The Flood of Evil from Satan’s Mouth!

The Flood of Evil from Satan’s Mouth!

“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him…….Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.”Revelation 12:7-9, 12
“And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.”Revelation 12:15-17
“For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke. According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands will he repay recompence. So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord.”Isaiah 59:17-20
In this issue of the Last Trumpet Newsletter, we will examine a prevailing condition that has engulfed the entire world and is caused by the manifestation of satanic devices. We live in a chaotic world that is unique to all of history. Never has it been as it now is. People who are at least fifty years old, if they can still think after all the brainwashing they have received, can and should realize that this world is not the one they were born into. A great transition and metamorphosis has occurred.
We live in a world that has been seized upon by Satan and his fallen angels, or demon spirits. The above Scriptures make that very clear. These Scriptures also tell us that in the very last days, Satan would cast a flood out of his mouth, a flood of filth and deception so great and pervasive that it would be able to engulf the entire world. Can any thinking person doubt that this is the very case at this present time? We live in a poisoned society -- a world of microwave radiation and cell phones that induce cancer. It is a world where almost everything is packaged in plastics, which have been proven to leach into the food and beverages and incite sex hormones and eventually cause cancer. We live in an electronic smog, as the evil prince of the powers of the air floods the airwaves with filth, using fiber optics and satellite transmissions to permeate the earth with computer-generated Internet filth that ensnares the entire earth with a net and world-wide web. It is a marketplace for hell’s commerce. Thankfully, just as the Apostle Paul went into the heathen market places with the Gospel, so we can invade and attack the gates of an electronic hell!
It is a strange and grotesque world indeed with scalar waves, elf waves, and chemtrails all used in weather modification at least to some extent. This new age is also a world of new sicknesses and pestilences, and it seems that almost everyone is on some type of prescription drug while new drugs come forth continually. Strangely enough, people are so desperate and deceived that they clamor for these drugs even though the list of side effects is far worse than the problem each drug is supposed to treat.
The collective society of this present world is a managed herd of enslaved humans as the text Scriptures of this issue of the Last Trumpet states, “…..the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.” At the same time, this voracious craving for Satan’s flood by the world helps every true and discerning Christian to stay faithful, for we can clearly see the effect of the deception and devices of the satanic spiritual saliva as satan turns this world into a hellish cuspidor!
Clearly, the world is on its way to hell, and it is moving in that direction at break-neck speed. The good news is that you don’t have to go along with it. There is so little time left, but if you are still reading this, there is time right now for you to put this newsletter down for a moment and give your heart, mind, will, and emotions to the Lord Jesus Christ. Do it with full repentance, and do it now. Eternity is just ahead, and you will spend it somewhere! The gracious Saviour will come into your life and give you peace and salvation when you fully obey the Gospel!
Countdown to Doomsday!
On January 19th, 2007, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported that the Transatlantic Group of Prominent Scientists moved the symbolic doomsday clock two minutes closer to midnight, or the end of the world. It is now set at five minutes before midnight. It is only the fourth time the doomsday clock has been moved forward since the end of the cold war. Even the ungodly scientists seem to know that the end is coming soon. They moved the clock forward for two reasons. Their own words were, “The world is nudging closer to nuclear apocalypse and environmental disaster.” (1) It is strange that even though they make no reference to God, they can still clearly see the signs of the times.
Scientists have plans to construct what they call a doomsday vault near the North Pole. It is a vault to be located deep into the permafrost, and it will contain three million batches of seeds from all known varieties of the planet’s crops. The scientists have given it the name Noah’s Ark of Food. (2) The ungodly scientists plan to make an entry to the vault in a mountainside with a narrow triangular cement and steel door, which they said will be illuminated with artwork that changes according to Arctic light. (3)
Strange things are indeed happening. In a report from State College, Pennsylvania, on February 14th, 2007, our nation’s honeybee industry is in deep trouble because of a mystery ailment that has already killed over fifty percent of the honeybees in twenty states. This also threatens crops that need the bees for cross-pollination. (4)
Truly, signs of the times are everywhere. Volcanoes are continuing to wake up, and tremors shook portions of Nicaragua during the middle of January 2007 as the Telica Volcano erupted and sent columns of ash high above the 3,576 foot crater, threatening Nicaragua’s second largest city of Leon. During that same week, thousands of buildings were damaged in Red China as an earthquake shook the Gansu Province. Meanwhile, in Australia thousands of birds simultaneously dropped dead in flight and fell from the sky over the western beach town of Esperance. (5)
Other earthquakes that struck in mid-January and early February 2007 included the Sandwich Islands-magnitude 6.5, western Norway-magnitude 4, northeastern Indonesia-magnitude 7.3, and Cuba-magnitude 6.1; just to name a few. (6) We also saw severe weather, including extreme cold and devastating amounts of snow, throughout the mid-section of the United States and especially in the Eastern states. Even Arizona in the southwestern portion of our country was hit with a freak storm that left twelve inches of snow. (7)
In Indonesia, another volcano continues to spew hot mud from its crater, which has already engulfed 24,000 homes. The Indonesians have been performing rituals to try to stop the volcano and have cast many cows, goats, chickens, and monkeys into the boiling crater, but to no avail. The Indonesians also offered a beautiful new house to any magic-man who could stop the volcano, and as soon as the rituals began, the volcano erupted again and completely buried the beautiful prize house. (8)
On February 2nd, the very day of the witches’ high cross-quarter sabat of Imolge (pronounced im-bolc), a devastating tornado ripped through Florida. It was reported that one of the funnel clouds was a whopping half mile in diameter. Nineteen people were killed and many others were injured. Property damage was wide-spread as more than 1,500 buildings, including churches, were damaged or destroyed. (9) Among the debris of one church that lay in ruins with wooden crosses strewn everywhere, song books were found open to the song “I Surrender All.” Is that a warning to the rest of our nation?
Both ancient and modern witches believe that the February 2nd sabat of Imolge, which means in the belly in Gaelic, is the day when the new spring begins to move within the womb of “Mother Earth.” On February 14th, which is known by witches as Lupercalia – the day of the wolf and by others as Valentine’s Day, everyone is encouraged to participate in sensual climactic acts to induce “Mother Earth” to reach a climax, which is believed to cause the new spring to blossom on time. Witches believe that the flowers and trees awaken because of this sex-act between “Mother Earth” and the “Force” from the astral plane. However, God sends judgment appropriate for their error.
On January 19th, 2007, eastern Europe was slammed with winds of 200 kph (120 mph), which cut a trail and left a path of destruction across an entire continent. Cars and buildings were battered, and millions were without power. From Poland to Hungary, and from the Czech Republic to Romania, damage was everywhere. Even in Britain and other western European nations, one hundred mph winds shook the European continent. (10) There were death and destruction in every nation of the European Union.
Meanwhile, in space another incident took place on that witches’ sabat of February 2nd, 2007. The International Space Station had to be moved and repositioned because of Red Chinese laser destruction of a nearby satellite that scattered over five hundred large portions of debris into the same orbit of many of the U.S. communications and spy satellites. (11)
For some time now, the numerous witch covens in America have been casting spells toward their astral plane, and they believe that they have the power to summon spirits to appear in the sky. They take full credit for it. On January 25th, 2007, 911 emergency calls were coming in all over North Carolina. Callers described fire in the sky and objects with a bluish glow. (12) This same thing was happening in many other parts of the country. From Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Des Moines, Iowa, and St. Louis, Missouri, a flood of 911 calls came in on February 5th, 2007, reporting balls of fire in the sky. (13) Three days later on February 8th, 2007, mysterious lights appeared in the sky over Phoenix, Arizona, and many witnesses said the lights were moving in formation. (14) I have personally seen such lights moving in geometric patterns. These are certainly signs in the sky!
On January 28th, 2007, a very unpleasant and foul odor was hanging over and throughout New York City. The New Yorkers were quick to blame New Jersey for it. No one seems to know for sure what the odor and stench is and where it is coming from according to all of the reports I have read. (15) The odor prevailed primarily from Central Park to the Battery in Manhattan, and some people went to urgent care facilities because of breathing difficulties. There were also some precautionary evacuations. What was it? We know it has happened before in that city. Here let it be noted that there is an old saying among chemists as follows: “If it stinks, it has sulfur in it.” Perhaps many people have never smelled rhombic sulfur, also known as brimstone. It was the flaming and stinking rocks of brimstone that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and that same smell could be now visiting New York City from time to time. It could be the smell of hell visiting Sodom-on-the-Hudson. This same smell is also found just before and during a volcanic eruption. It is later than you may think!
Who Will Set the Spark Off?
As the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan continue and the rest of the world is in a state of unrest, we must remember that the first war ever fought was fought in Heaven. The one who started it was Satan, and he was cast out to the earth. Here on earth, this so-called god of war is now working his final plan to bring every human being under his dominion; by force, if necessary. Satan is the very spirit of war and his demons are militant spirits. We must keep that in mind when we hear President George W. Bush proudly say, “I am a war President.” President Bush is also known as Mr. Embarrassment, but his successor will be no better; just evil in a different way. This war President, George W. Bush, has now sent Congress a 2.9 trillion dollar spending plan. Furthermore, while the President is asking for billions more dollars for fighting wars, he intends to cut Medicare and Medicade by 78 billion dollars. (16)
Another expenditure is in the form of a contract for 385 million dollars, which was signed on the witches’ sabat of February 2nd, 2007. This contract was awarded to KBR, the engineering and contractor subsidiary of Haliburton, which is Vice President Cheney’s former employer. The contract was given through the Department of Homeland Security for the construction of a number of what are called detention, processing, and enforcement facilities by the respected Market Watch Magazine. (17) That is exactly what Adolph Hitler called his concentration camps.
On January 25th, 2007, the U.S. Military announced from Moody Air Force Base in Georgia that they have a new non-lethal ray gun that shoots a beam which makes people feel as if they are on fire. It is designed for use in crowd control, and it hits people with temporary 130 degree Fahrenheit heat. It makes them feel like their clothes will catch fire, and this completely disables them. It is effective from five hundred yards away. (18)
The world is in a state of chaos as wars and rumors of wars continue. Iranian President Ahmadinejad recently announced that Iran now has nuclear weapons. (19) The Iranian government has also reported that they have 1,400 uranium mines in their country. (20) Iran has also boasted that they have installed 3,000 centrifuges and other uranium tools used in making weapons-grade nuclear materials. (21)
On December 20th, the eve of the witches’ sabat of Yule, President Bush announced that the United States must increase the size of the U.S. Army and Marines. (22) On December 24th, 2006, the U.S. Selective Service announced their plans to conduct a “draft exercise.” Scott Campbell, the director of operations and chief information officer for the Selective Service stated that it is only a test to see if everything works from the upper levels right on down to the local draft boards. They are also concerned with plans to effectively deal with those who claim to be conscientious objectors. (23)
The U.S. Military also announced that since they are falling well short of recruiting goals, they plan to recruit foreigners into the armed forces. There are plans to open recruiting offices overseas and to offer foreigners specially expedited U.S. citizenship if they sign up for military service. (24)
It is true that mistakes happen, but it seems that U.S. Government blunders are excessively common. In December 2006, the U.S. Army sent letters to 5,100 Army officers, many of whom were dead, and urged them to re-enlist. (25) There is not a ghost of a chance that they are going to get a response to those letters.
On February 12th, 2007, the Washington Post reported that the FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, lost 160 laptop computers and cannot find them anywhere! Ten of these computers contained highly sensitive classified information, and one of them held personal identifying information on FBI personnel! Fifty-one of the computers also contained secret data. In addition to that, hundreds of weapons were missing. (26)
All of these strange things are happening at a time when the world is more sensitive than it ever has been. Russia has incited anger and hatred in Europe by cutting off the petroleum pipeline from Russia to Europe. (27) Russia also seized upon and took over the Shell oil refining facilities in that country. The Kremlin took control of Royal Dutch Shell’s Sakhalin-2 Project and has issued a stern warning to BP Oil Company in Russia. (28) We must remember that all of the oil is not in the Middle East. The Crimean oil fields of Russia contain some of the largest reserves in the world, and they were stolen from the Nobel family after the Bolshevik revolution.
Another area where tension is running high is the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Israeli repair workers were doing some excavating to repair a ramp to the area located close to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the third most holy shrine in Islam. Severe violence broke out as Moslems feared for their mosque. The work has been temporarily suspended. (29) The mosque is built on the site of the Hebrew temple, and there is a powerful movement that intends to replace the mosque with a rebuilt Jewish temple. This is an act that would no doubt cause an immediate World War III.
American Economy on Life Support!
The economy of the United States of America was once the strongest in the world. What happened? According to Financial Times Magazine, the Euro, which is only five years old, has overtaken the U.S. dollar on the world market. The value of Euro notes in circulation has now exceeded the value of the U.S. dollar notes in circulation. (30) Financial Times Magazine also reported on February 12th, 2007, that America’s profit growth is coming to an abrupt end, and a low earnings growth environment is upon us. (31) The level of personal savings by the people of the United States is now at its lowest level since the Great Depression of seven decades ago. (32) It is also a sad fact that the average American family now carries a high-interest credit card debt of thirteen thousand dollars. With that in mind, why did our U.S. Government send twelve billion dollars cash in shrink-wrapped packages of one hundred dollar bills to Iraq and then give the cash away without any record of accountability? One CPA official stated that Iraq was awash with one hundred dollar bills. One contractor was paid two million dollars in a duffle bag full of the shrink-wrapped bills. Much of the money disappeared after being brought in on a C-130 cargo plane and is thought to have fallen into the hands of the enemy.
Reconstruction Chairman Henry Waxman had this to say: “The way the cash had been handled was mind-boggling. The numbers are so large that it doesn’t seem possible that they are true. Who in their right mind would send 363 tons of cash into a war zone?” (33) What crafty and unscrupulous conspiracy was behind this? Is there a conspiracy that is trying to reduce the United States down to an interdependent and helpless unit of a one-world government? The following is an amazing quote from David Rockefeller, the chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations from 1970 to 1985 and the founder of the Trilateral Commission. The quote is found on page 405 of his autobiography Memoirs as follows: “Some even believe we (Rockefeller family) are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure – one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.” (34)
Who Owns Your Body?
These are strange times as the governments of the world take on the characteristics of the satanic beast and exert their power to control people and enslave them. On February 4th, 2007, the state of Texas has decided to force all school girls ages eleven and twelve to be vaccinated with Merck Pharmaceuticals’ human papillomavirus vaccine (HPV), also called gardasil. The virus is one that can cause cervical cancer, but it is only transmitted by sexual activity. The action that made this vaccine mandatory was not the action of the Texas Legislature but was done by the executive order of Governor Rick Perry, who bills himself as a conservative “Christian.” Reportedly, Governor Perry has several ties to Merck Pharmaceuticals, and Merck is expected to make 630 million dollars on this project over the next five years. It is estimated that 1.75 million girls will be vaccinated before they reach their teen years. (35)
There is overwhelming evidence that there is no such thing as a safe vaccine. In fact, there are many grave dangers in becoming a human voodoo doll at the hands of the medical profession, especially when it becomes mandatory by executive order. Does the government own your body? We must remember that the once rare condition of autism now affects 1 out of every 150 children. (36) There are strong links between vaccinations and autism. I personally have met a number of people who had normal children, but after vaccinations the children became autistic. There are now 560,000 autistic children in the United States! (37)
Another gimmick being used to control children through drugs is called TeenScreen. This a nation-wide program developed by a psychiatrist named David Shaffer, and it consists of a psychiatric examination of every child in America to determine if they have any suicidal tendencies. If it is determined that they do have such tendencies, psychiatric drugs can be prescribed. To find out which schools are using TeenScreen, you can go to http://www.teenscreenlocations.com/index.htm. (38)
Another example of oppression and abuse of power is the bill that has been introduced in Texas that requires parents to attend parent-teacher conferences or be fined five hundred dollars and be given a criminal record. (39) We have been warned, well in advance, that the days would come when the end-time beast would rise up to oppress the people of the Almighty. Those days are most certainly here. Thankfully, we have help from above, and by faith, all will be well!
A World Where Hell has been raised!
This Saturday evening is the Chinese New Year’s Eve, and it begins the year of the pig. Chinese soothsayers had the following to say about it: “The year of the pig signals conflicts before new world order.” (40) It is indeed a year of pigs as filth and immorality of every kind abounds. The Vatican City has now been declared the number one crime city per capita in the entire world. The Vatican City has a population of 492 citizens who committed 341 civil offenses and 486 criminal actions. That is 1.5 cases per person. These crimes happened even though there is one Swiss Guard member for every four people. (41)
In Milwaukee, Wisconsin, there were 11,152 emergency 911 calls from the public schools during the past school year. (42) In New York City, sex diseases are raging out of control with one of every ten girls infected with either gonorrhea or chlamydia. (43)
In England, figures now show that one hundred teenage girls per month have an abortion for the second time. (44) It has also been reported that England is anticipating an even greater sexual revolution, because beginning on Valentine’s Day, 2007, the sex drug Viagra will be sold over-the-counter. (45) England is also the place where a twelve year-old boy has had a sex change operation. Thus, a physically normal boy named Tim is now a girl named Kim. (46)
The entire world has gone mad with lust, and it is a sure sign of our Saviour’s return to judge the world in righteousness. That day cannot come too soon as far as I am concerned! In Holland, Dutch gyms are sponsoring “naked Sundays”, when people come to the gym for a nude workout. (47) Also in Holland in the city of Amsterdam, a Gay Pride celebration is to include a canal boat for homosexuals from eleven to sixteen years old. (48) The city of Amsterdam is also erecting a bronze statue dedicated to prostitutes around the world. The statue represents a self-assured woman with her hands on her hips, looking sideways towards the sky, and standing on a doorstep. This monument honoring all the prostitutes of the world has received the blessing of the city authorities. (49) So many things are happening that grieve the Holy Spirit of the Almighty One!
We know that the great sovereign acts of God and His Divine intervention happened at times when orders were given by the government to kill babies. When Pharaoh of Egypt gave the order to kill all of the male Hebrew babies, it was not long until God poured out the ten plagues on that idolatrous land and freed His people. We also know that the first coming of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, was at a time when King Herod ordered the killing of all the children that were age two and under. Historical references tell us that the way Herod accomplished this is that he held a festivity honoring all of the mothers while he provided government-sponsored child care. When the mothers voluntarily turned their children over to the government, the government killed them all. Afterward, the cry that went up was great and dreadful. Some things change so little.
In our country, many millions of babies have been killed before or during birth, and we have a government that permits it. In India, UNICEF reported that ten million baby girls have been killed by their parents in the past twenty years, because their culture is such that girls are more of an expense and liability. (50) What discerning Christian could doubt that the coming of the Saviour is at the very doors? Are you ready? Watch and pray!
In closing, I want to express my sincere thanks to all of you who support this end-time prophetic ministry. We continue to welcome your prayer requests. Grace and peace be multiplied unto you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Bush just doesn't get it! The Jeiwish condition in Israel, and coming events.

