The Valley Revisited

As many of you know, on April 8, 2024 the United States will witness the second of a pair of total solar eclipses, the first of which occurred seven years ago on August 21, 2017. The first eclipse swept downward across America from the northwest to the southeast, and the second will sweep upward from the southwest to the northeast, and together they will mark a big "X" on the country. Naturally, the watch community has been buzzing about it for a number of years now.

I devoted an article to these two eclipses about a year and a half ago entitled "The Valley of the Shadow of Death" (OCT '22) and in that article I examine the prophetic significance of the fact that the path of totality of the first eclipse in 2017 passed over seven towns named Salem, while the path of totality of the second will pass over 12 such towns, one of them being one of the seven Salems that was in the path of the first eclipse. Not only that, but the area where the paths of the two eclipses intersect is the New Madrid Seismic Zone along the Mississippi River near St. Louis, site of the three most powerful earthquakes in American history east of the Rocky Mountains in 1811–12.

 A Blast From the Past: 

The Valley of the Shadow of Death

Several months ago I wrote an article concerning the interpretation of the seven years of plenty that preceded the seven years of famine back in the days of Joseph in Egypt (Gen. 41). While it is widely accepted that the seven years of famine foreshadow the Tribulation, the seven good years are seldom addressed. In that article, I discuss why I believe Joseph's seven good years foreshadow the last seven years of the Church Age and end with the Rapture.

I also discuss several items that make me inclined to believe the seven end-time "good years" kicked off in 2017 and will end in 2024—which makes 2024 a worthy candidate for the year of the Rapture in my humble opinion.

4/16/2024 — From the "What a Great Idea!" Department...

Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz has a great idea to end the trouble being caused by Iran and her proxies as they seek to intimidate and ultimately destroy Israel and place the entire Middle East at the mercy of the Shia branch of Islam:

Topple the Iranian regime!

Hey, he's completely serious. And the longer one thinks about it, the more sense it makes—Dershowitz makes a compelling point:

"All we need is for the United States and Israel to get together and help bring about regime change, and topple the ayatollahs. The vast majority of Iranians would support us, and the vast majority of Arab countries in the region would support us."

Dershowitz argues that Iran has declared war on Israel, and that we have an opportunity to do what needs to be done to effectively deal with the situation:

"They can now help to destroy the Iranian nuclear arsenal...This is an opportunity that cannot be wasted and cannot be missed, and the world will thank the United States and Israel, the Arab world will, and the Saudis will, as well...It would bring about peace in the Middle East."

Dershowitz also correctly argues that toppling the Iranian regime would put an end to their proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah, which amount to nothing more than puppets manipulated by Iranian fingers.

But he also acknowledges that Joe Biden isn't ready for that:

"He wants to narrow the war, and I think the war ought to be widened. So many people in Iran, everybody would jump for joy if they could get rid of these tyrants who are destroying the lives of the people of Iran...destroy the Iranian regime and let the Iranian people live in peace."

To which I respond:

Gosh, Mr. Dershowitz, that's a great idea! And I'm sure Israel, with the full support and assistance of the United States, could knock this one out of the park! Ahh, but unfortunately the chances of that happening are a big, fat zero. No, not because Joe Biden is a spineless imbecile who can't find the bathroom. Not because it might damage the Democrats' chances of hanging on to the White House in November (as if the Republicans actually had a chance to win a fair election). Not because there's a real chance Iran could actually win such a conflict—the Ayatollahs and the IRGC would be no match for such an attack. I say that for one simple little reason that the world is strongly inclined to completely ignore:

God's Word says otherwise.

God's Word says we are heading for a major offensive against Israel that will include Russia, Iran, Turkey, and several Northern African nations that will be designed to completely wipe out Israel once and for all, but that will be crushed by the hand of God—the God of Israel that fights for His people, as the nations of the world will quickly learn.

So, forget about toppling the Iranian regime. As usual, God has a much better idea, and a much bigger and better plan for mankind than merely stopping the threat of Iran. So perhaps we should be studying God's Word and advancing the gospel while we still have time, before this event described by the prophet Ezekiel goes down.

I think that would be a great idea.

Because before it does, I am convinced we are going to go up.
