The decision by Russian President Vladimir Putin to launch an illegal and immoral invasion of Ukraine has dominated global headlines and social media for the last week.
It has also generated a wave of questions about Bible prophecy and the End of Days.
I’m receiving questions from Christian pastors and lay people — and from Jewish rabbis and scholars, as well as journalists — all over the world. While there are many variations, they generally fall into two main categories.
First, are there biblically prophetic implications to this horrible new war in Ukraine and fears throughout Europe that Putin may invade other countries as well?
Second, could this war in Europe trigger the End Times scenario that the Hebrew prophet Ezekiel described as the “War of Gog & Magog” in chapters 38 and 39 of the Book of Ezekiel?
(snip)
Old and New Testament prophecies that describe future events, particularly events that will occur in what the Bible describes as “the last days,” remain a mystery to many.
Unfortunately, very few pastors or Bible teachers have ever carefully studied these prophecies, much less take the time to explain them to lay people.
Indeed, most pastors tend to ignore End Times prophecies altogether.

It has given Germany a reason to militarize. We all know where that leads.

Maranatha!
Germany and Military together is always like Nitro & Glycerin.
There is a prophesized “Prince of Rosh” in the Bible. Rosh is Russia.
People have been trying to see if there is a link between what is happening in their current lives and what is in the book of Revelation since it was written nearly 2000 years ago. At some point there will be but regardless always have faith in Jesus and try your best to live as Christ has commanded.
As always, if you haven’t considered it, a very good time to begin a relationship with Jesus folks......it’s the ultimate protection and personally THE absolute best decision I ever made.
Christians who look to and love the appearing of Jesus Christ have a Crown that will be given to them.
Can’t wait for mine!
If you're suggesting Germans are uniquely evil or aggressive, I disagree. Time to retire all anti-white stereotypes.
👍
Bears repeating!
Russia isn’t pointing nukes at Ukraine.
That mundane drive to work this morning could be your last.
That health report you got from your doctor a few months ago that you have neglected to address could knock you out cold today.
JESUS CHRIST = SALVATION
We are not promised tomorrow.
John 10:9-13
John 6:29
John 14:6
Every study Bible I’ve ever read said that Tarshish was Spain, not Britain.
That’s part of the reason I said in my post YMMV for nations/names.
Britain always had ancient commerce for its tin even during the first millennium BC. Phoenicians led the way in that industry bringing it to the Mediterranean. Some scholars call Tarshish modern day Britain.
I actually favor the view that Tarshish is where the “Pillars of Hercules” is - Gibraltar or Spain.
To peace. Germany has enjoyed nearly seven decades of peace since it remilitarized under Chancellor Konrad Adenauer.
Russia getting a foothold in the Ukraine would be a strategic move and position to have for an invasion of Israel.
Pre trib rapture dispensationalism. And very bad theology.
King of the North, Gog is represented by Babylon and Babylon is a religious power. A counterfeit religion. King of the South is represented by Egypt, a secular power. As in when Pharoah said.....”who is this God that I should obey him.”
Right now secularism rules. But as they continue to drive the plane into the ground.....so to speak.......it will be defeated by a return to religion. Because when the plane is going down.....everyone gets religious. And “her wound is healed”......that great apostate counterfeit church.
Revelation says “come out of her” and God is talking about a Babylon, a great apostate counterfeit church that thinks she can forgive sins....change the “times and law of God”....Daniel 7:25, that’s the Sabbath to sunday...and she of course persecuted the saints of God. She stands in the temple of God and is the abomination of desolation.
All of these catastrophic events are leading the world to unite someday .....soon...under her banner. Revelation speaks of a “remnant” who “keep the commandments of God”..that includes the 4th commandment. The seal of God...the Sabbath shows you worship him who made heaven earth and sea......it was made and sanctified in Genesis..it’s no more Jewish then adultery.
Dispensationalism, new covenant theology.....sounds good. But no Protestant Reformer ever taught it and it’s got people all confused. They think God still has a literal nation, Israel. Jesus said the Kingdom was taken from them and given to a nation to bear fruits......and so we are all spiritual Israel. So while dispensationalist are looking at Israel and literal nations.....they are blind to spiritual Israel...us, and the counterfeit......Rome.
Same here.
Absolutely.
There’s still a lot of drama to be played out though IMHO.
What would cause Turkey to all of a sudden want to align with Russia? Right now, they really are not happy with Russia being in Syria.
Same for Iran. Iran doesn’t trust Turkey.
Something worldwide has to shift incredibly quickly for these 3 powers to all of a sudden drop their differences and target tiny Israel.
Wink? Nod?
Ahh....A preterist and a replacement theologist coming to confuse the conversation.
Speaking of bad theology.
