Revelations and more

The subject came up last night. Ever since then I’ve been thinking back on the subject of Bible prophecy, and of those that have already come about.

My grandmother could almost be labeled a Bible scholar. I learned alot of what I know today from her. She knew how to keep it interesting to me, instilling that thirst for more knowledge of those ‘great and terrible’ foretold events. Even when I was in my late 20’s to early 30’s, we’d have long conversations about the Word that is written. It honestly could scare the living crap out of the average person, just being in the same room with us during one of these conversations. I think that’s why I’ve always found it so interesting. It’s written, it’s real – and it’s happening. No man, woman, or force can stop it.

The rejoining or ‘coming together’ of Israel in 1948, Israel regaining the city of Jerusalem in 1967, construction and availability of weapons that can destroy the world, the nation with the ‘great military power’ to the extreme north of Israel in the land of Magog (this is Russia), the nation to the far east of Israel that will have an army of 200 million (this is China), the one-world currency (the EU) that has already come about and put into place in many of the European Union nations, incurable diseases such as AIDS, cancer and new ones taking over on a large scale, and the massive quantity of earthquakes and floods.

The above are only a few of such written prophecies that have actually come to pass. There are many more that hold much significance. I realize this always has and continues to be a subject of intense debate. However, I have and will continue to hold strong to my convictions, and on what I myself believe to be the truth.
