One Big Fur Ball Set to Fly

A loyal reader and commenter sent this summary of what is currently happening in the Middle East.  Yes, it would seem that the fur is getting ready to fly.

Reading the news today and reflecting on current events. I thought I would write a bullet point summary to put in perspective.

The UN is calling for Assad to step down in Syria. We request, "pretty pretty please with sugar on top" that you stop killing your people.

Syrian rebels backed by AL-Queda and the US are stockpiling of ammunition and medical supplies in preparation for a major battle in Aleppo.

Russia is sending arms / ships / advisers and wants Assad in power for the warm water port they have invested billions on in the Mediterranean.

Iran is has pledged troops to help Assad and in doing so has Russia's support for their nuclear program.

Al-Qaeda in Iraq is sending fighters to Syria to defeat Assad to create a Syrian-Iraqi Islamic state to prepare for a war against Iran and Israel, and free Palestine.

Iran Ayatollah Khomeini held a pep rally for his martyrs brigades and IRGC last week and told them to prepare for the battle and the end of the world.

Turkey is closing its borders with Syria and sending troops and armor to the border. Syrian citizens are fleeing to Iraq.

Sunni backed Al-Qaeda in Iraq is taking back the areas that they lost in the American occupation.

Shia backed operatives in Iraq are targeting Al-queda and bolstering their presence via the militias.

Syrian Chemical weapons are being moved to the Lebanese border in case Assad falls and they can be transferred Hezbollah.

Israel has stated they will act decisively to keep these weapons out of the hands of Hezbollah.

Assad has warned he will use Chemical weapons if attacked from outside.

The United States has warned that this is a red line if these are used.

Hezbollah, backed by Iran and the MB, whose core goal is the destruction of Israel has told their soldiers to prepare for battle.

Hezbollah has stated they will attack Israel if Israel attacks Syria.

Iran has published a war strategy to close the Persian gulf by force and in doing so shut of gulf oil to the west.

The Muslim Brotherhood (MB) has said if Israel is an aggressor in Lebanon or Syria that the Sadat Peace Treaty is void.

The boarder crossing between the west bank and Egypt is now open requiring no visa.

Arms from Libya are passing through Egypt into Gaza un-obstructed.

The MB in Tunisia are calling for the final Caliphate.

Now as the MB has taken control of North Africa they are turning their focus on the Gulf Arab countries.

The MB and Iran are forging closer ties. Big Majorities in Jordan, Egypt Want Assad to Step Down and Syria to be liberated.

The United States has reaffirmed our support for The MB and Egypt by the transfer of over a billion dollars.

Christians and other non Muslim minorities are fleeing the newly liberated democracies in the middle east seeking political asylum in any countries that will have them.

The light is fleeing the darkness.

Add on top of all this volcano's, earthquakes, weather extremes, droughts and other wars brewing...

 

Thanks Tom F. for the bullet points.  When you lay it all out like that it certainly becomes increasingly apparent that the world is in desperate need for a Savior to come and figure it all out. 

 

The bad news is that the Antichrist will most likely be that initial savior.  The good news is that all believers of Jesus Christ will have been withdrawn in the rapture BEFORE the Antichrist is revealed.

 

"For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back (Holy Spirit indwelling believers) will continue to do so til he is taken out of the way.  And then the lawless one (Antichrist) will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming."  2 Thessalonians 2:7-8

 

How is the Holy Spirit removed from the earth?  By taking all the saints into the clouds and physically removing us from the earth in the rapture.

 

Can you hear the footsteps and understand that we are in the season of His return?
