Hello Ladylove and GraftMein
In my study I have correlated the 3 kingdoms that are subdued from the book of Daniel, with the battle of Ezekiel 38 and 39. In reading some UN documentation several years ago, I found that the UNs Parliamentary Association, which I believe is the acting law making body of the UN, has separated the world into 10 kingdoms. The documentation I was reading was compiled by a organization called Police Against The New World Order. The members of this organization are current and former police officers and current and former military personnel. They gather documentation that has been copyrighted or published by organizations that support, finance, and socially plan a world government. I believe the UN division of the world is the one represented in the books of Daniel and Revelation.
Looking at the groups evolved in the battle of Ezekiel 38 and 39, and comparing them with the nations that represent the land masses of those groups that are today aligned to do battle, we can isolated 3 kingdoms. 1.The USA, North America. 2. Russia, and possibly some of the former republics of the USSR. 3. The Arab nations, the Middle-East. In the battle, we see that Russia, and the forces with her, and the Arab forces are completely annihilated. Since their battle is against Israel, I believe I am safe to assume the USA will side with Israel. I also believe the ramifications of this battle will bring the conditions spoken of in the seal judgments 1-4 in Revelation Chapter 6. This battle along with the conditions caused from it, will destroy ¼ of the worlds population. Over 1 ½ billion people. I believe their will be a nuclear exchange in this battle. Israel will survive the attack though the grace of GOD. The US will be brought down to a non-super power status. Russia will only have 1/6 of its population to survive. I believe the Arabs will suffer the greatest loss in this battle. Ezekiel seems to give us two indications of when this battle takes place. In the latter years, and chapter 39 specifically describes a 7 year period were Israel will burn the weapons that are laying around after this battle. I believe this indicates the battle will happen right before the 7 year tribulation. Hmmmm lets think here, in the latter years, right before a 7 year period. This sounds like a good indication for me, as to when this battle takes place.
Now if this scenario is the prophetic outcome of scripture, how would it effect the world. The two most powerful countries in the world, or no longer. The Arab oil fields are wide open for Israeli control. The surviving countries of the world need the oil ( Europe, and the Orient ). The UN will surly take over the martial law declared over the world. Then the man with the plan to solve all the worlds problems is revealed. He has three subdued kingdoms that have caused all the problems in the world. He then places a king over each kingdom. They swear allegiance to him. He has a treaty in hand, and in one hours time it is done. A world government, made up of 10 kingdoms, all controlled by the anti-christ. The treaty gives all the land GOD promised to Abraham to Israel, which is most of the middle-east. This secures Europes oil supply to rebuild the world. Of course all of this was planned out a head of time, to force the world into this union, by the anti-christ, and his lackeys behind the scenes, before he was revealed to the world.
BUT, there is a trigger event that I believe will happen first, before this battle takes place. This event causes panic all over the world. Thousands of wrecks happen at the same instant through out the world. Machines suddenly have no operators causing tremendous damage. Unattended stoves cause fires that destroy many homes. The hospitals will be over-run with the injured. Panic will ensue. Insurance companies will be devastated. The stock markets will crash. There will be a run on the banks, and all this will lead to anarchy in the streets and a declaration of martial law. This event is of course, I believe, the rapture, where millions through out the world will be caught up.
With the USA and world economy now devastated, I believe the Russians and the Arabs will make their move on Israel. I also see the events happening now in the middle-east as the further alignment of the nations that will participate in this battle.
Some scripture to compare. The names of the land masses in Ezekiel 38 and 39, correlate almost perfectly with the names of Noahs descendents in Genesis Chapter 10. I find it very interesting that Genesis 10 made sure, (out of all the descendants of Noah that could have been mentioned), to include ALL the names that would be mentioned in Ezekiel 38 and 39.
Now I want to say this is only my opinion, and I am not dogmatic about its accuracy. This is just what I get from my study. How actual events unfold, we will just have to wait to see, and I do not believe that is going to be a very long wait. I also know that there are other opinions on the time frame of things, and we may not agree, and I respect that. I hope this may help in your studies, and I also would like to read your conclusions from your studies. Peace, but not yet.
