Enter the Old City via the Dung Gate and visit the Temple Mount, site of the Al Aksa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock. Walk through Arab and Jewish markets on the way to the basement of the Burnt House, consumed by fire in 70 AD. After lunch, visit the Temple Mount by the Western (Wailing) Wall, sacred to Judaism and the archaeological ruins of the ancient Jebusite City of David, built over Gihon Spring. Continue on to the Garden Tomb north of the Old City, illustrating Calvary and the Empty Tomb of Christ.

The military occupation of the West Bank has left many Palestinian families impoverished. In visiting the Bethlehem area we will have an opportunity at the Deheisheh Refugee Camp to leave a gift of clothing for children and adults. It is not possible to send these items to Israel because of the heavy taxes imposed on items from abroad. So as a group, we will aim to carry some love in our luggage. Further information on the Suitcase ministry will be provided after you register. All it takes is a little extra room in your suitcase.

Spend seven incredible days studying
Bible prophecy where it was fulfilled in
the Holy Land...

Dear friend,

Have you ever read the Bible and wished you could have been there--when Jesus gave the Olivet Discourse, and predicted the consummation of redemption at the fall of Jerusalem?

Or what about strolling alongside the Sea of Galilee where Jesus first taught about the End of the Age to fishermen from Capernaum.

Now you can experience the heights of Bible prophecy in the very biblical places where it was fulfilled!

This fall I will be leading a study tour to the Holy Land to help people understand the ancient and modern context of eschatology.

This is one 7-day study tour you will never forget!

Our group will explore the excavations of the hilltop at Meggido, overlooking the plains of Armageddon, as we reflect on the fulfilled battle of Revelation.

We will visit a first century village, recreated right in Nazareth, showing how Jesus was raised by Mary and Joseph, and where he first realized that he would play a role in the climax of Israel's history.

When we get to Jerusalem, we will stay on the Mount of Olives, opposite and above the Old City, where Jesus and his disciples always stayed, and where Jesus ascended from into heaven and where he returned in AD 70.

We will tour the Bethlehem area, and see first hand the ill-effects that "God-at-War" theology and mis-guided millennialism have had on both Jewish and Arab communities, during a critical time, when Palestinians and Israelis are striving for peace.

Finally, we will spend a whole day at the Dead Sea, and take a cable car to the top of Masada, the site where Jewish zealots held out from a Roman siege, only to finally take their lives in A.D. 73, ending the Jewish state.

There has never been a fulfilled Bible prophecy tour like this!

And there is even more... Each night we will have an outside speaker share how biblical places relate to Bible prophecy, in topics like: "Jesus and the Second Jewish Temple" or "Post 70 A.D.: the New Covenant and the Mount of Olives," or "Jerusalem and Millennium Madness--a tragic history."

Imagine returning home and discovering new ways to share eschatology with others, having visited the biblical places which illustrate all the bible prophecy passages you have learned so well.

That is why you need to join us Sept. 9 -16th on HOLY LAND 2001, the first Transmillennial® Study Tour. Mark your calendar now for this special week, dates TBA

The cost is just $1,995 per person, including air travel from Newark, hotels, touring, morning/evening meals and our study program lectures. That is a great price, believe me!

Because of the popularity of this trip, and our desire to keep our group intimate, we are having to limit the tour to three-dozen people. So it is not to early to make your reservation.

It is not too early to make reservations. Secure your place on our tour this month with a $400 per person deposit, made payable to Presence Ministries.

You will be amazed at how the Word of God will come alive having seen where Jesus consummated Israel's history for all time.

Yours in His Presence,

Timothy R. King
