What Is Russia Doing In Syria? Does it have to do with Bible Prophecy? - Rick Wiles (Video)

In the previous post we watched a short video with Rick Wiles on the Jim Bakker Show talking about the mass migrations taking place from the Middle East to Europe. In another video from the Jim Bakker Show, Rick Wiles talks about Russian's troop movements and what is going on in Syria. (Tweet that!)

Rick Wiles says Russian is warring against ISIS and the United States is on the wrong side of this thing.

He goes on to relate what the Patriarc of a leading Cathedral down the street from the Kremlin said about America:     (Tweet that!)

"The wickedness in America is evidence that the day of Armageddon is drawing near." 

(Tweet that!)

Mr. Wiles talks about what America is sowing and predicts other countries are getting ready to deal with what the United States has been doing, quoting the Bible verse Galatians 6:7:

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

Rick Wiles says we (that is, America) has been sowing bombs, bloodshed, turmoil, and agony in other countries.

I'm not sure I'm in complete agreement with Rick Wiles for two reasons:

• Is he saying America should not have gone to war against terrorist Islamics? I would disagree with that. Evil must be fought and beat back relentlessly. Although under the present leadership we are not fighting to actually win that war.

• Secondly, isn't it possible a leader in Russian, even the leader of a very large and prominent Christian church just down the road from the Kremlin who has the ear of Putin, might have reasons -- such as political reasons -- to speak against America?

So I'm not sure how much to trust Mr. Wiles analysis. Do we believe what he's saying about Russia? Is Russian really on the right side? And could this Patriarc have been making a political statement (like turning people against America) from the pulpit? While I'm unsure what to think about these things, I do think Rick Wiles' message is interesting enough to share with you. Because he could be right.

The Entanglements, Attachments, and Bondages of American Politics

I think many people who hear about the Shemitah view it with much fear. But never forget God is good, kind, and gentle and He only increases the hardship on people when they refuse to acknowledge Him. (Tweet that!) Then He turns up the pressure in order to get their attention and bring them to Himself, which is a further manifestation of His goodness, kindness, and gentleness. (Tweet that!)

Another manifestation of a Shemitah judgment in America author Jonathan Cahn gives in his book, The Mystery of the Shemitah (page 241) is this:

"The judgment will release entanglements, attachments, and bondages within the nation and among the nations."

How might this look in America? The first thing that comes to my mind is our Politics.

In American, politics have become so convoluted they can no longer function. Over the years, some politicians have become so entrench that we will never be able to get them removed. Part of this includes the favors owed to them and the favors they owe. One example is the votes they have promised to give or get on certain issues. This why we can get nothing good done. (Tweet that!)

Many politicians, (dare I say most?) no longer vote for what is good for America or what is best for their constituents. Rather they vote on who owes who favors. It's the trading of "political capital" meaning political power.

What if all this owing and paying was wiped away?  Would this not be a good thing?

Don't misunderstand. I'm not saying it wouldn't be painful for our country. But to wipe clean entanglements, attachments, and bondages within nations would give us a chance to start fresh. And hopefully not make the same mistakes of "borrowing" and "owing" political power. (Tweet that!)

Related to that, at least in my mind, author Jonathan Cahn also notes on page 242 that a Shemitah judgment would...

"…wipe away structure of culture, of systems, of civilization."

I think of our structure of political culture, our political system, and it seems to be to be so entrenched in corruption now that, even though we have good people trying to make inroads, perhaps nothing will be able to make an impact soon enough unless it is wiped clean. (Tweet that!)

What if… God created a hard reset? What if it was time to start over? (Tweet that!)
