Sam Rohrer:
Hello and welcome to our first Monday of the month focus on national security and geopolitics and biblical prophecy with recurring guest J.R. McGee. He’s the extreme leadership group founder and CEO, and he brings to the program an experience strategic leadership over 33 years as an instructor in counter terrorism and electronic and information warfare. And he brings that here on the program along with the fact that he knows the Lord and biblical prophecy. So stay with us because we’re going to intertwine all of these things today. Now today we’re going to cut straight through the headlines to examine, I’m going to say is profound shifts reshaping our world. While corporate media, the controlled media, the media that is, remains obsessed with emphasizing distractionary and endless debates over climate models and domestic politics and things that in the end don’t make a whole lot of difference. There’s a far more urgent reality unfolding before our eyes.
Global climate fear and other politically planted fears are being overshadowed by and have, I’m going to say merged with converging prophetically foretold end times signs, one unavoidable sign being so great, and that’s global conflict escalating at a staggering pace. If you’ve been watching the geopolitical chessboard, even a superficial glance confirms what we’ve been witnessing is not normal, kind of like on steroids. And I would add prophetically and demonically driven steroids. The world is moving rapidly into alignments that were, well, foretold centuries ago in the word of God. But from the long foretold 70 weeks prophecy of Daniel, we’ve talked about that much, 69 weeks already stand fulfilled, having been completed at the crucifixion of Jesus Christ 2000 years ago, leaving only one final climactic week ahead, that is the tribulation period. It all points to dramatic atmospheric things we see in the sky and heavenly signs that are detailed in the book of Joel, in the New Testament book of Acts in the blueprint.
These become the blueprint for actually the moments of these days in which we are living right now and to consider what we are seeing through those things. So what we’re going to do here right now is we’re going to take a macro look at the current state of world affairs, trace the ancient prophecies and Ezekiel, Isaiah, Matthew 24 and others and linking them directly to real time conflicts, things that we’re seeing happening right now, military movements. And we’ll talk about some of them, very large ones. The title I’ve chosen to frame our conversation today is simply this, beyond the horizon, ancient prophecy, modern conflict, and we’ll end here, the blessed hope. JR, thanks for being back again. I look forward to this time of the month every month.
J.R. McGee:
Well, thank you Sam. And what a magnificent time to be alive as Christians. Who would have thought that we would be privileged to see the things that we’re seeing and experience what we’re seeing, the Bible coming to truth right before our very eyes? I can’t think of a more exciting time to live, Sam.
Sam Rohrer:
And what you’re reflecting there is a view, a perspective, and we’re going to build on that JR, because I share that exactly as you do, but let’s get into this because often as you do, you automatically intertwine your strategic military view, which a lot of people do not have, but also with a prophetical component. So here’s that question from a military analysis guided through, I’m going to say the lens of biblical prophecy, describe how you personally approach what is happening in a day such as what we’re witnessing today that helps to put, I’m going to say, many of the changing chessboard pieces into better perspective. That make sense?
J.R. McGee:
Sam, it does. And the way a good analyst works is you take all kinds of information from all different subjects. And a lot of people only look at the media and the information that agrees with their worldview. I find that I spend at least two thirds of my time looking at media and information sources that are different than what I believe. I tend to try to make sure that I eliminate the bias that I might have from my personal perspective and I try to balance everything that I’m seeing and hearing against history. What has worked in the past? Has this been accurate in the past? Has this source worked in the past? And then I look and say, does this fit with what we’re seeing today? Does it fit with the other known facts that I know to be true? And if that’s the case, how does this align with what we’re seeing moving forward?
I look at all these things and I try to figure out what’s happening. Is it lining up? Is it propaganda or is it truth? Is this something that somebody wants me to believe or is it something that the facts are revealing? And then I do something that most analysts don’t do, Sam, and I freely admit this and a lot of the people that I’ve worked for many years scoffed at this, but I take everything that I’m seeing that a normal analyst would look at and I also look at it through the lens of Biblical prophecy. I look and see what does the Bible tell me? If it lines up with everything from today and it lines up with history and it lines up with the Bible, that is simply to me a major confirmation that what I’m seeing is accurate. And the Bible can often give me insight into things that I’m seeing and the things that I’m observing that you would not get from any other perspective. It’s almost an unfair advantage, especially if you’re doing it against someone who doesn’t use that or doesn’t believe that. I have never once found the Bible has led me astray. I have often found that the news media and intel sources lead me astray.
