THREE NATIONS AT WAR

IN LATER DAYS
CURRENT
EVENTS, THE
PALESTINE
SITUATION, AND
HOW CLOSE IS
PRAYER THOUGHT: MAR 243.2 ~ Everything in
the world is in an unsettled state. The nations are
angry, and great preparations for war are being
made. Nation is plotting against nation, and
kingdom against kingdom. The great day of the God
is hasting greatly. But although the nations are
mustering their forces for war and bloodshed, the
command to the angels is still in force, that they
hold the four winds until the servants of God are
sealed in their foreheads. -----
Then the power of the earth will marshal their
forces far the last great battle. how carefully we
should improve the little remaining period of our
probation {Maranath, p. 243.3}
PURPOSE; The primary
purpose is to study the current events as they
relate to the middle east crisis with major events
that will lead to the Third World War, the
purification of the church and the establishingo of
God’s Kingdom in the war zone.
Introduction; ~ {Wake up! Trim your Lamps
the Bridegroom Cometh, the End is Here.}
Minds that have been give up to loose
thought need to change---- The thought must
be centered upon God. Now is the time to put
forth earnest effort to overcome the natural
tendencies of the carnal heart. {Mar 243.4}
WHEN WILL THE SEALING BE
OVER?
MAR 242.2 ~ The sealing time is very short, and will soon be
over. Now is the time, while the four angels are holding the four
winds, to make our calling and election sure.
MAR 243.5 ~ Just before we entered it [the time of of trouble],
we all received the seal of the living God. Then i saw the four
angesl cease to hold the four winds. and l saw famine, pestilence
and sword, nation rose against nation, and the whole world was
in confusion.
18MR 177.3 ~ Soon the four winds of heaven wiil be loosed, and
in every part of the globe there will be dissension, strife, war ,
bloodshed. Satan is stirred with intensity from beneath. The
power of God will be the defense of His people until their
warning message will have been proclaimed to every nation,
TWO ARMIES IN A
CONFLICT
From the implication that “the four winds” are to blow
and the four angels are to hurt as soon as the servants of
God are sealed, is seen looming the “time of trouble”
such as never was (Dan. 12:1).Moving from the four
corners of the compass, the winds must represent a
worldwide disturbance of some kind. Very obvious it is,
too, that their blowing and the angels’ hurting, represent
two armies in conflict. The wind’s blowing is, of course,
the anger of the nations against the saints; and the
angels’ hurting is doubtless the Lord’s judgment falling
upon His enemies. In other words, the angels and the
winds together represent a trouble between God and the
That the angels’ holding the winds does not denote their
restraining the nations from warring among themselves,
is made clear by the fact that the winds were not held
from clashing wind against wind (nation against nation),
but rather from hurting the earth, the sea, and the
trees. Moreover, that the nations from the north and
from the south, from the east and from the west, were
engaged in World War I, and also in World War II,
although the 144,000 are not yet sealed, is another
irrefutable evidence that the trouble which is forecast
by the winds’ blowing and the angels’ hurting, is yet
future. That it is a global disturbance, is again seen in
the fact that the winds on the one hand, and the angels
on the other hand, are to trouble both earth and sea.
THE EARLY DAYS OF UKRAINE, AND THE
RUSSIANS
Finally, since we now see that the wars of the Mohammedans with
the Christian nations are mentioned in prophecy with special
emphasis that Egypt and Palestine are, during the time of the
end, ceded to the king of the north as part of his trophies, these
kings are positively identified. And the fall of the one with the
growth of the other after the Treaty of Corlowitz in 1699 by which
“Mustapha II agreed to renounce his claims upon Transylvania
and a large part of Hungary, to give up Marea to Venetians to
restore Polalia and the Ukraine to Poland, and to leave Azov to the
Russians” (Twentieth Century Cyclopaedia, Vol. 6, pg. 247)
--- certainly establishes the beginning of the time of the end. {2TG
42, pg.26.1}
WHAT IS THE SOURCE OF RUSSIA’S
DISPUTE WITH NATO?
Russian leaders have long been wary of
the eastward expansion of NATO,
particularly as the alliance opened its
doors to former Warsaw Pact states and
ex-Soviet republics in the late 1990s
(the Czech Republic, Hungary, and
Poland) and early 2000s (Bulgaria,
Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania,
Slovakia, and Slovenia). Their fears
grew in the late 2000s as the alliance
stated its intent to admit Georgia and
For the Kremlin, the notion that Ukraine, a pillar of the
Soviet Union with strong historic ties to Russia, would
join NATO was a red line. “No Russian leader could stand
idly by in the face of steps toward NATO membership for
Ukraine. That would be a hostile act toward Russia,”
Putin warned U.S. Under secretary for Political Affairs
William J. Burns, who is now director of the CIA, in the
weeks leading up to NATO’s 2008 Bucharest
Summit.Although NATO did not announce a formal
membership plan for Ukraine and Georgia at the
Bucharest Summit, the alliance did affirm “that these
countries will become members of NATO,” and it
extended formal invitations to accession talks to Albania
and Croatia, which became members in 2009. NATO
NAHUM’S PROPHECY
Though Nahum predicts the “fall of Assyria” in
connection with
“he that dasheth in pieces,” it does not say that he that
dashes in
pieces is himself to finish off Assyria, as one would
naturally be
inclined to conclude. It is now seen, though, that he that
dasheth
in pieces, himself was only to break or cause to be
broken in
pieces not only the allied nations, but his own nation,
IN
WORLD WAR 11
~To “recount his worthies” implies that the
number of worthies – captains and generals
and other mighty men along with his fine army
– is diminishing and hence the need of
recounting, and that “his worthies” are to
stumble in their walk; that is they are to make
some kind of a blunder on their march to
victory and cause them to fall. And this is
exactly what happened: Hitler’s army
stumbled by waging war against Russia while
he was in war with Great Britain. That critical
moment of his career was Hitler’s greatest
folly. England was just about to give up, but
the German army pulled away and went to
fight Russia! And, too, the fall of his worthies
dasheth in pieces, showing that he is out of the way. Add
to this fact the truth that the war has split the whole
world – practically all nations and peoples – into opposing
chips of all sizes, and we have solid anchors to the proof
that World War II is Nahum’s war, and that Hitler is the
one whom inspiration entitled “he that dasheth in pieces.”
Indeed, he divided the nations and peoples so that so far
no one has been able to weld them together. --{Tr 14, pg.
53.1}

