A stunning report published by Jane's Defense Weekly confirms rumors of a July explosion at a Syrian military base at al-Safir, near Aleppo, in which reportedly "dozens" of Iranian engineers were killed along with their Syrian counterparts. Syria had originally dismissed reports of the explosion by saying the blast was generated by the desert heat causing the accidental detonation of a stockpile of explosives. Jane's reported that the explosion was actually triggered while the engineers were fitting a chemical warhead onto a Scud-C missile.

Yeah, so have I. So have dozens of other theologians who I respect very much. The thing is, these dozens of respected Pastors and theologians have dozens of takes on Bible prophecy and each one can totally document their position with scripture. There are also hundreds of hacks who selectively interpret prophecy literally and figuratively, as needed, to get where they wanted to be in the first place. So hey, maybe Hal is right this time. Maybe all of those dozens of failed predictions of his were just a fluke and this time he's right on the money. But I'm not going to hold my breath.
It would have had if it had not been mitigated.
One sure way to know for sure...when it plays out. One thing is for certain, there’s too much happening — too much coming together as scripture said it would — for it to be a coincidence.
Perhaps. All I can do trust in Jesus Christ and work on my sanctification through prayer and following his word. Everything else will play out exactly as it’s supposed to.
