Zechariah 14:1-4
1 Behold, the day of the LORD is coming, ... 2 For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; ... 3 Then the LORD will go forth And fight against those nations, As He fights in the day of battle. 4 And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,

Perhaps Israel will NUKE Persia?

The foul spirits of antichrist stir up the world against Israel at that time to fulfil the words of the Lord which He spoke.


12 Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings [g]of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

15 “Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.”

16 And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, [h]Armageddon.

According to the Book of Revelation in the New Testament of the Christian Bible, Armageddon (/ˌɑːrməˈɡɛdən/; Ancient Greek: Ἁρμαγεδών Harmagedṓn;[1][2] Late Latin: Armagedōn;[3] from Hebrew: הַר מְגִדּוֹ‎ Har Məgīddō) is the prophesied location of a gathering of armies for a battle during the end times, which is variously interpreted as either a literal or a symbolic location. The term is also used in a generic sense to refer to any end-of-the-world scenario. In Islamic theology, Armageddon is also mentioned in Hadith as the Greatest Armageddon or Al-Malhama Al-Kubra (the great battle).[4]

The "mount" of Megiddo in northern Israel is not actually a mountain, but a tell (a mound or hill created by many generations of people living and rebuilding at the same spot)[5] on which ancient forts were built to guard the Via Maris, an ancient trade route linking Egypt with the northern empires of Syria, Anatolia and Mesopotamia. Megiddo was the location of various ancient battles, including one in the 15th century BC and one in 609 BC. The nearby modern Megiddo is a kibbutz in the Kishon River area.[6]

Etymology​

[edit]
The word Armageddon appears only once in the Greek New Testament, in Revelation 16:16. The word is a Greek transliteration of the Hebrew har məgiddô (הר מגידו). Har means "a mountain or range of hills". This is a shortened form of harar meaning "to loom up; a mountain". Megiddo refers to a fortification made by King Ahab that dominated the Plain of Jezreel. Its name means "place of crowds".[7][8]

Adam Clarke wrote in his Bible commentary (1817) on Revelation 16:16:

Armageddon - The original of this word has been variously formed, and variously translated. It is הר־מגדון har-megiddon, "the mount of the assembly;" or חרמה גדהון chormah gedehon, "the destruction of their army;" or it is הר־מגדו har-megiddo, "Mount Megiddo," [9]

^^^ perhaps.

I am not sure that
Zechariah 14:1-4
1 Behold, the day of the LORD is coming, ... 2 For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; ... 3 Then the LORD will go forth And fight against those nations, As He fights in the day of battle. 4 And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,

is associated with Rev 16:12-16 as you have suggested in your posts #2 and #3. It is my view that we have already seen the three unclean spirits like frogs coming from the mouth of Satan, the mouth of the Beast and the Mouth of the False Prophet showing signs and wonders that will begin to draw the kings of the earth to gather at Armageddon for battle. When God judges, He often uses a physical battle against the nation(s), sometimes supernaturally, with which He shows his judgement against that/those nation(s).

It is also my view that Rev 16:12-16 is more closely linked with the judgement of kings described in Isaiah 24:21-22, where the judged kings of the earth and the judged heavenly hosts will be imprisoned in a pit, i.e. the Bottomless Pit for many days to await the time of their punishment.

It is my view that the kings of the earth are still being drawn to gather and assemble at Armageddon for one last push against God's Sanctuary and His earthly Hosts and that in around 20 years from now, around the time of the end of this present age, they will be judged by God as per Isaiah 24:21-22.

So, if you are right in your assumption that Rev 16:12-16 is coming into view at this present time, to gather the Kings of the Earth at Armageddon for judgement, then, it is my view that we would have seen the sign of the three unclean spirits looking like frogs performing signs and wonders that were seen by all of the earth, to begin the gathering of the kings of the earth at Armageddon. It is also my view that when God gives a prophecy that it unfolds over a period of years that is around 40 years in duration so that all of the pieces of that prophecy can come to its final conclusion.

It is also my view that Luke 14:28-30 indicates to us it is the Jewish desire to rebuild the Temple which is an idol in their eyes will become the final trigger for the kings of the earth to assemble at Armageddon in an attempt, on their part, to stop the completion of the rebuilding of the temple, which is not a part of God's plan to gather Israel to Himself after the completion of the allotted time period of the visitation of the iniquities of the fathers of Israel upon their children and the children's children during the third and the fourth generation/age of their existence from the time of Isaac's birth.

The recorded history of the earth is confirming the above.

Shalom

I also think rebuilding the temple a third time is a significant event for the last days.
It won't be God's temple where He dwells, that has passed away as today God indwells His people in the NC age.

The antichrist goes there and proclaims himself god. It is just recorded as the temple of God because at that time the peoples of the earth will think of it in that way, being the 3rd temple of the Jewish religion, it is not Christ centered, the Jewish religion, that OC passed away and is obsoleted by the NC. The Jews plan to restart the sacrifices and temple worship, but it won't be the Lord they are worshipping and sacrificing offerings to. The true worshippers worship God in Spirit and in Truth.

I don't know if the antichrist is born yet or if Rev 16 is happening now, I just view those things as things that must happen as the end gets near, as the Last Day approaches, things are going to be rough on this world

3rd Temple is Christ and His Living Stones

this will be the 4th Temple for the earthbound nation Israel because they have rejected to be a part of the 3rd Temple in MESSIAH

If they build it - the Antichrist will come, and fulfill Prophecy and Matt ch24, 2 Thessalonians and More

For certain Israel will make a big mistake of using a bomb/technology that further infuriates the nations and thus the Prophecy of Zechariah begins to build.

