Global Realignment In The Works? How Does It Play Into Prophecy? (VANITY)
Posted on 03/10/2003 4:10:06 PM PST by MississippiMan
First, let me be clear that this post is aimed at those who believe the prophecies of Revelation have not yet been fulfilled, and it would be great to not veer off on that tangent.
Question: Assuming that we're seeing a global realignment of nations with regard to who is friend and who is foe, how do you think it plays into the prophecies of Revelation?
I think we may see such a realignment. Looks like France, Russia, Germany, and China have now decided to be loving bedpartners, etc.
Thanks...

Following both Nostradomas and Revelations, I do not think this plays into it directly, I personally think that Revelations is a long way off, that being said, and many people may call me a simpleton for this, and so be it, but I do not think there is a single person on this earth, that will know gods plan, his plan is secret to us, trying to interpret it, or decipher it is foolish.

Revelations is not in play. Go check out Kings I, Kings II.

I think we're supposed to seek out the truths of the Bible. Will we understand it all? Nope, not even remotely close. Can we pinpoint the time of Christ's return? No way. But we can see major events that are prophesied in the Bible.

Interesting topic. I have a question and since Revelations is an overlay of Daniel, who is the three ribs in the mouth of the bear, Daniel 7:5
To: Just mythoughts
DANIEL 7:5 -- Three ribs -- A reference to the three-fold dominion of the second empire, Media, Persia, Babylonia.
I don't claim to know exactly what that means but that's what the Scofield commentary has to say about the three ribs.

Okay, here's the deal.
A. Anyone bringing Nostrodamus into this discussion should be drug outside and shot for sheer and irrevocable incompetence.
B. Now, I think it is clear where things are going. The World can allign themselves any direction they see fit...with regards to end time prophecy the key will be when that which holds back the darkness [Christians] are removed.
The Countries of the planet have all [every last one] moved to the left. Unfortunately I dont think this will change. Line upon line it will get worse. Until eventually everyone is lost in Liberal idiocy. Left will be right and up will be down in a manner of speaking.
Anyway, once the rapture occurs then the enemy will be free to run his plan to the hilt. The rapture will bring down the US. We have more Christians [in positions required for infrastructure] than any other nation. Once it happens...the Nation will be open to Military, biological, Chemical or Nuclear attack. The attack will come and the US though probably not completely destroyed...will be severely weakened and Israel will be defenseless.
Liberals within Israel have already steered their nation in the wrong direction and once the US is no longer a guarantee of safety the Europeans will be able to force their will upon them.
Anyone remotely familiar with scripture knows where it goes from there.
All this is a bit depressing but remember, in the end...
...we win.
:o)

Why should you care? Don't you think you will get raptured out before things get really bad?

I use The Companion Bible and v5 "it raised up itself: or, was made to stand. on one side: i.e. partially. three ribs, & This is not interpreted by the angel. The interpretations given by man are diverse, conflicting, and are unnecessary.
This sounds like modern day Russia the bear nation. Who the three ribs are not sure of.
To: CCWoody
Why should you care? Don't you think you will get raptured out before things get really bad? Yup, sure do. But there are signs prophesied to come before the Rapture.

That really doesn't answer my first question. Why do you care?

"Christians removed" where is that written?
Sad but true the first warning Christ gave is being ignored. When asked what would be the sign Thy coming, and of the end of the world? (this earth/heaven age)
Christ said very plainly the first thing "TAKE HEED THAT NO MAN DECEIVE YOU.
He did not say I will fly my church anywhere, now there will be someone appearing that is going to promise so many that very thing and guess who it will be, the wrong Christ.
No where in Matthew 24, Mark 13 or Luke 21 is there any fly away doctrine. Christ was very specific about what would be going on prior to his return.
To: VaBthang4
...with regards to end time prophecy the key will be when that which holds back the darkness [Christians] are removed. Agree on that, but there are prophesies before the Rapture that must be fulfilled, and my understanding has always been that one of those is a realignment of nations.

Make that prophecy.

What's removed is the
knowledge of God. It's something most people find inconvenient anyway. It would explain the throngs waiting along the broad road for the rapture bus. What kind of bus takes people to the "other side"? The ones with suicide bombers on them.
Amos 8:11-12 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.
To: Thinkin' Gal
It is apparent that we are living in the end times and Amos was writing modern day prophecy.
We are also told to wait, have patience, any wonder that Christ's return is describe like a thief in the night, nobody is expecting Him cause they believe the first supernatural being on earth is the real thing.
The true Christ will not return until the fake one sets himself up as as christ, the whole world will wonder after him except for the "elect".
To: Just mythoughts
Got any ideas on who that person might be?
By the way, you didn't get back to me on what we were talking about in freepmail. No rush, just waiting to see what you had to say.
