WAR: Coming Soon To The Middle East - Preparations Underway

Recently, the news of war in the Middle East are widespread and frequent - bringing the issue of war imminent on a daily basis. War appears to be very very close as preparations increase while the alignment of nations brings both Isaiah 17 and Ezekiel 38-39 to the forefront.

In fact, reading the daily news (particularly today's news) - and aligning the evolving scenarios unfolding in the Middle East today with biblical prophecy is nothing short of astonishing.






Many of us have seen the Isaiah 17 scenario as a proxy war - engineered by the axis of Iran and Russia. The article below seems to bolster that view:

Syrian President Bashar Assad should attack Israel, says an Iranian newspaper considered the mouthpiece of the Supreme Leader.

Iran is concerned that the fall of Assad's regime will cost the Islamic Republic its closest ally and could ignite anti-Syrian elements in Lebanon, base of the Iranian-funded Hizbullah terrorist organization and political party.


The Kayhan newspaper, which operates directly under the supervision of the Islamic Supreme Leader of Iran, wrote last week that Assad has every reason to strike Israel because of Israel’s alleged responsibility for the bombing in Damascus, which killed several of Assad’s’ top military officers.

The newspaper’s call for war cannot be taken lightly. Kayhan “offers insight into the most extreme views of Iran’s leaders and into the mind-set and plans of those who are at the center of power,” according to New York Times correspondent Michael Slackman.


RightSideNews reported that an editorial in the Iranian newspaper offered Assad two options – a limited war to “liberate part of the occupied Syrian territories" or a "comprehensive war of no set duration" against a supposed alliance headed by Israel.

The newspaper foresees “a joint war by Syria, Iran, Hizbullah and others against the Zionist regime.”

“It is patently clear that Israel is currently totally unprepared for military confrontation – on the contrary, the worst possible scenario for it right now would be a confrontation with Syria,” Kayhan wrote.

“Such a confrontation would turn the atmosphere in the region against the Zionist regime, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, and against the entire American-Zionist front – thus unifying the resistance front and making it operational.”




Iran in recent days sent a series of missile and rocket convoys to the Islamic Jihad terrorist group in the Gaza Strip, a senior Egyptian security official told WND

The official said the increased weapons flow to Gaza is seen as part of a wider Iranian strategy to prepare for the possibility of a war involving Syria, with particular concern about the prospect of a future Turkish or NATO confrontation with Damascus.




The transfer of chemical weapons from Syria to Hezbollah is a clear casus belli, and Israel will act "decisively and without hesitation or restraint," Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman said Tuesday.

Speaking at a press conference at the EU-Israel Association Council meeting in Brussels, Liberman said this would be "a completely different ballgame, and we hope for the understanding and cooperation of the international community.

Regarding Iran, Liberman said that after three rounds of negotiations in Istanbul, Baghdad and Moscow, the time has come to draw some conclusions.

"We cannot negotiate forever," Liberman said. "The time will come when negotiations must end and action must begin. We have patience, we are waiting, we are anxiously monitoring these talks, but we also hope to see substantial results."



Imminent?

Kadima chairman Shaul Mofaz hinted Tuesday, for the second time in 24 hours, that an Israeli strike on Iran is imminent. Mofaz was Deputy Prime Minister and a member of the inner security cabinet until a few days ago, and therefore was in a position to know if such a strike is indeed impending.



Is this scenario the real reason for the split between Kadima and Likud?


Mofaz contented himself with heavily hinting that he was referring to plans for an imminent Iran strike, "which are kept under wraps," he explained. He made it clear that he opposes such a strike: "I think any attack is premature, for all intents and purposes, before we have exhausted the existing possibilities."



Analysts believe that if the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad were to fall, Russian, which has been a close ally to Assad, may reconsider its denial of S-300 anti-aircraft missiles to Iran.


If Assad were to fall, there are increasing indications that Moscow would supply the S-300s to Iran.

“If the Syrian regime is changed by force, or if Russia doesn’t like the outcome, it most likely will respond by selling the S-300s to Iran,” said Rusian Pukhov, director of the think-tank Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies in Moscow. He’s also on the Defense Ministry advisory board.

Iran now is concerned that Israel, the U.S., or both, may decide to launch military action against its nuclear sites, since repeated discussions and diplomacy have just about run their course.

Meanwhile, Russia has vetoed all Security Council resolutions that call for harsher sanctions against Iran and undoubtedly would oppose any effort to call for military action.




President Shimon Peres on Monday condemned Syrian government statements that it would deploy chemical weaponsin the event of a foreign invasion, and said Israel would do whatever it takes to eliminate the threat these weapons pose to the Jewish state.

“Use of chemical weapons is internationally forbidden,” he said in a CNN interview with Elise Labott. “We shall not remain indifferent and tell them, ‘Do what you want.’”


Asked how far Israel was prepared to go to prevent Syrian chemical weapons from being used or transferred to terrorist organizations, Israel’s octogenarian leader replied, “Until it will stop being a danger.”


Asked about the Burgas attack in which five Israelis were killed and dozens more were injured, Peres reiterated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s accusation that Iran and Hezbollah stood behind the suspected suicide bombing. He asserted that there was enough hard evidence to implicate Iran and its proxy Hezbollah in the terrorist attack.

