What does our Future Look Like?
Ahmadinejad -- It would seem that the Hitler for our generation has been spouting off again, issuing threats of doom and gloom against the nation of Israel. Physically, he is also a lot like Hitler - very slight build, a funny cartoon face, and dubious facial hair. But all kidding aside, this man is the Number One Enemy of the Jews today. He has a satanic blood lust to see all Jews everywhere tortured, killed painfully, and driven into the sea. This is his over-arching ambition in life, and has been furiously stockpiling caches of weapons and technology towards this end.
The battle of Gog and Magog will be World War III, but it will not be the last war where all the nations of the world will surround Israel and attempt to defeat her. The battle of Armageddon will be the last battle to be fought. But all the players for WW III, prophesied by God in the Holy Bible,are now all taking the stage, assembling their armaments, and are waiting for the moment when they will all attack.
Certainly we are living in the "last-days" and Christ will be returning very soon. For some that will be a time of great joy, but for others will be much different.
The word of the Lord came to me: "Son of man, set your face against God, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal; prophesy against him and say: 'This is what the Sovereign Lord say: I am agains you, O Gog, cheif prince of Meshech and Tbal. I will turn you around, put hooks in you jaws and bring you out with your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords. Persia, cush and Put will be with them, all with shields and helmets, also Gomer with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troops -- the many nations with you (Ezekiel 38:1-6).
To understand what is being stated, you need to know who the players are. God gives us the lists the major nations that will attack Israel, and they are:
- Magog - this is modern day Russia
- Persia - this is modern day Iran
- Meshech and Tubal, Togarmah - this region is modern day Turkey
- Ethiopia - this is modern Ethiopia
- Libya - this is modern day Libya
- Gomer - this is modern day Germany
Russia, the biggest End Times player, has already helped Iran build a nuclear reactor. Iran has repeated over and over their desire to wipe Israel off the map. Iran now has nuclear weapons capable of reaching Israel.
Militant Islam has two goals in our day and age. The first is that of spreading Islam to every country in the world. Second is the complete and total destruction of the Jewish people. Listen to this hatredin their own words, I don't want to be guilty of misstating their position:
This is not the position of just the "radical extreme", no, it's the position of hundreds of millions of Muslims today, and they are united in their desire to see harm come to Israel, and more important, the Jews themselves. Ideally, they would like to "drive the Jews into the sea" so that they might claim Jerusalem as their own.
Our future has been planned...there is no stopping it. Christ will be proclaimed Lord of Lords one day. That you can count on. It is not a question on how, but when!
