Ask people to point to the country of Qatar on a map, and it is safe to say that the majority of people would struggle to find it. At only 100 miles (160 km) from north to south and 50 miles (80 km) from east to west, Qatar is small in size, yet it wields a tremendous amount of influence throughout the world.
When we think of modern Iran, which until 1932 was called Persia, it’s often in the context of geopolitical tension, especially with the state of Israel. But Persia’s role in biblical history tells a deeper, more complex story—one that stretches from Israel’s return from exile to the end-times battles of biblical prophecy.
Over the past few days, a literal genocide has taken place in Syria. You may not have heard about it in the mainstream media, but Islamic jihadists have slaughtered over 1,000 people—including hundreds of Christians.
“In recent days, Syria has witnessed a dangerous escalation of violence, brutality, and killings, resulting in attacks on innocent civilians, including women and children,” the statement said. “Homes have been violated, their sanctity disregarded, and properties looted, scenes that starkly reflect the immense suffering endured by the Syrian people.”
From the unsettling proliferation of drone swarm technology that could foreshadow the Antichrist's future surveillance state, to Israel's increasing strength against its enemies, to Russia's concerning military escalation—we're seeing Bible prophecy align with current events in remarkable ways.
If not such a serious matter of keeping Israel from the dastardly plans of the likes of Iran’s regime leaders, it would be hilarious to consider the paranoid reaction Israel’s “magical” doings have inflicted on those devoted to the destruction of the Jewish state and people.
Iran, up till now, had two main deterrents: Hezbollah and their ballistic missiles. However, over the last month, Israel has efficiently been neutralizing Hezbollah and has also been able to capture most of the ballistic missile barrages fired into Israel. For Iran, they now only wield one possible deterrent, the "nuclear option."
An Iraqi Christian wife and mother, Elvin Joseph, has been ordered by an Iraqi court to convert to Islam, along with her three children, based on the nation’s Personal Status Law. Akram Mikhail, a lawyer who has experience representing Christians, said he has seen other cases like Joseph’s. The law, he said, “forces someone to convert to Islam.”
Adding insult to injury, the POTUS delivered a shameful speech last Friday in which he exposed the administration’s total lack of competency when it comes it Israel, Hamas, and our fight for survival as a nation.
According to Time Magazine, "This conflict is so dangerous that the time has come for the international community to impose a solution." A compelled solution to the nations? That is precisely what the Bible predicted Daniel 9:27.
Reports that Russia is stationing forces closer along Israel's border are a cause for great concern. There are geopolitical ramifications and prophetic ramifications as well.
But through it all, we know that God is in control, and that is why there are great things happening too. You should see the number of pictures I receive from all over the world of churches, community groups, school classes, and families, all waving their Israeli flags and sending messages of love and support.
Threats from Islamists caused chaos in parliament on Wednesday, when the Speaker of the House of Commons broke with convention because he was persuaded of security concerns from Islamic protestors.
NATO already has plans regarding the bases and the different places they're going to hit in Yemen if these attacks are not stopped. Approximately 10% of the world's shipping goes through this hotspot.
Former US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman highlighted on Sunday that "If you are advocating for a cease-fire, you are on the side of those who want to exterminate the Jews."
Israel must decisively crush Hamas once and for all. This demonic entity can no longer exist in any shape or form and pose any threat to Israel ever again when this offensive in Gaza is finished.
We are a small nation, which means that every citizen of Israel was and is within striking range of the genocidal terrorists who perpetrated the October 7 attack. So many cannot close their eyes at night without asking, “What if that had been my family,” then picturing the horrific scenario playing out.
Folks read between the lines. This is the Secretary General of the UN, basically saying that Israel had it coming. This happened not because Hamas is a vicious, genocidal jihadist organization devoted to Israel's destruction. It happened because the Palestinian people have been supposedly subjected to 56 years of suffocating occupation.
When we see violence against the vulnerable or lies perpetrated against the naïve, we should be angry. But even such righteous wrath must not last, and it must not drive us to sin.
Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, and those supporting their efforts to destroy the Jews and the nation of Israel, are fighting against the plan of God, but they will not prevail.
In the coming Ezekiel 38 war, there are two countries joining Russia, Turkey, and Iran in their attack against Israel. Those countries are Libya and Sudan.
This elusive phantom of a comprehensive Mideast peace deal, which has been sought since Israel was re-established in 1948, now seems to be within reach. The prophetic significance of this is monumental.
Foreign Minister Eli Cohen said that he expects six or seven other Muslim nations to join Saudi Arabia in making peace with Israel. This fits right into the prophecies of the Ezekiel 38 war when these Gulf countries, referred to by Ezekiel as Sheba and Dedan, will stand up and criticize the invasion against Israel rather than joining in.
The news media will sugarcoat the deal... In reality, everyone recognizes this for what it is. Tehran took US citizens as hostages, and Washington just paid $6 billion ransom to get them back.
The Iranian regime is not supplying Russia with weaponry out of the goodness of its heart. Barnea stated his belief that Russia could very well supply Iran with a kind of advanced weaponry that directly threatens the existence of the world's one and only Jewish state.
Today we see, for the first time in history, a coalition of nations working together that were identified by Ezekiel over 2500 years ago. Three of them, Russia, Turkey, and Iran, all have troops on the northern border of Israel, the very direction from which the Bible says they will invade.
Poor, developing countries have been denied access to loans for not promoting the LGBTQ agenda, while others have been sanctioned for not pushing ridiculous measures to try to reduce the earth’s temperatures. But while others see disaster and chaos, those of us who understand Bible prophecy recognize what’s going on.
The nations are shaking out just as we would expect them to be shaking out. These events in Ezekiel 38 are imminent and will happen soon. We need to keep our eyes on what's happening.
In the next 3-4 weeks, the very left-leaning Israeli Supreme Court will convene to discuss two issues that are far beyond its mandate. Depending on what they decide, the country could be sent reeling.
Witnesses say that it was shot down. Soon it was discovered that on-board the jet were Yevgeny Prigozhin and his second-in-command, Dmitry Otkin. The lesson? Don’t get on the wrong side of Vladimir Putin.
Good is called evil and evil good, the moral character of mankind continues to degrade, divorce is brutalizing marriages, babies are aborted in the womb, and cancer and disease are ravaging the bodies of many.
A top Israeli diplomat said that a normalization agreement wit Saudi Arabia would be "a historic opportunity for a peace process that will change the face of the Middle East and the whole world." That's a dramatic statement in light of Bible prophecy.
His plan is to restructure the United Nations into a stronger body with more enforcement capabilities. For years, I have been saying that climate change will be the basis for the coming one world religion. Lula sees it as the excuse for a one world government.
I was witness of it in my own country as the radical left did all they could to keep Benjamin Netanyahu out of the Prime Minister’s position using bogus charges. The liberals failed in my country. I pray they will fail in the US, also.
Iran's enemies are boasting and expressing their confidence that they have a golden opportunity to take advantage. Not so fast... You can try, but at the end of the day, God Almighty will have something to say about that.
The word “reform” here is not referring to some new shrinking of the Supreme Court’s mandate, while pouring more power into the legislative branch, as the liberal, fake news press will tell you. It is restoring the walls of the checks and balances to where they were three decades ago.
Prime Minister Netanyahu should be the one to make a preemptive first strike. Otherwise, Israel will be put in reactive mode having to clean up the damage and loss of life that Hezbollah will cause.
The media buys into the lies of the liberal left, and the people eat it up. For the sake of the country, judicial change must happen. But it is going to be a long battle.
The most dramatic events lie ahead of us. Israel today is an island of less than nine million immigrants surrounded by a sea of three hundred million enemies, many of them eager to wipe the tiny nation off the map.
What Netanyahu and company have showed us these past days is that they are fully prepared to bring school into session and give Hamas and Islamic Jihad as many lessons as are needed for them to finally get the point.
Ukraine's embassy to Israel on Sunday, no doubt with the blessing of Kyiv, launched a fierce volley directed at the Israeli government, accusing Israel of not being neutral in the Ukraine-Russia war but instead taking a "pro-Russia position."
