Iran has ordered thousands of tons of ballistic missile ingredients from China as part of an effort to rebuild its military capabilities while navigating ongoing nuclear talks with the United States, according to a Wall Street Journal report on Thursday, citing sources familiar with the transactions.

The shipments, which are expected to reach Iran in the coming months, include ammonium perchlorate, a key component in the solid propellant used for ballistic missiles. Sources indicated that these materials could potentially fuel hundreds of missiles.

The crazy mullahs will try it and the result will be as Psalms 7:12-16 and Psalms 83, describe

The recent special International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report on Iranian nuclear violations added many points, one being that Iran carried out multiple implosion tests, a key military skill necessary for developing the atomic bomb. Implosion tests do not have civilian nuclear uses.

The fact that it carried out various explosive tests also suggests that Iran is further along in other skills needed for developing a nuclear bomb, besides just enriching uranium, than many observers may have thought.

Israel sees a rare opportunity – one that may not return – to strike Iran, based on the convergence of several factors:

The recent acceleration of uranium enrichment processes by Iran; the extensive damage to its strategic defense systems from Israeli Air Force strikes last year; the significant weakening of Hezbollah and Iran's other proxies, apart from the Houthis; and Trump's explicit pledge that Iran will not acquire nuclear weapons under any circumstances, "under a deal or otherwise," in his words.  Israel Hayom.

According to Prophecy, there will be a settlement of the present impasse.

1 Thess 5:3 …people will say: Peace and safety……

It seems that Iran is not ready yet; as their rocket fuel got blown up at the dock recently and resupply takes time. The full enrichment of their uranium to weapons grade, also takes time.

They have to back down and grit their teeth, to sign an agreement with the United Nations and allow the inspectors access. But of course; not to their hidden, secret facilities.

The agenda of the Iranian mullahs remains the destruction of Israel. They will attempt it when they are ready, and then the rest of Pauls Prophecy kicks in.

EDIT 13th June:

WAHOO!  Now it is Israel attacking Iran.  

I imagine the IDF will manage to destroy much of Irans nuclear facilities, but there is no way that Israel can totally eliminate all of it. They have had years to hide deep underground, their core nuke development programme. 

Todays attack by Israel will likely force Iran to back down and ostensibly renounce nuke weapons. It won't change their intentions.

Iran has labored for decades to build weapons that would enable it to strike Israel, located more than 621 miles from the country's western border. During the rounds of attacks with Iran since October 7, Iran used for the first time some of these means, including advanced missiles it developed only in recent years. In Tehran they announced today that Iran intends to use the "Kheibar" ballistic missile, with a range of 1,243 miles with a MaRV (Maneuverable Reentry Vehicle), which can evade interception and strike targets with accuracy of meters.

Iran's ballistic missile arsenal is large, diverse and confusing. Experts estimated in 2022 that Iran holds 3,000 ballistic missiles of all types and all ranges.

From suicide drones to 2-ton warhead ballistic missiles. What is Tehran going to use against Israel, and can it be decisive?         Israel Hayom. June 17th

 

Irans mullahs know and we know that practically their only possibility of success is to nuke Israel. Something they now say they can and will do.

Desperation, humiliation and to save their own skins, they are certainly going to attempt it and the result will be as Bible Prophecy informs us.  Psalms 83, Jeremiah 49:35, Ezekiel 7:14, +. The Sixth Seal event.

"Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to each as is his work." - The King of Kings

We are all looking forward to the glorious Return of our Lord Jesus. 

But it is very clear that much has to happen before that Day. We who study and believe in the Bible, should be aware and prepared for it all.

With so many voices pulling this way and that way we should be more concerned with hearing the voice of the true Shepherd. 

I will look to what He said about the beginning of the end of the age.

I see it a bit different.  

Zech 55 Again I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, a flying scroll! 2 And he said to me, "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a flying scroll. Its length is twenty cubits, and its width ten cubits." 3 Then he said to me, "This is the curse that goes out over the face of the whole land. For everyone who steals shall be cleaned out according to what is on one side, and everyone who swears falsely shall be cleaned out according to what is on the other side. 4 I will send it out, declares the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter the house of the thief, and the house of him who swears falsely by my name. And it shall remain in his house and consume it, both timber and stones." A Vision of a Woman in a Basket5 Then the angel who talked with me came forward and said to me, "Lift your eyes and see what this is that is going out." 6 And I said, "What is it?" He said, "This is the basket that is going out." And he said, "This is their iniquity in all the land." 7 And behold, the leaden cover was lifted, and there was a woman sitting in the basket! 8 And he said, "This is Wickedness." And he thrust her back into the basket, and thrust down the leaden weight on its opening.9 Then I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, two women coming forward! The wind was in their wings. They had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and heaven. 10 Then I said to the angel who talked with me, "Where are they taking the basket?" 11 He said to me, "To the land of Shinar, to build a house for it. And when this is prepared, they will set the basket down there on its base. ESV

You’ve shared a passage from Zechariah 5 in the English Standard Version (ESV), which contains two distinct visions: the flying scroll and the woman in a basket. These are prophetic visions given to the prophet Zechariah, and they carry symbolic meaning about judgment, sin, and purification. Let me break it down for you step by step in a clear and straightforward way.

Vision 1: The Flying Scroll (Verses 1-4)

What Zechariah Sees:
Zechariah looks up and sees a massive flying scroll—20 cubits long and 10 cubits wide (roughly 30 feet by 15 feet, based on a cubit being about 18 inches). This isn’t a normal scroll; it’s huge and flying, which signals it’s a supernatural vision with a big message.

