Rapture InSight
This is a study in the Rapture and related prophecies. The study is based on the King James Version (KJV) which is the best translation bar none.
The study also uses the Greek (New Testament and the Septuagint Scriptures) and the Hebrew Scriptures.
Iran Update
So far the Israeli-American attack on Iran is producing remarkable results. 08 April, 2026 Iran agreed to a ceasefire which they broke within minutes by launching missiles against Israel.
So far the Trump-Netanyahu plan to eliminate Iran's ability to wage a significant war has worked. The question is: how far will they go?
They are not going to land troops with the intention of occupation in the manner of Iraq or Afghanistan. This is because Trump does not want this and Israel cannot afford it; however, the biggest reason is that Iran survives the Psalm 83 war meaning this war. We know this because Iran (Persia) is listed in the Ezekiel 38/39 war that follows. We also know that the Russia/Ukraine war will end. Ezekiel lists Russia (Gog, Chief Prince of Magog) as leading the Ezekiel 38/39 war.
At some point Iran will sign a peace treaty to gain time and resources to rebuild their military. This is called hudna. If they do not make a deal they cannot fulfill their part of the Ezekiel war. Most likely they will trade oil for weapons with China as Russia is having enough trouble supplying itself to fight the war in Ukraine. This is another reason for Iran to settle; they need to ship oil through the Straits of Hormuz to Asia.
The world has lined up with Bible prophecy such that we can predict with near 100% accuracy the events in the near future. Knowing that this bit of prophecy--the Psalm 83/Obadiah war--is happening in our lifetime gives proof to the prophecy coming up--the Ezekiel 38/39 war. The Antichrist will be revealed after that--probably because of that war. We know the Rapture occurs before the rider of the White Horse is sent forth and this rider is probably the Antichrist.
The Rapture timing has shortened from anytime in the next 2000 years following Christ's ascension to anytime in the next few years.
It's pretty nice knowing the future when the Rapture is sure.
It's not so nice knowing you are left behind in a world filled with unrestrained violence and unrelenting catastrophes.
The Iran conflict is proving that God has it in hand. Respond to Him with faith.

The Iran War Reprise
Nothing has occurred to change the fact that the Iranian conflict is related to the Psalm 83/Obadiah war. Iran is a sponsor of and provides training to the terrorist groups attacking Israel and Iran does attack Israel. It is not listed in the ethnic groups of Psalm 83, but removing it as a threat is relevant to Psalm 83 and Obadiah. Israel cannot have the peaceful borders specified in Ezekiel as long as Iran exists as it does today.
This will not be a forever war. President Trump stated it would last 3-4 weeks and it is, as of this writing, day 16. He does not want a forever war; the US people will not accept another forever war; Israel cannot afford it; the US military has other commitments and the deployed troops are overextended.
Iran (Persia, Elam) will survive as it is listed along with Ethiopia in the Ezekiel 38/39 war as a Russian ally. However, it will be rendered irrelevant for now.
The US is not directly mentioned in the Bible unless you accept that it is one of the three types of Babylon mentioned in the Bible: political, economic, or religious. This is worth considering.
Iran is attacking its Middle East neighbours and has struck US possessions in the Middle East. Iran is bragging that it has enough material for ten nuclear bombs. Iran has ballistic missiles with sufficient range to threaten Europe and will soon be able to hit the US. These bombs do not have to land on US soil; an electro-magnetic pulse (EMP) will suffice to render the US hors de combat. These weapons do not need to be accurate; they only need to reach 30, 000 metres (100, 000 feet) altitude or higher even outside US territorial waters. Meanwhile, a missile launched close to the US does not need accuracy; it only needs altitude. This is feasible using shipping containers that serve as missile launchers (Yes, they exist). The US did an EMP test on 08 July, 1962 that disrupted the power grid and communications in Hawaii at a distance of 900 miles (1400 KM).
