Per Sean Osborne - Eschatology Today - April 5, 2022 Invading Russian forces are sending many tons of plunder and spoils stolen from Ukrainian civilians. This plunder and spoil was taken to Belarus where it has been sold. It is also being sent directly to towns in Russia where the Russian forces are based. Sound like a familiar prophetic theme from Ezekiel 38? This is my way of strongly suggesting that a word-for-word study of Ezekiel 38:4-13 in the Lexicon or Concordance of your choice be done to fully understand the prophetic message. May the Holy Spirit guide you. It's not so much about an invasion of Israel, as it is about the people and their possessions - just as it is today in Ukraine. For me, from the get-go, it has always been the opening words of verse 4... "I will turn the back..." Turn back? From where and from what. It's the Hebrew word shoob that is key, and it was taken literally to mean "to turn back or backward, repel, defeat, repulse, hinder, reject, refuse." This spoke to me of a direct military action north of Israel, and immediately prior to the military action against Israel. Then the time comes for the "hooks" to turn Gog and the armies around and drag them to Israel... as in ancient times one would use hooks in a nose ring to lead cattle to slaughter. A brief history lesson. Except for the apartheid regime of South Africa, economic sanctions have never removed a criminal regime (regime change) from power. Only successfully waged kinetic war has achieved regime change. Short of war, death, assassination or a coup d'etat Vladimir Putin will not be removed from power unless God does it by His means. The biggest news yet to come out of the horror of Russia's invasion of Ukraine... it may breathe new life in the Israeli EastMed pipeline project! - Fair Use - Russia attack on train station in eastern Kramatorsk leaves dozens dead, officials say: Russian troops attacked a rail station in Kramatorsk in eastern Ukraine Friday morning, leaving more than 39 dead and more than 100 hurt, local officials said. The station was being used by civilians trying to evacuate and is the latest evidence that Russians are deliberately targeting civilians. https://www.foxnews.com/live-news/ukraine-russia-live-updates-04-08-2022 The USA military killed over 30,000 civilians in Mosul, Iraq just a few years ago but who remembers the Kurds anyway? (Sarcasm) Not justifying what the Russians did, if true it's a horrendous crime, but the USA government are the masters of spin and propaganda, as we all know. Can't wait for Jesus to come back and absolutely clean house of this wicked world. Amen, Arthur! As Vladimir Putin Is Spotted With The Russian ‘Nuclear Football’ While Attending A Funeral, Germany Is Massively Ramping Up Their War Machine Production: The visible presence of a top military officer carrying the launch apparatus for the Kremlin’s strategic missiles is thought to be a chilling sign that warmongering Putin could deploy devastating nuclear weapons. The images come seven weeks after the leader put his nuke weapons on alert after lashing out at the NATO alliance over what he claimed were ‘aggressive’ sanctions. On the last Saturday in February, Chancellor Olaf Scholz gathered in Germany with his top advisers in his vast, glass-walled office to ramp with their war machine as Vladimir Putin was seen attending a Moscow funeral today surrounded by military guards carrying Russia’s secret nuclear football briefcase. If you consider yourself a student of history, then you well know that the ramp-up to both world wars happened with virtually the same players, and progressed in very much the same way, nearly identical. What we are watching now, as Germany remilitarizes for the first time since 1945, with Putin carrying the ‘nuclear football’ with him wherever he goes, with Europe on standby, to me is very reminiscent of how World War I and II came to be.
