Bible Predicts Middle East Blood Flow
Prophecy continues to unfold.
The Bible has warned about Middle East turmoil increasing "in the latter times.
" In Ezekiel 36-39, God speaks of bringing Jews from around the world to Israel, not because they deserve their own land but to vindicate His holy name.
They besmirched deity's holy name by repeatedly sinning over centuries; but God will not tolerate His holiness smeared without vindication, hence Jews gravitating to Israel "in the end times.
" So look to the divine miracle: May 14, 1948, when Israel became a nation for the first time in centuries.
Jews from all over the globe went to Israel, their homeland.
Ezekiel predicted Israel's flourishing: herds, flocks, fruitage, ruined cities rebuilt.
With Israel having settled in, however, biblical predictions go on to state that the enemies surrounding Israel attack Jews mercilessly.
Blood flows like rivers.
Natural calamities come also upon Israel, convincing Jews and Gentiles alike that God is God and that His holiness must be recognized.
At the close of the Church Age -- "in the latter days" -- Israel will then come under the blessing of the returned Messiah Christ's peace.
What we now are hearing in daily news is the detailing of these biblical predictions, some having been fulfilled and others yet to be fulfilled.
Add to this the detail Christ revealed to His disciples two thousand years ago.
Seated on the Mount of Olives -- from which He ascended and to which He will descend at His return -- Christ elaborated signs revealing the close of the Church Age: false christs, false messiahs, wars and rumors of wars, increase of sin, famine, earthquakes, pestilence, warring within families, believers put to death, holiness hated and the preaching of the gospel worldwide.
All of these general, worldwide signs are taking place now.
What is particularly interesting is that the Ezekiel Israel-signs are in place -- Jews returned to Israel as their own nation, Israeli enemies staged to attack Israel, and threats of global holocaust coming from the chief killing antichrist on the planet -- Islam.
Put the more generic signs of Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 alongside the specific Israel signs of Ezekiel 36-39 and you have the converging of the "latter day" signs.
ALLAH: "Fight, slay Unbelievers wherever ye find them.
Seize them, beleaguer them, lie in wait for them in every stratagem of war.
" Qur'an, Sura 9:5 CHRIST: For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