Bush just doesn't get it! The Jeiwish condition in Israel, and coming events.

Posted: Wednesday, March 07, 2007 - written by jerry golden

Every time that Rice tries to push Israel into an agreement with the Hamas led PA, terrible things happening in the US. I just read that she is scheduled to return to the Middle East on March 21to promote the Saudi Peace Plan, better known today as the Bush Road Map to Hell. The destruction of New Orleans and all the disasters that have followed including the horrible weather last week that killed so many just after Rice forced the meeting between Olmert and Abbas, it seems to mean nothing to Bush who seems to be driven to see the destruction of Israel at any cost in order to appease his Saudi friends.

Now we see a quick return trip by Rice to once again force Israel into a peace agreement with a people who have declared over an over that they will never rest until Israel is completely destroyed.

Hamas is a known Terrorist Organization on the list of Terrorist Organizations yet Bush is forcing Israel to talk with them, to make deals with them, my question and the one of many others here in Israel is when will the Jews of Israel raise up and say enough is enough, and kick this Sharon crony out of office? Unlike George Bush who has deceived many in the US into believing that he is a good Christian man, Olmert has not deceived the average Israeli we know who and what he is, yet we do nothing to get rid of him, it’s as if we are under some kind of spell.

We find ourselves in a web of corruption from the Prime Minister down through the ranks of authority in Israel. As for enforcement of the Law, our number one Police Officer has also been removed from office for corruption, our Finance Minister, and others in high places in the Knesset have been convicted of corruption and sex crimes including our President who has disgraced that office.

All of this corruption trickles down into the general public, crimes such as rape, murder, and break-ins. Yesterday Connie, Joel and I were sitting in a café in Herzilya and the number one crime boss walked in with his body guards. He was treated as if he was a great man, given all the respect you’d think only reserved for the highest VIP’s. The thought came to me, what is happening to this land that God has brought us back to, isn’t it time for the wrath of God to fall on Israel? Once again the majority of Jews in Israel have turned their back on God and once again we will see that God chasten those who He loves. And you can be sure He does love His people the Jews, I agree with many in asking why, but the fact remains He chose the Jews and He is GOD. But when we look back at the Inquisition, Pogroms, and the Holocaust it is only natural that we would say, God possibly you could choose some others for a while because we are tired.

With all the things said above it is still necessary for us to know that it was God who brought us back to the land against all odds that He promised our Forefathers, for the budding of the fig tree was possibly the greatest miracle any of us have ever witnessed. And it set the clock ticking for end time events. And the greatest end time event will be with the Messiah planting His feet on the Mount of Olives, and there will be no real peace until that event occurs.

There is however another one to consider, the anti-Christ for he will deceive many and convince them that he is the messiah of the Jewish people. For me it is easy to see the stage being set for his appearance, and I believe that event will be soon. But before it happens the world has to get into a much worse condition and more to the point Israel must become so destitute that they will accept this phony who will declare himself the Messiah. Then we will see what will look like peace for 3 ½ years, and then all hell will break lose on planet earth. This is as simple as it can be put, but many books can be written on the contents of this paragraph but when it is all said and done, that is how it is going to come down.

The future of Israel does not look good, so the obvious question you might want to pose to me is why bring the Jews to this place at this time. The answer is simple, Jews will have no other place to run, for anti-Semitism is on the rise and it will suddenly become impossible for Jews to live outside of Israel. For it is God’s plan to gather His people back to this Land and it is this place He will bring them back to Him through the second advent when the Messiah comes. It is at that time as well they will learn of His Name and be surprised that it was the one they rejected for 2,000 years. It will bring Ephraim and Judah together worshipping God in the presence of the Holy Spirit (Ruach Ha Koddesh).

You and I may not like this plan but God’s ways are not our ways, we still think with carnal minds, and God’s ways will always be true to His Word.
When God called us to this ministry I knew that others would not understand or support this move of God, we knew that only those who God touched by His Spirit would respond, so for those who have an ear to hear and the Spirit of God moves in them I can only say thank you Mishpochah (family) for together we must move forward in what we know to be the truth of God’s calling. For if we fail many who could be saved and brought back home to Israel will perish in Europe and elsewhere. The measure of our success is directly related to how hard we can work to save the Jews.

I am asked about the Jews of the US and elsewhere, what can we do for them? We have been working in local places in the US and elsewhere and places of refuge are being organized. But the bottom line is there will be no flights in or out of Israel when this thing comes down. All the Islamic Terrorist need to do is shoot down one commercial airline coming in or out of Israel to stop all flights. But flights may still be possible into Europe and with the proper planning these Jews can be brought to a place to be picked up and brought to Israel by boats. All of this of course takes tremendous planning and organization and lots of finances. With the finances the organization can move quickly but without it many will die who didn’t need to die.

I am also asked how you will be able to move boat loads of Jews through the Mediterranean Sea with so much military activity taking place. To begin with, to accept that as a fact would be to say we cannot save any because it is too dangerous to us. We have no choice but to set sail knowing that the Ruach Ha Koddesh (also the breath of God) will be in our sails and that our boats will be silent and fast enough to make the trips safely. Not all military vessels will be the enemy and with a faith in God and our ability to be as safe as possible we will be successful. Our greatest challenge beyond buying the larger boat http://www.thegoldenreport.com/asp/jerrysnewsmanager/anmviewer.asp?a=1089&z=2 is raising the finances to do the groundwork in Turkey, The Greek Islands, Cyprus, and getting the right people in place through out Europe, to do this the way it should be done would take a lot of money, the only way God has given me to raise this support is by these reports and the web-site. So the greatest possibility is for those who are reading this to become an evangelist for this Ministry, reaching others that God may lead them to. For my part, I simply must have the faith to believe God and that He will touch those that He would bless. Gen. 12:3.

