More "Rumors of Wars"

Comment on this article

“North Korea threatened Thursday to bolster its war capability and conduct a fourth nuclear test to cope with what it calls U.S. hostility that led to the approval of a landmark U.N. resolution on its human rights violations… to refer the North’s rights situation to the International Criminal Court” which could lead to North Korea’s absolute leader Kim Jong Un being targeted as a criminal in the coming weeks (Reuters, November 20, 2014). Experts believe that North Korea is bluffing, but, North Korea is also unpredictable. They already tested nuclear devices in 2006, 2009 and 2013 which have invited previous sanctions (ibid.). 

This latest threat by North Korea only adds to the increasing polarization between Asia and the West, and Russia and China fall on the side opposite the majority of Western nations. Bible prophecies have long warned that a powerful group of nations referred to as the “kings of the East” will clash with a European Beast power at the very end of the age (Revelation 16:12; Daniel 11:44). These kings will combine forces to muster a 200 million-man army that will fight against the Beast (Revelation 9:13-19). As time goes on, we will see more indications that this alliance in the east is taking root.
