<br />
hours of my life in Bible study<br />
(the equivalent of 11 years of<br />
continuous study). I have read<br />
more than 11,000 books. And<br />
using this willing vessel, God<br />
does supernatural work! In my<br />
lifetime I have preached in more<br />
than 800 week-long evangelistic<br />
crusades in various churches. I<br />
have proclaimed the Gospel in<br />
253 city-wide crusade meetings.<br />
The cumulative attendance at all<br />
of these evangelistic outreaches:<br />
10 million people. I praise God
4 | Perhaps Today | July–August 2010<br />
that during my six decades of<br />
ministry, we have witnessed<br />
the salvation of two and a half<br />
million souls!<br />
But <strong>today</strong> — with our<br />
commitment to you, Beloved,<br />
through television, and to lost<br />
souls around the world — it is<br />
impossible for me to preach<br />
“live” and in person week<br />
after week. Production of<br />
the television program takes<br />
an extraordinary amount of<br />
time weekly, but we faithfully<br />
give ourselves to this process<br />
because our television ministry,<br />
which reaches you and millions<br />
upon millions of others, is<br />
simply the most effective and<br />
efficient way to reach so many<br />
people. In fact, I only allow<br />
myself to schedule an in-person<br />
appearance one time in each<br />
calendar year.<br />
I want you to experience that<br />
one amazing “live” ministry<br />
event for 2010 — through video!<br />
I was invited to preach to<br />
the jammed 5,000-seat World<br />
Harvest Church, led by Pastor<br />
Rod Parsley in Columbus,<br />
Ohio. This was an incredible<br />
evening of Holy Spirit anointing<br />
and power! I have truly never<br />
experienced such an electrifying<br />
move of God!<br />
But also — you know how I<br />
love humor. Well, as you will<br />
see on the DVD of this service,<br />
Pastor Parsley and I began the<br />
evening with a rip-roaring 20<br />
minutes of humor together!<br />
And then — for one solid<br />
hour — I proclaimed Christ’s<br />
return. I presented a whirlwind<br />
panoramic view of prophetic<br />
events unfolding all around us!<br />
I want you to experience this<br />
message — but also share it<br />
with unsaved loved ones. In it, I<br />
answer such questions as:<br />
• How can I know I’m ready for the<br />
Rapture?<br />
• How can I know when the Lord<br />
will return?<br />
• How do Israel, Russia, China,<br />
Iran, and the European<br />
Union each fit into the most<br />
monumental upcoming battle in<br />
history?<br />
• How is the new world<br />
government fulfilling prophecy?<br />
• How many verses of the Bible<br />
talk about the return of the Lord?<br />
(This will shock you!)<br />
• What are the 21 judgments?<br />
• What are the six “predicting<br />
signs”?<br />
• What does it mean to be “pretrib”?<br />
• What exactly is the Rapture?<br />
• What happens right after the<br />
Rapture?<br />
• What have scholars predicted<br />
about the latter days we’re living<br />
in <strong>today</strong>?<br />
• What is I Thessalonians 4:16-18<br />
describing when it says, “For the<br />
Lord Himself will descend from<br />
heaven with a shout, with the<br />
voice of an archangel, and with<br />
the trumpet of God. And the<br />
dead in Christ will rise first. Then<br />
we who are alive and remain shall<br />
be caught up together with them<br />
in the clouds to meet the Lord in<br />
the air. And thus we shall always<br />
be with the Lord. Therefore<br />
comfort one another with these<br />
words”?<br />
• What is the “abomination of<br />
desolation”?<br />
• What is the “Club of Rome”? Why<br />
are they creating divisions of<br />
the nations, and how is this<br />
significant in fulfilling prophecy?<br />
• What is the imminent timetable<br />
for implanting a microchip under<br />
the skin of every human being by<br />
law?<br />
• What is the meaning of I<br />
Corinthians 15:51,54? “Behold,<br />
I tell you a mystery: We shall<br />
not all sleep, but we shall<br />
all be changed.... So when<br />
this corruptible has put on<br />
incorruption, and this mortal has<br />
put on immortality, then shall be<br />
brought to pass the saying that is<br />
written: ‘Death is swallowed up<br />
in victory.’”<br />
• What is the next thing on God’s<br />
calendar?<br />
• Which biblical predictions must<br />
happen before the Rapture can<br />
occur?<br />
• Who are the Bilderbergs? How<br />
are they connected to the coming<br />
microchip law?<br />
• Will believers go through the<br />
Tribulation?<br />
• Will I have a new body in<br />
heaven?<br />
• Will the world really end as some<br />
say?<br />
• And many, many more — an<br />
astonishing hour-long torrent of<br />
fascinating prophetic truths!<br />

The Shepherd<br />
Perhaps one of the biggest misconceptions a<br />
person can have when he becomes a Christian is that<br />
everything is going to be fine now — sunshine and<br />
roses, a gentle stroll on a smooth, safe road that winds<br />
its way through heaven’s gates.<br />
But the world we live in can be a very hostile place,<br />
and the highway to heaven is often a narrow, uphill<br />
path, filled with rocks and obstacles, beset with<br />
difficulties on every hand.
