This is an open letter to United Nations and European Union staff members posted in Jerusalem and Israel. Had I the funds I would print this and place it on every one of the myriad UN and EU vehicles driving around this city. Meanwhile hopefully someone will pick it up and pass it on.
==========================
Dear United Nations or European Union employee stationed in Israel.
You are receiving this notice because it is quite possible that the organization you work for has failed to fully and fairly apprise you of all the realities that come with your posting to Jerusalem or wherever you have been stationed in this country.
Doubtless, before you accepted the position, you learned of all the benefits that come with being on the staff of the UN or EU; the plus side must be considerably attractive, given the number of these organizations’ personnel working in the land.
Or perhaps you are here on a mission; out of a noble desire to help the underdog?
Whatever the case, it is only right you should also know that your presence here, and the activities that occupy you in Israel, place you in potentially grave, personal danger.
You may have to endure quite terrifying consequences for a long, long time to come.
As you may know, Israel is not just another country, and Jerusalem is not just another city.
More than 4000 years ago this land was given by divine decree to three men, who became the Founding Fathers of the most enduring nation in history. (Genesis 13:14-17; Genesis 26:2-3; Genesis 28:13,14)
Whether or not you believe in God – the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of the Bible – the land of Israel, and specifically those parts the UN and EU call “occupied Arab lands,” were given by Him exclusively to the Jews, forever.
The Bible calls Jerusalem, the capital of Israel, “the city of the great King.” (Psalm 48:2; Matthew 5:35)
It is referring to Jesus Christ, the Son of God who lived, died and rose again in this city, and who will soon be coming back to reign in this very place – Jerusalem. The site of His Throne Room – according to the same Bible – is the Temple Mount, situated in what you call “Eastern Jerusalem” – that part of Jerusalem the EU and UN want to see becoming the capital of a State of Palestine.
And according to the same Holy Book, God takes a very dim view indeed of any nation that puts its hand to the division of His land. He has vowed to deal extremely harshly with those who do this. God has, He says, “a day of vengeance for the controversy of Zion.” (Joel 3:2; Isaiah 34:1-8)
Browse the Prophets, and you can read about all that will happen to the UN and EU if they insist on forcing the Jewish people to relinquish this land in order to appease and placate the Arabs.
You drive through this city, your logo blazoned brazenly on your vehicle, openly supporting those who hate Israel and working hand in hand with those who plan to take the most important parts of Jerusalem away from the Jews.
The UN and EU reject Israel’s sovereign claim to its ancient capital; they reject the millennia-old claim of the Jewish people to Samaria and Judea – the cradle of their nationhood.
And the UN and EU are determined to impose their will on this, one of the very smallest of the world’s nations.
I am not sure which country you come from, but I am betting the Jewish homeland and the Jewish people have been around a whole lot longer than your nation has.
How dare the UN/EU aid and abet in this way those out to steal the historic Land of Israel from its rightful owners?
You should take note of the fact that Israel has outlasted all the great empires of time. Take careful note: Israel will also outlast the United Nations, the EU, and the rest of the nations who form the so-called Quartet.
And as for the fate of those nations - your nation? As much as the Jews have been singled out for persecution and hatred down through the centuries, so much more will the nations represented in the UN/EU suffer.
God has said He will take the cup of suffering away from Israel and force the nations to drink its bitter dregs themselves. (Isaiah 51:21-23)
Mark these words.
What does this mean for you personally as a member of the EU/UN? In what way will you be held accountable for your role in this? That’s something that you will have to answer in and to yourself. It is certainly something you are set to find out, and I envy you not at all.
Believe me - no matter how honorable you might consider your actions here, you are in for a very rude awakening. Like me, like every individual human being, you are destined to stand before the Almighty one day and give account of your deeds.
You do have a way out - possibly a few to choose from: You can either work within your organization to change the biased and unjust approach it has assumed in dealing with the Israeli-Palestinian issue. Or you can ask for a transfer to another country where the UN/EU operates.
Or – and this is probably the safest option – you can resign.
The choice is yours. If you ignore this word, beware, for “it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.”
The Land of Israel and the city of Jerusalem belong to the Jews. Stop working to wrest it from them. You have no right to do so.
Sincerely, and with the very best of intentions towards you
Stan Goodenough
Jerusalem
Well said.
I feel very ashamed about all this. Ashamed about me living in a country and in the EU, which do not respect the holy covenant in the Bible. But, the God of Israel Himself will take care of His People. Still, I am very sure that a lot of people in the EU do NOT agree with EU politics in this case. We will pray for the people of Israel and support them in any ways we can. May God bless you.
Right on my Brother, Right on. The Day is Coming Soon and Very Soon!!!!!!
I always said that the Arab-Israeli conflict was between Ishmael and Jacob. But on looking at it more closely it becomes obvious that this is the last conflict of Satan against God.
As foolish as the world looks as it opposes God, it’s not as foolish as Satan’s opposition to God. He knows he’s fighting a losing battle, yet he digs in all the more deeply as we near the end. “Samson complex,” I guess.