“It’s an open war of Iran against Israel” and more attacks are being planned against Israeli targets, Peres said.




As US Navy prepares to send minesweepers to Persian Gulf, Tehran again threatens to close Straits of Hormuz


When Pentagon officials announced plans to send US Navy minesweepers and warships into the Gulf for exercises, they carefully tried to avoid framing it as a direct show of force against Iran. Tehran took care of that.

Iranian commanders and political leaders — facing an increasing squeeze from international sanctions — have sharply stepped up threats and defiant statements in recent weeks over the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint at the mouth of the Gulf that is the route for one fifth of the world’s oil.

...the latest flurry from Tehran shows that Iranian authorities see the strait as perhaps their most valuable asset in brinksmanship over tightening sanctions and efforts to resume nuclear talks with world powers.

The US military maneuvers scheduled for September — to be joined by ships from about 20 American allies — are part of a Pentagon buildup in the Gulf with more troops and naval firepower seeking to rattle Iran and reassure Saudi Arabia and Washington’s other Gulf Arab partners worried about Iran’s influence and power.

Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guards both scoffed and raged at the US-led war games, calling American naval power weak while also complaining that US should be pulling its forces out of the region rather than sending in reinforcements.

Adm. Ali Reza Tangsiri, acting commander of the Revolutionary Guard naval forces, claimed Iran has full military control over the strait — an unmistakable challenge to Washington and its Gulf allies.



During a Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee debate Tuesday on the possibility of an Israeli attack on Syria's stockpiles of chemical weapons, IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz said the army may find it difficult to launch a "pinpoint" attack and warned that any other strike in Syria may drag the Jewish state into a broader regional conflict.

Addressing the civil war in Syria, the army chief said Iran and Hezbollah have provided substantial assistance to Assad's forces – including weapons

Gantz told the committee that Syrian President Bashar Assad's regime has boosted protection around its chemical weapons stockpiles and that the weapons have not landed in the hands of "negative elements" as of yet.

"But this situation may change," he stressed, "and then we will be faced with a dilemma."

Gantz said Israel must also consider "who will remain after we act and in whose hands (the weapons) will land."



The Syrian government has moved chemical weapons to airports on its borders, the rebel Free Syrian Army said Tuesday, a day after the regime warned it could use them if attacked by an outside force.

"We in the joint command of the Free Syrian Army inside the country know very well the locations and positions of these weapons," a statement from the FSA said.

We also reveal that (President Bashar) Assad has transferred some of these weapons and equipment for mixing chemical components to airports on the border."





Also in the news (remember: "Big Crisis = Big Change"):



The yields on closely-watched two-year debt surged by 78 basis points to a modern-era high of 6.42pc, leaving it unclear how long the country can continue funding itself. Italy’s two-year yields vaulted to 4.6pc.

“We can’t keep going like this for another 15 days,” said Prof Miguel Angel Bernal from Madrid’s Institute of Market Studies. “The European Central Bank has to bring out its heavy artillery.”


The Spanish newspaper El Confidencial reported sources close to premier Mariano Rajoy complaining bitterly that the crisis engulfing Spain was a “failure of the whole European Project and the incompetence of its leaders”.

There is deep shock in government circles that the €65bn austerity package passed by the Spanish parliament last week amid bitter protests across the country – and imposed by the EU – has failed to make any difference.

Mr Jenkins said the fire must be contained before it reached the next big country, either by massive ECB intervention or full fiscal union. Germany is still blocking both. “The battle for Spain is already lost. The battle for Italy has begun,” he said.




The euro-crisis is accelerating as Spanish borrowing costs continue rising and Germany, Netherlands and Luxembourg on Monday (23 July) were warned they may lose their triple A rating due to 'rising uncertainty.'

Moody's, one of the big three credit ratings agencies, said risks that Greece may quit the eurozone and an "increased likelihood" that Spain and Italy would need more financial assistance weighs down on the three top-rated countries, as Germany is the main contributor to the bailout pot.

Markets fell across the world on Monday and investors dumped European assets




Saying Japan’s very survival is at stake, two advisory panels urged the government to take immediate action--including finding an alternative capital--to prepare for an earthquake that could devastate the Tokyo area.

The working groups are discussing measures to deal with massive quakes that could be triggered by movement along the Nankai Trough as well as one directly under the capital.

In an unusual move, the groups called on the government to pass legislation for the quake-preparedness measures even before estimating the number of fatalities and damage from such temblors.

"There is a need for the entire society to deal with the two quakes that are expected to cause extensive damage," according to interim reports released on July 19 by the two working groups, respectively.

The two working groups have yet to come up with their own damage estimates. But their recommendation for swift passage of legislation underscores their sense of urgency from not being able to pinpoint when such a destructive quake might hit.

In preparing for a crippling quake directly under Tokyo, the interim report proposes selecting beforehand alternative sites that could provide back-up for capital functions. Among the cities named as possible alternative capitals were Sapporo, Sendai, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka.

What Lt. Gen. Gantz is trying to say is, he doesn't have confidence that a surgical strike will be possible this time, and any other type of strike will trigger a regional war, and he doesn't want Israel to be the trigger.
Yet, if we DON'T act, and just wait for something to blow, that would be less predictable in handle-ability. If we go in, however we do it, we have some control. But then, we will have started the conflict. If we do not go in and wait, there is less control. That's why he says its a dilemna.
We HAVE to go in, but we can't go in.

