This just 'hit' me as I read the article at the link below... Check out what I found on FoxNews this morning:

Iran Hid Nuclear Plans for Nearly 2 Decades


This is one 'heck' of a story. I'm definitely going to watch the show on FoxNews Channel on Sunday night (details are in the above link)

Are the Gog-Magog battle lines being drawn?

In Ezekiel Chapters 36 and 37, the Israelites return to the mountains of Israel as the Israelis, which happened in 1948 A.D., so that Ezekiel 36 and 37 are completed.

After that comes immediately Ezekiel Chapters 38 and 39; there is nothing inbetween Ezekiel 36-37 and Ezekiel 38-39 starts the Gog-Magog war.

I have said before that the word Gog is an English rendition of the much more gutteral kauk or cauc, namely the tribes who were connected to the cauc-asus and to the caucasus pass through the caucasus mountains, which connected west Asia with Europe and with the Eurasian grass plains.

The caucasian region, the Russian region. But note again, nothing happens between Ezekiel 36-37 and Ezekiel 38-39:

Ezekiel 38
2 Son of man, set your face against Gog {Russia}, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,

3 And say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.

4 And I will turn you and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you forth, and all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armor, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.

5 Persia (Iran), Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet.

6 Gomer, and all his bands {the Black Sea region}; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters {Turkey), and all his bands: and many people with you.

7 Be prepared, and prepare for yourself, you and all your company that are assembled unto you, and you be a guard unto them. {protect them with your nuclear arsenal}

8 After many days shall you be visited: in the latter years you shall come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which was always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.

9 You shall ascend and come like a storm, you shall be like a cloud to cover the land, you, and all your bands, and many people with you.

10 Thus says the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into your mind, and you shall think an evil thought.

11 And you shall say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates.

12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn your hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, who have gotten cattle and goods, dwell in the midst of the land.

13 Sheba and Dedan {Saudi Arabia et al.), and the merchants of Tarshish {Europe and the United States, et al.), with all the young lions thereof, shall say to you, Are you come to take a spoil? Have you gathered your company to take a prey? To carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, Thus says the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwells safely, shall you not know it?

15 And you shall come from your place out of the north parts, you, and many people with you, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army.

16 And you shall come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring you against my land, that the heathen may know Me, when I shall be sanctified in you, O Gog, before their eyes.

18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, says the Lord GOD, that My fury shall come up in My face.

19 For in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;

20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at My presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.

21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all My mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man's sword shall be against his brother.

22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire and brimstone.

23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.

May the LORD God of Israel bless us all. BORN AGAIN [Cross]

Of course it could be tomorrow, next week, or next year too...

Its ok, to watch for it and be ready. But be careful about becoming obsessed. We (as Christians) have work to do!

We may be hundreds, thousands... or even more years from the end... There's always enough evidence out there to build a case either way...

All around this world of ours there are teachers, preachers, and lay man who have been called by God to do His work in furthering the work of His Kingdom. These teachers, preachers, and layman are winning countless millions to Jesus Christ and they will continue to do so as led by the Holy Spirit who dwells within them. They do this with love and humility and they have the fruit of the spirit which can be known in all that they say and do. I'm certain that time is short and the time should be used to winning souls to Jesus Christ just as these teachers, preachers, and lay man are doing! God blesses each and every one of them greatly and he increases their blessings as told about in His word.


In Christ's love,

Are the Gog-Magog battle lines being drawn?

quote:
Why did Russian President Vladimir Putin decide to sell shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missiles to Syria? The answer lies in the following excerpt from a Haaretz news story on the topic:

The missiles "will of course make it difficult to fly over the residence of the Syrian president," Putin bluntly stated Wednesday. "It will make flying low difficult," implying what has long been believed to be the reason for the sale of the anti-aircraft missiles: Syrian embarrassment over Israeli air force planes "buzzing" presidential palaces in Syria to issue warnings to Syrian President Bashar Assad.

How interesting! I don't know why he didn't just come right out and say, "We did it so Syria could shoot down Israeli air forces."

quote:
The Bible predicts in Ezekiel 38 & 39, an attack on the nation of Israel is going to take place in the prophetic future which will be spearheaded by Russia who will be joined by an alliance of Arab nations.
quote:
Bible prophecy tells us an alliance of Russian and Arab military forces will massively attack the nation of Israel in the prophetic future. For the first time I'm personally aware of, we see Israel is setting a date for when an event of this magnitude may take place, based on intelligence it is receiving! The year 2006!
There is A Lot in this article. It goes through the prophecies in Ezekiel as well as pointing out what God said will happen to Damascus in Isaiah. Things are Speeding Up!
We have been Painfully made aware on this BBS lately of the Falling Away that’s happening in many churches and congregations.

2 Thes. 3Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

Time is SHORT! If you haven’t already given your life to Jesus, then NOW is the time!

Is Anybody Good Enough On Their Own Mertis?

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one. ~Romans 3:10~

Who Is Guilty of Sin?

For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. ~Romans 3:23~

(Sin – in a nutshell – is rebellion against God (Disobedience). Refusing to live according to HIS Word – The Bible – trying to be the masters of our own lives.)

Where Did Sin Come From?

Wherefore, as by one man [Adam] sin entered into the world, and death by sin, and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned. ~Romans 5:12~

God's Judgement On Sin and the Price that Must be Paid

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. ~Romans 6:23~

Who Is The Only One Who Can Pay The Price?

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that , while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. ~Romans 5:8~

If You’ve Realized That You Are A Sinner In Need of The Only One (Jesus) Who Could Ever Pay The Price For Your Sin, Here’s What God Says You Must Do To Be Saved:

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, the Lord Jesus, and shalt
believe in thine heart God hath raised him from the dead thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and
with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
~Romans 10:9-10~

(Believing is more then just ‘knowing’ something is true, it’s living by it as well. This also requires Repentance; a turning away from the sin in your life.)

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. ~Romans 10:13~

Take God at his word and claim His promise for your salvation. If you want to be free from being a non-believer or a make-believer here is an example of a prayer you can use to ask the Lord to come into your heart and change you:

Dear Heavenly Father,
I know I am a sinner. I believe Jesus died for my sins and paid for them all. Will You please forgive me of all my sins and trespasses against You and against others and make my heart new? I Repent (turn away) from my Sins and ask that you send your Holy Spirit into my heart to change me. I believe in You, Lord Jesus. I believe You died and rose again. I invite You to come into my heart right now. I accept You as my Lord and my Savior. Please help me from now on to focus on You and Your will for my life. Help me to walk in Your ways.

This I ask in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