Thanks to Obama, Harris, and Biden there is no doubt that Iran has sleeper cells in the continental US. Encrypted messages have been intercepted from Iran although the recipients and content are not known. It would take an insane person to try to attack the US mainland. Unfortunately, the hatred for the US and Israel does range into insanity as proven by 9/11/01 and 10/7/23. It is a matter of record that Muslims all over western world have committed mass attacks using bombs (Boston Marathon), handheld weapons, knives, vehicles, aircraft (9/11), and any other methods of killing that comes to hand including hundreds of beheadings (watch the videos only if you want to be sick). Then there are the mass gang rapes everywhere. The Holocaust of 07 October, 2023 shows this to be true.
As shown, there are multiple scenarios where Iran and others can conduct attacks that could conceivably destroy the US in some form. Once Israel has the peace both sufficient and necessary to fulfill the prophecy concerning “the land of unwalled villages” it may be that the US is unnecessary to further God’s agenda. The Ezekiel 38/39 attacks against Israel will occur before the beginning of the seven year tribulation. We know much of Europe and Africa will be allied with Russia as revealed in prophecy. This means the Russia/Ukraine war must end soon. Russia does not have the means to engage in more wars at the same time.
Prophecy scholars hypothesize that a world crisis will create the demand for a world leader who will create peace. Most likely it will be due to the Ezekiel war in combination with other conditions. Whoever this demonic leader is he (most likely) or she will create peace by subduing nations without using weapons and make it so that Israel will build its temple.
While this current conflict involves Iran because of its multiple roles in attacks against Israel and the US, it is important to notice that Israel continues to eliminate the enemies on its borders. For this reason the Middle East conflicts are the fulfillment of Psalm 83 and Obadiah. When this is fulfilled and Israel does have peace the world will align for the Ezekiel attack. This in turn will create the conditions that begin the seven years of tribulation. The Rider of the White Horse will go forth and the Antichrist will be revealed (the first one. The second Rider of a White Horse is Christ.)
A careful reading of Revelation chapters 4, 5, and 6 proves the Rapture takes place prior to the seven years. The Church is gone; the seven years focus on Israel. It is the Time of Jacob’s Troubles.
The future has been revealed by God in the Bible. When you read this you know what is coming in less than a few years. As Paul says, you are without excuse.
Be ready for the Rapture. Be in agreement with God because He is in control.
Climate Change without Politics
First, climate change exists. It’s called climate cycles and is a normal part of the earth’s systems. The cycle length varies from a few years to hundreds of years to millennia. In short, climate change is a normal part of existence.
I am not a climate denier. I say again, I am not a climate denier.
That said, I do not believe in anthropomorphic (man-made) climate change. Why? I do not believe it because I believe God made the earth and everything in it including climate systems that include warm and cool periods.
Is carbon dioxide related to changes in climate? Yes, but the so called climate scientists have it backwards.
How it works
The workings can be explained using a simple experiment. Take a cold can of pop from the refrigerator and open it. There will be escaping gas, but not too much. Now open a warm can and there is a lot more. Now warm the can up under the hot water faucet. Be sure to aim it in a safe direction when you open it. Take another can and shake it vigorously then aim it at your spouse. Now duck!
These principles are understood by anyone working in the oil and gas industry. The H2S course is mandatory and includes the teaching of what causes H2S to release from a liquid: heat, releasing pressure, and agitation. Failing to understand this can result in a short life span measured in a little as one breath.
The relevant chemistry is explained in Henry’s Law which is explored in high school chemistry.
As a liquid warms it becomes less soluble to gas. Warm up pop and it goes flat much faster. Compare pouring warm and cold pop into a glass. The warm pop immediately turns to froth; the cold pop far less so. You can taste the difference.
Intelligent design and carbon sinks
When the earth warms seasonally or cyclically plants grow faster and bigger compared to cooler periods. This means they need more plant food. Without CO2 this growth is inhibited. Where does the earth get the carbon dioxide needed by increased plant growth?
