On Mar. 27, 2026, Harbingers Daily posted an article by Daniel Cohen (award-winning anchor, the Israel Correspondent and News Director of the Real Life Network) that said in part:

• If Barack Obama and Joe Biden taught us anything, it’s that the art of the dealisn’t about making any
• It’s about knowing when no deal—especially with Iran—is the best deal.
• If the Trump administration leaves a wounded beast alive in Tehran, whatever’s left of that regime will rebuild its terror infrastructure and nuclear program.
• It’s only a matter of time.
• President Trump, Prime Minister Netanyahu, finish the job!
• Don’t leave a shred of this regime that ordered the mass killing of 40,000 of their own people who were demonstrating in the streets for freedom.
• Ecclesiastes (a book in the Bible) says that there’s a time for all things.
• There’s a time for peace and a time for war (Eccl. 3:8).
• Iran has been a clear and present danger for 47 years.
• We can’t neutralize evil by signing an agreement.
• They don’t care.
• It’s not worth the paper that it’s signed on or the ink that’s used.
• We neutralize evil by making sure that the evildoers know—without a shadow of a doubt—that the cost of aggression is total and immediate.
• There’s no worth in making a deal that Iran will never honor.

Simply put: Cohen believes the best deal is no deal.

Here are some current events that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near:

One, on Mar. 26, 2026, the Prophecy News Watch (PNW) staff wrote:

• The world is teetering on the edge of a crisis that could reshape life as we know it.
• The Strait of Hormuz — a narrow waterway carrying nearly a fifth of the globe’s daily oil supply — is all but shut down amid the escalating conflict in Iran.
• The result: fuel prices soaring above $100 a barrel and governments quietly dusting off emergency playbooks that could force citizens to ration energy, limit travel, and accept curbs on freedoms previously taken for granted.
• The economic repercussions could be staggering.
• With fuel costs skyrocketing, every sector that depends on transport — from food to consumer goods — faces price shocks.
• Small businesses may shutter.
• Supply chains could buckle.
• Consumers may see shelves emptying not just of luxury items, but essentials like fresh produce, heating fuel, and medications.
• The specter of recession looms, with the potential for a global economic contraction driven by the very energy that powers daily life.

(My opinion: Instead of hurting America – and the world – by rationing energy, a better deal might be to stop the ceasefires, go to war, and permanently open the Strait of Hormuz.)

(More: On Mar. 26, 2025, in a different article, the PNW staff expressed the opinion that the next generation of Iranians might be even more radical than others. They added that the younger generation of Iranians was born into the revolution. Schooled in it. Sermoned by it. Militarized by it. Their political imagination was formed entirely inside the architecture of radical Shiite ideology. For them, the regime is not a detour from normalcy; it is normalcy. Endless confrontation is not a failure of the system. It is the system.)

(My opinion: This endless confrontation is demonic, and ceasefires with demonic forces are useless.)

Two, on Mar. 28, 2026, Gatestone Institute published an article by Majid Rafizadeh titled, “Finish the Job: Leaving Iran’s Regime in Place Guarantees Endless Regional Instability.”

Rafizadeh is a Harvard-educated political scientist.

According to him, and I agree, Pres. Trump will be making a major mistake if he doesn’t “finish the job.”

Right now, one of Iran’s greatest needs is time to rebuild.

Iran would like to lay low, wait for Trump’s term to come to an end, and then resume its quest for long-range ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons.

Trump is now facing a big decision: the choice between finishing the job or leaving it for Israel and the world to face the same reality in the future.

Simply put once again: The best deal is no deal; finish the job.

U.S. troops have died, protestors have died, you have spent billions of dollars, fuel and food prices are rising, Iran keeps attacking Israel and the Arab nations. Get it done, Mr. President, and stop dragging your feet.

Three, concerning whether the war should continue or not: on Mar. 31, 2026, it was reported that the Arab nations are:

• Privately pressing Pres. Trump to keep prosecuting the war against Iran.
• Saying that a month of U.S.-led strikes has not weakened Tehran enough.
• Saying that any eventual deal should force major changes in Iran’s behavior, including curbing its nuclear and missile programs and stopping support for terrorist proxy groups.

It was also reported that Pres. Trump is weighing a push for Arab countries to help pay for the U.S.-Israeli war against the Iranian regime.

And Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel is in the process of forming alliances with Arab countries that are talking about fighting alongside us.