I know this is a very hard article, but inmost cases the truth when told like it is, will not be accepted or understood, for many would rather have it over spiritualized or stated in a manner that the truth is not seen. That is not what God has called me to do. I have come to grips with the truth and it is not nice in the eyes of men, but it is God’s way of bringing this nation and the world back to him, for God’s love does not always make nice.

A Recommendation.

A Recommendation.

Posted: Thursday, March 01, 2007 - written by jerry golden

A friend talked me into doing something I hardly ever do, go to a movie. He told me to prepare myself that some of the language was rough but the violence was even much worse. I asked him why would I want to go to a movie with such a recommendation, his answer was, to open my eyes even further to what is happening in this world, that he thought I was blinded to the worlds problems because I was so wrapped up in saving Jews, that I needed to see this one. The contents were true and factual, that it was what is happening in a country. I told him I would think about it, and that night while listening to CNN (I know I don’t like them either) they advertised for an up-coming special about this movie, they called it “Blood on the Stones” but the name of the movie is “Blood Diamonds” so we decided to go.

We have heard stories of what is happening in Ethiopia from the Ethiopian Jews, and what is happening in the Sudan, we know of the horrors of Moslems killing hundreds of thousands of Christians throughout Africa so we didn’t go to this movie as unknowing people, we live in a part of the world where the Moslems capture and cut off the heads of their captives after hours or days of torture, mutilating their bodies and then dragging them through the streets while Moslems pass out candy and celebrate, but this movie was still shocking, very shocking. And if you have the stomach for it I would advise you to go and see it, but please don’t take your young children.

After seeing this movie you will come to some grip with the reality of what is happening in this insane world, but the truth is you can’t really understand it until you have felt this kind of fear and pain in the pit of your stomach. While the powers to be keep your attention on Anna Nicole Smith and an 8 year old over weight boy, or who has the best energy efficient house Gore or Bush. The world is going to hell in hand basket. In the meantime they are looking for another insane story to occupy your mind while feeding you misinformation about Islam being a religion of peace.

God prepares some to simply pray knowing they can’t do anything but pray. He sends others out to save our precious people. He also knows who to choose and how to prepare such a person. But it is time for all of us to sacrifice, be it our time, finances or to even put our lives on the line to save others. It certainly is not a time for apathy or to say to one’s self “I will think about it” and then put it on the back burner. I encourage you to go and see this movie, “Blood Diamonds” knowing that there will be some of the self righteous who will attack me for this recommendation.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for our son Joel and all the IDF soldiers. Pray for this Ministry and your part in it. Shalom, jerry golden

Don't be an infidel in God's eyes.

Don't be an infidel in God's eyes.

Posted: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 - written by jerry golden

1 Tim 5:8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

God calls many to different ministries, all of equal importance when it is all said and done. We are all members of the same Body and it is together that we form the Body of Messiah Yeshua here on earth. But it makes no difference what God has called you to when it comes to His command for each of us to take care of our own and those in your immediate family, for God said if you don’t you are worse than an infidel. What God is saying if your own house is not in order He can’t use you, and that you are an infidel.

The Ruach Ha Koddesh has moved on my heart to encourage you to consider the possibilities of what can happen to your family if you don’t provide for them, in this case providing may not only mean to put food on the table but to survive a nuclear or biological attack, or to do your best to provide a safe haven when the world goes mad around you. If you are one who thinks this will not be necessary then it may do you some good to look around the world, it’s a world gone mad, and the safe haven of the US is quickly fading and on the very verge of disaster. The Devils religion Islam will bring death and destruction to you and your area as it has to the rest of the world, and you have precious little time to come to that understanding before it will be too late.

God has given many visions of things to come; including this Messenger but if you don’t have ears to hear they will mean nothing to you. I am writing this to appeal to your compassion and love for your family, they will depend on you to provide them with the best security you possibly can. No one expects from you more than you can deliver. The first and the most important thing is to be sure you have shared with each of them the only truth that will set them free from fear and worry, a knowledge that they have been born into the family of God through the blood of Yeshua. You can’t save your loved ones for that is an individual choice between them and God, but if you don’t boldly share the Gospel of Yeshua with them you will be guilty before God and their fall into the pits of hell will be something you will have to answer for..

If you have small children don’t rob them of their childhood dreams and opportunity to be loved and made to feel secure, but it’s your responsibility to begin preparing for them the best you can. And if they have reached the age of responsibility sit them down and tell them of their salvation in Yeshua.

How can you prepare, that is a big question but I have written some articles and put them on my site that may help you. I encourage you to take the time and read some of them. Please understand that you can’t store enough food for years, but you can for a couple of months until you can figure out what to do next. If you have neighbors who are lost you can set up some food for them without them knowing it, it will be your witness to lead them to Yeshua, if not they may become your worse enemy, hunger makes good people do terrible things.

Go to my site www.thegoldenreport.com and scroll down to the section called “SPECIAL INTEREST” you will find a lot of information there that could save your life and make it possible for your family to survive what is coming your way.

Some times I feel guilty always asking you to consider supporting this Ministry for I am like a horse with blinders on and can’t see nothing but what God has set right in front of me, and that is to save Jewish lives, and I will continue to ask for your help for I believe God has touched you to do that as well. But remember I Tim. 5:8 you need to first and above all else take care of your own house. You are precious in the eyes of God, you are the only copy He has ever made like you, and He loves you very much.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for our son Joel and all the IDF soldiers. Pray for this Ministry and your part in it. Shalom, jerry golden

Peace is not what they are after.

Peace is not what they are after.

Posted: Monday, February 26, 2007 - written by jerry golden

For those who think there is even a remote possibility of Israel making peace with these Arabs who call themselves “Palestinians” they need only look at the new “Palestinian” school book. They deny Israel’s right to exist, call for the total destruction of the State of Israel. But what may be more interesting they are openly admitting that it no longer a battle of territorial rights, but one of religion. What is even more interesting is these new school books have been written by “Palestinians” and approved by both Hamas and Fatah, proving once again that there is no deference in either of their goals, they just have two different methods of destroying Israel.

Hamas has always defined its position as one of Jihad (Holy War) but Fatah has tried to hide their true motivations to the International Community, but that deception can now no longer continue, at least not before those who are well informed. Now it is well known that all these Arab children will be taught that they must kill Jews and live to one day be a Shahid (suicide bomber) and become a great “Palestinians Martyr for this is the greatest way to honor their family and please Allah. These kids are taught from kindergarden through college that there will never be a peace with Israel and that they must never accept anything less than the destruction of the Jewish State.

It makes it easy to see through all the political garbage that is delivered to us on a plate of deception everyday by the main line media, for if people are teaching their children to hate and kill Jews they are led by none other than the Devil, and they have no intentions for peace.

We saw it with Arafat and now we see it with Abbas, both leaders only play the peace card with the international community to gain financial support. And both leaders are trying to build their “Palestinian State” on the blood of their children. They no longer are educating their children but indoctrinating with the Islamic Religion of hate. Proving they have no intention of ever making peace with Israel.

We keep hearing about the embargo and the holding back of support by the US, and the EU, but it is a lie. The US has just given Abbas another $86 Million, and thousands of M-16’s along with God only knows what other weapons to kill us with. The EU keeps finding ways to send hundreds of millions to Abbas. Russia is sending thousands of their Tank Killing rocket to places like Syria, Iran and Egypt knowing they are being shipped into the Gaza Strip, and coming through the mostly open Egyptian border along the lower Sinai and into the so-called West Bank (Judea & Samaria). Even when they hear Abbas tell his people in Arabic they must stop killing each other and turn the guns on the Jews.

The fact that these school books teach their children that Israel must be destroyed and justifying terrorism and murder of a whole race of people and promoting incitement to murder. The UN still says nothing against any of these acts, but finds every opportunity to condemn Israel.
________________________________________________________________________

IRAN
I have no inside information on what Israel or the US are planning in regards to Iran, but it certainly looks like they will attack some time soon. But things are not always what they appear to be and I don’t think it will happen at least not until early summer if at all. And if the US and Israel do attack Iran and do not do a good job of it, the world will certainly go into a tail spin, with terrorists groups in the US and elsewhere attacking like the insane murderers they are. So you best pray that God will give these world leaders the wisdom to do the right thing, whatever that may be. For Israel is said to have asked the US for the right to fly over Iraq, air space they now control, and there is no doubt that we are getting a little more than a little nervous about the Iranian nuclear threat. It might be a good idea for everyone to take the time and consider what a nuclear war will do to this world not just to Iran and Israel.
_______________________________________________________________________

In the mean time, we have a mission to be about and there is a great need for us to do far more groundwork in Turkey, Cyprus, and the Greek Islands. The larger boat would save many more lives but we are far from having the money to purchase one like mentioned in this article. http://www.thegoldenreport.com/asp/jerrysnewsmanager/anmviewer.asp?a=1089&z=2
There is also a need to get the word in the right places to the right people in Europe, all of this takes money and time, but we have a God who is in control, I am believing the Ruach Ha Koddesh to touch those who He would. For those who are led to support this Ministry you can check this link out for the needed information. http://www.thegoldenreport.com/asp/jerrysnewsmanager/anmviewer.asp?a=782&z=5

Rise of Persia-Iran is Judgment to Babylon-USA

Rise of Persia-Iran is Judgment to Babylon-USA

Prophetic Warning and Commentary
By Kato Mivule
February 4th 2007

Rise of Persia-Iran is for America's Judgment...
America is jeering up for War with Iran...
Yes, World War Three is at hand...
America will be destroyed in this war...
Iran will attack Israel in the Gog Magog War Ezekiel 38,39...
America will be destroyed by Iran...
Iran will be destroyed in this Battle...
Gog and Magog will not win this Battle...
The Lord God will defend Israel without America's Help...
The Days of America are numbered...
This Gog Magog war will involve Russia and China...
This war will involve Nuclear weapons...
This war will NOT be the end of the world...
This war will be 'The Beginning of Sorrows'...
The Rapture won't take place before or after this war...
The Tribulation will begin after this war...
The antichrist will arise out of this global chaos...
The Rapture will take place after the Tribulation of those days...
USA moving world towards World War III
Much of the news today is filled with the United States moving its war machinery to the Persian Gulf in its plan to engage Iran which it accuses of supporting rebel militias in Iraq.

However, the situation should warrant all serious Christians to watch and keep up with what is going on in the Middle East. The events in this region do not substantiate an expansion of the US Empire but otherwise its demise.



The US is moving the world towards a nuclear holocaust and a Gog Magog war that will claim millions of lives. However, it is imperative that Christians realise that this coming war will not be the end of the world but the ‘Begging of Sorrows’ as Jesus Christ spoke about it in Matthew 24.

Matthew 24:6-8(6) And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.(7) For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.(8) All these are the beginning of sorrows.

We are getting into a time that very severe alterations are coming as pertains to the current world lifestyles. The adjustments are going to be so severe that current world systems will fail and therefore need for new systems. It is in this light that the rebellious anti God and antichrist systems are going to be ushered in.

We are witnessing the demise of the world's only empire-USA
What we are witnessing is the transition from current world system to the New World Order. We are witnessing the demise of one world empire – The USA and the rise of another one world empire – One World Government – Antichrist System. Certainly the coming Middle East war will be a climax of the clash of the West and Islamic civilizations that has already begun.

Make no mistake about it, the Iran US war will usher in great sorrows. This coming war will not go as planned by the Americans but it will go as planned by The Lord God of Heaven and Earth. The implications here are great. It means that we are seeing Bible prophesy being fulfilled before our eyes…that is if you live through this coming Nuclear Holocaust in the Middle East.

No Turning Back from Doom's Day...
There is no turning back from this point onwards. I say this for two reasons. One is that Israel will NOT coexist with a nuclear-armed Iran that has made its intentions to ‘wipe Israel of the world map’.

