In this present age, the media is dominated by numerous evangelists who interpret bible prophecy through newspaper headlines. Their main theme or topic is typically twofold:
1) The nation of Israel's biblical right to settle in the land they now occupy
2) What we are seeing in the Middle East is in fact the fulfillment of biblical prophecy

But is this really the case? Or is there another explanation? To answer these and other questions, we must rely on the truth as revealed in scripture alone (I Corinthians 2:12-16, Daniel 2:20-23) and not subjective comparisons drawn between newspaper headlines, and Old Testament prophecy. Hence, the purpose of this treatise is to examine through the lens of scripture, some of those alternative views.
