it sucks to see those kids burned so bad, and unwillingly hallucinating like that. War and conflict are a part of everyday life in some parts of the world. It is weird that i just woke up from a series of dreams this morning pertaining to the Armageddon. This thread reminds me of how Jesus Christ spoke that before the coming of the end, "There will be wars and rumours of wars between nations and kingdoms (Matt.24, 6-7; Mark 13,7-8; Luke,21,9-10)", "Orthodox Christians will be delivered up, killed and hated by all nations (Matt. 24,9; Mark 13, 9-11; Luke 21,12-15)". If i am not mistaken, Lebanon and Armenia hold a significant percentage of Orthodox Christians. "9) After this Jews will become Orthodox Christians (Romans 11,25-28)", and so forth. True the first half of the 12 signs have come to pass a long time ago, but what you have to remember is that these are events spread out through the life of the world, and thus cover a great span of time. Its the latter of the 12 signs that would be more significant for our time frame.