There are two key point from todays "Birth pangs report" :) ...The Us isnt sending mine sweeping equipment until September . So that should be telling . Not until SEPTEMBER . Also the Kadima member came out and said to expect an attack imminentaly (Just like when Leo the Lion Panetta said Israel would attack in April) making people angry that he had undermined Israel ...Its called Psy-ops .America is dictating this conflict and Israel will not strike without our backing . My prediction , there will be war but not until after the election . And i know this won't be popular on here but either way Obama or Romney (who worked with Bibi in the past) will both be there for Israel . Obama will probably pull his teeth out but he will be there for them . His administration has moved troops to Kuwait , Oman , Azerbajain ...sent extra warships , Is sending minesweepers, sold bunker buster bombs to Israel , has completely surrounded Iran , helped with the stuxnet virus , sold arms and airplanes to the Saudis and Turks to help with the war . He may have made some other TERRIBLE decisions in the middleeast but i'll put up a thousand dollars against anyone on here that when the stuff hits the fan we will be behind Israel Obama or Romney ? Care to place a wager ?

Hi Brother Nathan, :)
No thanks, not a betting-gambling kinda gal :) Not supposed to be, are we? :) Whether it’s the Bobblehead-in-Chief or Romney, matters not considering Israel. Gods Word is very clear, no one will help Israel in the Isaiah 17 war. BTW, I believe it was GW that signed the deal for the bunker-busting bombs. He did it right before his term ended. He knew with the WH imposter, Israel would need help FOR SURE! And also, the Turks aren’t exactly our friends, or anyone else’s at this point, are they? They have, as God said, now are against Israel.

God Bless!

Wowza! I'm calling today "speculation" day! So many possibilities but just one great big all powerful GOD! He is probably getting a huge chuckle out of our speculation because what he has planned is going to astound us all! As he usually does!
But it does let him know, he has a big fan club here with ants in their pants WAITING for Jesus!
MOZAM-Stephen is a sweet brother in Christ and we love him very much! We all have certain signs we look for. Scott looks at all of them. I love following the "natural" signs like earthquakes and storms and other earth and space signs. Some people really look for the revived roman empire signs. Etc. Now Stephen looks at money signs like World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. He is particularily fascinated with the Eliot Wave Theory! Now this is his personal little thing he is convinced contains a clue to the rapture. Not everyone agrees with his assumption, however, we try to love and respect each other here and he is quite convinced that the EW THEORY gives him a leg up on Rapture timing. It ceratainly is a good predictor of the stock market and he shares wirh us daily the indicators.
I'm not hanging my hat on it but Stephen is facinated by it. I'm more concerned with the middle east and praying for the people there. My focus stays partially the same and partially changes due to current needs of the world.

2John1:8-11Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward. Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.

Hi WV, are you home resting comfortably? Praise God for directing you to the skilled surgeon. I'm convinced that He brings these special people into our lives just when we need them. Some day when we are finally home it will be fascinating to see how God weaves it all together in our lives, forming a rich tapestry.

WVBORN56 said...

Hi gearedup2go, I'm still in NC staying at my cousins home. I hope to head back thursday or friday. I am feeling much better. The collapsed lung is still painful but I can't complain. They say the heart does not actually feel pain from the cutting and stitching they do so no pain there. Just tired and weak. We went out today and I went in to a restaurant and walked a shopping cart thru Target so I am starting to rebound with some walking. The total recoup time looks to be around 3-4 weeks. Since I have a desk job I hope to be back 1/2 days next week. I can't emphasias enough God's hand and fingerprints on the whole process. My wife has been amazing and there have been so many hidden blessings. The time with my first cousin and his wife has been wonderful. Even the relationships with the care givers was a blessing. Nurses are very special people!

My wife's high school girl friend who lost her husband six month's ago to cancer called my wife today. Here is what happened. My surgeon here in NC called to speak to my cardiologist in WV for follow up visits. The cardiologist was on vacation and his assistant was not available so my wife's old girl friend took the phone call. She was shocked to hear I had heart surgery. My wife had reached out to her at the time she lost her husband and she was returning the favor. It was no coincidence that she was the nurse who took the "accidental" call! God is simply incredible. Those who do not see God in this world simply are not paying attention. We serve a wonderful Father!

Scott said...

WV - I'm so glad to hear that you are doing well! And that was an incredible story - God's hand indeed. It sounds like you are right on schedule. I've been to that hospital and its very impressive isn't it? They have great facilities there IMO. Anyway - everybody has had you in their thoughts and prayers :)

Stephen,

I'm going to be praying for you tonight. This is a sad and degenerating conversation. You are
one who has been willing to look at other points of view and many of us have seen that. YOu also have cared about people who were oblivious to the Love the Lord has for them and
blind to the dangerous times we live in.
Many of us are not into financial things so we really do not understand
what the systems mean.But we understand that having our new lives in Christ is a daily experience .
Each of us is called to walk and keep in step with the Spirit. Don't let this mean spirited exchange turn you against the fellowship here.
I know I am not alone in feeling sad for this attack that lacks respect for you and is aimed at hurting you.

