Pray for the peace of Israel!
Funny you should mention that. He deals with it in Eze 38& 39. This is some time before and separate from the events in Revelation.
I will be 60 soon so I understand what you say about war. As a Christian and student of the Bible urge you to correct your prayer.
God deals with this Muslim problem in Ezekiel 38&39 not in Revelation. It is localized in it's nature involving Israel's treatment by her blood relatives.
It may look like world war is fixing to break out but it won't. It will be like the Six day war only on a larger scale and it will be obvious to all the world that it is a miraculous intervention of God.
When it is over Israel will be the dominant power in the Middle East and the world will be lulled into a sense of false peace with the Islamic problem dealt with.
If you study the events and players in Revelation you will notice the absence of Islamic presence.
In the War of Gog and Magog in Ezekiel God punishes Israel's kinsmen for the way they have treated her,ands makes the way for Israel to resume Temple worship which she does in chapter 40 and the other nations of the world are not involved.
In Revelation which happens later maybe as much as 20 or 40 years or as little as seven years this is where God deals with the rest of the nations of the world for the way they have treated her.
They are separate events the participants in one is on a local scale and in the other it is the Battle of Armageddon on a world wide scale.
I think the war of Gog and Magog is very close at hand which is why I urge you to reconsider your prayer.Though it will be shocking to the world I think you may want to see this one.
God is going to show the world that He is alive and well and just how easy, quickly, and efficiently He can solve this Arab Israeli problem they have struggled with for decades and made worse.
I think the reason He may be allowing this terrible removing of the Jews from the area they are in is to remove them to safety from the area that may be hit.
You notice that they don't allow a Jew to remain in any areas they take over.
It is amazing in the Bible how God turns evil intentions of men into good and uses His enemies own evil acts to do his will.
Change that prayer and trust in our Savior no matter how bad things look He is in complete control.
Great book. I ordered all 3 of his books.
Amen! How you doing???
Everyone been helping each other. Wonderful to see the generosity of even those in need helping those who are worse off.
I know what you see on TV but these people in this part of the country are the salt of the earth.
If you are in trouble or in need this is where you want to be.
On the other hand if you are looking to take advantage of people or cause trouble this is the last place you will not only not want to be,but most likely will be.
Sorry about the late reply but had to run to town.
A student told his professor he was going to "Palestine" to "fight for freedom, peace and justice,"—Orwellian leftist code words that mean "murder Jews."