Secondly, the US and pursuit for more Oil treasures as she continues her conquest of more middle east territories and expand her empire. The USA's foreign policy is driven by greed for more oil and this is what is causing all the wars around the world currently. Iran has large oil deposits and the USA out of greed seeks to control them. Did the Bible not say that the root of ALL Evil is love for money? America's Capitalistic egos are leading her to death! Her salivating for the control of Oil deposits in the Middle East is surely what is going to kill her.

1 Timothy 6:10(10) For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Thirdly, Moslems worldwide see the attack on fellow Moslem nations as an attack on Islam by the West, and with the help of Russia and China technological expertise, they certainly are planning a pacification of all ‘infidels’ from their Middle Eastern lands...for the Moslem Nations, this is a fight for their survival and existence.

There is no way in the world Israel will allow a nuclear warheads pointed at it from Iran that has confessed to an agenda of destroying her. Iran is not turning back from her quest for the development of nuclear weapons. She learnt her lessons from North Korea and its Nuclear Test Programs.

USA pinned down in Iraq for judgment...
Iran knows very well how the US ‘used’ Iraq as a proxy in the 1980-88 Iran Iraq war. Yes, the current Iraqi crisis might partly be blamed on the Iranians giving the US hard time in Iraq, however, this is all a strategy to pin down arrogant USA in the Middle East and when one looks at Bible Prophesy concerning this region, one sees that the USA is surely pinned down in Iraq for destruction by divine working.

The war between the US and Iran is a certain and is not a question of if but when. The results of this war will NOT work in the favour of the US but its demise and destruction.

It is imperative that all true saints of God watch with a keen eye the developments in the Middle East. We are witnessing a demise of an empire and a rise of another brutal one world empire. America is on her way to judgment and destruction, and she went through Afghanistan, Iraq and now Iran with no restraints...But God of Heaven has purposed it that she would be drawn through that direction to her place of judgment.

When we look at bible prophesies Persia and Medes are mentioned as destroying Babylon. However, we see that there are a number of prophesies that have not been fulfilled yet concerning the destruction of Babylon.

Mede-Persia Iran Destroys Babylon USA
In Jeremiah 50 and 51, Isaiah 13, we see the total destruction of Babylon. The Lord God uses Medes to destroy Babylon. However, this prophesy has never been fulfilled but reserved for the future.

Isaiah 13:17-19(17) Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.(18) Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.(19) And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

Jeremiah 51:11-12(11) Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.(12) Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.

Jeremiah 51:28-29(28) Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.(29) And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.

Future Prophesies of Babylon yet to be fulfilled...
The scriptures above have NOT yet been fulfilled. The Medes and Persians did not DESTROY Babylon when they over took it. In the book of Daniel 5 and 6, we see that the Medes and Persians simply took over Babylon and set up rule there with out destroying it. They even appointed Daniel among the top administrators of their empire.

Daniel 5:30-31(30) In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.(31) And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.

Daniel 6:1-3(1) It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;(2) And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage.(3) Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.

Secondly, Babylon has NEVER become DESOLATE with no inhabitants. Currently Babylon has inhabitants in present day Iraq. Thirdly Babylon has NEVER been destroyed as Sodom and Gomorrah were literally destroyed. These prophesies are future prophesies speaking of another Babylon and that Babylon is USA...

So, one has to ask themselves who Medes/Persia is today, and who is the Daughter of Babylon today? Well, without going into depth study which is not the purpose of this article, certainly Medes/Persia is Iran and Babylon is certainly the USA for she currently controls Iraq and is the nation spoken about in Revelation 18, Jeremiah 50, 51, Isaiah 13, 46, yes she is that most powerful nation today, militarily, economically, politically, and even religiously, including the occult in high offices.

USA is Babylon The Great...
There is no doubt that America is Babylon according to Prophesies in Revelation 17,18, Jeremiah 50, 51...there is no nation on earth as great and powerful today as USA that fits perfectly in all the parameters describing Babylon in Revelation 17, 18, Jeremiah 50, 51, besides she now has the land title to Iraq, ancient Babylon...this is no coincidence but fulfilment of Bible prophesy.

Babylon NEVER destroys Medes/Persia; instead Medes/Persia destroys Babylon according to bible prophecy…this is symbolic of what is to occur in the near future. The rise of Iran is a true threat to the American empire a.k.a. America, The Babylon. What America fears most is what will happen to her. The Lord has purposed to rise up the Medes/Persians for the judgment of Babylon, America.

Though it seems that America is superior in military terms than Iran yet Bible Prophesy indicates that America (Babylon) stands not forever in her quests.

We also see Medes/Persia in among the team of nations that attack Israel in the Gog/Magog war in Ezekiel 38 and 39.

Babylon Historically and Present…
Wikipedia notes the following about Babylon from a secular point of view…

“Babylon was an ancient city in Mesopotamia (modern Al Hillah, Iraq), the ruins of which can be found in present-day Babil Province, about 50 miles (80 km) south of Baghdad. The form Babylon is the Greek variant of Akkadian Babilu (bāb-ilû, meaning "Gateway of the god(s)", translating Sumerian Kadingirra). It was the "holy city" of Babylonia from around 2300 BC, and the seat of the Neo-Babylonian Empire from 612 BC. In the Old Testament, the name appears as בבל (Babel), interpreted by Genesis 11:9 to mean "confusion", from the verb balal, "to confuse".”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylon



Photo: Bible-History.com: Tower of Babel Photos: Net- Lady Liberty New York City

Also it is interesting to note what Bible Historians have to say about the location of Babylon…this was located in present day Iraq which still hosts the ruins of ancient Babylon…

“The city of Babylon was the capital of the ancient land of Babylonia in southern Mesopotamia. It was situated on the Euphrates River about 50 miles south of modern Baghdad, just north of what is now the modern Iraqi town of al-Hillah.
The tremendous wealth and power of this city, along with its monumental size and appearance, were certainly considered a Biblical myth, that is, until its foundations were unearthed and its riches substantiated during the 19th century. Archaeologists stood in awe as their discoveries revealed that certain stories in the Bible were an actual situation that had happened in time.”
http://www.bible-history.com/babylonia/BabyloniaHistory_of_Babylonia.htm

It is interesting to note that the current occupying force in Babylon Iraq is none other than the USA. It is a Historical record that the USA always has economical, military, and political influence on all territories she has ever controlled through war; examples include South Korea, Japan, many other countries, and now Iraq. America is perfectly Babylon spoken about in Revelations 18. America has the ‘land title’ to Iraq as some one put it and she will NOT give it up.

Medes-Persia Historically and Present...
Meanwhile Persia was located in present day Iran and still the remnants of the Persian Empire are Iran. The following online encyclopaedia notes the following on Persia and Iran…

“Iran, (Persian:, Īrān), officially the Islamic Republic of Iran (Persian: , transliteration: Jomhūrī-ye Eslāmī-ye Īrān), and formerly known as Persia in the West, is a large Western Asian country located in the Middle East, Central Asia and the Caucasus… In addition, it borders the Persian Gulf, across which lie Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. Shi'a Islam is the official state religion and Persian the official language…

…Iran is one of the world's oldest continuous major civilizations. The history of Iran covers over four thousand years, and throughout history, Iran has been of great geostrategic importance because of its central location in Eurasia. Iran is a founding member of the United Nations, NAM, OIC, OPEC, and ECO. Iran is significant in international politics on account of its large supply of petroleum and influence in the region. Iran is also one of the few states that comprise the Cradle of Humanity. The name Iran is a cognate of Aryan and literally means "Land of the Aryans." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran



Photos: Wikipedia - Cyrus The Great Ayatollah Khomeini Iran's Revolutionary Tower

Also Bible Historians concur that Persia was located in present day Iran leaving no doubt that the remnants of the Persians are Iranians…

“PERSIA
pur'-sha, (parats; Persia; in Assyrian Parsu, Parsua; in Achemenian Persian Parsa, modern Fars): In the Bible (2 Ch 36:20,22,23; Ezr 1:1,8; Est 1:3,14,18; 10:2; Ezek 27:10; 38:5; Dan 8:20; 10:1; 11:2) this name denotes properly the modern province of Fars, not the whole Persian empire. The latter was by its people called Airyaria, the present Iran (from the Sanskrit word arya, "noble"); and even now the Persians never call their country anything but Iran, never "Persia." The province of Persis lay to the East of Elam (Susiana), and stretched from the Persian Gulf to the Great Salt Desert, having Carmania on the Southeast. Its chief cities were Persepolis and Pasargadae. Along the Persian Gulf the land is low, hot and unhealthy, but it soon begins to rise as one travels inland. Most of the province consists of high and steep mountains and plateaus, with fertile valleys. The table-lands in which lie the modern city of Shiraz and the ruins of Persepolis and Pasargadae are well watered and productive. Nearer the desert, however, cultivation grows scanty for want of water. Persia was doubtless in early times included in Elam, and its population was then either Semitic or allied to the Accadians, who founded more than one state in the Babylonian plain. The Aryan Persians seem to have occupied the country in the 8th or 9th century BC. W. St. Clair Tisdall “

Iran on the ‘End Time Prophetic Radar’
It is interesting to note that those in the End Time Prophetic community from almost all quarters, both Pre Tribulation and Post Tribulation camps are watching, noting and coming to the same conclusions that the rise of Iran today has to do with fulfilling Bible Prophesy especially as concerns Ezekiel 38, 39 and Jeremiah 50, 51 in which Persia Iran is involved in the destruction of Babylon USA and then her final (Iran) destruction as the Gog Magog Battle that ushers in the Tribulation…Iran is certainly crossing the End Time Prophetic Radar Screens and any serious prophesy student should take note…

R.A. Coombs of AO Report.com and author of ‘America, The Babylon’ has done considerably extensive research as to the Identity of Babylon The Great. R.A. Coombs is spot on concerning the identity of Babylon as ‘America, The Babylon’…
“The Biblical Prophecy predicts a prominent role that Iran will play in the Magog War of Ezekiel 38,39 plus the Babylon prophecies. A thoroughly "nuked" Iran would pose serious theological issues and make God's predictions to no effect.”
In his article ‘Overthrowing God Part 1 and 2’, R.A. Coombs states the following on the Medes and how Bible Prophesy indicates that God will use them to Judge Babylon. Again one should note that the following prophesies have not been fulfilled yet as Ancient Babylon was not destroyed when the Medes and Persians conquered it…

“#1. = Media (aka: “the Medes” & “Madai” [Strong’s Code: #4074] Chaldean term – A country in Central Asia, a segment of what is now called Iran – located in the northwestern quadrant on the border with Iraq and at one time covered part of present day Iraq.
Terms are found in the following passage pertaining to future Biblical Prophecy:
Isaiah 13:17 – Medes
“Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.

”Isaiah 21:2 – Media
“A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.” Jeremiah 51: 11 & 28 – Medes
11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.

#2. = Persia [Strong’s Code: #6539] Present-day as Iran
Ezekiel 27:10 – Persia
10 They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in thine army, thy men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they set forth thy comeliness.
Ezekiel 38: 5 -- Persia
5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:”

There is no doubt that present day Iran is Medes-Persia. The same Iran is still located in that geographical region as their Medes-Persian ancestors. It is interesting to note that America is currently in control of Iraq where ancient Babylon was located. The prophetic implications of America being in the Euphrates region controlling ancient Babylon –Iraq and facing ancient Medes-Persia – Iran should cause all those students of prophesy to pay serious attention to the geopolitical developments in that region.

America-Babylon not positioned in Iraq for 'Victory'...
America, The Babylon is not being positioned for victory in that part of the world but she is being positioned for severe judgment that will certainly bring her demise. America is not on the march to victory but on a march to her downfall and death. Is it not interesting that it is from this part of the world that folks have been calling for the “death to America”? Well, The Lord God of Heaven and Earth has purposed that America, The Babylon’s current pursuits in this region will lead to her death.

