From the United Nations to the White House, people and institutions all over the planet are hostile to Israel, to Jerusalem, and to the Jews historic connection to Jerusalem. The war on the Jewishness of Jerusalem is intensifying and the UN and others are trying to sever Israel’s ties to the holy city. Meanwhile, since 2005 much evidence has emerged dramatically proving the Jews’ historic connection to Jerusalem. Is this coincidence? In today’s program, guest presenter Brad Macdonald explores the global war on Jerusalem.

The last few decades have seen religion’s power explode. From Russia to the Middle East and across Asia, religions have rapidly expanded and become more influential. Only the West has remained immune to this trend. Could that change? Trumpet staff writer Richard Palmer shows why Europe is on the brink of rediscovering its Christian identify.

Trumpet Hour: American Politics: How Did We Get Here? and More

• Today’s show is on politics. America’s presidential election is just a week away.
• Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton is embroiled in an e-mail scandal that could derail her bid for the presidency in this final week of the campaign. It’s an extraordinary development in a wild campaign season.
• How did we get here? Many American voters would like to cast a ballot for “none of the above.” How did the primaries produce such distasteful options, and what does it say about our political system?
• What is the state of American diplomacy? The current presidential administration has accelerated a trend undermining this crucial aspect of national power.
• And we’ll conclude the program by talking about a crucial lesson we need to take from this election.

The Chinese Economic Offensive in Europe

Isaiah 23 warns of an end-time “mart of nations” that acts in economic alliance. This alliance includes the nations of China (Chittim) and Tyre (representing the commercial center of the European Union, also called the king of the north in other prophecies). This chapter, along with other scriptures, makes it evident that these two powerful economies are prophesied to work in confederacy to dominate global trade for a short period of time—at America’s expense.

Deuteronomy 28 foretells America being besieged by its enemies: “And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land, which the Lord thy God hath given thee” (verse 52). Other prophecies reveal that the enemy that besieges the modern nations of Israel will be a German-led European Union (Habakkuk 1:6-17).

Besiege in the above verse means to shut up or tie up, or to be cramped, and has economic connotations. Europe will lead the world in shutting America and its allies out during a global trade war that becomes a hot war. Prophecy tells us America will be “cramped in” to the point where even food can no longer reach its shores.

The Bible contains many prophecies of that European power attacking America—and many other prophecies of America being besieged. Isaiah 23 indicates which nations will join Europe in that economic blockade! “That is where China and the giants of Asia enter the picture,” writes Gerald Flurry in his booklet Isaiah’s End-Time Vision .…

But the whole context of Isaiah’s prophecy is of far greater brilliance. The Jews regard Isaiah as their greatest poet; the most beautiful and stirring prose in the biblical canon is found in his writings. The language matches the vision of the future described. Read it for yourself. And read the booklet Isaiah’s End-Time Vision alongside it to see what impact these prophesied alliances will have on the world today and where they will lead in the future.

“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he” (Proverbs 29:18). God expects us to have our minds continually set on the future—on the spiritual. In all aspects of our lives God expects us to have the vision to see where we are heading. On today’s program, Stephen Flurry looks at the example of Herbert Armstrong to encourage listeners to be people of vision.

In the United States, the world of politics is rife with corruption and scandal. For most, this is no reason to be concerned about America’s future. Some have even gone so far as to celebrate character flaws—as if these many flaws are actually positive character traits! On today’s program, Stephen Flurry explains what the Bible says about character and its impact on an individual’s ability to lead.