Sam Rohrer:
Boy, I got to say amen, amen to that because it is so accurate. Let’s go on into this. Don’t have much time left, but what are some of the most compelling signs or I’m going to say undeniable observations from top line perspective that indicate that the interpreting of the events of the day like we’re talking about through the lens of scripture is the very best way to accurately interpret the events of the day. What are you seeing right now that is helping to say yes, yes, yes?
J.R. McGee:
Look at the absolute rise of antisemitism. Look at what’s happening with Jerusalem. The Bible tells us that in the very last days, Jerusalem will rise up and be a stumbling block to the entire world. It will be burdensome to the entire world. Jerusalem and Israel is a tiny landmass. It’s a small amount of people, nine million people. That’s not very many in the greater scheme of things, but yet it dominates world events. It dominates world media and it’s dominating the strategy and the economies and the activities of nations all over the world. Then you look at how Russia is aligning very closely with Iran. You look at how China is rising up in the east. You look at all of these things. It’s inevitable that even a blind person can look and see that something’s happening that’s not normal. And it all lines up with exactly what we see that the Bible tells us, even though five years ago people laughed about this and said “No, that’ll never happen. Turkey will never leave NATO. Jerusalem won’t ever be a major, major driver.” Yet everything the Bible tells us is happening exactly the way it says it’s going to happen.
Sam Rohrer:
And with that, JR, let’s go to cutaway. Ladies and gentlemen, stay with us. We’re going to come back. We’re going to go now specifically to the Middle East, to Israel and prophetic evidences. And again, stay with us. You’ll enjoy it. Well, if you’re just joining us today, welcome aboard. My guest today is JR McGee. And if you listen to the program at all regularly, we try to, and we generally achieve it, but the first Monday of the month, we try to gather together here on this program for a focus on some aspect of national security, geopolitics and the biblical prophecy. Today now, the theme, the title of this program is Beyond the Horizon: Ancient Prophecy, we’re going to touch more on that. Modern conflict, definitely going to touch more on that. And the blessed hope, we’re going to end up on that theme. Now in the first segment, we established a bit more of a macro, I’m going to put it, foundational perspective and JR shared how he actually proceeds looking at trying to put together the various elements that are happening around the world and here in our country as well.
And frankly, it’s a process that I have followed as well. And it puts right in the middle of it, the nation of Israel and the broader Middle East that we know we know from scripture. We’re going to talk about some evidence in this segment. Right now we’re witnessing an extraordinary multifaceted convergence. And that word we’ve used many, many times. For instance, in Israel, for instance, on the ground, the ongoing aliyah, meaning the regathering of the Jewish people to their ancestral homeland, that’s there in Israel, it’s happening. It continues as a direct and modern fulfillment of ancient prophecies throughout the Old Testament in particular, over 20,000 arrivals were recorded just this past year alone. And simultaneously, Jerusalem itself as a city, and we’ve talked about that much in the past, called the city of God. Jerusalem and the importance of that city predated God’s promise even to Abraham.
Think about that. So Jerusalem as a city sits squarely at the absolute center of global geopolitical friction, and that’s just as Zechariah the prophet foretold. Now looking beneath the surface of political occurrences, there’s an incredible movement at the spiritual infrastructural level. And I’m going to have Jayar fill that out, things related to preparation for worship on the Temple Mount and that kind of thing. In addition, there’s a major conflict developing, continuing. You may not have seen this yet, but there’s a massive 100,000 troop, 100,000 Saudi led, US and Pakistani assisted. It’s a ground offensive, just launched in Yemen called Operation Dawn of Yemen, aimed at securing the critical Babel Mandeb choke point at the Houthis control. All of those will ratchet up without a doubt confrontations involving Iran, its proxies, and I’m going to suggest their allies, the region is on fire and it is growing.
Now, JR, let’s go into this because all of these pieces hearken to biblical prophecy as we look at the Middle East today. And you’ve already alluded to that, but build it out. How do you synthesize or put together the ongoing Aliyah, the return of the Jewish people and the physical, I’m going to say meticulous preparations for a future temple and how those align and what is it about those things that gets your attention?
J.R. McGee:
You and I both have many Messianic Jewish friends that we’re in constant communication with, and I’m constantly talking to Hebrew people who tell me they feel compelled to return to Israel. It’s a compulsion. That’s the Holy Spirit. And it’s moving in bigger and bigger waves as they go through. You would think it would reach the law of diminishing returns, but it seems to be picking up speed. And then you mentioned the temple activity. The Temple Mount Society has, and I’m sure you’ve had several people on your shows that have talked in detail about the way that they’re building all of the artifacts that are needed for that temple. I’m familiar with the red heifer. There was one in Alabama that was born recently. There was another one that was just taken to Israel. They did all of the ceremony to cleanse the temple. The only thing that was missing was the temple.