R.A. Coombs continues to shed more light on the current developments in the Middle East and how prophetically the Bible predicts the destruction of Babylon by the Medes. Iran is predicted here as DESTROYING America, the Babylon…

“Iran's role in Biblical prophecy is two-fold. She is mentioned in the destruction of a future Babylon super-power, known in Revelation as "mystery Babylon" or "Babylon, the Megala." She is also found in the prophecies concerning the invasion of Israel by Magog and Magog's allies. We find her mentioned in the Babylon prophecies in the following passages:

Isaiah 13:17
“Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.”
Jeremiah 51: 11 & 28
11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion. “

Persia-Iran not alone, she has allies...
However, Iran will not be alone when God uses her to judge America, The Babylon. Iran will have allies and it will be a combination of nations that will DESTROY America. It is interesting that Iran currently has made pacts with Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and other Latin American nations opposed to the US Hegemony. However, the Bible states Iran’s allies in her destruction of America. R.A. Coombs again states the following…

"The passage of verse 28 comes in conjunction with verse 27 which indicates she has allies. Those allies are:
27 Set ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillers.

#1. Ararat…The obvious location for Ararat would seem to be present-day Turkey, but that is not necessarily the case. There is actually another mountain in northern Iran that is also referred to as Ararat. It exists in the same mountain range as the Ararat of Turkey…

#2. MinniMinni is believed to be by most scholars, the area we know today as Armenia in what was once the old Yugoslavia. However, in ancient times, Armenia covered much more than Yugoslavia. It covered portions of the old Soviet Republics around the Caspian Sea region. It is thought that the Chechnyan region was also part of the Armenian kingdom.

#3, Ashchenaz
…However, closer inspection of the term, bolstered by modern archaeology and anthropology strongly suggests that the term "Ashchenaz" was originally applied to a region of Turkey, closer to the Caspian Sea…The idea that the Ashchenaz is a region around the Caspian Sea makes more sense because that is where the other two named "tribes" or "kingdoms" were located as well as the "Medes" or shall we say, the Iranians...”


Current Geo-Political Alignments to Change and Reflect Ezekiel 38, 39...
Clearly any serious student of bible prophecy will take note of the fact that current world political alignments are changing and or have changed in that nations are positioning themselves for the Gog Magog war against Israel.



Photo: Iranian Journalist Photo: AFP - Iran and Russia's Presidents Photo: Softpedia - Iran Russia Nukes?

It is clear that from Bible prophesy, Turkey will align itself with Iran, though there does not seem to be a real substantial alignment with Iran currently. However, when one studies Ezekiel 38 and 39, one sees nations that are currently aligned to America but aligning with Gog and Magog to attack Israel.

It is here that I fore see America’s days as numbered. The truth cannot be underestimated here. Iran or Persia is being awakened or raised up as a judgment to Babylon America before Iran herself is judged in the Gog Magog war.

Christian World largely Ignorant of these developments...
Many American Christians and Christians around the world dependent on America’s Evangelical hand are ignorant of this facts but the truth is the days of the American empire and self-indulgent way of life are numbered.

The days of the worldwide church feeding off America’s evangelical church are numbered and coming to an end. The days of America’s apostate preachers and teachers are numbered and coming to an end. The Lord is arising to judge the nations.

Again R.A. Coombs shades more light on the famous prophesy of the Gog Magog war that I believe will usher us into the great tribulation. R.A Coombs mentions the role that Iran has to play in this soon coming major war and the subsequent judgment of Iran alongside Gog Magog and her host…

“Ezekiel chapter 38:5 indicates that the nation of Magog attempts to invade Israel and brings allied nations along in the invasion attempt. We'll start this short explanation with a look at verses 2 through 6
2 -- " Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 -- " And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 -- " And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 -- " Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 -- " Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee...

It is not our purpose here to examine the prophecy itself, other than to note that Persia, also known as Iran is mentioned as being one of the nations allied with Magog in the invasion attempt against Israel. “

Persia, which is modern day Iran, Ethiopia that is still Ethiopia today and Libya that is still Libya today, are all aligned together in the Gog Magog war against Israel. Today Ethiopia has made headlines over is being used as a proxy by the US in her empire wars in Somalia. Libya has been mentioned in the news as being in possession with weapons of Mass Destruction, which it voluntary relinquished. It seems that Ethiopia and Libya are aligned to America but suddenly there is a shift and these nations align with Iran to join the Gog Magog war against Israel.
America will not succeed in conquest of Iran but the reserve, Iran will...
So, as R.A. Coombs points out, America destroying Iran is not mentioned in Bible Prophesy at all. Babylon does not destroy Medes/Persia but Medes/Persia destroys Babylon. America’s rant and rhetoric of “dealing” with Iran is a self fulfilling Prophesy…in other words American Leaders are speaking about the demise of their nation.
The very thing they wish to do to Iran is what will happen to America! As R.A. Coombs points out this very truth that God CANNOT SIN…though physically America seems stronger militarily than Iran and looks set to win this coming War with Iran yet God has stated that it is Medes/Persia that will destroy Babylon…and the word I am using here that The Lord used in Prophesy is ‘Destroy’…
“Prophetically, if America destroys Iran before Iran can destroy America or chip in to help destroy America's Persian Gulf forces, then God's Word in regards to the Babylon prophecies are in error. Thus God has prophesied an event that didn't or won't happen. Furthermore, the Magog prophecies will have become null and void and also unfulfilled and therefore also in error. In other words, GOD SINS and will be proven by Satan to be a sinner just like everyone else! What are the implications of this?”
What other end time watchers are seeing...
Many other end time watchmen are seeing what is forming in the Middle East insofar as the Gog Magog war is concerned, especially pertaining to Iran and its role in end times. S.R. Shearer of Antipas Ministries notes well concerning the developments in the Middle East between Iran and the US in that the Iranians believe that they have arrived at the end of days and are expecting the return of the hidden Imam amidst wars, chaos, and bloodshed…
“He (i.e., the 12th Imam) is said to have gone into "occlusion" (hiding) in the ninth century, at the age of five. HIS RETURN WILL BE PRECEDED BY COSMIC CHAOS, WAR AND BLOODSHED. AFTER A CATACLYSMIC CONFRONTATION WITH EVIL AND DARKNESS, THE MAHDI WILL LEAD THE WORLD INTO AN ERA OF UNIVERSAL PEACE. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE CHRISTIAN VISION OF THE APOCALYPSE. INDEED, THE HIDDEN IMAM IS EXPECTED TO RETURN IN THE COMPANY OF JESUS.Mr. Ahmadinejad appears to believe that these events are close at hand AND THAT ORDINARY MORTALS CAN INFLUENCE THE DVINE TIMETABLE.”

S.R. Shearer continues to place emphasis on what I pointed out earlier that Israel would not continue to coexist with a nuclear-armed Iran that has publicly made announcements to “wipe Israel and the Zionist regime off the map”. We should take note that Israel did not take the threats of Sadam Hussein lightly in 1981 and went ahead to destroy his nuclear facilities the situation is very different now, Iran posses far greater threat to the Jewish state that did Saddam Hussein in the 1980’s…

“The Israelis, however, cannot permit the Iranians to obtain nuclear weapons. The fact is, all it would take to wipe out the nation of Israel are three well-placed nuclear blasts. It's obvious that Israel would have to strike Iran in order to prevent such an eventuality - especially in light of the fact that Ahmadinejad has promised to target Israel for destruction as soon as it acquires this weaponry. And those who think that Israel is not capable of thinking in these terms should remind themselves of what Israel did to Iraq's nuclear facilities in 1981 when Hussein - then a friend of the Americans - threatened Israel with nuclear annihilation just as the Iranians are doing today.”

S.R. Shearer continues to shed more light on this matter when he quotes a British Journalist who writes about how ‘Iran has broken the seals’, a phrase that refers to the seals placed by UN nuclear inspectors on Iran’s nuclear processing equipment...

“In light of this fact, British journalist Charles Moore writes with some trepidation:
"IRAN HAS BROKEN THE SEALS'. The phrase refers to the seals placed by UN nuclear inspectors on equipment that, unsealed, enables uranium enrichment, making possible the development of a nuclear bomb.
"It has a suitably apocalyptic ring. In the Book of Revelation, the Lamb breaks the seven seals and earth-shattering violence ensues: '...the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together... And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men... hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains'."

World War III anticipated by world powers...Syria a Trigger?
AS S.R. Shearer notes that for many years this war has been anticipated by world powers like Britain, France and Germany. However, I believe that what they expect to happen in this coming Gog Magog war will take them by surprise. For nations will be gathered against Israel.

The question remains what will cause such change of heart and alignments against Israel by some pro American countries. My opinion though I might be wrong is Syria. What might transpire suddenly and take everybody’s surprise might be Israel nuking Damascus and as such drawing worldwide reprisal in the Gog Magog war (This is speculative, we shall wait and see).

"These are the same people (i.e., the "great men, the rich men, etc.) about whom Moore writes in disgust:
"For years now, the 'EU Three' - Britain, France and Germany - have been in charge [of negotiating with Iran to get that country to abandon its nuclear ambitions] … They have wanted to believe that they were dealing with a power that was negotiating in good faith. [But instead] … they have spurred Iran on to greater excesses by declaring that Western military action was 'inconceivable'. They have hoped against hope and against evidence." “

America-nized Christians Reminiscent of Pompeii Residents...
The rise of Iran is certainly a judgment to America Babylon though many Americans will not want to believe it but this is what is going to happen Prosperity gospel will not help any more, the almighty dollar will be useless, a state of chaos and collapse is what is heading for America. This is what I tell America-nized Christians; whenever you hear of 'Iran and nuke weapons, think about judgment coming on America Babylon.

Global America-nized Christians are reminiscent of the Residents of Pompeii who according to historians where "used" to the earthquake tremors that they did not take any warning to escape disaster seriously in 79 AD. They thought the warnings are just normal.
"The inhabitants of Pompeii, as those of the area today, had long been used to minor tremors (indeed, the writer Pliny the Younger wrote that earth tremors "were not particularly alarming because they are frequent in Campania")"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pompeii

Today, Christians see all these signs that Jesus Christ spoke about and yet ignore them thinking that it is 'just another sign' we don't have to worry...and they continue in their slumber, apathy, and lethargy just like the residents of Pompeii...

Persia-Iran to get more than she is asking for...
However as S.R. Shearer notes, Iran is asking for more than they are asking for, Israel being wiped off the map is the hooks being placed in Iran’s nostrils leading her to judgment at the Gog Magog war…

However, this is not going to be a victory for the Islamists as some might suppose. God is gathering the nations for judgment as they come against Israel in the Gog Magog war. The Islamic world as we know it will not stay intact. S.R. Shearer notes the following…

“Sadly, Ahmadinejad and his radical disciples will get what they ask for, but not for good, but for evil:

"And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
"Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog …
"And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog …
"And I will … put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords …

"And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
"And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days …
"Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog …
"And I will turn thee back, AND LEAVE BUT THE SIXTH PART OF THEE …
"And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
"So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel." (Ezekiel 38:1-4 and15-16; 39:1-2 and 6-7)

What is this? - it certainly is not the outcome anticipated by Ahmadinejad and his followers! Nor is it necessarily the outcome anticipated by Christians, for the Gog/Magog War will not be the "end of things" as so many Christians now suppose, but only the beginning; specifically "THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS" - AND IT'S ALL JUST MOMENTS AWAY! “

The Lord God of Heaven will fight for Israel...
It is interesting that the Bible records when Jews under captivity in Babylon controlled by the Persians then, how, Haman tried his take on “wipe Israel off the map” stance and things turned the other way round. It is interesting that there has been a spiritual force of some kind in this region for ages calling to Israel being “wiped off the map”, yet God rescues His people and judges the conspirators.

