The Russo-Georgian War ain’t over yet
Russia appears ready to separate a third province from Georgia:
Russia has massed a fleet of warships and marine forces opposite the Georgian semi-autonomous Black Sea region of Ajaria. Moscow is preparing to punish what it regards as Georgian president Mikhail Saakashvili’s further provocations by occupying this coastal strip on Georgia’s southwestern border with Turkey.
[...]
The Russian Black Sea buildup is deployed opposite the Ajurian capital of Batumi, an important port for the shipment of oil from Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan. Its oil refinery handles Caspian oil from Azerbaijan. [...] Russia maintained a military base at Batumi which it agreed to close by November 2007.
DEBKA analysts figure that reclaiming the base further weakens the Georgian government and, perhaps more significantly from a prophetic standpoint, gains for Moscow a key Black Sea military base at Turkey’s back door.
Considering the presence of Israeli military advisers and hardware in Georgia when this thing blew open last Friday, I plan to reread Ezekiel 38 and 39 tonight.

VFTB 013: Leonard Ulrich — Secret Societies and Bible Prophecy
about 12 months ago - No comments
TIME GROWS short, says Leonard Ulrich. That’s why he’s producing a series of forthcoming documentary films called New World Order: Secret Societies and Bible Prophecy. You can watch a rough cut of the first ten minutes at YouTube. Leonard’s contention is that evil in this world is being supernaturally directed toward the emergence of the Antichrist in the very near future, and that the time has come to resist evil as never before. Step one, of course, is to recognize what’s happenening–which, sadly, too many professing Christians do not.

Derek : I think you are correct to re-read
Ezekiel 38-39 on this issue with Georgia-
Russia conflict. It will give Russia the
‘door’ it may need for those verses…!
This conflict started on 08-08-08 in S.
Ossetia and in an interview last night the
author, David Flynn reported that when he
checked distance for time-line from the
Temple in Jerusalem to that location, it
was 888 miles! 8-8-8 miles! Something to
consider?

David mentioned that during a special we did for PID Radio Monday night. He also mentioned that the Georgian flag bears the same pattern as the flag of the Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1120, the year the Knights Templar were organized.
Kingdom of Jerusalem
Georgia
Note that 1120 was 888 years ago.