Netanyahu said:

• In the past, I had secret conversations with Arab leaders.
• I told them that once Iran is able, it will conquer you and bring down your kingdoms.
• Back then, they didn’t really internalize this—today, they understand.

Four, concerning whether the war should continue or not: in an address to the nation on Apr. 1, 2026, Pres. Trump said:

• The war in Iran is nearing completion.
• Our key military objectives are close to being met, including dismantling Iran’s missile production, destroying its naval capabilities, and curbing its regional proxies.
• We’re going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks; we’re going to bring them back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.
• If, during this period of time, no deal is made, we have our eyes on key targets.
• If there is no deal, we are going to hit each and every one of their electric generating plants very hard, and probably simultaneously.

Five, concerning illegal immigration and corruption in Congress: on Mar. 27, 2026, it was reported that:

• S. Vice-Pres. Vance said Ilhan Omar definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America.
• The White House is going to go after Omar for these crimes.
• She came illegally and hates America.
• Omar said it is the worst country in the world.
• She should go home to Somalia.
• Ilhan Omar said she is only in Congress for Somalia.
• Let’s make her happy and send her home.
• As for money, she likely has plenty of it, having made millions from somewhere.

Six, on Palm Sunday, Mar. 29, 2026, Pres. Trump released a letter that he received from Franklin Graham on Oct. 15, 2025.

Graham’s letter to Trump was in response to Trump’s saying things like this:

• I want to try to get to heaven if possible.
• I hear I’m not doing well.
• I hear I’m really at the bottom of the totem pole.
• But if I can get to heaven, this will be one of the reasons (my good deeds).

Among other things, Graham told Trump:

• The only One who can save us from Hell is Jesus Christ.
• You can’t save yourself; I can’t save myself.
• Good works, prominence, success–none of these get us to Heaven.
• The only way to Heaven is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ.
• Graham reminded Trump–and, by extension, all readers–that salvation is not a matter of balancing one’s good deeds against one’s sins.
• The Bible makes it clear that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23).
• Our works, no matter how impressive or well-intentioned, cannot erase our failures, mistakes, or sins.
• The path to eternal life is a free gift, accessible only through faith in Jesus Christ.
• God requires us to turn from our sins and, by faith, believe in our heart that Jesus came to earth, died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and God raised Him to life on the third day.
• If you accept that by faith and invite Him to come into your heart, you ARE heaven-bound, I promise you.

(My comment: That is God’s promise to all of us, and nothing can change it.)

More:

At the recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Franklin Graham said:

• He (Trump) stepped up to protect Israel and the Jewish people from what I believe was the possibility of a nuclear annihilation by the radical Islamic regime.

According to the article in Worthy News, “Evangelicals are a core part of Trump’s political base, and many view support for Israel as a Biblical mission tied to beliefs about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.”

More:

On Mar. 30, 2026, White House Press Sec. Karoline Levitt was asked to respond to Pope Leo’s statement that God doesn’t listen to the prayers of those who wage war.

Levitt said:

• Our nation was a nation founded 250 years ago, almost, on Judeo-Christian values.
• And we’ve seen presidents, we’ve seen the leaders of the Department of War, and we’ve seen our troops go to prayer during the most turbulent times in our nation’s history.
• I don’t think there’s anything wrong with our military leaders or with the president calling on the American people to pray for our service members and those who are serving our country overseas.
• In fact, I think it’s a very noble thing to do.

Here are some war reports as they come in from the U.S. and Israel:

The U.S. calls its attacks Operation Epic Fury.

Israel calls its attacks Operation Roaring Lion.

Thurs. Day 27 (Mar. 26, 2026)

• Trump said the Iranian negotiators better get serious soon, before it is too late, because once that happens, there is no turning back, and it won’t be pretty!
• Trump said he is extending his temporary halt on U.S. strikes targeting Iran’s energy infrastructure until 8 p.m. on Apr. 6, 2025 (10 days), signaling a continued window for diplomacy amid an escalating conflict, following a direct request from the Iranian government. (My comment: It seems to me that Trump needs to get serious before it is too late.)
• Iran said exchanges of messages through intermediaries “are not negotiations, and its policy remains one of “resistance,” highlighting a widening gap with the U.S. push for diplomacy.
• Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the launch of a campaign to recruit boys as young as 12 to join their forces, manning checkpoints and patrols, repressing Iranian citizens.
• Israel’s Prime Min. Netanyahu said Israel is now actively focused on dismantling Hezbollah, that Israeli forces have already removed much of Hezbollah’s rocket threat and neutralized the group’s planned ground invasion capabilities. He said these operations have effectively created a security buffer beyond Israel’s northern border with Lebanon.

