Putin in Power Points to Prophecy

The world is well aware that a tearful Vladimir Putin recently announced that he had won the Russian presidential election 'to the glory of Russia', but what the world is not aware of is what this means to biblical prophecy and the timeline of last days events.

Ezekiel chapter 38-39 gives us a picture of an attack against Israel that has never happened. This was given to the prophet as a vision of a last days war that would lead to God pouring out His delivering power, and it is thus conjectured that this could lead to a last days revival as the miracle of God's deliverance is plainly manifest to the nations.

A chief player in this scenario is referred to as Gog of Magog. Magog has historically been identified as referring to Russia, and the fact that Gog is named as the chief prince of Meshech (Moscow) and Tubal (Tobolsk) lends weight to this. The Gog is a tsar-like figure that leads a confederate of nations, including Iran, Turkey and the North African nations against Israel. Vladimir Putin has emerged as such a figure, with accusations of vote rigging adding to his dictator-in-the-making credentials.

He has stated in interviews that the fall of the Soviet Union was the greatest tragedy of the 20th century and his intent to form a confederation he calls the EU - the Eastern Union. This is little more than a rehashed plan to resurrect the USSR under the auspices of modern pan-European politics. With a six year reign ahead of him, it is a high possibility that the events leading to the fulfilment of Ezekiel 38/39 are about to kick off, and you can bet a newly 'liberated' Libya, a diplomatically-severed Turkey and a nuclear Iran are not going to be far from the action.

If you aren't right with God now is really the time to be as you begin to witness a world-wide crisis that the West will do little more than stand back and throw verbal condemnation at.
