In this urgent message, "Israel, Iran, Russia: Bible Prophecy Unfolding Now? | Greg Laurie" Pastor Greg Laurie unpacks the complex and often misunderstood topic of end-times prophecy, focusing on current events in the Middle East and their potential connection to biblical predictions.
Laurie dives into the significance of the conflict between Israel and its adversaries, particularly Iran, explaining how the phrase "from the river to the sea" reflects a dangerous agenda. He connects Iran’s actions and ideology to Shiite end-times beliefs and explores the historical and prophetic importance of Israel’s re-establishment as a nation.
The discussion extends to the rise of anti-Semitism, the role of Russia, and how these global dynamics might be setting the stage for biblical prophecy. Pastor Laurie also offers his perspective on the order of prophetic events, including the Rapture and the Tribulation, providing comfort and guidance for believers in these uncertain times.
Discover why these events matter and how we as Christians should respond, not with fear, but with faith and preparation for the return of Jesus Christ.
