The upheaval we are seeing in the middle-east and even in the entire world, is the result of many conflicting religious factions who disagree with each other. These “religious” groups which are all well documented in God’s Word, The Bible, have well been explained in the holy Scriptures, which also states the final destination of this world, which will arrive because God has sent His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, and accurately predicted His coming, life, ministries, death crucifixion, burial, resurrection and coming glorious everlasting Kingdom! Today’s message takes a glimpse at all this and looks forward to the time “When All The Glory Of Jesus Is Revealed”
