Three players

This article is interesting because it mentions Russia, Turkey and Iran all in the same headline. Prophecy watchers understand that Russia is probably Magog, Turkey is Beth-Torgamah and Persia is Iran. Now open your old testament and read Ezekiel 38. These three, and others, are mentioned in an alliance that will come in the last days to wreak war on Israel. For the first time in human history, Russia is drawing very close to this coalition.

Conflagration

This is the headlines in the Jerusalem post;

It's interesting that his military general decided to use the work "Conflagration". That's a pretty intense word. He could have said, engagement, or battle or conflict, but chose the more severe word. I believe they can feel that the hatred of the world is really starting to build and they know it's simply a matter of time until they need to defend their existence.

Economy

It's interesting to think about how the whole economy of this country works. Most of us don't have a clue. We agree that a $20 bill is worth more than the paper it is printed on...but why? Because someone a lot smarter than us told us it was true, so we all agreed that it was. As the US has become more wealthy, we don't need God as much as we did when we had nothing. Afterall, we can irrigate corn so we can grow food without rain. But what if it all comes apart? Is that impossible?