By Dr. Rexella <strong>Van</strong> <strong>Impe</strong><br />
the rough spots. When I am<br />
unsteady, His hand gives me<br />
support. When I grow weary,<br />
I can lean on Him to make it<br />
to a place of rest. He is always<br />
with me! I am never alone! Let<br />
the searing heat of the sun beat<br />
down, or the howling winds and<br />
the drenching rains of adversity<br />
assail — I am sheltered in the<br />
arms of God!<br />
July–August 2010 | Perhaps Today | 7<br />
Therefore I take pleasure in<br />
infirmities, in reproaches, in<br />
necessities, in persecutions,<br />
in distresses for Christ’s sake:<br />
for when I am weak, then am I<br />
strong (verses 9-10).<br />
In good times and bad times,<br />
when the road is smooth or<br />
rough, the Shepherd is with us,<br />
providing strength for the day<br />
and grace for the journey. <strong>Jack</strong><br />
on a Dangerous Road<br />
Jesus said, Enter ye in at<br />
the strait gate: for wide is the<br />
gate, and broad is the way,<br />
that leadeth to destruction,<br />
and many there be which go<br />
in thereat: because strait is the<br />
gate, and narrow is the way,<br />
which leadeth unto life, and few<br />
there be that find it (Matthew<br />
7:13-14).<br />
Wait a minute — what’s<br />
the deal? I come to Jesus<br />
expecting to be led on an easy<br />
path. Instead I find myself on<br />
a rough trail over treacherous<br />
terrain, with no other road<br />
so dangerous. What benefit<br />
or advantage is mine as a<br />
Christian? Ah, here it is, in<br />
Hebrews 13:5 — for he hath<br />
said, I will never leave thee, nor<br />
forsake thee.<br />
We are never alone<br />
The road may be narrow, but<br />
it is wide enough for Jesus, the<br />
Great Shepherd, to walk along<br />
beside me and guide me gently<br />
over the rugged pathway. When<br />
I feel weak, He lifts me over<br />
There may be times when<br />
I feel as strong and agile as a<br />
mountain goat, bounding up the<br />
pathway, dancing across narrow<br />
ledges over deep crevices. Then<br />
the Shepherd stays with me<br />
step for step, rejoicing in each<br />
victorious move I take. And<br />
when exuberance drives me to<br />
walk too closely to the edge and<br />
deliberately wander into harm’s<br />
way, His staff firmly directs me<br />
back upon the solid rock.<br />
On other days my feet may<br />
be clumsy, stumbling over the<br />
smallest pebble on the roadway,<br />
tripping over the tiniest crack.<br />
And my strength may fail before<br />
the day is half done. But my<br />
companion on the road, the<br />
Great Shepherd, is close at<br />
hand. Can you hear His words<br />
of encouragement? Listen! My<br />
grace is sufficient for thee: for<br />
my strength is made perfect in<br />
weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).<br />
Oh, my soul cries out with<br />
the Apostle Paul, Most gladly<br />
therefore will I rather glory in<br />
my infirmities, that the power<br />
of Christ may rest upon me.<br />
and I receive many letters and<br />
e-mail messages from friends<br />
across this country and literally<br />
from all over the world who<br />
are seeking prayer. The needs<br />
and problems they share are<br />
absolutely overwhelming.<br />
A young man struggles to<br />
overcome his addiction to<br />
drugs ... a single mother tries<br />
to be both mother and father to<br />
her children and earn enough<br />
to keep them fed, clothed,<br />
and sheltered ... a despairing<br />
husband watches his companion<br />
of 40 years being dragged into<br />
the darkness of Alzheimer’s<br />
disease ... many families are<br />
victims of unrelenting financial<br />
pressure.<br />
What can you say to people<br />
with such great hurts and<br />
sufferings? How about: ... with<br />
God all things are possible<br />
(Matthew 19:26). And: ... lo, I am<br />
with you always, even unto the<br />
end of the age (Matthew 28:20).<br />
Truly those are great promises<br />
of faith and strength to hold on<br />
to in times of trouble.<br />
But here’s one that speaks
8 | Perhaps Today | July–August 2010<br />
even more eloquently to the<br />
troubled heart — Now unto him<br />
that is able to keep you from<br />
falling.... (Jude 24). Do you<br />
grasp the profound message of<br />
those simple words?<br />
The Shepherd keeps<br />
us from falling<br />
When hope is gone and<br />
strength has failed, He is able to<br />
keep you from falling.<br />
When sorrow and sadness<br />
have bowed you to despair, and<br />
you are ready to cast yourself<br />
down in the pit — He is able to<br />
keep you from falling.<br />
When you have exhausted all<br />
resources, and the enemy of<br />
your soul is closing in for the kill<br />
— He is able to keep you from<br />
falling!<br />
When the toils and trials of<br />
this world have ground you<br />
down, and you barely have<br />
enough strength left to take one<br />
more step — He is able to keep<br />
you from falling.<br />
The Great Shepherd will not<br />
let you fall! He will assist you,<br />
calm you, support you, protect<br />
you, sustain you, shelter you,<br />
nourish you, and lift you up. Oh,<br />
yes, life ultimately will take you<br />
to the place where you must<br />
walk through the valley of the<br />
shadow of death. There is no<br />
way to avoid that pathway. But<br />
you can walk into the darkness<br />
unafraid, fearing no evil. Why?<br />
Because the Good Shepherd<br />
is with you, comforting you,<br />
anointing you, making a way for<br />
you where there seems to be no<br />
way.<br />
Do you have that kind of<br />
relationship with God, the<br />
Shepherd? Have you ever<br />
exclaimed, with David, But as<br />
for me, my feet were almost<br />