Blessed be the Name of the Lord our G-D, The G-D of Abraham Isaac and and Yacob has spoken so mbe it. Heashem put a period here not a hyphen so shall it be. Glory to the G-D on High whose perspective is higher than the visible heaven. Baruch Hashem
Stan, it’s great to be hearing from you again after some time. I know that no doubt your studies have had to take prime place, but it is so refreshing to have your comments again on this increasingly dire situation in Israel. Thank you for your courage and your honesty. God bless you, and uphold you and your family.
Well said and in line with Biblical Prophecy.We will pray for Israel, the EU/Un.
Maranatha friend.
What a wonderful letter - G-d will - one day - remove the UN and EU - it’s a matter of time - He is still in control of all - thank you for not standing still and taking action as you did - Hope this letter makes it to the News Media - and is printed in Arutz7!
The LION is roaring over you Stan! Can you hear Him? He is well pleased with you - His Watchman - whom He has called. Today you have blessed Him greatly! “For Jerusalem’s sake I will not be silent…”
He roars over the nations as well - over the UN/EU - only these roars are not of pleasure or benediction. As you have spoken, they are roars of great wrath which are about to fall on all those who are so wickedly determined to ‘move’ that which the God of Israel has declared immoveable - Jerusalem - the city of the Great King, and the Throne of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah! He comes! Hallelujah!
Well said, thank you for sharing this! I wish that the U.S. government would also conider the ramifications of their actions, thoughts and deeds.
Beautifully said. As a Christian, I believe we owe a debt of gratitude to the Jewish people. You gave us the word of God, the Patriarchs- Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the holy family, Joseph, Mary and Jesus and the Apostles. Judaism does not need Christianity to explain it’s existence. But Christianity cannot explain it’s existence without Judaism. For Israel’s sake, I will not keep silent!
“Jesus is coming soon for His bride!” Lets be ready…so much is happening all over the world that was prophesied in the word of GOD. It was the best of times and the worst of times. I am so very, very excited to know that through the blood of Jesus I have been made whole. If anyone out there has not made Jesus Christ your savior, you can do so right now. Repent of you sins to God, turn from your wicked ways and ask Jesus to come into your heart and the Holy Spirit will come inside you and you will be born again. The choise is yours, God loves you!
He will win, do you know why? It is in the Book.
Truthfully written, Stan. May G-d enable the government and people of Israel to stand up against such evil plans of men.
Greetings From Australia Stan
I wish to commend you highly for your forthrite statement from Scripture to the U.N./E.U. proponents of this latest attempt to intimidate Gods People Israel. May you continue to “Stand Strongly on The Word Of God”
Awesome letter! Leave it up to a man of God to do the work for the government–and that goes for the European Union, the United States AND Israeli government who are incapable of delivering such a warning.
Bravo Stan!
And it is only in the Name of Yeshua that the letter has its weight in gold.
This is the best news I’ve gotten all year. Regardless if they listen or they don’t listen. The WORD AND WARNING HAS GONE OUT.
Amen!
Ezekiel 3! We are not responsible for them to listen, but we ARE responsible to deliver the message.
There is one other option you neglected to mention: They can surrender to Jesus Christ, receive him now as their Lord and Savior, and then letr Him lead them to the right choice!
As always, well stated.
Keep up the good work with these articles. I very much enjoy reading them, and I admire your dedication to stand up and speak the truth regardless of how much the truth isn’t liked, or even despised.
People of Israel who love CHRIST FEAR NOT!
For the LORD of your forefathers WILL FIGHT for you, make your TRUST to HIS WORD bigger than the nations around you. There are Christians praying for your nation here in Asia.
Let’s just stay close with CHRIST in this endtimes.
The WORD of the LORD says “be still and know that I’AM GOD”
Reminders: Isra-el = GOD (YHVH) will fight

Stan, I admire your courage in putting this letter out there. But I sincerely hope and pray that those of your readers and supporters, who pray so faithfully; those who are in countries where they are able to reach UN and EU personnel, will go to the trouble of forwarding this warning to them.
We need to add feet to our prayers and protestations of support, nu?
Stan, the Lord has His hand on you my brother! Praise G_d for your courage and boldness! My prayer for you is that the Lord would continue to strenghten you in your inner man; that He would place a hedge of protection around you, your wife, your children, your loved ones, your family, and your friends! May the Lord keep you and all of yours safely until the day that He returns for His redeemed! God richly bless you and make His face to shine upon you!
Thank you Stan for writting this letter to the UN/EU. You are so right on. I think I will copy it if you don’t mind and send to the United States of America’s president. He is aideing these people to divide Jerusalem. Maybe you can join me in sending this to him as well as everyone who supports Israel. president obama needs to know that we along with many other people around the world supports Israel’s rights to exists and to the land. There will be no dividing of Jerusalem!
Thanks and keep on.
Stan, you are a Watchman! I applaud your courage and i too hope and pray that all will pray in earnest about this. Benjamin Franklin McMillan you hit the nail on the head. Surrender friends to the Lord Almighty!!
Yes “it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.”
The eight day “Festival of Lights” is coming beginning December 12, 5770.
