“Will There Ever Be a Two-State Solution?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

While the war between Israel and Hamas is ongoing, with a temporary cease fire to carry out a ridiculous deal, many are already advocating a permanent cease fire and a two-state solution. They are totally ignorant about the true feelings of most Palestinians. The Bible tells you that some Arab nations, Turkey and Europe under German leadership will try, not to create a two-state solution, but something which would be altogether different, but they won’t succeed.

“Wird es jemals zu einer Zweistaatenlösung kommen?” is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program, presented by Norbert Link. Title in English: “Will There Ever Be a Two-State Solution?”

“The Foolish Hamas-Israel Deal—and What It Means!” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Israel and Iran’s proxy, Hamas, agreed to a four-day pause or ceasefire to allow the release of 50 innocent hostages [out of more than 200 hostages] in exchange for 150 Palestinians imprisoned in Israel. Israel said it would extend the four-day pause by an additional day for every ten hostages released by Hamas, and it published a list of 300 names of Palestinian prisoners who could be freed. Among those released are operatives of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Fatah and the Popular Front who had been convicted of sometimes brutal crimes. It has been claimed that the Biden administration pressured Israel to cut this unfair deal. This comes after the Biden administration released $6 billion to Iran, in exchange for five American hostages, before Hamas’ Oct. 7 terrorist attack. What does this all mean in the light of biblical prophecy?

“Is Ukraine Losing the War?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Many feel that Ukraine might be losing the war with Russia—especially if military aid from the USA would be decreased–and that urgent peace negotiations with Russia are inevitable. As Zelenskyy would be unwilling to negotiate with Russia, many push for change in Ukraine’s government. Will Ukraine ever become a member of the EU and NATO? What does the Bible say about the identity of the Ukrainian people and the future for both Russia and Ukraine?

Throughout the Bible we find the encouraging admonition to be strong. From whom can we find strength? And once found, what are we accountable to do with the strength we put to work in our lives?

“New York’s Witch Hunt Against Trump,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

New York Attorney General Letitia James, a black woman and a Democrat, filed a civil lawsuit against Donald Trump, his children, and the Trump Organization, claiming that Trump defrauded banks by inflating the value of his assets in his financial statements. Judge Arthur Engoron, a Democrat, decided by summary judgment, without a trial or a jury, that fraud was committed. His evaluation of Trump’s property has been strongly criticized as being blatantly false, showing, allegedly, his bias against Trump. The current trial only deals with the “penalty phase.” As this program shows, both the law which is being used to decide against Trump as well as the entire legal procedure are seriously flawed. Is it true, then, that the legal system in New York can be compared with a banana republic, as some claim? “New Yorks Hexenjagd gegen Trump,” is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program, presented by Norbert Link. This program in German covers the same topic as described above.

On the other hand, in what way does an unrighteous person show that he does not have mercy, compassion and the will to forgive? Why must we, as God’s people, be truly merciful, moved with compassion, and ready to forgive?

“Are Hamas Terrorists Freedom Fighters?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

They are, if you want to believe Turkish President Erdogan. Suddenly the villain has become the victim, and the victim the villain. What abomination! And what about the Palestinians? Do they support or reject Hamas? The wrath of the Muslim world—but not just the Muslim world—is directed against Israel, and many sometimes violent demonstrations and riots, including in England, France and Germany,  provide ample testimony as to what is the real goal of Israel’s enemies.  But their plans will fail!

“Sind die Hamas Terroristen Freiheitskämpfer?” is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program, presented by Norbert Link. This program in German covers the same topic as described above.

“Israel Is Being Attacked! Where Are Israel’s True Friends?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

On Saturday, October 7, the Last Great Day which followed the Feast of Tabernacles, the murderous and barbaric Terrorist group Hamas attacked, killed, wounded and kidnapped thousands of Jews with the help of Iran.  At first, Western nations voiced strong support for Israel, but this changed quickly. What we are seeing these days is again a worldwide anti-Semitic uprising and slanderous reporting by the mass media, combined with terrible politics of the USA, Europe and Germany. As usual, Israel’s search for true friends is failing miserably. 

During the recent Fall Holy Days, John Amorelli, a longtime faithful member of God’s Church, was ordained as deacon. He and his wife, Louise, live in West Virginia. Also, four faithful and dedicated members in Germany were ordained as deacons:  Marc Völler, Robert Muhr, Cristian Popescu and Robert Indlekofer. In addition, we are very pleased to announce the baptism of two people in Germany:  Petar Babaradic and Tom Lämmchen.