gone; my steps had well nigh<br />
slipped (Psalm 73:2)? Of course,<br />
you have. How did you make it<br />
then, and how will you make it<br />
<strong>today</strong> and tomorrow? My flesh<br />
and my heart faileth: but God<br />
is the strength of my heart, and<br />
my portion for ever (verse 26).<br />
Some people are reluctant to<br />
give their hearts to God because<br />
they are afraid that living for<br />
Him will be too hard. They are<br />
afraid to set out on that narrow<br />
road for fear that they will<br />
stumble and fall. At first it seems<br />
so much easier to walk on the<br />
world’s broad road. But too<br />
soon that thoroughfare leads to<br />
destruction.<br />
When the devil’s easy road<br />
begins breaking up, where do<br />
its sojourners turn for help?<br />
There is no one. When illness<br />
strikes, there is no healer. When<br />
heartache devastates travelers<br />
on Broad Avenue, there is no<br />
comforter, no one to talk to.<br />
When trouble crashes down on<br />
every side, there is no place to<br />
turn for help.<br />
Through the straight gate<br />
and on the narrow road, the<br />
thirsty are led beside still<br />
waters and the despairing<br />
receive restoration for their<br />
souls. And the one who<br />
wanders astray is<br />
rescued by the<br />
Shepherd, who<br />
picks up the lost<br />
and carries him<br />
back to safety.<br />
In our<br />
journeys<br />
to the Holy
Land, and in other parts of<br />
the world as well, <strong>Jack</strong> and I<br />
have had occasion to observe<br />
modern-day shepherds still<br />
performing their age-old duties.<br />
We’ve photographed herds of<br />
sheep grazing peacefully in the<br />
meadows under the watchful<br />
eye of their keeper. We’ve seen a<br />
shepherd, staff in hand, leading<br />
a flock over a high mountain<br />
pass to a hidden field of lush<br />
vegetation on the other side.<br />
And on occasion, approaching<br />
some small village, we’ve had to<br />
stop our vehicle and wait while<br />
a shepherd led his sheep across<br />
the dusty road and up into the<br />
safety of the waiting fields.<br />
I’ve always been impressed<br />
by how much the sheep seemed<br />
to trust the shepherd. They<br />
would stay with him, follow<br />
him, and obey his commands.<br />
They depended on the shepherd<br />
to provide for their needs and<br />
to keep them safe. Experience<br />
soon taught them that the<br />
shepherd always knows the<br />
way to the green grass, the still<br />
waters, and the place of refuge<br />
from the predators of life.<br />
I’ve also noticed that<br />
shepherds are constantly talking<br />
to their sheep. Walking along<br />
the road, they call out words<br />
of encouragement, direction,<br />
sometimes a warning! In quiet<br />
times, they tend to little lambs<br />
or to a sheep with a hurt leg,<br />
speaking quietly and lovingly.<br />
The Bible tells how little David<br />
used to sing to his sheep,<br />
perhaps sharing some of the<br />
beautiful psalms he composed.<br />
The point is that the sheep<br />
soon know and recognize the<br />
voice of their shepherd. Jesus<br />
said that when a shepherd goes<br />
before his flock, the sheep follow<br />
him: for they know his voice<br />
(John 10:4). And He said, I am<br />
the good shepherd (John 10:11).<br />
Do you know His voice? When<br />
He speaks, do you recognize the<br />
tone and timbre of His voice on<br />
those dark nights on the lonely<br />
road of life? For that to happen,<br />
you must be listening to His<br />
voice in the clear light of day ...<br />
every day.<br />
Listen to the Great<br />
Shepherd<br />
How do you recognize God’s<br />
voice? Every time you open the<br />
Bible, God’s Holy Word, He is<br />
speaking to you. Meditating on<br />
what you read<br />
in your daily<br />
devotions is a<br />
means of listening<br />
for His voice.<br />
As you develop<br />
a daily habit of<br />
delving into the<br />
Word of God,<br />
you will begin to<br />
see how the Holy<br />
Spirit guides you<br />
and imparts instruction to you.<br />
Prayer is important, too —<br />
especially when you learn that<br />
prayer isn’t you doing all the<br />
talking, but taking time to listen<br />
as well. Also, I’ve found that<br />
prayer time is enriching when I<br />
talk to God — out loud, for me<br />
— about what I’ve been reading<br />
in His Word. It’s sort of a way<br />
for me to keep “chewing” on the<br />
Word, much as sheep and cattle<br />
stand and chew their cud.<br />
Thy words were found, and I<br />
did eat them; and thy word was<br />

Rexella,<br />
I’ve watched your show and I am<br />
so blessed to have been able to catch<br />
it one night flipping through the<br />
channels. God bless you and <strong>Jack</strong> for<br />
what you do spreading the Word of<br />
our God and Savior, Jesus Christ. I’ve<br />
received Him as my Savior, thank you.<br />

unto me the joy and rejoicing<br />
of mine heart (Jeremiah 15:16).<br />
If you haven’t discovered this<br />
source of daily blessing, I highly<br />
recommend that you give it a<br />
try!<br />
How’s your journey along<br />
life’s narrow way? Are you well<br />
aware that you are traversing<br />
a dangerous road, depending<br />
on the care and guidance of the<br />
Shepherd? Do you live each day<br />
in “joy and rejoicing” because<br />
of the ministry of God’s Word in<br />
your life? Have you discovered<br />
that come what may, He walks<br />
beside you and His goodness<br />
and mercy are following you all<br />
the days of your life?<br />
The psalmist declared,<br />
Thou shalt guide me with thy<br />
counsel, and afterward receive<br />
me to glory (Psalm 73:24).<br />
There is nothing we need<br />
beyond that!

