Iran attacks Jerusalem & other places in Israel:
Luke 21 (Jesus says)
21 Then let them which are in JudaJea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
Other countries do not unusually attack Jerusalem because many Muslims and even a temple for them is at Jerusalem. So they sometimes attack Israel but not Jerusalem. According to CNN's Wolf Blitzard, a Jewish announcer, that is what caught his attention, the fact that Iran attacked Jerusalem. And that is what caught my attention also because Jesus spoke of Jerusalem in Luke 21.

We who know the Bible, know one of the most serious things is when armies surround Jerusalem.
Tonight Iran sent missiles and drones against Jerusalem. So far, the Israel and USA air defense seems to have intercepted most of these weapons and have caused them to explode in the air.
From a Bible standpoint, this type attack on Jerusalem is a signal for other things, especially the Great Tribulation that is to come upon the world from God and even the coming of Jesus to gather HIS elect. Matthew 24 speaks of this. Here is a writing I completed today.
💥💥💥
In Matthew 24, Jesus gives us an outline of that which leads up to the end of this world and the coming of Jesus to gather the elect of God to remove the elect from this earth.
Matthew 24
PoP
1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and HIS disciples came to HIM for to shew HIM the buildings of the temple.2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
(Jesus shows HIS disciples that all these things made by man will be destroyed at the end of this world.)
💥💥💥
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in MY name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
(Many will come saying "Jesus is Lord" and people will view them as Christian so they will be able to deceive many. They will come as ministers. They will also come as people in the congregations. But they will bring doctrines not of Christ but of antichrist and they will lead people away from many scriptures in the New Testament Bible. These are the antichrist churches of the end times leading up to the great tribulation which God will send to judge the whole world along with the antichrist churches.)
Revelation 8, 9, 16
💥💥💥
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
(Some of those things have now already passed: WWI; WWII; churches departing from scripture of the Bible and setting up doctrines contrary to Christ, antichrist in the churches)
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
(Example: In Germany. People lived in terror for if a neighbor or even their own children became offended they could denounce a person to the Gestapo and cause them to be taken and tortured and even killed.)
💥💥💥
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
(Today, all over the world, there are false ministers leading individual churches, falling away from scripture of Bible and setting up doctrines opposite to Bible. antichrist)
💥💥💥
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
(2 Timothy 3:1-6 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
... 13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.)
(We see iniquity growing worse and worse in both churches and world leaders and individuals day by day, year by year. Often we are shocked by that which they say and do. Finally we've heard so much evil from them that we expect to hear such and if we aren't careful we will become hardened to the evil and will be in danger of being swept away ourselves from truth, from God, from Bible.)
💥💥💥
Matthew 24 (Jesus says)
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
(I've heard many today in church groups say their church has become "watered down". And politicians in USA have grown worse and worse and integrity is even worse that in decades before and many of us are shocked at that which they say and do. All this leads up to the great tribulation where God brings HIS own judgments upon both religious and non-religious persons of this whole world.)
💥💥💥
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
(This has been fulfilled through Internet: blogs & podcasts This is a major factor showing us we are at the threshold of the coming of Jesus, The Great Tribulation of God, and the destruction of this heaven and this earth... 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.)

Matthew 24 (Jesus says)
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
(Everyone will see Jesus coming through the clouds.)

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, HE is in the desert; go not forth: behold, HE is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
💥💥💥
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
💥💥💥
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
(The generation that sees the beginning will see the end.)

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but MY words shall not pass away. (says Jesus)
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but MY Father only.
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The key is Jerusalem.
Previous attacks on Israel have avoided Jerusalem because people other than Jews live in Jerusalem.
Tonight's attack centered on Jerusalem.
Also in Luke 21 Jesus addressed the message to Jerusalem:
Luke 21 (Jesus says)
20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
(As of tonight, April 13, 2024, we don't know how far the attack from Iran is going to go. At 9:23 pm EST, missiles and drones are still appearing over Jerusalem.)
Another important thing to watch for is amount of destruction. If the Jewish Temple should be hit and destroyed or damaged, I believe this would be significant.
I will likely record a second "Special Podcast" and publish it on 4-15-2024.
Please consider these scriptures.
