A biblical, end-time prophecy is unfolding before our eyes that many Christians fail to see. This event is seldom mentioned in the Christian church and is strangely absent from the messages of her fiery “last-days prophets.”
It is the return of the Jews back to their Promised Land. The Hebrew term for this end-time event is “Aliyah.”
There are a few Christian and Jewish organizations that are co-laboring to bring the Jews back to their Land. They are engaged in what I will refer to as “traditional Aliyah.” They send a team into a region to assist the Jews with procuring their documents and passports, transporting them to and from the Israeli Consulate, and often-times paying for their flights to Israel where they will be absorbed into Israeli society.
I use the term, traditional aliyah, to differentiate it from what I call “extreme aliyah.” In other words, traditional aliyah is the current process used to get the Jews home, but extreme aliyah may be the process in a time, much like the European holocaust, when the traditional methods of their return will be impossible.
Am Israel Chai - עַם יִשְׂרָאֵל חַי -
“The people of Israel live” is a Jewish solidarity anthem and a widely used expression of Jewish peoplehood and an affirmation of the continuity of the Jewish people. The phrase gained popularity during the Student Struggle for Soviet Jewry, when Jewish songwriter Shlomo Carlebachcomposed the eponymous song for the movement's 1965 solidarity rally in New York City.
The Forward has placed "Am Yisrael Chai" second only to Hatikvah, the national anthem of Israel, as "an anthem of the Jewish people".
In fulfillment of biblical prophecy, the Jews are returning from the four corners of the earth back to their ancestral homeland. The Hebrew term for this process of the Jews returning to Israel is “aliyah.” Aliyah literally means to “go up,” as in the scriptures that talk about “going up” to Jerusalem. Other terms for this end time return of the Jews is “The Greater Exodus,” The Second Exodus,” or what I am calling the “Far Country Exodus.”
Aliyah is biblical; consider the words of Jeremiah:
“So then, the days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when people will no longer say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites up out of Egypt,’ but they will say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of Israel up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’ Then they will live in their own land.” (Jeremiah 23:7-8)
Antisemitism is prejudice against or hatred of the Jews.
The Holocaust, the state-sponsored persecution and murder of European Jews by Nazi Germany and its collaborators, is history's most extreme example of antisemitism. Violent antisemitism and hatred did not end with the defeat of Nazi Germany.
It is important to stand up to antisemitism in all its forms today.

The purpose of this initiative is to prepare a “highway” for the Jews to return from the far-countries of the earth back to Israel during a time of great calamity.
The scriptural basis for this initiative is found in Isaiah 62:10. “Pass through, pass through the gates, prepare the way for the people. Build up, build up the highway, remove the stones, raise a banner to the nations.”

Shalom! Thank you for your contributions that help fulfill the vision of the Far Country Exodus. This vision is three-fold:
First, to assist aliyah organizations that are already engaged in bringing the Jews back to their ancestral homeland. Currently, many of these organizations employ a model that I call “traditional” aliyah. They help Jewish immigrants obtain their paperwork and visas and assist in transporting them to and from the Israeli Consulate offices. Once the necessary documents are all prepared and final travel arrangements are made, immigrants are transported to airports where they are then flown home to Israel by the Jewish Agency.
Second, to raise awareness of rising global antisemitism, and to unmask the deception that is escalating among those who should know better…the church in the West.
And third, to prepare a way for the Jews in the event of an “extreme” aliyah. In other words, if traditional aliyah is the current process to get the Jews home, extreme aliyah would be the process in a time, much like the European holocaust, when the traditional methods of return would be impossible.