You will have to watch your words too.You didn't start this but you sure don't want to sin in your response.In Christ,

Stephen,
Time is too short for Christians to turn on each other. There have been predictions and misses for years. In high school our Bible teacher would always tell us that he would see us Monday if we're not all raptures over the weekend. That was 1982. I don't know what the future holds over the next few days, weeks, months or even years. But I do know that in 434 years I will meet you for a Starbucks in Heaven. Caver, WV, Robin and everyone else is invited too. My treat.

If there are no Starbucks in Heaven, I guess we can go to Chick-fil-a

Few of us feel that if your particular insights aren't precisely the same as ours, then you are not saved.

Mr and Mrs C give Post-modernist philosophical advice that is void of God’s written Word. You excuse and appease others, and yourselves, of rebellion against the WRITTEN Word, instead of following GOD’S commandments that you reject out of hand. Those Words will Judge you at the Bema.

Know this -
1Cor.6:12 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
1Cor 10:23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

Stephen, your obsessive behaviour and ungodly ranting is evidence that your choice is a bad one. It is harming your soul, as are all who are encouraging you in your addiction. This ‘lawful thing’ needs ‘cutting off’ like a rotten member. God is jealous for your attention Stephen, but you are obsessed with mammon. 1John1:9

Because of his comments, anything he says has zero merit, all the EWI stuff. Come on.

For those that didn't see it, Stephen called a bunch of people assholes and told them to go to hell. Then he called all of us idiots because he says the rapture isn't going to be anytime soon.

Interesting how no matter the multiple names you use, or the multiple “anons” you use, its always the same, and has been for what, closing in on year now? Always Stephen with you and you try with Ally and ourselves too. Then you bring in a supposed supporter of what ever nonsense you are spouting. Usually another “anon” or one of your fake characters. Your tactics are elaborate to say the least, and constantly changing, but your words ALWAYS betray you. This is Scotts blog, and he is obediently Serving the Lord . Your so immersed in your own self proclaimed righteousness, that you cant see your error. It would be interesting to see you try to spout your nonsense face to face, say in Church?
You always attempt to project on others, what you are guilty of yourself, including your own admitted mental illnesses, only its more severe than you had stated, isn’t it? Creating “characters” and various anons pretending to be different anons, to essentially have conversations with yourself, and attempt to make your self promoting attempted “intellect” for your own praise, NOT for Him, is a sure indication of your state of mind and soul. Even going as far as to try to encourage a dear Brother to harm himself. That is peoples actual lives we are talking about here, that you have no regard for at all! Facts are facts about you and yours, and Scott knows it, for a FACT! The proper authorities will know, and that’s a promise. We know who you are. Yet your doing all this for your own twisted version of everyones “good”. What!? No your not! Its all about you, and you could care less about Brothers and Sisters here.
Yeah, I know, next it will be we’re all “witches” and are in an “evil den” at Scotts blog.
And then the attacks against me, by your creations saying this is a place of “hatred” and that we use “hateful” words etc. Its ALWAYS the same, always. Waiting for our Blessed Bride Groom, the enemy has convinced you that you’re the “good Servant”, but your not. But hey, you even attack Scott and falsely accuse him of using “hateful” words too, so Im honored for such company. Interesting your vile responses to Scott, especially when he deletes your posts, no matter what fake name or anon you use. Why so upset? Because its all about you, not Him! You and yours main objective here has been to control Scotts blog for some time now, to turn it your version of “Apostasy Now”. You were down right gitty the other day when your twisted message was posted twice, exclaiming you “witnessed twice”. No, you don’t “witness” for Jesus, your words repel those who could be led to Jesus.
You know, some of us have been and continue to Pray for you! So many dear Brothers and Sisters here, are going to be shocked when the truth of you before Him is known to all…if its not revealed sooner… Sincerely Praying for your illness. Some Scriptures for you…

To see these so called (anon's) come against one to joyfully push suicide only speaks volumes of their character, please do not let them faze you, OK? Remember in their past post they want this blog to be a certain format and yours and our sharing of scripture does not fit that. They will keep trying in any form to show our way is not working so they can try to hijack this one. Scott and the Lord has this :)

One thing that separates your postings from theirs is yours is simply just you speaking of what is important to you. Right, wrong or indifferent. You have stayed there and do not set out to hurt or attack others. They are looking for anyone to break so they can justify all their cruelty and feel better about themselves. For me, I say, as you type,(anons) it helps us get a clearer picture every posting of who is who and where it is coming from. They will learn the hard way for sure.

We have all had our say about your theories and from there we needed to make a greater choice than purposely hurting you. IMO, you are not hurting anyone. You are not taking scripture and saying God said this or that, but it sounds to me you are sorting this out with a sharing spirit on the blog. We all have to choose our battles so to speak and picking on you is just wrong. People can disagree and still move forward in love on topics that do bring them together, not divide.

To think in no time we are going to be living in a place that has harmony, peace, love and more. A place of pure Joy, a place of being neighbors with our doors and windows unlocked without fear of any form of attack. A place that will be counter to what these people(s) are living in right now. A place I am most confident will drop them to their knees for all they have done here on this blog as well as to others. A place of GREAT accountability, auhhhhh.....let's us think on those terms.

