So what?? They didnt even have very good reasons to think the old SU was Magog, as they were at war with Iran. At the time they hadnt aligned themselfs with any of the countries fortold, but today they most certainly have. The only country left out now is Turkey, and it wont be long now before the EU totaly rejects them, and they will have no choice but to join the other side.

Quote:

Matt 24:36

But of that day and hour knoweth no one, not even the angels of heaven, neither the Son, but the Father only.

1 Thessalonians 5


1Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, 2for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. 5You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. 6So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be alert and self-controlled.

You are being you normal ignorant self. The good Reverend John Jessop should not be your only provider of source material to participate in the debates on this board. Also, you have proven yourself only capable of one-dimensional thinking. I believe you are probably a good person - just a bit out of your league here.

When are the four horsemen and giant locust going to come and fuck with us? Will it be after you are sucked up to heaven via the rapture (you know, when you will be laughing at us all)?

Yeah but she lives in Beverly Hills and you don't

Location is everything.

Why the American antipathy towards older properties? Most Europeans prefer them because they have more character.

Which countries do you feel Russia is aligned with now?

Just goes to show that the Bible sometimes appears to contradict itself and the meaning isn't always clear.

It depends on who you talk to. From my point of view it will be before the tribulation officialy starts. I wont be laughing at you though, I'll be praying that you understand what has happened and you will be one of the millions who then turn to Christ, and receive eternal life through him.

The word magog just means land furthest north. Find a globe and run a striaght line from the north pole to Israel, and the city furthest to the north is Moscow.

Nearly every ME country. They have said that a attack on Iran (persia) would be a attack on them. They are building military bases in Syria, they are holding sumits for Palistine, making nuclear energy deals with Eygpt, ect ect.

What contradiction? Your quote said "no man will know the day nor hour" and he was 100% right, but that doesnt mean those who study scripture cant know the season, even the generation. People have been predicting the end since the begining, but at no time have we had what we have now, biblicaly. Not even close.

Really? You see no contradictions in the Bible at all?

As for the prediction of the end being near, I have heard all my life that "things have never been as bad as they are now."

Personally, I think this is just an attempt to control people through fear. Which is something priests and politicians have been perfecting for a very long time.

Most "contradictions" Ive seen claimed in the bible can be explained through knowing history, or understanding the difference in the meaning of words from the original language, or just plain reading the whole thing in context.

Well Im not just talking about "bad things" Not all signs of the end are bad times, especialy where we stand right now.

Maybe, but it doesnt change the fact that these prophecies are coming to pass.

When did Russia say this? Russia has supported sanctions against Iran at the UN. Many countries oppose an invasion of Iran.





They are building military bases in Syria,

Any evidence for that? BTW America is building military bases in Iraq and several former Soviet Union states


they are holding sumits for Palistine, making nuclear energy deals with Eygpt, ect ect.

The US and just about everybody is holding summits for Palestine!

Jesus was a Palestinian - Palestinians are people too!

Really?

What do you think Christians were saying in the 1930's and during WW2?

It appeared that Hitler was the Beast creating that single govt in Europe and committing genocide on the Jews. Wars and rumours of wars existed throughout the entire world,

Had we been alive then I'm sure we would have construed events to support prophecies about last days.
