I’m not a “bible skeptic”. I’m a dispensationalism skeptic. Different thing altogether.

I see bittersweet times till He takes us home.

I agree.

2 Timothy 3: 1-2 - But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy....

Even Bible Prophecy teachers who know that Jesus is coming soon and the many prophecies of the end times will be fulfilled, don’t necessarily agree with one another on this one...

There was an interesting program from David Reagan’s ministry, Lamb and Lion Ministries (out of McKinney, Texas, just north of Dallas) — about this subject of Babylon, actually, more to the point, where will the Antichrist’s headquarters be.

You might take a look at it, as it involved interviewing many different prophecy teachers about this subject...

God keeps His promises and fulfills prophecies and there's nothing shrouded in figurative language or obscure.

Here are one or two Biblical prophecies that have been fulfilled throughout history. Makes you pretty certain that all the rest of God's prophecies will be fulfilled as well, including those concerning Babylon.

I think Joel Rosenberg's purpose was to demonstrate how Babylon is in the process of being rebuilt after having been nothing but ruins for several thousands of years.

Things are beginning to happen with an area of the world that been forgotten and ignored for a long, long time. And I'm positive that it's not coincidental that God said that Babylon would be rebuilt and be a major center of commerce during the Tribulation.

As an aside, a friend of my son's who had served over in Iraq was home about a year ago and, in the middle of a picnic, stood up and told the people there that they better make sure they're saved, because things are beginning to happen with Babylon. He would say no more about it, but I thought it was rather odd.

I think this is like Babylon 5.

Hmmm. The beast from the sea?

I truly don’t understand HOW they can believe a Demoncrat when they say they won’t raise taxes on the middle class? They truly have NO LOGIC or COMMON SENSE.

So turning the ruins of Babylon into a tourist attraction is the equivalent of rebuilding the city and turning it into the seat of world government? OK, sure.

Ho, ho. Just wait until someone eisegetes Isaiah 17.

" I truly don’t understand HOW they can believe a Democrat when they say they won’t raise taxes on the middle class? They truly have NO LOGIC or COMMON SENSE. "
.....
It's as if they were blinded by something.... kind of like weird Twilight Zone Bizarro World all mixed up in one...
As things unfold day by day, min by min .... this is becoming more and more like a bad B movie becoming reality... just freaky ....

Just speculation ....
Would Damascus be destroyed by one of Iran's nuke missiles heading towards Europe but failed in it's boost stage and fell on Damascus ?
or ? would be a suitcase nuke that someone set off in Damascus ?
or ? the USA hitting Damascus in retaliation for something ?
or ? Israel dealing with Damascus ? ...
all are possible scenarios..

If we would have used nukes, like we were supposed to, this problem would not have re-manifested in our lifetimes.
