Hey, thanks for the conversation.
> Israel
Yes, Israel is certainly a prominent player in the End Times scene, but everything doesn't hinge on them, as you hinted. Though I will certainly agree that until the pieces are in place pertaining to Israel, the other pieces won't move forward without her. We can be quite confident that God has foreseen all of the this, and the pieces of the End Times will move together in perfect fulfillment of the prophecies.
Barack Obama was not a friendly administration to Israel. Donald Trump was. As far as Joe Biden, it has yet to be seen, but the guesses right now is that he will welch on the agreements Trump made. Only time will tell.
Aside from the US, Israel also has allies in Canada and Mexico, neither of which have strong militaries. Israel also has diplomatic relations with dozens of countries, but whether any of them would come to her aid if she were attack is doubtful. If she doesn't have the US military behind her, she just might stand alone if invaded.
> So from the signs in the heavens...etc. (what you said)
The Earth is most certainly given over to reprobate minds, and that's only on the increase. As to the 3rd Temple, there are disagreements about whether that Temple is literal or figurative. It is mentioned most prominently in Ezekiel 40-48, and it's unclear there whether this Temple is actually of stone and materials or whether it's figurative. There is quite a bit of debate on it, so although some look for that building, we can't rely on that piece. The Scriptures are unclear on it.
> In the mean time train up your children to take the shot.
I'm guessing you're talking about the Covid vaccine. Yeah, there's a lot of "conspiracy theory" Internet underground (CTIU) talk about it being a tool of the antiChrist to bring about the submission of the masses to the New World Order. I know that it's an mRNA, the first of its kind, so the jury is still out on its true effects. I'll be honest, though—I have trouble thinking that each dose is loaded with nanobots to control our minds. What are you thinking here? I haven't seen any evidence of nanobots, and it doesn't make sense to me that all these various vaccine companies are doing that, but the CTIU explains that's the case because it's being hidden from us. I'm skeptical. How 'bout you?
> As to worship. The satan has always desired it. So with the whore he got it.
Yep, but where do you see this happening on a global scale right now?
> To me the whore is the system
So it seems to me, also, and I think the AntiChrist (the Beast) will be its figurehead. Right now I see that system as VERY secular and growing more godless all the time, but I don't see the BLASPHEMY angle yet, especially not on a global scale. But, hey, I'm not able to see everything, for sure. Are you seeing this?
> They are sick,sick humans what they do for power, prestige, and freedom to keep doing their evil.
Agreed.
> So all these leaders and sycophants in all the Kingdoms of this Whore are riding this Beast.
Who are these leaders, in your perspective? And can you identify the AntiChrist (the Beast)? Who do you think it is? You think it doesn't matter who he/she/it is?
> He will come like a lamb with a really cool peace plan and all on Earth who agree will be very cool with it.
This is true. That's what's prophesied. He'll be a global hero and icon. I'm not seeing anyone who fits this bill yet. But if it's a SYSTEM, like "secularism," well, that's growing exponentially right before our eyes.
> with no proof of anything other then a feeling
Hey, intuitions count. Evidence counts, too, if these things, events, and people are historical, which I believe they are and will be.
> A feeling for a longing of seeing Him without these dark glasses on.
Amen. What a day of rejoicing that will be.
