Zechariah 12:3 “And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”
Editor's Note: Jim Bakker teaches to watch Israel closely because it is the prophetic timeclock for the unfolding of Last Days events. In Matthew 24, Israel is the fig tree that the Lord told His people to observe to understand the times. It is like a barometer of what is happening in the nations.
Hamas attempted to sneak a 13-man terrorist cell into Israel during the five-hour “humanitarian” ceasefire on Thursday but Israel Defense Force personnel stopped the infiltration.
IDF soldiers manning a border area near Kibbutz Sufa when one of them noticed a man rising out of the desert. The troops quickly closed in and discovered a Hamas tunnel and the terrorists attempting to sneak into the country.
The official IDF statement says the troops “neutralized the threat.”
“Units arrived at the area, and terrorists were apparently surprised. They began returning to the tunnel. The air force began attacking them from the air,” IDF spokesman Brigadier General Moti Almoz said. “We understand there are casualties [among the terrorists]. The full picture is not yet known.”
“This is another successful thwarting of a Hamas attack planned for the southern area. We are ready for these scenarios in the coming days,” Almoz added.
No Israeli troops were hurt in the exchange with the terrorists.
