The warning signs that are presenting themselves are very clear; hence the posts I’ve made titled: Are You Ready for The Coming Perfect Storm?, and Are You Prepared for Turbulent Times Ahead?

Apparently the prophesy of Revelation 16:12 is taking place and will test our strength (all Christians) and our faith in the Lord, by bringing intense fear of the Islamic Nations throughout the world.

No matter how much we want to believe that we here in the USA are not or will not be effected, we must heed the Word of God and prepare for what He has planned for us.

While checking my RSS feeds today, I am humbled by the most recent post at Joel Rosenberg’s “Epicenter” blog titled: EUPHRATES RIVER DRYING UP: New York Times notes connection to Book of Revelation and the End Times.

‘”The front page of Tuesday (July 14, 2009) morning’s New York Times had a stunning headline: “Iraq Suffers as the Euphrates River Dwindles.”

The drying up of this historic river in the land of ancient Babylon is so stunning, that even the Times had to note that Bible prophecy says this will happen in the “last days” of history, in the lead up to the apocalyptic battle of Armageddon described in the Book of Revelation.

Excerpts from the Times story: “Throughout the marshes, the reed gatherers, standing on land they once floated over, cry out to visitors in a passing boat. ‘Maaku mai!’ they shout, holding up their rusty sickles. ‘There is no water!’ The Euphrates is drying up. Strangled by the water policies of Iraq’s neighbors, Turkey and Syria; a two-year drought; and years of misuse by Iraq and its farmers, the river is significantly smaller than it was just a few years ago. Some officials worry that it could soon be half of what it is now. The shrinking of the Euphrates, a river so crucial to the birth of civilization that the Book of Revelation prophesied its drying up as a sign of the end times, has decimated farms along its banks, has left fishermen impoverished and has depleted riverside towns as farmers flee to the cities looking for work.”’

Do you know how long it will be before the prophesy of Revelation 16:12 is fulfilled? The answer is astonishing!

Eight years after the first ever attack on America from a terrorist country, do we really know the truth about Islam?

Because of our countries general lack of Christian discipline now, I have stopped listening to the fundamentalist government talking heads. This leaves me with an open mind to seek the truth and research the topics I write about. My research on the topic of Islam lead me to find Joel Rosenberg.

Let’s face the facts and live in the now. It’s time to get strong again and be prepared for the storm ahead. It’s time to WAKE UP AMERICA… stop listening to the lies that the talking heads are spewing.

This short video is the trailer to the groundbreaking documentary film webcast on “Radical Islam and the Church’s response” that Mr. Rosenberg has coming out on September 11, 2009 titled: Inside The Revolution.

Do you know the Truth About Islam?

I haven’t been keeping up with the events going on in the East, but after reading this post I had to share it.

This post comes from Joel Rosenberg’s Epicenter blog on June 19th…

“‘President Obama says he refuses to “meddle” in Iran. Why not? He is clearly “meddling” in Israel, pressuring the Jewish people not to defend themselves from a new Hitler rising in the East. He is clearly “meddling” by pressuring Israelis not to continue developing and expanding their own neighbors in Jerusalem, their capital city? He is happy to “meddle” in pressuring the Israelis to divide Jerusalem, give away the West Bank and allow Islamic Radicals to establish a sovereign state in “Palestine.” Remind me why, then, President Obama is willing to “meddle” in the affairs of a truly democratic country such as Israel, and refuses to speak out with moral courage and clarity with regards to a tyrannical dictatorship in Iran beating, arresting, and killing innocent civilians.”‘

Is President Obama blind to this?

Wow…  just saw this video and you can hear the fear in these folks voices! The American Politicians just don’t get it, which is unfortunate for us here in the USA.

Theologian William Barclay comments in the Daily Study Bible that “antichrist is not so much a person as a principle, the principle which is actively opposed to God and which may well be thought of as incarnating itself in those in every generation who have seemed to be blatant opponents of God.”

I’ve been researching this topic for some time and have not been able to complete my understanding of what the Anti-Christ is yet.  However, in 2 John 1:6-8 we are reminded of what the meaning of the bible’s message is once again!

Are you familiar with anymore Bible verses that depict the Antichrist beside those listed below, please let us know here.

I say this because many deceivers have gone out into the world. They deny that Jesus Christ came* in a real body. Such a person is a deceiver and an antichrist.
2 John 1:7(NLT)

Dear children, the last hour is here. You have heard that the Antichrist is coming, and already many such antichrists have appeared. From this we know that the last hour has come.
1 John 2:18(NLT)

And who is a liar? Anyone who says that Jesus is not the Christ.* Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist.*
1 John 2:22(NLT)

But if someone claims to be a prophet and does not acknowledge the truth about Jesus, that person is not from God. Such a person has the spirit of the Antichrist, which you heard is coming into the world and indeed is already here.
1 John 4:3(NLT)

Do you think the Anti-Christ has arrived?

UPDATE:(August 2, 2009) The following information comes from Joel Rosenberg’s “Epicenter: blog“. Are you tuned in?

‘”As I describe in my non-fiction book, Epicenter, Bible prophecies in the Old and New Testaments indicate that in the End Times, a Third Temple will be built on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, the site where the First and Second Temples once stood. Skeptics and cynics have long dismissed such prophecies. Military officials, moreover, have long argued that a Jewish effort to build a new temple could unleash the fury of 1.3 billion Muslims and trigger an apocalyptic war in the epicenter.

But a new poll in Israel finds a stunning 64% percent of Israelis — including 47% of secular Israelis — want to see the Third Temple built.

The Hebrew Prophet Isaiah writes, “It will come about in the last days that the mountain of the house of the Lord will be established as the chief of mountains” and that “the nations will stream to it.” (Isaiah 2:2)

In Daniel 9:26-27, we read: “The Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come [the Anti-Christ] will destroy the city [Jerusalem] and the sanctuary [the Second Temple]….Even to the end [of days] there will be war; desolation’s are determined. And he [the Anti-Christ] will make a firm covenant with the many for seven years, but in the middle of that week, he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering [in a rebuilt End of Days Temple] and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate.”

The Book of Revelation also confirms that a fully functional and operational Temple will be in place when the Tribulation begins (see Revelation 11).

Jewish groups in Israel are already producing architectural plans to build the Third Temple, and making other preparations as well. “‘

Based on this information, I am astonished that the American Politicians are continuing to follow the path that will eventually help to destroy us and the rest of the entire planet. Why are they not listening to the Word of God? What are they listening to?…