“HATESpeech”<br />
That’s not what I call it<br />
...because that’s not what<br />
God’s Word says!<br />
By Dr. <strong>Jack</strong> <strong>Van</strong> <strong>Impe</strong><br />
“Hate speech.”<br />
That’s what it will soon be called<br />
when I preach the truth stating:<br />
“Jesus is the way, the truth, and the<br />
life, and that no man comes unto the<br />
Father but by Christ.”<br />
The Bible says it, and I have preached it for<br />
decades.<br />
I will continue to preach it regardless<br />
of any persecution that may come<br />
because of recent threats I have<br />
received.<br />
But Israel My Glory magazine<br />
recently made this disheartening<br />
observation: If present trends<br />
continue, it will soon be<br />
illegal to say that Jesus is<br />
the only way of salvation.<br />
Franklin Graham, Billy’s son,<br />
also reported to America of<br />
the present administration’s<br />
canceling of his speaking<br />
engagement at the Day<br />
of Prayer because of his<br />
outspokenness about<br />
Muslims after the disaster<br />
of 9/11.<br />
It is far more than simply<br />
one magazine’s editorial<br />
opinion. On Newsmax.tv,<br />
and on the Mike Huckabee<br />
program on the Fox
12 | Perhaps Today | July–August 2010<br />
News Channel, where the<br />
Rev. Franklin Graham was<br />
recently interviewed, he stated:<br />
“My invitation to speak on<br />
the National Day of Prayer<br />
was revoked by the Pentagon<br />
because of pressure by anti-<br />
Christian groups.” In USA<br />
Today, the Muslims took credit<br />
for making it happen.<br />
“Oh, no question. It’s coming,”<br />
Graham said. “...When you<br />
preach that Jesus Christ is the<br />
way, the truth, and the life, I<br />
think we’re going to see one day<br />
that people will say, ‘This is hate<br />
speech, because you’re being<br />
so narrow and you’re excluding<br />
other people.’ I believe that, I<br />
think we’re going to see that<br />
come.”<br />
My heart is breaking for my<br />
country. To see America turn her<br />
back on God is devastating.<br />
I wish I could say our leaders<br />
are striving to resist the tide.<br />
But tragically, this turning away<br />
from God is keenly evident at<br />
the highest level of American<br />
government. The awful truth<br />
is revealed in a new book<br />
and DVD combination —<br />
Radical Rulers: The White<br />
House Elites Who Are Pushing<br />
America toward Socialism<br />
plus The Obama White House<br />
Radicals. These resources are<br />
so critically important to every<br />
Christian in North America that<br />
I have arranged for <strong>Jack</strong> <strong>Van</strong><br />
<strong>Impe</strong> <strong>Ministries</strong> to make them<br />
available — I urge you to request<br />
them <strong>today</strong>. In this volume and<br />
this video presentation, you will<br />
see for yourself what is sadly<br />
unique about the Administration<br />
of Barack Obama compared to<br />
every President in U.S. history:<br />
the sheer number of radical<br />
people he has assembled at very<br />
high levels of decision-making<br />
power. It is not unreasonable<br />
to say that Barack Obama is<br />
actually the most radical leader<br />
ever to sit in the White House.<br />
In less than 18 months in office,<br />
he has surrounded himself with<br />
what can easily be described<br />
as the most radical group of<br />
advisors of any Administration<br />
in American history —<br />
“Hate speech”? No. This<br />
is a message of love and<br />
redemption, of salvation<br />
and peace.