For sure that is what is going to happen this time in the Gog Magog battle except that both Babylon USA and Persia Iran get judged respectively. The war will end with the rise of the antichrist and false prophet, for they come out of this chaos to bring in a false peace and false security to the world as Doug Krieger notes in his article ‘Full Nuclearization’…

“Iran’s determination to “wipe Israel off the map” and Israel’s remembrance of Haman, the Persian of yesteryear, who sought to “annihilate the Jews”—and Haman’s reflections in both Hitler and Ahmadinejad, are so stark that to contemplate Israel’s justified concerns as over reactive is nonsensical to the extreme. Who needs parallels when those calling for your disappearance suggest the Jewish Holocaust is a Zionist contrivance!
The sad commentary to all this is the usurpation of the Man of Sin behind it all—playing the hand of the deliverer and the Man of Peace to a nation who so longs for that peace: Israel. “
http://www.the-tribulation-network.com/dougkrieger/prophetic_sequence_pt13.htm

Secular world has taken note of America's Walk to Destruction...
One cannot fail to mention how the secular world is anticipating for the days of sorrow coming ahead. J.R. Nyquist states how in his article, ‘The Destruction of The United States’, how all empires rise and fall and that this is America’s turn for demise – the war with Iran…

“History teaches that all nations, like all individuals, have a beginning and an end. No country is immortal. No nation is invincible. To make the point less delicately, America will one day cease to exist. And it may be useful, especially given the multiple crises now developing, to contemplate the mortality of the world’s most powerful country. What would the world be like without the United States? Would it be more violent or less violent? Would it be richer or poorer? Would there be more dictatorships in the world, or fewer, more freedom or more tyranny? The answers you give on these questions, if you are liable to have any answers, are ideologically defining.”
http://www.financialsense.com/stormwatch/geo/analysis.htm

J.R. Nyquist continues to state the involvement of Russia and China that are currently supplying weapons and technology to America’s enemies like Iran. I believe that Russia and China will be involved in the Gog Magog war…

“It is not nice to say that major powers like China or Russia seek the destruction of the United States. It is not nice to say that Russia and China are governed by thugs. But anyone who studies the foreign policies, chicanery, secret maneuvers and war preparations of Beijing and Moscow cannot honestly conclude otherwise. The fact that Russia and China are both assisting Iran’s development of nuclear weapons is more than suggestive. It is no accident that in America’s struggle against radical Islam, the Russian president has declared that Russia is Islam’s “best friend.” …China, on the other hand, is a great country that suffered eclipse during the period of Western imperialism and colonialism. So China has reason to predicate its policy on the notion that “one good turn deserves another.” The reason for China’s opening to the West was not to enrich the Chinese bourgeoisie, or to adopt Western democratic values. The Chinese Communists sought an opening to the West so that they could get the investment capital and technology they needed for a modern military machine. Developing their economy is merely a necessary step in developing China’s new superpower status.”

Pre Tribulation Destruction of Babylon-USA...
I believe America Babylon is going to fall and be judged before the tribulation and not at the end of the tribulation. It is Iran Persia that first destroys America Babylon before Iran is destroyed. America Babylon is destroyed suddenly as Danny McDowell states in his article ‘A Pre Tribulation Destruction of Babylon’…

“Isaiah 47 speaks to the SUDDEN DESTRUCTION of the Daughter of BABYLON. The similarities between the Babylon of this passage, and that of Revelation 17/18 are just astounding. Both of these two passages describe A SUDDEN DESTRUCTION of Babylon, and in NO WAY resembles that of Rev.16:1” http://www.yesumulungi.com/Prophesy/Proph43.htm

It is at the hands of the ten kings in Revelation 17:16-17 that destroy Mystery Babylon. She is destroyed suddenly and in one hour. America as we know it ceases to be as she is in one hour; again Danny McDowell sheds more light on this…

“This is not possible since the destruction of “MYSTERY BABYLON” comes at the hands of TEN KINGS/HORNS of THE BEAST [Rev.17:16-17] at the behest of GOD HIMSELF. The destruction of MYSTERY BABYLON comes at a time when she proudly declares “I SIT AS A QUEEN, AND SHALL SEE NO HARM” [Rev18:7], and her destruction comes IN ONE HOUR [Rev.18:8, and 10]! Babylon of Rev.16:19 simply COMES INTO GOD’S REMEMBERANCE as he concludes his punishment of the earth. It is clear that “MYSTERY BABYLON” is “burned with fire” at the height of her delusion. More on this to follow.”

World War III NOT End of world but Beginning of sorrows...
There is no doubt that the beginning of sorrows is coming, this is the time to hide in God’s Word, obey God’s Commands and Trust in Jesus Christ. Those who still bank on trusting money and riches of this world are in for very big disappointment. The great humbling is coming and we better humble ourselves before God humbles us.

These current events i.e. the rise of Iran and Gog Magog war, are not leading to ‘Rapture’ of the saints as some quarters would like us to believe. The rapture will happen after ‘The Tribulation of those days’… What is happening right now is that we are going to be getting into the Tribulation, the Antichrist and False Prophet are going to be revealed and there is going to be sorrow upon sorrows. Nations are going to be judged and wiped off the map by cataclysmic judgments from The Lord.

Millions are going to die and for Christians, there is going to be intense persecutions as never happened – Record breaking persecutions. Yes, all the American armies gathering around the Euphrates are not there to play games but being positioned so Bible prophesies are fulfilled, and for sure, the developments in the Middle East are a very big sign to this generation that we are about to get into 'The beginning of Sorrows', the Tribulation, and yes the Second Coming of Jesus Christ after the Tribulation of those days.

The ‘beginning of sorrows is upon us’. Your only protection is in Jesus Christ, He alone can save you from this time of darkness coming upon the earth. It is time that you prepare spiritually by abiding in Jesus Christ, He alone will see you though the dark days of sorrows descending upon this earth.

Matthew 24:6-8(6) And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.(7) For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.(8) All these are the beginning of sorrows

USA moving world towards World War III
Much of the news today is filled with the United States moving its war machinery to the Persian Gulf in its plan to engage Iran which it accuses of supporting rebel militias in Iraq.

However, the situation should warrant all serious Christians to watch and keep up with what is going on in the Middle East. The events in this region do not substantiate an expansion of the US Empire but otherwise its demise.



The US is moving the world towards a nuclear holocaust and a Gog Magog war that will claim millions of lives. However, it is imperative that Christians realise that this coming war will not be the end of the world but the ‘Begging of Sorrows’ as Jesus Christ spoke about it in Matthew 24.

Matthew 24:6-8(6) And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.(7) For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.(8) All these are the beginning of sorrows.

We are getting into a time that very severe alterations are coming as pertains to the current world lifestyles. The adjustments are going to be so severe that current world systems will fail and therefore need for new systems. It is in this light that the rebellious anti God and antichrist systems are going to be ushered in.

We are witnessing the demise of the world's only empire-USA
What we are witnessing is the transition from current world system to the New World Order. We are witnessing the demise of one world empire – The USA and the rise of another one world empire – One World Government – Antichrist System. Certainly the coming Middle East war will be a climax of the clash of the West and Islamic civilizations that has already begun.

Make no mistake about it, the Iran US war will usher in great sorrows. This coming war will not go as planned by the Americans but it will go as planned by The Lord God of Heaven and Earth. The implications here are great. It means that we are seeing Bible prophesy being fulfilled before our eyes…that is if you live through this coming Nuclear Holocaust in the Middle East.

No Turning Back from Doom's Day...
There is no turning back from this point onwards. I say this for two reasons. One is that Israel will NOT coexist with a nuclear-armed Iran that has made its intentions to ‘wipe Israel of the world map’.

Secondly, the US and pursuit for more Oil treasures as she continues her conquest of more middle east territories and expand her empire. The USA's foreign policy is driven by greed for more oil and this is what is causing all the wars around the world currently. Iran has large oil deposits and the USA out of greed seeks to control them. Did the Bible not say that the root of ALL Evil is love for money? America's Capitalistic egos are leading her to death! Her salivating for the control of Oil deposits in the Middle East is surely what is going to kill her.

1 Timothy 6:10(10) For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Thirdly, Moslems worldwide see the attack on fellow Moslem nations as an attack on Islam by the West, and with the help of Russia and China technological expertise, they certainly are planning a pacification of all ‘infidels’ from their Middle Eastern lands...for the Moslem Nations, this is a fight for their survival and existence.

There is no way in the world Israel will allow a nuclear warheads pointed at it from Iran that has confessed to an agenda of destroying her. Iran is not turning back from her quest for the development of nuclear weapons. She learnt her lessons from North Korea and its Nuclear Test Programs.

USA pinned down in Iraq for judgment...
Iran knows very well how the US ‘used’ Iraq as a proxy in the 1980-88 Iran Iraq war. Yes, the current Iraqi crisis might partly be blamed on the Iranians giving the US hard time in Iraq, however, this is all a strategy to pin down arrogant USA in the Middle East and when one looks at Bible Prophesy concerning this region, one sees that the USA is surely pinned down in Iraq for destruction by divine working.

The war between the US and Iran is a certain and is not a question of if but when. The results of this war will NOT work in the favour of the US but its demise and destruction.

It is imperative that all true saints of God watch with a keen eye the developments in the Middle East. We are witnessing a demise of an empire and a rise of another brutal one world empire. America is on her way to judgment and destruction, and she went through Afghanistan, Iraq and now Iran with no restraints...But God of Heaven has purposed it that she would be drawn through that direction to her place of judgment.

When we look at bible prophesies Persia and Medes are mentioned as destroying Babylon. However, we see that there are a number of prophesies that have not been fulfilled yet concerning the destruction of Babylon.

Mede-Persia Iran Destroys Babylon USA
In Jeremiah 50 and 51, Isaiah 13, we see the total destruction of Babylon. The Lord God uses Medes to destroy Babylon. However, this prophesy has never been fulfilled but reserved for the future.

Isaiah 13:17-19(17) Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.(18) Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.(19) And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

Jeremiah 51:11-12(11) Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.(12) Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.

Jeremiah 51:28-29(28) Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.(29) And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.

Future Prophesies of Babylon yet to be fulfilled...
The scriptures above have NOT yet been fulfilled. The Medes and Persians did not DESTROY Babylon when they over took it. In the book of Daniel 5 and 6, we see that the Medes and Persians simply took over Babylon and set up rule there with out destroying it. They even appointed Daniel among the top administrators of their empire.

Daniel 5:30-31(30) In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.(31) And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.

Daniel 6:1-3(1) It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;(2) And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage.(3) Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.

Secondly, Babylon has NEVER become DESOLATE with no inhabitants. Currently Babylon has inhabitants in present day Iraq. Thirdly Babylon has NEVER been destroyed as Sodom and Gomorrah were literally destroyed. These prophesies are future prophesies speaking of another Babylon and that Babylon is USA...

So, one has to ask themselves who Medes/Persia is today, and who is the Daughter of Babylon today? Well, without going into depth study which is not the purpose of this article, certainly Medes/Persia is Iran and Babylon is certainly the USA for she currently controls Iraq and is the nation spoken about in Revelation 18, Jeremiah 50, 51, Isaiah 13, 46, yes she is that most powerful nation today, militarily, economically, politically, and even religiously, including the occult in high offices.

USA is Babylon The Great...
There is no doubt that America is Babylon according to Prophesies in Revelation 17,18, Jeremiah 50, 51...there is no nation on earth as great and powerful today as USA that fits perfectly in all the parameters describing Babylon in Revelation 17, 18, Jeremiah 50, 51, besides she now has the land title to Iraq, ancient Babylon...this is no coincidence but fulfilment of Bible prophesy.

Babylon NEVER destroys Medes/Persia; instead Medes/Persia destroys Babylon according to bible prophecy…this is symbolic of what is to occur in the near future. The rise of Iran is a true threat to the American empire a.k.a. America, The Babylon. What America fears most is what will happen to her. The Lord has purposed to rise up the Medes/Persians for the judgment of Babylon, America.

Though it seems that America is superior in military terms than Iran yet Bible Prophesy indicates that America (Babylon) stands not forever in her quests.

We also see Medes/Persia in among the team of nations that attack Israel in the Gog/Magog war in Ezekiel 38 and 39.

Babylon Historically and Present…
Wikipedia notes the following about Babylon from a secular point of view…

“Babylon was an ancient city in Mesopotamia (modern Al Hillah, Iraq), the ruins of which can be found in present-day Babil Province, about 50 miles (80 km) south of Baghdad. The form Babylon is the Greek variant of Akkadian Babilu (bāb-ilû, meaning "Gateway of the god(s)", translating Sumerian Kadingirra). It was the "holy city" of Babylonia from around 2300 BC, and the seat of the Neo-Babylonian Empire from 612 BC. In the Old Testament, the name appears as בבל (Babel), interpreted by Genesis 11:9 to mean "confusion", from the verb balal, "to confuse".”