Fri. Day 28 (Mar. 27, 2026)

• Iran claims that it has mobilized more than one million fighters in preparation for a US ground invasion to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
• Iran has begun reinforcing Karg Island by laying traps such as anti-personnel and anti-armor mines along likely landing zones.
• According to his advisors, Pres. Trump said he is prepared to pull the trigger on a full-scale invasion if Tehran continues to rebuff his diplomatic overtures.
• Verified reporting indicates that Iranian missile and drone strikes have indeed hit critical infrastructure across Bahrain, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia, with fires, injuries, and emergency responses underway.
• Iran fired six ballistic missiles and 29 drones at Saudi Arabia’s Prince Sultan air base that wounded at least 15 troops.
• Israel struck Iran’s Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant(for the third time of war).
• An Iranian strike wounded 10-12 US troops at Prince Sultan Air Basein Saudi Arabia and caused significant damage to US KC-135 Stratotanker refueling aircraft that are essential for sustaining long-range US and Israeli air operations. Three E-3 Sentry AWACS, one of the most important command-and-control platforms in the US inventory, were also significantly damaged.

Sat. Day 29 (Mar. 28, 2026)

• Massive Israeli airstrikes are underway across Iran. Reports indicate repeated detonations (4–6 per location), with visible sky illumination and shockwaves.
• The government of South Africa imposed fuel rationing in certain local markets. Citizens are being told they can only purchase 30 liters (7.93 gallons) of fuel.  Other areas are limiting amounts to 80 liters. Prices for gasoline are going up thirty percent (30%), and prices for Diesel fuel are going up fifty percent (50%). The government is attributing the rationing to panic buying by Farmers and distribution system glitches in some areas. They say the nation has adequate fuel stocks until at least mid-April.
• More than 3,500 U.S. troops have arrived in the Middle East.
• Yemen’s Houthis officially entered the widening Middle East war by launching several ballistic missiles at Israel

Sun. Day 30 (Mar. 29, 2026)

• Sources in the Pentagon said the US is preparing for weeks of Ground Operations in Iran.
• The Israeli Air Force struck more than 250 targets in Iran and Lebanon.
• Trump is weighing a potential military operation to extract nearly 1,000 pounds of enriched uranium from Iran, a complex and dangerous mission that could place U.S. forces inside the country for days, but no final decision has been made.
• Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu said he has instructed the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to expand its security buffer inside southern Lebanon. He said the move is designed to “finally thwart the threat of invasion” and push anti-tank missile fire farther from Israeli communities that have endured sustained attacks in recent weeks.
• Israel’s Defense Min. said the 600,000-plus residents of Southern Lebanon who were evacuated northward in recent weeks would be barred from returning south of the Litani until the safety and security of northern Israeli residents is ensured.
• Trump claimed Iran is agreeing with most of a US-proposed 15-point planfor ending the war. He added that you never know with Iran because we negotiate with them, and then we always have to blow them up.
• The IAEA confirmed that Iran’s heavy water weapons-grade plutonium production plant at Khondab, near Arak, has sustained severe damage and is no longer operational.

Mon. Day 31 (Mar. 30, 2026)

• Trump threatened widespread destruction of Iran’s energy resources and other vital infrastructure, including desalination plants, if a deal to end the war is not reached “shortly.”
• Trump said, “If for any reason a deal is not shortly reached… and if the Strait of Hormuz is not immediately open for business, we will… completely obliterate all of their electric generating plants, oil wells and Kharg Island.”
• Trump said the U.S. would “completely obliterate” Iran’s power plants, oil wells, and Kharg Island if the strait is not reopened and a deal is not reached by April 6 at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
• Thousands of U.S troops from the 82nd Airborne Division have begun arriving in the Middle East.

