"Although Obama is no Kennedy, Putin is no Kruschev, and the Russians are not advancing their political agenda in this instance, the template is otherwise eerily similar. In 1962, Cuba was America's "red line" as the Soviets were exporting their agenda to the West. Today, Syria is Russia's "red line" that this administration is intent on crossing."
Mr. Hagmann goes on to say that while we should be concerned about Iran getting nuclear weapons, the crisis in Syria has an even greater potential of leading to World War III in the very near future. Of all the problems that face the world right now, another global war surely seams like it would rank #1.
But World War III, with the potential of escalating into a nuclear holocost, does not even rank a close second, to the real crisis the world faces right now, and that is the immeneint return of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says:
"And I saw a great white throne, and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heavens fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the Book of Life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." - Revelation 20:11-15
As our Lord Jesus says in the Sermon on the Mount:
"Fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." - Matthew 10:28
Indeed! Please take some time to listen to a sermon that was preached in 1672, by Joseph Alleine. The Title of the sermon is Alarm to the Unconverted:
