North Korea Warns Region is Close to Nuclear War

There will be wars and rumors of war.

If the final days aren't cut short by Jesus' return, Jesus said NO FLESH on earth would survive.

North Korea's state-controlled media warned Tuesday that America's "military provocations" risked triggering nuclear conflict — with one newspaper claiming Kim Jong Un's regime was "waiting for the moment it will reduce the whole of the U.S. mainland to ruins."

The latest threat from North Korean state media came hours after the two U.S. B-1B Lancer bombers flew training drills with the South Korean and Japanese air forces in another show of strength.

Despite a flurry of recent missile tests, North Korea has not demonstrated that it's capable of hitting the United States mainland with a nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missile, or ICBM.
Many experts predict the reclusive country is some way off its goal.

The North still maintains it has the technology to do so, however, and on Tuesday an anchor on North Korea's state-controlled KRT broadcaster issued a new warning to Washington.

"Due to the U.S. military provocations that are becoming more explicit day by day, the situation in the Korean peninsula ... is being driven to a point close to nuclear war," he said, according to a translation by Reuters.

Fiery rhetoric by North Korea against the United States and its allies is not uncommon, but the latest salvo comes at a time of particularly heightened tensions following a tougher line taken by Trump and his team.

The president said last week that a "major, major conflict" conflict with North Korea was possible, and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has suggested that military action is "on the table."
There have also been mixed messages from Trump, however, with the president telling Bloomberg News on Monday that he would be "honored" to meet the North Korean dictator. He also called Kim "a pretty smart cookie" in a CBS interview.

The newspaper — which, like all North Korean media, is strictly controlled by the state — warned that the North Korean army would "make such gigantic carriers something useless," apparently referring to their destruction.
It said America's "vast territory is exposed to our preemptive nuclear strike" and that its army was "waiting for the moment it will reduce the whole of the U.S. mainland to ruins with its absolute weaponry of justice."

Do we believe that a nuke is going to one day hit America and collapse our country?

Maybe.

Why?

Because America can't be found in Bible prophecy....so most watchers believe the reason they aren't is because something knocked us off the scene as a world power.

Do we believe that the rapture MAY happen before America falls from power?

We do.

Why?

Because Jesus said in the days leading up to the very last days, people would be eating, drinking, marrying, planting, building....basically doing the everyday routines of life and having NO CLUE that destruction was right around the corner.  Having America destroyed by nukes and the Western world collapsing in domino style would NOT fit the scenario that Jesus mentions would be indicative of the very last days.
