Hello Vickie,You stated: This event is right around the corner from taking place, for the stage is being set for the nations to go against Jerusalem. This nation America wil go against Jerusalem (Zech 14:1-3) for God said "ALL NATIONS" will. then Christ comes with the 12 tribes and destroys them and the reign of men over God's people is ended and our King reigns here on earth with us. My response: I believe that the United States is, in part, Babylon described in Revelation 18. The debate seems almost endless, however, I would like to add another cog to the argument wheel.Why, presently, do not Russia and China attempt to overtake the oilfields of the middle east? And the answer is; because the oilfields of the middle east are United States protected interest. Now, if the US were to be suddenly taken out of the picture, wouldn’t you think that China and Russia would be racing into the area in a land grab? With this in mind, isn’t the battle of Armageddon a description of Russia and China plus the rest of the world rushing into the middle east, into United States protected interest?In Yehoshua,Guy Smith