Tue. Day 32 (Mar. 31, 2026)

• Large explosions occurred when the U.S. dropped 2,000-pound bunker buster bombs in Isfahan, Iran.
• Fresh produce, like Broccoli, Tomatoes, and lettuce, has doubled — and in some cases TRIPLED — in price in the United Kingdom.
• Concerning the refusal of several nations to help the U.S. open the Strait of Hormuz: Pres. Trump said, “All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S.; we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself; the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore (France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, etc.), just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil!”
• Concerning NATO, U.S. Sec. of State Marco Rubio said, “If the alliance simply means the United States protecting Europe when they are attacked, and European powers refusing to come to America’s aid, then that’s not a very good arrangement, that’s a hard one to stay engaged in and say this is good for the United States… All of it’s going to have to be re-examined.”
• Iranian state television Press TV has claimed that Chechen military units – an area in Russia – announced their readiness to deploy to Iran to support Iranian armed forces in the event of a US ground invasion. (Note: as of now, Iran’s claim that Chechen troops are ready to join Iran is unconfirmed.)

Wed. Day 33 (Apr. 1, 2026)

• Iran’s largest steel company, the largest steel company in the Middle East, reported severe damage and said it appears that the company will be unable to return to production for a long time.

FYI: God does not send anyone to Hell (all of us are born with a sin nature and destined to go to Hell because we sin), but God has provided a way (Jesus) for everyone to go to Heaven (and He is the only way to get there; John 14:6).

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God, who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

On Mar. 16, 2026, Breanna Claussen (Founder, President, and Editor-in-Chief of Harbinger’s Daily) wrote the following:

• Elections have an enormous impact.
• During the last Presidential election, one of the main focuses of numerous Christian voters surrounded the nation of Israel.
• Pastors who sounded the alarm about the dangers of a possible Harris administration recognized that America’s friendship with Israel was not simply a “political issue,” it was a profoundly Biblical one.
• While vocal critics treat cooperation between the United States and Israel as not being “America first,” through Scripture we know that the exact opposite is true.
• Those who cling to the authority of God’s Word know that Israel’s survival is not in question—that it is a promise given by the Lord Himself.
• However, Scripture, in no uncertain terms, states that nations will be judged by their treatment of Israel (Genesis 12:3,  12:3, Joel 3:1-2, etc.).
• While blessing the Jewish State results in a nation being blessed, anti-Israel administrations in the White House place the United States at odds with God.
• Those are the stakes of each election, and they showcase why Christian involvement in “political issues,” especially concerning Israel, is so essential.

Here is a link to Claussen’s entire article:

America’s Friendship with Israel Is Not Simply a ‘Political Issue,’ It Is a Profoundly Biblical One – A CROOKED PATH

Here are some recent events that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near:

One, on Mar. 17, 2026, the Prophecy News Watch (PNW) staff wrote:

• According to a recent study conducted by researchers at the University of British Columbia, nearly one-third of Americans and Canadians believe the world will end within their lifetime.
• For many observers, that statistic may sound shocking.
• But for millions of Christians who have long studied biblical prophecy, the idea that people increasingly sense the world is moving toward some kind of final chapter may not be surprising at all.
• For centuries, Scripture has taught that history is not random.
• The Bible describes a clear beginning, a purposeful unfolding of events, and ultimately a conclusion in which God intervenes decisively in human history.
• Jesus Himself warned that before the end comes, the world would experience rising turmoil–wars, instability, moral confusion, and distress among nations.
• Whether people believe in the Bible or not, it is difficult to ignore how often modern headlines seem to echo those warnings.
• Yes, Scripture warns of difficult times ahead.
• It speaks of tribulation, global turmoil, and spiritual conflict.
• But it also promises something the world’s apocalyptic scenarios never do: redemption.
• The biblical story does not end with destruction.
• It ends with restoration, the return of Christ, and the renewal of creation through a new heavens and a new earth.
• Because when the world begins asking whether the end is near, the church should be ready with an answer–not one of fear, but one rooted in the promises of Scripture.
• The Bible does not call believers to panic about the future.
• It calls them to watch, to remain faithful, and to remember that the final chapter of history ultimately belongs to God.

Two, concerning the Battle of Gog of Magog: on Mar. 18, 2026, Worthy News posted a Wall Street Journal report that said:

• Russia is providing Iran with satellite intelligence and advanced drone technology to improve targeting of U.S. forces.
• Iran’s recent strikes mirror Russian battlefield tactics used in Ukraine, including coordinated drone swarms.
• The growing Russia-Iran partnership is strengthening Tehran’s military capabilities while advancing Moscow’s strategic interests.

This writer believes that this is profoundly Biblical.

