What do you think of the current middle east crisis and its relation to the Bible?

Question

I think that we are most likely to be the generation to witness the coming of Christ. I follow Bible Prophecy pretty closely and there are many many things unfolding.

I am also very worried for family members that may not be saved, but as always, although I will encourage them to follow Christ, in Gods hands and in Gods time for his will. Come Lord Jesus!

Answer 1

I believe that once we arrive at that point in Israel and Palestine negotiations wherein they can say “Peace and safety” we will have the “sudden destruction” (1 Th.5:2-3 below) which will occur at the Sixth Seal appearance of the Lord with power and majesty (Re.6:12-17).


1 Th.5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

1 Th.5:3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

Answer 2

Prophecy is a perfect fit, but is not prophecy until it is past and a fact.

Euphrates conflict is middle east?

Rev.9:1-5 [5 x 30 = 150 plus 2520 by Daniel is 2670 at Dan.12:12 [ 2x 1335 = 2670];
Rev.9:12-15 [ Angels 391 day years Rev.16:12-16; Euphrates Conflict continues];
KJV Bible 1611 + 391 = 2002 established [ 303 was 1914 WW1 42 months estab].
We are after Christ in the year 2006 and this is 2612 [of the 2670 above].
1335 Less 606 BCE = [ What nation rises 729 + 606 + 729 =] 2064, we are 2006 CE.

Answer 3

I don't think the current middle east crisis has anything at all to do with the bible.

I think people who believe in end times prophesy and accept war on the basis that the bible said it was gonna happen, so it's ok, are justifying evil.

The current middle east crisis is evidence that humans would rather kill, maim, and destroy than learn how to get along.

The people of Lebanon should demand that the terrorist minded people in their country stop participating in violent behavior. The government may be afraid or controlled by the terrorists. It's up to the citizens to put an end to it. Both sides need to realize that bombs don't solve problems. Bombs kill people and cause more anger and resentment.

Answer 4

I find it to be scary and interesting at the same time. I'm not scared about me, I'm scared for my family members who don't believe in God or Jesus. I'm afraid that most of my family members won't ever enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

Events that are unfolding in the middle east is talked about in the Bible. Who knows, perhaps the second coming of Jesus Christ will be seen in our life time. That would be nice!

What about you? Do you think of the current middle east crisis and it's relation to the Bible?

Answer 5

I think the current crisis is very, very unfortunate. I feel sad that so many people, especially civilians have died.

I am disgusted with the behavior of everyone involved, except those who are trying to make peace and those who are trying to provide humanitarian aid.

What does the crisis have to do with the Bible? In fact nothing. In the minds of right wing Christian extremists it is proof that the end of the world is near. Their predictions are largely based on Revelations, the last book of the Christian Bible. I encourage anyone to read Revelations for themselves before they believe what televangelists are shouting. I’ve read it at least three times and, from doing so concluded that anyone who says they know what it predicts is lying or crazy. You can read it online at

Answer 6

No one is righteous. All have sin and fall short the Glory of God.

Just a note, Arab are also the Children of Abraham, the half brother of Jews.

Most of them are either the children of Esu or Ismail.

I see that the peace will not be better, but there will be a time where someone powerful managed to get them to make peace.

And for the next 3.5 yrs, there will be a total peace, but follow by another 3.5 yrs of suffering.

That is the end time prophecy.

Bless you