including Communist<br />
sympathizers, pro-abortionists,<br />
pedophile sympathizers,<br />
and socialists. His record<br />
of controversial high-level<br />
appointments is unprecedented<br />
(a number of them deviously<br />
appointed outside the<br />
constitutional system, to avoid<br />
the need for approval by the<br />
Senate) — and these appointees<br />
are poised to radically change<br />
America.<br />
This should come as no<br />
surprise. During the election<br />
campaign, Obama repeatedly<br />
insisted, “We are going to<br />
change this country and change<br />
the world. We need change,<br />
real change, now.” This very<br />
claim is found on almost every<br />
page of Rules for Radicals: A<br />
Pragmatic Primer for Realistic<br />
Radicals by the notorious Saul<br />
Alinsky. Alinsky talked change<br />
but meant revolution — a<br />
socialist communist revolution!<br />
The tragedy unfolding in<br />
America <strong>today</strong> dovetails<br />
precisely with Bible prophecy.<br />
As I have consistently taught,<br />
from the pages of God’s Word,<br />
regarding the signs of the times,<br />
God’s latter-day clock is ticking,<br />
Jesus is coming soon — and one<br />
of the final signs will be this: a<br />
great charismatic leader will<br />
move into position as dictator<br />
of the New World Order.<br />
Now we see some prominent<br />
figures observing that Barack<br />
Obama, from the time he was<br />
a young man, was groomed to<br />
become the leader of a New<br />
World Order. Simultaneously,<br />
we have witnessed, in just in the<br />
past several months, the single<br />
biggest move toward socialism<br />
and globalism in the history<br />
of the United States. Events<br />
are aligning with astonishing<br />
precision — multiple prophecies<br />
being fulfilled simultaneously,<br />
beyond anything that anyone<br />
could engineer, or even imagine!<br />
Free men and women of the<br />
West need to know the truth,<br />
and respond. You need to<br />
understand what is happening<br />
in your world, and in Bible<br />
prophecy, at this moment in<br />
human history. You need to<br />
recognize the power-brokers,<br />
the decision-makers, the worldshapers,<br />
who are guiding events.<br />
This is why I am so passionate<br />
about people requesting Radical<br />
Rulers: The White House Elites<br />
Who Are Pushing America<br />
toward Socialism and its<br />
companion DVD. To me, this<br />
is literally one of the most<br />
powerful books I have ever<br />
read. When combined with the<br />
DVD, I can honestly say that I<br />
personally have never viewed<br />
such explosive, enlightening,<br />
dynamic, and thorough<br />
documentation ever.<br />
There is no question that<br />
America is in trouble. The<br />
work of our ministry is more<br />
important than ever in these<br />
latter days. We must continue to<br />
proclaim the Gospel. We must<br />
speak out. We must call sin<br />
July–August 2010 | Perhaps Today | 13<br />
Dear Dr. <strong>Van</strong> <strong>Impe</strong>,<br />
I really love watching you both on<br />
TV. I love the inspiration and insight I<br />
get into God’s working in these last<br />
days, and the Scripture verses read<br />
word for word.<br />
Thank you for caring and loving<br />
people enough to tell them the Truth<br />
and to speak it with urgency and love.<br />
Thank you for your life’s work and the<br />
effort and heart you have put into it.<br />
May God bless you richly.<br />
—J.H.<br />
“sin.” And we must proclaim,<br />
without fail, that Jesus Christ<br />
is the only way to salvation.<br />
This truth is mentioned four<br />
hundred times in the New<br />
Testament.<br />
“Hate speech”? No. This is a<br />
message of love and redemption,<br />
of salvation and peace. But no<br />
matter what accusations may<br />
be thrown at me, I will never<br />
quit. I will never cower. I will<br />
preach, without fear or favor,<br />
concerning the truth about<br />
our Savior from the pages of<br />
Scripture until I draw my last<br />
breath and I go home to be with<br />
the Lord. Please stand with me.<br />
Let us stand together for the<br />
authority of God’s Word.<br />

My dearest brother,<br />
In 1972, I listened to the radio and heard your<br />
message, The Coming War with Russia. I gave my<br />
heart to Christ that night. Your voice is needed, so<br />
please, never quit. Your wife and you are a blessed<br />
reminder of God’s grace and of true Christianity and<br />
bravery, to show us who our president really is, an<br />
Obamination.<br />
My respect for you is infinite, and your health is<br />
always in my prayers.<br />

22 | Perhaps Today | July–August 2010<br />
Hello there, and God bless<br />
you both very much. I found<br />
great joy in your program this<br />
evening. Not many preachers<br />
tell us about the latter days or<br />
actually how close we are to the<br />
Rapture of the Church taking<br />
place. Not even the church we<br />
attend talks about it.<br />
I prayed with you both and<br />
turned my life over to Jesus,<br />
because both my girlfriend and I<br />
