THE MIDEAST IS SOON TO ERUPT INTO WORLD WAR!

The civil war in Syria may be about to boil over and cross borders; as Turkey and Syria are fast approaching the brink of war.

Assad has forewarned the nation of Israel that "Syria will shower Tel Aviv with rockets if attacked by foreign powers".

The preceding threat against Israel shows that  Assad may launch war against Israel in order to divert the world's attention from himself.  

If other nations/"foreign powers" such as Turkey, intervene in what has become civil war in Syria, Assad may make good on his promise to "shower rockets" on Tel Aviv.

This tactic that Assad has threatened would successfully shift the focus from Syria to Israel, by making Israel the new military front.

In response to Assad's threats to shower rockets on Tel Aviv, "Western intelligence sources have reported that Israel reacted  with the warning of its own:

'If a single Syrian missile explodes in Tel Aviv, Damascus will be first to pay the price' ":

These very real threats appear to provide overwhelming evidence why we may soon see "Damascus being the first to pay the price", resulting in the fulfillment of Isaiah 17:

Isaiah 17:1 Behold, DAMASCUS WILL CEASE TO BE A CITY will become a heap of ruins.

Please see this recent entry for more details regarding this last days prophecy, wherein Damascus ceases to be a city and becomes a heap of ruins:

Syria is allied with Hezbollah and Iran, with the mutual goal of destroying Israel. In recent years, these allies have been fortifying themselves militarily, to attack Israel.

If Syria pulls Israel into war, it would give good reason for both of these avowed enemies of Israel to join in the attack, "protecting" their ally. 

Of course, they are fully aware that any act of self-defense by Israel will still cause the entire world to view Israel as being at fault.

They have long been waiting for justification to attack Israel, who they hate with an everlasting hatred that goes back thousands of years.

Important to note is that Israel is literally surrounded with many Goliath-sized neighbors, who want nothing less than her total annihilation.

Due to these very real threats, Israel has adopted a defense strategy that should make her enemies think twice before carrying out their desires "to wipe Israel off the map".

This strategy of self-preservation is called the Samson Option. It is an "alleged deterrence strategy of massive retaliation with nuclear weapons as a “last resort” against nations whose military attacks threaten its existence, and possibly against other targets as well":

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samson_Option

In essence, the Samson Option is a serious caution to Israel's many enemies.

This sends a loud and clear message that if Israel is attacked with any weapon of mass destruction (WMD), that it would result in mutually assured destruction because Israel would immediately respond to any such attack, in kind, with WMD's against her attacker(s). 

The "Samson Option" may well explain why in the course of one single evening, Damascus is destroyed:

Isaiah 17:14 In the evening, sudden terror! Before the morning, they are gone!

Seeing that the Mideast powder keg is about to erupt into World War 3, may many also see that it is time to release their affections on this fleeting world.

IT IS TIME TO PUT GOD FIRST AND FOREMOST!

THE PSALM 83 WAR WHICH APPEARS TO PRECEDE THE RAPTURE, IS SOON FORTHCOMING-

"U.S. sends troops to Jordan to monitor Syrian chemical weapons sites"

THE PSALM 83 WAR IS SOON COMING...

I believe that the inception of this war precedes the Rapture and that the antichrist is revealed at the end of this war.

Thus, once we see it erupt, the Rapture is about upon us.

CHRISTIANS, LEAVE YOUR LOVE AFFAIR WITH THE WORLD OR ELSE, BE LEFT BEHIND!

When World War 3 begins, collapsing the economy, it may be too late to become the readied Bride.

MANY will only cry out to Jesus because their world is turned upside down and all they have busily devoted themselves to, is instantly gone.

This last minute choice to finally put Jesus over the world, will only be because their BELOVED world is plunged into chaos.

It WILL NOT because they have loved and yearned for the Savior's return.

THE HOLY, OMNIPOTENT AND ALL-KNOWING GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED!!  

LET GO OF THIS FLEETING WORLD NOW, LEST YOU FIND YOURSELF LEFT BEHIND ON IT, FACING THE TRIBULATION!

  Lukewarm Christians are the "worthless servants", many who have been forewarned of the consequences, but still choose to hang on to the things of this world.

This choice of loving the world over God, is why so very many will find themselves, weeping and gnashing their teeth, with great pain and remorse.

"And cast the worthless servant into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." Matthew 25:30
