Has anyone been following what has been going on in the Middle East? Has anyone been curious about how it relates to the Bible and prophecies that still need to be fulfilled? Thoughts please.

I pretty much follow what's going on in the Middle East. There have always been things going on there, but it seems different now. Israel is in much danger and no one seems to know it.
The only two prophecies that stick in my mind is that the entire world will turn against Israel and there will be a war to end all wars on the plane of Armageddon.
Prophecies are hard to understand and harder still to agree upon, but I do think we are in the last days.
Welcome to myLot! Good discussion.

I have done studies in Daniel and Revelaton. I also have a book on prophecies throughout the Bible and You would be amazed that at least a quarter of the Bible has some sort of prophecy. Been really looking into the War of Gog and Magog and what is happening over in the Middle East right now.
I also find it amazing how much of the promised land has been taken away from Israel.

I have been following events in the Middle-East. I don't take the Bible completely literally so I am not sure about the accuracy of the prophecies.
One problem I have with this is whose interpretation of the prophecies to 'believe' I think it is an interesting study but I don't place a lot of belief in any one interpretation.

The thing with prophecies is look at the different interpretations and back it up with other scripture references throughout the Bible. There are some prophecies that hae alreay happened at that is a good place to start in to getting a better understanding of what God intented.

Explain to me then how the prophecies concerning Israel would become a state and certain countries would line up against Israel like Iran and Russia for example. Also explain Daniel and how the 4 gentile nations that took over israel. First babylon, medo-persian, then greece and finally the Roman Empire. There are so many prophecies that are for interpretation especially in revelation but others are more black and white and aren't vague at all.

I believe that Biblical prophecies are the most accurate.

There had been choas, violence and massacre happened lately in that region, various competing forces are in for the real battle to establish their own base and achieve own political or religion agenda. Many battle will go on for some time until the end of time. Whether the biblical prophecy will fulfill or not is yet for us to see, i will hold on to the conclusion and witness the on going events with an open mind and not jump to final conclusion too soon, it is a complicated issue and region for anyone to fully grab the present situation quickly.

I'm aware of the happening in The Middle East not just middle East but the world. The melting of the Iceberg(it's really fast), the erupting of the old Volcanoes (they awake now). every Month Earthquakes (simultaneous Earthquake every continents around the world). Typhoons, hurricane and many other disastrous mother nature still haunting us. 6 typhoons are coming in my country and every week we have Earthquakes but I am glad and very fortunate that GOD protected my family and my city where I lived.
The issues of the Vatican. The Pope itself admitted there's are many big fish inside the Roman Catholic Church he urges many believers that we should stand our faith no matter what.It really concerns me because it's also stated in the Book of Revelation/Apocalypse what must be happen so soon and it's very clear how it will end. And if this will happen we know that our king is coming.
The increasing of the unemployed people in UK. Increasing crimes, violence and diseases There's been so many changes, just a blink of our eyes....its really happening....the days are shortened the time is so fast...It's really extreme...It's really terrible..Horror days of human existence...

I've been observing the events of in the middle east especially the ongoing conflicts between Israel and Arab countries. This is likely related to the Bible prophecy stated in the book of Daniel/Isaiah and Revelation. I believe Russia is not yet participating, but she will be one day involved.
Jesus Christ is coming very soon.
