The End of Time.

Well, a few days ago I asked if anyone could elaborate on Biblical prophecy regarding Lebanon and the situation taking place now. Searching for it last night I found both an exciting and startling answer. Startling because it reveals how close we really are to the end of time. You may be familiar with Christ's end time prophecies. They are found in Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Matthew in the 24th chapter, Mark 13, and Luke 21. Now it is really becoming clear how Lebanon and this situation point to the glorious return of Jesus Christ, and the rapture of the church.

The website I found: really sheds much light on the issue. And all the thoughts on this website were written before 2005, when the author died. Sure lots of people are now writing about Lebanon since the war started, but this guy was interpreting Scripture about Lebanon many years before this war.

He has cited Scripture on his website that proves the Antichrist will come from a new country, formed out of Lebanon due to a crises there. The Antichrist will then move to the east and south and conquer those countries, and eventually gain control of many more. Most of the evidence for what this website says is found in Daniels visions, and if you will go there for yourself you will see the Scriptual authenticity of what is said.

Pastor Ronnie Libby "The New England Prophet" just this last July said he believed the Lord would come within the next year. An Assemblies of God overseer said he thought it would be within the next 6 months or so. Maybe you just think I'm rambling, but to end this post I will cite several scriptures that support what is said.

Daniel 8:3-14, 17, 19-26
3 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

4 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.

5 And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.

6 And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.

7 And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.

8 Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.

9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.

10 And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.

11 Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.

13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed....

17 So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision....

19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.

20 The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.

21 And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.

22 Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.

23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. (KJV)

Romans 5:8 "God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

Romans 10:9,10 "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto Salvation."