The Lord has them, he is with them on every word they type as they grieve the HS. He has this Brother. Let them keep adding up their list of wrongs since they do not wish to reduce them after much loving correction from the blog. The consequences are theirs and theirs alone. Keep up the positive frame of mind, you are going to need all you can get in the days ahead :)

I am not sure if your others did get deleted or went into the lovely spam folder. I would like to think that if Scott is going to clean house on bad postings, he will get theirs too. Please have a good day. When you want to say these lovely words because your upset and frustrated, just try typing $$$$$$$ :)'s you will have a win/win Brother. We will know what you mean. :)

God Bless!!

Every word these regular bloggers type screams ‘Colossian Heresy’. They are ignorant of Scriptural context and are directly abusive toward God's revealed Word.

Words DO hurt, far more than sticks and stones, in particular those that are wrested from Biblical context and thrown carelessly into the arena for effect. These same words will judge you, be clear about that. 1John 1:9 Quick!

None of you has genuine, scriptural love for Stephen, just sickly sweet, emotional flattery. The love of God is about SELF-sacrifice, and as you are all so busy blowing your own trumpets, trying to prove your own self righteousness, Stephen gets lost yet again, as The Lord’s word is constantly being snatched away from him.

Stephen needs to hear from Jesus, but just like the birds of the air, you all peck at the seeds of God’s Word so they cannot sprout and bear fruit in Stephen’s heart. Meanwhile Scott just lets it all happen.

GG said...

Anon(s)~

Nope, sorry, Nope..Nope..Nope. - General Statement -That is an emotional abuse of power. We have the ability to make a positive difference. To hammer or pick on someone(s) with such disdain daily is plain wrong. To post inflammatory remarks (this pertains to anyone), incite violence, mislead with postings to attack, is wrong.

The same theme rings through all these anon and some other postings. Justify the cruelty and dismiss and deny the actions that lead up to it. This is a clear case in the last days... We should not be doing it, period. Is this how people would handle witnessing to the non-saved? No amount of changing names and styles is going to stop the obvious awareness that none of this represents Jesus' love and action for all.

Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Luke 11:34 Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body also is full of darkness
Proverbs 17:15 Acquitting the guilty and condemning the innocent--the LORD detests them both.

I am sorry but, Nope...Nope...Nope...not buying any justification for cruel behavior against another Brother or Sister. Let us look at the intent of the heart who is doing the correcting and first see if they have approached in love and according to Gods will to help guide those who have been in error. This has become a platform to do evil and claim it is under the guise of serving the Lord. BIG difference, HUGE difference.

Jesus did not treat those who he came upon with a berating attitude if they did not listen to his word. He moved on and left them with the freedom of choice, called free will. In the end, it is up to each and every one of us if we will receive it or not. The love is the same before, during and after the process of witnessing...Big difference (general statement) to us all. We must get it right if we are doing it his way, not ours.

Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.

Let us go in peace and turn ourselves around. Afterall if we look back on those who have witnessed to us in our past, did we get it right and with the first person that came along? God sends many to help the lost. Soon that time is coming to a close and trying to berate a Brother or Sister is not helpful. This energy can be taken to apply to the lost if used correctly or they too may flee.

God Bless!!

2 or 5 years from now, there still be a new comer with a different views and will probably post as "anon".
Will you blame them for being an "anon". unless Scott removed the anon profile there will always be an "anon".
that anon then will be attacked by the famous group of anon haters.
Instead of being a hater why not just forget the past, move forward and depend your faith rather than attacking the anons.
I do not want to be your brother/sister if that is what you do to your brethren.

Last remark on this topic, I have other things more pressing than this. I love you just the same. There is no hate on this end, hate is a strong word that doesn't even apply. It's not about the anon's if you will re-read, it applys to all. The anon's seem to be posting the same story, different names, same style, etc.

That is why they are being addressed in various parts only. That doesn't change the final focus and that is what will Jesus do in this situation. We are all in this together. A house divided against itself cannot stand. We need to be one unit in the body of Christ so the HS can work through us all as a team in these last days. We are on the same side :) We don't have to kill one of our own in spirit or otherwise while we wait on the Lord.

Soon enough we will all be one happy family and this will be a faint memory. Right now we need to get through these precious moments we have with the right hearts and behaviors that glorify the Lord not deteriorate all his work he did to save us all. We need to go help and not hurt in these last hours. Go in peace.

God Bless!!

gg,
can you removed the anon profile? i guess not.
whatever pressing things you may have, anon will still be anon.
hate is undeniably all over this thread and in the past. We cannot removed the hatred if we do not accept it is there.
Its always been repeated as justifying the attacked on anon, of what the anons did in the past.
Will God remember our sins? Regulars here on the other hand are doing the opposite, they treasure it. And then used it to continue with their assault.

I guess the group do enjoys assaulting the anons to keep them all away in this blog.
I just can't imagine what will be the name of the church, "church of the anon haters" saved by grace built in love.

forgive, forget, for God.

Absolutely!

Can’t you see MrsC & co. that your persistent vitriol against all and any ‘Anon’; is partly responsible for their appearance. We all know you are wrong, each of us knows we are separate and unconnected except through defective detective efforts. It is asking for trouble to have such spleen; some run for cover as Anon to hide from it, others simply don’t even think about giving a name, a few may even do it to deliberately antagonise you; making a simple, innocent post and wait for the tempest to erupt.

