The nearer that Turkey gets to Israel, the nearer that Jesus will get to Israel
Rapture fuse is lit!
By Craig C. White
We are very near to the return of Jesus to collect his Church. It is easy to identify and to watch the events that lead up to Jesus’ return. As Turkey and their allies move nearer and nearer to Israel we can know that Jesus is on his way. Jesus will return to cause the Turkish led forces in the Golan Heights to retreat! Turkey is in northwestern Syria now. Turkey will attack Hamah and Tell Rifaat first (Jer 49:23-27). Turkish President Erdogan said that the Turkish Army could attack at any moment. Then Turkey will move south to destroy Damascus. Finally Turkey will lead the forces that are now fighting in Syria into the Golan Heights of Israel (Eze 38). I think that Jesus Christ will return at that time to fight against the Turkish led invaders in the Golan Heights (Nahum 1:3-8). Jesus will also take away Christians when he comes.
The Rapture fuse is lit! The nearer that Turkey gets to Israel, the nearer that Jesus will get to Israel. By the way, today the Turkish Army is 300 miles away from the Golan Heights of Israel.
Turkish President Erdogan is the Antichrist. He will destroy Damascus and then invade the Golan Heights. Jesus will return to turn them back and to take his Church away. Afterwards I think that a peace deal will be made beginning the seven year Tribulation period.
Craig,
got a question, I’ve been reading in different articles that God allows certain major things to happen on His Feasts, and that Jesus actually ascended as a first fruit on Feast of Firsts, amazingly I was baptized by fire around the same time with the amazing peace. Not setting dates of course since Feast of Fruits does have two days •Feast of First Fruits: April 7-8, 2018
Do you think the church could be raptured around those days, I also understand it could be at anytime, though it seems God allows certain things to happen on Feast days, his appointed times.
God bless you.

Hi Tib. It’s possible that Jesus will return on a feast day but we aren’t told specifically.

Hi Craig, I have a question about your post on October 31,2017. First, is it written in the Bible that Damascus will be destroyed by antichrist. Another person I follow states that Israel has been dropping missiles on Damascus because Iran is storing weapons, etc. there. Could it be that maybe Israel accidently destroys Damascus. Also, I thought that when Jesus comes back to take his church he meets them in the air not doing anything to antichrist. Second time he comes back is when antichrist sits in temple declaring that he is God. Please help me to understand this. Thanks

Hi Lisa. Those are very good questions. Let me start by saying that there is absolutely nothing in the Bible that leads us to believe that Israel will nuke Damascus. Jeremiah 49:27 says that God will “kindle a fire” in Damascus. The term “kindle a fire” is used a lot in the Bible and always refers to an invading army. So God will send an army against Damascus.
Jeremiah 49:27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Benhadad.
In Jeremiah 49:23 we are told where this invading army will be coming from; that is the northwestern Syria cities of “Hamah and Arpad”. Arpad is the modern day city of Tell Rifaat.
Jeremiah 49:23 Concerning Damascus. Hamath is confounded, and Arpad: for they have heard evil tidings: they are fainthearted; there is sorrow on the sea; it cannot be quiet.
Hamah and Tell Rifaat are in northwestern Syria near the Turkish border so it is simple to see that this invading army (that will eventually destroy Damascus) probably comes from Turkey. Today the Turkish Army has entered northwestern Syria and is specifically targeting Hamah and Tell Rifaat. Also Turkish President Erdogan has vowed to remove Syrian President Assad from power in Damascus. As a matter of fact Erdogan said that the sole reason that Turkey entered Syria was to remove Assad.
In Isaiah chapter 10-11 (and elsewhere) the Antichrist is compared to the ancient Assyrian kings. The Antichrist isn’t from Assyria (or northern Iraq), BUT the Antichrist will do the same things that the Assyrian kings did! The Assyrians conquered Syria and invaded northern Israel. The Assyrians came back thirty years latter to invade southern Israel. The Antichrist will conquer Syria and destroy Damascus, and then lead the forces that are now fighting in Syria into northern Israel; specifically, the Golan Heights.
Almost nobody has really explored what Jesus will do when he returns in the air. Most people think that the Rapture will be a quick, quiet event. I don’t think so. For starters let me remind you that before we can be taken up at the Rapture we will have to wait for all of the dead Christians to rise up out of their graves. I think that several passages in the Bible describe Jesus coming in the air in furious heat fighting against Israel’s enemies. Nahum specifically identifies the Golan Height. So I think that Jesus will scorch the Turkish led forces that have invaded the Golan Heights of Israel.

Craig,
Some of the prophets died centuries before their prophecies came to past. Then, hundreds of years passed and the prophecies concerning the first coming of Christ were fulfilled. I suspect that the same will occur with the second coming of Christ. The interesting thing is, that hundreds of years have passed since Jesus and the New Testament writers predicted His second coming, and just like the first coming there is still misunderstanding and unbelief. We are definitely on the threshold of prophecy being fulfilled. Wake up church! Your redemption draws near! Luke 2:28. Don’t be like many of the first century Jews who missed the first coming of the Messiah. If you get my meaning, the star is shining, the angels are singing, the wise men are saddled up, the prophet has spoken, satan is falling, and His coming is near. Are we ready?

Craig,
Daraa is pretty darn close to Israel, and 150,000 have fled. They are begging Turkey to come. Don’t they have to an end around or go through Damascus to get to Darra?

Is Daraa asking Turkey for help? Share a link. Daraa is located directly south of Damascus. Turkey would attack Damascus. The Syrian Army would leave Daraa in order to defend Damascus.
Remember that the destruction of Damascus begins at Hamah and Tell Rifaat. https://hightimetoawake.com/the-nations-are-disquieted-over-syria/

Most of those photos are about Tell Rifaat in northwestern Syria. Daraa is in far southern Syria. By the way the “locals” are Sunni Muslims who were displaced by the Kurds in Tell Rifaat. They are Syrians who have fled to Turkey.

That is why I was asking about Daraa, the Turkey media is pointing out the plite of the people of Darra to get at Assad. It seems that Darra would become a casualty of the main assault on Damascus. Sorry for the poorly researched info. We watchmen have to make sure we get our facts straight, but hey that is why we need you and your prophetic prowlous.
