    September 11, 2009 INSIDE THE REVOLUTION

    A groundbreaking documentary film from New York Times best-selling author Joel C. Rosenberg.

    Go here to watch the live Webcast.

    About the Documentary

    In 1979, the Ayatollah Khomeini seized power in Iran, unleashed the Islamic Revolution, and changed the world forever. Three decades later, New York Times best-selling author Joel C. Rosenberg brings you a groundbreaking documentary film that takes you inside the three most dramatic movements of our time:

    • THE RADICALS—Why do Radical Muslims want to annihilate the United States and Israel? Why do they believe the Islamic Messiah’s arrival on Earth is “imminent” and the End of Days is at hand? How close are they to acquiring nuclear weapons and achieving their apocalyptic objectives?
    • THE REFORMERS—Aren’t there any Muslims who believe the Radicals are wrong? Is there any real hope such Reformers can create real democracies in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere?
    • THE REVIVALISTS—Is it really true that millions of Muslims are abandoning Islam and turning to faith in Jesus Christ? How is it happening? What are their stories?

    Inside the Revolution is a 90-minute documentary film with extensive special features and exclusive interviews with:

    • Porter Goss, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency
    • Lt.-General (ret.) Jerry Boykin, former Delta Force commander and deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence
    • Hon. Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel
    • Senior Iraqi government officials
    • Joel C. Rosenberg, author and founder of The Joshua Fund

    Filmed on location in Iraq, Turkey, Morocco, Israel, the United Kingdom, and Washington, D.C.

    Live Webcast


    On Friday night, September 11, 2009, Joel C. Rosenberg and Lt.-General (ret.) Jerry Boykin, former commander of Delta Force, will host a national town hall meeting to discuss the threat of Radical Islam, the future of Israel, and the role of the Church in the Middle East.

    They will show a 30-minute excerpt from the Inside the Revolution documentary film to an audience of some 2,500 in Philadelphia. They will then answer questions from the audience, and from viewers around the country and around the world. Our hope is that pastors in hundreds of congregations throughout North America will choose to show the webcast of the 2-hour event in their auditoriums that Friday night as a catalyst for an ongoing conversation on these vital topics in the weeks and months ahead.

    ABOUT JOEL ROSENBERG

    image Joel C. Rosenberg is the New York Times best-selling author of The Last Jihad, The Last Days, The Ezekiel Option, The Copper Scroll, and Epicenter: How the Current Rumblings in the Middle East Will Change Your World, with more than one million copies in print. He is also the founder and president of the Joshua Fund, a nonprofit charitable and educational organization that provides humanitarian relief for victims of war and terrorism in Israel and the Muslim world.
    As a communications strategist, Joel has worked with some of the world's most influential leaders in business, politics, and media, including Steve Forbes, Rush Limbaugh, former Israeli Deputy Prime Minister Natan Sharansky, and former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. As a novelist, he has been interviewed on more than 300 radio and TV programs, including ABC's Nightline, CNN Headline News, Fox News Channel, the History Channel, MSNBC, the Rush Limbaugh Show, and the Sean Hannity Show. He has been profiled by The New York Times, The Washington Times, and The Jerusalem Post, and he was the subject of two cover stories in World magazine. He has addressed audiences all over the world, including Russia, Israel, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, and Belgium. He has spoken at the White House, the Heritage Foundation, AOL, and the International Spy Museum, as well as at dozens of conferences, universities, churches, synagogues, political events, book-seller conventions, and charitable fund-raisers.
    The first page of his first novel-The Last Jihad-puts you inside the cockpit of a hijacked jet, coming in on a kamikaze attack into an American city, which leads to a war with Saddam Hussein over weapons of mass destruction. Yet it was written before 9/11, long before the actual war with Iraq. When published, The Last Jihad spent 11 weeks on the New York Times best-seller list, reaching as high as #7. It raced up the USA Today and Publishers Weekly best-seller lists, hit #4 on the Wall Street Journal list, and hit #1 on Amazon.com.
    His second thriller-The Last Days-opens with the death of Yasser Arafat and a U.S. diplomatic convoy ambushed in Gaza. Six days before The Last Days was published in hardcover, a U.S. diplomatic convoy was ambushed in Gaza. Thirteen months later, Yasser Arafat died. The Last Days spent 4 weeks on the New York Times best-seller list, hit #5 on the Denver Post list, and reached #8 on the Dallas Morning News list. Both books were optioned by a Hollywood producer.
    The Ezekiel Option centers on a Russian dictator who forms a military alliance with the leaders of Iran who are feverishly pursuing nuclear weapons and threatening to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. On the very day it was published in June 2005, Iran elected a new leader who vowed to accelerate the country's nuclear program and later vowed to "wipe Israel off the map." Six months after the book was published, Moscow signed a $1 billion arms deal with Tehran. The Ezekiel Option spent four weeks on the New York Times hardcover best-seller list and more than six months on the CBA best-seller list. It was named the "Best Christian Novel of 2006" by the Christian Booksellers Association.
    The Copper Scroll is the fourth novel in the series and a New York Times, Publishers Weekly, and CBA best seller. On June 1, 1956, The New York Times broke a story that captured the imagination of the world. Another Dead Sea Scroll had been found, unlike any before it, describing unimaginable treasures worth untold billions buried in the hills east of Jerusalem and under the Holy City itself. In the years that followed, scholars came to believe that the Copper Scroll could be history's greatest treasure map, one that could not only lead to great wealth but pave the way to the building of the Third Jewish Temple. But the scroll's code has never been broken, and experts from all sides warn that any effort by Israel to rebuild their Temple in Jerusalem would unleash a war of biblical proportions. Saddam Hussein is gone. Yasser Arafat is dead. A new Iraq is rising. And now White House advisors Jon Bennett and Erin McCoy find themselves facing a terrifying new threat triggered by an ancient mystery.
    Epicenter is Joel's first nonfiction book, focusing on the rapidly rising Iranian nuclear threat, why Russia is selling arms and nuclear technology to Iran, why Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad believes it is the end of the world, and why Ahmadinejad is saying that the way to hasten the coming of the Islamic Messiah is to annihilate the United States and Israel. Using exclusive interviews with U.S., Israeli, Arab, and Russian leaders and previously classified documents from the White House, CIA, and State Department, Joel examines 10 future headlines that could come out of Russia and the Middle East, and does so in the light of Islamic, Jewish, and Christian eschatology (end-times theology). Epicenter has spent months on the New York Times, Publishers Weekly, and CBA best-seller lists. It is currently being turned into a documentary for a major national television network.
    Joel was born to a Jewish father and a Gentile mother, Joel is an evangelical Christian. His grandparents escaped Russian persecution of the Jews in the early part of the twentieth century. Joel graduated from Syracuse University in 1989 and studied at Tel Aviv University. He is married, has four sons, and lives near Washington, D.C., where he and his wife are members of McLean Bible Church. His Web sites are joelrosenberg.com and joshuafund.net.

