The big tent, in preparation for our Barbeque and Baptism on July 6th, is going up Saturday at 1:30 pm. We can use some help, men. If you can help us, meet  in back of the church at 1:30 pm. Thank you in advance. 

Prophetic Watch!

We’ll start with the prophetic watch because of the developing events with Israel’s preemptive attack on Iran. We knew this would happen sooner or later, and here it is! This attack sets the stage for the eventual fulfilment of Ezekiel 38-39. Prayerfully, Israel’s attack will cause a regime change in Iran that will rid the nation of its demonic oppression over the Iranian people as well as preventing them from acquiring nuclear weapons. Eventually what’s left of Iran (ancient Persia), will be allied with Turkey, and other nations under the leadership of Russia in a major attack on Israel. According to Ezekiel 38, that confederacy of nations will be wiped out in the mountains of Israel because of the direct intervention of God Almighty. In the meantime it will be interesting to watch how Russia responds to Israel’s attack. They are bogged down with their war with Ukraine currently, but they are bound by a treaty with Iran to come to their assistance if attacked. Will Russian respond now or later? If they respond now, it’s WW III! If they respond later then perhaps WW III can be delayed. Whether now or later Ezekiel 38-39 is on the table. Incidentally, prophetic scholars believe that the Ezekiel 38-39 campaign, called the Gog-Magog battle.  lights the fuse for Armageddon. The Ezekiel battle takes place early in the tribulation period, or just before; Armageddon takes place at the end of the tribulation. 

Stay tuned, get close to Jesus, share Him with your family and friends because we are living in prophetic times. Jesus could come soon! 

Maranatha!