In the words of Worthy News:

• The growing coordination between Russia and Iran in today’s geopolitical landscape carries an unmistakable prophetic echo for those who study Scripture.
• In Ezekiel 38, the prophet describes a last-days coalition led by “Gog, of the land of Magog,” widely interpreted by many scholars as a power from the far north—often associated with Russia—joined explicitly by Persia, which is modern-day Iran.
• What we are witnessing now is not the fulfillment itself, but a visible alignment that mirrors the very framework the Bible outlined thousands of years ago.
• Military cooperation, intelligence sharing, and strategic unity between these nations reflect the early formation of what could become a future prophetic alliance.
• Yet Scripture is clear: this confederation ultimately rises under God’s sovereign hand and is decisively defeated, revealing His glory to the nations.
• The present alignment should not produce fear, but awareness—reminding believers that history is moving according to a divine timeline, and that even the gathering of nations serves the greater purpose of God’s redemptive plan.

(More: On Mar. 24, 2026, it was reported that Ukraine drones have attacked and set on fire Russia’s largest oil shipping port. It ships approx. one million barrels of crude oil per day, and it handles approx. 300,000 barrels of diesel per day.)

Three, here is another report that this writer believes that this is profoundly Biblical because of the prophesied Battle of Gog of Magog:

On Mar. 25, 2026, Worthy News reported that:

• Israel has carried out a rare and far-reaching military strike on Iran’s Caspian Sea port of Bandar Anzali, targeting a logistics hub used by Russia and Iran to transport weapons.
• The strike—Israel’s first ever on the Caspian Sea — hit what officials describe as a critical supply route used to move ammunition, Shahed drones, and other military equipment between the two nations.
• The inland sea, beyond the operational reach of the U.S. Navy, has served as a strategic corridor connecting Russian and Iranian ports roughly 600 miles apart.
• Israeli forces reportedly struck dozens of targets at the port, including naval vessels, a command center, and shipyard facilities used to maintain military assets.
• Verified footage showed significant damage to Iran’s naval headquarters and destruction of multiple vessels, though the full extent remains unclear.
• Military analysts say the operation was designed not only to degrade Iran’s capabilities but also to disrupt a growing alliance between Moscow and Iran.

Four, concerning Israel being a great army at the end of the age: Iran has 92 million people (60 times the State of Israel), lots of oil and assets, and proxies in several countries, but Israel is stomping them.

(My opinion: It is true that America is helping Israel, but I believe that is part of the protection that God has promised to provide.)

Five, concerning Trump’s 20-Point Peace Plan and the reconstruction of Gaza: on Mar. 19, 2026, it was reported that:

• Mediators had agreed on a framework for the Strip’s reconstruction and a negotiated resolution of the Palestinian question.
• The proposal requires one clear choice: full decommissioning by Hamas and every armed group, with no exceptions and no carve-outs.
• Hamas was asked to provide its formal response to the plan within a week.
• A Hamas spokesperson said Hamas is waiting for the outcome of the joint U.S.-Israeli war with Iran before responding.

Six, concerning an increase in the frequency and intensity of natural disasters at the end of the age: on Mar. 23, 2026, the U.S. National Weather Service said it expected more than 200 daily high temperature records to be broken in the U.S.

They expect the high temperature threat to be replaced by severe thunderstorms on Mar. 26, 2026.

Seven, concerning a global economic collapse early in the Tribulation Period: the U.S. Treasury Dept. has declared that the U.S. government is insolvent. [Research has since found that this claim originated with a Fortune.com commentary (states at bottom of article) and spread from there. The reality is that Treasury reports have warned that the country’s fiscal trajectory is unsustainable, but they didn’t say the U.S. can’t pay its debts.]

According to a Treasury Dept. report:

• The government’s consolidated balance sheet position, excluding the SOSI (Social Security Insurance), deteriorated by nearly $2.07 trillion between FY 2024 and FY 2025, reaching a staggering negative $41.72 trillion.
• Total liabilities are now nearly eight times the value of reported assets.
• The largest drivers were a $2 trillion increase in federal debt and interest payable (now $30.33 trillion) and a $438.8 billion increase in federal employee and veteran benefits payable (now $15.47 trillion).

Eight, concerning the creation of super humans (gods; days of Noah and days of Lot) during the Tribulation period: on Mar. 24, 2026, Alex Newman wrote (in part):

What if Jeffrey Epstein’s darkest crimes weren’t the ones you’ve heard about—but the ones buried in “science”?

