Turkey appears to be part of the Ezekiel 38 Gog-Magog war, along with Iran, in attacking Israel.
So this could get ... interesting.
We definitely live in interesting times.
Unfortunately.
That was my very first thought...according to some prophecy interpretations this is exactly what happens.
Everything is so upside down right now it is hard to keep track of the players. Although the Bible tells us exactly who they are, the alliances all seem unlikely, but it is all falling into place.
Russia, Iran, Turkey, Syria and ISIS. The only oddity is Putin’s disdain for islam, but the access to the spoils of war is a mighty motivation.
Either Ezekiel 38 or Isaiah 17, the sudden destruction of Damascus. When Assad falls, the question will be who gets control of his military, name his WMD’s? Syria has both chemical and biological warheads mounted on medium range missles. If Hezbollah or ISIS gets access to these weapons, they will not hesitate in firing them onto Tel Aviv or Hafia. They may even use Damascus as a human shield. But that will not deter Israel in retaliating with nuclear weapons.
Syria is to be watched closely this summer and how Israel reacts.
Perhaps the 70 weeks of Daniel has been restarted.
It stopped when the anointed one was cut off ? Or when the 2nd temple was destoryed in 70AD ?
Some say that the conjuntion of Venus and Jupiter high in the western sky near the star Regulus hasn’t happened since Christ was born.
Perhaps ? The sign in the sky tonight is a restart of God’s prophetic clock of the 70 weeks of Daniel.
Or was Israel’s rebirth as a nation a restart of God’s prophetic clock of the 70 weeks of Daniel ?