Also it is interesting to note what Bible Historians have to say about the location of Babylon…this was located in present day Iraq which still hosts the ruins of ancient Babylon…

“The city of Babylon was the capital of the ancient land of Babylonia in southern Mesopotamia. It was situated on the Euphrates River about 50 miles south of modern Baghdad, just north of what is now the modern Iraqi town of al-Hillah.
The tremendous wealth and power of this city, along with its monumental size and appearance, were certainly considered a Biblical myth, that is, until its foundations were unearthed and its riches substantiated during the 19th century. Archaeologists stood in awe as their discoveries revealed that certain stories in the Bible were an actual situation that had happened in time.”
http://www.bible-history.com/babylonia/BabyloniaHistory_of_Babylonia.htm

It is interesting to note that the current occupying force in Babylon Iraq is none other than the USA. It is a Historical record that the USA always has economical, military, and political influence on all territories she has ever controlled through war; examples include South Korea, Japan, many other countries, and now Iraq. America is perfectly Babylon spoken about in Revelations 18. America has the ‘land title’ to Iraq as some one put it and she will NOT give it up.

Medes-Persia Historically and Present...
Meanwhile Persia was located in present day Iran and still the remnants of the Persian Empire are Iran. The following online encyclopaedia notes the following on Persia and Iran…

“Iran, (Persian:, Īrān), officially the Islamic Republic of Iran (Persian: , transliteration: Jomhūrī-ye Eslāmī-ye Īrān), and formerly known as Persia in the West, is a large Western Asian country located in the Middle East, Central Asia and the Caucasus… In addition, it borders the Persian Gulf, across which lie Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. Shi'a Islam is the official state religion and Persian the official language…

…Iran is one of the world's oldest continuous major civilizations. The history of Iran covers over four thousand years, and throughout history, Iran has been of great geostrategic importance because of its central location in Eurasia. Iran is a founding member of the United Nations, NAM, OIC, OPEC, and ECO. Iran is significant in international politics on account of its large supply of petroleum and influence in the region. Iran is also one of the few states that comprise the Cradle of Humanity. The name Iran is a cognate of Aryan and literally means "Land of the Aryans." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran



Photos: Wikipedia - Cyrus The Great Ayatollah Khomeini Iran's Revolutionary Tower

Also Bible Historians concur that Persia was located in present day Iran leaving no doubt that the remnants of the Persians are Iranians…

“PERSIA
pur'-sha, (parats; Persia; in Assyrian Parsu, Parsua; in Achemenian Persian Parsa, modern Fars): In the Bible (2 Ch 36:20,22,23; Ezr 1:1,8; Est 1:3,14,18; 10:2; Ezek 27:10; 38:5; Dan 8:20; 10:1; 11:2) this name denotes properly the modern province of Fars, not the whole Persian empire. The latter was by its people called Airyaria, the present Iran (from the Sanskrit word arya, "noble"); and even now the Persians never call their country anything but Iran, never "Persia." The province of Persis lay to the East of Elam (Susiana), and stretched from the Persian Gulf to the Great Salt Desert, having Carmania on the Southeast. Its chief cities were Persepolis and Pasargadae. Along the Persian Gulf the land is low, hot and unhealthy, but it soon begins to rise as one travels inland. Most of the province consists of high and steep mountains and plateaus, with fertile valleys. The table-lands in which lie the modern city of Shiraz and the ruins of Persepolis and Pasargadae are well watered and productive. Nearer the desert, however, cultivation grows scanty for want of water. Persia was doubtless in early times included in Elam, and its population was then either Semitic or allied to the Accadians, who founded more than one state in the Babylonian plain. The Aryan Persians seem to have occupied the country in the 8th or 9th century BC. W. St. Clair Tisdall “

Iran on the ‘End Time Prophetic Radar’
It is interesting to note that those in the End Time Prophetic community from almost all quarters, both Pre Tribulation and Post Tribulation camps are watching, noting and coming to the same conclusions that the rise of Iran today has to do with fulfilling Bible Prophesy especially as concerns Ezekiel 38, 39 and Jeremiah 50, 51 in which Persia Iran is involved in the destruction of Babylon USA and then her final (Iran) destruction as the Gog Magog Battle that ushers in the Tribulation…Iran is certainly crossing the End Time Prophetic Radar Screens and any serious prophesy student should take note…

R.A. Coombs of AO Report.com and author of ‘America, The Babylon’ has done considerably extensive research as to the Identity of Babylon The Great. R.A. Coombs is spot on concerning the identity of Babylon as ‘America, The Babylon’…
“The Biblical Prophecy predicts a prominent role that Iran will play in the Magog War of Ezekiel 38,39 plus the Babylon prophecies. A thoroughly "nuked" Iran would pose serious theological issues and make God's predictions to no effect.”
In his article ‘Overthrowing God Part 1 and 2’, R.A. Coombs states the following on the Medes and how Bible Prophesy indicates that God will use them to Judge Babylon. Again one should note that the following prophesies have not been fulfilled yet as Ancient Babylon was not destroyed when the Medes and Persians conquered it…

“#1. = Media (aka: “the Medes” & “Madai” [Strong’s Code: #4074] Chaldean term – A country in Central Asia, a segment of what is now called Iran – located in the northwestern quadrant on the border with Iraq and at one time covered part of present day Iraq.
Terms are found in the following passage pertaining to future Biblical Prophecy:
Isaiah 13:17 – Medes
“Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.

”Isaiah 21:2 – Media
“A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.” Jeremiah 51: 11 & 28 – Medes
11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.

#2. = Persia [Strong’s Code: #6539] Present-day as Iran
Ezekiel 27:10 – Persia
10 They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in thine army, thy men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they set forth thy comeliness.
Ezekiel 38: 5 -- Persia
5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:”

There is no doubt that present day Iran is Medes-Persia. The same Iran is still located in that geographical region as their Medes-Persian ancestors. It is interesting to note that America is currently in control of Iraq where ancient Babylon was located. The prophetic implications of America being in the Euphrates region controlling ancient Babylon –Iraq and facing ancient Medes-Persia – Iran should cause all those students of prophesy to pay serious attention to the geopolitical developments in that region.

America-Babylon not positioned in Iraq for 'Victory'...
America, The Babylon is not being positioned for victory in that part of the world but she is being positioned for severe judgment that will certainly bring her demise. America is not on the march to victory but on a march to her downfall and death. Is it not interesting that it is from this part of the world that folks have been calling for the “death to America”? Well, The Lord God of Heaven and Earth has purposed that America, The Babylon’s current pursuits in this region will lead to her death.

R.A. Coombs continues to shed more light on the current developments in the Middle East and how prophetically the Bible predicts the destruction of Babylon by the Medes. Iran is predicted here as DESTROYING America, the Babylon…

“Iran's role in Biblical prophecy is two-fold. She is mentioned in the destruction of a future Babylon super-power, known in Revelation as "mystery Babylon" or "Babylon, the Megala." She is also found in the prophecies concerning the invasion of Israel by Magog and Magog's allies. We find her mentioned in the Babylon prophecies in the following passages:

Isaiah 13:17
“Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.”
Jeremiah 51: 11 & 28
11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion. “

Persia-Iran not alone, she has allies...
However, Iran will not be alone when God uses her to judge America, The Babylon. Iran will have allies and it will be a combination of nations that will DESTROY America. It is interesting that Iran currently has made pacts with Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and other Latin American nations opposed to the US Hegemony. However, the Bible states Iran’s allies in her destruction of America. R.A. Coombs again states the following…

"The passage of verse 28 comes in conjunction with verse 27 which indicates she has allies. Those allies are:
27 Set ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillers.

#1. Ararat…The obvious location for Ararat would seem to be present-day Turkey, but that is not necessarily the case. There is actually another mountain in northern Iran that is also referred to as Ararat. It exists in the same mountain range as the Ararat of Turkey…

#2. MinniMinni is believed to be by most scholars, the area we know today as Armenia in what was once the old Yugoslavia. However, in ancient times, Armenia covered much more than Yugoslavia. It covered portions of the old Soviet Republics around the Caspian Sea region. It is thought that the Chechnyan region was also part of the Armenian kingdom.

#3, Ashchenaz
…However, closer inspection of the term, bolstered by modern archaeology and anthropology strongly suggests that the term "Ashchenaz" was originally applied to a region of Turkey, closer to the Caspian Sea…The idea that the Ashchenaz is a region around the Caspian Sea makes more sense because that is where the other two named "tribes" or "kingdoms" were located as well as the "Medes" or shall we say, the Iranians...”


Current Geo-Political Alignments to Change and Reflect Ezekiel 38, 39...
Clearly any serious student of bible prophecy will take note of the fact that current world political alignments are changing and or have changed in that nations are positioning themselves for the Gog Magog war against Israel.



Photo: Iranian Journalist Photo: AFP - Iran and Russia's Presidents Photo: Softpedia - Iran Russia Nukes?

It is clear that from Bible prophesy, Turkey will align itself with Iran, though there does not seem to be a real substantial alignment with Iran currently. However, when one studies Ezekiel 38 and 39, one sees nations that are currently aligned to America but aligning with Gog and Magog to attack Israel.

It is here that I fore see America’s days as numbered. The truth cannot be underestimated here. Iran or Persia is being awakened or raised up as a judgment to Babylon America before Iran herself is judged in the Gog Magog war.

Christian World largely Ignorant of these developments...
Many American Christians and Christians around the world dependent on America’s Evangelical hand are ignorant of this facts but the truth is the days of the American empire and self-indulgent way of life are numbered.

The days of the worldwide church feeding off America’s evangelical church are numbered and coming to an end. The days of America’s apostate preachers and teachers are numbered and coming to an end. The Lord is arising to judge the nations.

Again R.A. Coombs shades more light on the famous prophesy of the Gog Magog war that I believe will usher us into the great tribulation. R.A Coombs mentions the role that Iran has to play in this soon coming major war and the subsequent judgment of Iran alongside Gog Magog and her host…

“Ezekiel chapter 38:5 indicates that the nation of Magog attempts to invade Israel and brings allied nations along in the invasion attempt. We'll start this short explanation with a look at verses 2 through 6
2 -- " Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 -- " And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 -- " And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 -- " Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 -- " Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee...

It is not our purpose here to examine the prophecy itself, other than to note that Persia, also known as Iran is mentioned as being one of the nations allied with Magog in the invasion attempt against Israel. “

Persia, which is modern day Iran, Ethiopia that is still Ethiopia today and Libya that is still Libya today, are all aligned together in the Gog Magog war against Israel. Today Ethiopia has made headlines over is being used as a proxy by the US in her empire wars in Somalia. Libya has been mentioned in the news as being in possession with weapons of Mass Destruction, which it voluntary relinquished. It seems that Ethiopia and Libya are aligned to America but suddenly there is a shift and these nations align with Iran to join the Gog Magog war against Israel.
America will not succeed in conquest of Iran but the reserve, Iran will...
So, as R.A. Coombs points out, America destroying Iran is not mentioned in Bible Prophesy at all. Babylon does not destroy Medes/Persia but Medes/Persia destroys Babylon. America’s rant and rhetoric of “dealing” with Iran is a self fulfilling Prophesy…in other words American Leaders are speaking about the demise of their nation.
The very thing they wish to do to Iran is what will happen to America! As R.A. Coombs points out this very truth that God CANNOT SIN…though physically America seems stronger militarily than Iran and looks set to win this coming War with Iran yet God has stated that it is Medes/Persia that will destroy Babylon…and the word I am using here that The Lord used in Prophesy is ‘Destroy’…
“Prophetically, if America destroys Iran before Iran can destroy America or chip in to help destroy America's Persian Gulf forces, then God's Word in regards to the Babylon prophecies are in error. Thus God has prophesied an event that didn't or won't happen. Furthermore, the Magog prophecies will have become null and void and also unfulfilled and therefore also in error. In other words, GOD SINS and will be proven by Satan to be a sinner just like everyone else! What are the implications of this?”
What other end time watchers are seeing...
Many other end time watchmen are seeing what is forming in the Middle East insofar as the Gog Magog war is concerned, especially pertaining to Iran and its role in end times. S.R. Shearer of Antipas Ministries notes well concerning the developments in the Middle East between Iran and the US in that the Iranians believe that they have arrived at the end of days and are expecting the return of the hidden Imam amidst wars, chaos, and bloodshed…
“He (i.e., the 12th Imam) is said to have gone into "occlusion" (hiding) in the ninth century, at the age of five. HIS RETURN WILL BE PRECEDED BY COSMIC CHAOS, WAR AND BLOODSHED. AFTER A CATACLYSMIC CONFRONTATION WITH EVIL AND DARKNESS, THE MAHDI WILL LEAD THE WORLD INTO AN ERA OF UNIVERSAL PEACE. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE CHRISTIAN VISION OF THE APOCALYPSE. INDEED, THE HIDDEN IMAM IS EXPECTED TO RETURN IN THE COMPANY OF JESUS.Mr. Ahmadinejad appears to believe that these events are close at hand AND THAT ORDINARY MORTALS CAN INFLUENCE THE DVINE TIMETABLE.”

