BY ISRAEL TODAY—
Popular and controversial American TV personality Glenn Beck has set August 24 as the date for his rally “to restore courage” in Jerusalem.
Beck came up with the idea for the rally during his recent surprise visit to Israel to celebrate the 63th anniversary of the rebirth of the Jewish state.
The upcoming rally will be modeled on Beck’s rally “to restore honor” that he hosted in Washington, DC last year.
The main event will take place at the Western Wall Plaza in Jerusalem’s Old City, but participants will be able to view everything live from massive screens at the Sultan’s Pool outide the Old City walls and at Teddy Stadium in the capital’s Malha neighborhood.
The Israeli public is being encouraged to attend at any of the three venues. Live music will be performed, there will be a pyrotechnics display and a number of prominent US political figures are expected to make appearances – chief among them presidential hopefuls Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney.
Sarah Palin really isn’t a Pres. Hopeful. Either is Huckabee. Oh by the way, Joseph Liberman will be attending.
I like that Glenn is standing up for Israel. However, I’m concerned over the inclusion of Mormonism into true Christianity. Today on the conference call that Hagee did with Glenn, I was uncomfortable hearing Hagee refer to Glenn as Brother. It just didn’t set right to me.
I don’t feel comfortable with a lot of things, including some of the things Glen says or does, but only God really knows what is in the heart of man…….as far as I know , “nothing” has been, or is currently being added to scripture by anyone… at least anyone who is truely God fearing and reverant ? There is just sooooooooo much”, that we are not allowed to see…..”yet”…. but if I remember correctly our Lord Jesus said…”I Am The Truth”…..and anyone who truely has a relationship with Christ and seeks oneness with Him ….., and honors Him as, humbling himself under His mighty hand, is more than OK with me. God is using men like Beck in “mysterious ways” and I am humbled, because “Who would have Thunk it” a few years ago when the “Moral Majority” was the talk of the town ? Glen isn’t confusing people about religion, especially, christianity…….. but he sure is making us christians sit up and take notice isn’t he ? I told a former converted Catholic brother the other day that I would rather be a Catholic than a liberal christian, and he went “bonkers” on me. He believes all Catholics are lost and going to hell….. whoaaaaaaaaa nellie”…. I am not prepared to make a sweeping judgement like that (all inclusive) and I tink it “ill advised” to be that dogmatic. I think grace covers a “multitude” of sins, and that doesn’t include “easy believism “, or “cheap grace” (that which we bestow upon ourselves) but nevertheless if someone is not preaching another gospel (Christ crucified) and forgiveness as the “bottom line”, both for others and ourselves, I am not to bent out of shape by someones desire to bring Israels plight to the public and as far as I know Glen supports Israel 100 % and his presence there will call attention to what is going on , and hopefully some of us pious folks who are mere spectators will get off our backsides and join in the fray to keep God’s chosen people from being pushed into the sea……. I cannot imagine anything that would please God more….”according to God”
Do not concern yourself with Pastor Hagee calling Glenn Beck brother…….they have many things in common….they each share a love for Israel and America, and they are giving—to a certain degree—“their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor…..”
Remember: Men and Women who are honorable conduct themselves in an honorable manner. These two men are as different as different can be/BUT they love Israel and the Jewish People—and therefore they have come together as Brothers to stand together on Israel’s behalf.
G-d has Always had a people HE can count on…..Right now HE is rallying HIS troops…..Hagee and Beck are but two of many.
Me either? Even the elect will be fooled….. We must be very careful and wise?
Deanna, almost 30 years ago I worked with a man who had a darling sense of humor…..at certain times when it looked as though we all were about to get super “stressed” when our deadlines were near: He would make this statement, with a funny look on his face:
“DON’T WORRY ‘BOUT IT……HEEAH!”
So Deanna, I am saying to you with all sincerity: “Don’t worry about it…you hear me….it is really okay——“
I am DEEPLY disturbed by Glenn Beck’s statement that he made that if he (Glenn) could get the chance, he would stab Donald Trump repeatedly!!!! This worries me GREATLY!!!!! Perhaps, I misjudged Glenn in 2011…..Or maybe—things have changed Drastically inside of Glenn. We all need to Pray for Glenn Beck NOW! THIS IS MOST SERIOUS……