They did that for practice and for training. These things are moving. They’re moving in really significant ways. Even a blind person could not miss. And Sam, it’s almost like you read the Bible and you read the newspaper and you’re reading the exact same thing written by the same people. They don’t line up closely. They line up precisely. Numbers chapter 19 outlines exactly what’s going to be necessary for putting the temple into place so that it’s useful and functional. And we’re seeing everything that Numbers 19 tells us is going to occur. And then you look at what’s going on between Israel and the Palestinian territories. You mentioned the board of peace that’s going on and the Abrahamic accords. That’s described in Joel chapter three verses one and two, Zachariah chapter 12 verse three. These things are occurring in ways that are undeniable. There’s a lot of people in the past that says, “Oh, well, you can interpret that any way you want to.
You can make scripture say anything you want to.” Well, I’m sorry, even the newspapers now don’t realize that they are copying prophecy almost word for word. If you can’t see it, it’s because you don’t want to see it, Sam.
Sam Rohrer:
And JR, I think you’re totally correct because much of what we’re talking about when we talk about looking through the lens of biblical prophecy, the lens of scripture, as believers, we know that the truth of God’s word is spiritually discerned. It requires the work of the Holy Spirit to actually open up a person’s eyes so that they can see the light in what’s taking place. And the world walks in darkness. The word of God says that. So as you say, people don’t understand because they are not humbling themselves before God. Now, let’s go right here into the conflict aspect of it. Obviously we got the war with Iran going on. It’s expanding. It’s not shrinking as this evidence of what’s taking place at joint operations around the Red Sea. It’s going to tick things up. I’m curious as what you think about that. It’s in the midst of this peace and security agreements, but we know there’s not going to be true genuine peace.
And so all of these things are unfolding. In your opinion, how does this dual reality, the fact that there’s not going to be peace, but yet there’s going to be a peace and there’s going to be war and Iran we know ends up not weaker but stronger. How does that relate directly to passages such as Daniel nine and Ezekiel 38 and one Thessalonians five?
J.R. McGee:
Well, Sam, it goes even deeper than that. You’ve got Zechariah chapter 12, you’ve got Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39 that you and I have talked about in detail and Matthew chapter 24. As you look at how all these things are aligning and playing out, you look at how Iran is still funding Hezbollah. It’s still funding and supporting Hamas. Israel is still taking out Hamas commanders and Hezbollah equipment on the border with Lebanon. These things are growing. Iran is still supporting the Houthis with Yemen. We’ll talk about that in just a second. All of these things are indicating that rather than us beating Iran, Iran is working behind the scenes and they’re not winning militarily. We’re beating them badly militarily. They’re not winning economically. We’re destroying their economy, but yet they’re still able to manipulate events. And the Bible says, even though it doesn’t appear there’s any way Iran can win, obviously Iran’s going to come out of this linked with Russia in a way that threatens Israel far more than they’re doing it today.
And one of the things that we’re seeing is the Abrahamic Accords. You mentioned that.This looks like Daniel chapter nine verse 27 or one Thessalonians chapter five, verse three. There are so many references in the Bible that speak directly to what we’re seeing going on in the world today. It’s undeniable. I had a conversation last week with one of my very good friends that I respect deeply and he was saying, “Well, JR, you can read anything you want and you can twist it and make it appear to say almost anything you want.” I said, “But when it’s word for word, when it’s action for action, how do you not link that?” We know that no matter what happens out of these Abrahamic accords, it’s not going to last. Saudi Arabia is desperately locked into a combat with the Houthis in Yemen and Iran, and they’ve looked to the United States and the United States has denied them active support.
We’ve agreed to give them intel support, but no active military support. I don’t understand that. This is when we should be reinforcing that alignment and that alliance and we’re not. That’s pushing Saudi Arabia into finding someone else that can guarantee their security. We’re looking at selling them more arms, but so is Russia. So is China. You go back and look last night, Russia made an announcement that they have an undeniable alliance with Iran that they will not break. That’s a direct quote from the Minister of Defense from Russia.
These things are occurring and they’re speeding up, Sam. They’re not slowing down. They’re speeding up and they don’t make sense politically or rationally, but it makes sense biblically.