We did the research, and the truth is almost unbelievable.

• Ultimately, the goal appears to have been what Insiders refer to as “directed evolution” and “transhumanism.”
• It seems that Epstein was hoping to “improve” the human race, partly by seeding it with his own DNA.
• How much progress he made is not yet clear.
• But considering what is known already, it is essential that this agenda be understood — and stopped.
• World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab and billionaire Bill Gates — both of whom are closely linked to Epstein — have been promoting genetic engineering of human beings since at least 2018.
• And both of their organizations, working with Epstein, were at the forefront of promoting the idea.
• Schwab could barely contain his glee as he declared that genetic editing in the Fourth Industrial Revolution does “not just change what you are doing, it changes you.”

Here is a link to Newman’s article:

https://mail.yahoo.com/n/list/folders=1&listFilter=ALL_INBOX/messages/146286?.src=ym&reason=myc&listFilter=ALL_INBOX

Here are some war reports as they come in from the U.S. and Israel:

The U.S. calls its attacks Operation Epic Fury.

Israel calls its attacks Operation Roaring Lion.

Thur. Day 20 (Mar. 19, 2026)

• Iran’s attacks on the Gulf countriesare increasingly bringing unity among the Arab countries, as well as a tiptoe toward possible action against Iran. Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan said that Riyadh’s restraint could end. Saudi Arabia’s patience is “not unlimited.”
• Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Japan said they are prepared to help ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
• Shrapnel from an Iranian missile intercepted by the IDF struck Israel’s largest oil refinery in Haifa Bay, causing damage to the facility and triggering power outages in the surrounding area.
• The U. S. carried out its most extensive wave of strikes against Iran to date.
• Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu said, “I can tell you that Iran no longer has the ability to enrich uranium, and it no longer has the ability to produce ballistic missiles.”
• Israel attacked Syrian government infrastructure in southern Syria in response to attacks on Druze civilians.
• Since the start of the war against Iran, Israel has dropped around 12,000 bombs, including 3,600 within the Tehran region alone. In Lebanon, Israel has dropped 2,200 bombs on Hezbollahover the course of 1,000 sorties.

Fri. Day 21 (Mar. 20, 2026)

• Israel killed the spokesman for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
• Iran attacked an oil refinery in Kuwait. A fire broke out, but it was quickly brought under control.
• Saudi Arabia’s Defense Ministry announced at least 10 waves of drone attacks against the kingdom (at least 27 drones).
• The UAE said it intercepted Iranian missiles and drones targeting the Emirates.
• Iran is trying to force the Arabs to give up their neutrality, to turn against Israel and help Iran, if they want Iran to stop attacking them.
• Iran’s top military spokesman said “parks, recreational areas, and tourist destinations” worldwide won’t be safe for Iran’s enemies.
• 3,200 ships are trapped in the Persian Gulf, and the crews are running out of drinking water.
• Israeli officials warn that ending the war prematurely could trigger another conflict within months.
• Iran fired two (2) missiles toward the military bases on the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean (2,361 miles from Iran). One was intercepted. The other failed in-flight. It was not widely believed that Iran possessed missiles that could go that far, but this proves that they do.
• Last month, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that Iran only had ballistic missiles with the capacity to hit targets within a 2,000-km radius (approximately 1,200 miles), with the country’s state-run media quoting the diplomat as saying, “We are not developing long-range missiles … we have limited the range below 2,000 kilometers.” (Note: He lied, and many world leaders believed his lie.)

Sat. Day 22 (Mar. 21, 2026)

• Israel and the U.S. struck Iran’s Natanz nuclear enrichment complex. (Note: they struck Iran’s Bushehr nuclear facility several days ago.)
• Israel took a direct hit near its nuclear research center in Dimona from a powerful Iranian missile. About 80 people were injured (Note: Iran obviously has some military weapons that world leaders didn’t know they had. Put another way: World leaders have been underestimating the danger posed by Iran and the seriousness of the Iranian threat to Israel.)
• Trump warned that if Iran does not fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours (without threats), the United States will take direct action against Iran’s power plants, beginning with the largest facilities. (Note: It will be lights out in Iran.)
• Iran warned that any U.S. attack on its infrastructure would trigger sweeping retaliation across the region, including strikes on energy and desalination facilities vital to Gulf nations.
• Israel said the operationagainst Hezbollah in Lebanon has only begun.