~Furthermore, by the outcome of the war, England


actually has not won. Yes, she has lost far beyond what
she would have lost had she let Hitler have what he
wanted in the first place – only a part of Poland. -
~As far as Inspiration is concerned,
World War II has not ended. --{Tr 15,
pg. 54.2}
~This in itself is evidence enough that
the world now, during this period of
international unrest such as it has
never before had – unrest that is
caused by every existing element – is
to give birth to something.
~As so far as we see it now, all the
things of which we read in Tracts No.

~World War II, the conflict that involved
virtually every part of the world during the
year 1939 - 45. The principal belligerents
were the Axis powers - Germany, Italy, and
Japan - and the Allies - France, Great Britain,
the USA, the Soviet Union, and, to a lesser
extent, China. The war was in many respect a
continaution, after an uneasy 20 year hiatus,
of the disputes left unsettled by World War 1.
The 60,000,000 - 80,000,000 deaths incurred
in World II make it the bloodiest Conflict, as
THE TWO BELLIGERENT POWER AT
WAR
While envisioning the might of these two
belligerent powers, Nahum at the same time
envisions the liberation of the church from
the Assyrian yoke, re-corded in chapter 1,
verses 12-15, and in chapter 2, verse 2; and
also the vengeance of God recorded in
chapter 1, verses 1-9. To facilitate the
reader’s comprehension of these three all-
inclusive aspects of this forecast. Now then,
who, specifically, are the actors in this
dramatized forecast? Especially who, under
the present or future set-up of nations could
these two belligerents possibly be? And have
they yet come to grips? If not, when are they
destined to do so.If we desire to know for a
FOUR CLUES TO IDENTIFY THESE TWO
BELLIGERENT POWER
1~ is that the war preparation takes place
when chariots with flaming torches “rage in
the streets,…justle one against another in the
broad ways,” and “run like the lightnings,”
2~ that the conflict itself takes place when
mechanized power is developed to such a
degree that vehicles are driven at a speed
which seems lightning-like. The war itself,
consequently, is to be fought by mechanized

