New King of the North (PW12)

         Prelude to World War 3
Dan 11:30  "For ships from Chittim shall come against him; therefore he (king of the North) shall be grieved,  and return in rage against the holy covenant, and do damage. So he shall return and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant."

he (Ayatollah Ali) shall be grieved
    The Iranians know that their outdated and inferior arsenals will be decimated by Israel and the invincible US fleets and warships of the West, still they are sent to their defeat.  Why?
  The Shia Twelvers believe that the Mahdi (their saviour) will come to rescue them from annihilation. 
   It grieves Ayatollah to witness their defeats and millions of innocent Iranian civilians bombed, maimed and killed by the enemies.  
   To further the US' objective of regime change, Ayatollah Ali and the Iranian leadership will be hunted down and killed.

return (from death)
  After Ayatollah Ali is apprehended and killed and before the West can appoint the new Iranian Supreme leader (Ayatollah), Satan is cast down to earth. During the live broadcast of the funeral service of Ayatollah Ali viewed by the whole world, Satan will make use of the dead body of Ayatollah Ali (or a respected Imam) to incarnate to become the new Ayatollah (Endtime Antichrist or Mahdi). The whole Islamic world will marvel  follow him.
Rev 13:3  And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marvelled and followed the beast.

Is the West, comprising the US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, still Christian?
   For a century, the West refers to a group of rich Christian nations, which include US, EU, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. 
   Even though God and the Bible were taken out from the administration and public schools since 1962, the Christian culture remains.
   However, after legalizing homosexuality and same sex marriages, which were abominations to the Lord, the new demonic Woke culture (promoting homosexuality, same sex marriages and children are genderless) started by Obama is forced upon the people.    
    All those who reject this unnatural and demonic Woke culture were persecuted. Muslims and others, who were told to accept and assimilate to this Woke culture, assumed wrongly that it is a Christian culture. Faithful Christians suffered much during this period.
   The West also uses the UN Human Rights to force the rest of the world to accept this abominable Woke culture.
   It is sad to see that the faithless and abominable West is still considered Christian (holy covenant) by the Muslims and the rest of the world.

Persecutions of Christians

in rage against the holy covenant
   So when the Antichrist (new king of the North) called 'Jihad' the Islamic holy war against Christians and the powerful West (Christian nations) with the war cry 'Allah is great' (Allahu Akbar),  Muslims worldwide will respond and revolt against their own countries.
  With the killing of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iranian Muslim civilians, Muslims living in the West and their sympathizers will be so devastated that they will sabotage and destroy their adopted countries.

God's Judgment of the Church
1 Pet 4:17a   For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God;
   I believe God will use the coming World War 3 to cleanse His house of tares (savage wolves and hypocrites).
  All unrepented Christian leaders who are heretics, worldly, carnal, merciless, unloving, etc. will be killed.
Mat 13:40-42  Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Brethren, repent now for it is the eleventh hour. If not, you will be judged as tares, killed and cast into the Lake of fire.
