I don’t pretend to be a historical or biblical scholar, but this is my understanding of both Iran and Iraq. If this is correct, the Bible has lots to say about both, and how they will be used in the last end times scenario. People can scoff, but Bible prophecy is being played out before us in real time.


I could make the case the Catholic Church is the modern version of Babylon but that won’t go ever well on this board.

Awesome. Can't wait to get a picture of the beast with 7 heads and 7 crowns for my Facebook page. Because prophecies are literal and totally not allegorical.


Some imagery is symbolic, some stories allegories, and some, literal.

Every country is immoral and every person is immoral in his own self and in his own state. This is why a person has to be born again.

What does the Bible prophesize about these two areas in the end times?

I go to a small country church filled with mostly senior citizens, and in know way espouse the mega church ideology.

It’s the truth. When Jesus says we are sheep and he is a door, it’s obviously not literal.
When he says he will come back and judge all people, he’s being literal.
It is what it is.

This area has always been a conflict zone. Why is this the end times?

Lots of things. Specifically that Iran will be one of the nations in a group of nations that will attack Israel in the Last days

The funniest part about all of this is that it’s religious wackos on all sides that are part of the problem.

You have the wacko theocracy in Iran driven by their Shia Madi tripe.

You have the (nominally secular) Israelis still driven by their Zionist tripe based on some “God’s chosen people” fairy tale, and then Revelator and the other fundamentalist Christian wackos feel left out, so then feel the need to chime in too.



You best start believing in the never-ending Abraham Wars...because this is one.

I don’t know if this is the end times. Only that Iran will be involved in the End Time scenario.

Meh. An author two thousand years ago throwing out the names of nations that existed at the time isn’t really persuasive.

It’s not like they could have written about Russia etc.

This prophecy is different from Cyrus taking over Israel?
Genuinely curious.

What part of the Bible are you getting this prophecy from?

Engaging in some good ole judging. Nice. How confident that you belong to the very group that is going to be fine when you stand before the lord.

But they did write about Russia.
The Bible says he will put a hook in the nostril of the great bear of the north and force them into a conflict with Israel.
