Prophetic Pulpit: It can happen at any moment!

                           Wow! This is really happening!

It is no secret that Turkey's relationship with Israel has been difficult at best, but now Israel's war with Hamas has tipped the tables. Turkey's President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan has publicly declared Israel to be an enemy of Turkey. The Turkish President is vehemently accusing Israel of crimes against humanity over its ongoing war with Hamas terror group. Erdogan vowed to bring Jerusalem to justice over "crimes committed in the Gaza Strip."

In an emboldened speech to a mass pro-Palestinian rally in Istanbul, Erdogan declared that his country was making preparations to proclaim Israel a "war criminal" for its actions in Gaza. In that same speech Erdogan declared that Hamas was not a terrorist organization, but a liberation movement. The Turkish President then went as far as warning Israel that "Turkish troops may come in the night." The crowd then began to chant to send the Turkish army to Gaza, to fight against Israel. 

Wow! This is really happening before our very eyes!

"Tim, what do you mean 'this is really happening before our very eyes"?

The bible tells us in Ezekiel 38 that because of their mutual hatred toward the Israeli country, Russia, Iran AND TURKEY will align together to annihilate the tiny nation of Israel (See my blog, "What is the Gog, Magog war?") Russia, Iran and Turkey will lead a coalition of Islamic nations to utterly wipe Israel off of the earth. 

We have already seen a strong alliance between Russia and Iran. Russia has invested heavily in buying Iranian suicide drones to attack Ukrainian cities. In return Iran is to receive Russia's advanced SU-35 fighter jets. Putin has also put the world on notice that "to attack Iran would be to attack Russia." When (not "if") Israel attacks Iran to destroy its nuclear capability, this will bring Russia into the war against Israel. 

Now we see Turkey is openly showing its disdain for Israel. Putin, Khamenei, and Erdogan have always had ties together, but because of Israel's war with Hamas, these ties have quickly gotten much stronger. The BIG-3 is aligning itself against Israel. 

The Ezekiel 38 war could happen at any moment. There are so many things that could suddenly ignite this war like a match put to a stick of dynamite. Everything is in place. All the alliances have been made as prophesied in Ezekiel 38. 

So, Tim, can you tell me what this means to the church? 

The bible makes it very clear that the Ezekiel 38 war will happen just before or after the rapture. 

It is an end-time battle that happens just before the return of Christ. The point being, another sign that Jesus is coming!