both want to be in heaven after<br />
the Rapture. We do not want to<br />
face the Tribulation about to<br />
befall us.<br />
Thank you both very much,<br />
and I promise we will watch<br />
your program every week.<br />
—J.S.<br />
I know there is a loving God,<br />
and it is proven each time you<br />
come on the TV. My heart leaps<br />
when I hear the King is coming<br />
soon! If I miss a program, I feel<br />
lost. We all need you to remind<br />
us to LOOK UP — the time is<br />
near.<br />
I am terminally ill … Do I want<br />
to be healed on this earth? No. I<br />
want to see my precious Savior.<br />
I am not afraid, thanks to your<br />
and Rexella’s encouragement.<br />
I have Christian love for all. I<br />
have seen my dad, mother, and<br />
mother-in-law through their time<br />
of need until they went home. I<br />
have adopted my grandchildren<br />
and now they are almost grown.<br />
I had an animal rescue and<br />
saved 265 animals. I don’t want<br />
to be told I have been a good<br />
person, for I am a sinner. We all<br />
sin and come short. Thanks to<br />
God for amazing grace!<br />
I pray for all of you. Thanks<br />
to you and your wife for saving<br />
me out of this stagnant sin pool.<br />
God bless and keep you always.<br />
—C.M.<br />
I watch your program weekly<br />
and looking forward to seeing it<br />
every time.<br />
I used to be addicted to drugs<br />
and alcohol, but by the grace<br />
of God, he delivered me and I<br />
haven’t been back in over a year.<br />
Praise God. He saved me! Your<br />
ministry has helped me so much.<br />
Again, thank you. I’m looking<br />
for Jesus to come back any day<br />
now.<br />
—C.R.<br />
My prayer for you, Dr. <strong>Van</strong><br />
<strong>Impe</strong>, is like a man in Jerusalem<br />
called Simeon, who was<br />
righteous and devout. He was<br />
waiting for the consolation of<br />
Israel. It had been revealed to<br />
him by the Holy Spirit that he<br />
would not die before he had<br />
seen the Lord’s Christ. As God<br />
allowed Simeon to live to see<br />
our blessed hope, Christ Jesus,<br />
maybe, by the grace of God,<br />
you will be allowed to see with<br />
your own eyes the coming of<br />
our Jesus as you meet him in<br />
the clouds. May your health and<br />
blessed work continue until that<br />
time.<br />
—J.B.<br />
Dear <strong>Jack</strong> and Rexella,<br />
I just wanted to tell you both<br />
I LOVE YOU MORE THAN<br />
WORDS CAN SAY! My favorite<br />
part of the day is watching your<br />
program and reading your daily<br />
devotions! I used to have a very<br />
close relationship with the Lord<br />
a few years ago, but since then<br />
I have done a lot of backsliding.<br />
In the last year and a half, I have<br />
been blessed with two little<br />
angels — the greatest gift in life!<br />
I have been trying really hard<br />
to be the best mother and wife<br />
that I know I can be, and I know<br />
the only way to do so is to have<br />
GOD in my life. I just wanted to<br />
tell you both thank you so much<br />
— you have helped me greatly in<br />
my journey! When I watch your<br />
program, it’s as if you are talking<br />
directly to me, and I learn so<br />
much from you. Thank you<br />
again, and God bless you both.<br />
You are doing a great service to<br />
MILLIONS!!<br />
—T.S.
Thank you for preaching the<br />
truth and letting so many who<br />
watch your program know<br />
where Obama stands and what<br />
he knows about the Bible (not<br />
very much). I am very sure<br />
that one day soon he will get<br />
an awakening along with many<br />
others.<br />
I am sure glad that you are not<br />
afraid to stand up for the truth.<br />
I love your program and try to<br />
listen every week. May God<br />
bless you!<br />
—J.L.<br />
I just wanted to thank all of<br />
you for your hard work. I have<br />
been watching your program<br />
since I was a child with my<br />
grandfather, who is with the<br />
Lord. I used to feel scared and<br />
resentful of the coming times,<br />
but I am not afraid anymore. I<br />
look forward to the Rapture,<br />
which I learned about from<br />
<strong>Jack</strong> many years ago.<br />
I only wish I could personally<br />
tell you how much you and your<br />
lovely wife have helped me with<br />
my own decision-making, and<br />
the light you brought into my<br />
life. I can hear your words in<br />
my mind motivating me toward<br />
the ways of our Lord. I am<br />
24 years old and am married<br />
because I refused to live out of<br />
wedlock with a woman. That is<br />
just one of many things I was<br />
taught by you.<br />
You are my spiritual leader<br />
and always will be. I will always<br />
lean on anything you preach<br />
because you tell it truthfully<br />
from the Word of God. You<br />
are the most devoted teacher<br />
of God’s Word that I have<br />
ever seen in my short life. I<br />
anxiously await Christ’s return,<br />
and I long to be with Him in<br />
the new world that He will rule<br />
forever and ever. I could go on<br />
and on, so in closing, I love you<br />
