Dear All:
We're all familiar with 1968 prophecy by 90 year old woman in Norway. According to this prophecy:

1. The Third World War will break out before the coming of Jesus.
2. The Third World War will begin in a way no one would have anticipated - and from an unexpected place.
3. The Third World War will be ended with a nuclear atom bomb and be a short war.

We know that a tension is very explosive now between China and Japan over an island called Senkaku (Diaoyutai) and they are on the brink of war. Who would have anticipated this could happen? If a war breaks out, it's very possible that it could be spread to the ME war and the Third World War. It could be a fulfillment of her prophecy.

It's very near and see you soon,

Elliot

Well, here is the translation of the two phrases that I think have connection with your writing.

1) "Just before Jesus came and seriousness broke loose, there was an ease of tension that we never had before. There was peace and peace was to last for some time. During this period of peace was disarmament in many countries, also in Norway, and we were not prepared this time either when it came. WW3 would begin in a way that no one had expected, and from a completely unexpected place. "

2) "As tears streamed down the old lady, and she said: I can not see it, but you'll see it. Suddenly, Jesus will come and WW3 breaks out. There will be a short war. All of the war that I experienced before is only child's play compared to this. And it will be ended with a nuclear bomb. "

Hopefully this is a correct translation. I did my best.

From the first sentence it seams like WW3 comes first, then Jesus. And in the second sentence Jesus comes first and the WW3 happens immediately thereafter. That is how I read it. Anyone else with a comment on that?

Just for the record Emanuel Minos, who wrote down this vision and later published it, is a well respected minister who also is given prophetic words. He is now 87 years old.

Well I guess if you can start a war for less than some small islands, which they are arguing about. Suddenly one of them could willingly or by a mistake shoot down one of those fishing ships an then it all starts.

In another vision I read once, this was also Norwegian, the rapture happened first, then there was talks about possible war on the radio.
I do not know,

My understanding from memory is that it isn't the islands which are desirable, but the oil fields surrounding them. China told their military to prepare for war yesterday, but today they seem to be thinking it'd be simpler to dump the hundreds of billions of dollars of Japanese Bonds they own to destroy the Japanese economy rather than going to the trouble of fighting a military battle. Which doesn't make me happy about all the Chinese products sold through Walmart and their owning who knows how much US debt.

Avi Lipkin was on Prophecy in the News today (yesterday?) and said he doesn't expect China to destroy the US, because they need us so they can make things for Walmart and keep their own economy going.

I'm not saying all his ideas are likely, but I think he has a point about China needing us.
