If you're a Bible Student (or even if you're not) you are likely expecting Israel to be surrounded by her enemies and swarmed by the Arabs and a second Jacob's Trouble to begin...
Might I suggest that we expected the wrong thing at the wrong time?
The following links are some of the evidence proving we are past the time anyone imagines we are, prophetically speaking.
I submit for study and discussion the opinion that Zechariah 14 and Ezekiel 38, which Pastor Russell taught were synonymous, are finished or at very least at or near their completion.
These are not future events at all. The research is compelling. I will explain more in future postings God willing, but anyone reading even just the recent headlines can see plainly that we have entered into a new era regarding the state of Israel.
Previously I have offered an opinion that 2018 may be chronologically significant.
I also present as evidence Bro. George Tabac's fine video presentation "For This Cause" (which we have on VHS, sorry no link as of yet). As many Bible Students including myself, he highlights the verse in Matthew 24:32-35
32Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:33So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Brother Tabac suggested that the "generation" would be 70 years from the putting forth of leaves of the State of Israel on May 14, 1948.
That brings us to May 14, 2018, just five weeks away from this posting...
Please enjoy the compelling research and feel free to share it worldwide.

So, NONE of this ads up to a future Zechariah 14 nor Ezekiel 38 scenario. So I simply suggest we are at or near the completion of those two prophecies. Most think of these as future. However, I suggest that after Pastor Russell died, crown losers failed to lead Christ's people correctly in being prepared for this time we are in right now, which as previously posted, I believe is the Worldwide Anarchy of I Kings 19:12 expected by both Pastor Russell and Bro. Paul S.L. Johnson.
In my view, Bible classes worldwide would do well to install Pastor Russell as their elder immediately. More to follow, Lord willing.
