Trump targets Iran's Supreme Leader in first wave of joint attack with Israel as Tehran strikes back at US bases across region and at Tel Aviv

This prophecy video is pure speculation, with no Scriptural basis. Notice how many times Hibbs says, "What if?" He says, "Is it possible?" "If I had to guess." "Let's wait and see, we don't want to be goofy." Sorry, but Hibbs is being really goofy in this interview.

Hibbs hits on the usual prophetic cliches. "Jesus said there would be wars and rumors of wars." So what? There have been hundreds of wars in the past 2000 years, none of which were a sign of the end. "Israel is the apple of God's eye." How does this relate to any current events? The CBN interviewer cautions that "we don't want to play the game" of identifying current events with the Ezekiel 38 prophecy, but this video does exactly that, it plays games with ancient prophecies taken out of context. John 14:29 is misused to say that the Bible predicts events in Iran today - that is absolutely not what Jesus was talking about!

Hibbs cites Jeremiah 49:36 as a prediction of a massive Iranian diaspora that was not fulfilled until 1979. That is preposterous - there were large communities of Iranians in Los Angeles and other cities around the world long before 1979, including Chicago which I am personally acquainted with because I grew up there. Iranians are believed to have settled along the coast of East Africa as early as the 7th Century AD. There was significant emigration of Iranians in the 19th Century during the Qajar Dynasty, to territories ruled by Russia and the Ottoman Empire.

Hibbs believes that current events are setting up for the fulfillment of the Isaiah 17 prophecy of the destruction of Damascus. He ignores the fact that Isaiah 17:3-4 states that the "fortress of Ephraim" and the "glory of Jacob" will be destroyed at the same time. This prophecy was fulfilled in ancient times - Damascus was destroyed in 732 BC, the northern kingdom of Israel likewise destroyed in 722 BC. Do we really want to see the prophecy fulfilled again - Damascus and Israel both wiped out simultaneously? That is what Isaiah predicted here!

At the end of the video, we are exhorted to study our Bibles. At least that part of the video is good advice. If we do that, we will not be taken in by this dispenSENsational prophecy baloney by folks like Jack Hibbs.

And as world events continue to fall in line with Bible prophecy, Christians rejoice at the signs of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to bring in a kingdom of righteousness to a world filled with wars and rumors of wars. Some Christians who won’t even acknowledge the miraculous regathering of the Jews to their homeland as prophesied throughout the Old Testament after being scattered around the world for more than 2000 years are in my mind blinded by their own theology. We can disagree with some of these end time events but the scriptures will be fulfilled whether I’m right or you are right.

I completely understand that it is hard not to think in such a way! I struggled with it at times while I was serving on active duty and especially when I was in the region in 1986 and this was with the best Commander-In-Chief (Reagan) that I could imagine!

I do believe that at this time, our involvement with Iran are for good reasons, that President Trump is committed to victory and cares about the well-being of our service men and women who may find themselves over there. My main concern though is if things are not concluded by 2028, whoever proceeds President Trump (and I do pray it is either Vance or Rubio) may turn everything into an absolute "Charlie Foxtrot" just like they did in Vietnam, Somalia, Iraq, Afghaninstan, and so forth! The "Military Industrial Complex" is very real and my Lockheed 401K grew significantly following 9/11! My ex-wife got most

I was very idealistic believing I was there to fight communism, to "Kill Commies for Mommie and Ragheads for Ronnie" but foreign policies change and shift depending on which political party happens to be in power. I left active duty in 1991 and joined an active reserve unit for a while but when Clinton took office, I was quite worried about whether I would be able to obey his orders so I transferred to the inactive reserves and never went back! Long story short, you have to learn to be A-Political and realize that what you are doing is a "Job." It is not that you are loyal to a President or even the United States. The main place your loyalty needs to be is to the person who is fighting alongside you! I know that servicemen and women involve themselves both physically and emotionally and the top brass tries to paint a "rosy picture" of all the "good" they are doing and the people they are helping. Those who serve "in-country" are especially involved and is the reason why they serve multiple tours even after sustaining injuries that likely qualify them for medical retirement! I believe that these are the ones who end up getting really messed up and disallusioned.

Huk had a good idea about joining the Coast Guard. They are more law enforcement oriented (drug interdiction, maritime law, etc.) and aside from blowing up a "drug boat" ever so often, I don't see them being involved in any protracted combat deployments or whatever.

I agree. I’ve told him if he decides to go (just like you said) you’re gonna need to look at it as, this is your job and you’re fighting for your brothers next to you.

I’m walking a thin line with him because I don’t want him to think I don’t believe in him. It’s hard.

He wants to experience the Marine life, as a whole. He wants to kick down doors. That’s just who he is. :-) the kid runs marathons in town by himself. Goes to the gym before school and works at McDonald’s after school. He wants to be tested mentally and physically.

I’ll definitely talk to him about Coast Guard but I’m pushing Firefighter.

Anyway, thanks!

LOL. You'll never admit you've been pegged, but here ya go...




Rationally, that would mean at the source, which, in your view, is Iran.

Yeah. You're all over this action.

54 diplomats in Tehran in 1979 and 241 U.S. military personnel in Beirut in 1983 might have a different view on the topic.

Yeah, we already know you're too dumb to have done your own basic research and couldn't have an original thought that Little Nicky didn't think for you first.

Ekk still didn't prove his point, but at least he validates your predetermined conclusions, right, Duh?

You’re funny. I don’t have time to do all that. I don’t live on here.

What don't I understand, Duh? That blowing up Marines and taking American diplomats hostage was an act of Iranian friendship?

No I said you’re not an American. You wouldn’t understand.
