Prophecy
watchers have had their eye on the Middle-East for many years, watching for
signs of the imminent occurrence of Bible prophecy related events connected to
the end times. Some of those watchers realize that a Mid-East centered
war—WW3—that could easily see the involvement of major superpowers, may fit the
bill for Seal 2.
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second
beast say, Come and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was
given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they
should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. Rev 6:3,4
This
coming WW3 has been described like this.
The
Third World War is supposed to be triggered by war between Judaism and Islam
and will eventually spread to the whole world. Listen to what Albert Pike said
about WWIII:
The
third World War must be formented by taking advantage of the differences caused
by the ‘agentur’ of the ‘Illuminati’ between the political Zionists and the
leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam
and political Zionism mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations,
once more divided on the issue will be constrained to fight to the point of
complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…Then everywhere,
the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of
revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the
multitude, disillusioned with Christianity…will receive the true light through
the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally
out in public view. The Coming Epiphany

So
that is the plan; the question is when will WW3 occur? Well, let’s consider a
few pieces of current information.
Does Israel feel
compelled to launch a strike at Iran’s nuclear sites? And if so, when?
Israel
may have to go it alone against a nuclear-armed Iran, said senior minister
Tzachi Hanegbi on Tuesday, Feb. 2, because, je said, he can’t see the US taking
such a military initiative. The minister spoke the day before an Israel foreign
affairs and security cabinet session to discuss the Iranian nuclear issue for
the first time since the Biden administration took office.
IRAN MAY BE “WEEKS”
AWAY FROM DEVELOPING NUCLEAR BOMB’, SEC OF STATE BLINKEN ADMITS
In an
interview with NBC News on Sunday, also warned that Iran could be months or
even only “a matter of weeks” from developing a nuclear bomb if it further
violates restrictions stemming from the 2015 accord.

So
how does it sound to you; is the Seal 2 WW3 imminent? I do not know, the
Mid-East war drums have been beating for many years. Whether or not it will be
gin in the near future, I do not know.
But
let’s consider a few more pieces of information. For one it is possible that
Seal 1 has already been opened.
The
Rider on the White Horse was Given a Crown! Has Seal 1 Been Opened?
And
if Seal 1 has been opened, then we are in the first half of the last 7 years of
Revelation and Seal 2 is next. Many bristle at this assertion and say this
cannot be true because the rapture must come first. So why can I say that we
may be in the last 7 years? I can say this because the rapture will not occur
until after Seal 6 is opened, which is clearly taught in scripture.
Unfortunately
many Christians believe that the rapture is imminent. But God through the
Apostle Paul told us that the rapture will not be imminent until after certain
things occur, as detailed in the passage below.
1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by
spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at
hand.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not
come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed,
the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called
God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God,
shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thes 2
God makes it very clear in this passage that
our gathering together unto Him—the rapture—at the Day of Christ/Day of the
Lord, will not occur until after the falling away, the man of sin is revealed,
and after he sits in the temple of God and proclaims himself to be God.
Therefore since those things have not happened yet, the rapture is not
imminent!
More precisely, the Day of Christ/Day of the
Lord rapture does not occur until after the moon is turned to blood.
The sun shall be turned into
darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord
come: Acts
2:20
And we know the sun is turned into darkness
and the moon into blood after Seal 6 is opened.
And I beheld when he had opened
the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black
as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; Rev 6:12
Putting this all together means that the
rapture is not imminent and that Christians will see Seals 1-6 opened, after
which the rapture occurs. And if Seal 1 has been opened, then what is imminent
is Seal 2.
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted
worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before
the Son of man. Luke 21:36