It’s horrible, and as Anon has said, Anon’s will ALWAYS exist as long as the option is there. It’s an extremely silly attitude over something you cannot control.

That is the main problem here, it’s CONTROL, Mrs C & co. demands it, can’t have it, and point blank refuses to accept they have no control, so the ‘attack’, they like to accuse others of – begins again.

Let it go Mrs C & co., it’s a valid part of internet life, get over it.

WVBORN56 said...

Seriously anon, I have no problem with God's word being shared but in your case it is not being applied in context and never applied in love. You refuse to sign a name even though you have been asked nicely by many here. That demonstates an arrogant pride on your part.

Does Stephen have it right? I think you would get a resounding "NO" from most board members. But I still appreciate his insight and his understanding of the markets but certainly not his biblical understanding the rapture of the church. We are not however all on the same level of understanding, maturity or growth.

What you are doing is the equilevent of an adult beating up a child for spilling his milk. The frustration you have with him is my frustration with you remaining stubborn in regards to using a board name. Understand? I ask nicely but I don't make it a constant issue.

Really my sense is that you could have issues with self righteousness and legalism? I appreciate holding God's word at the highest level but what does Paul ask about those who do so without love? They area resounding gong. Wat are the two greatest commandments? I think God wants to keep it simple! Love God, Love your brother, turn the other cheek...

I also take issue with your understanding of God as it relates to the Bema judgement seat of Christ. While our works of wood and hay and stuble will be burned up in the consuming fire of God our works that last will be our rewards from God. He will not be beating us up at the Bema seat. It is all about what we did that lasts and our rewards! It will not be a negative experience. It will be a celebration!

I think most of us are here to learn, watch together and fellowwhip. Please don't continue to be a distraction? Your real purpose is not to teach IMHO but to cause strife. If it were being used as a gift from God to extol His word it would be done in love and it is simply not in your case.

My two cents.

Insert any name you wish here said...

Let me get this straight. Stephen can call people assholes and idiots and Mrs. C can tell people they are Satan's helpers and be delusionaly paranoid about "anons", GG can accuse people being dark and evil because they dont agree with something she said, Ally can tell of her "visions" and "inside knowledge".
Just checking, Scott, to make sure I got this straight.

I am genuinely glad you are improving.

FALSE TEACHING is my agenda; and Stephen, the poor soul is at the sharp end of it! He has had the abominable advice of man’s reasoning. He NEEDS Jesus word’s soaking him, not vain philosophy and mysticism.

While you are recovering, may I suggest you search out the rewards at the Bema and our suffering loss for failing to keep Jesus commandments – not the Law of Moses.

The definition of ‘legalism’ is to think one can improve one’s free gift of Salvation by keeping parts of the Law of Moses. NOT possible! That has nothing to do with being obedient to Jesus commands of the N.T.

John 14: "If you love Me, keep My commandments. – context IF – conditional meaning that if we don’t our love is ‘sounding brass’. No one says it is easy to die to self, and that’s what it’s all about (consider your SELF dead) BUT before anything can be taken to the Lord for cleansing we have to KNOW about it.

John 15:10 "IF you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.

THIS IS LOVE, that we walk according to His COMMANDMENTS. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it. 2John1:6.

I gave the pure and simple Scripture of John 15 a while ago about ABIDE in Jesus, the Vine. That was said to be straight from the pit of hell! God’s straightforward, unadulterated, Scriptures have been called VILE and generally EVIL. WV doesn’t that disturb you? It does me. THINK about those you are being chummy with, who know diddly squit about Scripture yet set themselves up as leaders and teachers of men. GOD FORBID! Whatever is Scott thinking of to allow these women full sway over his blog. Essentially Scott is responsible for the abuse and spread of these teachings by false teachers of a word that is not Biblical. (Post-modern Gnosticism)

Call me what names you want, but God’s Love for us does not involve ignorance of the Word. I have taken a great deal of stick from Christians here as I have tried hard to reach Stephen, and others, with a little knowledge of The Word they obviously have NO IDEA about. God wants us to GROW in Grace, through His Word, not be stifled with an emotional diet of Spiritualism. THAT’s where the enemy of our souls wants to keep us and the regulars at this blog are obliging.

Not ‘loving’ enough for you? That’s because Truth hurts! Love! That’s NOT emotional Little House on the Prairie stuff. We are to love as Christ loved the Church – He GAVE Himself for her. SELF sacrifice is what Biblical Love means.

My righful and free CHOICE is to be called Anonymous!

Thank you Anon for your keen observations.

Mrs.C said...

Insert any name,
Right…if your so offended by Stephen’s deleted post, why are you repeating the offense? Scott deleted it right, so obviously he knows, you don’t have to tell him. Interesting the word “paranoid” is used, once again, time after time, trying to deflect. In fact, that has been tried on Scott too! Interesting the attempt to divert attention from this known person/persons who hide behind “anon” and other fake “characters” created. Also interesting how when stated about this evil attacks on a Brother to harm himself, you conveniently skip over that part. And now, knowing full well that a dear, dear Brother just had heart surgery, your response is disrespectful, untrue, and again, very telling. To help you understand what Scott thinks, so you “got this straight”. lets see what Scott has said about the same subject matter, shall we? And I quote...

