ALMIGHTY GOD vs. IRAN & CURRENT EVENTS
Published 2024-08-07
When WORLD NEWS intersects with God's Word!
Who does God say will come against His chosen people?
Listen to the list in Ezekiel 38:5-6.
It is actually quite impressive, almost like this morning's newspaper. Here are the players in one of the most significant conflicts of all time:
• PERSIA or IRAN as we call it today. In the Bible, this is the family of Elam, the firstborn of Shem. Remember that Abraham comes through the third-born son (Genesis 10:22), Arphaxad, not Elam.
• CUSH This is modern black Africa, which originated in the ancient world between the 2nd and 3rd cataracts of the Nile.
• PUT, or what we call today North Africa, comes through this third son of Ham. Modern Libya used to be called the Puttites. This would include the Algerians, Tunisians, Moroccans, and Mauritanians.
• GOMER or the Cimmerians are easily identified by looking at the Babylonian Talmud (written during the Jews' exile to Babylon and then Persia in Daniel’s time and after), where they are called Germania or Germany. These tribes settled and flourished between the Rhine and Danube River Valleys.
• TOGARMAH is the next group, and these are the tribes of Turkey, namely modern Armenia and Turkey.
• MESHECH is the 6th son of Japheth (Genesis 10:2). Assyrian inscriptions locate this group as dwelling in Phrygia and Anatolia (modern Turkey). The Greek historian Herodotus calls these same tribes the Mushki and says they came down from the Black Sea mountains, which is NE of Turkey. In the 1st Century, Josephus says that Meshech dwells in Eastern Turkey.
• TUBAL is the fifth son of Japheth, whose descendants migrated to the same general area. In the war records of the Assyrians, these tribes are called Tibareni and Moschi and are located on the SE shores of the Black Sea—again, all in southern modern-day Russia.
• SHEBA and DEDAN are the grandsons of Abraham in Genesis 25:2 by his 3rd wife, Keturah. These are not from Ishmael but are separate lines. These may be the classic Arabic desert dwellers. They are seen in Ezekiel 38:13 as watching from the sidelines.
• TARSHISH was the grandson of Japhath, the 2nd son of Javan Genesis 10:2, the father of Greece.

Jesus please come and rapture your believers soon!

The entire world needs to understand this or experience God's oppostion. Many Christians need to understand it also. The Christian Church has NOT replaced Israel in God's plan.

Ezekiel 37 is not talking about people being in shambles and not believing it's literally about the first resurrection in the first half when dealing with the bones. Ezekiel 37:12 Verse Ezekiel 37:12. I will open your graves — Here is a pointed allusion to the general resurrection; a doctrine properly credited and understood by the Jews, and to which our Lord refers, John 5:25; John 5:28-29: "The hour is coming when they that are in their graves shall hear his voice, and come forth."

LORD knows I pray for us all. If it wasn't for The LORD it's impossible to deal with what's ahead. People have no idea what is going to happen nor how. I love you as HE who loved me first.

And don't forget that earlier in Ezekiel 36 when He was talking to the land. It was to bring back ALL of the house of Israel. Not some people. All of Israel is not in the land of Israel.
-
what a loving god this is
-
Please re read your Bible in context to the time period it what written. Revelation is not written for the people of 2024 it was written for the people of 70ad.
-
When was this teaching originally? Pretty much everyone is against Moscow nowadays. And 53: 06 something most terrible happened on October 7th, 2023, which is not even mentioned.

The silk story needs to be fact checked but that was cute anyway
-
1948 doesn't make sense because they don't believe in Jesus Christ. How do they know HE is The LORD? It also says in Ezekiel 36 HE will cause Israel to walk after all HIS commandments at this same time. None of the heathen round about clearly know Jesus Christ is LORD let alone those who dwell in the land of Israel. None of them know who THE LORD is. How does this logic pair to Luke 21:24? When the fulfillment of the time of the gentiles is Luke 21:27? The bible doesn't contradict itself so we have to change what we're saying not change the bible to fit what we want it to say.

This is premillennialism nonsense.
