world war 3?

[David_james]

I've been seeing sites that have been talking about world war 3 starting soon, are these accurate? Also will the end of the war be the end of the world? Is that when Jesus will return?

Hi David. It's good to see you.

Some people call the war against terrorism as being WW3. Then again many did the same with the Cold War. There are others that are referring to the nations lining up with Iran and Iran's pushing against the U.S. that will end up being a world war. It is all speculation right now but something worth while watching. It does appear that the nations that are lining up with Iran are the same nations mentioned in the Bible as the last war the world will see. As to when the Lord will come again the Bible clearly tells us that no man knows of that time so we just need to remain in God's will and wait and watch.

oh yes I did know that noone knows when Jesus will return.

Hello Brother David,

There are many fascinating Bible studies about the end of this Age of Grace. It is absolutely true that no man will know the time, but there are many signs written about in the Holy Bible. Many Christians thought some of those signs were being fulfilled by Hitler in World War II, but they didn't take into account the signs that dealt with Israel. Some of the signs that deal with Israel have now taken place. Most people who study Bible prophecy know that it's impossible to set a date or a time, but we can watch the signs that are listed in the Holy Bible. Again, many Christians think that the time might be getting short for this Age of Grace.

Then one gets into the many disagreements among Christians about the sequence of events at the end of this Age of Grace. These are things that Christians should not argue about because they have nothing to do with Salvation. It's really sufficient to know that JESUS might return soon, and I think that HE will. But, I don't argue with other Christians about that.

Studies of Bible Prophecy reveal some incredibly beautiful things for Christians and some horrible things for the devil and the devil's hosts. I would love to be alive when JESUS comes to Rapture His CHURCH. BUT, if I'm not, it will be absent from the body and present with the LORD. Eternity for Christians is beautiful, and one of the things that we can look forward to is Glorified bodies at God's appointed time. We can also know beyond any doubt at all that JESUS CHRIST will completely defeat evil at HIS second coming. Our life here is short, but a Christian's inheritance is for eternity as a citizen of Heaven. This is what's so beautiful. See the next post.

Love In Christ,
Tom

John 1:1-4 NASB  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.

KEEP LOOKING UP!

THE RAPTURE WILL BE A REALITY!

1 Thessalonians 4:13 NASB  But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope.

1 Thessalonians 4:14 NASB  For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 4:15 NASB  For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.

1 Thessalonians 4:16 NASB  For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

1 Thessalonians 4:17 NASB  Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 4:18 NASB  Therefore comfort one another with these words.

1 Corinthians 15:50 NASB  Now I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

1 Corinthians 15:51 NASB  Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,

1 Corinthians 15:52 NASB  in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

1 Corinthians 15:53 NASB  For this perishable must put on the imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality.

1 Corinthians 15:54 NASB  But when this perishable will have put on the imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written, "DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP in victory.

1 Corinthians 15:55 NASB  "O DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR VICTORY? O  DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR STING?"

1 Corinthians 15:56 NASB  The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law;

1 Corinthians 15:57 NASB  but thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

1 Corinthians 15:58 NASB  Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.

Revelation 21:10 NASB  And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,

Revelation 21:11 NASB  having the glory of God. Her brilliance was like a very costly stone, as a stone of crystal-clear jasper.

Revelation 21:12 NASB  It had a great and high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names were written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel.

Revelation 21:13 NASB  There were three gates on the east and three gates on the north and three gates on the south and three gates on the west.

Revelation 21:18 NASB  The material of the wall was jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass.

Revelation 21:22 NASB  I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.

Revelation 21:23 NASB  And the city has no need of the sun or of the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God has illumined it, and its lamp is the Lamb.

Revelation 21:24 NASB  The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.

Revelation 21:25 NASB  In the daytime (for there will be no night there) its gates will never be closed;

Revelation 21:26 NASB  and they will bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it;

Revelation 21:27 NASB  and nothing unclean, and no one who practices abomination and lying, shall ever come into it, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.

[nChrist]

Revelation 22:1 NASB  Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb,

Revelation 22:2 NASB  in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

Revelation 22:3 NASB  There will no longer be any curse; and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve Him;

Revelation 22:4 NASB  they will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads.

Revelation 22:5 NASB  And there will no longer be any night; and they will not have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God will illumine them; and they will reign forever and ever.

Revelation 22:6 NASB  And he said to me, "These words are faithful and true"; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show to His bond-servants the things which must soon take place.

Revelation 22:7 NASB  "And behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who heeds the words of the prophecy of this book."

Revelation 22:8 NASB  I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things.

Hello David james,  I myself call WW3 Armageddon.  The reason why, is because the Bible says  it will aline all countries again Israel.

[airIam2worship]

Hi David I've missed you for a few days. I hace to say I agree with DW. and as we things going on now many nations are lining up against Israel, and that is also why America is being terrorized, we are Israel's biggest ally
