Today, the current drying up of the Euphrates River in the Mideast is another End Time SIGN and right on time with ALL other prophecies which are NOW in their places, ready for fulfillment. This shows how close this generation is to witnessing the fulfilling of ALL foretold events, including the miraculous return of Christ.
In the very near future, as the Great Tribulation period heads towards the end of its 3 1/2 year nightmare at the hands of "antichrist", then "the kings of the whole world" & their armies (Rev.16:14) [includingChina] will have gath- ered together in Armageddon (Rev.16:16) in the Mideast. [ graph below ].
The world's armies' (Rev.19:19) ultimate purpose in their uniting together in the Mideast will be "to makewar against Him (Jesus) who sat upon the horse, &against His army". (Rev.19:19). This final "war" (Rev.16:14,16) of Armaged- don literally takes place on the final day of the 7 year Tribulation period as Christ Himself returns. (Rev.19:11,19).
China & the "beast" (Euro-kingdom of antichrist) & "the kings of the earth & their armies" (Rev.19:19) will be com-pletely destroyed in a moment's time by the overwhelming & divine appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ. (Rev.19:19- Rev.20:3).
Right now, China is in its place prophetically. The book of Revelation clearly stipulates that in order for China to make its way towards the "place of Armaggedon" (Rev.16:16) in the End Times, then the "great river, the Euphrates & itswater must be dried up". (Rev.16:12).
This awesome soon-coming event will occur so "that the way might be prepared for thekings of the east" (China) to move their military personnel westward through the Mid- east terrain & into the Holy Land. (Rev.16:12).
Incredibly today, the Euphrates River is literally now ableto be completely "dried up" as predicted for the End Times. This is because of the $32 billion Anatolia DamProject in southeastern Turkey which began in the late 1980's & is projected to be completed by 2010. [see below]
Any 1 of the 22 dams already being built have the capability of literally "drying up" the Euphrates River & allowing China to cross into "Armaggedon", as the Bible predicts for the End Times.
The End Time stage is set TODAY...
