Turkey will join with Russia and half the middle eastern nations against Israel.
It is prophesized in Ezekiel 38-39
Im a complete novice when it comes to specifics in the Bible
So you are portraying this current conflict as the Biblical apocalyptical end times? Ive heard this so many times before, while not being blind to the seriousness of these events, don't we need more before attaching it to being in relationship to Ezekiel 38-39 or the actual end times.
the final conflict refers to Jordan...not Gaza does it not. So we can be on the cusp but until we have massive armies aligned between Israel and whomever in Jordan, northern Israel, or Lebanon is it still related?

Quote:11 “‘On that day I will give Gog a burial place in Israel, in the valley of those who travel east of the Sea. It will block the way of travelers, because Gog and all his hordes will be buried there. So it will be called the Valley of Hamon Gog.[g]https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se...ersion=NIV
12 “‘For seven months the Israelites will be burying them in order to cleanse the land. 13 All the people of the land will bury them, and the day I display my glory will be a memorable day for them, declares the Sovereign Lord. 14 People will be continually employed in cleansing the land. They will spread out across the land and, along with others, they will bury any bodies that are lying on the ground.
“‘After the seven months they will carry out a more detailed search. 15 As they go through the land, anyone who sees a human bone will leave a marker beside it until the gravediggers bury it in the Valley of Hamon Gog, 16 near a town called Hamonah.[h] And so they will cleanse the land.’
Actually, in Christianity there are differences of opinion on these prophetic scriptures and in large part most do not see the events of our day as necessarily indicative of anything but another war like any other.
Just to share with you a different perspective.

That's not to say we shouldn't support Israel, I happen to believe they are in the right, it's just to say Jesus may not come back tomorrow just because WW3 is here with Israel being the flash point.
I believe Israel is being used as the flash point simply because it's the one nation with the ability to be a flash point (many Christians will blindly support them and many Muslims blindly hate them: perfect storm). Not because they are "God's people".
