A leading member of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt told the Arabic-language Iranian news network Al-Alam on Monday that he would like to see the Egyptian people prepare for war against Israel, according to the Hebrew-language business newspaper Calcalist.

Muhammad Ghannem reportedly told Al- Alam that the Suez Canal should be closed immediately, and that the flow of gas from Egypt to Israel should cease “in order to bring about the downfall of the Mubarak regime.” He added that “the people should be prepared for war against Israel,” saying the world should understand that “the Egyptian people are prepared for anything to get rid of this regime.”

Ghannem praised Egyptian soldiers deployed by President Hosni Mubarak to Egyptian cities, saying they “would not kill their brothers.” He added that Washington was forced to abandon plans to help Mubarak stay in power after “seeing millions head for the streets.”

COMMENT

Only week or so ago Libya was not in the news. How things have changed!

Daniel foresaw what we all have obviously forgotten, the accuracy of the prophecy with the King of the South. One thing is certain its all bearing down on one location Har Mo'ed - Jerusalem.

Daniel continues:- And at the time of the end ....

11:42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
11:43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians [shall be] at his steps.

Whether the Suez, the chokepoint for energy supplies to Europe, closes by way of the influence of the Brotherhood via Iran, that waits to be seen, but we cannot ignore the spikes at the gas pump.

The Messenger of the Lord summarized it this way

"Everything in the world is in agitation. The signs of the times are ominous. Coming events cast their shadows before. The Spirit of God is withdrawing from the earth, and calamity follows calamity by sea and by land. There are tempests, earthquakes, fires, floods, murders of every grade. Who can read the future? Where is security? DA 636

The days in which we live are solemn and important. The Spirit of God is gradually but surely being withdrawn from the earth. Plagues and judgments are already falling upon the despisers of the grace of God. The calamities by land and sea, the unsettled state of society, the alarms of war, are portentous. They forecast approaching events of the greatest magnitude. The agencies of evil are combining their forces, and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.--Testimonies, vol. 9, p. 11

Our security is found only in our Great High Priest and walking in the light even as He is in the light [1 John 1:7] especially as it relates to the last act of the Final Atonement as discussed in many issues of WWN. God's people were all put on notice that final movements will be rapid to which sleeping SDA's are just completely unprepared.

Future events will bring surprises to the fore and God said it will all have a similar doctrinal undertow - illicit ecumenism by the Little Horn - to which the SDA Church accepted as common doctrinal confession back in 1980 the year of the fulfilment of Jesus' prophecy Luke 21:24.
