"I'm gonna speak softly, but carry a BIG STICK!!!"

I have been reading the Left Behind series lately as well as the Are We Living in the End Times? book by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins and have to come to some interesting conclusions about current events and end times prophecy:
War in Iraq? Hmmm. The rebuilding of Babylon? An even BIGGER HMMM. Sounds familiar. Sounds like something I've read about in prophecy.
In his book, Are We Living in the End Times?, Tim Lahaye points out that the Bible makes it very clear that Babylon will be destroyed twice and rebuilt twice and then destoyed once and for all during the Great Tribulation. Tim LaHaye also speculates (on page 142) that Saddam Hussein may very well be the forerunner of the Antichrist.
Long after the destruction of Babylon by the Roman Empire in A.D. 70, Saddam Hussein began rebuilding his own country in 1971. So Babylon has been destroyed and rebuilt once in history.
But as I speak Babylon is being destroyed yet again, by coalition forces in the Persian Gulf and must again be rebuilt. After that it can only be destroyed once more once and for all time. If that is true, then who must rebuild Babylon? I believe that it is the Antichrist himself! He will rebuild it to be the most technologically advanced, earthquake-proof, modern city in the world!
Who is the Antichrist? From Daniel 9:26-27 we learn that the Antichrist is of Roman decent and must come from one of the eastern Mediterranean countries. He may very well fulfill many, but not all, of the prophecies for "Messiah." But He is NOT the Messiah! For those who are Left Behind, I say to you, "Beware of the One who comes to power in the world after the Rapture. For He will rule the world through diplomacy, through a false peace. He will be killed by a sword and rise from the dead at the mid-point of the Tribulation. Do not trust Him for Satan will indwell in Him!"
The point is, we must be ready for the rapture to come anytime after Saddam Hussein's successor comes to power in Iraq. For in that position, his successor will be in the perfect place to become secretary-general of the U.N. and create a one-world government after the rapture. He will sign a treaty with Israel gauranteeing her saftey and allow the Muslim Dome of the Rock holy site to be moved so that the Jews can rebuild their temple there. Possibly sometime during the Tribulation Russia and her Arab allies may attack Israel, but Israel will be supernaturally protected.
Oh! We must be ready! If you haven't already accepted Christ as your savior, do it now before it is too late! And if you have already accepted Christ as your savior, perhaps you should do it again to be rest assured. For no one in their right mind will want to live through the terrible judgements of the 7-year Tribulation. For those of you who wish to be saved, say this little prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I confess that I have sinned against heaven and in your sight and need forgiveness. Thank you for sending your son Jesus to die on the cross for my sins, according to the scriptures, and I thank you for raising him from the dead. Today I ask Him to come into my heart to cleanse me from my sin and become my Lord and Savior. I give myself to you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Now go find a Church so that you can fellowhship with other Christians. And remember, "Go and sin no more!"
The rapture could occur only months from now, or even weeks. As it says in the Bible, no one knows the hour in which Christ will come and no one should guess the hour in which Christ will come. But we can guess the season. And I believe the season is this season! Here! Now! It may not be long before the believers are all in heaven! SO BE READY FOR THE LORD!!! 
"He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming quickly." Amen. Even so, come Lord Jesus! The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen." --Revelation 22:20-21

Dan 9:26-27
After the sixty-two 'sevens,' the Anointed One will be cut off and will have nothing. [8] The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.
He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' [9] In the middle of the 'seven' [10] he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing of the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him. [11] " [12]
I'm not sure how you get this from these particular passages.

Why is today any different from any other?
Mark 13:32-37
The Day and Hour Unknown
"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard! Be alert[6] ! You do not know when that time will come. It's like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
"Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back--whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to everyone: 'Watch!' "

See....a bit out of context but I got the jest right.