Sam Rohrer:
And ladies and gentlemen, that ultimately is where we’re looking through the lens of scripture, interpreting the news of the day, the newspaper through the pages of scripture. That’s when it makes sense. Stay with us. We’ll be right back. We’ll talk about the Northern Alliance in biblical prophecy. Well, welcome back as we continue our focus today on what I’m calling beyond the horizon, ancient prophecy, modern conflict, and the blessed hope. We’re talking about prophecy because you just simply cannot talk about world events, global events, headline news without finding a connection to unfolding biblical prophecy. And you cannot talk about the end days in which we’re in without talking about conflict and increasing conflict and lawlessness. Why? Well, because that’s what the Bible says will converge. And in fact, they are. Now as we sit here today, increasingly, the world’s attention, again, we’ve talked about it for years on this program, the world’s attention we said years ago would be increasingly drawn to the Middle East.
Well, now it’s kind of locked on to the Middle East. The entire world is aligning in relationship to the Middle East. And who’s right in the middle of it? Israel. And JR talked about that in the last segment, but right now there’s, I’m going to say a highly formidable front that is rapidly taking shape, an alliance of nations. We’ve talked about that there and in the far north and across Eurasia. We’ll talk more about that here right now because at this moment, military forces are actively responding, well, a number of places. High latitude threats is one of them that won’t say polar, things that are happening up to the north. And JR is going to explain that a little bit and what that means. But at the same time that that’s taking place, it pairs with simultaneously declared security agreements that have taken place between the US, Denmark and Greenland as an example of that and a space base that JR will talk to us about up in the north.
But it’s more than just that. So why the focus on the high north, you’ll explain that. But at the same time, there’s a convergence of unprecedented military power, multi-power nations, Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, you call it the crink axis, C-R-I-N-K, the crink axis, but they are aligning through joint exercises, now technology transfers. And they also have this in common, a very shared strong hostility toward the West. And I did a little bit of research on this today and I went and I said, right, I wonder how many active official military personnel between those nations, Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, how many military men are officially recognized and ready to engage active duty? Do you know how many there are five and a half million troops in just those nations? And when you evaluate Russia’s expanding ties with China and all of that and Iran, it begins to move together that looks kind of like what scripture talks about is the kings from the east.
All right, JR, I set up a few things there, but I want to know from your perspective on counter terrorism and information warfare, when you see the US and NATO forces ramping up operational readiness, and you can talk about some of that, you got that going on. At the same time, it’s developing in a very real way to the Russia and then they got the partnership, the alliance we just talked about. We have major alliances that are shaping up and they’re not shaping up to pat each other on the back, but to stab each other in the gut. Talk to me about it.
J.R. McGee:
Sam, you mentioned exercise Tundra Merlin, and that’s an exercise that’s ongoing even as you and I are on the radio today. It’s a military exercise that America and Canada are jointly working along with Greenland, Denmark, Finland. And what they’re doing is they’re using aircraft, satellites, radar stations on the ground, forward looking systems. They’re using ships in the Arctic passages to practice how they would respond to attacks over the Arctic Circle. Now let’s talk for just a moment about why that’s important. We’ve been looking at missile defense because the Israelis in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Jordan have been suffering ICBM attacks from Iran, and we’ve seen exactly how devastating those can be if those missiles get through a missile defense shield. Well, China and Russia have even better ICBMs and all of them would have to come over the Arctic Circle in order to strike Canada and the United States.
Sam Rohrer:
A
J.R. McGee:
Lot of people don’t understand the geography and the physics behind that, but a launch would have to transit those areas. If we look only for the due line radars that are at the northern edge of Canada, by the time we see the missile intercept the missile and the missile rains down the debris, that debris is raining down into Southern Canada and the United States and it could be radioactive. We need to intercept and detect those missiles long before then. And that’s precisely why Greenland has become so critically important. We need to have those stations there. Tule Greenland, it’s now called Potificate, which is too difficult to pronounce. I’m still probably going to call it Tule Air Station because that’s what I’ve called it for 30 years. We still need that station and others just like it to identify exactly where these launches are occurring in time to intercept them over Russia and over China.
That is the new high ground. And we’ve known for 3000 years, whoever occupies the high ground has the advantage militarily and we need to improve our capabilities up there. We need to improve the things that we’re using. We need to improve our troops’ ability to operate there in that extreme cold environment. For six years, I was program manager of the training range up there, 77,000 square miles of airspace, the Pacific Alaskan Rain Complex, and operating at 60 below zero is a lot different than operating at 10 above zero. It’s completely different. Equipment doesn’t work the same. People don’t work the same. Software doesn’t begin to deal with that. You have to physically be there. You have to physically learn how to go do it. And these alliances that we’re making with Denmark, Greenland, Canada, Iceland, I think Norway, Finland, Sweden, all of these are crucially important for our security in the very near future.
