"I'm beginning to feel like I'm stuck in a bad rendition of a Hal Lindsay scenario..."

I know how you feel. We went to the church picnic yesterday. I ended up discussing this with a lady I'd never met before. I told her about Fr. Morris not "poo-pooing" the audience question about the end times; that he said it did seem as though events were coming together; BUT that he also said "They have been saying this for 2000 years," (which he said with a grin). Still, she was somewhat shaken.

It's never ever fit together this close. And there are times I find myself praying that it is, cause otherwise, there is a world of hurt coming up for this poor planet...

I don't usually jump in and start or chime in much on end times threads, in part because I often don't agree with the more popular explainations, but at times like this, some paralells jump up and hit me between the ears...

I keep having the feeling like this is either the start of WWIII and possibly "end times" thing, or the plot out of a Tom Clancy novel.

imho,

Reading Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Psalms Mat 24 and Revelation regularly in this era is just good horse sense. Lots of things will become more obvious once things predicted have past. The cryptic language becomes clearer.

Many things are not that cryptic, however.

Israel became a nation again in a day in 1948 as Scripture predicted.

Jerusalem is a heavy weight around the neck of the whole world as predicted. Russia is allied with Syria and Persia against Israel as predicted.

The King of the East may be China--it is certainly allied with Persia against Israel . . . also within such predictions. But India and the -stans are also against Israel.

Israel will likely still be disciplined as Scripture indicates--for foresaking her close relationship with Almighty God. She is currently rather rabidly secular over all--with minor exceptions.

Damascus will be obliterated for good.

Gog and Magog will be essentially obliterated in a war with Israel and never more rise to any significance.

All creation will observe what rebellion against God and relationship with God result in . . . in terms of consequences.
