"Psalms 83 Timeline Question."



 

I have been reading the book: Psalm 83 The Missing Prophecy Revealed  by Bill Salus.

I was doing fine until pages 150-151.

 

He makes the following statements.

 

Concerning Ezekiel 39: 9-10.

 

“These Ezekiel verses suggest that Israel will possess the know-how to convert the advanced enemy weapons of mass destruction possessed by the Ezekiel 38 invaders into fuel, perhaps for heating, electricity, and other related energy needs. Israelis appear to utilize these weapons for energy consumption for a period of seven years. This will be no problem during the peaceful first half of the tribulation, but not likely during the perilous second half, because the Jews will be fleeing for their lives, rather than harnessing this energy”.( Matthew 24:15-22)

 

“Therefore, many scholars suggest that Ezekiel 38 and 39 must conclude, not commence, no later than three and one-half years before the seven-years of tribulation even begins. This allows the Jews seven full years to burn the weapons before they begin fleeing for their lives. Realistically, it will probably take approximately a year to even collect, dismantle, and convert the weapons cache prior to that. It’s even possible that there are more than seven years’ worth of weapons available for fuel consumption, but the conversion

process abruptly halts at the midpoint of the Tribulation when the abomination of desolation occurs.”

 

…”consider an additional seven-year span to burn the weapons…add in the final three and one half years of Great Tribulation, for a total of eleven and one-half years.”

 

…”After the Ezekiel invasion Israel may have ten or more years for all we know. But one thing seems almost certain,

that at the mid-point of the Tribulation period when the genocidal campaign of the Antichrist is in full swing,

Israelis appear to be fleeing for their lives rather than converting enemy weapons into sources for fuel energy.”

 

So considering the above with (Isaiah 17) the destruction of Damascus, (Isaiah 19) Egypt’s fall,

the coming Tetrad moons followed by the blood moon 2018 all about to happen,

I am having a major problem putting this timeline together with a Rapture event.

My thinking time line was Isaiah 17, Jeremiah 49, Zechariah 12, Isaiah19, Daniel 9:27 then Ezekiel 38-39.

But now I have some doubts.

 

I would appreciate anyone’s insight into this topic or any comments from others that have read this book.

 

I know I hear his sandals coming,