NATO is actually shifting north. People are still focusing on NATO as if Russia was going to come through the full de gap like they were going to do in the ’70s and ’80s. No, today the threat is coming over the Arctic Circle. We’ve got to be set up, and this has resulted in what’s now referred to as the 2026 Arctic Allies joint statement. This is a binding governmental and local partnerships that cover a multitude of things. This is exactly what Donald Trump was trying to go for when he was negotiating with Denmark over Greenland. And this covers not only just the military, but critical minerals, rare earths, oil, gas, trade passages through the Arctic, education, energy. It’s incredible how important this region is becoming to the world. Whoever controls this is going to dominate in the future just the way whoever controlled the Florida gap was going to control
In the ’70s and ’80s and ’90s during the NATO Warsaw Pact era. I think that as we look at all of these things, we’ve got to focus on exactly what’s happening and this does line up. The Bible talks about Gog, Magog and Ezekiel 38, Revolutions chapter 16. You just have to read this and you see it right there in front of you. The thing people are failing to realize, Sam, is how it’s all tied together, how there is an underlying strategy behind it. Although our government has done an extraordinarily poor job of explaining to the American people what that strategy is and why it’s important, nonetheless, it’s critically important to our country.
Sam Rohrer:
All right. And don’t have much time left, but just go a little bit to the Eastern Alliance. Again, as you’ve said, you and I and others on this program have talked much about the Gog-Magog War. It comes about, many would think early into the point of the tribulation period perhaps, but this alignment of Russia, China, now you got to throw Turkey into that whole thing that’s happening before our eyes. 10 years ago, I mean, biblically you would say, “Well, I know it’s going to happen, but I don’t know how.” Now we actually see it happening. To what extent is this alliance, from your perspective, actually congealing into something firm and strong?
J.R. McGee:
Just like Russia announced last night, they’ve got an alliance with Iran that they view as being critical to their long-term national strategic interest, both in the Middle East and on the world stage. China sees the exact same thing. In fact, China’s looking at everything that’s going on in the Middle East and applying those lessons to their relationship with Taiwan and preparing for how we’re going to work in Taiwan. This is the kings of the east aligning with the kings of the north, just like it talks about in Ezekiel 38, Revelations chapter 16 verses 12 through 16. Sam, it’s there in black and white. All people have to do is open their eyes to see it.
Sam Rohrer:
And ladies and gentlemen, that is the real prayer of today, that people would open their eyes. It’s not that that truth is not existent, it’s just that people must submit themselves to the truth. And what is the truth? God’s word, written truth, and who is it? Well, we know who it is, Jesus Christ, who is the way, that truth, and the life. That’s what it comes down to. When we come back, we’re going to talk about now, in light of all these things, how do we live daily in light of the blessed hope? Well, as we go into our final segment now, we’ve covered a lot of ground. We’ve started my guest today, J.R. McGee, we started by looking at the big picture about all that’s happening around the world of which frankly there’s far too much to keep into perspective. And there are so many things that are being thrown at us by a system.
The news of the world is the news of the world. The news from the world is the news of the world. And the world lies in darkness. And this world is controlled, we know, by the wicked one. Now one day that’s going to shift and that’s going to change, but right now the world lies under the control of the wicked one. And that contest for the King of Kings, Jesus Christ will win. That’s yet ahead. But in the meantime, the word of God has given us very, very clear indication of things that will unfold, not every precise thing, but generally speaking. And so headline news today, they bombard us with all kind of, well, growing vulnerabilities, I put it that way. Things that really are designed to make us unstable. But we hear a lot about massive data centers draining our electrical grids, rapid advances in AI based on for the purpose of global surveillance and control.
And now an official, I’m going to say, idolizing of this non-human intelligence by demanding that people refer to it as super intelligence. Not super intelligence. It’s not. And then we have threats to our water and our food and our financial infrastructure and political division all around. These are the things that are there. What’s it designed to do? Well, to destabilize, create anxiety and fear and outright panic. And who is there to step in that gap? Government from human perspective, but behind it, the man of sin who wants to bring himself forward and he will and he’ll say, “Hey, I’ve got all the answers.” Okay, JR, there’s a lot of ways we could look at this, but as we consider these headlines, of which we’ve just talked on some, infrastructure vulnerabilities of which there are many, how AI may or may not impact things, the energy issue, which is a real issue, impact on food short, all of that is very, very, very real.
