A Foretaste (Part I)


"Immediately after two Russian Tu-160 strategic bombers returned from Venezuela to their base in the Saratov region, a convoy of combat ships from the Northern Fleet set sail for the Caribbean. Why?" (link)


Close to two months after the Russian-Georgian conflict, Russian forces are still in Georgia. There is a tense peace as the world watches to see what Putin and Medvedev will do with an Oct 10 deadline for the Russian forces to pull back (link).


Russia looks to force the west to go it alone in it's contention with Iran on their nuclear program (link), rejecting any new measures (link), saying it was not urgent (link).


The war of words between the U.S and Russia continued when the world community came together at the U.N. General Assembly, with Russia seeming to have the upper hand in the eyes of the world.


Why are we witnessing this sudden chutzpah from the Russian bear?


We are getting a foretaste of things to come! Revelation 13 describes the rise of the antichrist within a world system that has Russia as it's foundation. It will be a group of 'united nations' that no longer has the U.S. as the power broker but will have the EU and Russia at it's center of power.
