Russia, North Korea to test fire new missiles
Russian Colonel General Vladimir Popovkin said today that the Russian military will conduct at least five tests of the Bulava nuclear missile this year. This is an important weapon for the Russians to have at their disposal because the submarine-launched missile carries six independently targeted warheads, which means any missile defense shield employed by the United States or other western nations would be rendered useless.
At the midpoint of the Tribulation, Russia will lead a confederation of Arab and former Soviet controlled nations (Psalm 83:4-5; Ezekiel 38:8, 16) against Israel (Ezekiel 38:15; Luke 21:20). At this time Russia will probably launch a sneak attack (Jeremiah 50:24, 51:12) against the United States (Jeremiah 50:9, 41; 51:48) using precision missiles (Jeremiah 50:14, 29; 51:3, 11).
Meanwhile, North Korea is now threatening to test new missiles and nuclear technology, and to commence a new uranium-enrichment program. North Korea is one of the “kings of the east” who joins with China (Revelation 16:12) to form a 200 million man army (Revelation 9:16) that marches down the Euphrates River (Revelation 9:14, Isaiah 11:15) to the Middle East after Russia is beaten back during its invasion (Joel 2:20; Ezekiel 39:6). During this Chinese-led invasion nuclear weapons will be used (Revelation 8:7; 9:18).
Russia and China are the key players in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, which will be the main nemesis of the Antichrist during the first half of the Tribulation (Daniel 11:44). The Southeastern Anatolia Project will make it possible to dam the waters of the Euphrates so that this massive army can march down it on dry land (Isaiah 11:15).
