Russia's Putin says he recognizes West Jerusalem as the capitol of Israel. This is definitely something to watch as it aligns with much Biblical Prophecy!

This lines up very well with what we are waiting for and know will end up coming to pass...

We know specifically from the Bible that there will be a 7 year peace agreement which will be what the Bible prophesied to be what we call the Confirmation of the Covenant. (the covenant God made with Abraham defining the land of Israel)

• The Confirmation of the Covenant (a seven year peace agreement) - daniel 9:27

• Dan 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

  In this Old Testament verbiage, a week means a “week of years”, or seven years (Genesis 29:27).  The confirmation of the covenant is this: there will be an international agreement to confirm the status of Jerusalem and the permanent borders of Israel.  These things are being fought over right now with the Palestinians.  The Antichrist will confirm the covenant along with many others.  It may be hard to identify him at that time.  In the midst of this “week” (three and one half years in), the Antichrist will cause the animal sacrifices being performed in the rebuilt temple to cease, and will cause the “abomination of desolation” by either claiming to be God or acting in the place of God.  That is when we will definitely know who he is.

• This is what we're waiting for right now!
• The confirmation of the covenant is the event that marks the beginning of the final seven years. This confirmation has not happened yet. The Quartet, or the Big Four; the EU, UN, US and Russia, have met to confirm the “Roadmap for Peace” in the Middle East several times but can't make it stick yet. The plan includes all the necessary steps to confirm the covenant. Today the Arab League and the Quartet along with other entities (the Elites of the world - CFR, Bilderbergs, Trilateral Commision, etc.) are doing everything they can to establish a Palestinian state and bring an agreement together between Israel and Palestine. Israel leaders have even stated that they are willing to share sovereignty of the Temple Mount and give the West Bank (Judea) back to the Palestinians. There have been many meetings of all the powers I just mentioned in the last few years, that could very well lead to this event that God calls the Confirmation of the Covenant. If they decide on a plan and implement it and make it stick, where the borders of Israel are drawn and the Temple Mount is shared, then it IS that event and that means that from that day, the day that it actually happens and they sign a treaty, there will only be 7 years remaining until the Battle of Armageddon and the return of Jesus Christ!
• As shown on our Islam in the Bible page, the Bible and Islam also mirror each other prophetically, but it is an exactly opposite mirror where the bad guys of the Bible are the good guys of Islam.
  • Bible: The Antichrist is said to make a peace treaty (with many) with Israel for seven years (the Confirmation of the Covenant). - Dan 9:27
  • Islam: The Mahdi is said to make a peace treaty through a Jew (specifically a Levite) for exactly seven years.
• We can see that both religions show this same peace treaty, and how all of the Muslims of the world will be fooled by it!

Russia is now the only nation other than the United States that has acknowledged this. More will follow, and we know this because this is necessary for the Confirmation.

We also know that the area which is now the West Bank, which was called Judaea in the Bible, will be unsafe for Jews when the Antichrist takes over the world (Matt 24:16, Mark 13:14, Luke 21:21).

This area is called the West Bank but is actually along the Eastern border of Israel.

It follows perfectly that when the covenant is confirmed and the peace treaty signed, that the East side of Jerusalem will remain in Palestinian hands and the West Bank will still be an area that will be controlled by Muslims, but settled by Jews.

When the Antichrist takes over (almost certainly to be a Muslim) he will cause Jews to be hunted and killed, so being in that area will be very, very dangerous for Jews at that time, just as Jesus said it would be.

Keep a watch on the news and I will send updates as they come to pass.