reveals that it is the modern counterpart of

counter-part of ancient Babylon, and as

the modern counterpart of ancient Egypt.

~Hitler made his preparation for war in an era when the chariots
were raging in the streets, running lightning-like, and jostling
one against another in the broadways; that after the allies saw
Hitler’s military might breaking everything in pieces wherever he
took his guns then it was that they themselves begun to build
gigantic war machines; Hitler stumbled, as it were, by starting
war against Russia while he was still engaged in war with Great
Britain; although Germany lost the war, yet rather than taking
deeper root since the downfall of Hitler, England is instead
wearing away, and the crashing sounds of her empire are
becoming louder with each passing day; Hitler’s war has dashed
in pieces the whole world, and new chips and cracks are heard
and seen right along – that there are new partisan politics from
within and from without in every nation and people. --{1TG24,
DOES NOT
NAHUM’S
PROPHECY
TEACH THAT
ASSYRIA IS TO
FALL
COMPLENTLY?
~Yes, that is just what we understand it to teach. Very
evidently,
then, Nahum’s prophecy forewarns that World War II is
not as yet completed. The world itself knows that it is not,
and that the Allies, save Russia, won nothing, that they
would have been better off to have given to Hitler part of
Poland than to fight the war and then to lose out to Russia
not only a part but whole of Poland and with it whole
Eastern Europe. Moreover, Russia has now become their
greater enemy than was Hitler. They did away with Hitler,
but the hot war never completely ceased, and the cold
war was soon added to it. Everyone knows that the war is
not settled, and that peace has not come, that the war
war
against Russia while in war with Great Britain, and
by going after Greece and Egypt rather than
crossing the English channel when England,
unknown to him, was almost to give up. Thus his
worthies stumbled and never rose again. Finally,
Hitler disappeared and hostilities ceased. But
according to Nahum’s prophecy, and also
according to current events as broadcast by news
reports everywhere, the war is still on; it has not
actually ceased, but is only making a turn for the
worse, yes, and it is only a matter of time before it
that the war is over. No complete settlement with the
powers which fought in the war has as yet been reached.
Anyone can see that the world is fast getting ready to
resume the war with a mightier and final blow if
possible. Anyone can see, too, that the war was not won
for the good of Great Britain, but for Russia, and that
following the cessation of hostilities conditions have
caused the world to consolidate into two great and
hostile blocks, – the Western and the Eastern blocks, –
not to mention the wars and rumors of wars all around
us.
This happened because Great Britain allied with atheistic
Russia, a government that is against God and His church.
Thus Great Britain put greater trust in God’s enemy than
WHAT SHOULD ALL THIS
STATE OF WAR TELL US?
THE PURIFICATION OF
THE CHURCH IS
INEVITABLE AND IT IS
WITHIN THE PERIOD OF
WAR.
Nahum 1:15 ~ Behold
upon the mountains the
feet of him that bringeth
good tidings, that
publisheth peace! O
Judah, keep thy solemn
feasts, perform thy vows:
for the wicked shall no
more pass through thee;
Here in prophetic utterance is not only a promise to
purify the church when modern Assyria is being crushed,
---- They are enjoined to fix their vision upon the feet of
him who brings “good tidings” (message from the Lord),
who publishes “peace” (the peace of Christ’s Kingdom),
and who declares that while the powers of earth are
engulfed in a gigantic war, the wicked in the church shall
be cut off, no more to pass through her. Specifically, the
prophet exhorts all penitently to turn unto the house of
Judah (the latter-day Kingdom of Judah – Mic. 4; Ezek.
37:16-22), the church in the purification of which are to
be sealed 12,000 out of each of the 12 tribes, as
firstfruits.And he urges the subjects of the kingdom to
perform their religious duties and to keep their promises
In short, he admonishes
them to give heed to the
message of the hour – the
message which announces
the imminence of the
church’s purification, after
which, as the promise is,
“the wicked shall no more
pass through” her, for “he
is utterly cut off.” (See also
Matt. 13:30, 47-50, Isa.
WHAT IS TO PERFORM OUR VOWS?
Here we are told that at the time the war is fought
someone is to be publishing inspired revelations of
newly revealed Truth, the Truth of the Judgment of
the Living, that which is to forever separate the wheat
from the tares (Matt. 13:30), the good fish from the
bad (Matt. 13:47, 48), the sheep from the goats (Matt.
25:32), and the wise virgins from the foolish ones
(Matt. 25:1-12). These shall “no more pass through”
the church, declares the scripture, they are “utterly
cut off.” Thus urging Judah, the church, to keep this
antitypical atonement feast and to perform her vows
to God so as to be found worthy of escaping the
judgments of God. Hence God’s plea to His church is
now ringing throughout the land, saying, “Awake,
awake: put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy

AND HER GATES SHALL LAMENT AND
MOURN MEANS?

Read ~ Isa 3:25-26


25 Thy men shall fall by the sword, and
thy mighty in the war.
26 And her gates shall lament and
mourn; and she being desolate shall sit
upon the ground.
The prophecy of Isaiah 3 was presented before me
as applying to these last days, and the reproofs are
given to the daughters of Zion who have thought
only of appearance and display. Read verse 25:
“Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in
the war.” I was shown that this scripture will be
strictly fulfilled. Young men and women professing
to be Christians, yet having no Christian
experience, and having borne no burdens and felt
no individual responsibility, are to be proved. They
will be brought low in the dust and will long for an
experience in the things of God, which they have
Nahum we learned that it is the Assyrian war that is
being fought in the day these things take place. The
preceding verses in this chapter show that Zion is to lose
her men and her mighty because her people are following
after vanity.Since gates are not able to lament and
mourn, they must represent people, those who let others
come in and go out. Therefore they must represent
watchmen, ministers. This verse says they shall lament
and mourn. Besides this sad state of affairs, Zion is
described as being desolate. If she at that time is
desolate, it would mean that she is empty -- empty of
sinners and sin. All of this, you see brings us to the time
of the purification which comes also in a time of war. In
that day the gates will lament and mourn. {12SC 6,7, pg.

WORLD WAR {WWW1}

World war 1 also known as the Great


War, begin in 1914 after the
assissination of Archduke Franz
Ferdinand of Austria. His murder
catapulled into a war across Europe
that lasted until 1918. During the
conflict, German, Austria-Hungary,
Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire,
(the Cental Power) fought against
Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy,
Romania, Canada, Japan and USA
(the Allied Power). The cause of
WW1 was as a result of alliances,
nationalism, militarism, and
Thanks to the new military technologies and
the horrors of trench warfare, World War I
saw unprecendented level of carnage and
destruction. By the time the war was over
and the allied power claim victory, more than
16 million people dead, 9 million soldiers
confirmed dead and 23 milliom wouded, and
plus up to 8 million civilian death causes
including genocide. This was the beginning
of sorrows talked about in the Bible. World
War I was one of the deadliest conflicts in
ANALYSIS OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR
{WW2}
World War 2 was a battle
between two groups of
countries - the “Allies” and the
“Axis.” The major Allied Powers
were Britain, France, Russsia,
China and the USA. The major
Axis Power were Germany,
Italy, and Japan.Technology
played major role like tanks
and aircraft. World war 2 was
the deadliest conflict in history,
The first clue to this solution is that
the war preparation takes place
when chariots with flaming torches
“rage in the streets,…justle one
against another in the broad ways,”
and “run like the lightnings,” Nah.
2:3, 4. It is self-evident that these
preparations are made when the
thoroughfares of city and countryside
are congested with vehicular traffic.