What It Represents:
The angel explains that this scroll is a "curse" going out over the whole land. In this context, "curse" refers to God’s judgment or punishment for sin. The scroll has writing on both sides, and it targets two specific sins:

Stealing: Representing violations against other people (breaking commandments like "do not steal").

Swearing falsely: Specifically, using God’s name in vain or lying under oath (breaking commandments about honoring God). These sins likely stand for broader categories of wrongdoing—crimes against people and crimes against God.

What It Does:
The scroll doesn’t just float around; it has power. God (the "Lord of hosts") sends it out to enter the homes of the guilty. Once inside, it destroys their houses—both "timber and stones"—completely wiping them out. This shows that sin doesn’t go unpunished; God’s judgment is thorough and inescapable.

Big Picture:
This vision is about God cleansing the land of evil. The scroll acts like a divine decree or legal document, enforcing God’s law and purging the community of those who disobey. It’s a warning to repent and a promise that justice will prevail.

Vision 2: The Woman in a Basket (Verses 5-11)

What Zechariah Sees:
The angel tells Zechariah to look again, and this time he sees a basket (or "ephah," a container about the size of a bushel). A lead cover is lifted, revealing a woman inside. The angel identifies her as "Wickedness."

What It Represents:

The basket symbolizes the collected sin or iniquity of the people across the land.

The woman called Wickedness personifies evil itself—perhaps representing idolatry, rebellion, or moral corruption.

The lead cover suggests containment; this evil is being trapped or controlled.

What Happens:
The angel pushes the woman back into the basket and seals it with the heavy lead lid, showing that this wickedness is being dealt with decisively.

The Two Women with Wings:
Then, two women with stork-like wings appear (storks were known for their large wings and migratory habits). They pick up the basket and fly it away. Their wings being driven by the wind might hint at God’s power directing this process.

Where It Goes:
Zechariah asks where they’re taking the basket, and the angel says, "To the land of Shinar." Shinar is another name for Babylon (see Genesis 11:2, where the Tower of Babel was built). They’ll build a house for the basket there and set it on a base, like a permanent resting place.

Big Picture:
This vision is about removing wickedness from God’s people and sending it far away—specifically to Babylon, a place historically tied to idolatry and opposition to God. It’s a symbolic way of saying that sin will be exiled, and God’s land will be purified. Some see this as a reversal of the exile: instead of God’s people being sent to Babylon, now the evil is being shipped out.

These two visions together paint a picture of God’s response to sin among His people (likely the post-exilic community of Judah after their return from Babylon):

The Flying Scroll shows God’s active judgment against individual sins, cleansing the land by punishing the guilty.

The Woman in the Basket shows God removing wickedness as a whole, banishing it from His presence so His people can live righteously.

Both visions emphasize God’s holiness, His intolerance of sin, and His commitment to purify His people and their land. They’re meant to encourage repentance and trust in God’s justice.

I understand what you put down and it is from the text.

But it is also during the time of the Covenant of Sinai. The Land is about the Land of Israel which the Lord of the Covenant had given them. And the Judgement is about the people of God in the Sinai Covenant and their Lord God who had the right to Judge them according to their Covenant. It's not about the Gentiles and their Land which was the rest of the world. 

The prophet spoke to the people of the Sinai Covenant who lived in the Land of the Lord. The Land was Holy.

Jesus also said that many would be deceived.......  Matthew 24:5

The easily understood Prophecy in Zechariah 5 clearly refers to technology and things that we have today, has not yet been fulfilled. This and many other Prophesies confirm that the Lord Himself will settle the crisis in the Middle East. Ezekiel 7:14, +

President Trump is expected to decide whether to join Israel in an attack on Iran, particularly targeting Fordow, where B52 bombers and bunker-busting bombs would be used to destroy the facility. Opponents in the United States are primarily concerned about potential retaliatory attacks on oil fields and facilities in neighboring Persian Gulf states, such as Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia. Leaks in the American media from these opponents have suggested that Iran was not actually close to developing a nuclear bomb and included a warning to Israel about depleting stocks of Arrow missiles. Both claims are far from reality.

Security officials state that, due to significant damage to Iran's missile launchers, Israel's missile inventory remains sufficient for many more days of fighting, with replenishment occurring at a rapid pace. Regarding Iran's military nuclear program, Israel Hayom reported that the Mossad and Britain's MI6 have confirmed that Iran has made rapid strides in recent months toward completing the trigger and mechanism needed for a nuclear bomb.

An American official noted that, alongside the ultimatum, military preparations continue – both for defensive and potential offensive actions. The official emphasized that the primary task is protecting American facilities and interests in the region, including ensuring freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has threatened to close. A significant portion of the world's oil supply passes through this strait. The official added that other Western and Middle Eastern countries are involved in these efforts.    June 19th

The bible informs us how to decipher Gods Word, which is by studying the Word. Rather than providing unsubstantiated conjecture about what something means in Gods Word,--I then look for related material in order to substantiate what is being described.

If we look at events shown in Zechariah 4, we see the two witnesses, who are the same two witnesses who are killed by the beast who rises from the bottomless pit in Revelation 11:7. As such, we can determine that the events in Zechariah 5 follow those of the two witnesses in Zechariah 4. The curse that goeth over the face of the whole earth (Zechariah 5:3), is therefore the bottomless pit that is opened from which the beast shall arise, and initiate his new world order.

Revelation 11:7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

Zechariah 5:3 Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