But here’s the question. How can people guard their hearts against fear and focus on practical stewardship for their families and communities? And again, we’ve talked about this before, but we need to keep returning to what the word of God says. What do you say?
J.R. McGee:
Well, Sam, this is the so what. This is what this is all about. And as much as I love the geopolitical and Middle Eastern affairs and the strategy behind all this stuff, we can’t control global geopolitics, but we can control our faith. We can control how we steward our lives and how we love our families and encourage those around us. I think that while the world sees overwhelming chaos, we see an undeniable physical proof that God’s word’s true. His timeline’s right on schedule. As I look at all of this, I’m overwhelmed by how people who had no concept of what today was going to be like 3000 years ago wrote in such detail of exactly what was going to happen. That had to be the Holy Spirit. One of the things that I teach is advanced statistics and probabilities. There’s no way that that could be as accurate as it is given the randomness of some of that.
Now, could they get occasionally an effect or two right? Yeah, that’s just random chance. But to get hundreds of prophecies, absolutely correct, it just beggars belief for how you could think that that was anything other than providential divine guidance by God.
As we say some of these things, I’m looking at the fact that the news media focuses on fear, fear and gossip and scandal. That’s what drives clicks and clicks drive money. They want people to be scared. That’s when they get people to tune in. That’s when they get eyeballs on their news. That’s where they make their money. So they want people to be afraid. They want people to be concerned. They want people to not trust and not have faith. They want people to look for a savior, but the savior they’re promoting is not the savior of the Bible. I’m going to tell you, don’t fear the news or the change going on around us. And this is really no different than countless other times throughout history when great change has occurred to large groups of people. It’s happened to Israel. Even in the Bible, Israel was conquered and the population was taken to Babylon more than once.
Persia conquered Israel. Multiple times, people all over the world in all different types of situations have suffered tremendous loss. We’ve seen technological change. When the engine replaced horses, when steam engines replaced physical labor, all these changes really radically changed society around them. And most people were focused on the fear of that change, but a handful of people focused on the opportunity of that change. And faith and belief is the only thing that each one of us can control. We can affect what happens to us. We can affect what happens to our families. We can affect what happens to the people immediately around us in our social circles, especially within our churches and our religious organizations. I’m going to tell you… Go ahead, Sam…
Sam Rohrer:
Okay, JR, we’re winding it down. I want you to link in right now into what you’re saying with what we’ve said from the beginning about the importance of keeping our eyes fixed on the blessed hope. You’re going there, but I want you to make sure we end up there.
J.R. McGee:
Absolutely. God says, in fact, Jesus said in Matthew chapter 16 verse two, he said, “You’re good at reading the signs of the weather and if the sky is red in the morning, you know that it’s going to be stormy. And if the sky is red at night, you mean it’s going to be fair weather tomorrow.” He said, “You can read the signs of the weather, but you can’t read the signs of the times? You’re hypocrites.” What we’re talking about today on this show are signs of the times that Christians should be able to see that yes, these things are happening, but instead of being fearful, this tells me that what Jesus said was true and accurate. It tells me he said he was coming again. He’s coming again exactly the way he said he was coming. He’s coming exactly where he’s coming. He’s coming back to the Mount of Olives.
He’s coming back as a conquering lion, as a conquering king. He’s coming back as the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings. And if this is accurate, then what Jesus said about that has to be accurate. And don’t spend so much time worrying about the world that you fail to see how to care for your family and friends around you. Don’t spend so much time being afraid that you lose sight of what’s going on. This is the most exciting time I’ve ever witnessed in my 71 years on this earth, Sam,
Where other people see chaos and concern. I see confirmation and proof that God’s real.
Sam Rohrer:
He’s
J.R. McGee:
Coming again soon. I just pray that it’s today. God’s going to come back just like he said. Israel is going to win just like he said. Iran’s going to fail just like he said. Russia and China are going to lose just like he said. What’s not clear is where America fits all into this. But you know what? I’m more a child of God than I am a patriot of America.
Sam Rohrer:
There you go. And JR, we have to leave because we’re out of time. Ladies and gentlemen, you can hear JR, you hear me. I hope that you have that confidence in your heart. How can we be confident in these days by having our faith firmly planted in Jesus Christ and our identity locked into him and us as a child of God?