Using a simplified model it can be determined.
70% (.7) of the earth is covered by water. 30% (.3) of land area is covered by forests. .3 x .7= .21 = 21% of the earth is forested. Forests and other plant life are carbon sinks. They take in CO2 during the day for energy releasing oxygen then release carbon dioxide at night consuming oxygen during growth. The net result is growth that fixes carbon in the plants and oxygen that is released in the atmosphere.. Unless the forests are burned down it is unlikely the needed CO2 will come from forests. The oceans are filled with phytoplankton that operates much the same as land plants. They convert CO2 during the day and emit it at night with the difference showing up as growth and oxygen.
Oceans are also giant CO2 reservoirs covering 70% of the earth. When the earth warms they release CO2 into the atmosphere (as described by Henry’s Law) to provide the necessary food for increased plant growth. When the earth cools the plants require less food and the oceans absorb the excess (Henry’s Law again).
In other words, CO2 FOLLOWS global warming and cooling. So called climatologists claim the opposite. They are either following the money or are persecuted into silence. A good example of this is Time Magazine and Scientific American, who claimed in the 1970s that the earth would become a giant deep freeze then in the 2000s, claimed the earth would suffer from global warming. Both hysterical claims blamed carbon dioxide. This is a hoax in the same way as COVID. Anyone disputing either is branded a denier and brutalized into silence.
To claim that man can significantly impact the climate is hubris. It also denies God’s control which is blasphemy.

Why is this Middle East War Different?
The current Iran conflict is different from previous Middle East conflicts for a couple of reasons. For one, the United States is directly involved allied with Israel. For another, this war is a part of a war that started 07 October, 2023. A third reason is the general attitude exhibited by Israel and the United States. Fourth, it is assumed by many Bible scholars that this is the Ezekiel 38 war.
Pertinent verses:
They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. –Psalm 83:3, 4.
And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, to take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land. –Ezekiel 38:11, 12.
A short general description of the previous battles is necessary.
Several Israeli wars have been existential wars. Another, the 1956 Suez War was, in cooperation with Britain and France, an attempt to take back control of the Suez Canal and drive the Egyptians back across the canal for security. Other conflicts have been reactions to a constant barrage of missiles and terror attacks against the Jews.
In every case the west, usually the US, has supported Israel’s right to exist and supplied weapons including tanks such as the British Centurion and fighters such as the French Mirage. In contrast, the USSR, later Russia, and France and Britain supplied massive amounts of every type of weapon to Israel’s enemies. In every case the West has held the Israelis back out of the fear that OPEC would turn off the oil as in 1973 or that other powers such as the USSR would escalate the conflicts into world war. Iran, with a few others, sponsored many of the antagonists that are directly on Israel’s borders such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
While the US and Israel has several common enemies in the Middle East, they have only occasionally joined forces to attack. Iraq, Iran, and Syria have all experienced the joint effects. Iraq was about regime change; Iran in a limited way because of attacks made by them or their proxies; and Syria during their civil war when Israel and the US took sides against a dictator who used weapons of mass destruction against his own citizens. This conflict is different. The US and Israel have joined forces with the goal of eliminating Iran, not as a country, but as an active hostile terrorist nation. Iran is a nation that is determined to have a nuclear weapon; it is a nation that possesses the means to deliver them to most of the western world. Israel and the US decided enough is enough and joined forces.
It is a mistake to assume this battle started on 28 February, 2026. For Israel, it began with a Holocaust on 07 October, 2023 on home soil. For the US, the violence began that day on US soil with demonstrations, anti-Semitic attacks, and attacks against anyone who protests against the protesters. Israel immediately attacked the Iranian sponsored terrorists in Gaza with more reprisal attacks against Iranian sponsored terrorists in the West Bank. Hezbollah suffers from reprisals after launching terror attacks against northern Israel. Israel has been fighting on all sides against enemies that scream, “From the river to the sea…” meaning that Israel will exist no more. Meanwhile, America’s left wing is screaming the same thing backed by violence against synagogues and any that support Israel. This war did not begin 28 February; it began with the October Holocaust.