    A Thought on Prophets

    Just a quick thought here on prophets:
    I watched Joel Rosenberg speak at the 2009 Epicenter Conference in the webcast today and was thinking about the fact that Joel clearly states that he is not a prophet and yet he has, multiple times, correctly predicted future events in his books. He didn't have to interpret events that Christians or non-Christians couldn't see, because they were in your face. They couldn't be missed. Anyone who read his books were saying; 'wow, thats almost exactly what Joel described in his books!'

    And then there are those who say they are a prophet and... *chirp chirp chirp* They have to interpret things that aren't there.
    And those who can "see" them, IMHO it is simply the case of a desperate hope, because they so long for the return of Jesus, as do we all.

    But the reality is in the danger we face when these men pop up claiming prophet-hood and subtly lead us into trust and adoration of them as Jesus' voice fades away into the dark distance:


    2 Co. 11:12 And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about.


    13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ.


    14 And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.


    15 It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.


    Herbert slung those verses like a handful of mud at the "worldly" churches.


    I was told the story by an ex WCG member who many years ago, as a member sat in a service with his Father who was not a member. After the service his Father told him: 'They say God a lot but, I only heard them mention Jesus a few times, but only in an incidental way... Your church has a lot of truth, but it has just enough arsenic to kill you.'


    Of course, as an obedient follower of HWA, his Fathers words meant nothing ... until the day light pierced through the darkness and revealed the truth.

    JOEL ROSENBERG GETS IT RIGHT

    It is interesting to me... I mentioned to some of my family, (those that are members of Ron Weinland's church), that if there was any man to keep an eye on, it would be Joel Rosenberg.


    Probably, few of you are familiar with him. There is a link to his weblog on the right. He has been involved in government for many years and is a Christian. (You can find out more about him on his weblog).

    He decided to get into writing fiction and wrote some political based novels. The first one just happened to include events that actually came to pass. His editor (I believe it was) was pretty excited about that and wanted Joel to write a second novel. Joel assured him just because it happened once did not mean it would happen again. Yet, it did.

    The first novel, The Last Jihad predicted 911 and the war with Iraq; the second, The Last Day predicted the death of Yasser Arafat and a terrorist attack on a CIA/Diplomatic convoy passing through Gaza; The Ezekiel Option predicted Putin consolidating central power, and his welcoming of a radical Iranian president with overtures towards alliance, and Iran's drive to acquire nuclear weapons, defying the US.



    Being a Christian along side his insight to the interactions of government(s)/politics, has given Joel a unique perspective that has shown up in his fiction and non-fiction books.

    What motivates me to write this post is what I read in his first non-fiction book, Epicenter, in which he said, according to Deuteronomy 33 , that Israel would come upon great fortune from beneath the ground (oil) in the last days before the ten nation alliance would come against Israel.

    This was something that was a part of his fictional The Last Jihad series, also. And not too long ago, I read on his weblog, a piece from the Jerusalem Post website:
    “Three massive gas reservoirs have been discovered 80 kilometers off the Haifa coast, at the Tamar prospect, Noble Energy Inc. announced on Sunday….Speaking on Army Radio Sunday morning, an exhilarated Yitzhak Tshuva, owner of the Delek Group Ltd, one of the owners of the well, called the discovery ‘one of the biggest in the world,’ promising that the find would present a historic land mark in the economic independence of Israel. ”


    So, just let me make myself clear: Ron Weinland says he is God's Final Witness, God's Prophet, and yet, he has gotten nothing right.


    Joel Rosenberg has made no such claims and yet, again and again, he has nailed it on the head. He doesn't give dates because he doesn't make claims to receiving anything directly from God. He simply knows government/politics and his Bible.


    And certainly, I make no claims that Joel has a direct link to God, only that he is someone to watch. He is simply a fellow Christian.


    NOTE: Most of this is memory based, you can get better details from his weblog and web page.
