A key leader in Turkey's government recently revealed his prayers to defeat Jerusalem, showing his country's desire to attack Israel, just as Bible prophecy states. The technology needed to rule the world is here and advancing rapidly, as Google's recent global efforts demonstrate. Plus, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) will soon decide whether its pastors must be monogamous or if they can be polyamorous and polygamous. Josh Davis connects these stories to Scripture on today's Watchman on the Wall episode.

End Times – Book of Daniel: 11 Part 2 Antiochus Epiphanes and the Coming Antichrist
End Times – Book of Daniel: 11 Part 2 Antiochus Epiphanes and the Coming Antichrist
Pastor Mike Warren

This sermon finishes Daniel 11’s historical section, tracing the wars between the Seleucid “king of the North” and the Ptolemaic “king of the South” until Antiochus IV Epiphanes emerges—a “vile” ruler who gains power through flattery, deceit, and bribery, repeatedly invades Egypt, is checked by Rome, then turns in rage against the Jewish people and the holy covenant. The pastor presents Antiochus as a detailed type of the future Antichrist, noting parallels such as deceptive covenants, betrayal, persecution of Israel, and a coming abomination of desolation, and uses the fulfilled precision of these 375 years of prophecy as a faith-strengthening preview of endtime events still ahead. He urges believers to resist last-days deception by being saturated in Scripture, walking as the salt of the earth and light of the world, and recognizing that the final man of sin cannot be revealed until the church’s restraining influence is removed.

James 4:13-17

13 Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.”
14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
15 Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.”
16 As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil.
17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

It's all in the timing - Ecclesiastes 3:1-2
1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.
