Vanity: Baghdad Falling Part of End Times?

[ConservativeMan55]

Baghdad looks like it's about to go down to Islamic Militants.

Some say Baghdad is Babylon? What happens when it falls?

Saw a fascinating Nat. Geo. program last year that is based on the theories of Assyriologist Stephanie Dalley:

The Hanging Gardens of…Nineveh?

There's a link in the article to her book that was published on the subject last year.

Dalley is a Professor at Oxford, and is one of the few people who can read Assyrian cuneiform. Here's a link to her page at Oxford:

“So what happens when Baghdad falls??? Wait a while and see”

At one time Iraq and Iran were basically united, no? Prior to being divided up by the British.

The population of Iran is predominantly Persian, while Iraq is Arab, so I don't think that is the case.

I have heard this rumor about a possible Turkish antichrist.

[Riflema]

FWIW, my thoughts exactly. Add to that Russia siding with Iran/ISIL. Not pretty at all.

[ConservativeMan55]

bump.

Obama will want to start a ground war with Iran next..

This is good...a slap down to the Babylon is New York or the Vatican nonsense:

Nifster, there is one HUGH difference now. Israel is once again a Nation after almost 2,000 years of diaspora.

[Wiz-Nerd]

Agreed. Things have not been the same since 9/11. Even my son has noticed this. So did a Messianic Rabbi. What was told in Isaiah 9:10 literally played out in America.

Two weeks after 9/11 a pastor in NY was giving the same message.

Republicans should be supporting

F15Eagle is correct in his post,

Everything that brings about the end will revolve around the division of what was restored in 1967 with Israel. Which is leading to the Jubilee restoration of the transgressors ‘coming to the full’ and of which there is a precise and conditional timing mechanism at work here,

Here is my conjecture: this is how and why the end comes when it does, everything else is a sideshow. Jesus told us there would be wars and rumors of War (WW1, WW2 and rumored WW3 “but the end is not yet”) but also there would be these kinds of miry conflicts of kingdom against kingdom, nation against nation at the end of age,

The restoration of Israel (I believe) is leading up to a Jubilee restoration that God will acknowledge in Heaven and as we’re shown in Daniel Chapter 7 and Revelation Chapters 4,5 and 6 with the court (24 Elders) going into session and the kinsman redeemer provisions (see the book of Ruth) being enacted with only Jesus being legally able (and willing as he does not have to do this for us) to meet these precise conditions to restore everything (and everyone) in this fallen creation. The Earth is his inheritance and it was stolen from him and he was cutoff with nothing. Read the parable of the wicked tenants and the vineyard,

Because this means his end, Satan is attempting to prevent the restoration of the Earth via the Laws and Ordinances enacted on the transgressors (Israel) for a set time, that is, Satan is attempting to prevent them from coming into effect as per the Law and scripture by A) breaking it by separating the restoration with false agreement or B) if that should fail, by placing a wall around it so that it can be encumbered by agreement and that it does not go out in the jubilee release per the strict requirements that must be met as outlined in Leviticus Chapter 25. I believe this is also why we’re shown that Jerusalem must be handed over in Revelation Chapter 11,

I think its this deceit for a false ‘peace and safety’ that is the ‘covenant with death’ Isaiah tells us about, and that it comes following when Israel agrees to divide the restoration (undoing what God gave them and where no power on Earth could take by force) and the result is that it brings the war in Heaven (as we’re shown in Revelation Chapter 12) with Satan being cast out to the Earth, and then comes the great tribulation, the time of Jacobs trouble following immediately after this (momentous,pivotal) event,

Google “Israel and the wall” and see pictures of it for yourself, they have some 400 miles completed already, Satan is the great deceiver and working both sides to his same end, he is being held back today only by the power of the Holy Spirit at work in the Earth (in this Earth, in you and I) and we’re told straightway that he will ‘no longer restrain’ at some future time, and if you think about it with the above conjectures in mind, you can begin to see why this must be,

8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.

9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.

10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

11 A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed.

12 For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

13 In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.

Leviticus 25:8-13

29 And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year may he redeem it.

30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubile.

31 But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubile.

Leviticus 25:29-31

"One of the scariest things about all of this is the 450 million dollars (in dinars) that was looted from the banks in Mosul this week - what the hell do you think the jihadi's will do with all that money?"

Can't do much. 450 million Iragi Dinars equals roughly $400,000 U.S.

[arderkrag]

Iraq has fallen plenty of times. I have yet to see how this is any different.

[sopwith]

Thanks just watched that. It lines up with Walid Shoebats take on it.

[arderkrag]

Yeh, WATCH, not “attempt to predict with bated breath”.

[aragorn]

Bump for later reading

[ConservativeMan55]

Thanks! bump!!

[ConservativeMan55]

You read it wrong.

The Dinars they stole equal out to 450 million dollars.

And on top of that.. they actually stole much much more than that. I’ve read in the billions with a B.
