Getting Ready for Beck and His Rally of Courage

Jerusalem for the Mormons is an important and historical element for Joseph Smith, Mormon Prophet, "knew that the Holy Land, where Jesus lived when He was on earth, is where the Jewish people would gather in the last days and where a temple would be built". More:-

During the April 1840 general conference, Joseph Smith called Orson Hyde to go to the European Jews and then to the Holy Land to dedicate it.

On the morning of 24 October 1841, after having spent several months laboring in Europe and traveling to the Holy Land, Orson Hyde passed through the gates of Jerusalem and climbed the Mount of Olives. Through the spirit of revelation he wrote and offered a dedicatory prayer. In the prayer, he asked the Lord to bless the Holy Land for the gathering of the Jews. He acknowledged that God had given this land to Abraham and his children, that these children were scattered, and that they looked forward to the fulfillment of God’s promises. He prayed for the building up of Jerusalem and for the rearing of a temple, and he asked that the land be fruitful. Elder Hyde also prayed that the Lord would strengthen the Church and its leaders. Immediately following this holy experience, he “erected a pile of stones as a witness” to the occasion. (See History of the Church, 4:456–59.)

Glenn Beck is a Mormon and so, we have this declaration:

“I believe I’ve been asked to stand — in Jerusalem,”

“Things in Israel are going to get bad…it’s only a matter of time.”

“They are going to attack the center of our faith, our common faith, and that is Jerusalem. And it won’t be with bullets or bombs. It will be with a two-state solution that cuts off Jerusalem, the old city, to the rest of the world.”

“It is time to return inside the walls that surround Jerusalem and stand with people of all faiths all around the world.”

And Beck announced on Monday that he'll be holding a "Restoring Courage" rally in Israel this August, so people can "stand together and show the world what living a life of faith and honor really means."

"In August, whether I'm there with seven people or 10 people or there alone, I will be counted and I will stand," he said. Beck asked his supporters to help him spread the word about the rally to Restore Courage. "I ask you to join me," he said, during the radio announcement. "I also ask you to take this message globally, to take this to every corner of the earth. If you have family living overseas, this is not an America solution. This is a people of faith solution. This is a people all over the world solution. I ask you to help get this word out."

I guess we need get ready. And understand all the background - political and theological.

Despite superficial appearance to the exact contrary, Beck and Obama have much the same blasphemous and anti-Israel agenda and very similar beliefs. For starters, both speak of themselves as gods.
