“A volatile world part #2”
by Art Sadlier
August 6th, 2007

While the world talks peace, it prepares for war! The annual worldwide production of the weapons of war is in the hundreds of billions of dollars.

A list of recent arms sale agreements include, France to Libya, $405 million. U.S.A. to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates, a total of $40 billion dollars. U.S.A. to Israel, new money, $9 billion dollars.

Russians to Syria in the billions, in exchange for a permanent Russian Naval Base on the Mediterranean Sea.

Russia and China are now conducting joint military exercises, in a new alliance called SCO, evidentlly an attempt to counter NATO and to gain more influence in the Mid-East.

There are at least nine countries today that have, probably, in total over 50,000 nuclear warheads. There are other nations and terrorist groups who either now have, or soon will have, nuclear weapons.

Nuclear weapons, and the material to make them, are proliferating. Over 150 Russian nuclear weapons went missing in the past decade.

Nations are preparing for war as never before! China is close to becoming a military super-power. Syria, Iran, Russia and Israel are feverishly preparing for war. America is at war and preparing to protect its oil supplies and its vulnerability to Iranian nuclear missiles.

Hezzbolah and Hamas are proxies of Iran and Syria, who are arming them to attack Israel.

Running parallel to this program for war is a peace initiative, such as has never been seen before. Talk of peace agreements, peace envoys, peace conferences, peace negotiations, and promises of peace, fill the news wires and the halls of governments and the U.N.

The undeniable truth is, that all of this peace talk focuses on one single thing, and one thing only. That single focus is on the world's demands that Israel give up her God-given land, the West Bank (Judea and Sammaria) for a Palestinian State.

The only possible result of that will be that Israel's enemies will have a far more strategic location and situation to attack Israel.

That is exactly what happened when Israel gave up Southern Lebanon. and when they gave up the Gaza. Surely noone believes that Hamas will not ultimately overrun the palestinian authority and take over the West Bank.

The western world will appease the Arab States to protect its oil supplies like an ostrich with its head in the sand.

Every time we turn around, we discover the prophetic scriptures describe what is happening in our world today. Jeramiah said, "PEACE, PEACE, WHEN THERE IS NO PEACE". Jer.6:14 True in his day, but also a prophecy of the last days in which we now live. That is a perfect description of this very hour. This was written 2600 years ago, proving that God is the Sovereign Lord who writes history before it happens!

Looking for His glorious appearing! Titus 2:13
