WHAT ABOUT IRAQ.....WHAT ABOUT IRAN.....WHAT ABOUT ISLAM?

p. 65-72  "Jesus is coming" by diana scheich

 

IRAQ is the site of the Tower of Babel and occupies the same land as the biblical Babylon.  It was called UR and Abraham lived there before leaving for the Promised Land.  The first established city in the world was Babel.  Nimrod, a very wicked man, established the city where occult practices were born and flourished.

Read Gen. 11:9 ...where the people became so depraved and arrogant that God destroyed their tower and scattered them.

 

In 586 B.C. King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon came against Judah, destroyed the Holy City and carried most of her people away as slaves to Babylon along with many temple treasures....after 70 years they returned home.

 

Terrible judgment is pronounced on Babylon in the Tribulation...it will be destroyed in ONE HOUR! Rev. 18:8

Note:  The EU has built a replica of the Tower of Babel in Strasburg, France..."Many tongues, one voice".

 

IRAN is the modern name for ancient Persia.  Ezek. 38:1-5.  Russia and Iran will be driving forces in a coalition that will come against Israel to destroy her in the last days.. However, God will destroy them on the mountains surrounding Israel!

WWI:  Balfour Declaration...Israel declared the right to have a homeland again (2000 years after dispersion around the world)

WWII:  Israel became a nation again on May 14, 1948

WWIII:  (Ez. 38-39...a forerunner to WWIII)-Armageddon.

On Feb. 11, 2010, Iran declared itself to be a nuclear state.  Read Matt. 25: 31-46 for God's promise for the nations who come against Israel.

 

ISLAM was founded by Muhammad in 622 A.D.  He claimed to be a descendant of Ishmael (son of Abraham and Hagar).  Militant Muslims have declared a holy war (Jihad) against Jews and Christians whom they portray to be "apes and pigs."  Muslims do not believe that Jesus is the Son of God.  It is estimated that there may be 3-6 million Muslims in the USA. Islam considers the USA to be the "big satan" and Israel to be "little satan."  Islam believes in "conquest by the sword."  Muhammad taught that it is the will of Allah that Islam should rule the world. It will be predominantly Muslims who will come against Israel in the last days. Ez. 39:4  After this battle,   it will take seven months to bury the dead, and Israel will use discarded weapons for fuel the next seven years (Ez. 39:9-12).  Many Muslims will still be left in Europe and the rest of the world after this battle since this is NOT Armageddon.  It is believed that this battle will occur close to the beginning of the Tribulation. At the beginning of the 7 years, the European Union, led by the Antichrist, will make a move to gain control of Israel setting the stage for the last 7 years of this age....the Tribulation.

 

NOTE THAT ALL ARABS ARE NOT MUSLIMS AND ALL MUSLIMS ARE NOT ARABS.  Arabs are a race of people. Islam is a religion.  

Allah is said to be unknowable, distant and alone.

Jesus Christ invites us to have a personal relationship with Him..."Behold, I stand...." Rev. 3:20 

 

Enjoying a relationship with Jesus Christ,

Becky
