1 Thessalonians 5:3

For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.



This past week a US-organised conference in Poland that was meant to address security issues in the Middle East turned out to be an anti-Iran meet. The Ministerial to Promote a Future of Peace and Security in the Middle East ironically did not invite Iran. Additionally, most European nations sent low-level delegations, highlighting their discomfort with the conference’s attempt to corner Iran. EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini was absent and Russia declined the invitation. Plus, the Palestinian Authority refused to participate, describing the conference as a US-Israel conspiracy.

We all know the verse, but how do we know which peace and safety event will be "the one"? We don't, however, with the times we are in, it could be possible that any of them from here out is the event in question. Although, without the cooperation of Iran, can the Middle East really say they have peace? It's very unlikely. This entire meeting seemed to be an "Anti-Iran" as the Times of India reported.

Iran, of course, has been a huge pain in the U.S' side, and a pretty heavy enemy towards Israel in this Syria crisis and more. Without them, can this really be referred to as Peace and Safety with one of Israel's enemies still throwing threats around the globe? Most likely not. While I have the personal belief that the majority of the world needs to make this pact for the prophecy to be fulfilled, we are far from that. The tension between the US, China, Russia, Iran, and Israel are growing more and more each day, so what and when will this passage be fulfilled? Is this passage pertaining only to Israel or a specific place in the world? Is it even a fully valid passage since it was written by Saul of Tartarus?I won't pretend to know these answers, but what I can tell you is that 2019 is going to topple 2018 in disaster events, and they might be more than just weather phenomena this year!

Have a very nice day!