all for what you do in the name<br />
of Jesus our Lord.<br />
—K.R.<br />
Thank you for your ministry<br />
and the lives that have been<br />
radically changed by your<br />
words and, without a doubt,<br />
inspired by the Holy Spirit.<br />
After recommitting my life<br />
to Christ 18 months ago, and<br />
struggling with an addiction<br />
to crack cocaine, I realized<br />
through your teaching that we<br />
serve a God who TRULY loves<br />
us. Addiction comes in all walks<br />
of life, not just the poor and<br />
homeless. I can speak from my<br />
heart that wealth and material<br />
things will not keep one from<br />
sin as I personally experienced.<br />
I look forward to your emails<br />
and broadcasts weekly to<br />
inspire me to never look back,<br />
and to realize that God is<br />
calling me to those very people<br />
who struggle with similar<br />
addictions, who have lost hope<br />
for life as I had.<br />
Words cannot express my<br />
thanks for helping me stay on<br />
track with the Lord.<br />
—G.R.<br />
I am truly moved by the Book<br />
of Revelation. After I journeyed<br />
through it, everything became<br />
clear. Now I repented, was<br />
baptized, and received the gift<br />
of the Holy Ghost. However,<br />
I did not receive in-depth<br />
teaching on the Scriptures.<br />
Even so, God always knew<br />
what my heart longed for and<br />
gave it to me through you and<br />
Rexella.<br />
Thank you for opening my<br />
understanding of prophecy.<br />
Now I am more equipped<br />
than ever to help others to<br />
understand. Because of you<br />
two, I no longer have just<br />
pieces of the Bible. I now have<br />
the puzzle in its entirety! Thank<br />
you very much. You are the<br />
ministers after my own heart!<br />

Netanyahu turns to<br />
Bible in tussle over<br />
Jerusalem<br />
Reuters reports: “Beset by<br />
questions about Jerusalem’s future<br />
in talks with the Palestinians, Israeli<br />
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu<br />
reached for the Bible to stake out the<br />
Jewish state’s contested claim on the<br />
city.<br />
Netanyahu told a parliamentary<br />
session commemorating Israel’s<br />
capture of East Jerusalem from Jordan<br />
in the 1967 war that ‘Jerusalem’<br />
and its alternative Hebrew name<br />
‘Zion’ appear 850 times in the Old<br />
Testament, Judaism’s core canon.<br />
‘As to how many times Jerusalem<br />
is mentioned in the holy scriptures of<br />
other faiths, I recommend you check,’<br />
he said.<br />
Citing such ancestry, Israel<br />
calls all of Jerusalem its ‘eternal and<br />
indivisible’ capital — a designation<br />
not recognized abroad, where many<br />
powers support Arab claims to East<br />
Jerusalem as the capital of a future<br />
Palestinian state.<br />
The dispute is further inflamed by<br />
the fact East Jerusalem houses al-Aqsa<br />
mosque, Islam’s third-holiest shrine,<br />
on a plaza that Jews revere as the<br />
vestige of two biblical Jewish temples.<br />
Heckled by a lawmaker from<br />
Israel’s Arab minority, Netanyahu<br />
offered a lesson in comparative<br />
religion from the lectern.<br />
‘Because you asked: Jerusalem<br />
is mentioned 142 times in the New<br />
Testament, and none of the 16<br />
various Arabic names for Jerusalem<br />
is mentioned in the Koran. But in an<br />
expanded interpretation of the Koran<br />
from the 12th century, one passage is<br />
said to refer to Jerusalem,’ he said.<br />
Responding to Netanyahu’s<br />
citations, Palestinian chief negotiator<br />
Saeb Erekat said: ‘I find it very<br />
distasteful, this use of religion to<br />
incite hatred and fear. East Jerusalem<br />
is an occupied Palestinian town, and<br />
East Jerusalem cannot continue to<br />
be occupied if there is to be peace.’…”<br />
(Prime Minister Netanyahu found<br />
that Jerusalem is mentioned 850<br />
times in the Old Testament. It is<br />
also found 142 times in the New<br />
Testament for a total of 992 times<br />
as he includes Zion, the original<br />
name for Jerusalem. Sad that<br />
President Obama has promised it<br />
to the Muslims whose Koran never<br />
mentions Jerusalem even once.)<br />
Report: Obama<br />
promised Abbas a<br />
Palestinian state<br />
within two years<br />
Haaretz reports: “U.S. President<br />
Barack Obama told Palestinian<br />
leader Mahmoud Abbas that he was<br />
committed to seeing the creation of a<br />
sovereign Palestinian state within two<br />
years, an Egyptian official told the<br />
Arabic-language daily Al-Hayat.<br />
Obama promised Abbas that<br />
the United States would make great<br />
effort to help see that Palestinian goal<br />
achieved, the official told the Londonbased<br />
newspaper.<br />
The official also told Al-Hayat<br />
that Israel had rejected special U.S.<br />
envoy George Mitchell’s proposal to<br />
withdraw Israel Defense Forces troops<br />
from Palestinian-occupied sections of<br />
the West Bank, as it did on the eve of
28 | Perhaps Today | July–August 2010<br />
the Second Intifada in 2000.<br />
According to the report,<br />
Israel told Mitchell that it could<br />
