With Iran screaming towards a nuclear bomb and promising to give it to all arab nations (including terrorist groups they fund) and with Russia's support, are we just heading towards another war, or is this what Ezekial prophesised about in chapter 38-39, leading us into the return of Christ?

Once Russia gets in a war in league with Arab nations be it Iran or any others and they invade Israel then the Ezekiel prophecy will be fulfilled. Yes we are in the end times. Which means several things. One the world is going to get worse. Two God promised to pour out His Spirit in the end times (Joel and Acts 2) So even though we are screaming towards the end Jesus still has a work to do in bringing souls in for the harvest. Third since it is the end times Jesus is coming soon. So look up my brothers and sisters in Christ for our salvation draws near.

The war is in Heaven. not earth. There is a battle on earth.
Yes. Many centuries ago, this could even go before creation, Satan fell from heaven because of his sin. It's recorded in Isaiah 14:12-14; Ezekiel 28:14-16. And since then, he has been the prince of the power of the air, Ephesians 2:2. That's why we wrestle against spirit, demonic witness in high places. The demons, one third of the angels that fell, Revelation 12:7, are filling the heavens.
Do you know that when Daniel prayed in chapter 10 of the book of Daniel, the prayers didn't get through for 21 days because the evil spirits stopped it? Well, there is War in Heaven in Revelation 12, verse 7. But these are the angelic beings. The good ones against the fallen ones, the demonic spirits controlling the heaven.
And you know why the war is occurring? They're clearing the way in Revelation 12, verses 7:2-12, because Jesus Christ is about to appear and there can be no hindrances. The heavens will be cleared and purified and Christ will come straight through as he sets his foot upon the Mount of Olives in almost the twinkling of an eye. So we won't have to fight. There’s no need for it.

Yes, the end of the old system is upon us, as Jesus is examining the Christians now for judgment, 1Peter4:17, Rev.2:5.
Specific wars, do not indicate the return of Christ, as Jesus said 'NO one would know the day and the hour, except the Father;' Matthew 24:36. But wars are part of the conditions mankind will be experiencing prior to his SIGN; Matthew 24:30.
The nation of Israel, is not the Israel that God is speaking about in Ezekiel 38,39. Compare Romans 11:7-26.

the end of times has been fortold by every major civilization since the begining of mankind. In a few occations these civilization's have witnessed the end times. Their societies through, natural disaster, or war have seen the end of life as they knew it. This in the natural progression and digression of our species. We feel that since there was a begining than therefor there must be an end. Truth is, there is no true end. Not until all of life is snuffed out of existence. This is not likely to happen in in the even of thermonuclear war. There have been two great extinctions on earth that didn't involve human obviously, but regarless, life continued, and evolved. It will continue to no matter what humans do.
P.S. The bible is full of contradictions and lies, don't believe a word of it. Sleep soundly and stop thinking about it.

In regards to human life? Maybe, we'll find out. In biblical sense? No. Your myths are much like the rest. Armeggedon, the rapture, etc. is a tale told throughout human history.
Read about the myths of the Mayans. Their history and "end times" have actually had proof of actual results over the last 10,000 years. 2012 is a year you might want to research.

The idiots that answered no or their other foolish remarks will be astonished when everything falls into place just like God's word says it will. Yes, all the signs are there, wake up people and accept Jesus into your heart before it's too late.

It may seem that way. Really, you could think of any written word as an instruction manual. Prophecy smophesy, follow what is written and look like your a prophet.
I can make ice.... just give me till winter....... I'm a prophet.

Who cares? We're all going to die at some point anyway. Does it really make a difference as to whether we die in our sleep or during some apocalyptic Biblical purge?
