The events of this week could indicate that a storm is on the horizon.

Israel is being attacked almost every day, and it looks like the situation is going to get more intense after the upcoming Israeli elections (three days from the writing of this article) and the release of Pres. Trump’s “Deal of the Century” (at some point shortly after the election).

First, concerning the attacks on Israel: on Sept. 8, 2019, Israel’s Foreign Minister said Israel is very close to a military campaign in the Gaza Strip.

Four days later, Prime Min. Netanyahu said Israel has plans in place for a strike on Gaza.

The next day, Mr. Netanyahu said a war could break out at any moment.

It appears that Israel has finally decided that negotiating with the terrorists is worthless, and the only remaining choice is to send in the military to wipe out the terrorists.

It is important to understand that a war in Gaza could spread to other nations.

Second, concerning the upcoming Israeli elections, polls show the race is very tight.

Prime Min. Netanyahu has responded by promising, if elected, to immediately extend Israeli sovereignty to the Jordan Valley and the north Dead Sea region.

Critics say Netanyahu made this promise to win the election, but God is in control, and it is possible that He made the election tight because He knew that Netanyahu would promise to annex more of the Promised Land.

Jesus said the Fig Tree will put forth leaves (grow; Matt. 24:32) so Israel must extend her borders.

If Netanyahu is elected, Israel’s enemies are likely to start a war to stop him, so it is not unreasonable to expect trouble.

Third, also concerning the upcoming election, there is a small political party in Israel called Jewish Power (or Jewish Strength).

Early polls revealed that Jewish Power wouldn’t get enough votes to win anything, but the group came out in favor of rebuilding the Temple, and all of the major polls suddenly started showing them winning at least four seats in the 120-member Knesset.

The election is so tight that Jewish Power’s four seats could decide who heads up the next government.

The candidate that gets the most votes will probably have to make concessions on religious issues to get the support of Jewish Power.

Without concessions, the winning candidate is not likely to be Prime Minister.

This could have a major impact on fulfilling prophecy, expanding Israel’s borders, rebuilding the Temple, resuming the animal sacrifices, war, etc.

Fourth, before Netanyahu promised to immediately extend Israeli sovereignty to the Jordan Valley and the north Dead Sea region if elected, he consulted with the Trump administration.

In essence, he was told that annexing the Jordan Valley and the north Dead Sea region will not impact Pres. Trump’s peace proposal.

This signals that Trump’s Deal of the Century will recommend that those areas be kept under Israeli sovereignty.

All of this is just speculation, but this is something that is real: expanding the borders of Israel and rebuilding the Temple have become issues in this election.

World leaders (the UN, EU and some Muslim leaders) do not like this, and they are saying they will not recognize it.

Several Arab leaders (Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Jordan) are calling it an act of aggression.

Fifth, as this article is being written, there is breaking news that the two largest oil facilities in Saudi Arabia have been attacked.

There are reports of several loud explosions and a huge fire.

This is another reason to ask, “Is war on the horizon?”

If it is, this world could change very fast.

Keep looking up.

We now have:

• A UN goal of world government by 2030 (UN Agenda 2030).
• A UN goal of world religion by 2030 (Unify all religions by 2030; a planetary uniting of Religions for Peace).

The Bible teaches that world government and world religion (the Antichrist and False Prophet) will be on earth at the same time.

Multitudes know that no one knows the day or the hour of our Lord’s return, but Christians can see the day approaching.

It is obvious that Someone that Jews call YHWH and Christians call Jehovah or God has revealed signs of the end of the age, and it is rapidly approaching.

First, in late Aug. 2019, approximately 1,000 people assembled in Germany to promote a UN-approved one-world religion by 2030.

It is obvious that the god of these religious groups is not the God of the Bible, and their so-called “Masterplan for Humanity” is not Biblical or Christian.

What they are proposing for the “Common good” of the world could very well turn into Mystery Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots and abominations of the earth (Rev. 17).

It seems obvious that we now have a UN goal of world government by 2030 (UN Agenda 2030); a UN goal of world religion by 2030 (Unify all religions by 2030; A planetary uniting of Religions for Peace); and a Bible that teaches that world government and world religion (the Antichrist and False Prophet) will be on earth at the same time.

Second, in 2004, the Democrat Party Platform referenced God several times; in 2008, one time; and in 2012, none.

Even worse, God has not only gone from several mentions to no mentions in eight years; He was also booed during the 2012 Democrat Party Platform hearings (by contrast, the 2012 Republican Party Platform mentioned God 12 times).

In late Aug. 2019, the Democrats passed a resolution calling themselves the party of the religiously unaffiliated, which means religious voters are being pushed out of the party along with all mentions of God.

Some party leaders have actually called religious voters deplorables, bigots, hypocrites, etc.

To be anti-God is to be antichrist because Jesus is God.

The Bible says, “He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son” (I Jn. 2:22).

The government of Antichrist will be anti-God because the Antichrist will say that he is God.

Third, the Mark of the Beast will be a mark in a person’s right hand or forehead.

Several months ago, the large Internet retailer, Amazon, bought Whole Foods.

Amazon is now testing hand scanners that can identify people for store purchases, and they hope to have their hand scanners in place at their Whole Foods stores by the beginning of 2020 (Rev. 13:16).

It is obvious that incredible technology for the Mark of the Beast is developing.

Fourth, an astute reader sent me an e-mail about her word study on Jesus’ prophecy of “famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in divers places” (Matt. 24:7).

The Greek word that is translated earthquakes is seismos (it is the origin of the word seismology).

There is a Bible story about Jesus sleeping in a boat when a great tempest (great seismos or storm) arose that scared the disciples (Matt. 8:23-27).

Jesus spoke and calmed the sea, and the disciples wondered what kind of man can calm the wind and the sea.

The lady that e-mailed me was pointing out that the Greek word seismos can refer to hurricanes (like Hurricane Dorian) and cyclones as well as earthquakes.

One must ask, in this day of climate-change fanaticism, should Christians believe that Jesus can control the wind and seas?

It is obvious to those that believe the Bible that He can.

Fifth, in May of this year, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Florida Emergency Management Director Jared Moskowitz visited Israel.

Fox News reported that they went to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem where they wrote a prayer on a piece of paper and inserted it in a crack in the Wailing Wall.

The prayer of both men was that Florida would not be hit by a hurricane this year.

Breaking Israel News reported this story while Hurricane Dorian (a seismos) was pounding the Bahamas and people were unsure about the path it would take.

Nevertheless, the storm slowly moved toward Florida, weakened, and veered north off the coast of Florida.

Some of the outer bands came ashore, but the eye didn’t hit Florida.

Knowing that Jesus can control the wind and the seas, and that He answers prayer, I intend to watch Florida the rest of this year.

Sixth, the situation in the Middle East continues to be a powder keg.

• Israel has deployed more weapons and troops near her borders with Lebanon and Syria;
• Iran is constructing more bases in Lebanon, Syria and Iraq;
• Iran has started up advanced centrifuges to increase the enrichment of uranium;
• Israel is evaluating a military attack on Iran;
• the U.S. has warned Lebanon to immediately destroy an Iranian base in Lebanon or the U.S. will support an Israeli attack;
• Israel has received verbal support from Bahrain, the UAE and Saudi Arabia over its struggle with Hezbollah and Iran;
• and Prime Min. Netanyahu said, “This sounds like the Messianic Times” (the times just prior to the coming of Messiah).

Where we are on God’s prophetic timeclock is obvious to those that want to know.