S.R. Shearer continues to place emphasis on what I pointed out earlier that Israel would not continue to coexist with a nuclear-armed Iran that has publicly made announcements to “wipe Israel and the Zionist regime off the map”. We should take note that Israel did not take the threats of Sadam Hussein lightly in 1981 and went ahead to destroy his nuclear facilities the situation is very different now, Iran posses far greater threat to the Jewish state that did Saddam Hussein in the 1980’s…

“The Israelis, however, cannot permit the Iranians to obtain nuclear weapons. The fact is, all it would take to wipe out the nation of Israel are three well-placed nuclear blasts. It's obvious that Israel would have to strike Iran in order to prevent such an eventuality - especially in light of the fact that Ahmadinejad has promised to target Israel for destruction as soon as it acquires this weaponry. And those who think that Israel is not capable of thinking in these terms should remind themselves of what Israel did to Iraq's nuclear facilities in 1981 when Hussein - then a friend of the Americans - threatened Israel with nuclear annihilation just as the Iranians are doing today.”

S.R. Shearer continues to shed more light on this matter when he quotes a British Journalist who writes about how ‘Iran has broken the seals’, a phrase that refers to the seals placed by UN nuclear inspectors on Iran’s nuclear processing equipment...

“In light of this fact, British journalist Charles Moore writes with some trepidation:
"IRAN HAS BROKEN THE SEALS'. The phrase refers to the seals placed by UN nuclear inspectors on equipment that, unsealed, enables uranium enrichment, making possible the development of a nuclear bomb.
"It has a suitably apocalyptic ring. In the Book of Revelation, the Lamb breaks the seven seals and earth-shattering violence ensues: '...the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together... And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men... hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains'."

World War III anticipated by world powers...Syria a Trigger?
AS S.R. Shearer notes that for many years this war has been anticipated by world powers like Britain, France and Germany. However, I believe that what they expect to happen in this coming Gog Magog war will take them by surprise. For nations will be gathered against Israel.

The question remains what will cause such change of heart and alignments against Israel by some pro American countries. My opinion though I might be wrong is Syria. What might transpire suddenly and take everybody’s surprise might be Israel nuking Damascus and as such drawing worldwide reprisal in the Gog Magog war (This is speculative, we shall wait and see).

"These are the same people (i.e., the "great men, the rich men, etc.) about whom Moore writes in disgust:
"For years now, the 'EU Three' - Britain, France and Germany - have been in charge [of negotiating with Iran to get that country to abandon its nuclear ambitions] … They have wanted to believe that they were dealing with a power that was negotiating in good faith. [But instead] … they have spurred Iran on to greater excesses by declaring that Western military action was 'inconceivable'. They have hoped against hope and against evidence." “

America-nized Christians Reminiscent of Pompeii Residents...
The rise of Iran is certainly a judgment to America Babylon though many Americans will not want to believe it but this is what is going to happen Prosperity gospel will not help any more, the almighty dollar will be useless, a state of chaos and collapse is what is heading for America. This is what I tell America-nized Christians; whenever you hear of 'Iran and nuke weapons, think about judgment coming on America Babylon.

Global America-nized Christians are reminiscent of the Residents of Pompeii who according to historians where "used" to the earthquake tremors that they did not take any warning to escape disaster seriously in 79 AD. They thought the warnings are just normal.
"The inhabitants of Pompeii, as those of the area today, had long been used to minor tremors (indeed, the writer Pliny the Younger wrote that earth tremors "were not particularly alarming because they are frequent in Campania")"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pompeii

Photos: Wikipedia - Pompeii Residents unsuccessful Flee Photo: Destination360 - Pompeii

Today, Christians see all these signs that Jesus Christ spoke about and yet ignore them thinking that it is 'just another sign' we don't have to worry...and they continue in their slumber, apathy, and lethargy just like the residents of Pompeii...

Persia-Iran to get more than she is asking for...
However as S.R. Shearer notes, Iran is asking for more than they are asking for, Israel being wiped off the map is the hooks being placed in Iran’s nostrils leading her to judgment at the Gog Magog war…

However, this is not going to be a victory for the Islamists as some might suppose. God is gathering the nations for judgment as they come against Israel in the Gog Magog war. The Islamic world as we know it will not stay intact. S.R. Shearer notes the following…

“Sadly, Ahmadinejad and his radical disciples will get what they ask for, but not for good, but for evil:

"And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
"Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog …
"And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog …
"And I will … put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords …

"And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
"And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days …
"Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog …
"And I will turn thee back, AND LEAVE BUT THE SIXTH PART OF THEE …
"And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
"So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel." (Ezekiel 38:1-4 and15-16; 39:1-2 and 6-7)

What is this? - it certainly is not the outcome anticipated by Ahmadinejad and his followers! Nor is it necessarily the outcome anticipated by Christians, for the Gog/Magog War will not be the "end of things" as so many Christians now suppose, but only the beginning; specifically "THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS" - AND IT'S ALL JUST MOMENTS AWAY! “

The Lord God of Heaven will fight for Israel...
It is interesting that the Bible records when Jews under captivity in Babylon controlled by the Persians then, how, Haman tried his take on “wipe Israel off the map” stance and things turned the other way round. It is interesting that there has been a spiritual force of some kind in this region for ages calling to Israel being “wiped off the map”, yet God rescues His people and judges the conspirators.

For sure that is what is going to happen this time in the Gog Magog battle except that both Babylon USA and Persia Iran get judged respectively. The war will end with the rise of the antichrist and false prophet, for they come out of this chaos to bring in a false peace and false security to the world as Doug Krieger notes in his article ‘Full Nuclearization’…

“Iran’s determination to “wipe Israel off the map” and Israel’s remembrance of Haman, the Persian of yesteryear, who sought to “annihilate the Jews”—and Haman’s reflections in both Hitler and Ahmadinejad, are so stark that to contemplate Israel’s justified concerns as over reactive is nonsensical to the extreme. Who needs parallels when those calling for your disappearance suggest the Jewish Holocaust is a Zionist contrivance!
The sad commentary to all this is the usurpation of the Man of Sin behind it all—playing the hand of the deliverer and the Man of Peace to a nation who so longs for that peace: Israel. “
http://www.the-tribulation-network.com/dougkrieger/prophetic_sequence_pt13.htm

Secular world has taken note of America's Walk to Destruction...
One cannot fail to mention how the secular world is anticipating for the days of sorrow coming ahead. J.R. Nyquist states how in his article, ‘The Destruction of The United States’, how all empires rise and fall and that this is America’s turn for demise – the war with Iran…

“History teaches that all nations, like all individuals, have a beginning and an end. No country is immortal. No nation is invincible. To make the point less delicately, America will one day cease to exist. And it may be useful, especially given the multiple crises now developing, to contemplate the mortality of the world’s most powerful country. What would the world be like without the United States? Would it be more violent or less violent? Would it be richer or poorer? Would there be more dictatorships in the world, or fewer, more freedom or more tyranny? The answers you give on these questions, if you are liable to have any answers, are ideologically defining.”
http://www.financialsense.com/stormwatch/geo/analysis.htm

J.R. Nyquist continues to state the involvement of Russia and China that are currently supplying weapons and technology to America’s enemies like Iran. I believe that Russia and China will be involved in the Gog Magog war…

“It is not nice to say that major powers like China or Russia seek the destruction of the United States. It is not nice to say that Russia and China are governed by thugs. But anyone who studies the foreign policies, chicanery, secret maneuvers and war preparations of Beijing and Moscow cannot honestly conclude otherwise. The fact that Russia and China are both assisting Iran’s development of nuclear weapons is more than suggestive. It is no accident that in America’s struggle against radical Islam, the Russian president has declared that Russia is Islam’s “best friend.” …China, on the other hand, is a great country that suffered eclipse during the period of Western imperialism and colonialism. So China has reason to predicate its policy on the notion that “one good turn deserves another.” The reason for China’s opening to the West was not to enrich the Chinese bourgeoisie, or to adopt Western democratic values. The Chinese Communists sought an opening to the West so that they could get the investment capital and technology they needed for a modern military machine. Developing their economy is merely a necessary step in developing China’s new superpower status.”

Pre Tribulation Destruction of Babylon-USA...
I believe America Babylon is going to fall and be judged before the tribulation and not at the end of the tribulation. It is Iran Persia that first destroys America Babylon before Iran is destroyed. America Babylon is destroyed suddenly as Danny McDowell states in his article ‘A Pre Tribulation Destruction of Babylon’…

“Isaiah 47 speaks to the SUDDEN DESTRUCTION of the Daughter of BABYLON. The similarities between the Babylon of this passage, and that of Revelation 17/18 are just astounding. Both of these two passages describe A SUDDEN DESTRUCTION of Babylon, and in NO WAY resembles that of Rev.16:1” http://www.yesumulungi.com/Prophesy/Proph43.htm

It is at the hands of the ten kings in Revelation 17:16-17 that destroy Mystery Babylon. She is destroyed suddenly and in one hour. America as we know it ceases to be as she is in one hour; again Danny McDowell sheds more light on this…

“This is not possible since the destruction of “MYSTERY BABYLON” comes at the hands of TEN KINGS/HORNS of THE BEAST [Rev.17:16-17] at the behest of GOD HIMSELF. The destruction of MYSTERY BABYLON comes at a time when she proudly declares “I SIT AS A QUEEN, AND SHALL SEE NO HARM” [Rev18:7], and her destruction comes IN ONE HOUR [Rev.18:8, and 10]! Babylon of Rev.16:19 simply COMES INTO GOD’S REMEMBERANCE as he concludes his punishment of the earth. It is clear that “MYSTERY BABYLON” is “burned with fire” at the height of her delusion. More on this to follow.”

World War III NOT End of world but Beginning of sorrows...
There is no doubt that the beginning of sorrows is coming, this is the time to hide in God’s Word, obey God’s Commands and Trust in Jesus Christ. Those who still bank on trusting money and riches of this world are in for very big disappointment. The great humbling is coming and we better humble ourselves before God humbles us.

These current events i.e. the rise of Iran and Gog Magog war, are not leading to ‘Rapture’ of the saints as some quarters would like us to believe. The rapture will happen after ‘The Tribulation of those days’… What is happening right now is that we are going to be getting into the Tribulation, the Antichrist and False Prophet are going to be revealed and there is going to be sorrow upon sorrows. Nations are going to be judged and wiped off the map by cataclysmic judgments from The Lord.

Millions are going to die and for Christians, there is going to be intense persecutions as never happened – Record breaking persecutions. Yes, all the American armies gathering around the Euphrates are not there to play games but being positioned so Bible prophesies are fulfilled, and for sure, the developments in the Middle East are a very big sign to this generation that we are about to get into 'The beginning of Sorrows', the Tribulation, and yes the Second Coming of Jesus Christ after the Tribulation of those days.

The ‘beginning of sorrows is upon us’. Your only protection is in Jesus Christ, He alone can save you from this time of darkness coming upon the earth. It is time that you prepare spiritually by abiding in Jesus Christ, He alone will see you though the dark days of sorrows descending upon this earth.

Matthew 24:6-8(6) And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.(7) For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.(8) All these are the beginning of sorrows

In Christ Jesus
