Yes but Prophecy is very often fulfilled in more than one time. Some events repeat like a pattern in history. God writes on the world and on human history not just in the pages of a book.

Assyria invaded Israel for a second time in 701 BC. The Assyrian army made it all the way into southern Israel just outside the city limits of Jerusalem and was led by King Sennacherib. You can read about it in Isaiah 36 & 37. The narrative speaks of the 701 BC invasion but also prophecies end time events. Isaiah 10 is another good chapter concerning Assyria which speaks of contemporary events interwoven with future prophecy.

Remember much of ancient Assyria lies in modern Iraqi territory. The the empire was larger than Iraqi borders today but the ruins of the ancient capital city, Nineveh are still there near Mosul. There is every [biblical] reason to believe this region will be the centre stage of end-time events.

Look to a person as Nimrod was" the FIRST Assarian King. Grandson of Noah.

If there's a spiritual Babylon involved (I think it is), then why can't there be a spiritual Assyrian?

Spiritual Babylon??????you think the Mystery Babylon is spiritual only? In the Bible, God uses Mystery as a way to tells us of a change in plans. Look up Mystery...Everytime He is announcing something NEW>

The reason I say that is because the religious belief system of Babylon such as the queen of heaven is prevalent everywhere, not Just in Iraq.

When Revelation says "Babylon the great has fallen", It doesn't mean modern Iraq.

Yes, your talking about Mystery Babylon. Although not Spiritual in the strictest sense, Babylon a physical place will fall in a short time after the 2nd half of Daniel' 70th week. In my Mind, it is Vatican City.

I used to believe that, till I heard all our US presidents referring to the "New World Order"

Before you can have a New World Order, you must first have a "New World".

The US is the only country named "The New World"

Look at how they're already running things in other countries.

I do, however, think the Pope would make an excellent False Prophet.

That's my $.02.

Rubbish.
The New World referred to all of North America and South America,
along with the Caribbean.
And later to Australasia.
New Britain; New Guinea; New Caledonia; New South Wales; New Zealand;
New Holland ...

Yes, I don't know if I sound like a broken record but I try to remind my Christian bros that the focus of Bible prophecy has a Middle East outlook. (and mindset) The view is not just on the Middle East but FROM that region. The prophets regard that area as the centre of the world, not America or Europe. The outlook is from Israel as if you were there viewing the happenings of the nations all around you.

This is why overlooking Islam is a mistake because it has been the major player in the Middle East for 1400 years, it resides regionally over all the Nebuchadnezzar statue empires and it isn't going away.

With so many refugees coming from that area I wanted to ask if you believe the anti Christ will gain his power in the region or just be born there?

Assyria conquered the 10 northern tribes of Israel and lead them into captivity in 722 B.C. with the book of Micah being written between 735 B.C. and 700 B.C. it fits. The Babylonians conquered the Assyrians in 612 B.C. Then the Babylonians came and conquered the two tribes of Judah in 597 B.C. So the idea that the 10 tribes of Isarel are still lost is non-sense, with Assyria being conquered by the Babyloians that united the 10 tribes of Israel with the two tribes of Judea once Babylon conquered the two tribes of Judah.

Your assumptions are all wet. History debunks most everything you said. The Assyrians carried the ten Northern tribes into Europe. They then settled into the area around Austria and Southern Germany. :cool:

I must point this out......it is not Mystery Babylon.....

It is ---> Mystery ,Babylon, that mega city <---called that MEGA CITY 6 times.....The COMMAS are present and often overlooked

It is a yet FUTURE CITY that was a Mystery to JOHN when he writes Revelation....and to NOTE he KNEW of ROME so IT CANNOT be ROME

And what great city today reigns over all the worlds kingdoms (Revelation 17:18)?
Whose economic policies they all follow?
And when its stock market crashes, all the other worlds kingdoms stock markets follow?

Revelation 17:18 [FONT=&quot]And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.[/FONT]

He opposes Christ. He sets himself up against Christ. He denies the father and the son. ANTI -Christ.

Babylon is the prostitute. Meaning in Biblical terms, false religion. She's the religion that rides the beast empire and she is drunk on the blood of Christians.