When many look at the world around us, they see chaos. I see something different. I see God warning the people of this world that His judgment is coming soon. The Bible shows us that this is the way He operates – warning, then judgment.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not bow to US pressure to make nice with the ayatollahs. Said the PM, “Our position is clear: Israel will not be bound by any deal with Iran and will continue to defend itself.”
Only a compromised and foolish Democrat-led government, along with their liberal, progressive EU buddies, will believe in it. The Israelis won’t buy it. The Saudis won’t buy it. The Iranian regime will gladly sign it, but they won’t hold to it.
So, while President Biden says his administration is adamantly opposed to Iran developing a nuclear weapon, he is accepting an Iran that is on the verge of doing so.
“There is a clear policy of preventing Iran from entrenching in Syria, from building an infrastructure that threatens Israel, a terrorist infrastructure that seeks to turn the quiet Golan Heights border into a war-fighting border"
Recently, Israeli intelligence has uncovered very strong evidence that Hezbollah is planning an attack in northern Israel in which villages will be invaded and hostages taken.
More than 97% of Iranians are considered Muslim by their government, but as Oklahoma-based Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) notes, those numbers don’t reflect the increasing numbers who are reportedly leaving Islam and following Jesus Christ.
Russia has hit Ukraine time and again on the ground and, especially, in the air with missiles and drones. It is the latter weapon that has Ukrainian intelligence considering a philosophy that we in Israel know very well. When the weapons keep coming, you hit the source.
This action was in retaliation for the firing of 104 rockets at Israel on May 2. The bombs dropped from the fighter jets in Operation Shield and Arrow killed Khalil Bahtini, Tareq Izzeldeen, and Jehad Ghanam, three of the PIJ’s top commanders.
So far, over 400 rockets have been fired, and several have hit homes in southern Israel. At least eight people have been hurt while running for bomb shelters in southern Israel.
It is remarkable how difficult it is to find a media story on the hundreds of thousands of conservatives who gathered in Jerusalem and other cities around Israel in support of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his judicial reform bill.
That time period has not started now, but it would seem like Israel is in Tribulation-like turmoil even now. Many of us have watched Israel in recent months and have come away puzzled by all the chaos.
All you need to do is to look at the existence of Israel to be reminded that when God says He is with you and will carry you through, you can take that promise to the bank.
Iran is giving a lot here, folks, 1000s of drones, a drone factory on Russian soil, a million rounds of ammunition 300,000 artillery shells in the past half year alone. This begs the question, is this a quid pro quo relationship?
Iran is busy building relationships with proxy militias in various countries. Israel, on the other hand, is spending its time strengthening ties with actual countries.
The land of Israel belongs to the Lord and He has promised that it will never be destroyed. So, no matter the plans that the ayatollahs or the mullahs or the terrorists or President Putin have for God’s tiny nation on the east coast of the Mediterranean, Israel will survive.
Tensions remain high in and around Israel following a remarkably violent weekend that included hostilities vis-à-vis Lebanon, Gaza, Syria and the West Bank districts of Judea, Samaria and the Jordan Valley.
A nuclear Iran is a very big concern for Israel and rightly so. Iran holds regular rallies that call for Israel’s destruction, and now has missiles that can reach all parts of the Jewish state.
While many are disappointed that the PM put a freeze on the judicial plan, most recognize the need for it. Moshe Saada, a member of Netanyahu’s Likud party, said that Israel was on the cusp of a military coup.
More than 100,000 Israelis protested outside the Knesset in Jerusalem today, as tens of thousands of others took to the streets at separate rallies nationwide, amid a general strike called by the largest labor union and entities in the private sector.
The progressive, liberal, deceptive, and diabolical demon has completely taken over a large portion of Israeli society to the degree of what the Bible calls: STRONG DELUSION!
On the inside of the country, the liberal left has become absolutely unhinged...The divisions have become so stark and the left has become so irrational that I believe my beloved country is closer to civil war than it has ever been.
