hey i know u watching bannon like me. just keep in mind, even if Netenyahu knew, if the whole govt of Israel KNEW this stuff was going down, it changes nothing concerning the potential fulfillment of prophecy. also especially, remember there is at least some prophetic implication that while Israel survives this, they suffer pretty badly before it's all over. not like the way they say on tv where 1500 Israelis equals 50,000 in America based on percentages, or whatever. No there is a real prophetic implication that Israel suffers extreme losses, i think in the north. to me this suggests the reason they take out so many people and probably destroy damascus (Isiah 17) is because they felt they had no other choice. that's IF the destruction of damascus coincides with this war. Since I think they're missing from the later ezekiel 38 battle that God wins supernaturally, it's very likely Is 17 is just around the corner. Why would God rapture His church before it had a chance to present/witness to others the Psalm 83 war, and maybe Isiah 17 as evidence of the Lord's coming in the rapture? I am not happy about being right on too many of these things over the years. I told gracethrufaith guy that God would let all of these things happen right up until the last possible person could be saved, because if He "wills that none should perish, but that.." then we gotta believe that, too. But Jack was so hopeful in his old age to justify an earlier rapture than circumstances could ever begin to justify, because it's been "imminent" for all time, supposedly. It's not imminent until the last possible person that might possibly be saved, gets saved. And that takes more for some than others.

Anyone else here feel as though they'd be as pleased with an earlier than planned 'departure', rapture or not? The world's last best hope is on its way out economically, culturally, etc. Each day brings another mind-war with sin, as we pray to accomplish good thru Him. It's as though the only things left that bring ANY comfort are those good things prompted by Him, done by His power. Everything else feels empty. "Vanity" I think Proverbs calls it, in reference to the majority of our earthly works apart from the will of God. I feel like I used to enjoy it (vanity) a lot more-- a good meal, a hobby, conversations, movies, nature. Occupy, never tire of doing good, suck it up and drive on.