I see at it as “A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel” Luke 2:32 The motto used by the Jews during the Maccabbe revolt was, “Who is like you O Lord, among the mighty”. When you take the first letter of each word in the Hebrew, they spell MACCABEE. Thus they became known as the Maccabees. When the one day of oil burned for eight full days , this began the “Feast of Dedication”. We all need to be dedicated to Jesus through His word, because the Word of God was made flesh to dwell among us!!!
Here are some beautiful scriptures…….
1Kgs.11:36 And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there.
Pss.43:3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles..
Pss.119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
John.1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Acts.26:23 That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
Dan.12:1-3 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever
Amos. 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD. The famine is here because of the rejection of the of the Light of Jesus as “The way, the truth and the life, and the only way to God the Father!!..Just as God preformed a miracle there with the Maccabees, lets all put our trust in the Lord as we prove our love for Him by keeping His precious word in our hearts, where he looks at us at!
Fabulous!!!
How your heart cries to make them understand. I hope for everyone sake their ears are unstopped. The warnings are going out.
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is in total control. He laughs at the nations as they plan the division of His Land. Keep writing, keep praying, keep interceeding; He hears and sees every word written and spoken. Very well written, Brother Stan. God be with you and I wish I was there!
EZEKIEL 3: 10-11
10 And he said to me, “Son of man, listen carefully and take to heart all the words I speak to you. 11 Go now to your countrymen in exile and speak to them. Say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says,’ whether they listen or fail to listen.”
Warning to Israel
16 At the end of seven days the word of the LORD came to me: 17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. 18 When I say to a wicked man, ‘You will surely die,’ and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life, that wicked man will die for [a] his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. 19 But if you do warn the wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his evil ways, he will die for his sin; but you will have saved yourself.
EZEKIEL 3:16-21
16 At the end of seven days the word of the LORD came to me: 17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. 18 When I say to a wicked man, ‘You will surely die,’ and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life, that wicked man will die for [a] his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. 19 But if you do warn the wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his evil ways, he will die for his sin; but you will have saved yourself.
20 “Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. Since you did not warn him, he will die for his sin. The righteous things he did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. 21 But if you do warn the righteous man not to sin and he does not sin, he will surely live because he took warning, and you will have saved yourself.”
I can not wait until Jesus, The Christ, returns to “Rule and reign with a rod of Iron.” Putting right all that has been done against God’s chosen people and land. I count it all joy to know that I have been grafted into that group of people through Jesus, and will someday get to see things put back into order. I am not as patient or loving as God in Heaven and would like to see Chris return right now. I plead for the unsaved to come to Christ today. But I fear there is no hope for some. I also weep for those who have hardened their hearts towards this loving God and who will spend eternity apart from Him. God help them. Come quickly Lord Jesus!!
God bless you Stan. I check in every now and then to see your posts.
Praise God Stan For The Mighty God Of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob has Placed You In This Place For This Hour Of Judgement About To Come Upon The Whole Earth.. Keep On Keeping On & Know That There Are Many Of Us Here In America Praying For You And Your’s Daily
May God Bless You Richly
Amen and Amen!!! G-D bless ha etrez Yisrael.
We were only allowed 2500 words in an email to the White House, so we took the most important parts of Stan’s post and linked to it in our letter to Mr. Obama. We also went to the Press Office to find that, once again, on 12/3/09, the President has excused away the building of a U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem and allowed full funds to be spent supporting U.S. buildings on foreign soil… a condition of completing the Embassy by 1999 was that if it was not done funds were to be withheld from offshore facilities.
Isn’t this like somehow not having to pay for a traffic violation?
Here is the wording of the Jerusalem Embassy Relocation Act:
“The President may waive the fifty percent spending restriction on U.S. buildings abroad beginning in October 1998 for six month periods, and then only if he determines and reports to Congress that such a suspension is necessary to protect the national security interests of the United States and details how such interests would be affected.”
from: http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/US-Israel/Jerusalem_Relocation_Act.html
and the memorandum of suspension is here:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/presidential-memorandum-suspension-limitations-under-jerusalem-embassy-act
You’ll notice that the required report is not included/attached.
Americans reading this!! WRITE to your elected representatives, especially those still in office who passed (by a HUGE majority) the Relocation Act. How can this be done in these United States?!?!?
All Heaven is going to break loose soon and very soon. May He be merciful to those of us who look to Him!
Let God arise and His enemies be scattered!
We cannot give up and we cannot become disheartened. Just as in days of old, we shout the praise to God for his soon coming deliverer! Just as in Ez. 37 the dry bones have been breathed on and life is and has returned to His people.
Yes agree with you . Israel will never be completely devastate . Israel would make
a faster recovery if the people of Israel would apply leviticus 5:5 to there personal
lives to G_d the father. Leviticus 26:40 says the same thing .
This would eliminate the situation like in Numbers 16 : Korah , Dathan , Abiram
offering strange fire also had not sanctify themselves . If all the people of Israel
would sanctify themselves and pray to G_d the Father for help . Then USSR China
and the United States combined could not defeat Israel .
I pray that the people personally and as a Nation accept our Savior and Lord as there`s.Then shall the Nation be healed , It`s in The Book!
