And for those who think the Antichrist will prove to be Turkey's Erdogan:
Walid Shoebat has an article HERE (http://shoebat.com/2015/05/21/turkeys-prime-minister-declares-the-jews-defiled-jerusalem-and-vows-to-reclaim-jerusalems-temple-mount-to-be-ruled-by-the-revived-ottoman-empire/)
The Turkish Anadolu Agency reported today [May 21] that Erdogan’s henchman, Turkey’s Prime Minister, has made a promise today to his people that if they elect him next month that he promises to soon liberate Jerusalem. Ahmet Davutoglu was using words that are major hints for all students of Bible Prophecy:
“Al-Aqsa Mosque [The Temple Mount] is ours forever, and as Allah is my witness and history will testify, it will remain ours forever.”
The war of words erupted between opposition leaders in which they said that Jerusalem is to be considered private land for the Jews – a reference to Salahuddin Demirtash, Party leader of the Democratic Peoples, and other statements from Kamal Ihsanoglu, leader of the Republican People’s Party, Turkey’s largest opposition party, in which these criticized poor relations with Israel.
The AKP Party seems to make Israel the main issue of the divide. He said in response to the opposition:
“We will not be friends for those who desecrated Al-Aqsa [Temple Mount] with their boots,” adding “let them go and be friends with them (the Jews) as they wish,” referring to the opposition, saying that they “insult Jerusalem” like the Jews.
Davutoglu is saying that what determines a Muslim from a non-Muslim is the issue of Jerusalem. In other words, Davutoglu is dividing Turks whether they are with the AK Party or enemy collaborators for Israel.
Last week Shoebat.com reported when Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan gave a speech in the state of Erzincan, central Turkey, with messages riddled with statements that were predicted in the Bible regarding Antichrist. From his desire to invade Jerusalem and to Muhammad’s claim to have ascended to heaven from there, Erdogan called on all Turks to refocus on the Ottoman goal to re-conquer Jerusalem for Islam:
“Unfortunately we the Muslims lost our aim to head towards Jerusalem. The water of our eyes froze making us blind, and our hearts that was destined to beat for Jerusalem is now instead conditioned for rivalry being in a state of war with each other.”
The Turkish president called on citizens to “raise their hands in supplication for this blessed night towards Allah to restore the Al-Aqsa Mosque [Jerusalem] to be re-owned by Muslims, and to remove the mist from their eyes, to see Jerusalem in their hands at every moment and at every opportunity.”
*****************
Obviously Turkey will play an important end times role; they will be on the Islamic side during any war with Israel and/or the Christian nations... but I expect a different leader will be revealed as the Antichrist soon.
