Do any of you guys know yet how everything going on in the middle east, present days, feeds into final day prophesys? Any linkages to Isaiah, Ezekiel, or revelation prophesy within present conflicts?
Bible scholar eschatologists, would you interpret Revelation 22:18-19 ESV as including Islam? When revelation, Ezekiel, and Isaiah prophecy judgements upon specific or broad lands, could we infer its relation to Islamic practices? Ie, if certain countries remained loyal to God they would be spared from the plagues in revelation?
"[18] I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, [19] and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book."
Lastly, what Bible scholar work do you reccomend that relates prophesy to present middle-east world events? Im not interested in mainstream evangelists. Im interested in scholars similar in theme to Michael Heiser. He claims he is only bringing to surface from Bible schools to the public, many debatable topics. Where do I find more ancient Bible scholars / eachatologists?
Much appreciated! Criticisms are welcome.
