*********************************************
 
Read Pages 23-26 "Jesus is Coming" by Diana Schiech
Read Ezekiel 38-39
Israel is the center of all end-time prophecy.
Zech. 12:2 (read)...a country less than 8,000 square miles!
After the prophet Ezekiel was taken captive by the Babylonians in 597B.C., the prophet Jeremiah prophesied that one day Israel would be reborn.  Ez. 37:21
Israel was allowed to return home and being rebuilding their temple in 537B.C....but they were never a nation again until May 14, 1948.
Its almost like reading today's paper when we read about how surrounding hostile nations will rise up against Israel in the last days soon after they are reborn (Ez. 38-39). Prime Minister Netanyahu recently stated that Ezekiel 37 had been fulfilled. So when will the Ez. 38-39 war take place?  Practically all Islamic countries want to see Islam retake Jerusalem and the entire country of Israel.
read Ex. 38:9-10.
8 participants:
Russia (Rosh), Central Asia (Magog), Turkey (Meshech), Turkey, southern Russia & Iran (Tubal), Iran (Persia), Sudan & Libya (Ethiopia/Cush), Turkey (Gomer), southern Turkey (Beth-togarmah), Leader of Coalition (Gog)..."and many peoples with you."
Ez. 38:13 indicates that possibly Spain and English-speaking nations will weakly protest the invasion but will not be able to help.  This is because God Almighty, Himself will take over this battle!  It will take seven months to bury the Dead (Ez. 39:12) and Israel will use the discarded weapons for firewood for seven years (Ez. 39:9).
Scholars believe that this war will take place right before or soon after the Antichrist and Israel sign a 7 year peace treaty that marks the beginning of the Tribulation period (Dan. 9:27).
After the 7 years of Tribulation, there will be a massive world war at Armageddon.
Rev. 6:4 describes the Second Seal....the Fiery Red Horse of the Apocalypse.
It is amazing to learn that only one-sixth of the opposing army will remain (Ez. 39:2).  God's Victory!
However, After the Islamic army suffers such great defeat, the way will be clear for Antichrist to gain influence and control over the world without much resistance.  There will be a false peace when Israel rebuilds their temple the first three and one half years of Peace Treaty.      
 
May we be keenly aware of the nearness of Christ's Rapture of the church.  Any day now!....!....!
 
Excited about God's plans,
Becky