A strong delusion to believe a lie grows massive now .
THE GOD of abraham issac and jacob HAS BEEN DENIED .
FOR JESUS THE CHRIST HAS BEEN DENIED by this lie that many now think is the love of GOD .
This is a fact david . The end hour is upon this world .
Not all , in fact very few , of Christendom are now even of CHRIST any more .
Those who were given the honor to preach the one true gospel
now lead this people far from it and into total rebellion against CHRIST . but they think and believe they serve GOD .
This is very hard and very sad to watch my friend . But we were warned deceptoins would only abound and get worse
and more so as the end drew nigh .

This is why the Apostle John wrote his letters to the "children" of all ages who love the TRUTH

Thus the Apostle John says: "no lie is of the Truth" - 1 John 2:21

No LIE is of the truth . WHO is a liar , but he who DENIES JESUS IS THE CHRIST , HE is anti christ .
SO when a lie comes along that seems to say muslims and other religoins serve the same GOD we do
YEAH , REMEMBER , NO LIE IS OF THE TRUTH . this anti christ lie
is calling for the unity of all . and most are now under its influence . the false brethren unify
and soon will come against the true who did not . The end really does draw nigh .

Why Will the World Attack Israel?

WHEN…is at the END of Jesus’ 1,000 year reign.

WHY…is Because that is when Satan is loosed to once again Influence ManKind.

Mankind will have had 1,000 (generational) years of land of plenty, peace, prosperity, building nations, cities, etc.
Generation after generation, life gets established and easier, AND even without Satan’s presence MEN still get jealous, get greedy, want what others have without working to earn it for themselves…

Once Satan is loosed…the People will hear the same old song and dance…pretty much because they ARE breathing they Deserve everything they want…and Satan is on hand to make faulty promises….
Sound familiar?

All nations will unite and come against the Lords Kingdom….and be met with the Lords mighty two edged sword… which IS His Word Spoken and His Power effected…
and that will be the END of mortal men.
And Satan and his buds will be met in battle with the Lords Holy Angels…and Satan and his buds defeated and then the Lake of FIre for them forever.

WHY? To usher in the new world, new Jerusalem …. And as it is in Heaven so shall it be ON earth. No more firmament Division…No more People divided….No more Invisible God..No more Death…No more Evil…No more corruption.
(Hoping it means…no more laundry, dishes, mowing, office work, pharmacies, cars, money, banks, traffic, etc. ) ….!
:-)

Glory to God,
Taken

The World is all about the middle east and always has. Israel has always been in the news and been an obsession with the World. Look at the history. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob delt with Egypt. Philistines, Assyria, Babylon, Romans, Germany. It's one of the must-see places on earth. I could go on.

THE World Gov is coming. Nothing can stop it.
Rev. 17:11-18
[17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
[18] And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over [controls through their use of money] the kings of the earth.

In all of the KJV-NT Bible, there are only two prophetic "mothers" that are literally mentioned. One "is FALLEN", and the other is ABOVE, which is the mother of us all [who are of faith in Jesus].

Please read all of KJV Gal. Ch. 4 and learn that there are only two great cities of Jerusalem.
Earthly Jerusalem has killed and rejected our Lord and Savior, but the Heavenly Jerusalem loves Him, being all they who are "born again" of God's Holy Spirit, and are being "gathered into God's "Garner" ever since Pentecost.

The 8th beast, which is of the seven, will be a
Global Economic Empire.
The clue that it will be economic, is shown in Rev. 13
[16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
[17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

The mark is for individuals.
The name is for governments.
The number is for businesses.

This world has always attacked Israel ! for it is as Jesus said, this world is Full of Deceptions and Delusions !

Israel is the Servants of God !

The State that this world calles Israel is a deception and a delusion in fact !

Only truly born again people are worthy of Christ Jesus in fact ! for they are Israel in fact !

The power of the Jews ? that is the real issue ! and what Jews ? and all the rest of such dealings ?
But who ever thinks they are going to take on the Jews, will not win ! for they have it all sown up in fact. only the issue of who is who regarding the Jews ? for their is the real issue. if you understand that then you have some grounds to understand what is going on.

If the world mess with the Jews look out ! such they ? can make any Nation crash badly as easy as pie in fact, who are in debt !

If you have a Nation that has no debt problems you have power ! but if you have a Nation that is a Slave to debt you are a No body Nation in fact !

In Australia we took on Arab money to serve out Debt ! so now they own us ? now one may debate this but bottom line is that, that is the thin edge of the wedge and the more they have over your Nation, then your Government become slaves to them idiots ! so that's why we see out Governments dominated by such as them and what they want ! so as not to offend them !
So we now see the Australian Government totaly Islamic groveling like a mongrel dog !
The Government does not serve the Australian people truly at all ? their key daddy is to make Islam happy or else they will not find favour with them, especialy the Left Governments !

Not to mention their is a Jewish Islamic brotherhood going on and it's a Lefty Mob in the main with greed driven wealthy far right wing RINO's etc and Freemasons and Jesuits are all in bed with each other, not all but their is a strong brotherhood pushing agenders in fact that are Evil ! They push like hell to get it all their way tho, one can clearly see that. Ex Australian PM M Turnbull is a key one in Australia, he is a god ? nothing can stick to that bastard for the whore Media have his back ! he is the biggest Rat down here. Obama is the biggest Rat in the USA and all of his crew.

Why are they undermineing the Jews ? well it's not that but what type of Jews are they trying to undermine in fact ! Worthy Jews of God that are the back bone of a healthy Democracy in the State ! That's who they clearly want out in fact !
For they want a Socialist, what they claim is a Democracy, a sick unhealthy bastard form of dictatorship that dominates over the people and promotes filth ! that promotes ignorance and stupidity !
