Iraq War III

The sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, to slay the third part of men. And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred million: and I heard the number of them (Revelation 9:13-16).

Since 2014, we have seen the beginnings of Iraq War III. The Islamic State (ISIS) controls parts of Syria and Iraq which destabilized the people in the region. The covenant will be confirmed on the 10th of Tishri, the Day of Atonement in a future year. Then a huge army will cross the Euphrates River (Iraq, Syria, Turkey). China has enough people for the army and needs the oil in the Middle East. The war will occur during the first half of the Tribulation.

You know, I don't mind trade wars when we're losing $58 billion a year. You want to know the truth. We're losing so much. We're losing  so much with Mexico and China. With China, we're losing $500 billion a year.

The eagle falls and the lion/bear/leopard rules. Revelation 13:2

A strange thing happened on the way to selecting the next president. The Democrats selected an establishment politician with socialist policies. The Republicans selected an anti-establishment businessman with populist policies. The November election is a choice of experience vs personality but the next president may answer two prophecy questions:
  • Which president brings us into the Tribulation?
  • Is there a pre, mid or post Tribulation Rapture?
Confirmation of the Covenant

He shall confirm the covenant with many for one "seven" [of years] (Daniel 9:26-27).

In 1937, the Peal Commission proposed to divide the British mandate between Israel and Palestine. Every plan since then included dividing the land. Daniel 7's Quartet (European Union, Russia, United Nations, United States) propose to take Judea and Samaria (West Bank of Jordan) from Israel and give it to Palestine. Both nations will share Jerusalem and the temple mount. See Covenant Articles.

I happen to think that moving toward a two-state solution, trying to provide for support for the aspirations of the Palestinian people is in the long-term best interest of Israel, as well as the region and, of course, the people themselves.
---- Hillary Clinton, Democratic nominee for president

Basically I support a two-state solution on Israel. But the Palestinian Authority has to recognize Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state.
---- Donald Trump, Republican nominee for president

Both candidates agree on the two-state solution but that leads to disaster. In August of 2005, America and the Quartet encouraged Israel to give up Gaza and four settlements in Samaria (West Bank). On the 9th of Av, a tropical depression formed, dissipated and later reformed. Hurricane Katrina made landfall in south Florida and then devastated the upper gulf coasts of Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi. Daniel says the Antichrist will confirm a peace treaty. The covenant divides Israel and causes the fall of the United States, the Tribulation and Armageddon.

I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat [in Jerusalem]. There I will enter into judgment against them concerning my inheritance, my people Israel, for they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land. (Joel 3:2 NIV).

Fair trade is a good objective. However, a trade war with China could progress into a conventional war and then escalate to a nuclear war. China vs the United States and India includes the three most populated countries in the world. A trade war would ignite the sixth trumpet that kills over 2.5 billion people.

The 2016 presidential election has been anything but ordinary. Expect the president's term in office to be an extraordinary fulfilment of prophecy. Carefully watch the presidential candidates' policies on the Middle East and China. The next six months may decide the last president before the Tribulation begins.

Each election cycle, we are told the election is the most important election. But the 2016 presidential election will be the most important election ever held, past or future. The winner could serve from January 2017 to 2021 and if reelected to 2025. Watch for signs for the confirmation of the covenant and Iraq War III to see the beginnings of the end.