Scott said...
Especially considering your rather elaborate tactics (having 'conversations' with yourself, posing as different alias', etc...Its very bizarre. VERY bizarre. And obsessional. Seriously. You need some self-reflection on this at a minimum.

Scott said...
there have been several threads where I know for a fact that you were pretending to be two different people, "agreeing" with each other in a 'conversation'...Its pretty easy to do from my end. So please.....
serpent? That is how you characterize someone daring to disagree with you?
So now you predictably play the victim.
Who needs therapy? I believe you do - based on the games you play, the amount of time and energy you spend here in deceit, the obsession you have, etc. Yes, I'd definitely say that you could use some therapy to work this out. I know a lot more about your tactics here than you realize :)

Scott said.
As far as the perception of paranoia, I'm not really paranoid by nature. There was an individual who was posting as a variety of different people, including "anon" - (its easy to detect) and the individual came here periodically, to create divisiveness. He/she pops up periodically and it seems to be some kind of weird game with the individual. This actually does happen and it is worth watching for.

Nuff said…

hartdawg said...

ENOUGH ALREADY! Stephen, tho i disagree with your connecting the stock market with the rapture you're entitled to your view. humbly seek the lord and he'll iron out your theology. and by the way Stephen the globalist control everything INCLUDING THE STOCK MARKET. just stay close to the Lord and seek Christian fellowship.
SCOTT, I'M sick of all this bickering (probably not as much as you are) that's why i rarely comment anymore. i hate comment moderation bud tragically i think that's necessary.

WVBORN56 said...

Anon you raise a few good points but so did I. They would be more well received if done more gently. I have repeatedly over the past year made it clear I disagree with Stephen but have done so in a way as to not inflame him. Teaching in love in my understanding is done with kindness. I made my point and I move on. When you come across as a bully or holier than thou people will not have ears to listen.

Scott has also made it clear on the role of his blog. He does not have time or interest in monitoring the comment section.

Since this is not a church I don't understand your disapproval of comments made by the women who participate? I find GG, Robin and Mrs C to be godly women who know their bibles well.

It is pretty clear to me Stephen is not going to change and you are not going to do the simple things you have been asked to do either. That would be a serious problem from me in a church setting and still irratating here. It adds to confusion and that is certainly not pleasing to the Lord.

God is certainly interested in his word but he is also intested in unity and love and discipling the weaker brother.

I think your presentation of God's word is the issue for me. Work on the delievery and thanks for the well wishes. You should know that I am the type of person who sees the best in everybody. Constantly correcting everyone is not going to be effective.

Mike said...

Wow....really? I dont check for a day, and this is what took up the comments in the past 24 hours?

As much as I could write a 5 page rebuttal to the disruptions posted here, and quote many scriptures defending the thoughts of the godly people who are the mainstays of this blog, I have to refrain. I wont refrain from saying how discouraging it is come on here and read all the dissension and arguing of points that really do not deserve to be even commented on.

Scott, your amazing dedication to running the most informative place on the web for true prophecy watchers to come together in fellowship is genuinely appreciated, and it is a shame that it has to be derailed like it has here.

I had one comment on the last rant of troublemakers here, and that is to ignore, ignore, ignore. The more they get response (undeserved and unwarranted), the more they will continue, and the more arguing and straying from the subject matter occurs.

The only other other option would be require registering to be able to post. I have no problem with that, and no problem using my name. Unfortunately, it seems to get to the point that the fellowship and real discussions seem to be secondary to fighting off those who want to push their judgements and non-contextual bible quotes on everyone.

I know I dont comment as much as many 'regulars', but I do occasionally, and I am here almost every day....and I have appreciated the prayers from people on here for specific requests in the past.

I would hope that this infection that seems to pop up can be cured....whether it be by us as comment contributors, or through a registration (which I have no idea if that is even possible).

Just sayin....

May the Holy Spirit work in the hearts of all who choose to participate here, and may He use those who are genuinely working to further His Kingdom to lead those who may need guidance....whether they realize it or not.

Good points Mike. My problem stems from my childhood when my mom once told me," you would agrue with a fence post". I am getting better but sometimes I just can't resist. :)

I agree Scott does a great job! I appologize for detracting from the main thing here!

I find it interesting that Mrs. C keeps skipping over the fact that you never apologized to anyone when it was discovered that you completely lost it on some very innocent people recently..in a very shocking, non christian way. How many people (including regulars) told you how wrong you were to do what you did and you NEVER SAID A WORD. You acted like that never even happened. You like to bring up the past but not that little incident, huh...NUFF SAID