The October terrorists were too successful for their own good yet their success failed in a crucial way. It is probable the Gazan attack was meant to be coordinated with other attacks all around Israel. This supposition is supported by the subsequent attacks within days of 07 October and previous attacks on Israel that were well coordinated by countries. Whether this coordination failed because of a lack of discipline, bad communication, or malfeasance will only be known later. The result is that Israel mobilized in time to thwart (mostly) the other October attacks.
For Israel, the Holocaust attack eliminated any doubt that they are in a permanent existential war that can only end if they remove all of the enemies at their gates. The Muslim success changed Israel forever; no longer will they restrict their attacks to retaliation, self-defence, or strategic defensive moves. They have removed many enemies on their borders and in Iran with the pager exploit. The joint attacks on the nuclear sites reduced the chances of a nuclear exchange between Israel and Iran. The elimination of the Iranian leadership provides the Iranian people a chance at a new beginning. It also reduces the sponsorship of the terror groups around the world.
For the USA, President Donald J. Trump and his cabinet followed the cries of the left that said, “We need to listen to them and find out what they want!” They have listened and the US leadership has taken the Iranian rhetoric seriously.
“We will have nuclear weapons!”
“We have missiles that can hit Europe and the United States!”
“Death to America!”
“Israel will be wiped of the face of the earth!”
President Trump listened. He found out what they want. They want Big Satan and Little Satan destroyed. He takes them at their word. There are reports of sleeper cells throughout the US and thanks to Obama and Biden there is little doubt there are terrorists that entered the US. He gave the Iranians warnings complete with timelines. He sent a message by arresting Maduro. Israel and the US struck the nuclear sites. The Iranian leadership allegedly murdered 30, 000 Iranian protesters. They continued to posture and threaten.
Already allies, the US and Israel decided to attack in a combined attack. The difference from before is the will of the leadership and the support of the majority of the people. It was decided that Iran must be changed, the Iranian protesters must be saved, and the threat removed. The change is intestinal fortitude now versus equivocation before.
This will not be an endless quagmire similar to Iraq and Afghanistan. President Trump does not want it; Israel cannot afford it; the American people will not stand for it. The Iranian people want regime change. You can tell that by how fast the burkas disappeared. The Iranians will handle it.
This war is NOT the Ezekiel war for a few reasons. The list of countries does not match Ezekiel except for Iran. The ethnic groups do match Psalm 83 and Obadiah. The stated goal of wiping Israel from history matches Psalm 83. The Russians are not yet attacking Israel and are not likely to as long as they are involved in Ukraine. Iran is not physically attacking Israel with the allies listed in Ezekiel. There is no possibility that Israel is a land of unwalled villages. How many of you are within a few minutes of a bomb shelter? How many of you know where your gas mask is? How many of you walk the streets with an army rifle? How many of you live with daily rocket attacks? Israelis do all of these every day. This is not a land of unwalled villages.
But it will be. God foretold it. In October He either allowed Satan to cause his minions to alter Israel’s leadership or He intervened with the Israeli leadership. We know He used Obama and Biden coupled with a stolen election (alleged) to place the leaders the world needed today instead of leaders too weak to remove the bad actors in the Middle East. They would be Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump.
Prophecy is fulfilled before our eyes and will be fulfilled every time we wake up from now until the New Heaven and Earth arrive.
God’s got it.
Be in agreement with God.
The Rapture is upon us.
People are saying the ME conflict is the Ezekiel war. Not yet, this is the Psalm 83/Obadiah war.
A blood moon, Purim, and an attack on Iran that may render the nation impotent.
Something to ponder.
