The following report is an official statement from Pentagon Press Secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder:
At the direction of the President, Secretary Austin authorized the deployment of a Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) battery and associated crew of U.S. military personnel to Israel to help bolster Israel’s air defenses following Iran’s unprecedented attacks against Israel on April 13 and again on October 1. The THAAD Battery will augment Israel’s integrated air defense system.
This action underscores the United States’ ironclad commitment to the defense of Israel, and to defend Americans in Israel, from any further ballistic missile attacks by Iran. It is part of the broader adjustments the U.S. military has made in recent months, to support the defense of Israel and protect Americans from attacks by Iran and Iranian-aligned militias.
This is not the first time the United States has deployed a THAAD battery to the region. The President directed the military to deploy a THAAD battery to the Middle East last year following the October 7th attacks to defend American troops and interests in the region. The United States previously deployed a THAAD battery to Israel in 2019 for training and an integrated air defense exercise.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
The Associated Press noted in a report: ‘The delivery of the sophisticated missile defense system risks further inflaming the conflict in the Middle East despite widespread diplomatic efforts to avoid an all-out war. The Iranian warning came in a post on the social platform X long associated with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, who noted the earlier reports that the U.S. was considering the deployment.’
This is clearly yet another step towards this war escalating, though I think we all already knew this was a formality to begin with…

Mark 13:7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. [8] For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Could this be the start of the prophesies of Obediah? Could Iran be Teman in verse 9.
Interesting times to be alive.
I’m so hoping to be out of here before next year, and as I said before, it would be great to be out of here before the election, but it’s getting pretty close, so let’s pray we are. There is NO good news anymore, except of course the good news that Jesus has for us. Hope to see you all soon, brothers & sisters.
where will you go? there is no safe place other than a deserted island if even that is safe
She’s talking about the rapture, which all of us saved Christians believe in (though I believe there are some years still before this happens):
1Thess 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1Thess 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1Thess 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
If you’re curious:
Oops, I was meaning to post a playlist link. But the list is up there, above on the right side, beside “share”.
This is a wake up call for all of us, myself included.
We as truly saved King James Bible believers are going to be moving into our mansions very soon and I for one look forward to that.
If we’re backslidden, slacking or lacking in any area, struggling with our flesh, or anything causing us drawbacks:
1) repent and come home
2) focus on the blessed hope we have and that we’re going to be caught up
3) read the King James Bible – at least a chapter a day.
4) walk circumspectly and be sober and vigilant.
5) do whatever you can for God – street preaching, laying tracts, making videos et cetera.
Get cleaned up and wash yourselves with the word because as the Bride of Christ – that’s us, like any bride, she gets cleaned up and readies herself for her bridegroom. We don’t want to be caught up while slacking off or being backslidden.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Revelation 16:15