For EVERYONE HERE, both new and old, here is whats up! There has been someone posting here as anonymous for quite awhil. They refuse to give their name and they constantly annoy, harrass, and seek to create division and destruction on this blog. They attack everyone, including Scott. Who do we know to is the author of lies, devision and destruction? Satan, of course!
Look, I dont know if this person is a paid govt troll or just one of satans tiny little minions, but they are definately evil! I saw them baiting but I ignored it and moved on.
DO NOT TAKE THE BAIT!IGNORE THISBULLY! Eventually they will move on due to lack of excitement.
As I have stated previously, I believe totally that this person has a "religious" spirit. And I know, for a fact that this is one of the most difficult to cast out because the host NEVER wants it to leave. They love the power and the destruction it causes!!!!! I have dealt wirh these before :( Most Christians are fearful of them because they know so much verse. Its always taken out of of context and welded to harm a brother or sister or to keep someone from coming to Christ. They always take the Lords name in vain-not by cursing but by twisting scripture!
So everyone please start praying that this persons eye wil be opened to the damage they have caused and that the Holy Spirit will not give them a moments rest til they repent and change their ways! Because surely, this person is going to hell if they dont!!!!!
Also, I want to sa how pleased I am with the LOVE show/ towards Stephen! Now thats what good Christians do! We all know Stephen loves the Lord, and we all know he is a little wonky (arent we all in one way or another?) And I, and I'm pretty sure Jesus is with me on this, appreciates that Stephen is shown love by us!
As we get closer to the appointed day, the more we are going to come under attack. We need to practice avoiding baiting and working on the big stuff. So lets petition the Lord to take care of rhis little piddly problem and help sharoen our knowledge and skills!
Love ya ;)

We shall have to agree to disagree on certain issues - although I do find Robin is worth her salt and extremely newsworthy. Unlike yourself, I don't 'do' fence posts. I can have a nice chat, about this, and that, and am told I am friendly and approachable BUT I do call a spade a spade rather than a gardening implement. Then I do have the advantage of body language, and tone of voice, so my frankness is less ‘in your face’.

However, I do think it depends on the reader and their expectations how any piece of writing ‘sounds’. This is amplified when the information given goes directly against their point of view, in which case their own attitude interprets the text. As I haven’t called anyone a ‘son of Beelzebub’, or a ‘brood of snakes’, nor yet wished anyone to be ‘emasculated’, I consider I have been very restrained and ‘kind’. If only I had had the same courtesy. Neither have I ‘constantly’ criticised as I let the majority of faux pas elapse without comment.

For this reason I shall not apologise for stating truth succinctly, regardless of how it is presented, it is what it is, and my ‘kindness’ comes from taking the time and trouble to even bother to alert others to error imho, and sadly, there is a great deal of it about – just as Jesus said there would be.

P.S. In the 'casting of stones' Anon does have a valid point. Its as someone else has remarked, MrsC & co do have an accute tendency to 'pot-kettle-black'.

Ally, Mike. Caver and WV?

Do you consider that Jesus lied when, on the cross, He said ‘It is finished’?
Have you never heard of the Sufficiency of Christ?
Do you not realise that Jesus has taken authority over every principality and power – so we don’t have to worry about them?

The enemy is a compulsive liar and the worst of all ‘attention seekers’. If you are having problems with manifestations, I’m afraid it’s your own fault for encouraging them. You are obviously good for their ego when all you have to do is ignore them and ask your Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ Name, to get rid of the pests. That’s what it means to resist the devil, trusting God and the promises in His WRITTEN WORD by FAITH; NOT all this pathetic binding and loosing claptrap while shouting OUT! That makes them come back for more; they are making mincemeat out of the lot of you, and there is no need for it.

WE are to stand by FAITH alone, in Christ alone by Scripture alone. TRUST JESUS and stop this pagan spirituality and grow up in Jesus.

Leviticus 19:18 "'Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.

Matthew 19:19 honor your father and mother,' and 'love
your neighbor as yourself.'"


Matthew 22:38 This is the first and greatest commandment.

Romans 13:8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law.

Romans 13:10 Love does no harm to its neighbor.
Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.


Galatians 5:14 The entire law is summed up in a single
command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."

Glad to have you along Helen!! Lets get everyone going here!

Great verses GG....we can have a regular worship service right here...songs of praise, scripture to read and learn from, all done with love for each other, and for God.

My little posts here today may seem a little light, and maybe 'making light' of things...but there was a point. I felt very compelled to kind of 'step in' today. Whoever remembers me here knows I never type this much on here!

In all seriousness, this IS a place of worship, of fellowship, of joining together as the body of Christ! YES...lets sing! YES...lets quote scripture...YES...lets pray for each other....YES...lets remember some of us have different ideas what we think and believe....BUT, as long as we believe in the life, the suffering, the death and resurrection of Christ, and His atonement for our sins...that makes us all on the same team...the same BODY.

I say again, anyone who comes against the body with division must not be given access! I say again..ignore, ignore, ignore! Then pray, pray, pray!

Lets give this place of worship back to the Holy Spirit, and make an active choice to not let Satan trap us by going for the bait!

I am kind of chuckling to myself :). I know any time we shall be in the physical prescence of our God, Jesus and the HS. For what we went through today, Jesus may have to hold our visits near the tree of life first with a little chat to this group of his children and then off we go to meet with him separately :).

Stephen we love you Brother! WV we don't want to cause you any undo stress. May you sleep well tonight.

God Bless!!!

But for eternity!

Eccl3
For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:
a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace…

I perceived that whatever God does endures forever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it. God has done it, so that people fear before him.

That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God seeks what has been driven away

Moreover, I saw under the sun that in the place of justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness.
I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for there is a time for every matter and for every work…

A band of angels coming after me, coming for to carry me home!

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.
For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

Galatians 6:7,8.

Deut 29:29 "The SECRET (occult) things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our sons forever, that we may observe all the words of this law.

The ‘things revealed’ are written in the Bible. Pagan spiritual warfare is extra Biblical, gleaned from false teaching outside God's revealed Scripture.

You are playing with fire Ally.
