Waterdog thanks for the post, I have a lot of respect for Mark Hitchcock, I have read his first book and will be getting this new one coming out.
The first one was questions and answers about 'End-Times' I can't recall the name of it, I leant it out and never got it back.
So I agree with him, this is not the end, but just one of the sign post along the way.

I read in the paper that some think it is the 7th trumpet, armagedon. But the 7 seals and the first 6 trumpets have'nt happened yet. When the U.S. wins WWIII then you will know its time.

The bombing of Baghdad does not mean the end is near - only the beginning of the end, according to one scholar.

"Hitchcock somewhat bristles at those who point to the war as the fulfillment of some obscure Bible passage. For example, Saddam Hussein can be translated "Destroyer," which also is the word for Abaddon, the army leader in Revelation 9, Verse 11 - yes, 9:11 - who is filled with evil."
"The problem is that Abaddon is the king of the abyss, which is the underworld. I don't think that is Saddam, but Satan or a demon," Hitchcock said. "I think it's wrong to [broadcast incorrect conclusions], but it's also wrong to go to the other extreme and say there are no signs of the times at all. I try to come down in between."

So let us go forth to Him outside the camp (Heb 13:11-14)