not guarantee such a move before<br />
beginning direct peace negotiations<br />
with the Palestinian Authority.<br />
In place of withdrawing troops,<br />
the official told Al-Hayat, Israel<br />
offered other goodwill gestures,<br />
such as removing checkpoints<br />
and releasing certain Palestinian<br />
prisoners.<br />
Last week, Abbas urged the Obama<br />
administration to impose a solution<br />
to the Middle East conflict that would<br />
give his people an independent state,<br />
and rejected the idea of creating a state<br />
within temporary borders…” (Not<br />
only has President Obama promised<br />
the Palestinian’s a state, he has also<br />
promised that the city of Jerusalem<br />
will be given to them. Who but a<br />
dictator could make such promises<br />
and fulfill them? Daniel 9:27; Isaiah<br />
28:15; Daniel 8:25; I Thessalonians<br />
5:3.)<br />
World Jewish leader<br />
to Obama: Is U.S.<br />
committed to Israel’s<br />
security?<br />
Haaretz reports: “World<br />
Jewish Congress President Ronald<br />
Lauder has publically questioned<br />
U.S. President Barack Obama’s<br />
commitment to Israel’s security, in a<br />
letter he reportedly drafted with the<br />
approval of his close friend Prime<br />
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.<br />
‘Our great country and the<br />
tiny State of Israel have long shared<br />
the core values of freedom and<br />
democracy,’ wrote Lauder, in a letter<br />
published as an advertisement in The<br />
Washington Post and The Wall Street<br />
Journal.<br />
‘It is a bond much treasured<br />
by the Jewish people. In that spirit<br />
I submit, most respectfully, that<br />
it is time to end our public feud<br />
with Israel and to confront the real<br />
challenges that we face together,’<br />
wrote Lauder.<br />
In his letter, Lauder asks why the<br />
Obama administration has taken such<br />
a critical stance toward Israel amid<br />
efforts to revive stalled Middle East<br />
peace talks.<br />
‘Why does the thrust of this<br />
administration’s Middle East rhetoric<br />
seem to blame Israel for the lack of<br />
movement on peace talks? After all,<br />
it is the Palestinians, not Israel, who<br />
refuse to negotiate,’ wrote Lauder.<br />
‘Can it be true that America is<br />
no longer committed to a final status<br />
agreement that provides defensible<br />
borders for Israel? Is a new course<br />
being charted that would leave Israel<br />
with the indefensible borders that<br />
invited invasion prior to 1967?’…”<br />
(Under numerous presidencies<br />
since Harry Truman, Israel has been<br />
secure. Under Obama, the situation<br />
is in turmoil, the worst in 35 years —<br />
Jeremiah 30:7; II Kings 17:34.)<br />
North Korea warns<br />
it will use nuclear<br />
weapons if invaded<br />
SpaceDaily.com reports: “North<br />
Korea warned it was prepared to use<br />
nuclear weapons if it was invaded by<br />
the United States and South Korea.<br />
The official Korean Central News<br />
Agency (KCNA) carried the remarks<br />
by the North’s Joint Chief, General<br />
Ri Yong-Ho, during a national<br />
meeting on the eve of the birthday<br />
of the communist country’s armed<br />
forces.<br />
‘The revolutionary armed forces<br />
of the DPRK (North Korea) are fully<br />
ready to frustrate any provocation<br />
of the aggressors at a single blow,’ Ri<br />
said.<br />
‘They will mobilise all means<br />
including the nuclear deterrent ...<br />
should the U.S. imperialists and the<br />
south Korean puppet warmongers<br />
dare intrude into the inviolable sky,<br />
land and seas of the DPRK even<br />
0.001mm,’ he said.<br />
He added that ‘a grave<br />
situation is now prevailing on the<br />
Korean Peninsula’ because of the<br />
neighbouring South and its ally the<br />
United States, who he said wanted to<br />
start a war.<br />
The harsh rhetoric comes as<br />
tensions between the two Koreas<br />
are high over the sinking of a South<br />
Korean warship last month near the<br />
disputed sea border in the Yellow<br />
Sea with a loss of 46 lives.<br />
Seoul has been careful not to<br />
point the finger directly at the North<br />
over the incident in the Yellow Sea,<br />
which has stoked already tense ties,<br />
and Pyongyang has denied it was to<br />
blame.<br />
The tensions prompted U.S.<br />
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton<br />
to say she hoped there would be ‘no<br />
miscalculation’ that could spark a new<br />
war between the Koreas…” (North<br />
Korea will probably be one of the<br />
kings of the East invading Israel<br />
during Armageddon — Revelation<br />
16:12; Revelation 9:14-18.)
He grew up inside the deadly terrorist group<br />
Hamas ... groomed to assume power ... but<br />
then everything changed. When Mosab turns<br />
away from terror and violence, and instead embraces<br />
the teachings of another famous Middle East leader —<br />
Jesus — he’s suddenly at more risk than ever!<br />
Read this astonishing book — and you’ll<br />
never think about “loving your enemies” in the<br />
same way again!<br />
