Did the prophet Zechariah and Apostle John see what Vladimir Putin is threatening — nuclear war?

There have been several recent reports of the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, threatening to use nuclear weapons if the West tries to intervene during Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Putin is becoming increasingly embarrassed and even frustrated by his army’s inability to conquer the much smaller Ukraine, which is putting up a much stronger fight than expected. In a statement released on Thursday, Feb 24, 2022, Putin intimidated that the nuclear option was on the table if Western countries interfered with Russia’s invasion. “Whoever tries to hinder us, and even more so, to create threats to our country, to our people, should know that Russia’s response will be immediate,” Putin said. “And it will lead you to such consequences that you have never encountered in your history.” More recently, a senior Russian newscaster, Dmitry Kiselyov, was more blatant as he spoke of Russia’s nuclear arsenal on a recent broadcast as a warning to the US and any country that would try to intervene on Ukraine’s behalf. “Our submarines can shoot more than 500 nuclear warheads,” Kiselyov …

Is Vladimir Putin trying to revive the old Soviet Union?

Blinken made the remarks in an interview with CBS News managing editor Norah O’Donnell. When asked by O’Donnell if the U.S. had any specific intelligence indicating Putin will advance beyond Ukraine, the nation’s top diplomat shrugged off the question, suggesting it’s obvious.

Joining together in praying for Ukraine

Several years ago, I had the opportunity to attend a service at a Ukrainian Orthodox church. Having come from an Evangelical background, there was one thing that I found very unusual. Even though the church was based in North America, as the priest performed various rituals, he prayed for the military at least three or four times during that one service. I can’t remember a time during an Evangelical service when someone actually prayed for the military. This is not to say it didn’t happen, but it never caught my attention like it did that morning. But it shouldn’t surprise anyone. For a church that finds its roots in Ukraine, it reflects the country’s deep insecurity, as it has been the target of war and occupation by megalomaniacs and tyrants for centuries. People still remember Josef Stalin’s forced starvation of millions of Ukrainian farmers under the country’s brutal occupation by the former Soviet Union after it supposedly rescued Ukraine from its occupation by Nazi Germany. So, the church prays for the country’s military. And today, …