The world sees communism as a hydra-

the nations are already, so to speak,
smiting their knees one against the
other while they look at it. Their safety,
however, does not depend on fear and
armament, nor on the man we elect for
president, but on God, on Him Who
holds the earth in space, and Who still
rules the affairs of mankind. From the
dawn of history till today the great
nations that have fallen, fell when they
were best armed and most
independent of God. This should be a

the fast unfolding prophecies in the Word of
God, the signs of the times thunder the

which have wrought his judgment; seek

the chaff,” before the fierce anger of the Lord
breaks upon the nation not desired. And while
this undesired nation is gathering together,
then it is that all the meek of the earth, those
who have borne the Lord’s message “before

serpent.

will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay
thy remnant.

Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come
from the north a smoke, and none shall be
alone in his appointed times.
32 What shall one then answer the
our study of the Bible we have come to expect the
heathen to be dissolved out of Palestina in the
Assyrian period. "Whole Palestina art dissolved: for
there shall come from the north a smoke." Smoke
does not creep along the surface of the ground, but
travels through the air, and as the smoke comes
from the north, the phrase suggests that aerial
attack will be waged against her from the north
and pass on to the south. It will mean that those
who now possess Palestina will lose out. The last
phrase, "and none shall be alone in his appointed
times," means that they will not be alone, for
others will be with it "in his appointed times." --

While we don’t know the exactly date

shifting geopolitical landscape. This
leads to a follow up question; how
likely is world war 3? As tensions

scenario that demands our attention.

Ukraine by providing military aid and

HARVEST
Joel 3:1-2
1 For, behold, in those days, and in
that time, when I shall bring again the
captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 I will also gather all nations, and will
bring them down into the valley of
Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them
there for my people and for my
heritage Israel, whom they have
scattered among the nations, and
9 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles;
Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let
all the men of war draw near; let them
come up:
10 Beat your plowshares into swords and
your pruninghooks into spears: let the
weak say, I am strong.
11 Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye
heathen, and gather yourselves together
round about: thither cause thy mighty
Joel 3:12-15
12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up
to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit
to judge all the heathen round about.
13 Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe:
come, get you down; for the press is full, the
fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.
14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of
decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the
valley of decision.
15 The sun and the moon shall be darkened,
16 The Lord also shall roar out
of Zion, and utter his voice
from Jerusalem; and the
heavens and the earth shall
shake: but the Lord will be the
hope of his people, and the
strength of the children of
Israel.
17 So shall ye know that I am
the Lord your God dwelling in
Zion, my holy mountain: then
shall Jerusalem be holy, and
there shall no strangers pass
From Joel the prophet the LORD,
continue to say to us that just prior to
such a seemingly impossible venture,
ther will be a call for war a World War
that God Himself will be drafted into. In
this particular war, we notice that
farming resources and equipment will
be turned into weapons of war which
will lead to world-wide food shortage.
in this final World War, a vast number of
the world’s population will become
ripened to be harvested into the Kingdom
of God. The reason for this is because
during this war all earthly poseession,
wealth and security will become
worthless, and God-fearing men and
women will have no choice but to cry out
to God for deliverance. That is why Amos
said “Multitudes, nultitudes in the valley
that there will be a World War which
will engulf all the world, three nations
will be engaged in this war, westen
alliance, eastern alliance and God’s
people, then during that war the
church will be purified and a kingdom
be set and a call for a final of soul
harvest.