Sun. Day 23 (Mar. 22, 2026)

• A Russian spokesman said the assassination of Iranian leaders would have profound consequences.
• Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz have instructed the IDF to destroy all bridges over the Litani River that are being used for terrorist activity, to prevent the movement of Hezbollah operatives and weapons southward.
• Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei alive, but the IRGC is currently running Iran.
• A Russian official said Iran has highly advanced missiles that have not yet been used. Iran has a stockpile of missiles capable of destroying the entire Middle East, not just Israel.
• Iran threatened to completely close the Strait of Hormuz if US President Donald Trump makes good on his promise to target Iranian energy facilities unless the key transport route is fully reopened within 48 hours.
• The IRGC threatened to kill Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu and U.S. Pres. Trump.

Mon. Day 24 (Mar. 23, 2026)

• Trump said the U.S. will postpone — for five days — strikes targeting Iranian energy infrastructure over Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz. He cited “very good and productive conversations regarding a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East,” which he said will continue over the course of the week.
• An unnamed Iranian source affiliated with the IRGC denied that the US and Iran are holding talks about ending the war.
• Prime Min. Netanyahu confirmed that Israel will continue to strike both Iran and Hezbollah until a deal is reached.
• Israel carried out a wave of airstrikes on key IRGC sites, including its main security headquarters.
• Iran said it will use a new secret weapon that is so powerful that it will soon win the war. (Note: It is impossible to know whether this is the truth or a bluff.)
• Lebanon ordered Iran’s ambassador to leave the country.
• It was reported that an Iranian missile has completely destroyed Israel’s massive oil refinery at Haifa. The Refinery supplies around 60% of Israel’s oil needs.
• Trump said Iran has agreed to his biggest demand in order to stop the war:no nuclear weapons. (Note: I hope he is right, but what about stopping their effort to destroy Israel?)

Tue. Day 25 (Mar. 24, 2026)

• Israel said the chances of a deal with Iran are very small.
• A Pakistani source said that U.S. Vice President JD Vance, along with envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, are expected to meet Iranian officials in Islamabad as early as this week. An Iranian source claimed that “fake news is being used to manipulate the financial and oil markets and escape the quagmire in which the US and Israel are trapped.”
• The Philippines has declared a national energy emergency over the Iran war.
• Iran said it has just one message for the American soldiers: Come closer.
• Iran burned 40 years of diplomatic bridges in a single night! The missile attack on Qatar’s massive Ras Laffan LNG facility, which caused $20 billion in damage, was the last straw for the Gulf states. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE, who had previously stated, ‘We are not in this war,’ are now signaling their intention to join the fight alongside the US by expelling Iranian diplomats. Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal’s historic statement, “We reserve the right to military intervention; I will not inform them by telegram.” (Note: The Bible teaches that Saudi Arabia will sit on the sidelines and not help Iran, etc., when they attack Israel in the Battle of Gog of Magog.)
• The United States has submitted a 15-point plan to Iran aimed at ending the ongoing warin the Middle East. The plan, which was delivered to Iran via Pakistan, reportedly addresses Iran’s ballistic missile and nuclear programs, as well as issues regarding the Strait of Hormuz.

Wed. Day 26 (Mar. 25, 2026)

• Iran formally and officially rejects the US Ceasefire proposal, and has now laid out its own five conditions to end the war, per a senior Iranian security official: 1) A complete halt to “aggression and assassinations” by the enemy. 2) The establishment of concrete mechanisms to ensure that the war is not reimposed on the Islamic Republic. 3) Guaranteed and clearly defined payment of war damages and reparations. 4) The conclusion of the war across all fronts and for all resistance groups involved throughout the region. 5) International recognition and guarantees regarding Iran’s sovereign right to exercise authority over the Strait of Hormuz.
• Iran said it will end the war when it decides to do so and when its own conditions are met.
• The White House issued a stark warning to Iran, signaling that further military action is imminent if Iran refuses to agree to terms aimed at ending the escalating conflict between the U.S., Israel, and the Iranian regime.

FYI: God does not send anyone to Hell (all of us are born with a sin nature and destined to go to Hell because we sin), but God has provided a way (Jesus) for everyone to go to Heaven (and He is the only way to get there; John 14:6).

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God, who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.
